New Family, New Step-Brother, and Zayn (Zayn Malik Fan Fic)

Chapter 51: Hospital

--Zayn's POV--

"Zayn!" Ally called to me.

"Coming!" I called back and jogged upstairs.

I saw her sitting on the bed looking concerned.

"What's wrong babe?" I asked.

"I don't feel well." She said.

"What is it?" I asked. 

I crouched down next to her and put my hand on her knee. I was now very concerned because whenever she was sick, she just took some medicine and everything was alright.

"I don't know, like the room is spinning and like I'm having trouble breathing." She said.

"Breathing?" I asked.

I was suddenly very concerned.

"Yes, like I try to take a deep breath but it feels like I'm drowning." She said.

"Let's go." I said, aiding her up from the bed.

"Where are we going?" She asked.

"The hospital." I said, as if it wasn't obvious.

"I don't need to go to the hospital." She replied.

"You can't breathe, you need to go to the hospital." I said.

"No." She fought.

"I'm not listening to you right now. Niall!" I called to him.

A few seconds later he was in front of us.

"What's up?" He asked.

"Can you help me get Ally in the car?" I asked.

"Yeah, what's wrong?" He asked.

"She can't breathe and the room is spinning and stuff." I said.

"What is standing her up going to accomplish?" Niall asked.

"I'm taking her to the hospital!" I said.

"Oh okay." He said and helped me.

I strapped on her seatbelt and she started to yelp in pain.

"What? What is it Ally?" I asked in a panic.

"My ears are ringing and they hurt. Make it stop Zayn please." She pleaded.

"I'm trying. I'm trying." I said.

I hated how I was so powerless.

I drove to the hospital, full speed thinking of how I had to get her there on time.

Anything could be wrong with her, anything.

We pulled into the ER parking lot and I rushed to her side of the car to get her out.

"Zayn, I'm going to be sick." She warned.

I rushed her to a trashcan and almost instantly she vomited everything but her internal organs.

"Let's get you inside." I said.

I led her inside and the nurse quickly came to our aide.

"What's wrong with her?" She asked.

"She has shortness of breath, she's vomiting, she's dizzy, her ears are ringing…" I listed off all her symptoms.

They got her on a gurney and rolled her away from me.

I hated how I wasn't allowed in, so I slumped into a hospital chair. I tried to think positive and wait for any sort of news but they weren't coming out. They weren't calling for me to see how she was.

Two and a half hours later and still no one was coming. Right when I was about to walk up to the nurse's station and demand an update, the doctor came up.

"Allison Malik." He mispronounced our last name.

"Here." I stood up and walked towards him.

"I'm so sorry it took so long but we had to run some tests before we could diagnose her officially." He said.

"What is it? What's wrong with her?" I asked.

"She has Labyrinthitis. It's an irritation and swelling of the inner ear. It can cause vergo and hearing loss." He said.

What?

"Is it cureable? How did she get it?" My mind had so many questions and he wasn't giving me any answers.

"She might've caught it when she had a virus or flu. It is also triggered by stress as well though." He said.

"Is it cureable?" I repeated.

"Labyrinthitis usually goes away after a few weeks but it can affect her hearing. It can cause hearing loss. We will put her on some medications to lower the risk. We'll keep her overnight but other than that she should be fine." He said.

"Thank you so much." I replied.

He nodded and walked away.

I called Niall and filled him in, telling him I wouldn't be home until dark. He promised to take care of Ryan but I did worry.

I stood at the hospital all night and finally, they let me up to see her.

"Hey." She smiled.

"Hi babe." I replied.

"Thank you." She said.

"For?" I asked.

"Bringing me here." She said.

"You don't need to ever thank me for doing something to save you. You should know that by now." I said.

"I still want to thank you." She said.

We sat in the hospital room the rest of the night and I told her about her condition. She laughed and joked about how her immune system wasn't as tough as she thought. She fell asleep some time around ten and I squeezed her hand one last time before leaving. I whispered in her ear that I'd be back by morning and left.

I thanked the nurses and drove home to tell Ryan that Mommy was going to be okay.
