Louis walked out of the room before he started talking to the nurse who was appointed to Harry and was sitting outside. He let her know that one of his friend is with Harry right now because he was going to the washroom. The nurse informed him that she will check on Harry's vitals in a few minutes, to that Louis nodded his head and walked out of the ICU corridor.

When Preston and Paddy saw him coming out of Harry's room, they both rushed towards him. Louis looked at them with a small smile on his face as he walked into Preston's open arms.

" How is he ?" Preston asked.

" He's okay. Much better. Zayn's with him." Louis let him know before he hugged Paddy who was looking at him sadly.

" And how are you ?" Paddy asked rubbing Louis' back.

Louis pulled back from his hug and gave him a genuine smile followed by a nod.

" I'm relieved. He's okay and that's all what I needed."

Both of the older guys nodded there head to each other, before Preston and Louis started to walk towards the waiting room where all the people were, leaving Paddy to go and check on Zayn and Harry.

As soon as Louis walked inside the waiting room, he realized how tensed the atmosphere was in the room. Niall was sitting on a chair with his head in his hand. Luke was pacing back and forth in the room, with his finger nails between his teeth. Alberto and Basil were talking in a corner about something serious, according to the looks on their faces. Paul was no where to be seen.

" Lou !" Luke first noticed his presence in the room and ran towards him before hugging him as close as possible. Niall, Basil and Alberto's head whipped when he heard Luke. Niall walked with fast steps before he held both, Louis and Luke into his arms. Louis wasn't surprised at all. He knew how much both of the boys loved him, and if they didn't respond the way they did, he would have felt a little bit disappointed.

" He's ok guys, Harry's okay." Louis murmured, his face hidden into Luke's shoulder.

Niall breath out, feeling relieved. He was dreading for worst.

Louis sniffled, before they all pulled back. Louis looked at Niall who had his eyes glistening, before he wiped his tears.

" I got really scared." Louis' voice breaks, as he looked from one to another person standing in the room.

" When he stared to go into the cardiac arrest, I-I couldn't hold it anymore and I just felt like I would die any moment. " Louis' eyes start to spill the salty water. Niall shook his head before again engulfed him into his embrace, and that's when Louis broke down again.

Louis cried until his heart felt better, everyone else in the room remained silent. They all knew Louis was shaken up by what he witnessed in the ICU. Preston told them when he walked out of the ICU room, after Harry woke up.

" I'm not going to leave him ever, Niall. Never, ever. And that's why I'm not leaving hospital until he gets better." The last line Louis said pulling back from Niall, looking straight into Preston's eyes. Preston sighed but then he nodded his head, understanding what Louis was going through.

" Okay. " That's all Preston could say at the moment. He knew, debating with Louis was worthless.
