The whole band kept pacing in the waiting room ignoring the fans who were gushing at them. Louis kept tapping his leg impatiently. They had been waiting for thirty minutes and no one knew what was happening.

"What is going on?!" Louis yelled in anger dragging his hair in frustration.  Harry hugged him around his shoulder trying to calm him down. Finally, a doctor came in holding a clipboard.

"Who is here for um...Natalia?" They all jumped up eagerly shocking the man. "Oh...um...I'm Dr. Leila and I'm treating Natalia. We had to run a lot of tests on her and I'm afraid the outcome wasn't good."

"Just tell us, please." Harry pleaded.

"Natalia has...epilepsy." Everyone froze in shock at the new discovery. "She's in room 207. I'll come to check on her in a few. I'm very sorry."

She left the boys as they moved towards Natalia's room. Liam opened the door slowly and went in first. Natalia lay on a bed attached to some wires and drips. She looked fully awake and very scared. Louis was the first to rush to her side.

"Louis." She whimpered as Louis stroked her hair which was no longer packed. "Am I...dying?"

"Did your parents ever say anything about you being very sick?" Harry asked.

"Yeah. They said it's...um...elipsy?"

"Epilepsy." Zayn corrected her. "You're not dying, not on our watch."

"I don't want to stay here." She cried trying to pull off a wire on her arm. "I don't want to stay here!"

"Sshh." Louis hushed her kissing her forehead. "We'll leave soon, I promise."

"Do I still get my ice-cream?" She asked sniffing. Liam held up a bag with a ice-cream tub. "Yeah!"

Dr. Leila came back in smiling. "Hello Natalia. How do you feel?"

"I wanna go!" She whined. "I'm not sick anymore."

Dr. Leila smiled a bit. "Sure, you can go home. But I need to advice you all to read up about epilepsy. She's going to notice some seizures and they will be different sometimes and terrifying. Luckily, she has only four and I've written them down and what to do when she has them."

"Thanks doc." Louis thanked her taking the paper from her. "When can she leave?"

"She can go now but someone needs to sign her out."

"I'll do it." Liam volunteers getting up and following her out. Natalia began to hum silently reaching out to play with Harry's hair.

"I'm sorry for um...not letting you practice." She apologised.

"It's okay Nat." Harry chuckled. "You're worth our time."

After signing her out, they decided to help he shop for cloths in a mall that their management had rented to them for an hour so that no one spotted Natalia.

"She'll like the black sweater." Louis said holding it up.

Harry rolled his eyes digging into the shoe rack and bringing out a pair of stylish brown boots. "No, this is better."

"Why not let Natalia decide." Zayn suggested leading Natalia up to them. She had a candy cane in her mouth which Niall had bought for her after a lot of whining. She looked at the two things they held up.

"Can I have both?" She asked looking at Louis with wide puppy eyes. Louis smiled fondly at her and nodded making her giggle. After buying literally everything she pointed out, they finally got to go home to know her better and read up about her seizures and disease.
