INJURED

Part 1

The boys are on the where we are tour in Dublin but niall gets injured. This is my first time writing so we'll just have to see how it goes!!

~NIALLS POV~

Today is the day I have been waiting for! The day we play Croke Park! I couldn't be more excited! One small problem though..... I feel horrible. I woke up early this morning, the day of the concert, at 5am with a horrible pain in my stomach. I put it off as nerves though and got up.

The boys and I were all staying in a hotel close to Croker, only about 10 minutes away. The minute I got up I felt like I was going to puke. I started worrying. I couldn't be sick! Not today. I couldn't let the fans or the boys down and I was so excited about playing Croker.

A wave of nausea passed through me. I sprinted to the bathroom and puked everything I had eaten the day before up in the toilet. I felt like crap. I knew I was sick but I couldn't let the boys know. I'd just have to get on with it. I refuse to let everyone down. I'll just act like my normal self and act like nothing's wrong.

It can't be that hard, right?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So now here I am in the stadiums bathroom puking up my breakfast that I forced myself to eat this morning, so the boys wouldn't get suspicious. I am very much regretting it now but it had to be done! We started sound check at 11am and now I'm here an hour later feeling worse than I was this morning. My stomach is killing me and I have a killer headache. I really just want to go to bed and sleep, but unfortunately that is not an option. I had just finished getting sick when I heard someone outside the bathroom door calling my name.

"Niall?" Liam called "Are you okay mate? You've been in there for like 10 minutes!" Shit! I thought. Think of an excuse.

"Yeh Liam I'm fine. I just got lost on the way to the bathroom." I said back and forced a chuckle mentally slapping myself. Who gets lost on the way to the bathroom that they've already been to a couple of hours before!? This is why I never lie, I'm terrible at it!

"Okay mate, just making sure! Hurry though, our break in almost over. Have you eaten yet?" Liam asked.

"Right I'll be out soon, and yes I ate something before I went to the bathroom" I lied, wincing. I hate lying to any of the boys but I had to. We still had two hours of sound check left and I didn't want to be getting sick on the middle of the stage. It would ruin everything!

"Right then, I'll leave you to it. Hurry back and don't get lost please!" Liam said chuckling but I could tell he was also serious.

"I don't plan on it Liam!" I shouted after him as I heard him leaving. I sighed in refief. I nearly blew it! If he would have come in a minute earlier he would have heard me getting sick and wouldn't let me go on stage and perform. I couldn't let that happen.

I quickly threw some water on my face an popped some gum in my mouth to get rid of the smell. I walked quickly back to the stage and saw all the boys huddled in a circle whispering to each other. When they saw me they all stopped and greeted me.

"Hey Nialler!" Harry said coming over over to me.

"Hey Haz!" I said back trying to sound carefree and happy but my head was pounding and my stomach felt just as bad, so I probably failed. I'm a singer not and actor! I saw Liam give Zayn a weird look, but I just shrugged it off and we started to rehearse again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Liam's POV

Niall looked very off today. He was really pale and way more quiet than usual. He was acting weird when I was talking to him in the bathroom and I just get a feeling that something is wrong with him. I talked to the lads about it after I left the bathroom while we were waiting for him on stage.

"Hey lads! Come here for a sec!" I shouted to them. They all came over to where I was standing.

"What's wrong Liam?" Zayn asked. "Oh and have you seen Niall?"

"That's what I wanted to talk about." I said. " I think he's sick, I think I heard him throwing up in the bathroom."

"Yeah he was looking a little pale" Louis said.

"Well, there's no way he's going to say anything to us about it so just keep an eye on him. Okay?" I asked just as I saw Niall walk on stage. We all nodded to each other. We greeted him and Harry walked over to Niall and started a conversation. He looked really pale, had bags under his eyes and looked like he was going to collapse. I exchanged a look with Zayn before we started to rehearse.

Niall's POV

Rehearsal went okay. Okay meaning I didn't throw up or faint. So yeah, it could have been worse. I think the lads have started to notice though. I try my best to act the same as I usually do but it's hard when all I want to do in curl of in a ball and cry. There is no way I'm letting our fans down though. They've nearly waited a year for today and I am so excited about it. I just wish I didn't feel like crap.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The time for the show came around quickly. 5 seconds of summer had just come of stage telling us how the crowd was amazing. I had a slight problem though. I felt like I was going to throw up or faint ,or possibly both. Not a good feeling right before you have to go on stage for a two hour concert.

The time came when we were on stage with over 80,000 fans screaming. Harry started singing the start of Midnight Memories. I felt like my head was going to explode. I was nearly crying in pain. I smiled as best I could and sang with the lads.

We were about half way through the concert when I started to get really dizzy. I was standing at the edge of the stage, squinting, trying to read all of the signs the fans made. I felt a shocking pain go through my head and my stomach turned. Black dots danced across my vision and I could feel myself swaying. No one noticed though cause Liam had just fell over and everyone was laughing. I could feel myself falling and fans let out terrified shrieks. I fell right off the stage and hit the ground hard before everything went black.
