"Hi, Louis." Harry whispered, waking up his sleeping boyfriend. 

"Hi." Louis groaned, weakly. 

"How are you feeling?" Harry asked, fixing Louis' hair. 

"Not much pain right now." Louis groaned, giving a tiny smile. 

"That's because you are drugged up." Harry chuckled, holding Louis' hand. 

"I feel it." Louis giggled, a little drowsy, "How are you?"

"Exhausted." Harry yawned.

"You could have gone home." Louis giggled, softly. 

"No." Harry demanded, leaning in for a kiss, "There is no way I was leaving you." 

"Careful." Louis giggled, kissing Harry back, "Don't pull my IV out." 

"Sorry." Harry whispered, fixing Louis' hair, "That wouldn't have been good." 

"Nope." Louis smiled, "Unless you don't want me getting better?" 

"NO!" Harry protested, "I want you out of here as soon as possible."

"Then we better leave that in." Liam called out from the doorway. 

"Liam!" Louis cheered, with a cough. 

"How you doin'?" Liam asked, walking to Louis' side. 

"Better," Louis moaned, "but not by much." 

"Louis!" Niall called, following behind Liam. 

"Hi, Niall." Louis smiled, hugging him. 

"Hey, mate." Zayn called out, giving a hug to Louis. 

"Hi, Zayn." Louis chuckled, giving out the last hug. 

"You gonna be out of here soon?" Niall asked, hopeful. 

"I don't really know how soon, " Louis chuckled, taking Harry's hand, "but I'll try." 

"Touring is going to be different without you up on stage." Liam sighed, patting Louis' back. 

"Who said we are going on tour?" Harry asked, angrily. 

"The fans who bought tickets." Zayn reminded him, "Even without Louis we have a job to do." 

"But we aren't One Direction without him." Harry wined, "How are we-" 

"Shhh!" Louis smiled, interrupting Harry, "You will be fine. The fans will know I'm here and getting help. They will be fine. Yes it will be different, but it will be okay." he coughed, "We toured without Zayn before, remember?" 

"Yeah, but-" 

"Harry," Louis comforted, "you will be fine. I promise."

"Besides, Harry," Liam added, "tour doesn't start again for three more months. Who knows. By then, Louis could be healthy enough to come home." 

"I'm hoping that will be soon." Louis answered, trying to catch his breath. 

"You alright?" Harry asked, worried. 

"Yeah." Louis coughed, still struggling, "Just not used to broken ribs yet." 

"We will let you get your rest." Liam chuckled, "See you tomorrow, mate." 

"By, lads." Louis' waved, as Niall, Liam and Zayn left the room. 

"You know I need rest, right?" Louis asked, noticing Harry haden't left yet. 

"Yeah." Harry smiled, kissing Louis' hand. 

"Well," Louis continued, "you going to join the lads?"
