-This message was sent three hours ago. Who knows what has happened?!-I said still shaking. I don't want to sound selfish, but this really ruined my big night.

-I don't know. That's why were going to London.-El said

-The signal here is really bad. I guess that's why we got the message now.- Perrie continued. We put all of our things in the car and rushed to the airport in less than 20 minutes. All flights to London were sold out so we had to take the plane to Crawley and a train to London. Harry sent Lou a voice message and I called my mom before boarding. After a few beeps the machine answered, so I left a message.

-Hi mom, it's me. Uhm...our friend's baby had to go to the hospital and now we're going to London so they wouldn't be alone. I don't know will I come back, but now we're boarding on the plane so don't call me. I'll send you a text when I get there. Bye, love you.- I was waiving at Lucy as she got swollowed by the darkness on the airport. Even though she never met Lux, she was still crying. Just like all Directioners will as soon as the word gets out. The whole trip was so quiet exept the occasional cry. Harry spent the whole time stairing out the window into the darkness. It was like his body was there but his soul was somewhere far away, like I didn't know him. When we arrived at London after an hour and a half driving, it was 8 o'clock in the morning UK time. Not long after that we were at the hospital searching for Tom and Lou. We couldn't find them so Zayn and Liam went to ask the clerk where they might be.

-Excuse me, but would you know where Tom and Lux Atkin and Lou Teasdale are?-Liam asked politely even though you could see it in his eyes that he was loosing his calm grip.

-I think that's them.-she pointed in the direction of the Child care deppartment.

-Thank you.-Zayn thanked the woman before going the way she told him. 

-So, where are they?-Perrie asked, but Zayn just kept walking straight ahead. As we peaked around the corner we saw Lou crying into Tom's shoulder. She turned arouned and I waiwed.

-Harry, Sara, Zayn... You're all here. Sorry I had to bring you all the way up here. We just couldn't go trough this alone.-

-Don't worry. It wasn't a problem.-I said and she smiled at me trough the tears. Lou reminded me of my mother with thar worried look in her eyes.

-So, how's Lux?-Harry asked

-Well she's much better than before. The doctors think it's lungmeria. They're keeping her in for observation.-Tom  continued-I'm really happy you came. Trough times like this you need to be with your family and you, all of you are family.-we sat down next to the two of them and I took my phone out to send mom a message, but the battery was dead.

-Great.-I sighed

-What is it?-Harry asked

-My phone's battery is dead. Now I can't send a text to my mom. She'll be so worried.-

-But didn't you leave a message before we left?-

-I did, but I bet she's worried. Moms do that. I can completely understand Lou. Lux's her whole life.-
