Louis POV

I woke up with my stomach hurting a lot. I tried to toss and turn, but the movement just made it worse. I cried out in pain, hopefully loud enough to get someone's attention. I was also shivering, the paracetamol not doing anything for my fever. Then Harry came to my side.

"Louis," He said empathetically, trying to calm me down, but pulling his hand back as he felt how warm I was. "Oh my gosh Lou, you are still burning up. Let me get the thermometer."

Before I had the chance to protest, Harry was already off. I was still crying because of how bad it hurt. He came back and took my temperature and it was high.

"Lou your temp is 102.3oF (39.1oC). That's really high and you are in a lot of pain. I think we need to go to the hospital. Hey Steve how much longer?" He asked our driver.

"Got about 15 minutes!" Steve yelled from the front.

"Can you head to the nearest hospital please?"

"Of course mate!"

"No Harry, I don't want to go to the hospital, I'm fine." I protested and tried to get up but the pain was too much.

"Lou no! I'm sorry but I'm putting my foot down. You are in too much pain, vomiting, a very high fever, and you can barely move. We are going to the hospital." Harry said. It came off as quite aggressive but he was right. I couldn't even move without it causing a huge amount of pain. The 15 minutes that it took to get to the hospital felt like years, but we got there eventually. Harry tried to lift me, but it hurt too much.

"OW! Harry stop please." I said grabbing his wrist, which caused him to put me down. "Go grab a doctor or something so they can help me."

"Liam and Niall went to get someone. Just try to relax."

"I can't relax!" I snapped, but the pain became too much and I started drifting in and out of consciousness.

"Lou stay with me." I could hear his voice, but it seemed so distant. He was slapping my face slightly, but I didn't even register it. "Fuck it."

He lifted me, carrying me bridal style out of the tour bus. I was so out of it at the moment that I could barely understand what was happening. The last thing I remember is Harry telling me that he loved me. Then it all faded to black.

Harry POV

After he yelled, Louis started drifting in and out of consciousness. I tried to slap him and make him stay awake, but he wasn't even registering my actions.

"Fuck it," I took him in my arms, not even caring at this point if he was in pain, because he just needed a doctor. As I carried him out the tour bus, Niall and Liam came running towards us, a doctor and a few nurses following behind with a gurney.

"What happened?" Niall asked with concern.

"He started drifting in and out of consciousness, so I just picked him up as he was completely out of it. Probably the fever and the pain combined." I placed Louis on the gurney and he stirred slightly, as he was still semi conscious, but he looked so out of it. They wheeled him into a room and began examining him. They started an IV and started to give him some meds before the doctor stopped them.

"No! He needs to be as aware as he can so I can see what's hurting." The doctor started pressing on his abdomen, which caused him to cry out in pain when he went over the lower right side. "Get me the portable ultrasound please."

The nurse handed him a small machine and went over the spot that was causing Louis the most pain. He gasped and gave the go ahead for the nurse to give him meds.

"Call up to the operating room, tell them we are coming with an emergency patient."

"The operating room? What-Why?" I asked, trying to get into the room, but Liam and Niall held me back.

"His appendix is about to burst, which explains his symptoms. We have to get him to surgery now to remove it before it can cause any damage. I'm sorry, but I have to go. A nurse will show you to the waiting room." the doctor took off, bringing Louis on the gurney right past them.

"I love you Lou."
