Liam's pov
We are in the middle of our where we are tour. It is midnight and I am still awake. I have been exhausted for a few days. I thought it was because of our crazy work schedule but I have woken up really nauseous. I wrap my arms around my sloshing stomach wishing Niall was laying with me instead of the bunk opposite me.
I lay down on my side trying to get rid of the nauseous feeling in my stomach before I know it I am throwing up on myself. I sit up so I don't choke. I gag again and throw up more over myself and the bed. I hear someone open their curtain. I gag again as my curtain opens. I hear Louis Doncaster accent "Li bud are you feeling ok?" I shake my head and throw up again I start crying and I say "I want Niall" Louis says "I'll wake him up for you" he goes over to Niall's bunk and shakes him awake.
After a few minutes I feel a hand on my back and a thick Irish accent "Don't cry babe. Let's get you changed and go and cuddle on the sofa" I nod slightly. Niall helps me out of bed and helps me change I say "What about my bed" Niall responds "Louis said he would clean it for you. Don't worry Li. Let's go and cuddle on the sofa" I nod and Niall leads me out to the sofa. He sits down and pats the spot next to him. I sit down next to him and cuddle into him "Ni I don't feel well" Niall responds "I know you don't babe. Do you think you might be sick again?" I shake my head. About five minutes later I say urgently "Niall I need to go to the toilet" Niall picks me up and carries me to the bathroom. Once we are there Niall puts me down and says "Would you like me to stay or wait outside?" I respond "Outside" he nods and leaves the bathroom. I pull down my trousers and boxers and I sit on the toilet. I whimper as a load of diarrhoea comes out of me.
Niall's pov
I hear Liam's whimper and something splashing in the water. I wince and say "Are you ok in there Liam?" He whimpers and responds "I don't know" I hear liquid hitting the floor. Liam says "Niall I need a bucket" I respond "Just coming Liam." I quickly grab the bucket and enter the bathroom and I put the bucket under his chin just in time for another round of vomiting. I gently rub his back. Once he is done he slowly stands up. I turn around to give him some privacy.
After a few minutes he says "Niall I'm done" I nod and turn around and say "Shall we go back to the sofa and cuddle?" He nods and says "What about the bathroom? There is vomit on the floor." I respond "Let's go and see if anyone is awake to clean it" we leave the bathroom and start to go to the main area of the bus. We bump into Harry and he says "Are you ok Liam?" He shakes his head and I say "I think he has the stomach flu. If you are going to the bathroom. You will need to step over a puddle of vomit on the floor. I'll clean it up once Liam is asleep" Harry says "I'll clean it. Liam is always clung to you when he is sick. You know he won't let you go even when he is asleep" I nod and I say to him "Thanks Haz. See you in the morning" Harry nods and we go our separate ways.
I lead Liam to the sofa and I say "Li could I take your temperature?" He nods and I take the thermometer and place it in his ear and press the button "38.2 not too high at the moment babe. Let's go to sleep" he nods. I lay us down and I gently rub my fingers through his hair. Soon he is fast asleep. I close my own eyes and fall asleep to Liam's soft snoring.
Harry's pov
After I finish cleaning the bathroom I quickly do my business and wash my hands. I go out to the main area of the bus and see Niall and Liam on the sofa both asleep. Niall is spooning Liam. I grab the blanket and put it over them. I smile and go into the bunk area. I get in my own bed and cover myself up and fall asleep myself.
The next morning Niall's pov
Liam is still asleep. I am on my phone as the bus door opens. Paul comes in and says "Why are you and Liam out here. I thought you would all be in bed still. Like you normally are when you have a busy day" I say "Liam is sick. He woke up being sick all over his bed. Louis cleaned it." Paul nods and says "What was his fever?" I respond "The last time I checked it was 38.2" Paul nods. Liam shoots up looking pale and projectile vomits on the bottom of Paul's trousers. Liam starts crying and I put a bucket under Liam's chin and he continues to throw up. Once he is done he looks over at Paul and starts sobbing. He manages to sob out "I'm sorry Paul. I didn't mean to do that" Paul says to Liam "Li it doesn't matter. I promise I am not mad. It is not your fault you are sick. I'm just going to get changed so I don't smell of vomit and to call management to let them know that Liam is really sick" I nod and Paul leaves the bus.
When Paul leaves the bus Liam says tearfully "I didn't mean to" I say to him "We know that you didn't Li. It is not your fault you are sick" he cuddles into me and says "I don't feel well" I gently rub his stomach and say "I know babe. You'll be better soon. Your tummy just wants to get rid of all the germs in your tummy" I feel Liam nod against my chest and I say "Do you want anything to eat?" I feel Liam shake his head against my chest. He says quietly "I am really not hungry. My tummy really hurts" I gently rub his stomach feeling it sloshing under my hand soon Liam is asleep.
A few minutes later Paul comes back on the bus and says "Management has said that Liam has to do all interviews planned for today. They don't believe that he is sick. I did tell them that Liam threw up on me." I sigh and say "He is going to hate the fact that he can't have the day off because he is sick so I'm going to let him sleep until we get there though. He is really not feeling well." Paul nods and says "That's fine Niall. I'll go and see if the other boys are getting up" I nod and Paul goes into the bunk room. Liam shifts slightly and buries his face in my chest.
Louis and Harry comes out and Louis says "How is he this morning? Paul said that management isn't letting Liam have the day off to relax and get better and he is trying to get Zayn up you know what he is like in the morning." I respond "He is not well. I don't know if Paul told you but he projectile vomited over the bottom of Paul's trousers" Harry says "Poor Liam. I don't think I have seen Liam so sick have you" I shake my head and say "I know. I haven't ether. I hate seeing him like this"
A few seconds later Liam whimpers in his sleep and shoots awake and he runs to the bathroom slamming the door behind him. I follow knowing that Liam will need some comfort afterwards. I hear liquid splashing into water and Liam whimpering. I say "Liam babe are you alright in there?" I hear him whimper again and he says sadly "No I'm having diarrhoea. Can you wait out there though please and don't go?" I say back to him "Of course I can babe" I lean against the wall and I wait for him to come out. Zayn comes towards the bathroom. "Morning Zayn. How are you?" he responds "Morning Niall. I'm tired how are you? Why are you waiting outside the bathroom for?" I respond "I'm good. I'm waiting for Liam, he is not well at all. He is experiencing diarrhoea at the moment" Zayn nods and says "I will wait in the living area then" I nod. Zayn goes into the living area.
A minute later I hear Liam crying out in pain I say to him "Are you ok Liam?" He says "Nooo myyy tummy huuurtts" I say to him "Do you want me to come in Liam?" Liam says "Yessss please" I open the door and walk in and close the door behind me. I see the heartbreaking sight of Liam sat on the toilet with tears covering his face I say to him "Do you think you are finished yet babe?" Liam shakes his head just as another load of diarrhoea comes out of him. I gently rub his back and I whisper comforting words in his ear "I think I'm finished now." I nod and give Liam some privacy as he cleans himself up.
After a minute Liam says sounding like he is close to tears. "Ni I wanna cuddle" I turn around and say "Come on then babe let's go and cuddle out on the sofa" Liam nods and I flush the toilet for Liam and I gently lead him out to the sofa. I sit down and Liam sits next to me and buries his face in my chest crying softly. I gently rub his sloshing stomach with one hand and I run my fingers though his hair with the other knowing that it will put him to sleep. Soon I hear soft snoring.
About 15 minutes later Paul comes back on the bus "Sorry boys it's time to get to the interview" I sigh and say "Do I have to wake Liam? He's only just fallen back asleep about 15 minutes ago. I don't really wanna wake him if it is not necessary to" Paul sighs and says "Management wants you to go in though the front entrance by where the fans are. I'm really sorry boys" I respond "It's not your fault Paul. I'll wake him now" I gently run my fingers through his hair "Li babe wake up" he whines but he opens his eyes "I wanna sleep. I don't feel well" I rub his back and say "I know babe I know. I'm sorry babe we need to get to an interview through the fans" I see Liam's eyes well up with tears "I don't wanna go. I feel sick" I rub his back and and say "I know Li. Let's just get the interview over with then you can go back to bed yeah" he says "Is it live" I nod and say "Yeah it is Liam, lets get the interviews over and done with yeah" he nods and sits up. I stand up and help Liam up "Come on then Lili let's go" he nods.
We slowly leave the bus. I make sure that Liam is the side that the fans can't get to. Once we are inside Liam says "Nini sick" I quickly lead him to the bathroom. He crashes down on his knees and throws up a thick stream of vomit. I gently rub his back. He throws up twice more before he leans on me and wipes his mouth "Oh babe you look really sick" he nods and says sounding really sad "I feel really sick too. I just wanna sleep now Nini" my heart breaks for him "Let's get this interview over with then you can sleep again" He nods and I help him up. We go over to get our hair done. Lou spots us "Come on you two you are the last two to get your hair done" I nod and lead Liam to the chair. Lou starts to do his hair. She says "Are you ok Liam? You are very quiet and you look pale and you feel warm" he shakes his head and says "I feel really sick. Management isn't letting me sit out of interviews. I'll be fine though"
About half way through the interview still Niall's pov
Liam looks like he is about to throw up. He is looking a paleish green colour. I gently rub his back as he keeps his mouth tight shut. He looks over at me with tears in his eyes and he wraps his arms around his stomach "Liam you are being quiet today. How is the tour going so far?" He swallows "It's going good" he swallows again and he gags slightly before he continues. "We are all enjoying the tour" he shuts his mouth tight again.
A few minutes later Liam places a hand over his mouth and gags I gently rub his back and he quietly burps sickly and he brings up some vomit in his hands. He throws up again and it starts to seep out of his hands. He removes his hands and he places his hand on his trousers. He throws up again before tears start to make their way down his face. The interviewer says "Um the interview is over" I nod and say gratefully "Thank you"
I lead Liam to the dressing room and I say to him "Why didn't you tell me you felt more sick?" He shrugs and says "We were having a live interview." He starts crying. I say "hey what's wrong" Liam responds "I was sick on live tv everyone will know and I probably ruined our reputation and your career will be over" I say to him "Li babe everyone is sick at some point in their life. We are human too. Anyways because you threw up on live tv management will have to give you the rest of the day off. If you don't I will fight them to get you the day off. Let's get you back into comfy clothes yeah" he nods and I help him out of his vomit covered clothes and help him into some comfy clothes.
A few minutes later management come through the door. "Liam why did you throw up on live tv?" I see Liam's eyes well up with tears and he says "I feel really sick. I think I have the stomach flu" our manager looks at me and I say "It is true. Let Liam have the rest of the day off and let me stay with him otherwise we will leave the management and sue you for not taking care of us" our manager glares at me and says "Fine. You can go back to the hotel that you had booked for the next week" I smile and Paul walks into the room as management walks out "What did they want?" I say "They gave me and Liam the rest of the day off and we can go back to the hotel" Paul nods and says "The other boys are in the van. Let's get you and Liam back to the hotel." I say to Liam gently "Let's go babe we can go back to the hotel" Liam nods and I help him to stand up. I slowly help Liam to the van and we sit down. I help Liam to strap in and then I strap myself in and allow Liam to lean into me. With in seconds he falls asleep. I smile down at him
Once we are back at the hotel I gently carry Liam up to our room after signing in. I carefully unlock the door and push it open. I go over to the bed and gently lay Liam down in it. I lay down next to him and hold him close to me. He smiles in his sleep as I gently rub his stomach.
About an hour later Liam wakes up and runs to the toilet slamming the door behind him. I go after him and knock on the door "Liam babe are you ok in there?" I hear him whimper and he says sadly "No I am having diarrhoea." I say to him as comfortingly as I can through the door "Do you want me to wait out here or in bed for you?" He responds "Wait out there please" he groans as I hear liquid splashing into the water. My heart breaks for him. After a few minutes he comes out and rests his head on my shoulder "Are you ok now babe?" He shakes his head sadly "I wanna cuddle" I say to him "Let's get you to bed and cuddle yeah" he nods and I lead him to our bed and we lay down and I allow Liam to cuddle into me. I gently rub his stomach and say "Go back to sleep babe" he nods and closes his eyes.
A few days later no one's pov
Liam feels better after two days and he is back at work. All the boys are happy Liam is feeling better.
