Liam's POV

The doctor looked down, and shook his head in disappointment.

I scrunched my eyes in disbelief. Is this doctor mad?! Aisha is fine! The doctor is gone nuts! I looked at Zayn, his eyes were red due to crying, they didn't had the shine they've always had. His face looked restless. In all, he looked devastated. "What do you mean?!" He yelled at the doctor. The doctor looked at him like he understood his situation.

"Can you come in my cabin? We need to talk.." He said. I stared at him for a while, and then nodded. "And someone fill the form please.." He added. I turned back and looked at the group.

Niall gave me an understanding nod. "I'll fill the forms." He said and left. I looked at Zayn's Mum, who was beside me.

"I think you should go with him.." I whispered to her. She looked at me and shook her head.

"No.. You should." She said, making my eyebrows furrow in confusion. "He won't be able to control his emotions if doctor said something.." She gulped and trailed off, not wanting to think about the word. "I know you can calm him down." She said hopefully. I nodded.

I kept my hand on Zayn's shoulder and nodded at the doctor. "We'll be there." I answered. He nodded and gave me a small smile. Zayn turned and looked at me. I could tell his anxiety was taking the worst of him right now. I could literally read his face. It was like he wasn't ready to hear whatever the doctor had to say, he was scared.

"I'm there with you bud.. Come on." I said, he hesitantly nodded in response. We walked behind the doctor and followed him to the cabin. Even I was scared. Ash was like my sister, and I could never afford anything bad happening to her.

"Take a seat, please.." He said. Both of us sat on the chairs. The silence was killing us. I was worried for Zayn. Aisha meant everything to him, he loved her more than anything. If something happened to her, he'd be lost.

"You wanted to talk about something?" I broke the silence. Zayn gave me a look. The look that clearly told me he didn't wanted to hear anything bad. Trust me, even I didn't wanted to. I gave him an assuring nod and looked at my front again.

"She survived the attack.." He said. I left a breath out in relief. "But.." He added, making my relief change to worry again. I could totally sense the tension in this room.

 "The injury in her head lead to internal bleeding and external bleeding as well. We had to do surgeries. It took more time than usual to stop it, because she was drugged too." He said again. I swallowed the lump in my throat. How could Rohan do this?! He had to pay for it!

"She is out of danger.. but not completely." He said again. My heart picked up pace. He was scaring us. "But, we're not sure if she's going to survive." He stated, looking down. My eyes widened in shock as I processed the words he said. Tears started brimming in them. I looked at Zayn, his reaction scared me more.

He was staring at the doctor with wide eyes, his eyes were filled with tears. I slightly shook him. He looked at me in shock.

"Is he gone mad?!" He exclaimed. He said the exact thing I was thinking. The doctor was insane. We shouldn't have brought Aisha here.

"Are you in your senses? Do you even know what you're saying?" I asked in an angry tone, facing the doctor.

"I'm saying the truth.. She can hardly-"

"Don't you dare say that!!" Zayn shouted as tears rolled down his cheeks. The doctor flinched.

"You didn't treat her properly! We're taking her to another hospital.." I said in a shaky voice. It was hard to believe she was suffering through so much. She was a carefree and happy soul. Zayn was shaking beside me. I rubbed his shoulder to calm him down.

"If you go anywhere else, you'll get the same result. So it's better if you stay here. Because her condition is degrading. We're trying to keep her alive." The doctor answered. I rubbed my face in frustration. Whatever was happening, it wasn't right. It was neither Aisha's fault, nor Zayn's.

We stayed silent for a while. I was putting my everything to keep myself stable. Zayn wasn't able to speak, he was still in shock. How would he be fine? His love was fighting for her life. I took a deep breath and decided to kill the silence.

"So.. What now?" I asked cold-heartedly. I didn't wanted to keep the hopes down. She will come back.

"All we can do is wait... If she has the will to live, her condition will improve. Her health is degrading, and according to that we have hardly four days. She has to give us some sign in these four days. If not, she can go into a coma too." He said. I gave him an hesitant nod and looked at Zayn. He was worrying me, his expressions were blank. It was hard to tell if he was angry, scared or sad.

"She.. she is strong. She will definitely wake up." He said, shaking his head, trying to convince himself. I found a ray of hope too, she was strong. She loved Zayn, she would definitely have the will to return, for him. They wanted to spend their lives with each other, she will come for that.

We looked at the doctor as he sighed. His face showed tension. "Maybe, she was strong." Was.. "But, drugs make people lose their will power. I fear this can be difficult. If her condition doesn't improve, I'm afraid we might lose her." He said. My heart shattered. This cannot happen! She's not going anywhere!!

"SHUT UP!! YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING! " Zayn yelled as he got up from the chair and banged his fist on the table. He was still crying. I knew he was heartbroken, but he had faith in his love. I had too. I believed their love was strong enough to overcome this situation. He stormed out of the cabin, I ran behind him.

"Zayn! Wait!!" I held his shoulder and turned him around. His eyes were redder than before. He looked defeated. I hugged him. He instantly wrapped his arms around me and started sobbing. Even I was crying, I couldn't see Aisha and Zayn like this. They didn't deserve it.

"Zayn.. We have to stay strong mate.." I said in a low tone. But I wasn't strong enough too.

"You expect.. me to.. stay strong? I-I want her back.. I want.. my Aisha back... I'm s-scared Liam.." He said through his sobs. I rubbed his back to calm him down. His words made me cry more.

I pulled away as his sobs died down. He wiped his tears and looked at the ground nervously. I held his shoulders, lightly squeezing them. "She is going nowhere. She is gonna get well soon. Love cannot be defeated, mate. You both love each other, we love her too. She'll fight for us, for you." I said, trying to convince him. He thought for a moment and nodded. I could tell he was fighting back his tears.

"I cannot tell them. Will you? Please?" He asked hopefully, his voice barely above a whisper. I nodded.

We went towards the group. All of them were equally tensed. Trisha was on the verge of crying. I cleared my throat to gain their attention.

"What happened?" Sophia asked as all of them got up.

"Yea.. She's alright, right?" Louis asked in a nervous tone.

"Kind of.." I trailed off, not knowing what words I should say. I didn't had the heart to tell them. But I knew they had to know. "They have doubts.. that she'll m-make it." I said hesitantly, my eyes teared up again. It was hard, but I still explained everything that the doctor said. The girl who was one of my best friends, my sister, with whom I spent the best times of my life, whom I adored with all my heart was lying on the hospital bed, fighting for life.

The group became restless. Trisha sat on the chair, crying, while the girls tried to calm her down. Almost all of us had tears. Aisha shared a special bond with all of us.

"There's nothing we can do?" Niall asked in a cracked voice, nervousness showing off in his tone. I looked down and shook my head, trying to control my tears, but miserably failed.

"We can only wait.." I answered in a low tone. I wiped my tears and faced them.

Louis' pov

Everything was unexpected. It was not right. Just a day before, we were having the time of our lives, and today Aisha was lying on the hospital bed. To me, she was just as special as my mates, or my sisters. More than anything, I was scared for Zayn. He was seeing the love of his life like this, he had been restless since she was gone missing, and now this. I couldn't even imagine something like this happening to El. She was my life, just like Ash was Zayn's.

Trisha and Zayn couldn't stop crying. To be honest, none of us was strong enough to hold our tears back. We wanted her to wake up as soon as possible.

I walked to a side as my phone rang. The caller id worried me. It was Muskaan's call.

"Hello?" I said hesitantly. I heard shaky breaths from the other line.

"Louis?" She asked. I hummed in response. It was becoming hard to speak. There was silence for a while.

"How is she?" She asked. I gulped the lump in my throat as tears formed again.

"When are you coming?" I asked. I wasn't brave enough to tell her.

"Lou, please.." She requested as a sniffle was heard. I took a deep breath.

"She's... not good." I said, my voice barely above a whisper. I heard muffling sounds. " She has to give some sign in four days, or we might.." I trailed off, not able to continue as my voice became heavy. She was crying.

"Please come soon. She needs us.. All of us.." I said as tears rolled down. She hummed in response.

"We'll try.. Take care. Please stay by Zayn." She said, I nodded even though she couldn't see me.

"Yea.." I said and ended the call. Wiping my tears away, I walked back to the group.

A nurse called out for Zayn.

"Yes?" He asked. I felt bad looking at him. He had been miserable. No matter how strong he tried to stay, he ended up crying.

"You can see her.. But please, don't crowd the room." She said, he nodded in response.

We decided that me, Zayn, Trisha and El would see her first. I had mixed feelings, I wanted to see her, but didn't wanted to at the same time.

We walked in. Tears stinged my eyes as I saw her. Her head was bandaged. She was connected to various machines. She had the oxygen mask on. The heart rate monitor was beeping steadily. Trisha gasped in fear while El held her. She loved her like her own daughter. Both of them walked to the bed, while me and Zayn were stood there in shock.

"Child.. Please wake up.. I can't see you like this... please.." Trisha trailed off as she cried softly. El had tears too. She was her best friend. I looked at Zayn hesitantly. He stood there looking at her, with tears in his eyes and unreadable expressions. I held him and started walking towards her.

"Lou.. I.. I can't..." He whispered. My heart broke, watching my best friend become so vulnerable. I looked at him and gave him an assuring nod. He looked at her again.

As we stood beside her, he lightly hugged her, careful not displacing any of the equipment. I knew he wanted to give her a tight hug, making it clear he won't let her go. I took her hand in mine and placed a small kiss. It was hard not to cry.

"Please get well soon.. For all of us. For Zayn." I whispered. I didn't even knew if she could hear me. But I wanted her to know how much we needed her.

The next few days were going to be hard. Everyone was terrified because of the news. Her condition had to improve in these four days. The doctor said if not wake up, she atleast had to respond, give slight movements or anything. I was angry about the fact that we couldn't do anything else rather than waiting for some sign. If something didn't happen, we were afraid that we might lose her. I shook my head at the thought.

This will not happen. She will respond. But everyone had the fear no matter how hard we tried to stay strong. If something bad happened to her, everything would fall apart.
