That makes two of us - 1d medical

The light dimes and all the six year olds entered the stage. Nola Horan stood there as well, more to the right and when the lights went back on she immediately spotted Niall waving at her and giving his thumbs up.

"Maysam," Nola said hearable for Niall and waved to her other older brother Maysam. Maysam suffered from cerebral palsy, because he was born with a lack of oxygen, so he's in a wheelchair.

Niall took both of Maysam's hands and waved back.

Nola her hair was braided byLiam who sadly couldn't make it because he had a morning shift in the hospital but he promised the six year old Horan that they went to Nando's once Liam returned home.

Nola and Maysam lives with Niall since their mother neglected both due to the disability of Maysam. Niall took both of them in when he turned 18 and met Liam a year later. Four years later, Liam and Niall got engaged and Niall got a full parenting over Maysam and Nola.

Nola danced like there was no tomorrow. Maysam looked at his sister and was somehow processing everything. Throughout the years Maysam had learned a few facial expressions. One of them was happy. Once Niall turned to Maysam to see how he was doing, Niall saw that Maysam had a happy facial expression when Nola danced her solo.

"You like it buddy?" Niall asked his brother while he wiped some saliva from Maysam his face. Maysam made a high squeal which was for Niall more than enough. He saw his baby sister preform and his younger brother happily enjoying in.

Once Nola was done she quickly turned around and waved back to Niall and Maysam. Then the curtains closed and the lights went back on.

It was a break and Niall knew that the youngsters were allowed now to sit by their family so it didn't take long before Niall heard familiar footsteps running his way.

Nola stood in front of Niall with a smile from ear to ear. "NiNi you saw I was good right?" Nola asked as she climbed on her brothers lap. "I saw No," Niall started as he placed Nola on his lap, "and even Maysam liked it. Right buddy?" Maysam squealed once again and Nola placed a kiss on Maysam his cheek.

"I love you Maysam," Nola said as she sat down next to Niall and held Maysam his hand.

Niall thought it looked cute and snapped a picture for Liam.

"We're watching the rest right?" Niall asked Nola. She excitedly nodded because one day she wanted to stand there as well. Suddenly the light dimmed and the curtains opened which made Nola - and Maysam in her act- clap as hard as she could.

Niall sadly smiled and laid a arm over Nola her shoulder to which she gratefully pulled into Niall's thigh. He softly kissed her forehead and Nola grabbed his hand.

"Nola luv you," Nola exclaimed once the show started.

Throughout the show Maysam was getting more and more tired till he finally fell asleep.

Once the show was over Niall noticed his younger brother sleeping and decided to leave it that way because he knew that Maysam would get grumpy if he got woken up.

"Nini are we going to eat with Li?" Nola asked as she wakes next to Niall. Niall nodded watching the little bumps on the road in the hope that Maysam wouldn't get woken up.

"Nola what do you want to eat?" Niall asked his sister when he managed to get on a normal pavement.

"NANDOS," she screamed. "That's my sister," Niall said laughing and ruffles through her hair.

———————————————————

"Lili we're hoooome," Nola a screamed as she walked through the front door. She kicked out her flip flops while Liam retuned from the living into the hallway. Within seconds Nola climbed onto his leg like a little monkey.

"Hey little chipmunk," Liam said while he picked up Nola, "How was it?"

"Good," She respondes while she played with Liam's badge.

Niall took off Maysam his shoes and carried him out of his chair.

"Let's lay down for a bit Yeah?" Niall said while he laid Maysam down in the living. Maysam had two beds, one downstairs and one in his own bedroom. He had a special bathroom as well were Niall or Liam could easily bath him.

"Hey love," Liam said as he placed a kiss on Niall's cheek which made Maysam squeal.

"Just cover your eyes mate," Liam playfully said to Maysam as he placed another kiss on Niall's cheek.

Maysam squealed once again which made Nola kiss his cheek.

"Oww and now we don't scream," Niall said laughing.

Nola got Maysam his hand while Liam went prepping his medicines. Due to his condition Maysam had to have 24/7 care and has a regular medicine scheme.

"A little pinch mate," Liam said to Maysam as he stuck the syringe into Maysam his vein. A tear slipped out of his eye which made Nola hug him. "No tears Maysam," she said as she kissed him. "See," she exclaimed, "Lili is all done."

"Let Maysam sleep for a bit. You and Liam go do some baking than we'll head to Nando's afterwards," Niall suggested as he turned Maysam into a sleeping position.

"Cupcakes," Nola screamed to much dislike of Liam. He loved baking but not cupcakes again.

"Alright lets head to the stores than," Liam sighed and looked at his fiancé with a 'I'll have you back' look which made Niall smirk.

————————————————————

"Fairytale cupcakes," Nola said as she held the package high. Liam, who had just put a few apples in the basket, sighed but couldn't refuse Nola her puppy eyes.

"Alright NoNo, But we know the deal?" Liam asked while getting on eye level.

"Yeah yeah," Nola said hugging, "as long as I keep eating two pieces of fruit a day I am allowed to eat cupcakes." Liam scuffled through her hair and kissed her head.

"What do we need as well for those shiny things?" Liam asked laughing. Nola ran away and returned with a dozen of eggs, butter and some candy. "I'm pretty sure that that candy isn't suppose to go in their," Liam said while he still put it into his basket, "but since you preformed soo well at ballet today you can get these and even get to pick out an ice cream."

Nola looked at Liam in disbelief because she only was allowed to get it with Niall or with Liam when it were special occasions.

She slowly grabbed his hand and walked Liam towards the ice cream ward.

Nola eventually picked some soft ice cream and when Liam asked  her why she chose it she told him that she could share it with Maysam.

"Stay close yeah," Liam said as they walked out of the store. Nola nodded and grabbed his hand. Together they would be walking home.

On their way they were talking about everything, well most likely it was Nola talking and Liam agreeing to it.

Suddenly Liam released his hand because his phone was ringing.

"Stay here Nola," Liam said as he picked up the phone.

Nola just waited until she saw someone walking across the pavement.

It was her best friend Fen and she just wanted to say hi. She looked if Liam was done calling but he wasn't. She saw no cars coming her direction so she thought it would be safe enough to cross the road and see Fen. Once Nola was in the middle a loud horn was to be heard not much later to be followed by an high scream for help.

Liam was still on the phone with Niall when Nola crosses the street.

"Yeah I'll see you soon and check out Maysam," Liam said when he suddenly heard a horn and screams, "I'll call you back yeah." Liam had hung up and wondered around to see where Nola was. The only thing Liam saw was a car speeding away and than it all clicked.

He ran towards the road and saw Nola laying in the middle of it. She was not moving at all and Liam knew this was horribly wrong.

Once Liam sat by Nola her side and made a quick scan of her potential injuries. Nola was unconscious, had a head gash, broken leg, few bruises and a possible broken back.

"Hey NoNo," Liam said as he rubbed her sternum to get any response out of her, "please open your eyes for me love." Nola opened her eyes and cried. "Lili it hurts sooo much," Nola screamed. "I know girl but stay awake for me Yeah." Nola replies with an yes and Liam investigated for more injuries.

"I called an ambulance," someone said as Liam turned around. He thanked the lady and continued his focus back to Nola.

"Alright NoNo," Liam said as he sat back in her facial area, "I'm going to feel around so tell me when it hurts or when you feel me touching you."

Nola agreed and Liam got out a pen out of his jacket. He knew Nola was ticklish and that normally she would be laughing soo hard when something tickled her feet, but right now she didn't give a shot.

"Do you feel anything Nola," Liam asked her. Nola replies with a no which made Liam's concern grew even more.

Suddenly he heard sirens coming closer and closer until he heard a familiar voice coming up from behind him.

"Liam Holy shit," Harry exclaimed when he jumped out of the vehicle.

Once Liam spotted Harry he broke down. "Shhhhh," Harry tried to calm him down, "you hurt?" Liam shook his head and kept on crying his heart out.

"Alright Li calm down," Harry said, "What do you think?"

"No feeling from the waist down so possible broken back, a complex fractured her right femur, unconscious at the scene do possible head trauma, head gash."

Harry nodded and focused back on Nola who was clearly in pain.

"Hey Nola," Harry said as he crunches down, "you remember me?" "Uncle Hazza," Nola softly said.

"I heard that you got hurt hun. Not nice right. I'll check you over and take you with me and Liam if that's alright with you."

Harry kept on chatting with Nola while he inserted an IV because he knew that Nola was scared to death of needles.

"It hurts," Nola cried to Liam who was fighting himself to hold back his tears. Harry hooked up some machines and saw that Nola her vitals were nerve breaking low.

"Liam," Harry whispers "come here please." Liam slowly stood up and followed his mate and former colleague to the back of the ambulance.

Harry pulled out a spinal board, colar and a gurney.

"Alright," Harry said once he pulled out the gurney, "she's in a state in which I don't want to move her. Her heartbeat is way to low and and her back is broken on different places. My intention is to move her over the road because I could call a chopper but than you can't fly with them and since the road is only 3 minutes longer and not as bobbly. I do doubt about given her some anestesia because she's in soo much pain and I don't think that she can manage it long enough."

Liam nodded. He knew that Nola was in pain and he knew what happens when Harry did put Nola under anestesia.

"Put her under if she doesn't have it anymore but I'm climbing in the back in the ambulance and you'll be getting us to the hospital ASAP."

Harry nodded and agreed to Liam's deal. They walked back and found Nola crying.

"Hey girl were taking you alright," Harry said as he saw that her oxygen says were lowering. Harry looked scared at Liam who shared the worried look back. Liam quickly grabbed a stethoscope and listened to both her lungs. He suddenly nodded back at Harry and pointed to her left lung. Now it got clear for Harry, Nola had a collapsed lung.

"Alright Nono," Liam softly spoke, "Harry and I will be rolling you to your right hand side and than we'll lay you on a backboard. I'll first put on a colar and than Harry will set everything up. We need you to lay still for us alright?"

"Yes," Nola said while wobbling her her lip. Harry wasn't setting anything up but he got out a sharpie and a tube. He carefully lifted Nola her shirt and trailed down the ribs. He stopped two ribs down and set the knife to it.

"Shape pince," Harry carefully said and cut a bit. Nola screamed that even Liam's eardrums popped. He tried to calm her down but she kept on crying and continued to say how much it hurts.

"I know baby girl I know but you have to stay strong for me alright," Liam said now crying.

"Want NiNi and Maysam," Nola softly spoke . Fuck. Liam was so busy making sure that Nola was okay that he completely forgot about his fiancé and her brother waiting for both of them. He knew he had to call Niall but decided it would be best if he did that once they were in the hospital.

"They will meet us at the hospital," Liam reassured her.

"Alright Li," Harry said who was done 'fixing' Nola's collapsed lung, "on my count. 1.2.....3...."

At three both of them rolled Nola to her side. Liam kept her neck steady while Harry secured her her legs. Normally there would be two paramedics but since they were shorthanded Harry was alone this time. It was way out of protocol but the women who diales 999 said to the operators hat there was a doctor at the scene already because she saw how Liam handled Nola.

"Alright NoNo," Harry said as he got a red package, "I'm going to put this around your leg and then get all the air out of it so it gets steady and comfy."

"Okay," Nola responded crying. She was visibly in pain and desperate to have her brothers there with here.

Harry vacuums her leg and pulls her onto the bed together with Liam. Once they lowered her they both got one side of the bed and lifted the gurney into the ambulance.

"I'll be staying here," Liam said when he grabbed her hand.

Harry hopped in the front seat and drove away with an amazing speed.

"Haz," Liam suddenly yelled halfway the journey, "stop for a sec." Harry got concerned and turned around to see what made Liam yell stop to him.

Turned out that the tube out of Nola her lung snapped so she had trouble breathing.

"Hey NoNo I'm just going to put this back so you'll feel a little pinch." Liam stuck in yet another tube but it wasn't making any progress.

"Move fast," Liam whispered/yelled towards Harry.

Harry sadly nodded and pushed his feet harder on the gas paddle.

————————————————————

"We're here," Harry yelled. Liam stood up and hooked everything into to be portable. He jammed the door open and Harry quickly pulled the brakes off the gurney.

"Let's move," Liam yelled and ran into the emergency room.

"Li," Louis said shocked once his colleague ran into him, "who were off ri- OMG is that Nola." Liam sadly nodded and pulled her into a room.

Louis - one of the highest educated trauma doctors together with Liam - quickly followed.

"Alright what do we have?" Louis asked when he saw Liam turned with his back to the white board. Liam grabbed a marker and wrote everything down from the vitals he had measured at Nola at the scene.

Louis was doing a neurological exam on Nola and found that Nola her left pupil wasn't reacting the way it should.

"Mild concussion," Louis softly said to himself.

Liam was just done with writing down everything down and turned back to Louis who was still taking some vitals.

"Alright," Liam said once he scraped his voice, "six year old Nola Horan. Hit and run victim. Head injury. Unconscious at the scene. Collapsed left lung. No feeling from the waist down so possible broken back and neck. Open fémur fracture on her right leg."

Louis just shook his head in disbelief, this couldn't be Niall's sister. The one he was so proud of and wanted her to dance and do the things she loved.

This devastating diagnose would break Niall.

"Alright NoNo," Louis said once he got in her eyesight, "LiLi and I are going to take you to a big machine to see what's wrong inside your body. LiLi and I will be there all the time so no need to be afraid yeah."

"Alright uncle Lou," Nola softly whispers. She began to see Louis and Harry as her uncles since they were pretty close to Niall and Liam.

"Yeah call Niall while I take her up," Louis sternly said in Liam's ear, soft enough for Nola not to hear.

Niall was at home waiting for Liam and Nola to come back. They've been away for over an hour. "Something might have happened," Niall said out loud, "No Liam is way to careful for that." Niall was about to set Maysam in front of the television when suddenly his telephone rang. His heart sunk when he saw the caller id, 'Liam work'.

"Hey," Niall softly spoke not trusting it at all.

"Alright Niall there's no way to say this easy but Nola got in an accident. When I was calling you she crossed the street and got hit. Just come to the hospital and let me explain myself."

"On my way," Niall almost screamed through the phone. He picked up Maysam and set him into his wheelchair. He grabbed the bus that was specialised for people with a handicap.

Once Maysam was secured in the bus Niall drove away with an amazing speed.

Liam ran back to the ct scan once he was done calling his fiancé.

"His coming with Maysam," Liam said catching his breath because he ran up the stairs to the fifth floor.

Louis softly nodded and pointed to the screen. Liam's world shattered apart. "Could we like fix vit with a surgery or is she just," Liam didn't finish his sentence because Louis softly nodded. "Yes," Louis spoke as he rolled his chair back, "she's paralysed."

Louis silently closed her file and left Liam devastated. Two of 'his' children needed 24/7 care. His world was falling apart within seconds.

Liam let himself slid to the ground and pulled his knees towards him. Louis was about to walk out of the room when he saw that Liam wasn't following him.

"Hey Li," Louis said as he pulled an arm around him, "It's not your fault yeah. Niall will say it too I'm two hundred percent sure of that. Right now we need to focus on Nola and her recovery, she still needs surgery on her femur and lung you know."

Liam nodded and grabbed Louis hand to stand up.

He wiped his tears forcefully and walked back to the ct were Nola was still laying.

"Hey beauty," Liam softly spoke once he got her out, "Niall's down you wanna see him?" Nola got a soft smile on her face and replied with a weak yes.

Once Nola got rolled back into the ER Niall was waiting for her.

"Hey princess," Niall said crying. Liam laid an arm around his fiancé and slowly shook his head which was enough information for Niall.

"We need to head to the OR and fix the break in her leg and her lung. There's nothing we can do anymore to her spine since it's shattered. Nola needs an wheelchair as Maysam. I'm sorry Ni."

"Never ever," Niall said to Liam, "think in any way that it's your fault. It's just bad luck."

"I love you," Liam said and kissed Niall which made Maysam squeal again. This even made Nola smile.

————————————————————

"And here you have your bed," Niall proudly said as he opened Nola her bedroom door.

Within 5 weeks, Liam and Niall had to reorganise the whole house. Nola her bedroom went downstairs and the one of Maysam upstairs since he was able to use the lift that Nola with her back wasn't.

Nola wheeled into the room and started crying at how beautiful it was and how much effort Liam and Niall had put into it.

"Luv you," she said directing to both. She wheeled back to her bed and used her now trained arms to lift her onto it.

Once she laid down she saw a poster of a familiar event. She looked closer and saw that on the poster was a picture of her. Performing her first and sadly last ballet dance ever
