Restore form a Backup:

Have any backups of this MacBook that may contain these iMessages? If so, restore your Mac from the backup. I would also consider restoring your iPhone from a backup that contains these iMessages. Once either is restored, then they would be back on there. Be certain you backup each device, prior to the restoration.
