Q: Backing up iMessage from iPhone to iPad

I broke my iPhone completely so the screen didn't work and I had a lot of important messages on there. I managed to get ahold of a temporary replacement screen long enough to back up my iPhone onto my computer. I just plugged in my iPad to my computer and restored it with that backup. All of the applications from my iPhone came onto my iPad but none of the messages transferred over. I no longer have access to my phone. Is there any way I would be able to access the messages I received on my phone while it was broken onto my iPad's iMessage or not? Was iMessage even backed up with the backup? If I can't with the iPad, will I be able to restore my new phone that's coming in with the backup and get the messages on there?
