Chapter 3:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 After finishing up our conversation in the main office, we finally make our way out to the van, thankful the bell didn't ring yet. I see Paul awaiting for our arrival, a huge grin spreads across both of our faces. I make my way toward him, his arms and mine spreading out to engulf each other in a hug.

"How are you?" He questions squeezing my shoulder.

"I'm absolutely great." I smile at him.

He gives me a chuckle and he turns his attention toward the boys who were getting in the back seat, "Alright let's get a move on then." He slams the door and starts up the van.

I walk over to the side door and gladly seat myself between Harry and Liam. Harry shuts the door and Paul is out of the parking lot and onto the road. I look back to the back seat and Niall is already sprawled out on the seats. I giggle and in the corner of my eye I see a familiar set of suit cases in the trunk area.

"You already got my things?" I question looking at Liam. His eyes wonder up from his phone and he looks at me,

"Yeah of course. I called your mum a little while before we were going to get you and I asked if she could get your things ready. So I'm pretty sure she packed all the appropriate things for you. But if there is some type of clothing you don't have, we are going shopping sometime soon."

There it is, the responsible side of Liam Payne.

I give him an "okay" and his eyes find his phone again. I look over at Harry and he was in the same position as Liam. Eyes fixated on his phone screen, occasionally swiping his thumb across it.

"You guys are so boring." Harry chuckles as he turns his head toward me, "Oh really. Is that so?"

I smile, scrunching up my nose as I nod my head, "This is your first time seeing me in what, six months and you would rather spend this time on your phones. I don't even think you've asked me how my day was."

Harry switched his position in the seat, clasping his hands together as he cocks his head to the side. "How was your day Claire?" He smirks, a single dimple appearing on his cheek.

"It was great, thanks for asking." I said sarcastically.

"Good." He smiles again, then hunches back into his old position, going back to what he was doing on his phone previously. My eyes widen as my mouth gapes, "Harry!" I screech.

"Claire!" He mocks back, a smirk inching across his lips.

"Guys, seriously shut up." Niall yells from the back seat.

"Rude." I laugh, appauled by his remark. I lean over and hit Harry on his arm. He winces but doesn't look up from the screen. I lean my head against the seat, my eyelids becoming heavier by the minute. 

"Harold?" I say turning my head toward him,"Yes Claire?" he says turning his head toward me , cocking an eyebrow. "Can I barrow your sweatshirt?"

"Sure."

I watch him lean his body toward the passenger seat and grabbing his sweatshirt and handing it to me,"Thanks." I say, Harry giving me a small nod as I throw it over my head. I pull the sweatshirt over my T-shirt, Harrys cologne filling my nostrils and making me sigh in pleasure. I lean my head down to Harrys legs and my feet lay on Liam's lap.

I bury my head in the bunched up fabric of Harry's jacket and shirt at his stomach. He finally puts down his phone to acknowledge my existence. "Did I say I approve of this?" He laughs.

"Nope, but I do." I smile as I nuzzle deeper into the fabric.

"I guess I can allow it."

*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

*Harry's pov*

Light rain hitting the windows woke me up. My eyes come to focus and sleep leaves me. I look around the van careful not to wake Claire. Niall was still sprawled out in the back seat, his chest slowly moving up and down and soft snores escape his parted lips.

I turn my head to my left and Liam has his arm on the door and his hand is propping up his head. Ear buds hang from his ears and his eyes are calmly shut.

I turn my attention down to Claire. She hasn't move an inch since she fell asleep. The tip of my finger traces her flushed cheek, moving a piece of hair behind her ear. She stirs a bit but nuzzles deeper into my stomach while moving her feet under Liam's thigh. I smirk a little and slowly bend down, my lips coming in contact with her forehead.

My eyes find the window and rain drops speed down the glass. My gaze is interrupted when I hear movement coming from the back and I turn my head. Niall sits up and stretches out, groaning loudly as he fixes the hat on his head.

"Hey are we there yet?" He looks at me, his blue eyes glossed over. "Yeah, bout 15 more minutes." Paul's voice boomed from the driver's seat.

"Alright" Niall says, settling back into the seat.

Liam slowly lifts his head from his propped hand and stretches out, yawning. He is suddenly is taken back when his face scrunches up, "God, that is rank Niall."

I finally understand what Liam is talking about and I mimic his facial expression as I nonchalantly roll down the window.

Niall's mouth gapes as his brows scrunch together, "What the shit, that wasn't even me!"

Liam turns back to Niall pushing him slightly, "C'mon now."

Niall leans up again and pushes him back. They start pushing each other back and forth making a ruckus.

"Guys, stop." I laugh. They both let out a aggravated sigh and settle down. Niall leans forward again, getting one last smack to the back of Liam's head, "Don't be silly Liam."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*Claire's pov*

My eyes flutter open, my sight adjusts as I look up to the face that was towering over me.

Harry smiles, "Sleep well?"

I sit up fully, "Better than I have all week." I return the smile as I place a kiss on his cheek.

I inch toward Liam and put my head on his shoulder. He turns his attention away from the window and looks down at me,"Have a good nap?" he gently lays his head on mine. His arm wraps around my shoulder and he rubs my arm soothingly.

"Yes, I needed that." I state looking up at him,"I thought so, your dad was telling me how you would stay up till dawn studying for your tests, I know school these pass weeks have been stressful." he squeezes me tightly and kisses my forehead tenderly. I agree with him and get away from his grip and lean myself back onto the seat, looking out the windshield.

I feel a pressure on my shoulder and hot breath tickles my neck in ear. I see blonde and brunette hair on my side and a smirk spreads across my lips.

Niall kisses me gently behind my ear, sending shivers through my body. My eyes flutter close, enjoying the tingling sensation he left behind. The pressure is gone and I can see the airport through the windshield. I start to feel excitement jolt through my body.

I'm finally leaving.
