Our Summer of Direction

Sleep singing

Harry’s POV

“Well that certainly was interesting.” Emilea says entwining her and Niall’s fingers.

“I cannot believe we lost…AGAIN!” Niall curses following Liam out to the car. I see Katie hide a small smile and I climb into the car helping her in and letting her sit on my lap. Well not letting more like insisting.

“What are our plans for the rest of the day?” I ask while Katie starts falling asleep on my shoulder.

“We don’t have any plans. Dani needs to take a rest for the last of the day.” Liam insists making sure that she is buckled in. We start driving and Katie rolls over looking as though she is trying to get comfortable.

“What is she doing?” Niall asks looking over the seat.

“She is nesting. Katie moves a lot when she sleeps.” Emilea informs us.

“What happens when she nests?” Zayn asks looking up as well.

“It usually means that she has a song in her head. Give it about 20 seconds and you’ll understand what that means.” Emilea says. I look up at Katie and hear her speaking softly. I put my ear to her mouth and hear the song from earlier.

“Is she singing? I ask incredulously.

“She sleep sings.” Em says matter of factly.

“What?” Louis asks. He leans over Eleanor and puts his ear close to her mouth.

“She is actually singing.” He says in disbelief.

“I told you she would.” Em says as though it is nothing new.

“How long has she been doing that?” I ask listening to her sing the song over and over.

“Since we were about 4 and she learned the Spongebob theme song.” Em says with a smile.

“She usually sings louder.” Emilea adds. As if on cue Katie’s volume increases a little bit.

“Are we almost home? That song is getting REALLY old.” Louis whines when Katie starts it over for the 40th time.

“Jesus, will someone just wake her up?” El adds looking just as irritated.

“We are home; calm down.” Liam says, parking the car. They all climb out of the car in relief and I scoot to the edge with Katie in my arms and manage to climb out without dropping her. Since I am slower with Katie the PAPS see us and are surrounding us whilst taking pictures. I don’t listen to their obnoxious questions, but Katie wakes up since they’re screaming at us.

“What the hell?” She screams jumping slightly. I grunt as she jumps and she apologizes. I set her down but keep my arm around her and we push through the paparazzi.

“Why didn’t you wake me up?” She chides while I open the door.

“You were singing…and it was kinda adorable.” I murmur kissing her temple.

“Shit! I was sleep singing in the car?” She asks turning bright red.

“Yes…” I trail off walking up to my bedroom. She groans and throws herself on my bed.

“What’s the big deal?” I ask patting her back gently.

“It’s the most embarrassing thing ever! Who actually sleep sings? It’s ridiculous!” She complains with a pout.

“I’m sorry; I think it’s cute…” I say opening the laptop up. Katie takes my phone and starts playing games.

“Do me a favor; if you’re going to play on my phone then follow a bunch of my followers on twitter.” I smile playing on Facebook. She nods and starts clicking on my phone.

“Hello!!” Emilea and Niall scream running in and tackling Katie.

“What are you guys even doing?” She laughs trying to push them off of her. Emilea and Niall share a look and start tickling her.

“AHHH STOP!! STOP!!!” She shrieks laughing like crazy. They stop for a moment and she jumps off of the bed.

“Don’t guys have to make out somewhere or something?” She scowls taking the laptop off of my lap.

“Yeah, but Niall needs to talk to you and I need the keys so that I can go home.” Em says with a small laugh.

“Oh.” She says. She tosses Emilea the keys and Niall and Emilea swap some spit before Em leaves.

“What do you want Niall?” Katie asks sitting down on my bed next to him.

“I found Emilea a present!” He declares proudly pulling it out of his pocket.

“When did you go shopping from this morning?” She interrupts in confusion.

“I saw it this morning before we went to the Chatty Man’s show.” Niall explains unwrapping the package. I look over and see a necklace that is the batman symbol with batman on one side and robin on the other.

“Which side is for you?” I ask hiding a smirk.

“The batman side of course…” He says obviously.

“Emilea will not accept the robin side.” Katie says firmly.

“So I should wear the robin side?” He asks Katie who nods.

“While you’re at it, you should get her a sign that says ‘I’m your bitch’.” Katie says with a smile.

“What do you mean?” He asks in confusion.

“Well, Emilea is the batman girl. If you take the robin side then you’re pretty much admitting that you’re whipped. On the other hand if you give her the robin half then she is going to think that you mean she is your second.” Katie explains patting his back.

“So what am I supposed to do with this necklace?” He asks in disbelief.

“Honestly? You should trash it.” She says apologetically.

“No way; I will get her something extra to go with it.” Niall decides.

“Okay. What do you want to get her?” Katie asks turning to him.

“What would she like?”

“I have the best idea ever!” Katie exclaims turning to him.

“What?” He asks. She leans over and whispers something in his ear.

“I can do that!!” He yells running out of the room.

“What did you suggest?” I ask turning to her.

“You’ll see.” She grins deviously.
