Best Mates Daddy (l.s.)

Chapter 9

Sunday

The week passed by very quickly. Every night, Louis would wait for Niall to fall asleep and sneak into Harry's room for cuddles. They haven't done anything except make out and shower together. Niall hasn't really suspected anything so hopefully he doesn't find out while there on the camping trip.

It's currently 9:30 a.m. and Harry is running around the house frantically, scared he'll forget something important. Louis and Niall are just laughing at him as they've already put their bags in the trunk of Harry's car. Louis had texted Michael saying that the Wi-Fi probably wouldn't work at the cabin, and he believed him. He was planning to break up with him soon but didn't want to right before Christmas or until he knew what he and Harry were.

"Dad, c'mon." Niall groaned.

"I have to make sure I'm not missing anything. Do you guys have everything?"

"Yeah." Louis smiled.

"Yes, now let's go." Niall pushed Harry out of the front door. He threw his bag in the trunk and closed it before hopping into the driver's seat. Louis sat in the passenger seat as Niall took the backseat. "Yay, lots of room to sleep." Niall cheered.

About 40 minutes into the drive, Niall was already passed out and Louis was staring out of the window, seemingly deep in thought.

"What're you thinking about?" Harry asked glancing at Louis.

"Nothing important." Louis shrugged.

"Talk to me Lou." He peeked at Niall who was laying down, somehow still with the seatbelt on, and his head was smashed into the leather before placing his hand on Louis' thigh.

"Just thinking about my parents, I guess." He placed his hand on top of Harry's and rubbed his knuckles softly.

"I'm sorry baby."

"It's okay." Louis smiled. "I have to go to the bathroom Haz!" He suddenly yelled and smacked his hand.

"Ouch." Harry laughed and moved his hand back to the steering wheel as Niall sat up groaning.

"What the hell Lou! I'm trying to sleep here." Niall hit the back of Louis' head.

"Hey, no hitting Niall." Harry said sternly.

"Whatever." He rolled his eyes.

"I have to go to the bathroom!" Louis whined.

"Okay, okay! We'll stop at a gas station or something." Harry took the next exit that had a gas station logo on the sign. He parked in a parking lot as Louis and Niall rushed inside. Harry decided to pump some more gas and after standing there for a while, Louis and Niall finally came back out with a bunch of snacks and drinks. "Seriously guys." Harry shook his head amused.

"I was hungry." Niall shrugged and began opening a bag of chips as he hopped into the back seat.

"Why'd you let him buy all that food Lou. I thought you were the responsible one." Harry laughed as he finished paying for the gas.

"It was Ni's hard-earned money." Louis sat back in the passenger seat as Harry sat in the driver's seat.

"Okay, no more stops for the rest of the drive unless it's an emergency. I think you've got enough food to last you the whole trip Ni." Harry shook his head and started the car.

"He'll probably finish all of that before we even get to the cabin." Louis laughed at his best friend who already finished the bag of chips. The rest of the drive went smoothly. Niall ate all of his snacks before taking another nap as well as Louis who fell asleep halfway through the drive. Harry couldn't help but admire the beautiful blue-eyed boy that was his for now.
