Moments of Happiness

Liam

"Welcome back to the bus, boys." I say, grinning. I pull each into a massive hug. I greet them individually, going down the line.
"Calum! How are ya mate?! It's been forever! I saw you got a new bass. It looks cool. I hope you brought it will you!"
"Ashton! Drums still treating you well? Did you get the new drumsticks I sent you for your birthday? I thought they looked pretty cool."
"Luke! Luke Luke Luke. I love the new single. Glad you let these other hula-gins sing for once. Haha!"
"Mikey! Hey mate, I'm so glad you are alright! I saw the videos of you being on fire! The boys and I were really worried about you. Hey! At least the eyebrow grew back!"
Yep. I Liam Payne brought 5 Seconds of Summer to cheer up Harry.
"Well, before we go in, I have to explain a couple of things to you. 1) Harry had the bright idea to invite two of our fans along on tour for this next week. The older one with the greenish hair is Lauren. The younger one with blond brown hair is Joanne, or Joey. 2) Harry has lost his voice. The doctors ordered at least 2 days complete vocal rest. Thats why you guys are here. As a distraction." I tell them. At first they looked confused and slightly shocked and then they just looked humored. They nodded and I turned and motioned for them to follow me in.
I go up first and made sure that no one is in the front living room area. I have the guys wait there. They plant themselves on one of the long couches. I go through the door into the kitchen area. Louis, Niall, Lauren, and Joey are all still there. Harry must still be asleep. Good. Joey and Lauren turn and look at me when I walk in. Louis and Niall are too interested in their breakfast. I sit down at the small booth table behind them. I wait till the bus starts moving again.
"Oh shoot. Hey, Lauren?" I call to her. She turns around and smiles at me. I smile back and continue. "I left my phone up front on the couch. Could you go grab it?" I ask. She nods and hops off the stool. She disappears from view and I start the count down.
3..2..1..
And then the screaming starts. Louis, Niall, and Joey all dive off their seats and race to the door to check on Lauren. Then Joey starts screaming. I hear Niall and Louis laughing and greeting the guys. I hop up and walk in to find Lauren and Joey sitting on the couch across from the boys. Neither are talking, or making any noise at all. They seem to be frozen in shock. I smirk and sit down next to them. I glance at the girls and they are still just staring at the boys. I nudge Joey with my elbow and she turns to stare at me.

"You know, you could say hi or something." I say and she just stares at me. I smirk and call Calum over. "Hey mate! This here is Joanne, or Joey, and next to her is Lauren, her older sister. They are HUGE fans." I say. Calum nods and smiles. He reaches for Joeys hand, but instead of shaking, he pulls her up and gives her a hug. I can see her face over his shoulder and she looks like she is going to cry. Ashton comes over and start talking to Lauren. Both girls look ready to die of happiness. I am so absorbed in watching the girls that I don't notice the door behind us open to show a sleepy Harry. He comes over and the guys greet him. Hugs are exchanges and Harry is grinning. Everything is good. Everyone is happy. Just how it should be.
