Suspicions

Louis Tomlinson

Today I woke up early to prepare for what's going to happen for today. I woke up two hours earlier than my usual alarm schedule. I was on his chest and he was speaking while he was sleeping, telling me stories I probably would never understand.

I traced his tattoos while I felt his chest slowly rise and fall repeatedly. What was he dreaming of?

It has become my habit to listen to him every time, trying to make sense of the words that he was mumbling under his breath.

Even when he's sleeping, he's still telling me stories.

I kissed his forehead before carefully standing up from the bed, leaving him under the sheets so I could make breakfast for us both.

While I was cooking, I couldn't help but think about what I wanted to do.

There's no way he could find out about it, unless someone decides to tell him.

"Niall? I need your help." I called him on my phone.

"Yeh sure, what's up?"

"I was wondering if you could help me?" I explained my plans to him and he listened carefully. I was speaking softly so Harry wouldn't hear me.

"Okay. Are you sure about this, man?" He asked.

"Yes, but I'm going to need your help." I begged.

"Okay. Harry won't be coming to work today, so just meet me at the hotel lobby and we'll talk about this." He suggested.

"Fine." I answered, hanging up on him. It was hard leaving Harry alone at the house and not telling him where I was going to be.

I'll be out for a few hours. I'll see you at dinner time. xx -L

I left a note at the bedside table before giving him a kiss goodbye. He was still fast asleep and I didn't want to wake him up and lie to his face.

I drove to the hotel, hoping Niall could help me with my plans.

"You are absolutely the worst surprise planner ever." I told him after hearing his fourth suggestion.

"You know I helped plan his proposal for you, right?" He proudly said.

"That wasn't your idea, you moron." I hit him in the head.

"Okay, fine. How about this-- you're at the zoo, and there are animals, and you have an animal, let's say, a giraffe, open his mouth, and then there's going to be a sign that says "happy birthday!" coming out from it, everyone comes out from where they're hiding and then you have a party." He suggested.

"That's just as bad as the first one." I told him.

"Awh, come on! What could be more awesome than that?" He sat up from his seat.

"Niall, it's a surprise birthday party for a 23 year-old man. You can't have it at the zoo. He's probably going to worry about it stressing the animals. And a happy birthday sign coming out from a giraffe's mouth? Are you crazy?"
