Coffee Breaks // l.t.

Chapter 16

YO
anyone still there?

Louis' POV

"Where are you?" Dayne's voice spoke through the phone. "Can we check in already?"

"Yeah, go check in. We'll be there in ten." I said and peeked through the windshield when I saw the McCarren International Airport.

"Kay,"

I hung up and leaned closer to Eleanor who was playing with my fingers, her attention on the window beside her.

"Where are the tickets?" I asked her and literally took the bag from her lap. It was a bad habit of mine to go through other people's things without permission. I needed to watch myself next time.

"It's right... there..." Eleanor's voice trailed off as she watched me go through her wallet, pulling every picture I saw. I chuckled when I saw my picture when I was a kid, our photo when we celebrated new year together, some pictures of her friends, and one of her mum.

I smirked and took my picture, "You're so obsessed with me."

She looked at me like crazy and pointed at something behind me. I looked out the window and my brows furrowed in confusion to see nothing interesting, but then El's middle finger was suddenly shoved in my face, blocking the view.

I put her hand down and jokingly gasped. I pointed a finger at her and I couldn't help but smile. "You! Stop doing tha- AHHH! Fuck!"

I cupped my hand with my other hand and slid myself away from her to the other side of the seat. "Did you just bite my finger?!"

"I don't think so." Eleanor shrugged, and put her legs on the space I just sat on. I rolled my eyes and slumped in my seat; I didn't have to try anymore.

We were already running late and I kind of meant for us to be late. I don't know, just to annoy Dayne. Yep, that was my birthday gift for her. The sweet gift of Annoyance.

She literally dragged all of us this morning to go see her new bike. She was so pumped up she almost forgot it was her birthday, until one fan greeted her. Her reaction was priceless and she started going off about none of her family members even bothered to greet her this morning.

Dayne's POV

"We call all first class passengers of flight 416 bound for Los Angeles, California, to please present your pass tickets at gate B 18. Thank you and enjoy your flight."

I jumped up and lined up behind other passengers, already itching to go back to LA. I was actually in a bad mood and I didn't know for whatever reason. It was either my period was within this week or the fact that Louis was being such a girl for staying in the shower for too long.

We walked through the tube in a, kind of, informal way. A kid (a spoild brat) was walking behind me and Bob and his nanny was having a hard time taming the little rascal. As bad as my day has been, it annoyingly got even worse. The kid accidentally tripped over Bobby, making her stumble forward into me then to the floor, and it didn't take a second before I found myself on the floor as well.

Bobby's backpack fell in the process of her tripping, and I apparently tripped on it. I landed with a loud thud and then after that, Louis was laughing at the both of us as Eleanor helped me up.

I groaned and tried to smile through the pain when the nanny began preaching a string of apologies, looking quite guilty though none of it was her fault.

"It's okay, it's fine, it's fine." I mumbled and dusted off my butt and my knees. I took my bag from Louis' hand and smiled again at the poor nanny, glaring at the kid when she wasn't looking. "Be careful next time, okay?" I said nicely to the little boy, ruffling his hair and lightly tugging at the roots as I gritted my teeth. He didn't notice and just stared up at me; I honestly think I won't be an ideal mother in the future. I tilted my head and shot him a sarcastic smile and nodded at his nanny.
