I'm Here to Fix You

Love Uncovered

Chapter 23: Love Uncovered

Niall's P.O.V.

"Shhh don't wake her up!" Darcy's ooh soo protective 'boyfriend' slapped my back.

"I know what I'm doing, just shut up already!" I half whispered to him.

"But what if she gets mad when she wakes up and we're gone?" he perks up another question, stalling us even more. 

"Nahh. Liam and I left breakfast for her on the table. She'll do fine, now come on!" I say. 

"Are you sure it's safe that we leave her like this?" 

"Just leave the note on the table beside her, lad! Come on, Harry! Don't be such a sourpuss."

"Keep your voice down! She's still tired from last night," he shushed me as he strode towards her bedside. 

"You mean when we got chased by our screaming fans halfway across London?" I replied, half smiling. 

"Yes that, you shouldn't have took your fake moustache off." 

"Well it's itchy and I couldn't eat the chicken properly! It's Nando's for crying out loud!" I retort. 

"You and your lame food related excuses, Niall." 

"Leave the note already, Harry! The managers are going to kill us if we're late again. Come on, it's just a morning show. We'll be back before 10 am. I promise."

"I can't leave her alone like this," he said, sitting beside her.

"Yes, you can! Now come on, kiss her forehead or whisper something sweet in her ear already. We're running late!" I tugged him from the edge of the bed while sneaking a view from the hotel window, the sleek black limo arranged for us was parked at the grand entrance of the front lobby and damn lots of fans were crowding the vehicle. It's not that I don't want to see them it's just that sometimes it gets too physical like last night.

Harry and I better hurry before things get physical again down there. I could see Louis jumping up and down in the midst of dozens of body guards shouting and waving for us to come down ASAP.

I guess that was the signal.

As I turned back to Harry, he woke Darcy up a bit and they talked for awhile. She kissed him on the cheek and in return he kissed her on the forehead. Okay, whatever. Even though they don't say it, I know they're together no matter how many times they deny it.

I fake coughed that broke them apart, "Harry we really have to go."

He nodded and he let her go back to sleep.

As he stood up, we shuffled to the door and ran out of the room straight to the elevator, finally.

The lift took us from the penthouse straight down to the lobby without making any stops on the other floors. As the doors open, Bob was there waiting for us and instantly he grabbed both our arms as we walked towards the limo. 

"Where have you been?" Lou scolded us both as we were about to get inside the vehicle, "The Today Show started half an hour ago! Our interview's scheduled after the weather forecast which started a few minutes ago! Get your sorry asses in here and let's get out of here!" 

"It's not my fault, blame it on Curly over there who couldn't leave his best friend," I muttered, putting air quotes on the word best friend. 

We were all about to turn to Harry when we found him asleep in his seat. Great. 

Liam signaled Bob to leave and through the crowds of fans we drove through into the busy streets of London. This is going to be a long day.
