Ellie's POV

Time seemed to drag on as we drove. We were in the car for what seemed like 4 hours but In reality was only 35 minutes. Noah, Harry and I sat in the back seats and Eleanor sat in the front with my luggage resting on the passengers seat. I watched as Harry played with Noah. Meanwhile my mind was fuzzing with confusion. I was tired as hell but whenever I tried drifting my thoughts away and falling asleep everything drew back to one person...

Harry

It was particularly hard trying to not think of him since we was sitting right beside me during the car ride. I constantly found myself attempting to distract myself trying to avoid any type of contact with Harry. But, every now and then my eyes creeped and I ended up staring at him. Why do I do that?

I was confused and I didn't know what to do.

"We're here!" Eleanor exclaimed in a sing songs voice.

Hallelujah.

I nearly sprinted out of the car trying to escape the awkwardness. But of course that didn't work.

"Oh no you don't! Planning on leaving me with all of these bags?" Harry said wrapping his comforting arms around my waist, carrying me back to the car.

It took a few seconds for me to register what exactly was happening. It felt so natural for him to be near me. I closed my eyes, enjoying the feeling of unity. Then reality hit me.

I looked up into his green orbs, backing away shaking.

I felt tears welling in my eyes. Not because I hated him, not because I didn't want him to be with me.. But because I missed it. That touch that sent shocks down my spine. I missed it more than anything.

"I'm sorry.." Harry said, his face dropping to the ground.

"D-don't be" I stuttered.

Our eyes met for a millisecond and suddenly my heart sank.

Right then, right there our lips met.

Eleanor's POV

"We're home!" I yelled as I walked into the house.

I threw my shoes off, placing them onto my shoe rack.

"Ellie, Eleanor!" Lou screamed running down the stairs.

It almost seemed as though he was a 6 year old running to get his birthday present. I tried not to laugh at my own remark.

"Wait, where's Ellie?" Louis said once he reached me.

I turned around expecting to see Ellie there holding her luggage, but I didn't.

"I suppose she's still unloading her luggage" I shrugged.

We opened the door to go help Ellie when we saw her and Harry kissing?

My gaze widened in disbelief. The whole 35 minute car ride they refused to even make eye contact, now they were practically swallowing each other whole.

Louis turned around in shock.

"Let's leave them alone for a bit" he said laughing.
