Babysitting for Styles

Chapter 4

*Sophie's POV*

"Okay, Alyssa, Louis, my name is Sophie, but you just call me Soph."

"K Soph. Can we watch tv? Harry never lets us. He's always watching it." they said at the same time.

"Sure. But at 9:30 go to sleep."

"Thanks. That's awesome. Harry only lets us go at 8:30" says Alyssa

"Okay. Just don't tell him that you're going too late"

"Trust us. We won't. Right Louis?" ~Alyssa

"Yea. We won't." ~Louis

"Ok. So you guys can go watch TV and if you need anything like snacks or if anything else happens, just yell my name. I'll be on the kitchen table reading."

The kids run with excitement in their eyes to the living room, plop onto the couch and turn on the TV.

I start reading -Hunger Games- again for maybe the sixth time. I know what is going to happen, but I still get the goosebumps when Katniss and Peeta kiss, or when someone is about to get killed.

The kids are still watching TV when Harry comes back, but it's not even 7°clock yet.

"So how were they? Hope they didn't cause you too much trouble." Harry asked me

"They were fine. I told them they can watch TV while I read, and that's what they've been doing ever since."

He sees me holding -The Hunger Games- in my hands.

"So how do you like the book so far?"

"Oh. I've read it many times before. I just really like re-reading it."

"That's cool. I like to do that myself but now with being famous and all, I don't have the time."

"When is tour starting?"

"In 4 days I'm leaving. That's why I need a babysitter for Alyssa and Louis."

"But the flyer for babysitting only said it's for a short time. Isn't tour like a year long?"

"It is, but I have a vacation somewhere in the middle, and I'll look for a new nanny then."

"Oh, it's fine. Really. I can watch over them for the whole year. Besides, it looks like Alyssa and Louis are starting to like me as a babysitter."

"That would really be great. Thank you Soph."

I check my phone, and see that it was on silent, and I got three missed calls from my mom.

"Sorry Harry, I have to go. My mom is worried. See you tomorrow I guess."

"Ok. Bye Soph. Um...text me..."

Harry had a nervous look on his face when he said that.

"K. Bye Harry."

"Bye."

As I was leaving, he gave me a hug. 'Wish he wasn't going on tour. I would love to spend time with him.' I thought to myself.
