Chapter 114

Niall

Once Zayn hands me my phone, I look at the display but don't dare to check twitter again. I'm too scared that people will be mad at me for following a friend, we all know that fans can be crazy sometimes, not meaning that as a bad thing, though.

"She hasn't tweeted anything yet." Zayn shrugs with his shoulders while I shove my phone into my bag again. Maybe I should turn it off completely or throw it away right away.

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Like that her profile is inactive." Oh now I know what he was talking about.

"Yeah maybe she just signed up for fun.."

"Or to stalk you." Louis winks at me. I totally forgot he existed. But here he is, joking around even though I'm not in the mood for jokes right now.

"Yeah right." I doubt that Kelsey has ANY reason to stalk me. I doubt she still knows who I am or that we've ever been close to each other. I remember the time when Kelsey and I got to spend two days alone in London. No other people around us, no one who interrupted us. Just her and I. I still know how it feels to touch her skin, how her lips touched every part of my body and that sleeping with her had been the best experience of my life. I wish I could see her again, even if it's only one last time. I would apologise for saying the words I said on New Year's Eve. I guess it wouldn't change anything. I should focus on myself and the band but then again, she has been there since the beginning, since boot camp, she has always been a part of my journey. Funny how everything can change in a just short amount of time.

"Leave him alone." Zayn barks and I'm thankful that he told Louis off. I can't deal with his shit right now.

"Oh c'mon. He knows how I am and that I like to fool around. I'm trying to cheer him up." Well it's not working. He is cheering me the hell "down".

I can hear Zayn snorting but I keep my eyes shut. Maybe I'm lucky and sleep will come soon. I'm still suffering from the short night I had, thanks to Louis.

The rest of the drive is rather quiet and unfortunately very short. Just when I was about to fall asleep, David announces that we've arrived at our destination.

No one from One Direction says a word but David. I can hear him telling Preston to keep an eye on us while he is checking us into the hotel. Thank God, we can stay in the car a bit longer, getting a bit of rest.

I can basically feel Preston eyes on me so I can't do anything else but eventually move and take a deep breath.

"What?" I mutter.

"Nothing." I bet he didn't expect me to actually give up on trying to have a snooze but actually start a "proper" conversation with him.

"Good. How are you?" Okay this is really happening right now. I feel bad for haven't really talked to Preston until now. He's been keeping an eye on us all the time, making sure that we're safe. We should get him something soon. That would be a nice gesture.

He raises and eyebrow and turns his head around so he can't see me anymore. So much for having a lovely chit-chat. Maybe he wants to keep a distance and the security guards.

"Lovely day, isn't it?" I whistle away to myself. Still no reaction from Preston.

"You know, sometimes you can be a bit creepy." I tell him and unbuckle my seatbelt to be able to get closer to him.

"What are you trying to do?" He sighs and when I look at him from the side, I can spot a smirk forming around the corners of his mouth.

"Entertain me." I suggest even though I already know that he won't do it.
