The sound of tonight is really silent. I look at Elena’s face. Honestly it really looks adorable when she sleeps. I can’t even think why I could hate on this girl. I wait patiently beside her. I can wait until the sun comes up if I want to. I also can’t sleep either though.

Suddenly I feel Elena’s hand grips my hand and her face turns scared. I hold her hand more tight and I stroke her hair with my other hand. I’m just trying my best to calm her down.

“I’m here, Elena.” I said to her softly.

I’m glad she then turns calm again.

The sun is finally up and I think I fell asleep. I woke up with my hand still holds Elena’s hand. What a night. I think it’s time for me to go to my bed. I slowly pull out my hand of her and stroke her hair for the last time.

So I get out of her room and I suddenly meet Liam. I know what he’s thinking when I see his face turns worried.

“What are you thinking? Don’t even think about it! I’m not going to do that to her.” I said, trying to convince him.

He points his point finger to me, “o.. kay… What did you do then?”

“I uhh.. I just sat there, beside her. She got nightmares and I thought that I needed to be there.”

Liam finally smiles at me. I know what I did is right. Aha.

“I’m glad that you guys get along eventually.” He’s patting my shoulder. “Don’t make me disappointed.”

“Um.. I hope so.” I said.

“Wait… if you were sitting there, did you sleep last night?” He asked.

“Um.. yes. Few hours.” I said honestly.

“You’ve got to be kidding me, Zayn.”

“Don’t worry I’m going to be fine. I just need you guys to not to annoy me when I sleep on the way.”

I look at him. He raises his eyebrows at me. I know that he’s not going to trust me.

“You should prepare yourself.” He said.

“Yea I should.” I turn around and go to my room, leaving Liam there.

“WHOAAAAAAA WHOW WOW! WHOAAA!!!”

There Elena shouted very happily on the suitcases cart that is being pushed by Louis. She looks very happy. I’m still wondering if she still considers our failed kiss as her dream. Should I start over? I should be grateful because she looks like already forget about our kiss because that kiss happened too fast.

We’re in the airport with the other crew, waiting for our flight. I look at Zayn who’s yawning like hundred times already. He doesn’t look fresh this morning. Not as usual.

“Lack of sleep, huh?” I said to him a bit jokingly.

He turns to me. “Uh? Yes. Insomnia just crashed last night.”

“I know what it feels like, my brotha.” I put my arm around him as I tap his shoulder.

“Thank you, brotha.” He taps me back, jokingly.

[Let’s go to… no one’s POV!]

So finally 1D crews plus Elena are in the plane. It’s like 10 a.m. but Zayn really looks extremely sleepy. Instead of looking out the window, enjoy the view of London like everybody does, he’s sleeping peacefully on his chair.

Elena is stunned, after she looks how beautiful the view is from up there. She never gets bored of the views. Suddenly she feels like something is slowly falling onto her right shoulder. She turns right, and it’s Zayn.

She looks at him, she never thinks that actually he didn’t sleep last night. Just so she could sleep calmly. He must be so sleepy, Elena thinks. Oh, Zayn why were you so kind to me last night? If I knew that you’re the one who needed sleep the most, I would ask you to go to your bed instead of accompanying me all night.

Then finally Zayn’s head is right on Elena’s shoulder. He even makes himself comfort with that position. Elena can’t do anything but let him rest his head on her shoulder. She even smiles at him.

6 hours flight is not a short time. Finally they arrive in the destination at the exact time. The only one that Elena has been paying attention to is Zayn. She really thinks that she owes him. Zayn is now looking better and stretching out.

“How are you feeling?” Elena asked him.

He turns to her. “I’m good.” Apparently Zayn knows that she’s been giving her attention to him all this day. “Thanks.”

She smiles at him. “You’re welcome.”
