Chapter 4.

The past two weeks have been insane, between exploring London, working and Panda and Charly I haven’t had any time to myself. Niall is throwing a party tonight which he and Charly have conned me into going too. I was planning to have a night in with Panda but they had other plans.

CHARLY P.O.V

*My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard*

“Mmmm” my ringtone blares through my ears. “What?” I moan into the phone, “Hello to you to” Liam says through the phone.

“Mmm I’m tired, what’s up?” I must have fallen asleep on the couch watching Barbie for some unknown reason. “Just checking in and making sure you and Katy are coming tonight?”

“Yeah, we are coming but only for a little bit.” I answer before falling off the couch “what was the bang?” Liam asks through the phone “I was hoping you didn’t hear that, I may or may not have fallen off the couch.” I hear Liam laugh through the phone as I get up to go and wake Katy up.

“I’m gonna get ready and find Katy, I’ll see you later” I speak into the phone “See you later babe” Liam says before hanging up.

“Kate just called we have to drop Panda off at her place on the way” Katy says through the bathroom door. “Okay I’m almost ready we will go in 10?” I ask finishing off my make up “Yeah sounds good” I hear before turning on the blow dryer to dry my long brown locks.

KATY P.O.V

“Come on Panda you’re going to have a fun sleepover with Kate again” I say picking up Panda from her car seat “Wait where’s bear?” Panda screams with tears in her eyes. I place her on the ground next to Charly before rummaging through the back seat finding Bear on the floor under Panda’s coat. “Here baby” I say passing her the bear and seeing her eyes light up.

“I’ll take her in you keep the car running” Charly says quickly picking up Panda and running up to Kate’s door. “Bloody Charly? I smirk getting back into the car.

“Can we give Harry a lift to the party?” Charly says as she opens the door without getting in. “Yeah we need to stop at the petrol station too.” I say turning down the stereo. “Hey Harry” I smile as he gets into the back seat. “Hello again Katy” He says just as Charly turns the stereo up loud, I roll my eyes as I drive off.

“Katy?” I turn to find Niall standing behind me in the queue. “Oh hey wait why aren’t you already at your party?” I ask laughing, “Yeah had to get ice, bloody Connor forgot.” He smiles as I turn to the counter.

“I’ll see you at the party!” Niall calls as I reach the car, I give him a nod and smile “What’s Niall doing here?” Charly asks as I start the car “Connor forgot to get ice” I laugh.

“I thought he said this was going to be small...” I say as we reach the house. “Niall’s parties are never small” Harry laughs as he makes his way up the steps.

“Babe!” Niall shouts as soon as we enter the house, he’s sitting with a group of boys on the couch as I make my way over. “Ah I’m gonna go find Scott” Harry says as I follow his gaze to where Rachel has just joined the group Niall is with “Oh okay catch you later” Charly responds as Liam wraps his arms around her waist.
