Chapter 24

HARRY’S POV

December 18…16 days after birthday…1 month after sickness (near death)…7 months after accident…

“HAZZA! HAZZA! WAKE UP!” Kayla yelled in my ear, shaking my shoulders.

“Kayla…it’s too early, go back to bed” I grumbled, rolling over.

“Harry! We’re almost there get out of bed!” she yelled.

I rolled back over and sat up, hitting my head on the ceiling “Ow!” I said, rubbing my head. “I hate sleeping in here” I groaned.

We had slept in our tour bus, while Paul drove. There were two twin bunk beds, one bathroom, one queen bed and the couch pulled out into a bed. We had just enough room for all of us.

Niall, Liam, Zayn, Louis and I slept on the bunks and took turns sleeping on the couch while Kayla and Lexi slept on the queen in the back of the bus.

We hardly ever slept in here, so I wasn’t used to the small space. I hated it, we were all way to big for them, and our feet dangled off to the side. That wasn’t the only reason I didn’t like it, I hated not waking up next to Lexi. I had gotten so used to her being there. Before, she used to just come in sometimes, or I would sneak in to her room, but lately we’d always end up in each other’s arms.

LEXI’S POV

I woke up next to Kayla, in the back of the tour bus, it was so nice sleeping in here when the bus was moving, it was like being rocked to sleep. I actually rather liked it, the only thing I didn’t like was that Harry and I had to sleep in separate beds.

I’d been having nightmares ever since the whole Caroline thing, and even though Harry couldn’t make the nightmares stop, it was comforting to wake up next to him, with his strong arms wrapped around me protectively.

I reluctantly got out of bed so I could get ready. I always made sure to get up a little earlier than the boys, when ever we were stuck in the bus, since there was only one bathroom and I always took a little longer to get ready than the boys did.

I finished my morning routine, then I looked out the blinds of the window, it looked freezing outside. It was snowing slightly so I put on a white long sleeve, and over that I put on the oversized pink Jack Wills hoodie that Harry got me, I put on a pair of skinny jeans , and I pulled on my tan Ugg boots over my double socked feet.

I grabbed my phone and my panda headphones and opened the door to our bedroom. I walked quietly past the boys bunks, and tickled their dangling feet lightly, Zayn wiggled his toes slightly, but that was the most reaction I got from them. These boys were very heavy sleepers.

“Morning Paul” I whispered to him.

“Morning Lexi” he yawned back. The poor guy had been driving all night, I don’t know how he does it sometimes.

“How much longer?” I asked.

“Not too long, maybe about an hour or so, this is just one of Simon’s houses, and this one is pretty isolated” he answered.

We were headed to one of Simon’s mansions, we would be spending Christmas there, which the boys and Paul weren’t too happy about, but Simon had insisted.

So that’s where we were headed. I didn’t mind too much, from what I’ve been told it was a huge mansion, and there would be plenty to do. I was actually a little excited.

I opened the cupboard and quickly pulled out a bowl, spoon and some cereal. I grabbed the milk from the fridge, sat down at the little table and ate as fast as I could. Liam was sleeping on the couch and I wanted to finish my cereal before he woke up.
