The Animator (Larry Stylinson)

CHAPTER NINETEEN - TRAINING

There was a lot of commotion going on the next morning and Harry woke up with a start sitting bolt upright in his bed. A bang echoed through the room and pain radiated from Harrys skull as he dropped back down onto the bed clutching his head where it had collided with Nialls bunk above him.

Apparently everyone else was awake because there was a chorus of laughter and Harry groaned at the throbbing pain as he opened his eyes and looked past his fingers at the table by the doors.

Thomas, Leon and Niall were eating breakfast and had obviously been taking part in a very lively game of poker, but they were all watching him with amused faces now.

"Alright there, Styles?" Thomas asked and Harry grumbled under his breath turning away from the others to face the wall trying to wish the looming headache away.

"I'd be tired and grumpy too if I'd been up until sunrise." Said Leon in a coy manner and Harry pulled the cover over his head, his eyes were heavy and tired and he was sure he'd only got about an hours sleep.

"Did you have fun with Louis?" Niall said, the grin evident in the way he spoke and Harry frowned as he thought back to the night before. It had all been perfect until Louis had run.

"I met my mum," Is all he said, his voice strained and he felt Ferdinand move under the blankets and come up to his face where he started tugging lightly on Harrys hair with his spout.

"At three in the morning?" Niall scoffed.

"Yes," Harry replied opening his eyes to watch Ferdinand and a moment later he felt the bunk dip as Niall sat on the edge looking down at him.

"How did it go?" He asked and Harry looked over to the table, Thomas and Leon were looking down at the table but it was obvious they were listening.

"She was nice," Harry said turning onto his back and dropping his hand from his head, the pain was dulling by now and Niall hummed watching him intently. "Was talking about my dad and granddad,"

"So it was a conversation about your family?" Niall asked and Harry paused biting at his lip. He should ask his mum about them more, he had no idea what had happened to his dad or sister.

"I saw this photo, me and a girl a couple of years older than me," He said and Nialls eyebrow rose up in shock and he looked over at Thomas and Leon too, before looking back at Harry.

"So you have-"

"A sister." Harry finished for him, nodding his head and running his hand over Ferdinand who was nudging him for attention. "That's not it though, I'll tell you about it later."

Niall nodded and stood up from the bed before walking over to the table again where he sat down.

"Lets get back to me obliterating you then shall we?" Niall said and Thomas scoffed.

"You have a one and a six, you're not going to be doing much with that mate." Leon scoffed and Niall made an affronted noise looking at the other two,

"I can't believe you cheated!"

"Lee and I have to go meet the Captain, he needs help about getting a new boat." Thomas said standing up and Harry watched them with a frown, a new boat was the last thing he wanted to hear about.

They left the caravan and Harry sat up more carefully this time, putting Ferdinand on his lap instead looking over at Niall who turned to look at him too.

"So what else is it then?" He asked and Harry sighed.

"I've got a day of training with Anne today, they say I could have loads more powers that we need to get under control."
