ROADTRIP || one direction

Farmhouse

"We've been searching him for over an hour now, what do we do smart guy?" I eventually broke the silence in the car.

By now Liam was asleep and Niall was still fidgeting.

"Just keep looking. He's got to run out of gas sometime." Niall answered.

I looked at the gas lever and noticed we were almost at the empty sign.

"Or we could. I'm almost out. I've got to find a gas station." Just then, I remembered about the thief having Niall's wallet.

"Call your bank. Maybe we could find out where he's stopped." I suggested.

He nodded and pulled out his phone. Thank god his bank was open 24/7. Since it's almost 2 am. Holy crap, 2 am? Brandon is probably worried so much about me!

After a few minutes Niall notified me the thief stopped at a corner store and bought a bag of Doritos and an ice cream cone.

"What a jerk. Those are my favourite kind of chips." Niall growled. I giggled and he laughed along with me.

I yawned and my eyes started drooping. "Hey, I can take the night shift if you want. You look pretty tired. And there's a sign for a gas station up ahead so we should be good." Niall smiled.

I shook my head but he pleaded and I ended up giving in. I was pretty tired anyways. I have sleep narcolepsy which is a sleeping disorder where you fall asleep without control too much. Which is why I'm not recommended my drivers license.

We stopped the car on the side of the highway and switched sides, exchanging funny faces when crossing paths. We both just laughed it off and got into our seats.

I was slowly falling asleep when I heard a muffled 'thank you' from Niall. I looked up at him and smiled. "You're welcome." I replied warmly. And with that I fell asleep.

-third person POV-

Liam opened his eyes around 10 minutes after Lillian went to sleep. He sat up straight in the back seat and shook his head, trying to awake himself.

"Niall, how're ya feeling." Liam whispered.

Niall jumped a little in his seat and breathed out a gush of air.

"Crap Liam. You scared me." Niall shook his head.

Liam looked over at Lillian and noticed Niall's jacket wrapped around her.

"You two are getting pretty close aren't you?"

"Just friends, Liam" Niall defended.

"Just watch it. We're here for work and only work."

"Yeah. Whatever man. Go back to sleep." Niall rolled his eyes.

Liam slowly laid back down and quietly fell into a deep sleep. Leaving Niall alone in his train of thoughts.

-Lillian-

I rubbed my eyes and stretched. I was expecting to still be sat in my car, but was greeted with a bed and fresh sheets.

"What the hell?" I opened my eyes and looked around the room. "Where am I?"

I threw off the sheets and opened the door to a little hallway.

"This place looks like a Barbie farm house." I said to myself as I looked at all the pink and blue frill and plaid decorating on almost everything.

I walked down the stairs and jumped back at the sudden outburst.

"HEY! Goodmorning sleepy head! Have breakfast!" Niall shouted from the dining room table.

There were about 5 people at the table eating breakfast that I didn't know. They were probably the family of this house. Makes sense.

"Where am I?" I asked Liam as he was about to sit down at a table.

"Oh yeah. It was about 4 in the morning when Niall gave up tracking him down for now. He was going to sleep in the car when this fine lady," Liam patted who I'm guessing was the mother, "noticed all 3 of us and invited us all in. You basically sleepwalked the whole way."

I nodded and thanked the kind family and sat down at the table to eat pancakes and bacon.

The sweet aroma filled my nose as I made my plate and dug in like a pig, forgetting 2 members of my favourite band, and 5 complete strangers are all watching me.

"Wow, she's hungry like a pig!" the younger girl said.

"Well what do you expect? We're on a farm." I laughed as everyone else did, enjoying my little pun.

We all finished breakfast as I got into the shower. The kind mother offered to wash my clothes, since I didn't pack because I didn't think we'd come this far.

After the shower I lounged around in the bedroom I woke up in and called Brandon.

"Hey Brandon. Give me a call when you can. I'm doing alright and I'm perfectly fine. I'll be home soon okay? Don't worry about me! Love you. Bye." I said into the voicemail.

There was a knock on the bedroom door. "Come in!" I yelled. To my surprise, Liam came in to give me my clothes.

He walked in as he covered his eyes, almost tripping over the side of the bed

I laughed loudly as he grumbles and picked up the dropped clothing.

"I'm in a towel." I explained. "It's fine."

Liam uncovered his eyes and laughed at how clumsy he was.

"Um, so here are your clothes. Have fun." he mumbled.

"Have fun?" I questioned his choice of words.

"Yeah I guess. Have fun changing? I don't know." he blushed as he slowly started exiting the room.

"I'll do that!" I hollered once he was out of the room.

I dropped my towel and put on my clothes quickly.

I left the room with my purse and said my thank you's to the family.

Liam and Niall were already waiting in the car as I hopped in the driver seat.

And we're on the road again.
