A/N:- Please vote and comment. I need it for motivation to write part 2 and 3. Let's continue the pace and see what happens here. Enjoy!

Three-quarters up the ramp, Cord ahead of him, Louis turned back when he heard an particularly amused Robin ask from below; "Why is he blindfolded!?"

"He freaked out when we arrived and gave him his ticket." Anne explained to the man who then laughed like he had been tickled out of nowhere.

Harry pulled off the blindfold growling. "Niall! I told you this wasn't going to-"

"Oh, for God's sake!" Luke hacked out, pushing his sunglasses into his nose bridge and walking past the scene.

Eyebrows twisted, Louis trot back down to them. "There's nothing to be scared about. Come on." He gestured for him to walk.

"Sweetie," Anne cut in, concerned. "Do you think you can get on the plane with Louis?"

"NO!" Harry shouted. "I'M NOT GOING!"

"Sweetie?" Anne metered. "Behavior is uncalled for."

Louis put his hand on his shoulder.

"I can't!" Harry's eyes welled up. "Please, don't make me!"

Niall tried. "Listen, if you don't want to go I'll drive you."

"We're not going to make it in time," Louis piped up. "By plane it's half the time."

"Then I can't go!"

Anne's eyebrows shot up with an idea. She pulled out her cellphone and dialed Gemma.

The girl was hysterical. "Harry, I need you here! I won't be able to jump without you! You know that! You can't do this now!"

"Gem, I'm sorry!" Harry said defiantly.

She asked to speak to Louis.

"Get him on that plane!" she bellowed into the receiver as soon as she heard him respond.

Pulling the phone away from his ringing ear, Louis urged the adults along. "You guys can go up. I'll talk to him."

He gave Anne and Robin a look to let them know he had it under control. He looked at Harry, who was clasping onto Niall's arm like an eagle.

"Harry, um, do you remember when you told me you wanted to see the world outside Champton?"

Harry folded his arms, his coat lapping over his forearms. "But that's different. That's something I'm not sure will ever get to happen."

Louis smiled. "But it's today! You get to see London for the first time. It'll be awesome. You'll get to see a huge state of the art arena, and then after we could go sightseeing." He grinned widely at the thought of touring London with Harry.

In excitement, Louis' pinky involuntarily fiddled and hooked into Harry's bracelet. Harry backed away from the gesture. "Mum's watching through that window."

Louis nodded, grin fading. "Okay , I'm - I'm sorry."

Niall blew hard. "Look, it's only gonna be an hour. They have a TV, food and the chairs can recline."

Harry bit his lip and looked them square in the eyes.

"Okay but uh- I'm gonna have put the blindfold back on." He looked at Louis with fright one last time before slapping the thing on.

Louis took an arm, Niall took the other, and they carefully headed up the ramp.

Up inside, Niall sent Harry in first by the window and took the end seat.
