If You Would [h.s.] HOLD

Twenty-Eight

Me, Mak, and the boys are all due to go to the next tour state, Texas. I was actually pretty excited for this one. They rescheduled the tour in California for the very end of the tour, which is in a few days. I'm not sure why they didn't just push back the rest of the tour since we are already here but there was something with reserved stadiums blah blah blah.

My work is not very happy that I'm taking off so many days, but they're too short staffed to fire me so I guess I'm in luck.

For the first time ever we are all on one plane together. Of course it's just us because they have their private planes so we don't have any annoying babies and sweaty men.

Me and Harry sit together, Liam and Niall sit together, Zayn sits in the back, brooding by himself. Mak sits across from me, and Louis sits next to her, joining us.

Mak has a full face of makeup on, but even under all of that I can tell she's blushing. No one else would be able to see, but I can just feel it coming off of her. She definitely has a crush on Louis. The only question is, is it a real crush or a celebrity crush? Knowing Mak, she wouldn't know the difference. She's so infatuated with the idea of a great love that she is ready to jump at the opportunity whenever there's a sliver of a chance of one.

I look at her and she looks at me. We have a small conversation with our eyes, mostly containing of me asking what's up with her and her saying that she'll talk to me about it later.

At least she's not immediately dismissing it.

Harry nudges my arm with his elbow.

"Are you excited?" He almost whispers to me. I smile up at him and nod.

"Of course! Plus, I've never been to Texas." I shift in my seat so my back is leaning against the plane wall, I pull my legs up into the seat so I'm facing towards him completely.

"Me neither. I don't think any of the mates have." He looks at Louis for conformation. He nods.

"Yeah. We have toured in America before but never here specifically." He shrugs and crosses his arms. In the process his arm brushed Maks and she shivers. They look at each other for a few seconds, oblivious to me and Harry staring at them, before snapping out of it.

"Uhm. I have to pee." Mak quickly gets up and goes to the bathroom. Her face is contorted like she was about to cry. I go to stand up but Louis puts his hand up to stop me, which surprises me.

"I'll, uh, make sure she's okay." He stands up and walks away calmly. As soon as he thinks he's out of our eye sight he picks up his pace and follows her into the bathroom. And then it was silent.

"What the fuck." I hear Liam say from the seats behind us. I pop my head to look behind me.

"I know right? What the hell was that?" I question. We all look at each other, with the exception of Zayn.

"I don't know, but I don't like it." Harry says from behind me.

"Uhm, me neither! She has a boyfriend. I don't know what she thinks she's doing." I shake my head in slight disappointment. I should have never let them share that room.

"No not because of that, Louis isn't exactly.... boyfriend material? He's kind of a fuck em' and dash kinda guy. To put it lightly." He shrugs.

My eyes widen slightly. I put my hand against my forehead.

"Jesus Christ."

"I ship it." Niall speaks up. We all look at him and shake our heads.

"Nope. No way. I gotta shake some sense into that girl. She probably thinks she's in love or something. And Hunter treats her really well. They've been together for like, two years." I rant.
