Arriving back in the UK was a major buzzkill for everyone, they stepped of the plane at Gatwick into the drizzling rain. Will was full of energy after having a delightful sleep on the plane. I hated him

"Come on guys let's get our bags." Will says as he skips like a little girl towards baggage claim.

"I'm tired." I wine as I drag my feet behind them all.

"Come on Khloe I'll give you a piggy back." George says pulling me into a hug. I slowly feel myself melting into his embrace. "Come on I know you're tired, but sooner we get home sooner you can get into bed and sleep." He whispers before peeling away from me and offering his back for me to jump on to. I just rub my eyes and climb on, holding tight.

"Aww you two are cute aren't you." Alex says laughing. "Careful there's no fans that start speculating if this is George or not." After those words leave his mouth I help George pull his hood up and pull mine up as well.

"I will end you." I mutter as I nuzzle into George's neck.

Next think I know is I'm being shaken awake as the taxi we are in pulls up in front of the apartment building. Will explains that George carried me the whole way to the taxi bay while poor Will and Stephen were stuck with my luggage. I didn't even wake up when they shoved me into the back of the taxi.

"Come up with us lads? Crash at ours." Will says to Alex and George after handing the taxi driver the money.

"Sure saves us walking to our building." Alex says with George agreeing. I just slide my hand into George's and lay my head on his shoulder letting out a yawn.

"Let's just get Khloe to bed." Will says looking at me with worry in his eyes. The elevator ride up is silent as I just cuddle into George, I honestly love being able to do this now with no judgement. Of course no one knows the truth about us being together just yet, and it scares me how everyone would react. As Will unlocks the door my knees give out and I nearly collapse to the floor with exhaustion, but George catches me. "Just carry her to her bed I've got the bags." Will says as George picks me up and carries me to my room. He drops me gently on my bed.

"Sleep well KhloBear." He whispers kissing my forehead.

"Noooo." I whine. "Snuggle me bubby."

"What?" He laughs.

"Lie down and cuddle me. Let me fall asleep in your arms you daft boy." I'm that tired I just don't know what's coming out my mouth.

"But the others..." he trails off looking between me and the door.

"Do you even want to be with me? You tell me you wanna fall asleep with me in your arms, and now you don't wanna when we have the choice? Fine be that way." I huff turning round so I'm no longer facing him. It's about three seconds before I feel the bed move next to me as George slides in, He moulds himself to the shape my body is in being the perfect big spoon.

"Never say I don't wanna be with you Khlo, because I do. I really do." He whispers into my hair.

"If happiness starts with H why does mine start with George." I whisper before allowing myself to drift into the darkness of sleep.

*******

"Khloe wake up." I'm getting shaken awake. I open my eyes slowly and glare at...Alex? What? I was so confused. Where's George?

"What?" I say bring my arm up and wiping the sleep away from my eyes.

"George and Will are filming, and I'm bored." Alex moans before slumping on the floor next to my bed.
