Cait's POV.

caittommo: Guess who has a plane to catch? Clue: it's me.✈️⏰

I posted a selfie of myself with rather bed head looking hair.

"Babe, you're beautiful and I'm glad you're showing that to the world but we really need to go. Our cars here." Harry smirks standing at the front door.

I throw my phone in my bag and pick my book up before making my way over to him. "Off we go, travelling again." I kiss him before opening the front door.

We didn't sit too close to each other in the car, we knew once we got out at the airport we'd get bombarded by fans.

"So we're going to wait until we feel comfortable enough to tell the boys?" Harry asks as we stop at a red light.

I nod. "Plus, Louis and I aren't great at the moment so I think it would only add fuel to the fire."

Harry nods in agreement. "When we both think it's time, we'll do it."

I nod.

"This means we'll have to be all sneaky and unassuming."

"Don't you think that's fun?" I raise an eyebrow. I play with his fingers. "The thought of being caught at any moment?"

"You, Miss Tomlinson have a dark side."

I laugh nudging him. "You know it'll be fun, us two having a secret."

His face falls.

"Who have you told?" I sigh.

"Gemma. And my mum. But only those two I promise."

I smile, he's told his mum and sister about me already. "I kind of like that you've told them."

"I told Gemma then she told mum who instantly FaceTimed me wanting to know everything and anything. She's wanted me to find someone for so long."

"And you've found someone?" I smirk holding his hand.

"More than I could have asked for." He says softly as we turn into the airport.

Inside the airport we met the rest of the boys. Harry was particularly a target as we walked through to the airport. Girls grabbing, screaming, shouting. One bodyguard had taken me through, another taking Harry through.

"Dublin, Dublin! Croke Park baby!" Niall chanted walking onto the private plane. Niall sat beside me, Lou Teasdale sat opposite with Harry, Lux sat in his lap.

"I bet it's exciting going home."

"You better believe it, everyone's going to be there, my mam said my entire street has tickets."

I smile at his mood. He was so happy.

I watch as they shut the plane doors, Zayn and Liam had finally joined us. "Where's Louis?" I frown.

"He's flying from Manchester with your family instead of London, he stayed in Doncaster all week so it made more sense." Liam shrugs.

I nod. I was hoping I could have spoken to him on the plane, without everyone being there.

Once we were in Dublin, we were mobbed again, most of the screams for Niall.

"So this is Dublin?" I ask as the rain poured down, grey clouds looming.

"Well, Dublin on a rainy day." I smile at Niall's reply, he even made rain sound happy, the smile didn't quite reach my eyes. Louis hadn't flown with us, and now I was in a car with Niall, Liam and Zayn. Harry had insisted he took the other car with Lou and Lux.

Once at the hotel, I found my room which was huge - far too big for just me and lay straight on the bed. My face in the mattress.

I heard a knock on my door and groaned. "Come in." I called, my voice muffled as I hadn't lifted my head.

"What are you doing?" Harry laughed as he took in my position on the bed as he shut the door.

"Trying to forget the world." I mumble, my face still in the mattress. "Come try it."

I feel him sit beside me, his hand rubbing my back. "You okay baby?"

"Meh."

I sit up opposite Harry, I cross my legs and he takes one of my hands in his, playing with my fingers.

"Lay down with me?"

I nod moving so both of our heads are on the edge of the bed. Harry's long legs reach the other side but mine don't quite. He lifts my head placing his arm under it so my head lays in the crook of his neck.

"You know, you're the only girlfriend I've told my sister and mum about."

"Really?" I turn to look at him.

"Really. Sure there's been exes who have met them. But I've never sat down and gone into detail about any of them. Except for you."

I blush.

"..they asked me what you were like and I couldn't stop talking about you."

I kissed his cheek. "You're the sweetest."

"You know I wasn't blowing you off when I took Lou's car instead of yours? It's just I knew there would be paps and I wanted to hold Lux. Make sure they got in alright."

"I know. That's incredibly sweet. Lux is a very lucky girl, she has 5 uncles watching out for her."

"God help when she starts dating." He jokes.

I smirk. "Louis was like that." I say softly. "He'd always say 'you'll never find a man who can treat you how I want them to' I'd laugh him off but when he started actually threatening boys who were simply looking at me, I knew he was being serious."

"He threatened guys?"

I swallow and nod. "I had a science partner, and he tried to kiss me once. Louis punched him straight in the face when a girl in my class told him."

"Wow." Harry breathed.

"If.." I bite my lip. "If he doesn't like us being.. together.."

Harry understood what I was getting at and tightened his arm around me. "He can punch me in the face as many times as possible. I'll stay by your side."

I smile up at him as he kisses my lips.

"You mean that?"

"Always."

I feel Harry's phone vibrate but he doesn't move to look at it.

"We should probably get ready for tonight, big show ahead and I bet Nialls buzzing." I laugh sitting up.

"Yeah, we've got some interviews with Irish radios as well."

"You go get ready, and I'll see you at the stadium, yes?"

Harry nods but doesn't leave. He looks at me with a pout on his face.

"What's the matter?" I ask genuinely thinking something is wrong.

"Kiss please." His pout deepened.

I rolled my eyes laying back down and taking his face in my hands before kissing him for a good 2 minutes.

"That do?"

"Yes." He laughed slightly out of breath. He jumped off the bed and kissed my forehead. "See you soon baby." And with that he bounced toward the door.

I smile sliding off the bed, standing and stretching before walking over to my suitcase to get my outfit for tonight.

"Oh, Harry!" I call finding his phone on the floor. He must have dropped it when he jumped off the bed.

As I reach my hotel door, the screen lights up with a new text. I don't mean to read it, I just do.

Ellis x : Can't wait to see you tomorrow H! It has been soo long. I've missed you! Xxx
