Chapter 163

Kelsey POV

When Deb pulls the car into the drive way it's already ten in the evening. We were stuck in traffic for legit two hours. Two hours and then my phone died so I couldn't even text Niall and get some distraction. Instead I had to listen to Nate whining about how badly he had to go to toilet. We ignored him. At least we tried until he actually started crying. Like a baby.

When the traffic finally cleared, the next thing we did was stopping at a service station so Nate would stop crying. I stayed in the car, tired and exhausted. I've never thought that a day, no a few hours with my family would be so stressful.

When Deb and Nate (hand in hand) came back, Nate was wearing a big, satisfied grin on his face. "Look what mama bought me?" Ice-cream. And where was mine?

"And what about me?" I pouted. I couldn't believe that he only thought of himself and totally forgot about me. Great family I have.

"Nate was too lazy to carry two so I have yours here." Deb gave me wink and handed me a twister. A twister. I think I haven't had a twister ice-cream in years.

"Thank you, Deb. Oh and I've totally forgot to thank you earlier, I mean for inviting Niall. I'm pretty sure he enjoyed spending time with you and I." I looked over my shoulder and glared at Nate, who had stopped licking his ice-cream.

"And what about me? I thought Niall and I were friends?" He sounded sad and disappointed.

"You are. I was just joking. Because you were mean to me."

Nate didn't say another word, but only raised one of his eyebrows and I got the message. "Don't mess with me girl."

So I nodded and put my focus back on Deb who was still smiling and talking about Niall. "He is such a good boy. I really like him. He should come and visit us. Or he can even go on a holiday with us." I was shocked. A holiday? With my family? And Niall? Never ever. I would have to share him with Deb and Nate and I don't like sharing, obviously.

"Oh yes Niall and I could sleep in the same room and he could tell me horror stories." Nate cheered in the back of the car. I didn't have to turn around to check if he was happy, I already knew. "Please ask him, Kelsey. Please." The little boy begged but I only shook my head.

"Sorry to disappoint you but I doubt Niall even has time for a summer holiday and even if he had he wouldn't be sharing a room with you but with me." As if I would let Niall stay with Nate. Little kids and their silly imagination.

"We'll see." Deb announced and turned on the engine to bring us back on the road. At some point I eventually did fall asleep, this time dreaming about something that actually happened. Not too long ago.

I wished we would have kissed before I got out of the car and left him. But it wasn't the right thing to do. There were fans not far away and I know how Niall likes to keep everything private. And that moment we shared wasn't private at all. Preston was in the driver's seat and even though he was busy with typing something on his phone, I felt being watched. So when I tugged my arms around him, I went for his cheeks and placed a kiss there. I carefully stroked his hair and told him that I will call him as soon as I were home.

It was strange to see Niall being approached by fans. It happened out of nowhere. First it was only one girl who asked for a picture and then more and more came over. He even looked at me, checking if it was okay for me that he was going to take pictures with fans. How could I say no, although I wish I could have. I didn't only have to share him with my family, with the other boys of One Direction but also with thousands of fans (mostly female ones). It made me somewhat sick, and it still does. How can I ever be okay with that?
