The Nanny (Harry Styles)

Chapter 28

August

Zayn was staring at Harry and I, and has been for a good minute now.

"Zayn, what?" I asked, rubbing at my eye.

"Nothing, the two of you look forty years old today, what the hell? You guys up late doing the nas-"

"We do not look forty!" I stopped him before he could finish his thought, rolling my eyes.

"Lane, Harry has been asleep beside you for a good ten minutes and you are on your fourth cup of coffee and it's 5 in the evening. You two need to get out more." Zayn said, laughing. I frowned glancing to my left where Harry was slumped into himself, chin resting on his chest and he snored lightly. I brushed his hair back, chuckling for a moment.

"Noelle has been keeping us beyond busy lately." I shrugged. The kid doesn't want to do anything all summer and August hits and all the sudden we are running around all flipping day to get her to where she needs to go. She has ballet on Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 9, followed by a private lesson because she is interested and Harry Styles is her father. Tennis on Tuesday and Thursday, not a clue as to what time cause those are my days to clean house, so Harry handles it. Also somewhere in there are reading lessons, she is learning to play guitar, and Harry has taken on a new producing project, which means the house is in constant disarray these days. After Noelle's birthday Harry and I tried to go on a date once a week, to really get to know each other better and try to be romantic but it lasted about two weeks until things got too busy.

"I know Noelle is only suppose to sleep over for tonight, but let me take her for the weekend. You two go do something coupley." Zayn said, waving his hands at us.

"We can't do anything coupley. Noelle has a birthday party tomorrow for some little girl we met at the park a while back." I said rubbing my forehead.

Zayn scoffed, "What you think I'm incapable to bring her to a birthday party and act soliciable? I'll drag Anna too. It will be great. Women love me."

Harry snorted from beside me, rubbing his eyes and shaking his head at his friend. "Maybe, but you're absolute shit at being places on time." He said groggily. He was still laying back, looking half asleep.

"Then lie to me and give me a half an hour window." He said easily. I snorted as Harry chuckled.

"You wanna go away for the weekend?" Harry asked me, resting his hand lazily on my lower back.

I thought about it for a moment. We barely got time alone. A weekend of just Harry. I glanced towards him as he was looking at me with hopeful eyes, chewing slightly on his lower lip.

I shrugged, Harry turning to Zayn. "If she is late, I will kill you."

*********
I was still laughing as Harry frowned deeper.

"I swear to god, what is it with the people we know and condoms?" He grumpily asked, grabbing them off the bed, tossing them to the side somewhere.

"Maybe they think you're a poor planner?" I asked, touching some of the rose petals lightly.

If this didn't have Zayn and Anna written all over it, I don't know what did. After explaining to Noelle she got to spend an entire weekend with two people who would spoil her rotten, she wasn't exactly upset. Zayn then shooed us away to shower and said he would be arranging a little trip for us.

Harry explained he would probably be sending us to the small little cabin he had farther north, so when we came down in our regular street clothes, expecting that, Zayn had a conniption.

Turns out Zayn had wanted us to look a little more presentable, because he assumed cameras would be there.

And that's when he shoved us two eurostar tickets to Paris and rushed us out the door.
