School starts for me next week... 😭😭 But anyways, enjoy this one!!

~~~~~

You were sitting at your kitchen table at like 5:55 am eating the eggs and sausage you had made yourself. The reason that you were up this early was because you were actually going on tour with the boys, since Louis was your long distance boyfriend, and you had to be at the airport in time to catch the flight in order to meet up with the bus and the other lads. Liam was actually the one picking you up this early morning because his house was closet to yours. (It was like two hours away, but still.)

Taking note of the time, you quickly finished your breakfast and cleaned everything up. Just when you had finished washing off your dishes, you heard a knock at the door. It was Liam. You swung the door wide open and he greeted you with a hug. Apart from Louis, obviously, Liam was probably the closest to you. "Ready to go?" he asked you.

"Yep," you replied sort of faintly.

"Ya alright?" He asked noticing the distant look on your face.

"Yeah. Totally." That was a lie. The truth was that you actually get extremely motion sick in different situations similar to this and didn't want Liam to know. Plus, you and him were going to be driving on some back roads in order to get to the airport sooner, which weren't the smoothest or best for motion sickness. You also never thought to take any medication for it which only made it worse most times.

"Okay then. Let's head out!" Liam grabbed your carry-on while you grabbed your purse.

~~~~~

Five minutes into the three-hour drive and you were already starting to feel the effects of the rough roads. You decided to distract yourself from it. "Do you mind if I... uhh..." You asked Liam as you pulled your earphones out of your bag.

"No, go right ahead love!" He smiled at you. He didn't seem to suspect that anything was wrong with you, which was a good thing.

You then plugged the headphones into your phone, put them in your ears, and then closed your eyes.

~~~~~

You must have fallen asleep because when you opened your eyes again, the sun was already out. (It was still dark out when you had left that morning.) Then everything came back to you when the car ran over a bump in the road making you cringe to yourself. You took your earphones out and sat up. "Hey sleepy head," Liam teased.

"Yeah, umm... how much longer?" You asked him ignoring his joke.

"About two and a half more hours." You didn't reply to this. You were afraid that if you were to open your mouth right now, you'd lose your breakfast, so you just nodded then leaned your head on the window. Liam briefly glanced at you then turned his focus back on the road.

Not too shortly after that, you stated to feel that sensation that you get in your mouth when you're about to get sick. You closed your eyes and tried to shallow the awful feeling away, but that didn't help. In fact, it only made the feeling worse. You shot up in your seat not knowing what to do next. Again, you were afraid that if you opened your mouth, something other than speaking would hapoen. You hoped Liam would notice and do something. Fortunately, he did.

Almost immediately Liam stated to pull off on the side of the road. You were already starting to get sick as you flew the door open and took some steps away from the car. You bent down and continued to lose your breakfast on the grass.

You heard the other car door shut and a few seconds later Liam was at your side brushing then holding your hair out of your face and rubbing your back.

~~~~~

When it was all over and the dry heaving had subsided, you leaned back into Liam's strong arms. "I'm sorry," you finally got out starting to cry a little.

"Shh. It's okay, y/n. It's not your fault," Liam assured you. You both sat there like that in silence for a few minutes before Liam added, "you ready to get back in the car now?" You nodded weakly, then Liam helped you up and get back into the little car.

Once back in the car, you started to cry again. "What's wrong?" Liam asked sweetly.

"I really should have told you sooner." You could barely speak you were crying so hard.

"Aww, y/n, like I said it's not your fault. You can't help it. And stop crying, you're gonna make yourself sick again." Liam took one hand off the wheel and patted your shoulder. "Hare. I've got an idea," he said noticing a small rest area coming up.

Liam then pulled into the parking lot. "Wait here," he instructed you as he went inside the tiny shop.

~~~~~

Liam came back with a ginger ale, a water, and some pretzels for you. "How'd you know to pull over? I never said anything" you asked taking the soda from him.

"Louis told me."

"Oh," you said. To be honest, the only other people who really knew about your motion sickness were like your close friends, Louis, since you had been on a few other trips with him, and like your family, but that's it. You really just didn't like people knowing about it.

The rest of the ride to the airport was awful. The ginger ake wasn't working and like every fifteen minutes, Liam would have to stop and pull over for you. You almost missed your flight because of it.

Fortunately though you didn't get sick on the plane as much as you did in the car.

~~~~~

When the plane had finally landed and you and Liam were walking through the airport, you spotted Louis. He must of seen you first though because as soon as you did spot him, he was already running up to you. "You okay babe?" he asked with a worried tone after noticing your pale complexion.

"She didn't have the best time on the road today," Liam filled in for you.

"Aww baby." Louis wraped his arms around you and pulled you in for a hug. "You know I keep telling you to take some medicine for it.

"I know," you sighed knowing your boyfriend was right.

Just then a familiar voice was heard. It was Niall laughing with Zayn. "Hey guys!"he stated in his cheery voice. "Vas happen'?" Zayn added.

"You alright y/n? You don't well." Niall's smile quickly faded into a frown when he saw how exhausted you appeared.

"Yeah. Just, umm, get a litter motion sick I guess," you mumbled.

"Aww man." Niall put his arms around you in sort of an awkward hug. Niall loved his friends and absolutely hated to see any of them sick or whatever.

After a few more moments of catching up, Harry then arrived to the airport to pick the rest of the lads up and drive them to where the bus was.

"Why don't ya sit in da front with Harry?" Zayn suggested when Harry had pulled up.

"Is everything alright?" Harry asked wondering what Zayn had ment by that. Again Liam had to fill in the lad on the situation.

The drive to the place where the bus was located went pretty smooth overall, except for stopping once to let you get sick though there was nothing left in your stomach at this point.

Once at the bus, you received some pills and sea bands from the managers of the boys' tour to help you with the motion sickness. Luckily, the medicine and sea bands worked and you were able to enjoy the rest of the tour with the lads.

Hey y'all. Hope you enjoyed this one. As you can already tell, it was a little longer than my other one shots on here, but I feel like I owe it to you. So, sorry that I haven't updated in like a week and a half. I was at the beach with my family and didn't have a lot of time to right. I'm going to try to keep y'all updated a few times every week now. But again, school starts for me next week, so I'll do my best to keep y'all updated with new releases, but it may openly come down to one-two new stories a week.

Also, stay safe during this crazy and confusing time! Love y'all!
Xoxo
