“Bye Mum, I’ll see you in a couple of days.” I said pressing a kiss to her cheek before pulling Luce into a hug. She began to pout at me.

“Stop it.” I warned her. A small smile fell across her face before she giggled. Laughing, I pressed a kiss to her cheek then grabbed my bag and walked out the front door.

“So how excited are you for Paris?” Skye practically yelled at me the moment I got in the car. I stared at her shocked for a moment.

“Skye is obviously excited.” Tate explained from the seat next to me making me laugh.

“I’m heaps excited.” I let her know. She smiled in acceptance before turning to face the road and turned up the music extremely loud. Danielle shot her an annoyed look before driving out of the driveway.

“Where are the boys?” I asked them all.

“They took Harry’s car and are meeting us there.” Eleanor let me know from the other side of Tate.

We kept up conversation and loud annoying singing all the way to the airport. Laughing all five of us girls practically fell out of the car next to the boy’s parked car. They climbed out as well and watched us amused.

“You all had fun then?” Niall asked, walking over and wrapping an arm around Tate.

“Hey,” I turned instantly at the voice to come face to face with Zayn.

“Hey you.” I smiled brightly at him. My fingers itching to grab his hand.

“I’m glad you could come.” He said softly, moving closer to stand near me. My smile grew as I tilted my head to look up at him. A cough made in our vicinity made us both snap back to reality. I turned to see Liam looking at us pointedly. Sighing I took a step back from Zayn and stood closer to Skye, who wrapped her arm around my waist sympathetically.

I watched Zayn’s face lose its emotion as he continued to stare at me. It always annoyed me how easily he could hide his emotion whereas I felt like I was an open book most of the time. Not taking my eyes from Zayn, I leant further into Skye enjoying the comfort.

“Security will take you girls threw first before the rest of us boys go.” Harry explained. Skye and I looked around, confused.

“But no one’s even here babe.” Skye said after neither of us noticed any screaming fans.

“This is a private car park. They will be there as soon as we enter the airport.” Harry clarified, causing her to frown.

“It’s easier if we get you girls in and ready before they go even crazier for us.” Niall explained.

“Well someone thinks they’re all important.” Tate teased him making him laugh.

I turned to Zayn and smiled softly, I received a wink in return before Skye grabbed my hand and began tugging me away in the direction of the security guards.

We were centred in between all of them and ushered forwards. My eyes widened in surprise as the screams reached my ear. There were young girls everywhere.

I was used to paparazzi and some fans of mine have asked for pictures before but my fan base was nothing compared to this. There were teenage girls everywhere, screaming, jumping and crying. It was absolutely crazy. I couldn’t even process the faces around me as I was jostled by our guards through the crowd of girls.

“You okay?” Skye yelled into my ear, squeezing my hand tightly. I glanced at her with wide eyes and nodded slightly. The screams were beginning to hurt my ears.

I watched in surprise as Tate pushed her way out of security to sign a few fans asking for her. Our security split up and some stayed with her as the rest of us were continuously lead through the airport towards baggage check.

“That is crazy.” I said out loud the moment we distanced ourselves from the fans as they were no longer allowed to follow us.

“You wait until the boys come.” Eleanor said, lifting her bag up onto the table to be scanned. I followed behind her.

“I hope we’re out of hearing range before that happens.” Skye commented.

“Yeah that will happen when we’re in Paris.” El joked with her.

“Can you see Tate?” Dani asked looking back at the crowd of girls. We all shook our heads. There were a few loud screams from one area making us all look over to see Tate and her security guards pushing through the girls and making their way towards us. Tate was looking quite frazzled.

“What happened?” Dani asked immediately.

“Oh just some fans started being rude and then some of my fans tried to back me up and they almost started a fight.” Tate said waving us off and lifting her bag up. I bit my lip and glanced towards the fans worriedly. I would be lying to say they weren’t scary. Who in their right mind would be willing to go into that every day and call it a job?

El nudged me when my bag was ready. I pulled it off just as louder screams erupted from the crowd. I couldn’t believe that these girls could get any louder; I thought they were loud enough when we passed through.

“The boys.” Skye stated unnecessarily as we all pulled our bags off the table and stood back slightly trying to find the boys in the crowd of girls.

We stood there for awhile as my heart started to race searching for any familiar faces in the crowd. It was taking them a lot longer to get through then it took us.

Eventually Louis appeared first, with a tight hold on his bag, he pushed his way through the last of the crowd with a guards help. He glanced towards us and his face relaxed slightly before he turned around and watched his security guards head back into the crowd of girls. None of us could walk forward and meet him as we had already moved to the opposite side of baggage check.

He began to walk towards us, I could feel his eyes searching over every one of us like he was making sure none of us were hurt.

“They’re coming.” Louis mouthed to us as he dumped his bag on the table and looked back towards the crowd with worry across his face.

The next to appear was Niall surrounded by about five guards. He looked whiter than usual and he was panting a bit. Louis walked back to him and took his bag before leading him towards us.

Tate moved forward instantly, trying to get as close to Niall as possible.

Screams grew impossibly louder making us all turn to look at the screaming fans just as Liam and Zayn appeared both holding onto Harry and pulling him through the rest of the crowd. The security guards instantly rushed them forwards as the boys all chucked their bags down and headed towards us. Harry seemed to be in the worse state other than Niall.

“What happened?” Skye instantly said the moment we met them.

“We got separated when we tried to sign a few things.” Liam explained, wrapping an arm around Dani.

“Harry got attacked.” Zayn said casually. Smiling at me softly, he received one in return as I refrained from pulling him into a hug and checking to make sure he was okay.

I instead turned my attention to Skye fussing over Harry as he held his arm slightly.

“I just got scratched by a fan, that’s all. They didn’t attack me.” Harry said throwing Zayn a glare, who snickered in response.

“Honestly, one day they’re going to kill you.” Skye said biting her lip and staring at Harry, clearly upset.

“They love us too much for that.” Louis smiled at her.

“Are you okay?” Zayn asked me softly, pulling me out of everyone’s conversation. “You look a little shaken up.”

“I’m fine. I just haven’t seen so many screaming girls before. They’re scary. And you took ages to get through.” I said turning my attention to him. He smiled down at me and stepped a bit closer before nudging us behind the group so no one would be able to see us as clearly.

“I’m sorry you had to go through it.” He whispered softly. “Sorry for making you worry about me.”

I scoffed at the smirk that slid across his face at that part. Rolling my eyes, I stepped back away from him, adding distance between us. Just because the fans couldn’t see us, didn’t mean the paparazzi wouldn’t be able to.

“Don’t worry. We’re getting on a private plane.” Dani said grabbing my arm and dragging me towards it. I looked at Zayn surprised before allowing Dani to pull me through after getting my ticket checked.

“Our bags.” I pointed out to Dani.

“I’m sure Zayn has yours.” She shrugged her eyes set intently on the plane. I laughed at her and followed her on.

“The plane’s not going to leave any earlier just because we’re on here ready.” Louis teased Dani as the rest got on. I laughed as she smacked Louis arm before taking a seat. I chose the seat across from her and was immediately joined by Eleanor next to me.

“God this is comfy.” She squirmed in her seat and buried herself down in the chair more. I watched as Niall, Harry, Skye and Tate sat together on the opposite side of us. Zayn took the seat behind me.

“Go on.” Eleanor giggled, moving her feet so I could slip past. Blushing darkly I stood up and quickly moved around her to the seat next to Zayn. He looked up at me innocently as I bit my lip and stared back down at him.

Rolling his eyes, his hand moved forward to grab mine and guide me down to the seat. I smiled at him shyly as he reached over and pressed a soft kiss to my lips. Closing my eyes I enjoyed the feeling of his lips ghosting over mine. The moment he pulled away his nose nudged against mine making my eyes flutter open before he pressed a small kiss to my lips.

“Awe!” We both turned to see Skye and Eleanor peering over the seats at us. I blushed darkly as Eleanor sat down but Harry had to pull Skye down. I turned and buried my head in embarrassment in Zayn’s shoulder. It was different to be able to kiss Zayn in front of people, to be able to show our feeling for each other in front of people was something I wanted to get used to. However, I didn’t think I would ever get the chance to.

“Hey,” Zayn nudged me as I frowned. He pressed another kiss to my lips before burying his head in my neck. I smiled at softly at the feeling of his warm breath on my neck. Before long I could feel his breathing getting deeper and more even and I knew he had fallen asleep.

Smiling, I glanced down at him and placed a small kiss to his head.

“I swear the plane puts him to sleep.” Louis said shaking his head at us on his way to the toilet. I smiled back at him before resting my head on Zayn’s head and letting my eyes flutter closed. If Zayn was going to get some sleep, I may as well join him.

As the smell of Zayn clouded around me, my breathing soon matched his.
