Inseparable

I paced anxiously at the airport with the small white sign designated for Leah. Hopeful families are waiting by the doors for the same reason I am, to wait for the plane to land. I slide down in one of the uncomfortable chairs and throw my sign to the side.

The cramped building shudders and an airplane flies over head and swiftly lands on the runway. I can't help it, I run to the window and press my face on the cool glass. I feel like a small child whose parent's can't control her. They unfold everything and the stairs extend, creating a pathway for the passengers.

I turn back around and eagerly push myself through the thick crowd until I reach the front. A man grunts beside me and I realize that I bumped into him on my run up here.

"Sorry," I mutter, then turning back to the doors. They slide open a few minutes later and Leah's face is the first one I see. She drops her bags a few feet away and starts in a dead sprint toward me.

"Leah!" I squeal when she reaches me. She practically jumps into my arms, her hair snapping in my face when she does.

When we part, she immediately grabs her bags and pulls me to the car. I sit in the drivers seat and look across the console at Leah. She flattens her blond hair from the rain and clears her throat dramatically.

"So how was life without me?" She flips her hair and smiles.

"Boring. Enough about me, how did the trip go?" I ask eagerly and set my elbow on the console.

"It was nice. We went camping and went to a cookout with long lost relatives. It was nice being home but I couldn't wait to get back to New York." She sighs and looks at a loose thread on her sweater.

I shove the keys in the ignition and start the car. We pull out of the parking lot and down the street to a McDonald's.

"I'm starving." Leah mentions when she unbuckles her seat belt. Just as I step out the car, my phone rings and a picture of Harry pops onto the screen.

Leah looks at me then back at the restaurant. I know she's hungry after her plane ride so I nod for her to go ahead and she skips across the parking lot. I swipe answer and hold the phone up to my ear.

"Hello?"

"Hello, sweetness." Harry's voice coos on the other end, making my heart flutter.

I look up at the sky and frown. "What time is it there?"

"Uh," there's movement in the back ground and then his breath is back on the other end. "It's 10:00. We just got done with rehearsal."

I open my mouth to respond but Louis's voice yells in the behind him.

"Is that Lana?"

"Yes it is." Harry answers harshly.

"Let me hold it." Louis complains.

"No, I'm-" Harry goes silent and it's taken by another person.

"Hi, Lana." I can hear Louis smiling through the phone.

"Hey."

"So how's it going, sweet cheeks?" My cheeks flush at the word.

"Don't call me that." I tease knowing Harry will be angry if he does.

"Give me back the fucking phone." Harry growls.

"Gotta go." Louis says quickly before handing it back over to Harry.

"Sorry about that." He mumbles.

"It's fine." I laugh. I look beside me and see Leah's face staring at me. She whispers come on and waves her hand towards her.

"Listen, I have to go." I say sadly. I don't want to leave but Leah has been gone for a long time and she wants to talk to me.

"Okay. I'll talk to you tomorrow morning." He says precisely. He makes a kissy sound before hitting end and the other line going dead. I turn off my phone and slide it into my back pocket before running inside to greet Leah.
