"Shhhhh, you'll wake them!"

"Oh hush up Liam, let me just get one more picture!"

"Lou, you've taken like twenty!"

"Li-"

"Turn the camera on its side, like this...you'll get their bodies in the frame as well."

"Harry, you're a genius!"

I buried my face deeper in to Niall's neck. The dry mud masked his scent, making him smell like smoke and mint. I inhaled deeply liking the smell. Niall tightened his grip abound me, drawing me closer, if that's even possible.

"I just want to get one good one that i can post on twi-" Louis was cut off.

"look at their legs! How they're all tangled together, so adorable." Liam gawked.

God, these boys where being loud. It's like 8 in the morning!

"Oi! Lads what are you do-" an Irish accent sang.

"SHHHHHHHHH!"

"Niall! You'll wake them."

"Yeah, shut it Niall!"

Niall? That was weird.

"Who- awwww they are so adorable!" and Irish accent sang. If Niall wasn't the person who I was snuggling up to, than who's arms were wrapped around me right now?

I slowly opened my eyed, afraid of what I would find. Four faces stared down at me. Louis had his iPone in hand, he looked at me as if he just saw a teddy bear hug a rainbow. Harry had his hands clasped under his chin smiling widely down at us. Liam rested his elbow on the back of the couch while holding up his chin with his hands, he too had a huge smile plastered on his face. And Niall, oh Niall he had a smile on as well but their was a hint of worry behind his crystal lake eyes. I dreaded seeing Niall's face staring back at me, because that only meant one thing. I hesitantly looked down at the person whom I was tangled with. Zayn's sleeping face lay under me. At first I was sick to my stomach at the fact that Zayn was wrapped around me, but then I relaxed as I thought of the comfort and security his touch brought. He had dried mud all over his face an neck, his white t-shirt was made dirty by the mud off my clothes. His raven hair wasn't in it's usual quiff, instead it lay flat again his forehead, I liked his hair like that. He had stubble covering his chin, jaw, and above his lip. He looked peaceful and stress free.

"Zayn?" I whispered, barley audible. It was more of a clarification for me rather than to wake him. Nevertheless, his eyes fluttered open. He looked up at me through thick black lashes as the morning light peered through the window turning his dark eyes to a liquid carmel color.

He stared at me, his eyes were unfocused for a second, then they focused on my lips before sliding up to my eyes. I searched his face. How had we ended up like this? The last thing I remember was Niall carrying me home last night. He seemed to notice my confusion because he raised his eye brow and shrugged slightly. He opened his mouth as if to say something but quickly shut it when a throat was cleared. I snapped my head in the direction to the noise. I felt Zayn's eyes on me for a few more seconds before turning his head at the four boys standing awkwardly in front of the couch.

Liam twitched his shoe back in fourth. Niall smacked his lips together repeatedly, producing popping noises. And Harry pretended to play himself in a thumb war while Louis sniffed in the silent air.

"uh..." Louis shifted his eyes, rubbing the back of his neck.

"...so..." Harry looked between Zayn and me.
