She tastes like wine and she's warm, so I push her down on the couch until I'm between her and the couch and she's almost over me.

I know that I should have probably talked to Zayn about it first, but it's Rey, for fuck's sake. I can't even remember the first time I started liking her more than despising her.

And she does a thing with her tongue that makes my dick twitch in my pants every single fucking time, fuck.

"Um, do you want us to leave the room?" Sophia asks and Rey sits back up properly.

"No, sorry." She apologizes.

"We're using my lip balm for an extra pawn." Sophia explains. "I'm with Liam, you're with Niall, then there's Zayn and Perrie and Louis with Harry. You all know the game, right?"

Rey nods and then turns to look at me. "Are you ready to fucking crush them? Because you know I can't stand to lose."

My heart jumps in my chest.

I love you

"Fuck yeah." I say and high five her before I also sit up properly so I can play.

I ignore the bubbling feeling in my stomach; a mix of happiness, fear and something I can't quite place. But for now, it's okay.

"Are you paying attention?" Rey asks me, getting me out of my thoughts.

I nod. "Always."

We're okay.

Rey's POV

I take a card from the board and look at the first drawing task. Of course Niall doesn't want to start slow and tells me to go direct for the five point card. I have to draw a fucking piano string and Niall has to guess it, so basically we're fucked.

I start out by drawing a few piano keys and then a string, hoping that Niall will get it because I'm shit at drawing.

"Piano??"

I nod, motioning for him to keep guessing.

"Piano strings!"

"YES!" I exclaim excitedly and high-five him.

Jake and Luke are the only ones who also advance with five points, while the rest are still at the starting point.

"Okay, concentrate. You know this." Niall says and gets up as he looks down at the five-point card. He has to mime something and I have absolutely no idea what that is.

He thinks for a second before Sophia turns the hourglass around and the time starts. 

"Bag? Sack?" I ask, looking at the way he's bending over and holding his hands up to his shoulder. He nods and takes his hands over his head to mime a house.

"House? Santa Claus! Oh my God, CHIMNEY!" I yell and he screams, nodding.

We advance another five points.

"How did you get chimney from that?" Perrie asks and shakes her head.

"It's called being disgusting." Jake agrees and I flip him off as Niall sits back down next to me.

"We need to beat them, now focus." Jake tells Luke as he sits up to mime something.

I don't really pay attention, because Niall's hand is on my thigh and he smells like heaven next to me and I can't believe that we're...that we are.

Thirty minutes later, we're neck in neck with Jake and Luke, Harry and Louis following closely behind.

"Fuck, I have to draw now?" Niall groans, looking at the four-point task.
