“(Y/N)! Baby, wake up! Wake up! Guess what happened!” You heard Niall’s excited voice as he jumped on the mattress and ripped the blanket off of you. He knelt down beside you and tugged on your arm, trying to motivate you. “C’mon, get up. You can sleep later,” He said, and you peeled your eyes open to see him looking down at you with a toothy grin. He flailed his arms and squealed with excitement before crawling off of the bed. You rolled your eyes but let out a giggle as you forced yourself into a sitting position. You rubbed the sleep from your eyes while Niall hopped around and hummed a little tune.

“Calm down,” You said in a cracked, sleepy voice.

Niall shook his head and crossed the room to you, grabbing your hand and pulling you to your feet. “I’ve waited all year for this!” He exclaimed. He pulled you out into the hallway, and led you downstairs, where he pointed to the window. He jumped up and down again and shouted, “Baby, it’s snowing!”

You chuckled and turned to him, watching while he jumped. “Niall, are you kidding me?” You flatly asked before chuckling again. “I know you’ve seen snow before,” You added, and he stopped jumping.

He inhaled heavily in attempt to catch the breath he lost as he smiled. “I know, but it doesn’t matter. Aren’t you excited?! What should we do first? Have a snowball fight or build a snowman?” He asked while he grabbed a pair of boots and tugged them onto his feet. He glanced up at you, as if waiting for your answer.

With a shrug, you said, “I’d rather wake up first.” Niall’s eyebrows furrowed and he looked almost hurt by your response. You sighed and joined him as he plopped down on the couch. He glared at you until you giggled and said, “Sweetheart, I promise we can play in the snow. Just give me a few minutes, okay? How about I make some hot chocolate to hold you over?”

The expression on his face softened and he slowly nodded. “I guess. Can you put marshmallows in it?” He asked in a quiet, almost shy voice.

You smiled and leaned over to peck the side of his face. “Only for you,” You whispered before bringing yourself to your feet and heading for the kitchen. Once there, you grabbed two mugs from the cupboard and found two packs of hot chocolate.

While that was heating, you found a bag of mini marshmallows and set it out on the counter. When the hot chocolates were ready, you dropped a handful of mini marshmallows into Niall’s mug before carrying the two mugs out. As you handed Niall his mug, you mumbled, “Sometimes I swear I’m dating a ten year old.”

You sat down next to him and placed your mug on the coffee table in front of you, where Niall was resting his feet. He quickly moved them, however. You leaned back and folded your arms in your lap while Niall took tiny sips from his mug as to not burn his mouth. He licked his tongue over his lips and let out a sigh of content. “You know what?” He started. He turned and faced you as he sucked a marshmallow out of his mug. “Maybe we should make a fort out of snow. We can build a special little snow fort for just the two of us. What do you think?”

“I think that’s a wonderful idea,” You told him before reaching over and taking his hand in yours. He massaged the palm of your hand with his thumb and looked at you with a faint smile on his lips. “I didn’t know snow was such an excitement for you.”

He laughed and sucked another marshmallow out of his mug. “I didn’t either,” He said, before trialing his eyes up to meet yours. He squeezed your hand in his and added, “Until I realized that there’s no other person in the world that I would rather make a snowman with than you.”

**Haha I love that ending. Thanks for reading!**
