L: We aren't doing gifts this year at Christmas

N: WHY?!?!

L: There are too many people now that everyone has a girlfriend.

Li: Except you

L: Yes Liam, thank you for that

Z: I agree with Louis

N: Is this because last year I gave Liam his phone submerged in pudding?

H: Do I even wanna know?

Li: I still hate you for that, I had to get a whole new phone.

Z: No Harry, you don't wanna know

L: Yes, that may also be an underlying cause.

N: You guys are no fun

L: No gifts. End of story. My house, December 19th. 5:30 p.m.

N: Sounds like a booty call

Z: How many booty calls have you been called to exactly Niall?

N: A lot, thank you very much

L: And Niall, please refrain from shoving Ice down Liam's pants again.

Li: My dick still isn't all the way thawed.

Z: Please just stop talking, nobody wants to hear about your dick Liam

Li: Debatable.

I laugh to myself at the irony and put on a pair of jeans. Attempting to brush my hair out of the way. I grab the plate of cookies. I'm having Liam and Ashleigh pick me up. Since I know Louis is probably busy getting the party ready. I jog downstairs and hit the floor right when-
