Harry's Pov

I wake up that morning freezing cold, with a dry mouth and a headache. The sun is already pouring through the un-shut curtains, and judging by the quietness of the house it's about 11am. I turn to pick up my phone and quickly realise I can't move my legs, I panic slightly and look down, I sigh in relief when I see it's just louis curled up with his legs over mine. I debate staying in bed longer, but decide against it when my stomach rumbles and push Louis's legs off me.
"What?" He mumbles, but I ignore him and tell him to shush.
I throw on a shirt and grab my phone from my nightstand, and make my way down to the kitchen to get breakfast.

I cross the front room picking up mugs of half drank tea and sigh to myself. Mum must have been in a rush this morning. When I get to the kitchen I tip the tea down the sink and put the mug in the bowl, then I fill the kettle and flip it on and check my phone. Only a few missed messages, one from Eleanor asking if I got home okay and one from Niall, but he must have been drunk when he sent it and I'm too tired to try to make it out. Something about Ashton and Louis.
I'm just filling the mugs with water as Louis enters the kitchen. 
"Morning" I smile, "have you heard from your mum?"
He pulls a face and gets his phone;
"Yeah, she said not to worry about the key and she'll leave the Back door unlocked" he replied. "Mind if I leave the key that I 'lost' here?" I chuckle and nod,
"Sure, leave it in my room and I'll give it to you when you lose the next one" I say, earning a laugh from Louis as he crosses the kitchen to grab his tea, still scrolling through his phone."

"oh my god Haz!" He suddenly gasped, starting to laugh.
"What?" I say rushing over to him and looking over his shoulder at his phone reading the message he's showing me.
"Louis I don't speak drunk Niall" I say,
"No the one underneath that!" He responds scrolling down slightly.
"Oh my god!" I shout joining Louis's laughter after reading the correct text.

Niall:
-woke up in Ashtons bed.
-can't find my boxers.
-his mums in, we're going out the window.
-are you at Hazza's house? -We're on our way:)

"Guess I'm having guests over, how long do you recon they'll be?" I ask.
Louis shrugs, "shouldn't be too long, I'll remind them to dodge the cameras" he replies. I nod and root through the kitchen draws for the spare phone charger, my phone is almost dead. Is it awkward between me and louis? Or am I just being awkward? Louis doesn't seem bothered, he's taking his tea through to the living room and flicking the tv onto a cartoon channel, then changing it again and settling on 'good luck Charlie'. I scoff as I go in to join him and he elbows me in the ribs as I sit down next to him. "Shut up Haz, we all know it's your favourite" he says laughing. We watch in silence for a few minutes before hearing a thud coming from my room, moments later it's followed by a second thud and Niall's laughter. Then Niall is dragging Ashton, who's pouting and holding his rib, down the stairs by his hand.
As they enter the room Louis picks up his tea, and in an imitation that would do George Weasley proud, he says
"Moorrning."
