"HEY BIRTHDAY BOY WAKEY WAKEY!!" Someone shouted into Harry's ears.

Harry lifted his head from the pillow and rubbed his eyes. He saw a pair of blue eyes looking down at him, "Happy birthday Harold!!" Harry squinted his eyes and he smiled at who he saw.

"Thank you, Niall, when did you get here?" Harry asked, groggily.

"An hour ago, waited so long for this day. Now come on!" Niall answered, pulling Harry out of the bed. Harry stumbled onto his feet and said, "Niall, shush. Louis is sleeping." Niall laughed, "Silly, do you see him next to you?"

Harry then realized that he had woken up alone. He quickly wore a t-shirt over his head and pulled grey sweatpants over his long legs, before Niall could practically carry him out of the room.

Niall dragged him over to the kitchen, where Harry saw two backs facing him. "Boys! He's awake!" Niall's voice boomed into the kitchen.

Both the boys turned with a cake in their hands which read 'Happy 18th Birthday Harry!!' in that shade of blue colour.

"Happy 18th Harry!" Zayn and Liam said in unison

"Happy 18th Harry!" Zayn and Liam said in unison. Harry's face broke into a smile, he loved chocolate cake, "Thank you so much guys! This is perfect, did you bake it yourselves?" Both Zayn and Liam nodded.

Niall piped in, "They made it this morning. I swear I could it right away." Zayn laughed, "Niall, do you really want us to lock you in a room till Harry cuts the cake?" Niall laughed and shook his head.

Harry said, "Alright, I'll go freshen up but where is Lou?"

"That idiot threw up this morning, worried he would ruin this day for you. I've sent him out for a walk, for some fresh air." Liam said, shaking his head.

"Oh lord. And, how are you all up this early? It's six in the morning." Harry asked. Zayn said, "Well, we all woke up at five and got ready for today. Me and Liam baked the cake. It was all Louis' idea though, all the waking up, coming here and everything."

Harry beamed; his boyfriend was lovely. He nodded, thanked them, and went to freshen up.

Harry was greeted by a hug when he exited the washroom. Harry relaxed in the hug, inhaling Louis' familiar scent. "Happy birthday baby, sorry I wasn't there when you woke up."

"Thank you, Lou and don't worry. You won't mess anything up. You're here and that's all that matters." Harry said, and broke the hug as Louis dragged him to the common room.

Harry looked around in awe. Why hadn't he gone to the common room earlier?

There were balloons and streamers everywhere, and in the middle stood three boys smiling at him. Louis soon joined them, still holding hands with Harry, and said, "Go on Harry, cut it."

Niall wanted to say something, but was unable to, so he nudged Harry in the ribs. Harry looked at him and said, "Hmm?"

"'M orreh fur eatin a bith oof yer cake's cream Harreh." Niall said, his mouth full of cream. Harry looked at him, amused, and said, "Oh Niall, don't worry about it."
