Being Sunday, and six in the morning, I had no intention of waking up before it was necessary. Had Niall's alarm not gone off, I would have still been asleep and dreaming.
"Turn it off," I grumble, pulling a pillow over my face. He giggled and tugged me up, pulling me to sit up and kissing my cheek.
"Sorry, Zee. Wanna take a shower together?" my eyes peeled themselves open to look at his face, and in that exact moment, I decided that I could and would never deny a shower with Niall. The others were all still asleep, snoring and drooling, and the both of us sneaked out of bed near silently.
The water was warmer than I would usually have it if I was the one setting it, but it was perfect for Niall. Even if it was making me sweat more than it was helping me get clean.
"I love you," Niall whispered, still running his shampoo covered hands through my hair. My eyes were closed as he washed my hair, and I relished in the feeling of his fingers against my scalp.
"I love you too, my love," I whisper after a while "Who are you babysitting today? The Stump kids?"
"Yeah, their parents work a lot. They're amazing kids, though." he smiles as he talks, and takes a moment to look at moment to just stare.
"Give me a kiss."
After Niall had left for work, I had spent the majority of the day in bed. I hadn't wanted to get up, nor did I have any reason to get up. Now, though, Liam was starting to get concerned.
"Zee, why don't you come downstairs and chill out with us?" he whispered, trying to get the blanket off of me so that I'd have to get up. I shook my head and took the blanket back, curling up.
"I'm tired."
"Please? We can even cuddle downstairs, you don't even have to do anything. We're just talking and hanging out down there."
"Li, 'm tired. Been trying to just sleep." he sighs and pulls my head back a little, so that he could see my face. I could see the frown on his face when I didn't moan, like I normally would have- even when I was tired.
"You've been up here all day, and I wanna spend time with you, but we have guests and I can't stay up here with you. Please, Zee." I shake my head and pull away so that I could hide under the blankets. The idea of getting up was draining on it's on, I couldn't actually do it. "Okay, babe. I understand. I'll be upstairs again soon."
