LOUIS' P.O.V

We have all just got back from the swimming centre and everyone has rushed off leaving me, Zayn and Harry to carry all of the bags into the house. Juggling bags is easier said than done, every step I take I end up dropping t least one bag. By the time we get inside there is no one in sight, they have all ran off to shower and bathe. Great, I have to wait. The twins are the only people who didn't manage to get to the showers in time so they have to wait with me, Harry and Zayn.

"I'm so bored Lou", Daisy utters.

"What do you want to do?", I ask, knowing she has something in mind but she needs other people to be involved.

"Erm- I don't know...like lets play a game?", She replies just as Lottie walks into the room with her dressing gown on and a towel wrapped around her as if it was a turban.

"Why don't you go shower, then by the time you have done most people will have finished then we can all play a game together like i promised earlier", I state because I could never break my promises.

"Okay, but you all have to be super quick in the shower", she replies as she runs off to the downstairs shower.

It only took around two hours for us all to shower so now we are all waiting for my mother to put the younger twins to sleep for their evening nap so we can all play a game of hide and seek which I promised Daisy and Phoebe we would play once we are home.

"mum, will you count first?", Phoebe asks politely as she flutters her eyelashes.

"Sure,go hide...you all", she replies.

We all run off in separate directions leaving my mum in the living room to count. I saw Lottie go in my room and Fizzy went into the main bath room. Daisy hid with me under the stairs behind the box of photo's from our childhood. Phoebe ran off to the lounge and I didn't see where the boys went, I assumed they went upstairs because they left after me and I heard footsteps above me.

"Coming!", My mum shouts as she walks out of the living room.

She didn't check under the stairs so me and Daisy are the last people to be found. We can hear everyone else giving them subtle hints outside the door.

"This is my favourite photo we have", I hear Lottie say and everyone else laughed.

They waited a few minutes before one of them told her where we are hiding. Harry was the first one found, apparently he hid under a bed.

"Nice one Harold. Nobody checks under the beds...You're subtle-I like it", I say and everyone in the room laughs including my mum who just couldn't regain control over her voice box.

"Yeah, well I like to be subtle", Harry states sarcastically but something is telling me he wasn't being sarcastic, it sounded honest.

We play hide and seek until 8PM then the twins have to sleep. Mum went to bed too and told me to make sure the other girls are in bed before 11PM. We told her we would. We decided that playing dares would be a good idea, we all agreed to it.

"Write a dare for each person and a truth question for each person in the room then when we have to ask them we know what we want to ask", Liam suggested so we did it.

"Keep it clean", I added sternly, not wanting my sister who are younger than me to be exposed to unclean doings or answers.

Lottie chose to go first. The game was going great until it was my turn and Zayn asked me the question.

"Truth or Dare?", he questions and my heart drops...the only thing going through my mind was all the questions he could ask me which are personal and all the dares which he could ask me that could include Harry.
