Louis' POV~
I wake up to the sound of my phone ringing. I sit up groaning as I reach across my bed to my nightstand where my phone was.

"Hello?" I say, my voice deep from sleep.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!" Harry giggles on the other end.

I smile, "Thanks Hazza."

"You're welcome Lou!" He chirps. Someone's in a good mood this morning..

"So..do I even want to know why you sound so happy?" I ask teasingly.

"Stuff it..and for your information, I am happy because my mum is teaching Zayn how to make our famous Christmas desserts, & it's cute. But anyways, how's your Christmas break going? I feel like I haven't heard from anyone in soooo long. I miss you." He says, sighing at the end.

"Haha wow, Zayn cooking sweets, what has the world become?!" I joke, & he giggles before I continue, "But I'm good, Niall's good. He's actually coming over today I'll have him text ya or something. Uhm..have you guys heard from Josh at all?" I ask hesitantly.

"Uhm..no? Why?" He asks curiously.

"Oh, nothing. Just wondering." I lie.

"Oh, okay. Well have a fun birthday Lou, don't get into too much trouble." He teases.

"Oh I plan on getting into lots of trouble." I say smugly.

"Haha oh goodness..bye Lou."

"Bye Hazza." I smile through the phone even tho I know he can't see it.

I hang up just as the door opens, the twins run in giggling & mum walks in holding a tray of food.

"We tried to wake up your other two sisters but you know how they love their beauty rest." Mum says, & I chuckle, as the twins climb onto my bed.

"Happy birthday LouLou!" Daisy squeals, & Phoebe kisses my cheek, giggling.

I scoop them into my lap, "Morning Girls, did you help mummy make breakfast for me?"

"Mhm!" Daisy smiles, & Phoebe nods, smiling proudly.

"Okay girls, let your brother eat in peace." Mum says smiling.

They both slide off my lap, giggling, & skip out the door. "Happy Birthday Lou." She says, pulling me into a tight hug & kissing my forehead.

"Mum.." I groan, feeling my cheeks heat up.

"Okay, okay I get it, you're grown up, I'm embarrassing you." She laughs, before letting me go. "I'm just..so happy. When you got into that accident..I was so scared. But here you are, safe & sound." She smiles slightly, & I smile sympathetically.

"I know..I'm sorry about that..by the way.." I say sheepishly, running my fingers through my hair.

"I know you are, it's okay..just never again, okay?" She says sternly.

"It won't, I promise." I say sincerely, & she nods.

"Good." She said, & left.

"Honey! I'm home!" I hear an Irish voice call. I roll my eyes, pausing the video game I was previously playing.

"Up here mate!" I shout, only to hear a chorus of high pitched giggles, & the pitter-patter of feet racing up the stairs.

"Help! I'm being attacked by little monsters!" Niall shouts dramatically as he opens my door. Daisy & Phoebe were hanging onto his legs.

I chuckle, getting off my bed. "I guess it's time for our secret weapon..TICKLE MONSTER!" I shout, reaching down to tickle Daisy as Niall crouches slightly to tickle Phoebe.
