When I woke up the house was quiet and it was dark. I checked my phone, 4.30AM. I groaned and laid back down. I closed my eyes but I couldn't fall asleep. I rolled over and stared out my window. There was a rustle and a black figure ran past. Too big to be an animal, big enough to be a person. I sat up bolt right and some leaves rustles and sticks cracked. I slowly got up and backed away from my bed and from the room. I held in a squeal as a shadow passed from the hall window. I walked quickly to Lou's room and everything was quiet again. I crept in

"Emiboo?"

"Y-yeah?"

He sat up and opened his covers which I ran under. He stroked my hair gently

"You ok boo?"

"I am now" I whispered.

He held me tightly in his arms and I closed my eyes. But instead of black all I could see was the black shadow running across the yard.



I was still in Lou's arms when I woke up, in the morning this time. Lou moved and squinted his eyes open

"Hey" he whispered

"Hey louboo" I whispered back and he closed his eyes.

I brushed some hair out of his face and he opened his eyes again

"You ok now? You looked petrified last night"

"Yeah I'm ok, just a bad night"

He nodded and pulled the covers down and got us up. He picked me up into his arms and carried me downstairs

"I can walk!"

"I like carrying you"

"I'm heavy" I whined

"You weigh nothing, honestly it feels like I'm carrying nothing"

I rolled my eyes. Sure.

He put my down on a chair and Harry and Niall were arguing over food

"I just went shopping!"

"And I was just hungry!"

"You ate all the food!"

"There's still some there!"

"What a biscuit you missed?"

"No! There's chips and green vegetables!"

Me and Lou were laughing and Niall came up to me

"Goldy! Help! Hazza is gonna kill me!"

"Aw little leprechaun I'll keep you safe!"

A smile played on Harry's lips as I held Niall in my small arms

"Good luck love, you weigh less than a feather" said zayn from behind us

"ZAYNIE!"

I ran into his arms

"I missed you"

"You too" he said and kissed my forehead.

Liam came out and gave me a hug and Niall had already eaten while we were having little catch up. He laughed and ran away from Harry who chased him to his room. Seconds later we heard a door slam and Nialls laugh. Harry came back down

"I'll get him later"

"Good luck curly"

He winked at me and I went up to my room to get dressed. I had a long hot shower for probably 15 minutes. i wrapped myself in my towel and got out clothes. I wore pink track suit pants (A/N do you know the ones from cotton on? That are tight at the bottom) and a black tank top and dried my hair on the towel and let it fall back still damp.

I was playing on my phone and someone came up behind me and grabbed me, falling on top of me on to my bed. I screamed and laughed. I looked up to see el looking bright and happy as ever

"HEY BABE!"

"HEY!" I yelled back hugging her tightly

She sat us on the bed and started doing my hair as we talking

"Lou said something happened last night?"

"Yeah"

"What's up honey?"

"Nothing" I mumbled

"Just between us, promise"

I sighed

"There's a lot I want to tell you actually I just don't know if I should"

"I'm here for you hon, I'm here whenever, you know that."

"well.."



I love being lazy :). and it's cold so I just sit on my bed all day.
