I'm currently sitting here doing nothing. Yay. I'm writing simply out of boredom.

"Monopoly? That's such a lame little kid game!"

Lily shakes her head at Zayn's words.

"Now you've done it"

"Monopoly is a game. It is literally life. We will play monopoly."

All of the boys avoided my eye contact and nodded. Lily rolls her eyes.

"Fantastic!"

I clap my hands and smile.

"Anyone want to get the game?"

Three of the boys jumped up and sprinted. I may have scared them a little. Oops. I realize niall and Liam are the only two left but since lily and niall seem to be having a very animated conversation I turn to Liam.

"Monopoly, huh?"

I blush I little. What is this. I don't blush.

"What can I say? It's my game"

He chuckles and I feel all tingley. Oh god. What is happening to me??

"That's okay. I love Disney movies and the boys always tease me for it"

"Why would they tease you? Disney is better than any other form of entertainment!"

I can see I glint in Liam's eyes and his smile gets bigger.

"You understand me!"

I laugh and see he's just smiling watching me. Uhm. Okay? The boys all walk back in. Someone throws the box in my general direction and I have the game set up in a matter of five seconds.

"I don't care what you are but I am the thimble."

"But-"

"I am the god damn thimble"

The boys all mumble in response.

-two hours later-

"Bloody hell. Can we be done with this game?"

I barely glance at Niall however I look long enough to see he and lily are touching knees now. Zayn roll the spinner getting a three. He lands on my property.

"Haha! Two hotels! Pay up sucker!"

He groans and throws all of his money at me.

"I'm done with this game."

"Can we just call a quits?"

"Please?"

I look at Louis and Harry and suppress an aw. Louis is laying in Harry's lap and Harry's subconsciously playing with his hair. Oh my Larry shipper heart. Right. Monopoly. The boys all throw in their cards except Niall.

"I never give up."

He rolls the dice and lands on my property. Smirking I hold out my hand, motioning towards his money.

"God damn it! That put me $100 in debt!"

I pick up all my money and throw it in the air, cheering.

"Suck my dick bitches! I win!"

I jump up and run a few victory laps around the room. I sit back down, panting.

"Jeez. Do you guys have anything to drink?"

They're all giving me blank stares.

"Okay? I'll just go find one then?"

I get up an walk around looking for the kitchen.

"Bingo!"

I open the fridge and pull out one of the at least 30 powerades. I doubt they'll miss one of these. I walk back towards the living room but stop a the doorway when I hear them talking.

"Is she always like that?"

Lily nods in response to Harry. Louis speaks next.

"I like her."

The boys all mumble agreements and I can't keep the smile off my face. I walk back in and dive onto the floor. Well. That was my plan. Instead I land on top of Liam. I look up and give him a sheepish smile.

"Hey there"

He chuckles and looks at me.

"Hello dear"

I smile and sit back up chugging my powerade. I take the empty bottle and throw it towards the trash can. It bounces off the wall and lands in the bin.

"Crushed it."

I sit up and am suddenly really dizzy. My head begins to really hurt and I feel like I might throw up. Liam touches my arm.

"Hey are you okay?"

Everyone's staring at me now. I give them a slight smile and wave it off.

"Just a headache I'll be fine."

Everyone goes back to their original conversations except Liam who is still worriedly watching me. I smile at him and pull out my phone to check the time.

"Crap! Lily!"

She looks at me.

"It's 6 o'clock!"

"So why does that- Oh my god!"

Both of us jump up and gather our stuff.

"Can one of you drive us home? Please?"

Niall jumps up and grabs his keys.

"Sure. See you later mates!"

Lily and I run out the door. Dang it. We're going to be so late.
