Meh, I admit, this chapter is pretty fluffy. It was raining, I was bored, and I couldn't be bothered to write anything dramatic. Oh well, it is quite cute. This is preparation for the gig.

Later that night, Louis' mum came home after visiting her own mother. "Hey guys." She peered into the living room, where the boys were all spread out around the fire. She pulled out her phone and took a picture. "What are you doing?" Then she checked the time. "Boys, would you look at the time, it's midnight- oh..."

After walking round, she noticed they all had their eyes closed, but yet they had pens and paper. She figured they must have fallen asleep whilst writing. Then she noticed something odd.

Louis' head was on Harry's shoulder, and they had their arms round each other's waists, and the same for Niall and Zayn. Liam was in the armchair.

Zayn woke up. He was used to waking up first; he always had to wake up Niall, because he always slept in. Not that he didn't enjoy sleeping with Niall.

Despite the fact they shared the same bed, they were still actually virgins.

But this was because he knew Niall wasn't ready; he didn't dare ask Niall, because knowing him, he'd take it personally or get the wrong end of the stick. Niall was the most sensitive person Zayn knew.

Zayn had met Niall in Infant School. Unlike most people (like Louis), they had a separate school for years 0-2, and for 3-6. So they met when they were both around 5, and remained best friends with Harry.

Until ten years later, when Harry found new friends. Harry had Dudley and the gang. Though Zayn and Niall always warned Harry about them, Harry didn't listen, and so when Harry got stabbed he got back in touch with them.

BUT, for the seven years when Harry WAS with the gang, it was just Niall and Zayn; they never socialised with other people before, so why did they have to then? This pushed them even closer. So when they were bot 18, Zayn finally asked him out on a date and they kissed. Best day of Zayn's life.

Even after a year, though, they hadn't told anyone. Except for Louis and Harry, of course, because they seemed open about it. Especially when they were round Zayn and Niall's flat on Monday, watching a film. Harry started to kiss Louis, and they thought no one else would notice in the dark, but they all knew. Harry's moans were deep, and hard to not hear.

So Zayn and Niall told them.

"Shit!" Zayn realised that they were all still at Louis', and there were blankets all around them. Either one of the boys got blankets for them all in the middle of the night, or-

Louis' mum. Louis' mum must have seen them all huddled together. Him and Niall! He nudged Niall awake.

"Urgh, mph..." Niall sat up, looking in to Zayn's eyes. They were both shirtless, probably because they took them off in the middle of the night, after getting too hot. Niall smiled; he always thought Zayn looked hot shirtless.

"Niall, look where we are!"

"And?"

"Louis' mum must have seen us!" He relented.

"...and? Louis or Harry have probably told her anyway."

They heard the front door close. No one came in, so they reckoned Louis' mum had left to do something.

"We're under the same blanket." Niall remarked, snuggling up closer to Zayn.

"G-good point." Zayn collapsed back down with Niall, and they started to kiss, hands running up and down each other's sides.

Louis woke up and went through the same thing as Zayn did, but realised his mum must be at work by now. Then he heard noises, and looked down at the floor to see Niall and Zayn making out. It was hot, he had to admit. Especially Zayn, who he could see more of. He felt something stir in his underwear, but then he heard Harry whisper in his ear.

"Enjoying yourself?"

"Huh? Wh... Harry you're awake. Did you have a good sleep?" Louis whispered.

"How long have you been awake, staring at them?"

"A few seconds."

"Oh okay. Nice site, isn't it?" Harry stared down at his friends.

"Harry, did you get these blankets out?"

"Nope, you?"

"Well, I wouldn't ask you if I had, would I?" Louis looked at Harry in an expression that said: 'you're a dumbass'

"Good point." Harry surged towards Louis. "Let's give 'em competition."

Liam woke up and looked around the room.

"Urgh, cut it out, the pairs of you." He squinted his eyes. "Not really what I wanted to wake up to."

Zayn got off of Niall and looked around, and Louis and Harry were still kissing. "S... wh... how... Liam I swear I didn't know they were at it. Get off him, Haz!"

Finally Harry and Louis let go. Everyone looked a state. Louis pointed and laughed at Zayn and Niall's hair, and everyone laughed the same at Louis'.

Harry's looked the same. "Lucky." Niall remarked.

"I suppose I am. I wash my hair, brush it then but then I don't brush it until I next wash it."

"I've just realised." Louis stood up, dressed in only his chinos and underwear.

"What?" Everyone else said in unison.

"We're doing a gig at the Woolly tonight. Oh my god, I remember what happened last night! We were trying to work out what songs to cover!"

"Oh shit we must have dozed off!"

"Ahhh!"

"Oh, crap I can't, I can't do this-" Zayn ran out the room and upstairs.

"Well, that was a bit over the top, I must say." Louis found his top under Harry's and put it on, so everyone else did too. "Oh, no, according to my NotePad, we're doing Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now, then our song, then... oh my god, who the hell decided on this?!"

Now Harry was hanging on Louis shoulder, standing next to him. Niall, Liam and a newly emerged Zayn had read the NotePad.

"Believe by Cher?" They all said in unison.

"Meh, I quite like it." Liam said, and everyone turned to him.

"Well, what are we waiting for, let's practice!" Harry cheered. Niall grabbed his guitar from the case and they all started the Starship classic.

"Lookin' in your eyes, I see a paradise," Harry started, singing to Louis. "This world that I've found, is too good to be true."

Louis took over: "Let 'em see we're crazy, don't care about that, put your hand in my hand (Louis grabbed Harry's hand) baby, don't ever look back. Let the world around us, just fall apart, baby we can make it if we're heart to heart!"

Liam joined Harry and Louis on the chorus, and Niall and Zayn took over for the next verses, Liam joining in again on the chorus.

"Perfect." Louis smiled when they finished. "Right, now all we have to sort out is the dress code. I thought we could all wear different coloured chinos, like JLS did..."

"I like that idea." Zayn and Niall said at the same time.

"I don't." As did Liam and Harry.

"Please, guys, we'd look cute." Louis begged.

"But do we really want to look cute? People wouldn't know whether we're out for guys or girls..." They all chuckled at Liam's accidental joke. "Oh fine, but I'm wearing brown, not yellow-"

"I'M YELLOW!" Louis shouted over-excitedly, and turned to Harry, who had his thumb and forefinger squeezing the part of his nose between the eyes. Nevertheless, he was smiling. "Woo, Harry's in!"
