I opened my eyes to the bright morning light. What the hell?
"Close the drapes you arse!"
"Not until you wake up. It's three in the after noon!" Harry said, crossing his arms.
"Fine. Whatever control freak."
"I am not going to get mad, because you can be a little shit, so please let it be."
I was fuming. First, he plans to wake me up with brigh light that could blind someone, and picks a fight? I'm not letting him off easy.
"A little shit? Excuse you mister 'I have to control everything and make it my way or else I have a tantrum'." I spoke loudly mimicking his voice.
"A Tantrum is what you're doing right now. Also, I don't sound like that."
"Whatever. I gotta be to work in an hour so leave me alone. "
"Alright princess."
With that nickname I almost socked him In the face, but being the respectful gentlemen I was I kneed him in the balls. Yes it was overboard but whatever?
"I told you about that nickname, haz!"
"You're gonna fuckin get it you Little shit!" Harry squeaked as he doubled over.
"Okayyy. Whatever you say." And with a pat on his curly hair, I was out the door.

"Someone is grumpy? " Niall spoke aloud.
"Well my morning wasn't so great. Leave me alone ."
"Okay princess."
I had to huff and leave it alone because although kneeing your best friend was appropriate,  the place wasnt.

"Hey, lou! I'm taller than you now!"
"What?? No, psh. You're wearing eileens heels again! She told you one day you'd hurt your ankle." But as I looked down at Nialls feet he was only wearing these crusty sandals that probably cost a few cents.
"You shrunk!"
I snorted.
"Obviously not. You're seeing things ni. Get your eyes checked."
Although it was pretty clear myself I wasn't 5'9 but probably 5'7, or 6.
What even happened?
----
"How was work?"
"Okay."
"Anything nice happen? "
"Nope."
"Did you.. um meet anyone new?"
"No, harold. I didnt. The only highlight of my day was watching you get kicked in the balls. This has been a horrible week."
"Cheer up, babe. How about we watch the notebook and have icecream? We can be casual white girls."
"The what? "
"The what what..?" Harry said repeating me all while sounding confused.
"What's the notebook?"
"Stop messing with me. Anyways I know we have your favourite ice cream at the moment. Let's get settled? "
"Uh... yeah." I spoke taking off my shoes slowly.
What??
