Liam's POV:

"Zachary!" Gracie yelled running to him.

"Gracieeeeee" Zak screeched back, engulfing Gracie in a tight hug and picking her up spinning her around.

As he put Gracie down, he took a step back. Glancing over Gracie's shoulder he turned a soft red coloured noticing the others lads sitting and watching his very girly antics. Zak stood back to his full height and cleared his throat

"Lads!" He tried bringing back his more boyish ways.

I knew the others weren't going to let him off that light.

"ZACHARY!" They cheered in unison with jazz hands.

Gracie was on the floor laughing hard.

And to my surprise so was Zak, after the laughing died down Zak spoke again

"So are you going to show me this princess room you haven't shut up about or not?"

At that Gracie had jumped up from the floor, grabbed Zak's hand and dragged him up the stairs to her room.

"Well I take the opportunity to leave now!" Amelia said smiling.

"Oh yes, wish your mom a speedy recovery." Liam smiled.

"I will, see you all tomorrow." She called as she left the lounge.

"Well he seems nice!" Harry stated.

"He can take a joke!" Louis added.

"I don't know about him, I don't think you should leave them up there too long." Zayn said sounding like a over protected father.

"No, actually I think I shall go and get them." Zayn added standing to his feet.

"Zayn mate, chill out, he's a good lad. I will give them 5 minutes then I will call them down." I reassured him.

"If your sure, I just... Oh I don't know!" Zayn stuttered on his words.

Laughing I went to the kitchen to grab a drink for the kids, but as I walked past the stairs I could hear fits of laughter, it was nice hearing Gracie laugh so loudly, I had to stop and listen longer.

"Where you going Gracie? I thought we were going to play football?" I heard Zak call after Gracie who passed across the landing.

"Yes, we are, I just need something!" She shouted back to Zak who was now sitting on the top step with a raised eyebrow at me.

"I was just listening to Gracie laugh, I've never heard her laugh like that." I said walking away and to the kitchen.

Louis POV:

"Guys you want to play football with us?" Gracie asked bursting in through the door wearing Niall's favourite jersey.

"Your working the jersey princess." Niall smiled.

"I know right! Come on lets play." She cheered skipping to the patio doors.

"Harry, Zayn come on, don't think your getting out of this one." She shouted looking back to them still sitting on the sofa's.
