as soon as niall started to do my hair, paul came in with the food, so niall promised me that he would do it after we ate.

i grabbed some plates from the cupboard and put them on the table.

"i just got honey soy chicken stuff and rice from the place down the road. i don't know if it's any good" paul said

i helped him get all the food on the plates and i piled rice on the plates

"well i hope you all like rice" i said, handing a plate to both niall and liam.

we ate the chicken, which turned out to be quite good. harry helped paul and i clean up, and paul said he would take the rubbish down to the ground floor.

"nialll!" i called, and to my surprise he came running with the comb.

i sat on the floor and niall brushed my long (still pink) hair. my hair is not as dark as it was when it was first dyed, more of a light pink now, but i like it that same.

"just tell me if it hurts, yeah?" niall said and i nodded.

"hey, where's harry?" i asked, looking around and noticing he wasn't laying all over couches, like the other boys.

"went to bed earlier. said he was tired, as usual" niall laughed.

"what time is it?" i asked, as niall started combing the other side of my head.

"11.30" niall replied casually. "you tired?"

"a little" i answered, leaning back more.

he grabbed all my hair up and put it into a bun, which wasn't really that bad considering he doesn't have any girls' hair to do.

"i guess that's my cue to go to bed" i sighed, standing up.

"me too" lou and zayn said at the same time, then pointed at each other, laughing.

"night!" i said to niall and liam, hugging them both.

i hugged lou, and zayn followed me to our room. luckily, i had change earlier, so i just followed zayn into the bathroom and brushed my teeth.

"how are you feeling?" zayn asked, toothpaste covering the outside of his mouth.

"I'm gonna puke on you any second now" i joked, ad zayn backed away.

"I'm kidding, I'm kidding. nah, im feeling ok"

"good. el will be here soon with your medicine" he smiled, foamy toothpaste dripping further down his chin.

i rinsed my mouth and toothbrush before turning to face zayn. i used the hand towel i was holding, to wipe the toothpaste that was all around zayns mouth.

"come on" i pulled on his hand after he rinsed his mouth.

this time, he followed me, and got into the bed next to mine.

"night" he said, but i went over and sat on the edge of his bed.

"wait"

"what is it?" he asked, looking at me his eyes half closed.

"i want to tell lou" i said, not sure of it until i said it just now.

"what? w-why? i mean, what makes you want to?"

"we were talking, and i said if i hypothetically had a secret, whatever, and we just talked and he just seemed to understand even though he didn't know what it was."

"em, you know that you can tell whoever you want. i'll help you, for when you need, and are ready"

"i want to tell him. i just-i don't know. i feel like he needs to know. they all do, but you know"
