Riley's POV:

"Hey, Ri, I'm running out to the grocers before we get more snow!" Harry called. "The lads are coming with me. You sure you'll be okay alone?" 

I stuck my head out of the guest bedroom I was staying in. "Can one of them stay here with me? I'd feel more protected." I said sheepishly. 

"I'll stay," Niall offered. 

"No, boys. I'll stay, you know I hate the snow." Liam offered.

"I'm fine with either one of you,"

"I'll stay," Liam said and Niall's shoulder's slumped.

"Bye guys!" Louis, Zayn, Niall and Harry all waved before leaving and Harry blew me a kiss. 

My cheeks flushed. I loved all this lovie-dovieness. I walked downstairs to see Liam sitting alone on the couch, eating a bag of Lay's chips.

"Hey, Li, can I watch with you?" I asked, grabbing a bag of chips for me out of the cupboard.

"Sure, what do wanna watch?"

"Breaking Bad, please."

The boys returned sooner than I had thought. Harry was bundled up in a coat, a scarf, gloves and a hat, yet he still have snowflakes on the edges of his curls. 

I walked over and un-bundled him, kissing him on the tip of his red nose. I took of his hat and he shook his head like a dog, spraying snow everywhere.

"Harry!" I shrieked. He looked at me innocently with big green eyes. 

"C'mon guys, I'll make you some dinner. The snow's really coming down out there. Anyone in the mood for grilled cheeses and tomato soup?"

The boys all cheered except for Niall. 

The one thing I knew about Niall was that he would never turn down any sort of free food. The boys piled into the kitchen, talking loudly.

I pulled Niall off to the side. "Are you alright?" I whispered.

He jerked his arm out of my hand and stalked off. 

I frowned. He wasn't the usually happy leprechaun that made me laugh. I was upset. What was wrong with him?

I followed him into the kitchen, and helped Harry unpack the bags. I set down four cans of tomato soup and a loaf of bread.

Harry shoved me over jokingly to get the cheese. 

"Uh-uh." I shot back.

He shoved me into the counter and I laughed loudly. All of the boys had been sitting down on the couch, watching the television, but now were staring at us.

Niall suddenly stomped out of the kitchen, and left the house. I ran to the door.

"Niall, you can't go out in this type of weather!" I called as he got into the car.

He drove away angrily. I closed the door and walked back into the kitchen.

"What do you think is wrong with him today?" I asked and curled up on the couch into a little ball. I was really upset. Niall was the happy one of the group - and I had this feeling I had made him unhappy.

"Ri, I can see it in your eyes, you want to blame yourself. Don't - he's probably just had a bad day, okay?" I felt the couch dip and I saw Harry sit down next to me.

Harry hugged me and I slightly smiled. He always made me feel better.

"How 'bout we just get McDonalds?" Louis suggested and Liam got up. 

"I'll drive there. What does everybody want?"
