"Sweetheart, let me tell you something no one ever believes, but I swear to you is the absolute truth. You fall in love more than once. It'll happen again. And it will be just as amazing and extraordinary as the first time."

The trio walked down the driveway up to the house, the sun was up, and its intensity dueled by a soft breeze that ruffled the leaves of the trees and bushes, playing softly with Cheryl's hair as she walked ahead of the group and up the stairs to the door of the cream colored house.
She reached out to the doorbell as Louis and Jackson climbed the stairs behind her, Louis ruffled his hair with his left hand as Jackson stopped next to Cheryl and shifted his weight from one leg to the other; he looked over his shoulder, the day was nice and warm and he wondered how long they would get to keep that weather before the rain came back.
"Let's hope not too soon" he sighed in his mind just as the door of the house swung open and Zayn appeared at the other side.
"Hey" he greeted, his voice a bit hoarse "I thought you guys weren't coming"
"You thought wrong" Cheryl shrugged and stepped into the house as Zayn moved away from the door to allow them inside.
"Hey man" said Jackson walking in behind his twin sister, Louis walked in last, heavy dark bags under his eyes.
"You look like shit" said Zayn as he closed the door behind Louis.
"Thanks man, you always know what to say to make me feel special" Louis groaned.
"It's a gift "shrugged Zayn with a smirk over his face.
The group walked towards the living room, Harry and Liam were already there, Harry had laid down over the sofa and had his legs resting over Liam's lap, his phone in his hands; he glanced up when the group walked in and a smile spread over his lips when he saw them.
"Hi!" he cheered, Cheryl winked at him.
"Hey" said Jackson, Louis just nodded and walked towards one of the arm chairs, his head was still throbbing from the party but they had a ritual and he wasn't about to miss it just because he was hungover; especially because he knew they would be getting decent homemade food at Zayn's house.
Cheryl made a beeline towards the sofa, Harry pushed himself up on his elbows and allowed her to sit down before he dropped back down and set his head over her lap, her long fingers instantly finding his hair and mindlessly she started playing with his smooth locks as Zayn and Jackson sat down around the living room, Zayn sitting over the last arm chair as Jackson sat down on the floor, near his sister's legs.
"What time did the party end?" asked Harry, he looked up from his phone to Cheryl.
"I think it was around three?" she shrugged, and turned to Louis.
"Yeah, something like that"
"How do you even know?" asked Liam, he frowned "I had to carry you up to your room, that's how drunk you were"
"You say it like that it gives people the wrong idea" sighed Louis "Makes people think I can't control my drinks"
"You can't" said Jackson and Cheryl at the same time.
