NORMAL P.O.V

       I twisted and turned trying to settle in a comfortable position.

Arrghhhh! It's useless, I'm wide awake.

       I looked at the clock that glowed 1.38 am. Sighing I pushed myself out of bed. My eyes caught the dim light coming from the bedside table next to Zayn's bed. Zayn's head lay on the book as he slept. I stood staring at his innocent face like a total creep. Well would you blame me? he looked so cute! his lips were slightly parted as he breathed, his dark hair rustling in the breeze coming from the balcony behind me. Snapping myself from the daze I walked towards him resting my palms on his shoulders.

"Zayn.." I whispered shaking him lightly.

"Zayn.."

"mmffttt Belle.." He murmered in his sleep and turned his head to the other side. A small smile crept on my lips. Ohh I could just sit and watch him the whole night but probably he would have a stiff neck in the morning if I don't wake him.

Not to mention that would be creepy..

"Zayn..." I tried a little louder. He rustled again turning his head and his eyelids fluttered. This is where he wakes up whispering my name softly. I tell him to sleep on the bed as I help him up and tuck him under the covers. he mumbles a soft goodnight and not being able to resist myself I kiss his forehead and a sweet smile curves his lips.

So cute right? But this is not what happened. Actually we ended up with 4 bowls of icecream, a broken door, a burnt pillow and a smudged, wet carpet.

"Cathy?" He mumbled sleepily and suddenly his eyes grew wide. I felt his shoulders getting tense below my touch and before I could figure out what was happening, Zayn jumped up from his chair yelling something about being late and my foot caught up with the other one. I landed on the floor with the chair now on top of me.

Advice no 1: never wake up fire elementals in the middle of night...they are quite jumpy.

      he was still befuddled and a grunt left his lips. "Thief!!" he yelled and flames engulfed his bare upper torso.

advice no 2: Open your freaking mouth and let them know that it's you.

         I scrambled back on my elbows, throwing the chair aside in the process, screaming loudly. In the moment of panic someone had burst the door open and Zayn had managed to set fire to the pillow on his bed. The lights flicked on and I was still on the ground. Harry stood holding the door and Ally stood beside him, her eyes wide. (correction! Harry had broken the door not opened it.) Zayn was pretty confused and was staring at me.

advice no 3: Get off the damn floor instead of staring at people.

"Fire!!!!" Ally yelled and I managed to whip my head at the burning pillow. Zayn cursed as he threw it down right next to me. Wow! talk about being panicky. I shrieked but was soon drenched in water. The air smelt of smoke and Zayn stood in front of me sizzling. My mouth was wide open as I stared at the water evaporating from his shoulders.

"What the hell are you two upto? I almost had a heart attack!" Harry said keeping the broken door aside not even bothering to say sorry about it. I was still on the floor drenched and with a slight back ache. Zayn flopped down on the bed, his head in his hands taking shaky breaths. Ally rushed to my side lifting me from the ground and making me sit on the bed.

"Cathy? Hello?! Are you okay?" she asked snapping her fingers in front of my face. I nodded not being able to speak a word.

"What happened?" Harry asked lifting the fallen chair and placing it in front of Zayn who still had his head in his hands. Harry sat on it, his hand placed on Zayn's shoulder.
