The illumination of the moon began to dimly light up the noisy house that was the Tomlinson's as Louis complained repeatedly on his Mother's living room couch.
"It's so hot in here!" - "Mom, please, get me another rag!" -"Lottie, can you put my phone on charge?" -"Fizzy, can you get me another Gatorade?"
After listening to Louis for nearly an hour, the sisters took refuge when they finally heard soft snores coming from their brother's mouth.
"Though he's annoying, I gotta say he's looking healthy!" Daisy bragged.
"Except that nasty virus. Hope it isn't contagious Phoebe snickered.
"Yes, I agree. He's doing so great," Mrs. Tomlinson said putting a thin blanket over Louis. "We've been blessed this semester so far."

(iMessage) to LouBear (10:30 p.m)
HazBear💙: Hey babe. Hope you're feeling better. Going to the party.
HazBear💙: Sleep well for me, k? Love you.Streamers, Chritmas lights, and the smell of cheap cigarettes, alcohol, and marijuana filled the room. Weaving through sweaty bodies, Harry made his way to the improvised bar on a mission to momentarily forget the drama in his life.
"Har, I'm glad to see you could make it!" Ed patted him on the back before pouring tequila into a red solo cup. "Where's Little Lou?" He asked putting a lime wedge on the side of the cup.
"He's got a stomach bug..." Harry frowned. "It's just Niall and I tonight. Liam is somewhere. Haven't been to a party in so long!" Harry chugged the alcohol without a second thought and pointed to his empty cup hinting at a refill.
"Better slow down. The night has just begun," Ed laughed but poured the cup full anyway.
"Oh, he'll be fine, Ginger!" Niall interjected as he scanned the room, "I'll be back. Going to find out her name!" He mischeviously looked Harry's direction but not breaking eye contact with a woman in the corner.
Harry shook his head in amusement as he pushed his way to the upstairs guest room hoping he could see a minutes peace and be alone with his thoughts and drink. He wasn't in the mood to socialize with anyone except Liam and Niall, who seem to be doing their own thing.
