Foot prints

Chapter 15

Recap

I glanced at my watch briefly... "9:00am!" I huffed "Still a long way to go!" I sighed! Knowing that no one would be up for another 2 hours at least. With one last sigh, I closed my eyes, and let my head fall back onto the headrest of the chair.

Niall's pov

I hate waking up! But that soon cut out my mind as I thought... FOOD! I got up and walked out my door in sweats, briefly noticing Liam and someone else up as I looked in the fridge for something to eat. "Ohhh yummy!" I squealed quietly as I reached in the fridge and pulled out a container labelled 'For Niall... chocolate cake' I started a mini victory dance in my head as I grabbed a fork and walked into the living room to find Liam and... wait what... "Jenna?!" I whispered, although nobody could respond since they were both asleep! "How lazy!" I muttered as took a seat on the opposite sofa, because I was being generous and not waking sleeping beauty up... and by that I mean Liam! I opened the plastic box, consuming MY chocolate cake! "Dinner is served!" I whispered to myself as I dug in. I heard a light giggle from somewhere as I said that, I instantly looked in front to Liam and Jenna. There was movement from Jenna, but everyone moves around when they sleep right?! She turned so that her back was now facing me, another light giggle escaped her lips, I placed my chocolate cake next to me on the sofa before standing up and making my way over to them. I leaned over, nearly into Liam, to get a good look at Jenna. I saw her slightly open one eye and I immediately jumped up "I knew it was you that was awake!" I half lied as I whispered "Yeah sure you did leprechaun" she yawned while climbing up off Liam's lap, who was still... by the way asleep, now in a sitting position, stretching. "Call me that again!" I whispered playfully as I narrowed my eyes.

Liam's pov

I briefly open my eyes, to find Niall and Jenna playing about like 5 year olds. I heard her call Niall a leprechaun, and I thought oh no she's gonna get it now! I looked over at the other sofa, still trying not to show that I'm awake, to find chocolate cake?!? Niall... I think to myself!

Jenna's pov

"Lep-re-chaun" I said a lot slower "That's it... your going to get it now!" He whispered as he got closer to me. I shot up of the sofa and squealed as he started to run towards me, I automatically went in the direction of the corridor, just to hear him stop, however I carried on and pelted through the hall passing dozens of, most likely, empty rooms on my way. "Oh... you can run but you can't hide!" he said. Oh ok then, two can play this game, "Try me..." I half yelled back, trying not to wake anyone up in the process. I sprint down the hallway into a room. I open the door gently, not wanting to make any noise, to find a massive wardrobe "Oh look... NARNIA!" I joke "Fee-fi-foe-fum" his voice getting reasonably louder as he got closer. My heart pumped faster as my first instinct was to climb into the wardrobe. I climbed in, and closed the wardrobe door just in time for him to open the bedroom one. "Where are you Jenna?" he said extra slow to try and make me giggle so he can find out where I am hiding. I stifle a laugh as I cover my mouth quickly. "Come out, come out where ever you are" he said, as I watched him, through the crack in the wardrobe, walk towards where I was hiding may I add!

*Knock. Knock. Knock.*

Niall knocked on the wardrobe door, as I was trying not to giggle. I saw his shadow, and heard his footsteps move away. I let out a long breath that I was holding in and let my head hang down towards my feet. The door then swung open, followed by a thunderous "BOO!" I replied with a scream. I jumped back and hit the backboard of the wardrobe, hearing a loud snap. I gasped as I looked at Niall. He stared right back at me with an shocked yet amused face, "You- you broke I-it!" he burst out laughing while I was still in shock horror "Niall! You made me brake the wardrobe, you idiot!" I scolded "LIAM'S GONNA KILL ME!" I glanced at him. He was clutching his stomach while he laughed hysterically! He looked at me and my facial expression... and started laughing louder and harder! "You think that this is funny!" I whispered harshly, remembering that everyone else was still asleep... woops. He answered back by nodding his head, still in a fit of laughter. He finally stopped laughing, recomposing himself as he stood up straight. I huffed as I crossed my arms over my chest, he then unexpectedly poked me in the rib, I jumped back and giggled slightly. "What?" he questioned "I'm ticklish!" I giggled, but my facial expression dropped as a massive grin found its way to his lips. What have I just done! He took steps closer to me, as I took ones back, but abruptly stopped once my back hit the wall. "You are now are you?" he asked, placing both of his hands either side of my head. "N-no I... I was joking" I giggled nervously "So if I did this-" he said as he tickled my rib and then placed it back on the wall "Wouldn't make you laugh?" he asked as I was trying not to laugh. "N-no it wouldn't" I lied, he eyed me carefully before picking me up and slinging me over his shoulder, I squealed as he threw me onto a sofa, that I didn't even realise was in here, and started to use both of his hands, tickling my ribs, under my arms and my neck. I burst out laughing almost instantly, but this time I couldn't stop myself "N-Niall s-stop-p plea-please!" I attempted to say in between my uncontrollable fit of laughter. He finally stopped, as I gasped for air that my lungs needed so badly. After about 2 minutes, my heavy breathing had died down to soft subtle ones instead. I got lost in my mind, as I though 'Paybacks gonna be sweet!'.
