With my eyes still closed, I can feel the morning air, breath against my face. I have no other choice but to get up from the bed. I sit up on my elbows and rub my eyes. I look out the window near me and see the sun is not out. There is nothing but grayness. I guess the sky won't be clearing up for a while due to the thunderstorm last night. I sigh.

 I pull the covers off from my tired body and I decide to get ready for the day. I go in the bathroom in my room, take a shower, dry and moisturize, and throw on some clothes. I wear a white shirt with short-sleeves, brown cargo jeans, and white sneakers. I allow my hair to stay up as usual and it is just fine. I sit on my bed and reach for a magazine in the holder. I find Alix's picture in the front and it say in the headline of PEOPLE's:

ALIX LAPRI SENSATION! Learn her story, her songs, filmography, style, and secret. Over 160 pics.

I shake my head as I remember when PEOPLE's had a magazine done on us a while back. I start to flip through the pages and read about Alix. She has done covers and songs with dozens of singers that the boys and I haven't. She's done a cover for Nicki Minaj's Roman's Revenge, Taylor Swift's We Are Never Getting Back Together, and more. She's sung with Eminem, Machine Gun Kelly (also known as MGK), Rihanna, Beyonce, Drake Bell, Wiz Khalifa, The Script, Cee-Lo Green, and Adam Levine.

As I look through, I see her new album release called, 'I am Alix Lapri'. As I look at her picture on the album cover, I smile. She is so delightful to look at in so many ways. Her eyes and smile show her refreshing, peppy, delighting, attractive personality.

I don't know how the boys will react if they find out that I am 'in-love' with Alix Lapri, and more importantly, how will she react. I sigh as I think about it.

Get over it Zayn, you can never have her, I think.

Wrong. I can. I just have to think on how I can.

My eyes flutter open as I feel two strong arms wrapped around my waist. I look and find Liam and I facing each other. His eyes are closed and he is sound asleep. He sleeps quietly and peacefully, like a baby and a still ocean. I find my hand on his toned stomach. My cheeks redden and I quickly remove my hand from that spot. I remember me coming in last night from fear of the thunderstorm and him allowing me to sleep in his room with him...and that's all. I fell asleep afterwards.

As I remember what I had happened, I notice how sweet and innocent Liam looks when asleep. He looks like a little kid and much younger than he is. I don't know what it is about people and whenever they are asleep, they look younger. Sigh I do.

I don't want to disturb Liam in his sleep, but I have to get out of his grip on my waist. I slowly and gently unwrap his arms from my waist and lie them down beside his head. He moves a little with his head and remains still again. I smile. I can't help but to lean my head forward as I lie down and press my lips against his temple. His cheeks redden afterwards.
