-Chapter 29-

I woke up the next morning to the sound of the front door opening.

"Niall?" Liam's voice called out.

Oh God, this cannot be happening.

I was about to wake Niall up and warn him, but that's when I realised I would have no time left to hide.

"Niall?" This time it was Harry's voice that echoed throughout the room.

I quickly glanced around the living room and seconds before Harry appeared in the doorway, I dived behind the curtains. I scolded myself at my hiding place, but lucky the curtains were long and black, so hopefully I should be hidden enough.

"All the lights are off, maybe he's still asleep?" Harry called out, probably to Liam.

"Yeah, probably." Liam sighed.

"I'll go wake him up." Harry said. I heard the sound of footsteps on the stairs, and guessed that Harry had probably gone upstairs to fetch Niall, who he thought was sleeping in his bedroom.

My clothes were in a pile at the end of his bed...

"No need Harry, I've found him." Liam shouted, his voice louder since he was standing on the other side of the curtains... the fabric curtains.

Thank you Liam Payne!

I heard the sound of footsteps on the stairs again, and suddenly Harry was in the room as well.

"Why is he sleeping on his sofa?" Harry pondered out loud.

"Let's wake him up and see." Liam offered, and I could just imagine him scratch his chin, wondering how to wake up his fellow band mate.

"Shall I get the cold water?" Harry offered, and I imagined Liam sending him a death glare.

"It was just a suggestion." Harry huffed. I was right then.

"Let's just shake him." Liam said. I heard movement and a load groan coming from Niall.

"Cora." He mumbled, the sound of fabric rustling covering it up a bit.

Please Niall, please just shut the hell up.

"No, it's Liam." Liam said, insisting on his name.

"Where's Cora?" Niall asked, his voice suddenly sounding wide awake.

Niall, just please use your intelligent Irish mind and figure out why I am no longer by your side.

"No idea, probably at her house. Why?" Harry said.

"I ugh, oh God. I'm shattered." Niall faked a yawn.

He's finally realised.

"Yeah..." Harry trailed off, his voicing telling me that he wasn't convinced.

"Why are you sleeping on your sofa?" Liam questioned.

"My knee was really sore last night, so I couldn't really get up the stairs." Niall lied.

"Oh, okay." Liam said, and I couldn't tell if he believed Niall or not.

"What are you guys doing here?" Niall finally asked the question that I was dying to know.

"Well you missed the meeting, and Liam wanted to come tell you what you missed, and since he's my ride I had to tag along, too." Harry explained.

"Shit, my alarm didn't wake me up!" Niall yelled. I heard the movement of fabric, and footsteps, so I assumed that Niall had gotten up.
