Niall's body was bent over the fridge of their kitchen as he rummaged through the contents of the refrigerator looking for the pack of oreo cookies he has been craving since the afternoon. A glass of milk and a plate was ready for the cookies sat at the kitchen counter. He grunted and as he moved tupperwares of leftover food and fruits and boxes of cakes, cupcakes and fruit cakes given to them as Christmas presents and cans of beers and cokes.
His eyes lit up as he saw the familiar blue package at the very back. He reached out his hand and pulled out the cookies he had been looking for. He opened the large package and he smiled seeing as there was still a few oreo cookies left. He dumped the cookies on the plate before the threw the blue packet on the trash bin.
He took the plate and glass of milk and he proceeded to the decorated living room. He set the cookies and milk at the coffee table and made himself comfortable on the couch. A Disney special was on the television, where Niall had left to get the cookies. It was AChristmasCaroland he smiled at Scrooge McDuck as he scoffed at his nephew, Donald Duck who was being enthusiastic and greeting everyone a Merry Christmas. Grumpyoldduck, Niall thought, chuckling.
He took an Oreo cookie from the plate and he held it between the fingers of his two hands. He twisted it revealing the creamy filling inside, he licked it off before joining both the cookies and dunking it on his milk. Might be a childlike thing to do, but Niall loved doing this. Eating cookies with a glass of milk on a December night, sitting comfortably on the couch in a cozy jumper in the dim lighted well decorated living room. A glowing Christmas tree stood at the corner of the house next to the fireplace, and a Disney Christmas special on the tv.
He could hear the distant sound of children and adult carolers in the distance, singing Christmas carols, spreading the spirit of Christmas and hoping to be given even a small amount of money as a donation to charities or for them. Niall never really had the chance to experience going out on a December night, singing Christmas songs and go caroling. He guessed maybe its because nobody wants to do it with him. They preferred partying until the early hours in the morning instead of walking around town, singing songs from house to house.
He was brought out from his comfortable stance when his third cousin, Jay, came bounding down the stairs calling out his name. "Niall! Niall!" He shouted excitedly, jumping up and down and waving his hands enthusiastically. "Come quick! You got to see this!" He said waving his hand, indicating Niall to follow him, as he ran up the stairs again, two steps at a time. Niall groaned and reluctantly stood up from the couch. He followed Jay up the stairs to see him looking out the large glass window, framed with dark square frames, overlooking the front yard and the neighborhood.
"What's all this about, James?" He asked Jay, using his full name. Niall just ushered him with his hand to come and look out the window. Niall rolled his eyes and walked towards the glass window, at first he didn't know what he was looking, could it be the Payne's well decorated house filled with Christmas lights just across the street, or the clear night sky that was illuminated by a cresent moon. It wasn't until Jay pointed out a couple of people standing in their front yard, and his eyes nearly popped out of his sockets. Standing in front of their lawn was non nother than Zayn Malik, with a triangle, along with his group of friends, Dan Richards, who was playing a guitar. Josh Devine, with sleigh bells. Jon Shone, playing the cabaça, Sandy Beales, with a sistrum along with Louis Tomlinson and his boyfriend Harry Styles, playing the kazoo.
"Isn't that theguythat you have been crushing on for so long? What was his name again?" Jay asked pointing to a certain black haired guy wearing a grey hoodie over a red flannel shirt, singing along with his friends to some Christmas song. Jay snapped his fingers as he finally knew the lads name. "ZaynMalik!" He exclaimed. "Yes, yes! That's him! Man, he is fit!" He said, his gayness showing. Though he clearly said he was bi. "You totally have good taste in men, Ni." Jay acknowledges Niall. "I'd go for it if I were you. Wonder how he is in bed? He could go all Christian Grey on me anytime," he said, fanning his face with his hands, making wierd squealing noises. Niall rolled his eyes at his cousin's wierd behavior, and choice of words. Leave it up to him to make peverted comments most of the time.
