(LOUIS comes home, surprised to see most of the lights out. He turns them on, sees that no one's in the living room. He then walks quietly upstairs to his room, lays in bed, closes his eyes for a while until he feels something thrown on his chest.)

LOUIS: (startled) "Holy shit! What the fuck?" (hastily kicks the object out of his bed, looks at the person in front of him, shocked) "Fizzy?!"

FIZZY: (laughs uncontrollably) "Gotcha!" (raises a phone on LOUIS) "I'm sorry, but that's just epic!"

LOUIS: "Jesus Christ." (eyes wide) "And you recorded it?!"

FIZZY: (laughs even more) "Hmm ... yeah. Your fans are going to love this!"

LOUIS: (raises his hand to block her phone) "Please stop it. Turn it off!"

FIZZY: "Too late. Will post this later."

LOUIS: (breathes heavily) "You got me there, Fizzy. You know that I hate birds."

FIZZY: "I still don't get it why would you be afraid of them, Lou. You even kissed Kevin before."

LOUIS: "That ... is a different story."

FIZZY: "So, Kevin is not a bird?"

LOUIS: "Please, never do that again."

FIZZY: (keeps her phone, picks up the stuffed toy) "I thought you're only afraid of the real ones, not this?"

LOUIS: (raises hands in defense) "Keep that thing away!"

FIZZY: "If you say so."

(throws it again at him)

LOUIS: "Félicité Tomlinson, you're dead!" (throws it back to her, then tickles his sister)

FIZZY: (laughs nonstop) "Okay! Okay! I'm done, I'm good! (raises her hands in defeat)

LOUIS:(laughs with her) "Awesome!"

FIZZY: "I hate it when you call me that."

LOUIS: "At least it made you stop. You know I only call you that when—"

FIZZY: (teasing) "You're mad, I know, I know."

LOUIS: (sits back on his bed) "Good that you still know that."

FIZZY: "Just like any other parent or older brother. I hate it." (sits beside him) "We good?"

LOUIS: (lightly pats her arm) "Of course, we are. Just don't do that again."

FIZZY: (laughs, but stops herself) "I'm sorry."

LOUIS: "Oh come on, I didn't get mad. I was messing with you."

FIZZY: "So, we're even?"

LOUIS: (nods, smiles) "Yup. Got my revenge on that one."

FIZZY: "Awesome!"
