Zoe's POV

When I woke up in the morning Niall and Liam were still asleep so I left them and just about managed to untangle myself from the duvet and their arms which were wrapped around me. I slipped my Uggs onto my cold feet and crept downstairs into the kitchen where Zayn was sat texting on his phone.

"Morning Zo" he smiled and pulled me onto his lap.

"Morning, what you doing?" I asked, motioning to the phone.

"None of your business" he said mysteriously, an evil grin creeping onto his face.

I return the evil stare but he slips his phone into his pocket and stands up, throwing me onto his back.

"Wanna go and wake the others?" He asked.

I nodded and laughed as he jogged upstairs with me clinging on for dear life. We first went into his room where Harry and Louis were fast asleep, cocooned in the duvet.

I slipped off of his back and he directed me to jump on the bed with him. We jumped up and down, screaming wake up at the top of our lungs while the two boys try to hide underneath the blankets. Harry grabbed my arm and pulled me underneath the duvet with him, hugging me tightly.

"Morning Haz" I said into his chest.

His kissed my forehead before throwing the duvet off of him and getting up, leaving me with a still asleep Louis.

"Louis" I whispered into his ear.

I kissed his cheek to see if that would wake him up. No luck. I shook his shoulder. No luck.

"You asked for it" I said.

I positioned my hands perfectly before jabbing them into his sides, making his body jump at the shock.

"Zoe!" He screamed at me as I jumped off the bed and sprinted out the door and down the hall towards the stairs.

Liam was nearly knocked flying when he came out the bedroom and was crossed by me running for dear life away from Louis.

"You're so dead!" Louis shouted, trying not to laugh.

When I get halfway down the stairs he has almost caught up with me so I jump the rest and sprint towards the front door, flinging it open and running outside into the snow.

When I realised I was only in my pyjamas I stopped and rubbed my arms to try and warm myself up. Bad idea, very very bad idea.

I was knocked over by Louis who tackled me into a huge mound of snow, getting us both soaked and shivering all over.

"You know, next time I should probably just let you tackle me onto the sofa" I laughed, blowing on my hands as we walked back into the house.

"Or you could just leave me to sleep" he suggested, sitting down at the kitchen table with me opposite him.

"It was Zayn!" I exclaimed.

"Zo, why would I do something like that, I'm a nice person" Zayn lied, putting his hand to his heart.

I glared at him and knew I would be getting him back later. Harry and Liam were eating their breakfast but there was no sign of Niall so I went upstairs to find him lying under the blanket but with his eyes open, I thoughtful expression on his face.

"You alright?" I asked unsurely from the doorway.

He lifted his head slightly to see me and smiled, opening his arms for a hug like a little kid. I crawled onto the bed a laid beside him.

"You look troubled" I said.

"Sometimes, I just think...maybe..." He stuttered.

"Cmon Niall, spit it out" I squeezed his hand.
