Love Life and Niall Horan

• 15 •

"But...? He could just be late? Or he really could have just got distracted." I said, panicking slightly.

"If he is I'll kill him." Zayn ranted, "He's getting everyone worked up."

"I'm sure he's fine." Demi said reassuringly.

Louis nodded slightly before wiping his tears and giving Liam a hug, sitting down on the sofa softly, a look of concentration on his face.

"I know." Justin grinned, "How about we play a game?"

Everyone looked at him weirdly, "what game?" I asked after a minute of silence.

"Musical chairs!" He laughed.

I twisted my eyebrows up in confusion before laughing loudly.

Everyone gave me strange looks as I laughed but I just ignored them.

I suppose I was just laughing to avoid crying.

Harry is one of my best friends.

What if he'd been kidnapped? What if something worse had happened to him?

I suppose you could say that if I think about something too much then I worry about it until it's sorted.

It's one of the things I hate about myself.

I breathed in slowly to stop laughing and sat back in my chair, staring up at everyone who was now staring at me like I was crazy.

"Okay then. Let's play that." I giggled.

This caused me to receive more weird looks.

"Okay...?" Justin questioned slowly, "but there's a twist. As long as a person is sitting on a chair with their feet off the ground they're still in. So basically you can sit on people, but only one person can sit on another person. Everyone in?"

Everyone except Louis mumbled a yes.

"Louis?" Niall asked.

"Hm? Oh, yeah. I'll play." He said, smiling.

You could tell it was a fake smile. I've used so much of them I can tell if one is fake.

"Can I do the music?" Liam asked.

"Yeah." Justin decided, laughing slightly.

Everyone got a chair from random places in the house before putting them in a rectangle and sitting on them.

I was beside Louis and Justin.

"Everyone know the rules?" Liam asked.

I started laughing again, "Who doesn't?"

Liam shook his head in disapproval at me jokingly before grinning.

"I really cannot believe I'm playing this." Zayn groaned.

"Nope, me either." I agreed.

"Okay. Everyone go." Liam cheered, putting Lawson's 'Standing In the Dark' on.

Everyone started walking around as Liam took a chair out and I couldn't help but laugh.

The music stopped suddenly and I looked around helplessly as all the seats were took so I jumped on the person closest to me and lifted my feet off the ground.

"Hey there." Justin laughed, grinning at me in amusement.

"Hi." I said sheepishly. "I know, I'm heavy."

"Yes, you are." He admitted.

I just laughed as the music started again and Liam took a chair out, bringing it to the side of the room.
