Taken

Chapter 7: Five Best Friends

The next day, I was rudely awoken by having the cover jerked off of me. I had fallen asleep last night in shorts and a tank top so when the cover was pulled off of me, the cool air of Niall's bedroom touched my skin. I immediately opened my eyes, and sat up, my heart beating madly in my chest. I looked around and found Harry and Louis standing there, the cover dangling by their hands between them.

Annoyance boiled up inside of me as I stared at the stupid grins on their faces. The two of the just looked at me, smiling cheekily.

"Good morning!" Louis chirped.

"How'd you sleep, Beautiful?" Harry asked in the same tone of voice as Louis. I slowly shifted into a crouch on the bed.

"Would have slept a lot better if I hadn't been interrupted." I said.

"Who would do such a thing?" Louis asked, faking shock.

"Hmm. I wonder."

"So do I." Harry said. Both of them were still smiling goofily.

"Why are you in here waking me up?"

"Zayn, Liam, and Niall went out for breakfast." Harry explained. "They told us to stay here in case you woke up."

"They didn't want you waking up, and us being gone with no explanation." Louis said.

"In case I woke up. I wasn't going to wake up for quite a while. So why. Are you in here. Waking me up?"

"We got lonely." Harry said. My eyes narrowed.

"Run." I said menacingly.

"What?" Louis asked, his brows furrowing.

"Oh Lord!" Harry yelled as I jumped from the bed. The cover fell from his hand, and he ran from the room while I knocked Louis to the ground. I climbed to my feet quickly, and ran after Harry. I followed him down the stairs and into the living room. I knocked him down, and sat down on his back. Grabbing one of his legs, I pulled it towards me, stretching his lower back.

"Ow! Ow! Stop!" Harry yelled. "You are hurting me!"

"That's the point!" I said. "You woke me up." I pulled his leg back again.

"Louis, help me!" He yelled. "Ow! Amberlynn, stop it!" I didn't pay attention to Louis frantically entering the living room, and then the kitchen. That is, until something hit me. I looked down to where it landed on the floor beside me, and saw a bright orange carrot.

I looked over to Louis, my eyebrow raised. I let go of Harry's leg and went after Louis. I knocked him down, and sat down on his back. I pulled his arms toward me.

"Ouch! Stop it!" He yelped. Harry tried to help him, but ended up in the same position as before. I went back and forth between the two of them for a while until I eventually threw the two of them down in a pile, and sat down on top of both of them. I had them both in a submission hold, and like before, they were both yelling for me to stop. I wasn't doing anything that would injure them. I'm not stupid. I just wanted to get the point across not to wake me up.

"You didn't have a legit reason for waking me up." I told them.

"Okay! Okay! We're sorry!" Louis yelled.

"Owww! Amberlynn! Let us go!" Harry yelled.

"Do you hear that?" A new voice asked. I recognized it as Liam. Niall, Liam, and Zayn entered the living room.

"Oh. Hi, guys." I smiled at them. They looked at the three of us for a minute, and then started laughing.

"It's not funny! Get her off!" Harry begged.
