I could feel everyone’s eyes on me as Niall and I strolled back into the crowded bedroom. My cheeks instantly warmed, and I ducked my head to hide my embarrassment. Niall, who already had his arm wrapped around my waist, tightened his grip and pulled me in closer, a huge grin spread across his lips. The lovely smell of his favourite aftershave drifted around me and up to my nose, and I inhaled greedily. How I loved the smell of these boys.

Nobody said anything as Niall dragged me over to the unmade bed and plopped down, placing me beside him, knee's touching. I took a quick glance over at the blonde boy, who was still smiling. Come to think of it, I don't think he even stopped since I confessed my love for him.

Hmm.

“So, what's the plan?” He asked cheerfully, as if nothing had happened. He cheeks were splattered with pink, and his shaggy blonde hair was just beginning to dry. His blue eyes were filled with adrenaline, ready for whatever was coming our way.

“P-Plan?” Liam gaped, confused by Niall's sudden change of mood.

“C'mon Li! You're the brains in this bunch, don't tell me you don't have a plan.” He smirked, his Irish accent ringing clearly through his words.

“Uhm, well...I did have this one theory that might help us with Zayn and Laura...” Liam admitted shyly, rubbing the back of his neck with his hand.

“And?”

“Well...Me and Louis kind of came up with this theory that since Kiana was able to snap him out of Laura's spell, maybe she'd be able to do it again with Zayn. Like it's another one of her powers progressing.” He smiled, turning his big brown orbs on mine.

I shrugged. “Alright. It's worth a try, right? We don't exactly have a plan B. What do I have to do?”

“But what if she faints again? We don't know how bad it could be this time around.” Niall interrupted, his blue eyes stern.

“You think we didn't discuss that already? It's possible that the only reason she fainted in the first place was because of Jensen pulling her into that dream. It may have been just a large coincident. He knows how useful she is, he won't try that again. Even if anything does go astray, Ash will be right beside her. She saved her from death once, she can do it again. Nothing could go wrong.” Louis answered, sending a cheeky smile my way. Unwanted butterflies instantly swelled up inside my stomach. Damn you, Louis.

Niall just grunted in reply.

“Okay...but then how are we even going to get near enough to Zayn for this to happen? If I remember correctly, Harry said that she was grabbing your wrist. What if she needs to be physically touching him for it to work? Laura sure as hell isn't going to give him over to us without a fight.” Niall retorted, removing his hand from around my waist to push the stray blonde locks away from his eyes. Louis' eyes trailed his arm, watching with narrowed eyes as he placed his arm behind me.

“True, I did say that. But we're already a step ahead of you, Ni.” Harry piped in from across the room. He shook his hair out twice, before giving his curls a push over to the side of his face.

“I might as well just explain the plan from the beginning. So basically, Ash and I will go over to Laura and Zayn saying we split from the group. That way, we can be around then and make sure they can't ambush you or anything stupid like that when Louis calls Laura and tells her he wants her back.” I felt my eyes widen in shock. Harry noticed too.
