It's been nearly two years since One Direction started their hiatus, so when the boys publicly message each other or show love for each other in interviews, we get that warm fuzzy feeling in our hearts.

So when 1D boys Niall Horan and Louis Tomlinson started tweeting each other over the weekend, we screamed with excitement! 🙌

And they didn't disappoint with their banter...

Settling down to watch The X Factor on Saturday night, Louis tweeted about Irish brothers Sean and Connor Price when he wrote, 'I like these little Irish lads but enough with the rapping'.

Not allowing his former band mate to say a bad word about the Irish, Niall jokingly replied saying, 'Stop talking about me like that , I’ll rap if I want . You know I can spit bars.'

Both boys then went full on, jokingly ripping into each other for their rap skills...

Oh boys! 😂😂😂

Of course Directioners went wild at the series of messages between the pair and took to Twitter to express their excitement, and one particular message caught the eye of Louis.

A fan called @tommobehappy shared a Photoshopped snap of Louis and Niall wearing sunglasses and large gold chains.

Seeing the funny side, Louis brought Liam Payne into the conversation when he replied to the snap writing, 'nice of liam to lend us his chain !!'.

WELL PLAYED LOUIS! 🙈

Despite missing One Direction considerable amounts, we can't complain at the amount of solo tunes the boys have been dropping lately.

All four members of the group have all released solo material in 2017, Harry Styles dropped his self titled album featuring the singles 'Kiwi' and 'Sign Of The Times', Liam Payne has dropped the likes of 'Strip That Down', 'Get Low' and 'Bedroom Floor, and Niall Horan dropped his debut album 'Flicker' last month.

Louis has also been a busy boy, he's teamed up with Steve Aoki on 'Just Hold On' and Bebe Rexha on the track 'Back To You'.

Louis is set to take the stage in Manchester tomorrow night (Thursday 9th November) alongside the likes of Rita Ora, Rudimental, James Arthur, Zara Larsson, John Newman, Louisa Johnson and Sigala.
