Poke… poke… poke.. poke.. poke.poke.poke. Who in their right mind is up at this ungodly hour?

            “What?!” I groaned, pulling more and more of the covers over my nearly exposed body.

            “Time to get up.” Lauren’s voice yelled in my ear, which caused me to have a spazz attack and fall out of bed.

            “Lauren it’s four in the morning what the hell!” I yelled after stealing a glance at my alarm clock.

            “Exactly! Just enough time for you to shower and get ready!” she explained. I looked her over some, realizing that her hair was wet and she looked wide awake. I rolled my eyes before walking to the bathroom and taking my shower.

            I wrapped a towel firmly around my body and walked back into my room, my stomach requesting food loudly with every step. I threw the towel in the clothes bin and put on a bra and some underwear before searching through my clothes for a suitable outfit.

            “LAUREN?” I yelled, hoping she was still here somewhere.

            “WHAT?”

            “WHAT DO I WEAR TO A REHEARSAL?”

            “I KNOW JUST AS MUCH AS YOU DO!”

            “BUT YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE THE SMART ONE!”

            “LAST TIME I CHECKED, I WAS THE BLONDE IN OUR RELATIONSHIP!”

            “SO?” She kind of had me there. Considering I had no idea what I should wear, and since I would most likely be hot and sweaty when this was over, I threw on my Nike shorts, Toms, and a Batman t-shirt. I walked back to the bathroom and scrunched my hair, braiding my bangs and pinning them back when the rest of my hair was done. I brushed my teeth and coated my lashes in mascara before meeting Lauren in the den.

            “Love that outfit.” I smiled at her when she fully stood up off the couch. Her bright pink converse added some color to the black tank top and denim cutoffs she was wearing. Her blonde hair fell in loose curls down her back and I really wanted to pull on one of them and see it bounce back, like I do so very often.

            “Thanks babe.” She smiled back.

            “We got, like, an hour and a half before we have to leave. Want to come with me to get a Monster?” I asked.

            “Not really.” She laughed.

            “Fine than you can wake Alexa up.” Her eyes widened in shock. “Have fun with that.” I smiled. I walked out of Liam’s apartment and stopped, a small smile coming onto my face. I quietly made my way down to Niall’s place and opened the door. I stepped in and shut it behind me before walking down to his room, where he was sound asleep. I crept up to his bed and started poking him, which got me nowhere.

            “Babe, wake up!” I whispered in his ear. He groaned and rolled on the other side. “Just to let you know, I made pancakes and Zayn is eating yours.” His eyes shot open and he jumped out of bed and ran out of the room. I fell back on the bed in a fit of laughter. Niall came in and just glared at me.

            “That wasn’t nice.” He said. I finally regained my composure and walked over to him.

            “Sorry but I had to get you up.” I smiled. “And since you are up, do you want to come with me to get a Monster?”
