Niall's POV:

I woke up around eleven. Pulling on a pair of sweatpants I walked to the kitchen. Harry had made pancakes. I stacked my plate with a few pancakes and joined the lads at the table.

The day went by very slowly. I packed my luggage, glancing at the clock every once and a while. Bored stiff, I turned on the television. The meaningless shows blended together as I willed time to move faster.

Lissy's POV:

I had woken up bright and early, even though I had talked with my girls late into the night. We rarely ate at the club, so like usual, I skipped breakfast. Yet with lack of sleep and no sustenance in me, I was still hyper. I was running on pure hype as tonight was approaching. Tonight I would finally leave this place!

The day flew by quickly. My coworkers had given me five pairs of shoes to pack. I was lucky as I wore the smallest shoe size, so anything that didn't fit the other girls, I could keep. I packed the shoes, leaving out my moccasins to wear on the plane. I changed into my sweatpants and oversized T-shirt with a colorful giraffe and packed my old clothes, my cat sweater and mint leggings. I threw my hair in a high ponytail, French braiding from the back of my neck to the ponytail elastic. Rebecca offered to do my makeup and I let her as she would never get the chance to do it again. She gave me cat flick eyeliner, just how I liked it. I gave her a tight hug and she laughed. I finished up my packing by throwing my tooth brush and little makeup into my bag. It was official, I was leaving. I checked the clock: 4: 47 pm. The boys would be here any second. I gave all my sisters a final hug, tears threatening to roll down from my cheeks. Candy kissed my cheek and told me to be safe. I smiled, that was definitely Candy, always looking out for you. I slipped into my Peter pan looking moccasins and threw on my flimsy coat. I felt a bulge in the side and remembered about the drugs. I groaned and fished them out. I placed them on the dresser, as I couldn't take them with me. I waved a sad goodbye to my best friends. Right before I left I thankfully remembered to grab my passport. I couldn't help but give away another round of hugs before leaving my old room. I walked down the stairs, ready to leave. My cats, as they were outside/inside cats, we're waiting outside. As on cue, Harry strolled into the club. I wanted to wave, but that would give the whole plan away. He approached one of the guards to, I assumed, ask where my boss was. The guard pointed at a massive door which lead to his office. Harry knocked and my boss appeared in the doorway. Harry tried to sound intimidating as he spoke, "I want to rent Bambi." My boss looked him up and down and agreed, signing me over for the night. He took a step away from the door and was about to shout up the stairs, to call me down I assumed, when he noticed me. I hid my passport in my coat sleeve as my boss saw me. He growled at me to get up. I stood up and he grabbed my jacket collar. "Don't screw this up, Slut." He threw me in the direction of Harry, who caught me in surprise. I was just glad my boss' pep talk was cut short. Harry strolled out the club, cool as a cucumber. He even added a collar snap for effect. I nearly started laughing at his perfectly executed move. I followed behind, my head low. We exited the building and I practically jumped with joy. There was a black car with tinted windows parked by the curb. Harry opened the door for me and I waved hello to the boys. Monti and Eloise were perched on a discarded garbage can outside the club doors, as expected. I called them over and they joined me by the car. I got in and sat beside Liam. I placed my bag on the floor by my feet before hauling my cats up into the car. They were very well trained and they say quietly on my lap. The driver sped off and I couldn't help but grin widely. Liam noticed my thrilled expression and gave me a side hug. Before we knew it, we had arrived at the airport. This time there was a massive amount of security. Outside my window there was a huge crowd of girls, screaming and chanting for 'One Direction'. My mouth hung open, the boys never said they were this famous! The group was held back by both private and airport security. The car kept driving, passing the screaming girls. We parked at the side entrance of the building. Lead by more security, we walked through the busy halls of the airport. I placed Eloise on my shoulders and she sat down like a parrot perched on a pirate. I held Monti in my arms as we navigated the busy airport. We stopped in front of a kiosk that handled animals. I checked in my cats and the lady behind the counter placed them both into a carrying case.
