Emily's POV

I woke up and screamed as my ears were assaulted with loud pops and I felt small, lightweight items fall onto my face. My mind was still hazy from sleep, so it took a little while for me to recognise the tune the voices were singing.  

"Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday dear Emily,
Happy Birthday to you!"

I froze.

Voices? Why were there people in my room? Was I even in my room?

I looked around and noticed that I was not, in fact, in my room, but instead in Gaby's living room. I groaned and I felt the kink in my neck from sleeping on the couch on a funny angle. I managed to turn my head in the direction of the voices, only to scream when I found myself staring at Karly's face.

 "WHAT THE HELL, GUYS! YOU ALL SCARED ME! WHY THE HELL ARE YOU ALL SINGING HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME?"

 Karly started laughing as I checked my phone and saw the time and date.   

 It was the 27th of December, 8:30am.

 I pushed Karly off the couch and onto the floor before directing my glare to focus on Gaby and Olivia.

 "I don't know what you two have done, but:

1. Who is this person who looks like Karly and what is she doing here? My Twinny would never be up this early.

2. It is 8:30 am, why the fuck did you two decide to wake me now? It's like the middle of the night!

3. What the hell did you wake me up with? I heard pops and then these light - "

 Gaby rolled her eyes.

 "Um:

1. It is Karly. Olivia woke her up at 7:30 so that we'd be here to wake you up."

 "And believe me, it wasn't easy waking her."

 Gaby nodded then continued.

 "2. We woke you up now because the boys are arriving here at 10am and we thought you'd want to get ready.

3.  We used party poppers and confetti. We thought we'd keep it classy."

 I was certain I'd heard her wrong.

"Wait, the boys are arriving at 10? As in, 5sos?"

 "Yes..."  

 "Are we meeting them at the airport?"

 "Well, that's what we needed to discuss, but yes."

 I jumped off the couch, making sure to avoid Karly who was now lying on the ground.

 "THAT MEANS I'VE ONLY GOT AN HOUR AND A HALF TO GET READY!"

 I ran to my bag and took out one of my outfits. I was about to run up the stairs, when I thought twice about my choice. I turned back to my bag and pulled out two other outfits. I couldn't decide which one to wear, so I turned to the girls.

 Karly and Olivia shrugged.

 "You're asking the wrong people, Em."

 I turned to Gaby and held out the outfits.

 "What one should I wear? I need to make a good first impression!"
