I head downstairs all dressed ready for the day even though it's like 8am but I like to be up and ready most mornings.

I get to the bottom of the step and everyone is on the sofa lying down watching the tv. all in their pjs still.

"good morning" I say to everyone with a smile as I go to the living room to join them.

they all look at me in horror.

"why on earth are you awake, ready and even functioning at this time" Eli and everyone agreed.

"oh come on, it's not that early and besides I woke up early so what's the point staying in bed?" I shrug getting up to get myself a drink of water.

"delusional" Eli mutters which makes me and everyone laugh.

"what are you all doing today?" Quinn asks sitting up to chance her position.

"nothing" Eli says putting his head back on the pillow.

"well my clothes get launched today so I'll be waiting for a message off the managers of the website to see how it all went" I say taking a seat on one of the stools"

"wow omg it's happening today? I thought it was like tomorrow for some reason" Sophie says shooting her from her seat.

"nope it's today, freaking out a bit but I'll be fine" I nervously laugh filling up my glass again to get another glass of water.

"don't stress it, it will sell out immediately" she returns giving me a reassuring smile.

"can we go for like dinner somewhere just casual. I want nice food" Eli groans into his pillow.

"I thought you were doing nothing?" Felix teases.

"food is worth life so I'd do anything for a Nando's in my stomach" Eli replies.

"I'll come" Sophie and Quinn say.

"I'm working till 3, but I'll come next time" Reece says standing up from the sofa to head to the kitchen.

a feel of disappoint rushes through me as he mentions he's not coming.

I wonder why he works so much, like I get he's an adult and you have to work but he still lives in his family home I'm pretty sure, what Sophie told me anyways but he works like almost 24/7.

"I'll let you guys know later if I'm up to it" I say smiling before going upstairs to head to the bathroom.

I decide on going to Nando's with everyone because like Eli said 'food is life.'

I head home after and just wait patiently for the phone call.

I know it got launched recently, I knew launch time was 12pm and it's 2:30pm. I was distracting myself by driving around waiting for time to pass by.
