Amber's POV:

- Friday -

 It was finally my day to just be with my girls. I told the lads to spend the night in someone else's flat and to watch Lilli for me as well; they didn't mind one bit. I got Lilli all ready for her sleepover after I was done getting ready for mine. We skyped with my parents while we waited for everyone.

"I miss you, Lilli!" My Mom blew her kisses and she caught them; I knew how much this situation killed my Mom. We were going to fly out to America to spend Christmas with my parents and I was so excited. Lilli hopped off my lap to go watch some TV. "So the boys are going to watch her for you tonight?"

"Yeah, I'm so happy to finally have a night with my girls." I twirled the ends of my hair that was put up in a ponytail. I haven't told my Mom about the new baby yet; she deserved to know in person. I think I'm going to tell her at Christmas. I heard someone knock at the door and told my Mom I had to go. "I love you, Mom. Lilli, tell Mommom bye!"

I got up and pulled at my top, heading over to the door. When I opened it, Ali stood out in the snow. "Hey, hope you don't mind that I came early!" I let her in and she shook the snow off of her; I can't believe it was still snowing!

"Hey, no it's fine. I wasn't doing anything anyway." Lilli ran by me to give Ali a big hug.

"Hello my little love bug! How are you?" All the girls loved Lilli to death; she had that effect on everyone though. Ali had been to the flat before, but none of the other girls have. None of them have met the guys either so I didn't mention anything about them picking Lilli up. "So let's get this party started!"

She unzipped her black hoodie and hung it up on the coat rack by the door. She had on blue pajama pants and a top that said 'I Ain't Even Mad Bro' on it. Her long, blonde hair fell in perfect curls by her face. I turned around to talk to Lilli and when I turned around, Ali had a bottle of wine in her hands.

"Oh Ali," She ran to the cabinet where we kept the wine glasses and started to pour us some. "You really shouldn't have." I said with a real sarcastic tone.

"Oh, it was nothing. Really!" She handed me a glass and started a toast. "To dance! Without it, I wouldn't have met my best friend." I raised my glass and smiled a little. Her head leaned back and took a huge sip of it while I just stood there watching her. When she was done she just stared at me, confused. "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing. It's just that.." I started to trail off. I really wanted to tell them the news when we were all together. "I'm not drinking."

"Oh, okay." She shrugged her shoulders and dumped my drink down the drain. Oh wow, she didn't even get it. Thank goodness; with that I heard another knock at the door. Gill, Grace, and Bri came walking in. "It's the rest of our club!"

"And what club is that?" Grace laughed out as she unbottoned her pea coat; her long hair was braided and whipped around whenever she moved. She had a floral pair of pajama pants on and a light, grey sweat shirt. Why did everyone come in their pajamas?

"I don't know! Maybe we're just that cool that we don't have a name for our club." It was like we were sixteen year old girls; only this was better. We all settled in on the sofa and started to chat. "So is Lilli going to be here all night? Not that I mind, I'm just curious."

 "No, Liam'll be over soon to pick her up." And so will the rest of the boys; I wonder how that was going to go. "Well we have quite the night planned." I tried to brighten up this drab sleepover a little by playing some music.

"Let's see you dance, Lilli! Show everyone what you learned in class the other day." Bri egged her on. She was wearing plain, grey sweat pants and a black top; kitten slippers were snug on her feet. I stared at them and she punched my arm. "Stop being jealous!"

Lilli danced around the living room and we all cheered her on. Gill even started to dance around with her even though she always told us she couldn't dance. "I only dance with my Lilli Buddy!" She shot us a wink.

"Oh, I see what you did there. Very cleaver, Gill. Very cleaver." Grace wagged her finger at Gill who was still dancing with Lilli. Her zebra printed pants started to give me a head ache and I started to feel sick. I darted to the bathroom and threw up.

"You okay, Baby?" Gill rubbed my back as my face lingered over the toilet just in case I was going to get sick again. "Did you catch something? You've been getting sick a lot."

"No, I'm fine. I think I just have a weak stomach." I rinsed my mouth out and went back to the living room. We turned on the TV and watched Disney Channel; we couldn't put on any of our movies yet since Lilli was still there. I finally heard a knock at my door.

"Babe, it's us! Let us in!" Liam shouted from beyond my door.

"Us?" Ali questioned me and all the other girls stared at me, waiting for my answer. I guess I couldn't keep this secret anymore.

"Oh, did I forget to mention that the boys would be over tonight? Just for a little bit." All of their faces lit up and I knew what they were thinking; oh brother, what have I done?
