november woke up next to niall to the sound of her phone ringing. she looked around the car, totally forgetting niall never took her back to the dorms.

she purposely let it go to voicemail, scrolling through her notifications.

november dialed bri's number, panicking. she felt guilty for not answering her phone, but she felt even guiltier for being so irresponsible as to not getting her own report card.

"where the fuck have you been? what the fuck do you think you're doing just staying out all night, not replying to my texts? that boy was supposed to bring you home by curfew and he didn't! when you come back here oh god you better fuckin' pray i don't beat your ass," bri yelled.

november tried not to laugh, because she knew bri wasn't joking. niall tossed and turned in his sleep, pulling november closer to him. he was like a giant teddy bear.

"i'm so so sorry, bri. my phone was on silent and i've been a bit," she looked at niall who was quietly snoring, "busy."

"busy doin' what? where even are you?"

"in the backseat of niall's car," november yawned.

"what? oh my god please tell me you didn't do anything stupid."

november rolled her eyes, "no, bri. he was going to take me back but we fell asleep. nothing else happened. he's not even awake yet."

november waited for bri's response, but all she got was a quiet hum and the sound of water running.

niall let out a soft groan, placing his head on november's chest. she was a bit uncomfortable, but let it slide.

"i have to go finish packing. when are you gonna be back?" bri sighed.

"before 1:00, i promise. love you."

november hung up, placing her phone on the car floor. she ran her fingers through niall's hair, gently tugging. his brown roots were growing back in, but she liked it like that.

"baby," niall suddenly mumbled.

november kept running her fingers through niall's hair in response. he lifted his head up, looking at november. he smiled lazily and sat up.

"'m sorry i didn't bring you back to the dorm. bri probably wants to kill me."

november laughed, sitting up and pulling her hair into a high ponytail. "can you take me back to the room? i have to finish packing and get my report card from bri."

niall nodded, climbing into the front seat and driving back to UCLA.

after packing the rest of her things, november waited for her father to come by and pick everything up. she was so excited to go home again and be surrounded by her childhood friends.

as soon as she saw her dad's car pull up, she waved, running to mr. rivera when he came out. it took them an hour to load everything, but in the end, november was thankful she had such an amazing dad.

niall was in his dorm making his last minute plans for the summer. he was leaving for ireland tomorrow, and coming back at the end of july to spend the rest of the break with november.

zayn didn't have any plans. he told niall he was going to hang out with his friend named "naughty boy", which niall teased him for, but zayn just ignored him and went back to texting chloe.

after the room was packed, niall looked around, pleased with how well they cleaned up.

tomorrow was going to be a long day.
