- BLAIRE'S POV -

The next morning, I have trouble waking up; I don't even want to get out of bed. I rub my eyes as I sit up, trying to find the motivation to get out of bed.

I reach for my phone, which has been vibrating on the bedside table for some time.

"Incoming call from Chris."
I pick it up.

- Hello?

Chris
- Blaire! You're finally awake!

Blaire
- Yeah, sorry... I had a bit of trouble this morning.

Chris
- Get dressed quickly! And go get Bill and Keisha! I don't know where they are... They're probably still asleep. I can't reach them.

Blaire
- Yes, yes, okay...
I say as I hang up.
Too much energy and too much information for a difficult morning.

I head for my wardrobe, still stretching. I grab a random top and skirt and quickly slip them on.

I head for the bathroom to catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror.
- it's okay i guess...
I say, grabbing my toothbrush.

I stick my back to the wall as I brush my teeth, thinking about everything that's happened since we've been with the boys' group.

I feel my heart pounding in my chest as Tom erupts into my mind.

I wipe my mouth and walk out of the room. I take the elevator to the floor where Bill is.

I take a few steps before knocking on his door. I hear a commotion inside. I frown as I watch the door open, revealing Bill in nothing but boxer shorts. He flinches, not expecting to see me.
- Blaire! What are you doing here?!

Blaire
- Um...Seeing what you're doing. Because Chris is waiting for you downstairs.

Bill
- Ah yes, yes! I'll be down.

Blaire
- You can tell Keisha to come down too.

Bill's eyes widen.
- Keisha? But she's not here.

I sigh, nudging him slightly to get in. I notice clothes all over the floor, and look up to see Keisha, almost naked, hiding under the comforter.

I'm wide-eyed, a slight laugh coming out of my mouth.
- Beautiful

Keisha
- It's not what you think!

I start laughing.
- Oh, it's exactly what I think.
I look at her amused.
- So you sleep with the guys you hate?

Keisha grabs a pillow and throws it at me.
- Go away!

I grab the pillow and hand it back to Bill.
- Honestly... I respect you.
I say, patting the young man on the chest and heading for the bedroom exit.

Keisha
- Blaire I hate you!

Blaire
- I love you too.
I say as I press the elevator button.

As I enter it, I feel my head turn slightly. I haven't eaten in a while now. I feel a knot in my stomach.

Blaire
- Shit Blaire.
I say to myself.

I head for the reception where Tom, Gustav and Georg are waiting for us.

Gustav
- Here's one! Four more to go!
