Chapter 5 - Picture perfect

The next time I awoke, the room was dark and empty, I also noticed I had duvet covering me. I rubbed my eyes, thankful that I wasn't in any pain, at the moment anyway. I grabbed my phone and looked at the time, 01.00am.

Did I really sleep for 8 hours solid, Jesus.

There goes the rest of my night's sleep. I sat up, running my hands through my hair, my stomach growled at me, guess that's what I get for sleeping through dinner. I stood up, grabbing my crutches and finding a light, which I switched on and blinked furiously, trying to be as quiet as possible also, so not to wake everyone else. I went into the kitchen to make myself some food, well, some toast.

"Keane...what are you doing?" I span around, Noah was stood there,

"Getting some food"

"It's 10 past 1 in the morning"

"I know...but I slept through dinner and now I'm pain free and not tired"

"Well, I'm glad you're not in pain anymore, but please try and get some more sleep"

"Yeah, I will, after I've eaten, sorry I woke you, go back to bed"

"I think I'll wait until you're settled again" He said, getting the butter out the fridge and beginning to butter my just popped toast,

"I can do that you know"

"I know" Noah had me back on the sofa; I patted the seat and made him sit next to me. As I ate my toast, we chatted quietly. We chatted and chatted, until both of us slumped together and drifted off to sleep.

"Now, this is definitely a picture for the family scrap book" Arii whispered as her, Tayte and Angelo were stood looking at us led asleep together on the sofa. I opened my eyes slowly,

"You better not have taken a picture" I muttered, shaking Noah he opened his eyes rubbing them,

"Morning" He grinned, I smiled,

"I guessed you'd gone to see Keane when I woke and found you not in bed next to me" Angelo said, "I'll go do everyone breakfast" He then said leaving the room,

"Love you Keane" Noah said and then leapt up and ran after Angelo, Tayte and Arii plonked themselves next to me,

"How you feeling?"

"Rested up, I'm good"

"I booked the tickets, the flight is at 8.45pm, thought it would be better that we all just sleep for the flight and travel overnight, rather than in the day. We land back in London at 7.30am" Arii told me,

"How much was it?"

"£9,500, business class" I nodded, "I used the card, Angelo and Noah when you were out yesterday put some of the money in the bank and then got debit type cards for the different countries that we're going to"

"Okay that's good, but we're going to need a car to get us around once we land in England"

"I'm sure we can arrange something, get like a hire car that we can pick up from the airport" Tayte said,

"Yeah, I'll look into it" I answered,

"So besides packing, is there anything else we're doing today?"

"No, why?" I asked, she looked at Tayte,

"She wants to go and say goodbye to her friends"

"The friends who you got drunk with" I said, looking at her, she nodded "How long and where?" her eyes lit up,
