     Emilia is awoken by the loud, annoying One Direction ringtone that is set to sound whenever Kimi calls her. She reaches for her phone and lets out a groan when she realizes it is just out of her reach. The girl sits up in the bed and grabs the phone, finally answering and silencing Louis Tomlinson's yelling.

     "I swear this better be important because you just woke me up, Andrea," the blonde mutters while rubbing the sleep out of her eyes.

     "I mean I can let you starve next time."

     At the idea of food, Emilia's stomach grumbles, "Don't be dramatic, what are you getting?"

     "Ollie wants sushi, but I want pasta, you are the deciding vote," Kimi tells her.

     "Pick sushi please, I'm craving sushi so bad right now," Ollie says.

     "Honestly, I could go for some pasta. I'm sorry Ollie, how about sushi tomorrow?" the girl asks guiltily.

     "Ah a shame, Oliver. We have beat your fishy proposition," Kimi tells the boy while laughing.

     "Do you want your usual order, sorella?"

     "Yes please, Kimi," Emilia answers.

     She hears some mumbling and shuffling over the phone before she receives a Facetime call from the boy, "Hello, Ollie," the blonde says with a smile once the call loads in.

     The brunette boy on the screen let out a chuckle, "Hi, Milia."

     The blonde girl and brunette boy stare at each other for a minute with soft looks in their eyes before the girl jumps back into the conversation, "What are the plans for tomorrow?"

     Ollie looks towards Kimi who is using his phone to order the food, "It's our only free day before the weekend actually picks up. I think we were going to do some sightseeing," the boy whispers trying not to disturb Kimi.

     "These plans include me, right?"

     Ollie sends the girl another cheesy grin, "Don't be silly, of course, they include you, Milia. I mean Kimi wouldn't stop talking about you coming to visit, I think the whole paddock might know Emilia Easton is coming to visit."

     "Oh god, I can just imagine him yapping up a storm," Emilia giggles, picturing the scene.

     The camera quickly changes to capture Kimi's face instead of Ollie's, "We'll be back at the hotel in 40 minutes, we're going to eat in your room by the way. Love you bye," the boy quickly ends the call before the girl can even question what he said.

     Forty minutes isn't a whole lot of time, but Emilia decides to use it to freshen up as she was still dressed in the same attire from this morning. Quickly gathering a new outfit consisting of a pair of soft shorts and a hoodie that she is pretty sure belongs to her best friend, Jules, from the last time she visited and her toiletries, the blonde makes her way toward the room's bathroom for a quick shower.

     Turning on the shower and setting the water to the hottest possible temperature, Emilia stands by waiting for the shower to heat up, and glances towards the mirror while thinking about her couple hours in Bahrain so far. She landed, met back up with her brother, met possibly the cutest boy she's ever seen, took a much needed nap, and now she's having dinner delivered by her friends for a chill night in. Bahrain seems to have a lot of things to offer Emilia.
