I woke up later that day to a quiet room. I felt bad that I snapped like that because I never have yelled at Niall like that. That was one of those instincts that I had only because I wanted everyone to feel as bad as I did then but now I felt horrible. I got out of bed and slipped on some shoes. I guess right now would be as good time as any to go and apologize starting with the boys and girls then I’ll get to Niall. I grabbed my phone off the stand beside the door before I walked out of the room.

My first stop is Harry and Hailey then I’ll move down until I get to Niall. I know it’s weird to apologize last to him since he’s the one I should apologize to first but I’m really nervous. My hands were shaking as I hesitantly knocked on their door. There was a little bit of noise coming from the other side of the door. After another few minutes of standing at the door it opened and revealed Harry and Louis. Their smiles were wide compared to my weak one.

“Well don’t just stand there come on in.” Harry said as he grabbed my arm and dragged me into the living area. Louis was snickering behind us.

I expected it just to be Harry and Hailey to be in here but was surprised when I found everyone, except Paul and Niall, sprawled out around the spacious room. What surprised me even more was the fact that all of them had the same smirk upon their faces. I waved shyly at everyone as Louis and Harry sat down beside Eleanor and Hailey.

The others were giving me glances as I still stood in the middle of the archway; awkwardly. My nerves kicked back in again as I thought back to why I was here; to apologize. I’ve never been good at apologizing so that’s why I get so nervous. I think Louis knew why I was here because he gave me a reassuring smile, that’s really what gave me enough courage to say what I had too.

“Okay so, first off I just want to apologize to you all for being a complete bitch this morning. You all are the best friends I could ever ask for and I really shouldn’t have blamed it on you or Niall when in reality it was my fault for forgetting to charge my phone.” I rushed out. My face fell to the ground as I played with the bottom of my shirt. I found my shoes interesting as I waited for their answer

“Hey, we forgive you, even if you did charge your phone we shouldn’t have ignored you yesterday.” Liam said. I raised my head and thanked them. They weren’t mad at me so now I only have one more person to apologize to Niall. That’s what was really making me nervous; this one was a lot easier than the one that I just had to do.

“Where’s Niall, I need to apologize to him next.” I asked no one unparticular.  There were a lot of glances around the room until Zayn spoke up.

“Him and Paul went to get some food and then Paul was taking him somewhere.” I nodded my head and looked around the room. Everyone was pretty much trying to do something and nothing was working, either someone was on their phone’s or they were just staring off into space. It made for an awkward silence.

“So um, have you girl’s got your dresses yet?”  I looked to the four other girls in the room. A smile appeared on their faces as they figured this was a perfect time for shopping.

“Nope, so that means we get to go shopping!” Eleanor squealed in delight.  I breathed a sigh of relief as everything pretty much went back to normal.  The boys groaned as the girls all went to get changed. Hailey ran to her room and us other girls went to our own room.

I got dressed quickly and was able to straighten my hair and put some make-up on in under fifteen minutes. I was surprised by the time but I was in a rush to go shopping again; well not shopping but getting to hang out with my best friends. I grabbed a pair of shoes and slipped them on before I grabbed my phone and purse off the stand.
