Their day off

Again?

Anna's POV

Since I kissed Calum we have grown closer. We have been spending a lot of time together alone and also with the rest of the guys. My friends Allie and Kaybre got to meet the boys and they reacted just like Chloee. They automatically clicked with the guys and we have all been hanging out for the past few days. This morning I woke up in a hotel room. I stood up and everything was dark I couldn't remember how I got here and my head began to pound.

I walked around and realized it wasn't a hotel room, it was Allie's apartment. I went in the bathroom and washed my face. I looked in the mirror and I was wearing clothes that didn't belong to me and there was a bruise on my cheek. Confused, I went to the kitchen and found Allie sitting at the table on her phone. When I walked in she looked up and smiled, "Hey," she said. "You're awake!" I grabbed a water bottle from the refrigerator and sat down across from her. "Um. Yeah. Why am I here?" She laughed and began to explain last night events, starting when we went to a club called Mckenzie's and ending when I drank to much and then threw up everywhere. "I really did that?" I laughed surprised by my own actions but not really worried because it's happened before. "Yeah you did. It was gross. Luckily it was only you, me and Chloee. If the guys were there it would've been weird." I suddenly felt a wave of relief wash over me and I felt my self relax a little more. I took a sip of my water and the cool liquid felt amazing on my dry tongue. Allie and I didn't do anything productive all day. We just sat around watching Netflix and eating junk food. Around four my phone lit up and began to buzz. I looked down at my screen and noticed I had two missed calls and four texts from Kaybre. Confused, I called her back.

"Hello," her voice was frantic and she talked loudly.
"Hey. What's going on?" In the background I could hear music. The sound of drums being violently beaten filled the room and drowned out Kaybre's voice. "What did you just say? I can't hear you." I was yelling now and my head began to throb a little. In the distance I could hear Kaybre scream,"Shut up, would you? I'm on THE PHONE!" The music suddenly died down and all was silent until Kaybre spoke into the phone again.
"Sorry. Im with the guys and they are messing around." She let out a sigh and there was faint laughter in the background. "So why did you call me?"
"Well I can't handle them on my own and Chloee took my car for the day. Either come hang out with us or come pick me up. I can't do this anymore." I laughed and shook my head even though she couldn't see me. "Ok. I'm on my way we will be there in 20 minutes. And there not that bad. You get used to it after a while. Bye!" She began to say something and the music resumed as I was ending the call.

"Come on, let's go!" I grabbed Allies car keys and began to walk out the door. Outside she stopped me,"Oh no. You're not driving. I'm not planning on dying today." I rolled my eyes and tossed her the keys because ironically I wasn't planning on dying anytime soon either. We drove in silence until we got to Kaybre's house and could hear music from inside. "Oh God." I was already walking towards the door and Allie was just standing back shaking her head laughing. "I feel bad for her." I opened the door slowly, bracing myself for what was about to happen. "Hello?" I shouted, it was suddenly quiet. A little too quite. I walked through the house calling out for someone. "Hello? Hello. Kaybre? Ashton? Calum? Hel-" I was suddenly cut off when something hit me in the forehead. "Ow." I looked at my feet and saw an orange Nerf bullet. I looked around and saw a gun on the couch and got ready for another attack. I saw Luke across the room hiding behind a large houseplant. I shot him twice in the leg and he fell to the ground pretending he was injured. I walked over to him, grabbed his gun and extra bullets and took off to the next room looking for my next target. After about two hours of having a Nerf war everyone was "dead". The official winner was Ashton even though he hid the whole time. After our "war" we all met in the living room. 

"What's going on?" I was sitting on a really comfortable couch and looked around at the guys waiting for a response. There was a tension between everyone that hadn't been present in the past. Kaybre finally spoke up,"I have no idea. They just showed up and started listening to music then it got ugly. They found our Nerf guns and started shooting each other." The guys were all silent looking at the floor. Michael was tapping his fingers to a nonexistent beat. "Hey guys what wrong?" I could hear the concern in my voice. Luke looked up, meeting my eyes for the first time tonight. "Nothing. We are all just really tired, we stayed up until like 4am Skyping the guys we were going to record with this week." The other guys nodded but didn't look up. "Are you sure that's all?" Luke looked at Calum before answering, "Yeah. I'm sure." "Ok."

A few hours, and a lot of music and random conversation later we were all starving, around 7:30pm and we all decided to order a large pizza. It was delicious! We we were all full and about an hour later Kaybre fell asleep on the couch. The guys decided they should leave and so did Allie and I.

It's been two days and I haven't been talking to any of the guys. On Monday morning I got a text.
Calum: Anna? I need to talk to you.
