Kelli's POV

"Attention passengers: we are now making our descent. Please fasten your seat belts."

A loud voice jerks me out of my slumber.

That was a shorter flight than I expected it to be.

As I buckle down my seat belt, I glance up at a snoring Harry.

His man bun didnt last very long because a few of his curls have slipped out and are now draping over his face.

He kept his sunglasses on, barely, and leaned the seat back slightly with his arm above his head.

He looked so peaceful that I didn't want to wake him, with his mouth slightly agape and his eyebrows furrowed in concentration, like he's trying to make sense of a dream he's having.

"Harry" I whisper lightly shaking him, he didn't even flinch.

"Harry!" I say loudly into his ear, causing him to stir lightly.

He slowly sits up, taking off his sunglasses and rubbing his eyes.

"What time is it?" He says raspily, checking his watch.

Oh my gosh, his sleepy voice. Uggghh...

"It's 7:15, we should be at the hotel by 7:30 if we can get out of the airport fast enough." He continues, stretching his arms out slightly.

After a hectic bustle through the airport, we are finally at the hotel.

I didn't spot paparazzi or fans there so our arrival went unnoticed. Thank god.

Maddie is insisting that as soon as the boys leave, we go shopping. I'm not objecting considering that we don't have anything better to do.

"What floor are we on?" I ask lugging my suitcase into the lobby.

Holy shit this place must cost a fortune...

Everything looks like it's made of gold. The furniture alone is probably worth more than us girls' college funds combined.

I decide that the best thing to do is to not touch anything, because if I break something I'll probably still be paying it off till I'm thirty.

"The top level of course. We get each get our own suites." Niall says casually, draping his arm over Maddie's shoulder.

"How much does this place cost?" I ask Harry quietly, having to stand on my tip toes to reach his ear.

"It's none of your concern, love. Management pays for everything anyway." He shrugs off the question.

After receiving our room keys, we slide into the elevator, dragging our luggage behind us.

"I can't wait to collapse on a bed and sleep." I hear Rose grumble, while Maddie just sighs.

"You are coming shopping with us, Rosie." She says sternly, while Rose just groans, "No buts." She quickly adds on, leaning into Niall.

A 'ding' signals that we have arrived on our floor.

We each go into our separate rooms, I'm bunking with Harry and Liam with Rose, and, of course, Niall with Maddie.

"Meet me in the lobby in 10 minutes," Maddie shouts to us before slamming the door shut to her room.

"She was talking to us wasn't she Kelli?" Rose says exasperated.
