Train trip

Cassie’s POV

When I woke up, Zayn had one hand around my waist, and the other resting on my back. “Good morning.” He smiled at me. I rested my head back down on his chest and somebody knocked on my door.

“We’re catching a train in two and a half hours. So get up!” Sarah called and walked off.

“Come on. Time to get up.” Zayn pushed me off him and went into the bathroom.

Today, London. Tomorrow, the world. I got up and went out to the kitchen. “What’s cooking?” I asked, sniffing the air.

“Pancakes.” Sarah replied, as she flipped four of them over. “They’re in the oven if you want some.” I opened it up and was greeted with a wave of heat. I pulled out the plate and took it to the table.

Liam, Harry and Niall, were already seated. I slid into my seat and started eating.

“What were you doing last night?” Harry asked as he grabbed another pancake.

“Huh?” I asked, confused.

“You know, somebody called somebody an idiot and then there was lots of yelling and door slamming.” He explained.

“What are you talking about?” Now I was even more confused.

“Oh, no. That was me.” Sarah stated as she sat down next to me, grabbing a pancake. “I fell out of bed, sorry if it woke you.”

He shrugged. “Never mind. Why isn’t everybody else up yet?” He asked.

“Because we’re all tired and not used to the time lapse thing yet.” I explained.

“Jet lag?” Sarah suggested.

“Whatever.” I rolled my eyes at her and grabbed another pancake.

“I’m gonna go get the others up now.” Sarah got up and went down the hallway. Then there was laughing. Lots of laughing.

I turned around and saw Sarah and Stef coming down the hallway, Stef, beet red went straight into the bathroom. One hand was on her shoulder as she used her free hand to open and close the door.

“What was that all about?” I asked as Sarah came back and sat down, still laughing.

“I’m sure that Stef will tell you when she comes out.” Sarah laughed. I looked really confused then.

“Why can’t you just tell me?” I asked.

“Because I don’t think I needed to know...that, let alone have to tell you what it was.” Sarah explained. I nodded slowly.

Stef’s POV

I got up and headed out the door. Sarah met me in the hall way and she immediately began to gesture to the right side of my face. “Umm...Stef, you uh...you’ve got...uh.” She tried to explain.

“Is there something on my face?” I asked and started rubbing my face. Then she started laughing. “What, is it still there?”

She shook her head and continued to laugh. “You uh...you’ve got a love bite.” She laughed.

“A what?” I asked, confused.

“A love bite.” Still she gestured to the lower right side of my face.

“A what?” I asked, again.

“Stef, you’ve got a frikken hickey on your shoulder.” She continued to laugh as I felt myself turn red. I pushed past her into the bathroom. I barely noticed the majority of them sitting at the table.
