-The day of the trip-

- Ringgggg-
Goes my phone. I groan and search for it in the dark.

In my horrible morning voice I answer it seeing its a call from Niall.

"Hello-" I say.

"ALEXIS WAKE YOUR ARSE UP, YOU ARE ALREADY LATE, WE ARE BOARDING THE FLIGHT, AND YOU'RE SLEEPING, HOW COULD YOU NOT WAKE U-" he screamt on the phone.

I sat up straight, my sleep disappeared in seconds hearing that.
"Wait whaaaat? Oh god don't tell me I overslept. Fu-" I was about to curse, when I heard him laugh hard.

"Why are you laughing?" I asked.

"Because you fell for it, you actually believed you were late." He said continuing his laughter.

"I HATE YOU SO MUCH HORAN!" I said, pouting.

"Haha, I love you too," he said.

That sent some weird waves of emotions inside me. Oh wait, he loves me as his bestfriend.

"No. Anyway what time is it?" I ask yawning.

"Its, 5am. You have half an hour to get ready." He said.

"Yeah, What time is our flight again?" I asked, not being able to recollect anything.

"8. But we have to be there by 7. So get ready soon okay," He said.

"Hm, bye. See you in a bit." I said before hanging up.

I stretched a bit before getting out of the bed. I walked over to my closet, grabbed a towel and went in for a good hot shower.

After the shower, got ready, and silently grabbed my bags and went downstairs.

Dad was sipping on his coffee.
"You're ready? All set to go uh?" Dad asked smiling widely.

I just nodded. Of course I was still mad at them.

"Let me drop you off," dad said.

"No, I'll manage." I said.

"Honey, please, let me drop you off to the Airport." He inisted.

"Fine." I said crossing my arms over my chest.

Dad got up, and grabbed his keys, Mom came out of the kitchen and kissed my cheek, while hugging me tightly.

"Take care okay,and be safe, text me whenever you can-" she said.

"Mom," I said, she was getting teary.

"Sorry, sorry, I'm just worried." She said.

"I'll be fine. I have Natalie and Niall, don't worry." I smiled and hugged her.

Dad honked, so I kissed her cheek and made my way to the car.

Mom sat in the front, and I took the back seat.
