"So, I'm gonna drop you off at the boys' house soon enough, okay?" Lou says, shaking me softly in my bed.

"Why?" I pout. "So comfy..." I scrunch Pikachu to my chest.

"You've gotta set up the bus. So clothing, suitcase and others. Just grab clothes for tonight and tomorrow and anything you need. Im sure you can put it in your bag." She says smiling. I hear her jingle her cars keys at me so I pull myself out of bed.

I decide to shower seeing that I haven't in a while and my hair isn't looking so great. I turn on my radio just loud enough I can hear it over the sound of my running water. I jump in and quickly wash my body. I let the suds sit in my hair.

When washing out my hair, I see the bottom of the tub fill with pink, purple and blue. I could be an ice princess. 

When I jump out, I put no effort into my clothing. I put on dance sweat pants with the batman logo covering it and just a black crop top that hugs nicely. When I get out I hear Lou say something along the lines of "oooh" and "aaah". I just smile.

"Ready to go?" She says.

"Almost. Just wanna blow dry my hair." I say, combing it through with my fingers. I head to the washroom to do so.

It takes long enough, but I manage to dry most of my hair. It leaves my hair soft but still a tad wavy. Beach waves.

I just throw a few items of clothing into my school bag, stuffing it in. I could take out my laptop and notepad but I might need it. You never know.

"Let's go." Lou says, smiling and holding the door open for me. 

We quickly head to the car and I assume my seat as usual. 

I know the route to their house a tad too well by now so now I just look at the houses that surround it, appreciating the neighborhood. 

Lou quickly pulls up to the house and ignoring the cue Lou gives me to get out, I just sit with my giant Pikachu to my chest.

"Go on, Ryan. You can always text me." She says smiling. 

"Urrrgh!" I sigh. "Okay. I'll call you when I'm done." I hop out and rush to the trunk to grab my things.

Walking up the driveway isn't easy with a giant Pikachu and a few suitcases. But it could be worst. 

Wait, no,

Bunking with the boys, boo. 

I knock at the door a few times until Calum comes runs up, opening the door. He smiles and laughs, pointing at my pikachu.

"Ain't you ever seen one before, boy?" I say, kissing pikachu's head.

"Of course I have! He's just so fluffy!" He says smiling and petting him

"Hey!" Michael shouts as he slowly comes into the entrance way. "Let's go alreaddyyyy." He shouts for Liz.

I see Liz come in from the other room, hassling Luke. She smiles and I offer her a hug.

"How are you today?" I say sweetly, I hear all the other boys sigh.

"I'm wonderful." She says, pulling away and looking at then other boys. "Are you ready to go?" She smiles and heads towards the car.

"I'm excited!" All the boys cheer, laughing. They know as well how to act around Liz. Its as thought they understand my lie in personality.

I hop in the the back spot, sitting against the window. Beside me, Ashton and Calum. I put in both my headphones and silently jam out to my music. I don't wanna be a part of their nonsenseless conversation.
