"Do I really have to do this?" I sighed as I poured myself a cup of coffee and talked mindlessly into my MacBook which was sat nicely on top of Matty's marble counters.

"You've been home for a week now and all you've done is sit at home on the couch watching Netflix with Isis and drinking wine" Matty laughed, he sat shirtless on his bed back on the tour bus with one leg up and one folded underneath him. "Plus come festival season these girls will be your family too"

"It feels forced" I frowned into my mug.

He laughed nodding his head. "Only on your end love, they've been dying to meet you for the longest time"

"That makes me look awful" I gasped hiding my face in shame. "Ugh I really have to do this don't I?"

"You would look worse if you didn't" he nodded then smiled. "I miss you, how was your morning?"

I sighed leaning in front of the camera. "Well today was my first morning of yoga"

"Exciting" he commented.

I shrugged. "Doctor says it's supposed to relive stress but nothing is more stressful than forcing myself to wake up at the ass crack of dawn"

"Well that's because you're not really a morning person but we all appreciate the effort" He cheesed then checked his phone. "Times up my love"

"No way! We've talked for like five minutes" I objected, really our call had been an hour long but that was still not enough.

"Sorry my love, Jamie has us on this strict schedule and he's only given you an hour of my time" he lightly laughed. "Have a good day, please be open minded"

"Anything for you" I forcefully smiled then sighed. "Miss you"

"More and more each day" he sang softly then laughed again. "I love you Abigail"

"Likewise" I winked then hung up the call just as my hungover friend came down the stairs in just her panties and a shirt. "You're not dressed!"

"For?" She questioned making a beeline for the coffee pot.

"Today?" I questioned but the look on her face said it all. "Today when we go hang out with the cool girls"

Once it clicked she laughed to herself. "That's today?"

"In two hours" I nodded.

She rolled her eyes. "Won't it be weird?" 

"Oh it'll be totally fucking weird" I assured her.

Now if your confused let me catch you up.

For some time now the other girlfriends have been trying to reach out to me but with me being on tour with the guys and dealing with own shit I just haven't reached back out to them. It's nothing against them. It kinda is actually.

Basically Adam and George's respective girlfriends have been dying to meet me. The problem is they've all known each other for some time now so they all hang out all the time and do things all the time and they're all just really close.

Clearly that leaves me out.

And obviously that's all my doing however now that they've got me trapped in this city for a whole month they are insisting we go and do girl things. Whatever that means. Normally I would come up with a great excuse because that's just who I am but now Matty and Jamie are involved so it's not involuntary anymore.
