i feel my body being shaken as i roll to the other side of my bed and slip my hand under the pillow, feeling the cold comfortable fabric. my body keeps being shaken and i slowly open my eyes to see who's there, coming face to face with someone's crotch.

"the fuck?" i open my eyes widely, trailing it up to see harry.

"good morning, scarlette," he shakes his head.

"give me ten more minutes," i groan.

"i have. infact, i have given you an extra hour," harry explains calmly.

"what?" i squint my eyes at him. "what time is it?"

"nine," he sighs. "go wash up, scarlette. i can still smell yesterday's champagne." he rolls his eyes at me as i sit up straight on my bed.

"you didn't wake me up?" i tilt my head.

"what is it with you and twenty questions everytime i come to pick you up?" he asks back.

"did you wake up on the wrong side of your king-sized comfortable bed?" i gibe.

"no, scarlette. infact, it was good. i got chicks all over the spot." he looks at me with daring eyes.

"shut up," i scoff. harry offers me a cup of coffee. i take it from his hand and sip it afterwards. "thank you, i really need one."

"what time did you go to sleep last night?" he arcs an eyebrow.

"four? i couldn't sleep." i sigh.

"why?"

"i just can't sometimes," i shrugg while taking another sip from the coffee. harry just nods at me, slipping his hand to his pocket.

"you should have just called me, scarlette."

"i'm pretty sure intterupting your sleep would mean the last day of my life," i nodd slowly at him.

"just get ready," harry snaps. i roll my eyes at him and go to the bathroom.

niall and harry wants me to tell the workers all the directions for christmas decoration knowing tomorrow is the beginning of december. they want this christmas to be diffrent from last year. their last year's theme was iceland so the whole hotel was clad with white and silver colors. this christmas, they want it to be red, green, and gold so the hotel could light up the town. since i'm not coming with niall to new york tomorrow, i must watch them out and finish theo's birthday list. i just knew that the theme will be disney and i think that's why the very bottom list wants me to find a jack sparrow costume.

before doing all those things, i remember i have to attend a meeting this afternoon with niall for his new branch after the lunch, which means his bestfriends will come. it should've been next week but niall advances the date because he got all the things he need earlier; files, an architect, etc. i make my way to the meeting room so i can set the OHP ready and order eight glasses of water to be served.

an hour into the meeting, everyone is brainstorming about how the building must look like and the structure of everything they will have inside the building so they can give the architect some kind of a picture. turns out, it will not be like any other mall, they've changed the whole idea into something a lot more bigger. i, on the other hand, just try to keep up with their conversations so i can write them down for niall.

"millions were spent for education, but none of us can even think about how the building should look like!" louis throws his arms in the air.

"come on, zayn. you're the artsy one in here," niall sighs, "think!"

"you all want too much. why don't we just give it all to the architect?" zayn starts to loosen up his tie.

"i can't draw it without any picture from the all of you," the architect, mr. doom says. "i mean, you all want it to be the center of this town." he shrugs. "let's recap, shall we?" they all nodd. "just relax yourselves."
