ZAYN:

"I'm just ready to sleep," Lauren breathed when we got into our flat. I placed her duffel bag on the floor, and she layed her rose on the dresser beside the picture of the two of us. She couldn't sleep, this surprise needed to happen. Lauren kicked off her flip flops and layed back on the bed. The entire ride to our flat she was resting her head on my shoulder and dozing in and out of sleep. "You can't sleep. There's so much to do." I said. Lauren hugged one of my pillows, and sighed.

"Can't we just have nap time?" She patted the spot beside her, which is where I always slept. "Come on, just a two hour nap." She pouted, I looked away because I always gave into her pout. "Lauren." I sternly said. She suddenly closed her eyes, and acted as though she was fast asleep, even making faulty snoring sound effects.

I let her go for a few seconds and stepped into the hall. I made my way over to Harry's room. He looked up at me, "Hey there mate, everything all ready?" He reached for the black blindfold he had in his possession that I didn't question. "She wants to take a two hour nap." I said. Harry's eyebrows lifted.

"A two hour nap? Didn't you call for the car to get here in a few minutes?" I nodded, and looked down at the watch slung around my wrist. "It should be here any minute now, and I have to get to there to make sure Niall, Louis and Liam got the right things." I said. Harry nodded, and put his hands on his waist.

"Right, so should I just go and get her?" I nodded, and grabbed the keys to the truck from Harry's bedside. I patted his back for reassurance. "That would be very helpful mate, thank you." I rushed out of the door, hoping Harry was able to get Lauren.

LAUREN:

"Wake up!" I knew it was Harry who was jumping on the bed. I let out a groan and opened my eyes. He had a grin on his face and he was dangling a thick black fabric from his right hand. "What the hell are you doing?" I sat up, slightly startled and unaware of what is going on.

"I'm taking you somewhere and you can't know." The door was pushed open wider and in walked Camila and Normani. "Where is everyone going?" Normani asked.

"What do you mean? Where's Zayn?" I asked.

"He stepped out for a minute." Harry nonchalantly said.

I looked at Camila and pointed an accusing finger. "I thought you said no surprises!" She held her hands up. "I swear I have no idea what's going on right now." The tone in her voice was believable. Camila looked at Harry now, and pointed an accusing finger. "You're doing surprises without me now?" Harry nodded.

"Everyones in on it, except of course you guys." Harry smirked. Camila gasped, offended. There was a beep that sounded like it was coming from out front. "Lauren, I need to blindfold you." Harry said approaching me with the blindfold. I swatted his hand away, like disciplining a child who was reaching for a cookie before dinner. "I am not being blindfolded." I declared.

"It's for Zayn, do it for Zayn." I let out a loud sigh. What the hell.

"Hurry before I change my mind." He placed the blindfold over my eyes and everything turned pitch black. "No funny buisness." I warned. Harry laughed.

"Relax Lauren there is nothing to worry about."

"Can Mani and I come?!" Camila asked anxiously. Again, Harry laughed, standing me up on my feet. I felt around with my foot and was able to slip on my sandals. Harry's hands were on my shoulders ready to lead me. "No, but you can make sure no one breaks in. You know crazed fans, money hungry paparazzi... Taylor Swift."

"You're leaving that buisness up to us?!" Normani gasped. There was another beep.

"No time for chatter, I have something to attend to but I will see you ladies shortly." Harry said.
