I left Kayla's at about 10 o'clock this morning. As soon as I got up, she asked me when I was going dress shopping.

"Kayla! Seriously?" I scold her. 

"What?" She asks me, genuinely confused.

"Enough with the wedding stuff!"

"Sorry. I was just curious."

"well, it will probably be a little while before I start looking for one."

After I left, I got  stuck in the terrible LA traffic. 

"Hey, wassup?" Maverick asks me as I reach the second floor with my bag from KAyla's.

"Just got back from my friend's house." I smile.

"Oh, that's cool. Hey, how was Florida by the way?" She smiles as she closes her door behind her.

"It was awesome!" I say excited.

"Well, you're gonna have to tell me all about it. I gotta head to work. Let's talk later?" 

"Yeah, Niall and I are planning a Skype call anyway, so I should probably go do that." I smile as we part ways.

I walk in to my apartment to see the mess that I have been avoiding. I look at the time and see that it's 12:47. Niall and I planned our Skype call for one. So I do have a bit of time to clean up before that. I start in the kitchen, doing the dishes that have been sitting there for a couple days. I hate doing dishes that are days old, cause they get food stuck on them. So right now, I hate myself for that.

I get the dishes about halfway done, when the Skype ringtone comes through the speakers of my laptops. I quickly dry my hands then run into my bedroom and answer it.

"Hey." I smile. I watch Niall's blank face while I wait for the computer to speed up.

After I hear my voice say "Hey" through his computer, he smiles back and says: "Hey, I miss you."

"I  miss you too." He says as the computer starts giving feedback. I turn the sound down, protecting my ears. I pull my phone out and text him, since obviously, Skype is not going to work.

Since this obviously isn't going to work, maybe we should just talk on the phone.

After about five minutes, Niall looks down and then I see his phone in his hand.

Yeah, good idea.

I close my laptop, then went to my contacts and clicked on Niall.

"Hey"

"Hey"

"How are you?" He asks me.

"Exhausted."

"Why? What's wrong?"

"My apartment's a mess, Kayla's more excited about this wedding than I am, and now when you're not here, I odn't know what to do with myself."

"Wait? You're not excited about the wedding?" He asks sounding upset.

"No, I'm ecstatic! It's just that Kayla's trying to make me plan everything. I just don't want to plan anything until you get back."

"Oh, well as soon as I get back in a couple days, we can start planning some stuff." I forgot he's getting back that soon. I always lose track of when he is coming home because he's always gone for so long.

"When are you guys getting in?"

"Around 8 AM."

"Ok, I'll be there" I smile.

"Alright, well I gotta go get ready for the show. See ya Thursday."

"Ok. I love you. Have fun!"

"I love you too!"

He hangs up and I put my phone on the bedside table.  

I turn my iPod onto 'Hell Yeah' by Midnight Red and finish doing the dishes. After that, I go into the living room and declutter that. I'll probably end up doing all the vacuuming tomorrow. I move to the bathroom, then my bedroom.

After I'm finally done with at least getting the apartment halfway decent, I head in my room and take a nap.

When I wake up from my nap, my clock says that it's 4:30, which means I slept for two and a half hours.

 I get up and have a quick dinner then sit on the couch ad watch some youtube. The rest of the day I spend on my phone, interacting with a lot of fans on twitter. I even did a twitcam, which I haven't done for a while.

In the middle of my twitcam, my dad called me, so I had to end the twitcam and answer the phone. 

"Hello?"

"Hey sweetheart!"

"Hey daddy!"

"How have you been?"

"I've been good, feeling pretty bored right now."

"Yeah, so you're mom told me that Niall proposed."

"Yeah, I'm s sorry! I have been meaning to call you, but I kept forgetting!"

"That's just fine! I'm just so happy for you! Have you started planning at all?"

"No, Niall had to go right back on tour. Actually, we went to Disney World, but we wanted to have fun then, not start planning yet."

"Really? Did you have fun?"

"Yes! We spent like a whole day at the pool. And we met some new friends. They're really... um... different. But they're really fun too."

"What do you mean different?"

"It's kinda hard to explain over the phone." I chuckle.

"Alright, well I better let you go, Mitchell's bugging me about something. Probably wants some money or something."

"Alright dad, tell Mitch I said hi. Hope to see both of you at the wedding!"

"Alright hun, I love you."

"Love you too daddy." I smile.

"Call me soon."

"Ok daddy, I will." I smile, then hang up the phone.

A/N

Hey guys! It's been so long and I'm so sorry! It's been almost a month since I updated last! Sorry that the chapter's so short too! I have really bad writer's block. This is mostly a filler chapter. I'm not exactly sure when there will be another big update. In fact, I'm not sure when there will be another update. It might be like, this fall or something. I haven't had much time to update lately, so that's why this is so short, and why I haven't updated recently.

Love y'all!
