"Celestia?" I heard Kate say from beside me, as I mumbled a 'hmm' in response, my eyes still closed.

"aren't you supposed to be waiting for Calum at the airport?" wait, what?

I shot my eyes open as I suddenly sat up from my bed, giving Kate a half asleep look. shit, I forgot.

Olivia is gonna fùcking kill me. not just Olivia but also Matt.

"what time is it?" I ask, as she looks down on her phone to check the time. "about...eight thirty." she replies. shoot, they arrive at nine, which means I have about twenty minutes left to get ready. plus traffic.

I swear, I seriously need to be more punctual. "Could you call Sam to wait outside for me please? I need to get ready." I said, quickly getting out of bed but my foot got tangled in the sheets, causing me to land on my face, my body in an awkward position as I heard Kate burst into laughter as I groaned in pain. This one's gonna leave a bruise.

"fuck, my fucking face, fuuuck."

"You swear too much." Kate comments, as she walks towards me, helping me up.

"I don't give a fuck." I said, letting out a light and painful laugh.

The minute I stood up, pain shot through my ankle making me groan in pain again and fall back down again, Kate bursted into laughter again.

"I don't have time for this shit, Kate, oh my god." I whined, limping towards my bathroom as I quickly brushed my teeth and washed my face, making myself look decent enough as I applied some chapstick before lightly pinching my cheeks to give it some color, applying a little bit of make up before running towards my suitcase.

I was pretty much rummaging through my clothes but time was ticking so I had no choice  but to hold up a Hello Kitty sweatpants and a baggy tshirt making me scrunch my face up. fuck, I don't have enough time to dress properly.

"do I look okay?" I ask Kate as she took in my appearance, furrowing her eyebrows as she scrunched up her nose, stifling a laugh.

"oh man, you look fine."

"be honest, Kate! I don't want the paparazzi's to take disgusting pictures of me, they might write it in an article saying I ditched my modeling career to become a hobo!" I cried out, Kate seemed to find my whining entertaining since she had a big grin on her face as she just shrugged and said, "you look fine, Les. go pick up your man." this made me grab my trench coat and bolt out of the hotel room.

damn it, elevators.

"hello, dear." an old lady says, shooting me a warm smile as I returned it with a worried one. I'm sure Calum's looking for me at the airport now.

"you look familiar." she comments, before turning to face me as she leaned in to take a closer look causing me to lean back a little.

"are you that model who's been blowing up the newspapers with that good looking guy?" she asks, as I just nodded.

"oh dear, you better keep that man candy close to you. I might snatch him out of your hands." even older women finds Calum hot and attractive, not surprised.

"oh, I will." I joker, letting out a light laugh.

As soon as I heard the 'ding' from the elevator, I quickly ran towards the glass doors, pushing it open before finding the car door already open for me as the usual blinding lights of cameras came in sight, making it hard for me to walk towards the car but I still managed to get in the car.

"is there like a shortest route to the airport?" I ask, as I saw Sam purse his lips as he said, "yes, but traffic."

"It's okay, just take that way." I say, running my hand down my face.

I turned on my phone to check the time to see that it was already nine ten, as I felt my heart race at the thought of Matt and Olivia being so disapponted in me just cause I overslept. They should've picked someone more punctual than me!

"Thanks, Dave I owe you one." I said, patting Dave on the shoulder as I heard him sigh and say "you're welcome" as I shot him a smile and rushed out of the car when I caught bodyguards in sight.

I ran towards the entrance of the airport, already seeing people form a circle around four tall boys whom I'm very familiar of, until I caught the dark haired boy with the usual grumpy look on his face with a phone pressed to his ear until I felt my phone vibrate in my hand indicating that Calum was already looking for me as I looked down to see twelve missed calls from him.

I briskly walked towards them Calum probably noticed me from the corner of his eye since his head turned towards me. he did not look happy at all.

"where the hell have you been?" he whispers, although he was angry, he had a smile on his face since he didn't want people to know that he was angry at me as he pulls me into a tight hug, a very tight one might I add, causing me to whimper and lightly pushed him off of me. Jesus, he always acts like he's on his man period.

"Awe, you guys look so cute!" a fan comments from beside me, snapping pictures as I just smiled at her and looked up at Calum to see his reaction.

he was also smiling but his smile dropped as he looked down at me, it's obvious that he wanted to roll his eyes but he stopped himself from doing it so his fans won't suspect a thing.

he then connects his hand with mine as he eyed me up and down, catching a glimpse of the pink hello kitty sweatpants before giving me a look and said, "Jesus, what the hell are you wearing?" he looked like he was about to laugj.

"comfortable clothes, Calum." I dryly said, I didn't want him to know that I just randomly picked out the outfit from my suitcase.

"Don't you have other comfortable clothes?" He sniggered, as I give him a light punch on his arm. "I overslept, I didn't have enough time to decide what I was gonna wear."

"God, you're such a loser." He says, letting out a laugh. "Shut up, Cal." I frowned.

"Anyway, did you get the flowers?"

"Yeah, I think you forgot about the fact that roses were my favorite flowers." I said with a blank expression. This was obviously a test.

"I thought echinaceas were your favorite?"

"Nope, wrong girl." I said. Calum just stands there, as he pursed his lips together and scrunched up his face in confusion. Although I still wanted to give him a test if he really knew me, I couldn't help but let out a laugh. Calum looked so confused and serious I couldn't help but feel bad, it was a funny sight.

"I was starting to think it was my other girl." He says, a smirk on his face before walking away.
