"If you could all you know, shhh a bit that'd be more than great." I sarcastically moaned and pulled the blanket covering me and Gary over my head.

"She doesn't fair to well to being woken up to early in the morning." Gary said from below me.

"Shut up Barlow." I muttered into his chest.

"Is someone a little hungover?" Lauren said clearly entering the room.

"Somehow I don't think I'm the only one in this room that is hungover."

"Katie you don't even know who's in the room." She said sitting at the end of the sofa we were on.

"My opening sentence was 'If you could all shhhh' I know exactly who's in the room, there's you, me, Gary, Howard and Jason. I can assume that Mark is in the kitchen and I have no idea where Robs gone." I finally accepted I wouldn't be getting more sleep any time soon so sat up so I was practically straddling Garys stomach. "Morning baby." I leaned down and kissed him pulling the blanket over us both.

"Good morning beautiful." He muttered against my lips.

"Hey you two, if you'd like not want to jump each others bones right there that'd be great." Howard sniggered.

As I sat up to turn around and glare at him Gary decided to give him the finger.

"Wait, what time is it?" I asked nobody in particular.

"Nearly 11." Mark shouted when he walked back in the room with a cup of what I assumed was coffee. As if simultaneously myself, Howard and Jay put our hands over our heads and groaned at his loud tone while the others laughed at us.

"Do you three not even get hangovers?" Jay asked Mark, Gary and Lauren.

"We clearly have a higher tolerance for alcohol." Mark replied for them.

"And that is clearly why you two are perfect for each other." I cooed at Mark and Lauren. "Oh and another question, where's Robbie?" I asked again, no one in particular.

"He's gone to do some promotional stuff for his album somewhere." Howard answered.

"Isn't he bringing out his album like-"

"A week before mine, yup." Gary cut me off. "And Olly and One Direction are bringing both there's out on the same same day." He continued with a slightly sadden look.

"Yeah but, Ollys is just a rerelease of Right Place Right Time with like 7 new songs and a tour DVD isn't it?" I said trying to make the situation better.

"I guess, but what about One Direction?" He asked.

"You're slightly screwed with that one." Howard said hitting him one the back while making his way for the stairs.

"Oh, nice one mate. Aren't you suppose to be supporting me and reassuring me that everything will be fine?" He turned his attention to Howard who was about a third of the way up the stairs.

"Look I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like that man, it's just know what they're like, they could bring an album out with covers of the worlds shittest songs and they'd still probably get to number one." He tried to defend himself.

"No it's fine, I get your point." He sighed. "Excuse me babe." He said lifting me off of his stomach.

"G are you okay?" I asked while he was headed towards the kitchen.
