"No" I shot upright as I heard the knocking at my bedroom door.

"Not yet" I said confused, unsure weather I was dreaming or if I had woken up.

It was 8 am and it had only started to getting lighter when I woke up because it was mid February. I loved this time of year when the plants started growing in the parks again, and slowly I could start wearing something other than wooly jumpers and UGG boots.

"April, we need to start packing! Your flight is this afternoon!" Matt's PA Alice shouted through my door.

How did she get it to my apartment?

"Okay, okay. I'm up!" I got out of bed sleepily and made my way to the bathroom and shut the door with a loud bang to make it obvious that she woke me up and I wasn't happy about it

"I'll make us some breakfast!" I barely heard through the bathroom door.

I just stood in the shower for 10 minuets just thinking about the upcoming tour and the boys. I made myself promise to focus on music and not to get distracted by the boys or relationships. I always kept my promises but I knew the next few months would be different.

When I had finished, gotten dressed and packed the last few items, which took the best part of two hours, I went to sit down at the breakfast counter where I was greeted by the amazing smell of bacon and eggs. Yum.

The perfect way to start a trip.

"You've got 10 minuets until the car gets here!" I can't remember the last time I actually felt excited.

For those of you who don't know me, I live for an adventure, a 'spur of the moment get up and go' kind of life and this tour was just what I wanted and needed as of late.

The chance to explore new cities in distant countries and the chance to write new songs about my adventures was how people, who knew me, would describe me.

The door bell rang and Alice sprinted to it so we didn't keep the driver waiting. She opened the door and greeted him with a happy hello.

"Good Morning David! How are you today?" She asked gesturing for him to come inside. He stepped in as he replied.

"Good morning Alice. I'm fine thanks. Are these April's bags?" He's said as he gestured to the bags piled at the left of the door.

"Oh yes! I'll help you load them as APRIL GETS READY!" she shouts making it obvious we're leaving soon.

I got up put my plate in the sink and went to grab my coat and shoes from my room. When I'd put them on I stood in front of my floor length mirror taking myself and this whole situation in. I'm gonna miss this place, but I'm gonna love the change.
