"Adam do you want to go exploring?" I ask. He looks at me funny. "I mean, take the train somewhere around here and walk around." I smile. "Okay. Where would we go?" He asks.

"Buffalo Grove? They have a mall in the town nearby." I tell him. "Okay!" He squeaks, running to get a backpack ready.

I get a text on my phone.

I'm lonely... Want to cuddle?

I roll my eyes at Michael. "Adam do you want to look at this and tell me the things you want to do today?" I ask. He nods happily, taking the pamplet.

You have 20 minutes MR!

I head over to Michael and Luke's room. I knock on the door and I'm pulled in. "20 minutes is mean!" Mikey pouts. "Well so is ditching my little brother." I reply smartly, flopping on the couch. He beams and sits next to me. "Mario Kart?" He asks. I nod.

"Why is my avatar Princess Peach?!" He exclaims. I burst out laughing. He looks at me. "LUCAS!"

----

"2 round trips to Buffalo Grove, one kid, one adult." I tell the lady. She smiles and hands me my tickets. I pay and we walk to the train. "Can we sit on top?!" Adam squeals. "Of course." I laugh. He runs up the stairs and I follow him. We get situated. I get a text from Michael.

"HELP LUKE IS CHASING ME AFTER I EMPTIED HIS BOXERS INTO THE TOILET AND PUT SHAVING CREAM IN HIS SOCKS! 🆘🆘🆘" I show it to Adam and he screams in laughter.

The lady across from me smiles and opens her mouth.

"Is that your son?" She asks. "Oh! No, this is my little brother Adam!" I smile. She laughs and excuses herself. "Are you Saphira Molloy?" A little girl asks. "I am!" I grin. "Oh my gosh you're going to the Rolex next year! You're the youngest competitor! Can I have a picture?!" She squeals. I nod and we take a selfie. "What's your name?" I ask.

"Charlotte." She replies. I spend the next 20 minutes chatting with her. Then I get a text from Luke.

Lol I locked Michael in our hotel room!

I roll my eyes.

"Luke! Let Michael out!" I tell the boy over the phone. "I can't." He replies. "Well have Ashton do it!" I exclaim. "No. My fork fell and Michael got stuck inside." He explains. "WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?!" I hiss. "GET ME OUT OF HERE!" Michael shrieks. I almost die laughing.

"Say hi Mike you're on keek!" Calum says. "Calum how is that helping?!" I laugh. "Can I talk to them?" Adam asks. I nod and hand him the phone just as someone says the F word!

"Hey don't swear!" He squeals. I rub eyes and start talking to Charlotte and her sister again. "Was that 5 Seconds of Summer?" Sophie asks. "Yep." "Did Luke get Michael stuck?" She asks again. "Yep." "Classic!" She giggles. "Yeah my sister-" I start but she cuts me off. "Kira is dating Niall, so you became good friends with Michael after they introduced you." She grins. I nod.

"Sorry. I'm just really excited." She smiles. I laugh and we carry on talking. Adam gasps suddenly and his eyes widen. "Is that even a word?!" He squeals.

I pluck the phone out of his hands to hear everyone fighting. "GUYS!" I yell. They stop arguing. "I think it would be wise to oh I don't know... FIND A MECHANIC AND RESCUE YOUR BANDMATE?" I say, yelling the last part. "She has a point." Calum says. "Luke you're a *bleep* *bleep* *bleeping* *bleep* *bleep* *bleep* *bleeping* *bleep bleep*" Michael shouts. Ashton gasps. "Adam wasn't listening to that right?" He asks. "No." I reply.

"Hey in my defense... I'm just a little boy." Luke cries. I roll my eyes. "I have to go guys, call me if you have any more trouble." I hang up. The train comes to our stop after about an hour. "C'mon Adam." I say, grabbing his hand. We head over to the rent a car place and rent a cheap car.

"Where are we going?" Adam asks. "You'll see." I grin to myself and we start driving.

----

"Okay. We're here." I smile. His face lights up. "Santa's village Azoosment park?" He asks. I nod. We gather our things then head to the gate. After we get our wristbands and things, we go to the rides. "Can we go on the merry go round?" Adam asks. "Of course." I smile. We get in line.

The ride stops and we get on. "THESE ONES!" Adam yells, running to a pair of zebras. I laugh and climb on. "Hey Adam." I smile and he looks at me. "Selfie!" I exclaim. He sticks his tongue out and I make a funny face.

The ride starts and Adam starts talking. "Then Michael called Calum an as-" I interrupt him. "Don't finish that sentence bud." I smile. He laughs as the ride stops.

"Do you want to do a pony ride?" I suggest. He looks at me like I have 3 heads. "Why are you asking that question?" He asks and drags me over to the pony wheel.

I can hear him talking to the little paint pony he's sitting on. "I ride a pony at home in California. Her name's Daisy. You'd really like her." I let out an awe.

The ride ends and he yanks me to the petting zoo. "Ah it's a wallaby!" Adam exclaims. "Here pose with it." I say and he nods.

"@Saphy_M: We got a photo with @Ashton5SOS! pic.twitter.com/asdfg5"

"@Ashton5SOS: @Saphy_M Haha very funny! 😳"

Adam catches sight of something else and takes off dragging me. Pray for me.

----

"Hey super sibs!" Kira grins. I roll my eyes. "You are unusually happy. Why?" Blake asks. "Well, in case you FORGOT, it's my birthday." She says. I mentally slap myself. HOW COULD I FORGET? AUGUST 30, 1994. SHE'S 20?!

"No, yours was last year." I shrug and walk out of the room, my 2 brothers following me.

"What are we going to do?!" Adam whispers. "Oh I know. Go get Niall." Blake exclaims. I nod and run to Niall's room. I pound on the door and he opens it. "We forgot Kira's birthday!" I shout.

"She never told me her birthday is today!" He sighs. "She didn't want an all out party. Now. We need to get everyone together so Kira doesn't skin all of our hides." I tell him. He sends out texts to all of the boys and pretty soon I'm in Calum and Ashton's hotel room surrounded by 11 guys.

"What are we going to do?" Niall groans. "Oh I have an idea!" Adam exclaims.

----

Kira comes backstage crying. The lights are totally off. I look at Adam and he nods to Niall. "SURPRISE!" We all shout. Except it is completely dark still. "Adam! Lights!" Blake whisper yells.

The lights flick on and we yell surprise again. She gasps and runs to hug Niall. "You didn't forget babe!" She beams. They kiss and I gag. "I'm right with you on that one!" Michael nods.

"We'd like to stay and celebrate, but we have to go open." Luke grins and they run out.

I turn to Kira and Niall who are still kissing. Adam looks like he's seen a ghost. I drag him away and we stand backstage watching 5sos.

When they come off, One Direction goes on. "Alright guys we'd like to start off by singing happy birthday to a very special lady in my life. Happy Birthday Kira!" Niall exclaims.

They start singing and we join in. Except the 3 of us sing the alternative version. "Happy Birthday to you, you live in a zoo, you smell like a monkey, and you look like one too!"

While they are performing, I get a text from Erin.

Call me now.
