I woke to the sound of pots and pans banging in the kitchen. I groaned and opened my eyes then closed them again due to the sun light being directly in my eyes.

"Who is being so damn loud?" I said aloud. I turned over in bed and saw Luke fast asleep beside me. I looked past him and to the clock on the nightstand "8:47? Calum is up early man." I got out of bed and walked down the hall, following the noises.

"Did I wake you?" Calum asked once he saw me. I responded by nodding my head yes. "Oh sorry, Rosie woke me up at 8 and I couldn't fall back asleep. Hungry?"

"Starved actually. What are you making?"

"Pancakes. It's the only think I know how to make." Calum smiled at me and then looked over at the burning pancake on the stove. "Sort of know how to make." He laughed.

"Why don't you get some coffee ready and I'll do this." I took the spatula out of his hand and took over as chef. "So, are you excited to get back into touring mode?"

"I am actually. I think I'm the only one that's excited about going back to America and doing the shows and stuff."

"Ya, Luke isn't too excited about the bus life..."

"I like living on the bus." Calum was always so happy go lucky, he never saw the bad in anything. "I like waking up in a new spot everyday."

"Good morning." I turned my head and saw Luke walk into the kitchen.

"Morning bubs." I gave him a kiss and he pulled me into him to hug me.

"Those smell good. I'm starving." He took a seat at the kitchen island and poured himself a cup of coffee. "I just got a call from management and they want us to have a meeting with them at 11. Ash said we could do it at his place so I'll drop you off at home before I go Hailey."

"What do they wanna talk about?" Cal asked.

"They didn't say."

"They better not want one us to start fake dating someone again..."

"Oh God... Imagine if they set you up with Aubrey Jones again!" I said laughing. Remembering back on those days of the Aubrey drama makes me laugh now. "What happened to her anyway?" I set the plate of pancakes on the table and poured myself some coffee.

"I heard she opened up for Shawn Mendes at a few of his shows." Cal said.

"Are you all packed?" Luke asked me. "We have to leave for the airport in an hour."

"Ya I just have to pack my makeup then I'll be done." Luke seemed stressed for this promo tour and I didn't know how to help him. He's kind of been out of the public eye this past year. After our wedding the band decided to take a year off of touring so Luke and I could have time to settle into married life. Luke stopped using Twitter and Instagram to connect with fans and some of the fans were kind of angry at him for it. Luke wouldn't go to award shows in the U.S and people started to think the band was breaking up, management got pissed off at him for not connecting with the fans anymore and they made him feel really guilty for wanting to be private for a bit. I looked over to Luke who was sitting on the bed lost in thought. "You okay?" He looked up at me and smiled.

"Ya, just tired. I'm exhausted just thinking about all this traveling." I stood up from the floor and walked over to him; putting my arms around his neck, his hands went to my waist immediately.

"You don't have to lie to me you know." Luke let out a little laugh.

"I'm sorry... I'm just so nervous to get back into the limelight. This past year has been so relaxing and I've been so happy with you, I'm scared that touring will make us drift apart a bit." His grip on my hips tightened.

"Luke, you know how clingy I am with you. We will not drift apart, I won't let that happen." He pulled me into him and held me for a few minutes, when he let go he had a big smile on his face. "What?" I narrowed my eyebrows at him.

"I am so in love with you."

"I am so in love with you too." I kissed him for the thousandth time and got butterflies again. "Now let's go, we have a plane to catch."
