The next morning I wake up to a pair of fists punching on my bedroom door. I groan and roll over to look at my alarm clock. "Half past seven, really?" I manage to say, "What do you want." 
The door opens, revealing a - in my opinion - way too enthousiastic Donya. "Your mom let me in. Get ready." 
"What are we doing then?" I ask, sitting up straight in my bed, trying to get my eyes a little more open. Donya stares at me, giving me a weird look. "Are you serious? We're going to Amsterdam with a band. Remember?" 

"Oh... that thing..." I say and she sighs. "I can't believe this. Now please, get ready." 

I do as she says, but I can't decide on what to wear. All my clothes are either too bright, or too dull, too big or too tight." 
"Do we really have to go? I have nothing to wear..." I sigh and Donya folds her arms on front of her chest. "Of course we're gonna go. Here, try this." She throws a pair of black skinny jeans and a blue sweater at me. I try on the clothes and they fit me perfectly. I didn't even think of this outfit, even though I really like it. "See? Now go do your makeup and then we've got to go."

Once I'm satisfied with my hair and makeup I put on my most comfortable sneakers. "Let's go." When I walk downstairs my mom is sitting at the table with a proud look on her face. I groan. "It's not a date, okay?"
She smiles and then my sister comes walking out of the kitchen. "Yes it is." "Yeah," her boyfriend says, "It's so funny that you actually like someone. Usually you're so picky." he laughs and my sister joins him. "Now go, Sara. Calum Hood is waiting for you. And don't do anything I wouldn't do." she grins and I sigh again. "Come on, let's go. This is getting annoying." Donya says and I agree with her. I grab my bag and close the door behind me. After a while of travelling we arrive at the train station. "Here we go," my best friend smiles, "I hope we can find our way... lost girl." That makes me grin and we start walking. 

"Well, we're offically lost..." I sigh and sit down on a bench. "What do we do now?"
Donya shrugs. "Let's call one of the guys maybe?"
"Oh, no way," I immediately say, "They will laugh themselves to death and I'm not planning on embarrassing myself once again."

Donya's quiet for a while and then pulls her phone out of her pocket. "Google Maps always saves us." She types in the address on her phone and we start walking again. 
After a while of walking we arrive at the hotel and we walk into the lobby. 
"There they are!" I immediately say and I turn around to face Ashton. 

"Hey Ashton," I say and he gives the two of us a hug. "Where are the others?" That makes Ashton laugh. "Well, Luke's not much of a morning person so I bet Calum's trying to wake him up right now. He was awake the first, I think he was just so excited to see you. But don't tell him I said that," he laughs, "And Michael is getting dressed, let's go upstairs."

Donya and I follow him and when we arrive at the second floor, Ashton opens a door. "I've brought some girls!" he yells and Michael turns around. "What... oh it's you! Hey!" he walks over to me and my best friend, giving us a hug. When he lets go he grins and says, "Let's go get Calum and Luke." 
We walk out of the room, over to the room next door. "Room service!" Michael knocks on the door and without waiting for a respons he opens the door, walking in. "What... Oh hey Sara, hey Donya!" Calum smiles and pulls me into a tight hug. I am more than happy to hug him back, and I immediately feel a lot better. When we let go I look at his outfit. He's looking very nice, and suddenly I'm feeling very self concious. But before I can overthink, Calum says, "You're looking nice today... not that you don't look nice on other days, I just mean-" "Thanks." I say and I can feel my cheeks burning. "Well, Luke's in a morning mood today as you can see." Ashton grins and points at Luke, who's standing in just his underwear and a shirt in front of the mirror. "Say good morning princess." Michael says and Luke groans. "Morning... who am I saying good morning to?"

"To me." Donya grins and gives him a hug from behind. 
"Well, that's certainly waking me up." Luke smiles and turns around to hug her back. 

"Ey, lovebirds, I would love to give you some time alone, but it's already ten o'clock, so get dressed and let's go." Calum says and wraps an arm around my shoulder. "Didn't get lost this time?" he asks and I sigh. He immediately knows what I mean and he laughs. "Once a lost girl, always a lost girl..." he chuckles and we walk out of the room. "I'm looking forward to spending a day with you." he says and we both smile. "Me too."

Then Luke is finally ready and we all walk downstairs. "So, what first?" Luke asks, "I think you know what's nice to do in Amsterdam better than us, so tell." "Well, we maybe could go for a drink first?" I offer and they all nod.
