George's POV-

I woke up suddenly and yawned, rubbing the sleep from my eyes.

Ugh.. What time is it? I pushed myself up onto my forearms and then squinted into the darkness of my room.

For some strange reason, I had woken up in the middle of the night. I don't have to use the bathroom.. So why did I wake up?

I looked at the clock on my bedside table and felt my eyes widen once my eyes focused on the time.

"4 bloody AM?!" I groaned and then flopped back down onto my pillows, smushing my face onto the fluffy material.

I never wake up during the night. I'm a pretty heavy sleeper, so it'd take a lot to wake me up before daybreak.

Well, since I'm awake I should probably edit that video.. I thought to myself and then shook my head, dismissing the thought.

No, I'm taking a break right now.. and I don't know if I could handle hearing his voice right now..

I glanced around my room, looking for a familiar figure but then remembered.

Kendall had gone home last night, after I managed to convince her I would be alright throughout the night.

I don't need a babysitter, and that's kind of what she was doing. I needed a friend for emotional support, not a caregiver.

I yawned and then threw the covers off myself, suddenly realizing too soon why I had woken up.

I yelped as the cold air came into contact with my burning skin. I felt as if I just came out of a sauna.

I quickly pulled the fluffy comforter and sheets back onto my body, making a cocoon around myself.

I was definitely in pre-heat.

I always hated this part, more than actual heat itself, though that was almost equally as bad if you didn't have a partner.

Pre-heat always happens a few days before an actual heat. I guess it was to attract a mate before you actually had to be secluded? I don't know, all I know is that it happens.

It doesn't come with all the heat symptoms, but it has just enough to make you uncomfortable. Such as fever, which is what I currently have.

To say the least, it sucked. But, thankfully it only lasted anywhere between 4-8 hours. Which meant Kendall couldn't come over until well after 12. The pheromones needed time to air out.

I've considered getting heat-suppressants, but they can sometimes cause infertility or birth defects, and I do plan on having kids in the future.. So, I just have to suffer through.

My previous heats haven't been too bad, but now that Kendall was gone and I was on my own, it was going to be almost unbearable.

I shuddered at my teen days, when I had just started getting heats. They were absolutely horrible. I was too young to buy anything to help myself back then.

I quickly grabbed my phone and then burrowed back under my covers. I opened it and dialed a familiar number.

"Ugh... What do you want George? It's like 1AM.." Kendall said groggily when she answered.

"Hey Kendall. It's actually 4, but I called to tell you to come over after 12, maybe around 2. I'm in pre-heat."

"Aww.. you poor thing! Okay, see you then!"

I smiled and then hung up, trying to go back to sleep.

Clay's POV-

I hadn't slept the entire flight.
