Luke's p.o.v.

"Oh my god, I hate flying!"

"Fuck I can't get my seat belt on!"

"Wooo, London baby!"

The boys were all rambling about their own things, making keeks for our small but incredible fan base. I, on the other hand, was staying quiet. I'd plugged in my earphone that my Dad bought for my birthday and rested my head back. Like Calum, I didn't like flying either, and liked to keep to myself especially while I was taking off or landing. Bury Your Head by Mallory Knox came on, and I found myself drifting off as I thought about the distractions that London would give me.

-

"Luke," Ashton lightly shook my shoulder. "The planes landing." He told me. Thankfully I'd managed to drift in and out of sleep for the whole flight.

"Woo, London baby!" Ashton said once again as stepped out the plane into the cold English rain. He had actually said that multiples times today according to Michael, but I had been too unconscious to notice.

"Lydia said to go to baggage claim then to go out front and look for a guy that will have a sign with our names on it then he'll take us to our hotel." Ashton told us, he was the one who dealt with any business-y things that we had to do because he was the oldest and insisted on doing it.

"Will she be at the hotel?" Calum asked hopefully, he denied it every time but we all saw that he had a little bit of a crush on her, and even though he denied it every time we all knew that he had written 18 about her.

"Yeah, she said she would be there to help us check in and help us settle in," Ashton smirked. "I bet you'd love to settle into her." Ashton mumbled. I was the only person who heard him which made me burst out laughing which Calum sent me a death glare because he knew that whatever it was that Ashton had said was most likely a joke about his milf.

Once we found our driver and got into his car I began to run over all the places and things I wanted to see while I was in London. Of all the places I wanted to I think the most important place was the London Eye because since I was young and had seen pictures of it on the internet or somewhere else I always thought it looked cool.

London had such a strange vibe to it, just driving along the street and seeing the variety of people walking along the street made me look at everything in a certain way. There were middle age men walking around with nothing but an empty paper cup, beginning others for money, then young woman walking together with mass amounts of shopping bags over their arms, then older men in black suits with briefcases making there way back from work.

It was around 5 and even though I had slept on the plane I was shit tired. Luckily we didn't have to do anything important until Wednesday, where we would finally get to meet Mr. Graham and talk to him in person. Lydia had assured us that he was a nice, relaxed gentleman who looked scary but wasn't. None of us were entirely sure what she meant by 'scary' but all knew well enough not to ask.

We arrived at the hotel a while later, took our bags out the truck of the car and carried them into the lobby with the help of the driver.

Once Lydia spotted us she made her way over to greet us all, hugging us individually which clearly made Calum a happy little Asian boy.

"How's my favourite bass player?" She asked, giggling like a five year old; and I didn't like children much. Well, that wasn't true. but I only ever liked children who were related to me or that I actually spent time with. But I didn't like children running around and screaming to each other.

When I thought about my future and how my life might be I pictured myself having kids, I wanted two at the most and a boy and a girl if I was lucky enough. Lately though, whenever I thought about my future I pictured Maggie being there and having my kids, which actually worried me since I'd only met her for one night and had fallen for her so hard that I was fantasizing about her having my kids.

"Let's go to our room!" Michael said louder than everyone had been talking before, it snapped me out of my daydream and soon enough I was focused on the boys and London, with only the thoughts of Maggie lingering in the back my mind that I would come back to sooner or later.
