here's an update for my night owls. for my american friends reading this, take a deep breath! this is almost over...hopefully😅 and no matter who you support, this whole process has been stressful on everyone and i hope everyone is doing ok. take care of yourselves! put your phone down and get some exercise or something you like to clear your mind because this year has definitely taken a toll on everyone<3

i'm suddenly awoken by harrys deep voice. he pushes the hair out of my face and kisses me.
"hey i've got to go. kaylee is in the hospital and kendall is waiting on me. kaylee spiked a fever of 104 and they can't get it down." he whispers. i'm a little groggy but i wake up.
"yea of course go!" i say shooing him. he heads out of the room.
"i'll call you when i get to my gate." he says.
"ok. bye love you." i manage to say. i'm super tired and my eyes are dragging me back into a deep sleep.
"i love you too." he says as he shuts the door. i fall back into a deep sleep. an hour or so later, my phone starts buzzing and wakes me up.
"hello?" i say.
"hey babe, i'm about to board the plane." harry says.
"ok have a safe flight." i respond.
"i'll call you once i get to the hospital." he says.
"ok. i hope everything is alright!" i say.
"me too. i'll talk to you later." he continues.
"alright bye." i say before hanging up. right after i hang up, niall bangs on my door.
"hello!" he screams. i roll out of the bed and shuffle to the door. i open it and he's leaning against the door frame. when he sees me he frowns.
"you're not ready?" he asks.
"no. why would i be?" i respond.
"we have sound checks! where's harry?" he questions.
"kaylee isn't feeling too well so kendall had to take her to the hospital." i say grabbing a hoodie. he shrugs and walks into the room and heads to the mini kitchen. "where's everyone else?" i ask.
"in the car waiting for you." he replies stuffing his face with chips.
"you could have told me that!" i reply. i run into the bedroom and change into athletic shorts and shirt. i throw my hair up into a pony tail and slip on some shoes.
"ready?" he asks.
"yep." i say grabbing the room key and my phone. he follows me out of the room and leads me to the car. liam louis and zayn are all singing random songs in the car. zayn is holding a microphone that is connected to the aux and louis and liam and fighting to take the mic from him so they can sing. we hop into the car and drive off to the venue. as we're warming up my phone rings.
"hey! how's she doing?" i ask sneaking away from the rest of the boys.
"she's hanging in there. her fever dropped to 101." he says sounding a little exhausted.
"well at least it's going down. how's kendall?" i ask.
"she's really stressed. she went home to go sleep." he replies.
"that's good." i say. i'm interrupted by zayn.
"hey, we're about to start going through the set list." he says.
"ok i'll be back in a sec." i reply.
"do you have to go?" harry asks.
"yea they boys are waiting." i reply. "are you going to be back for the show tomorrow?" i continue.
"i don't know. depends how she does." he says sighing.
"ok, we'll keep me updated. i hope she's fine. love you and get some sleep! you left super early this morning!" i say.
"alright. bye." he says before hanging up. i put my phone in my pocket and rush out to the stage. after i run through my songs, we decide i should sing some of harrys parts when if he can't be there. when we finish, we take a selfie on the stage. i hold out my phone and niall rests his chin on my shoulder, liam rests his chin on my forehead, louis crouches a little bit in front of me and zayn leans in next to me.
"that's a very good picture!" liam says.
"should i post it?" i ask.
"yep, good promotion for the tour." zayn says.
"ok." i say. i open instagram and caption the picture "scottsdale, we're ready for you." and put the rest of the dates of the tour. i post it and within seconds it gets tens of thousands of likes. many of the comments ask where harry is but i don't think it is my place to disclose what's happening with kaylee. we leave the venue to go to a restaurant that louis rented out so we don't have deal with crazy fans. louis liam and zayn all go to the bathroom but niall waits with me because he didn't want me to be alone. we talk about which chip brand is better and how ireland is an underrated country. the boys come back and we order our food before i go to the bathroom to wash my hands. my phone buzzes and it's a facetime call from bff/n.
"hey girly!" she says.
"hi!" i respond excitedly.
"are you with the boys?" she asks.
"all but harry." i reply.
"i want to meet them!" she squeals.
"ok! ok!" i say scurrying out of the bathroom. i mute myself and talk to the boys. "this is my best friend, bff/n, and she's not a hardcore directioner but she likes you guys and wants to meet you." i say giggling a little. liam signals for me to hand him the phone. i unmute it and give it to him.
"hello bff/n!" he says. i can hear her scream on the phone. the boys laugh. i shake my head laughing and sink my hands into my head because of the second hand embarrassment. after we eat and head back to the resort, harry texts me.

harry: lol.
along with the text is an attachment of an article that says "y/n l/n getting a little too close with harry styles' band mate, niall horan." and in the article are paparazzi pictures that look like they were taken from a drone of niall and i leaving my resort room, the selfie we took with the boys, and paparazzi pictures that were taken at the restaurant of me and niall when liam, louis, and zayn were in the bathroom.

y/n: oh my god that is the stupidest thing i've ever read. i didn't know we had sound check today so the boys were in the car and niall came to the room to get me but i wasn't ready yet so he came in and ate chips while i got ready. the selfie is just stupid, and liam, louis, and zayn were in the bathroom washing their hands and niall didn't leave me because we were the only ones in the restaurant.
harry: i never said you were guilty of anything! i thought the article was rubbish. kaylee is fever free by the way:)
y/n: i know you didn't say i was guilty but i don't want you to ever feel like i would do something like that. and that's great news about kaylee!
harry: well thanks. hopefully she's fever free for 24 hours and i'll get to come back and steal you back from niall!
y/n: haha very funny! 🙄
harry: alright, i'm going to get some sleep. i'll facetime you later tonight.
y/n: ok! i'll talk to you later

i put down my phone and open up some ice cream and turn on the voice and relax.
