I wake up the next day feeling rejuvenated. I wholly believe that a day every now and then when one gets to do nothing is good for the soul. I manage to fight and escape the soothing warmth of my bed and make my way to the bathroom. I quietly open and close the door behind me, because Lucy is still sleeping and I’m sure she won’t appreciate being woken up at half 7 in the morning. I don’t know why I’m up so early this morning. I jump in the shower and burn off the morning smell. I brush my teeth and smooth my hair, letting it air dry. I get changed into jeans and a baggy hoodie. Once my hair is dry I spray some texture spray in and throw a beanie on. I grab my phone and slid it into my back pocket and leave the hotel room. I just have that feeling where I need to get out and breathe the fresh London air.

Once I reach the foyer, I see some photographers outside the glass. I contemplate if I should leave, or if I should tell anyone. I decide to just go, there isn’t many out there after all. I open the glass doors and bow my head down like Lisa told me to if I ever got in a situation with paparazzi. They shouted various things along the lines of ‘can you confirm or deny your relationship with Niall Horan’ I wear a small smile but I do not answer their questions. Once I walk down the road a bit, and the photographers realise that I’m not answering their shouts, they leave me alone. I’m all consumed in my little world when my phone rings, it’s our estate agent.

“Hello” I answer hopefully

“Hello, is this Phoebe McCall?” she asks politely

“It is”

“Well I’m pleased to tell you that you can collect the keys to your flat today” she says happily. A rush of joy runs through my body.

“Oh my gosh, that’s great, thank you, we will see you later” I gush, she chuckles slightly

“I’m glad you’re happy, see you later on” she says and I end the call
I quickly turn around to go back to the hotel and dial Lucy’s number whilst walking. It rings for a long

Time and I assume it’s because she is still asleep, but she does eventually answer

“What?” she snaps to which I laugh.

“Good morning angel” I say sarcastically. She groans “guess what we get to do today”

“Wait where are you?” her thoughts finally catch up and I laugh again

“I went out for a walk” I say quickly dismissing her question and I hear her hum “anyway, we get to pick up the keys today” I screech, and so does she, finally waking up.

“Oh my god!” she’s excited and so am I.

I eventually hang up and make my way back to the hotel, I climb into the elevator next to a young man. He couldn’t have been much older than me, with his mousy brown hair that was swooped back in a loose quiff and light brown eyes to match. He gave me a polite smile as I stepped in.

“What floor you going to?” he asks sweetly, his British accent booming through my ears. I loved hearing the English tinge to everyone’s speech when I wander around London, and his wasn’t an exception. I tell him my floor number and he presses the button. The ride up is quite silent, the elevator dings but just as I’m about to step out;

“I really hope you didn’t fart and ditch” he says jokingly, he sounds so comically British, he may as well have said ‘trump’ I, of course cannot control my laughter as I watch the doors close in front of his smirk, I turn around giggling to find Harry.

“New friend?” he lifts his eyebrows and tries desperately not to seem pissed off, but I can see through it.

“Err, yeah I guess” I say, my laughter instantly subsiding. He strolls down the hallway quickly. What was that all about?

I get back to my door to see a small folded up piece of paper taped to it with my name written on it. I peel it off of the door with my brows furrowed. I unfold the note and begin to read

I feel bad that I can’t take you out on a real date Miss McCall. You intrigue me and I would love to be more serious with you. The circumstances are beyond awkward, what with your agreement with modest and commitment to Niall, but I would like to propose an idea.
An ‘Indoor Date’; my room at 7pm tonight
See you there cuddles xx

My heart flutters at the note and I’m already excited for tonight.
