:3 And of course the handsome dorks at the side <3

I groaned as light filled my room and a random, as it seemed, song started to play quite loudly. It took me some time to comprehend that it was my tone for getting a message.

Once I did though, I sat up immediately and grabbed my phone from my nightstand, unlocking the new gotten message. I didn't even bother to look at the time, though I had no idea what time it could be, and waited not so patiently for my slow phone to open the message.

"Hmm, whatya doin'?" Ashton mumbled sleepily from next to me, obviously woken up by either my phone or me.

"I got a message." My voice was rough and it was barely a whisper, but it was clear enough because not a minute later, as my eyes were scanning the first words, Ashton shot up.

"What?!" I read the message completely, before dropping the phone in Ashton's lap and jumping from my bed, running to the bathroom to start changing. I changed into the simple sweats and sweater that were on the edge of my bathtub and ran back into my room, to see Ashton still reading the message.

"Ashton, get up! I'll go and wake Mike and Cal." I told him, before running off to their rooms. I banged on Calum's door, shouting something along the lines of "Get up we have to go.", before moving on to Michael's door and doing the same, ignoring the feeling like it was 3 AM.

"Whaaatt?" A sleepy Calum asked me from his door.

"I said; WE HAVE TO GO." I yelled, running back to my room to retrieve my phone. Once there I saw my phone on my bed and no Ashton. I grabbed my phone and took off to the hallway to put on my shoes as the boys were doing whatever.

"MICHAEL GET OUT OF BED!" I heard Calum yell, before Ashton came jogging into the hallway.

"Laylay, what are you doing?" I raised my eyebrows as I got up.

"What does it look like?"

"No, I won't let you come. It can be dangerous and I don't want you to get hurt or anything that way."

"Ashton! I know you don't want that, but I'm perfectly fine with looking out for myself! I survived three rescue missions so far, nothing is going to happen." I told him, as I got up. I made my way back into the living room, where Calum came stumbling in as he was putting on his shirt.

"I hope you do realize it's only half past three." A half asleep Michael grumbled as he entered the living room in some sweats and a shirt.

"I don't care!" I told him, even though I somewhere did because I was starting to feel tired and jittery, something I always had when I had to get up this early, which didn't happen often though.

"Where's Ash?" Calum asked, as he made his way to the hallway. "Never mind." He then called.

Michael followed and then me, watching as the boys quickly put on their shoes.

We left the house not too long after and I immediately walked to the car.

"Wait, where do we have to go to?" Calum asked, before unlocking the car and getting in.

"The woods." I told him, as Michael and I got in the car as well, in the back.

Once we were all settled, Calum drove the car away from the house and to the woods.

"Why do we have to get up at half past three in the morning to go to the woods?" Michael asked, as he rubbed his eyes.

"I got a message and it said that we had to go to the woods and we would get our first hint there." It sounded as vague as it did when I had read it for the first time.
