Chris's P.O.V.

''Do you like this ?'' Michael asked showing me a shirt . We were out shopping for a present for Calum's party tonight.

''Yeah .'' I said not even looking at it. All I have been thinking about is Ashton. I cant concetrate on anything , but him .

''Okay , tell me .What' going on ?'' Michael asked putting the shirt down.I sighed as I looked at him.

''Ashton and I had a fight.'' I said and he gave me a sympathetic look.

''Did he hit you ?'' he asked and I shook my head .'' I am sure , you will sort it out .'' he said patting my head . ''You know what ? Let's get him this.'' Michael said taking out a plain pink shirt.

''I dont know if he will like it .'' I said and he laughed .

''That's the point.'' Michael said and I took the shirt from his hands.

''Michael , it's his birthday .We aren't buying him a hot pink shirt from the girl's section.'' I said putting the shirt back in its place. Michael giggled like a school girl , as we went to the boys section.Suddenly his phone rung.

"Hey mum." he said ."Yeah she's here ... Oh ,sure .. she'd love that.... Okay we will get Cal a gift and we will meet you there.'' he said and hung up . He turned to look at me smiling .

''What ?'' I asked .

'' Mum has a surprise for you .Let's get him this .'' he said getting a t-shirt with a monkey stamp .''Let's pay , come on .'' he added and went to the cashier.

''What is the suprise ?'' I asked him.

''It wont be a surprise , if I tell you .'' he said smirking, as he paid , before we left .We got in the car and he started driving towards an unknown direction.After a ten minute ride , he parked his car outside of a hair salon , where Anne was waiting.She came over to us and smiled, as she waved me to get out .

''We are getting your hair done today.'' she squealed excitedly causing me to smile.She opened the car door and practically dragged me out of the car laughing. ''Bye Mikey.We will be home in a couple of hours.'' she said as we got in the salon.

''Anne you dont have to--'' I said but I was cut off.

''Stop talking and sit.'' she said and I did as I was told.''So , i was thinking that a red chunk of hair would look perfect with your hair.'' she added , taking a strand of hair from behind my neck .''What do you think ?'' she asked me .

''Yeah , I trust you .'' I said and she smiled .The hairdresser came over and smiled at us.

''This is my really good friend , Bianca.Bianca, this is Chris .'' Anne said and I shook hands with Bianca.

''So , what do you want to do ?'' she asked .

''Oh , a trim would be totally fine.'' I said and she smiled.

'' Oh, and the red streak, Bianca.Chris has a party tonight .'' Bianca took out the hair dye and sectioned a chunk of hair behind my neck.She applied the hair dye and wrapped the section of hair with some foil. We waited for what seemed like twenty minutes and she took out the foil and washed my hair. '' So , is Ashton picking you up today ?'' Anne asked as Bianca led me to another chair , so she could start trimming.

'' We are meeting him there , I guess.'' I said and she looked at me with a questioning look in her eyes.

''Are you guys fine ?'' she asked and I nodded. I dont want to bother her with my problems.I wonder what is he doing now .Is he thinking about what happened ? What if he doesnt care anymore ?My heart skipped a beat on that thought. I hope he comes to the party today.I want to see him.I hadnt realized that I had been thinking about Ashton the whole time , until Bianca said ''Ta-da.'' I looked at myself in the mirror. My hair hadnt lost its length that much, it was curled and the red streak was district and simple.

''Oh my god.Thank you so much.'' I said as I stood up and hugged Bianca.She laughed ,as she hugged me back.

''Oh shoot , we are late .Chris , we have to go .Thank you Bianca so much .'' Anne hugged her friend , before she dragged me out of the salon. ''We have to get you an outfit , there is a store five minutes away.'' Anne said as she started walking really fast.

''Anne , you dont have to buy me anything. I will be fine with a pair of jeans and a t-shirt.'' I said but she shot me a glare .I put my hands in the air in defense and she grabbed my hand , as she continued walking.When we arrived at the store , she immediately went to the skirt section.She picked out a bunch of skirts and t-shirts in superhuman speed and before I knew it she pushed me into a changing room and handed me one by one the outfits. She ended up buying me a black skater skirt , a white t-shirt and a pair of black tights.

As soon as we got home , I went up to my room and got dressed as Michael was complaining that we were late. I quickly put on the clothes and went downstairs. Anne put some mascara on my eyelashes , which felt really weird to be honest ,before Michael and I left . We got in his car and he started driving.'' You look great.'' he said , his eyes on the road .

''Thanks.'' I said.Michael parked his car along with the other cars outside and we got out.The music was really loud ,that I was surprised that no one had called the police.Michael rung the bell and Calum opened the door.How did he hear the bell with all this music ?

''Hello , guys.How are you ?'' he said smiling.

''Happy birthday.'' I said smiling.

''Thank you,Chris.Come in , guys.I will get you both a drink.'' he said as we stepped in.Everyone was dancing and drinking and laughing. I just looked around , trying to spot Ashton.Calum handed me a plastic cup that had what smelled like beer in.Without a second thought I started drinking it like water.

''Woah , Chris that is not water.'' Michael said laughing .''Anyways , I will be over there if you need anything.'' he added and I nodded.I went over to the kitchen and filled my cup again.I drunk the random liquid faster this time , feeling a bit dizzy , but quickly recovering.After a bit , I started feeling a sudden change .I felt more energetic and happy. But then I thought of Ashton .I miss him so much .Tears brimmed in my eyes as I walked around trying to spot him.
