Ashton sat on his beatbox, Luke sat on the floor beside Ashton and Calum sat beside me next to the sofa.

I whispered something on Calum's ear. He was confused at first, but I said to go on with it.

He stood up and went over to Mikey.

"Hey man, can we exchange seats?" He asked.

"Uh...yeah sure."

Michael sat next to me and asked. "What's going on?"

"Well, Sam has a crush on Calum. I just wanna see if there's some chemistry." I smirked.

Michael shrugged in response.

Sam was covering her face to hide her red face. But then Calum said something I can't quite comprehend, and she looked up. They were having a conversation now. She was smiling, and so does Calum.

To lessen the tension, I asked. "So why are you all here with your instruments?"

"We saw some cool dude from Twitter saying we'd make an awesome collab together. So uh...can we give it a try? F-for the fans." Luke explained.

I looked at the girls. "What do you think?"

"Sure."

"Definitely."

"It's cool."

"U-uh...yeah that'd be awesome."

I clasped my hands together. "Well then, shall we go to the booth or shall we just make a video here in the main room?"

"It would be better to make a video here. Like the old days." Ashton said.

"Okay then. Girls, get your instruments." I ordered.

Before the girls piled out the room, Tiffany said, "There's some ice cream on the fridge. If you want some, the little kitchen is in the room to your left."

The boys nodded and went to get some ice cream. Elize was left in the main room setting up the camera.

I went to the instruments room with the girls. It was filled with all kinds of instruments except a beatbox.

Tiffany pouted. "It would be bad if I played the drums."

I then spotted an acoustic guitar. But then I thought...

4 guitars, 2 basses and a beatbox.

"Hey girls." I called. "How about we just sing instead of using our instruments? I mean, yeah we suck at singing but there would a lot of instruments on the video and the sound may just go...boom."

They agreed and we went back to the main room. Elize made the setup quite nicely. Sofa in the middle and two chairs at each end. A camera was settled in a tripod and was position in front of the setup.

"Nice work, Elize." Allison complemented.

"Thanks." She replied with a smile.

The guys entered the room and looked at us like we were three head ghosts.

"Where are your instruments?" Ashton asked.

"We kinda decided not to use them. Like c'mon. 4 guitars and 2 basses? One wrong move and the sound would just go downhill." I explained.

"Wait, two basses? Who plays the bass in your band?" Calum asked.

I smirked and pulled Sam in front. "Samantha, of course. She practice playing it because she idolizes you."
