7 Months After*

Today was July 16th. And it was Luke's birthday.

Me, Naty and the rest of the boys were planning a surprise party for both Luke and Ashton since Ashton's birthday a couple of days ago.

On Ashton's birthday, he dragged us to the nearest KFC and began a long and boring speech on how he used to work at KFC before joining the band.

Me and Naty were in LA, since the boys started living here since summer started to write music.

My mom was cool with it since I had practically nothing to do back in San Diego, so Naty and I have been staying with the guys in their Los Angeles house.

It was six in the morning and the sun was just beginning to rise. We had planned a special way to wake up the birthday boys today.

Water guns and balloons filled with water at hand, we slowly walked into Ashton's room. Everything was silent except for the low humming sound coming from the air conditioner.

"Your phone ready?" Michael whispers to Calum who had a water gun in one hand and his phone in the other, ready to video everything.

"Uh huh." he snickers. "Three, two, one,"

Then we start throwing water balloons at Ashton, who shrieked and fell from his bed, a drenched and tangled mess of pillows, blankets, arms, and legs on the floor.

His hair sticking to his face, he looks around the room in shock. "What the fu-"

"SUPRISE" I scream at him.

He raises his eyebrows and laughs with his girly schoolgirl giggle.

"Um... thanks?" he says, trying to stand up, but ends up slipping and falling down on the floor again, his face high-fiving the floor. "Ughhh" he groans.

We snicker at him and head outside to refill our water guns and stash of balloons. We run to Luke's room, Calum still videoing.

Inside, I see Luke, his pair of headphones on his ears, the sound of The Foo Fighters coming from them.

I tiptoe over to him and slowly remove the headphones off of him, careful not to wake him up.

"Wouldn't want these to get wet now, don't we?" I whisper, smirking, and put them around my neck.

After Michael counts down, we throw the balloons at him and he abruptly stands up, his eyes wide, and runs out of his bed yelling "THEY'RE GOING TO STEAL KETCHUP" before hitting the wall with this face and falling to the ground.
