Recap: if you haven't read "backstage sessions" then I suggest starting there 😉
Colson POV
I got up out of bed and went into the side table and grabbed my cigarettes. Rehab or not they are allowing me to smoke but not weed. I lit one up and took a deep inhale as I let it fill my lungs. I grabbed my phone and played our song as I sat there, taking everything in.
I took everything from her. I took away love, trust, a wedding, a life with and without me. I guess I'll just have to see her in my dreams.
I took another hit of the cigarette and put it out, laying back down ad I felt myself start to . In my most vulnerable moment she wasn't here.
This changes everything, because now I have to set her free.

One year later
Luna POV
I rushed around the room, trying to get things finished before my next client came in. Josh had told me that it was a secret and he couldn't tell me who it was. I hated him for that, it wasn't good with my anxiety.
"Luna, your client is here". Morgan, my assistant said. Yes I have an assistant and I couldn't be happier.
"Send them in". I smiled and quickly tied my black hair in a bun.
The only issue was the long hours on my feet, crouched over and I swear my finger has abs from pressing the button of the camera. The door opened to four girls. One blonde, two with long brown hair and one with curly hair. I knew them, but from where?
"Oh my god. You're Luna Hart. We were wondering where you went"? The blonde spoke as she took off her jacket. Thick accent on such a petite girl.
"Yes that's me". I smiled.
"Well I'm Perrie, this is Leigh-Ann, Jesy and Jade, we're little mix". She smiled.
That's who it is.
"I'm so sorry, I completely forgot you ladies were coming today. I do apologize". I said and grabbed my camera.
"Its not a problem. We couldn't wait to meet you, you're all our friends talk about". Jesy smiled and walked over to the backdrop.
"I seen your work. It's amazing". Jade smiled.
"I love your music so it's a win, win". I laughed and they all stood with Jesy. "So, this is a normal shoot for "No more sad songs right"? I asked.
"Yeah. Our feature was supposed to be here but he couldn't make it". Jade sighed.
"Oh no worries. I can just take them of you then when i come on set ill do all 5". I smiled and set my camera up. "You guys can get glammed up over there". I smiled and they walked over to the tables.
I smiled when Amara walked in holding a coffee. "Thank you". I whispered and took a sip.
"I see you have your last clients for the night. How about drinks afterwards"? She asked.
Ever since everything Amara left Jackson's company due to personal reasons. I didn't blame her.
"Rain check. I'm going out for Alex's birthday but your more then welcome to come". I giggled and she nodded.
"I wouldn't miss it. Just let me know when your done". She winked and waved over to the girls as she walked our.
"Okay, we're ready". Jesy smiled as Perrie fixed her hair.
They all walked over to the backdrop and I had Leigh-Ann and Perrie sit on the stools. I took a few pictures then I took them individually, making sure to capture everything. I smiled as I looked at the last group photo.

I never liked to brag but I've been getting really good at this. I took some more and once the hour was up I wrapped it up.
"Thank you again for doing this. It really boosts my ego". I laughed and Perrie smiled.
"Anything darling. It's amazing that we got to come here." She smiled
"Okay ladies. We have a date with a music video set. We hope to see you around hun". Jade said.
As they walked out I emailed the photos to Josh for him to do the final edit and once that was done I packed up. My feet were killing me. Now all that was left was to celebrate the birth of my best friend.

The bar was crowded tonight. It's normally dead. I reached for Alex as he walked through the bar. After the break up between him and Nicholas he's been a completely different person. I kinda hated it.
"Watch out. Two baddies on the hunt for a man". He yelled.
I hid my face in his back as we finally made it to the table.
"Those boobs are it girl". He smiled and took a sip of his drink.
"Can you not, I hate it". I said.
"So what. You wore the shirt". He winked.
I had a deal with him. The deal was if we went out he couldn't act gay, as a guy guy. For instance, Nicholas was the one who talked sassy, Alex wasn't. He puts on shows for others around him and it gets tiring.
I rolled my eyes and looked around bar. It was packed with first time drinkers for spring break and im pretty sure some were underage. I knew I should have stayed home. I turned back to Alex who was fighting the straw in his drink with his tounge. He was definitely drunk.
"So who are you looking for bitch"? He asked and searched the crowded bar.
"Nobody Alex. I'm single and ready to do nothing". I said and downed my shot
"That's no fun. It's my birthday, make my wish come true". He said and grabbed my hand.
I shook my head. "No". I giggled.
"Fine. Don't say i didnt try to help you when you're at my wedding all sad and jealous". He sassed and finished the rest of his second drink.
A few flashes from cameras were around us as people still followed me around like lost puppies. It agitated me now, fully pisses me off.
"Ugh these bitches". Alex said as he put his hand up for the waitor.
"How about we slow down and maybe go dance". I laughed and he shook his head.
"You drink to have fun. I drink to forget. That's the difference between us sweetheart". Alex said and sat up. "Let's go to the bar"! He yelled.
He dragged me off the stool and up the steps to the bar, my heels making me trip over everything. I laughed as he fell infront of me and dragged me with him.
"Shit girl. Watch your fucking step"! He groaned.
I held my stomach from laughing so hard. This is the kind of night I needed, the nights I've missed. This is why Alex and I are best friends, he's the caios to my calm.
