Ally's POV:
We were at the show. It was 5 minutes before I got to see Calum on stage. I looked over at Lauraly, Emma, and Halle. They were all so focused on the stage. So I decided to do that too. Next thing I knew, I was hearing the countdown. 5...4...3...2...1... 'What I Like About You' starts playing. All of the arena screams. Including me, Lauraly, Emma, and Halle. Duhh. Luke and Michael come out, then Calum, then Ashton. I look over at Calum and see he was looking around. He sees me and I wave. He instantly smiles. "You're actually here!" he mouths. I just nod. I look over at Luke and see he's focused on something too. I follow his eyes and see that he's looking at Lauraly. Awww. Then I looked over at Michael and Ashton. Michael was staring at Emma and Emma was actually smiling! Halle and Ashton were staring at each other. I totally ship it. I ship it hard. Luke starts singing. We all scream along the lyrics and smile.

Lauraly's POV:
I was so focused on Luke and his singing, I didn't know that he was talking about us! Me, Ally, Emma, and Halle. I actually pay attention to him talking. "Ok. Lauraly Fager! If you're still here, yell our secret phrase!" he yells into his mic. I smile. "Penguins over Pussies!" I yell as loud as I can. I look around and see some girls saying awww and some saying ewww. whatever. Luke has the biggest smile on your face. "all right. Youre still here. Go Calum!" he says. "ok. Ally Baltazar. If you're still here, yell out our secret phrase." he says into his mic. I look over at Ally and she's smiling too. "Michael is an assclown!" I hear her yell. The arena laughs. "So rude today Calum." Michael says. "I LOVE YOU MIKEY!!" I hear someone scream. I look over at Emma. It was her screaming. *overly dramatic gasp* "All right Lucas. They're both here. And they bought their friends." Calum says. "Right. Can you four come up to the stage please?" Luke says. We all silently scream and go on up to stage.

Ally's POV:
We were called up to the stage and we were seated by our favorite. I was again, so close to Calum. I hear him whisper something. "yes!" I smile. Luke starts talking again. "This song is dedicated to you four. Sing along to our parts if you know it." The crowd starts saying awww again. "what Luke means is that when he starts singing, if Lauraly knows the song, sing along with him. Calum starts singing, Ally does too. And et cetera et cetera." Michael says. We all just nod. They start playing Amnesia. The whole crowd takes their phones out and starts waving them around. Calum and I start singing.

'I drove by all the places we used to hang out getting wasted
I thought about our last kiss, how it felt, the way you tasted
And even though your friends tell me you're doing fine

Are you somewhere feeling lonely even though he's right beside you?
When he says those words that hurt you, do you read the ones I wrote you?

Sometimes I start to wonder, was it just a lie?
If what we had was real, how could you be fine?

'Cause I'm not fine at all'

I smile all throughout our part. It was Luke and Lauraly's turn. (dare I say, Lake. ;) ) I hear them start singing.

'I remember the day you told me you were leaving
I remember the make-up running down your face
And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them
Like every single wish we ever made
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
And forget about the stupid little things
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
And the memories I never can escape

'Cause I'm not fine at all'

Me and Calum sing again.

'The pictures that you sent me they're still living in my phone
I'll admit I like to see them, I'll admit I feel alone
And all my friends keep asking why I'm not around

It hurts to know you're happy, yeah, it hurts that you've moved on
It's hard to hear your name when I haven't seen you in so long

It's like we never happened, was it just a lie?
If what we had was real, how could you be fine?

'Cause I'm not fine at all'

I look over at Emma and Michael and they were both focusing on Michael and Ashton. Who could blame them? Michael was always looking at Emma. And once, I saw Ashton glance at Halle. Strange. Luke and Lauraly sing again.

'I remember the day you told me you were leaving
I remember the make-up running down your face
And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them
Like every single wish we ever made
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
And forget about the stupid little things
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
And the memories I never can escape

If today I woke up with you right beside me
Like all of this was just some twisted dream
I'd hold you closer than I ever did before
And you'd never slip away
And you'd never hear me say

I remember the day you told me you were leaving
I remember the make-up running down your face
And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them
Like every single wish we ever made
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
And forget about the stupid little things
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
And the memories I never can escape

'Cause I'm not fine at all
No, I'm really not fine at all
Tell me this is just a dream
'Cause I'm really not fine at all'

The crowd cheers and claps for us. I look over at Calum but he was looking at Luke. All of them were taking something out of their pockets. They took... Ring pops? Yes you heard me right. Ring pops.

Lauraly's POV:
I saw Luke holding a ring pop and I was thinking to myself. Why is he gonna eat that now? But all I saw was him get down on one knee. "On behalf of Cal to Ally, Mike to Emma, and Ash to Halle, and of course including me to you. Would you like to go on a date with me Lauraly?" Luke asks. I almost faint right there. On the stage. But I don't. "Yes Luke. I would love to." I say, smiling. He slides the ring pop on my finger and I see the other 3 do that too. They were all smiling. Luke kisses my cheek and my face turns really red and hot. And I died inside too. The rest of them do the same. But Ally was blushing and giggling, Emma was biting her lip and smiling, and Halle turned pink. "Ok guys. You can head back to the crowd and we shall finish our last song of the night." Ashton says, all giggly. "But one more thing. Check your guys's pockets." Luke says. We all check our pockets and find a tiny wrapped a box and a note. "Open it backstage later. With us." Calum says, smiling. Michael starts playing the song, Permanent Vacation. Luke smiles and starts singing. We just enjoy their singing and scream the lyrics along with them. And of course, exchanging states from one another.
