Flashback: (because why not we literally know nothing of the past and the drama is funny)

"C'mon, Adri" My cousin, Ali pipes up, grabbing hold of my wrist as she drags me through the many hoards of people standing around in the arrival area of the Los Angeles International Airport. We were standing here waiting to pick up Niall and the boys. The girl who stood beside me that I call my best friend and cousin was so anxious she was practically going crazy.

Next thing I know, Ali is racing forward to embrace a boy, Calum. That boy is practically all she talks about nonstop a lot, I love her but the girl was absolutely crazy when it came to her love life. All the girl talked about most of the time was him. It was always about Calum, Calum this, Calum that. It was quite annoying if you ask me.

"Adri! You there?! You were zoned out for a couple minutes there, you alright?" I look up to be met by Ali staring at me along with another pair of eyes, brown ones, which belonged to Calum. I had no idea how long I zoned out for.

"Yeah, I'm fine, just thinking," I reply to her.

"Like I said before but you weren't listening, this is Calum my boyfriend," she says with a wide smile as she leans her head on his shoulder.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Adrianna," I tell him politely with a smile.

"I'm Calum, glad to finally met my girlfriend's best friend, heard a lot 'bout you from Ali here," he says in his accent. It sounded different from Ali's British accent, Irish if I'm correct? Australian? I feel my cheeks heat up as he mentions that he's heard a lot about me from Ali.

"Really, Ali?" I question with a slight laugh.

"Yeah, I like to tell him what you're like," she replies as he leans down and kisses her on the temple. I couldn't help but smile at them, they were super cute, I had to admit. His hair was styled up in a coif and he wore a snapback.

"Where are the other guys, babe?" she asks the boy who stood beside her.

"Who knows, how 'bout we go look for 'em, I'm sure their 'round here somewhere," he says looking at her before looking over at me.

"C'mon Adrianna! You aren't going to wait here by yourself, are you?" Ali asks looking at me, her eyes wide with curiosity as Calum held her close, his arm wrapped around her resting on her side.

"No, I'll follow," I tell her, honestly. She nods as her and Calum begin to walk off and I trailed behind so we could find his other band mates. After heading over to baggage claim, we finally spot them, well Calum does.

"Lads, what are you doing?!" Calum calls out to the few boys who look our way. They begin to head our way bags in hand.

"Adrianna! You look great, how are you, love?" a boy with messy light brown hair and blue eyes comes forward and pulls her into a hug.

"Hey Lou, I'm great now, lots of studying but I'm happy!"  I tell him pulling away from his warm embrace.

"And who might this lovely lady be?" Ashton says, eyeing me, a grin on his face. I know all their names!

"Lads, this is my cousin, Adri," she introduces me to the guys of Five Seconds Of Summer; it's kind of weird, my friend Cara is related to Michael and I know the one direction lads because of my brother and Harry.

One by one, they come up and embrace me into a hug and introduce themselves to me. The one with the same color eyes as myself and dimples has introduced himself as Ash. Next, someone very familiar with, Mikey.

"Hey babes, it's been a while yeah?" He says as he picks me up and hugs me tightly resting my head on his shoulder. "You colored your hair!" I laugh thinking of the baby Michael I grew up with right down the block.

"Wait.., I'm confused." My cousin tells Michael and I. All the other boys nod in agreement.

"Michael is Cara's brother, I told you this before.. I haven't seen him in years," I half smile because I missed him.

"ohhh" a mix of accents irrupt from the lads.

Lastly, the blonde haired boy came forward. He had blue eyes and a cute grin that played on his lips. I even noticed his dimples as he smiled, which is one of the things I absolutely loved in a guy. I soon learned he was of course the lady killer himself, Luke Hemmings. This boy was gorgeous; I tried to keep myself from cracking a small smile. As I stared at him, I tried my best to keep from blushing but felt my cheeks heat up as he spoke. He was clad in a Rolling Stones shirt, jeans, sneakers and a leather jacket.

God, why did these boys have to be so good looking? They were way too hot for their own good. I couldn't wait to get home and take a cold shower so I could shake these crazy feelings I was having. Once we made sure the boys had all their belongings, we were now heading back home.

I tried to keep myself occupied on the ride home by playing Temple Run 2, while Ali and Calum talked nonstop, just like rest of the boys.

Honestly, I'm glad my cousin is a good driver, especially now since her boyfriend is here, and she wasn't losing her focus. I was in the back and Luke sat beside me chatting with Liam.

Every so often, I looked over to see Luke glancing my way. As I looked at him, he shifted his eyes away from mine and I could see a small smirk playing on his lips. We soon arrive at the house about close to twenty long minutes later. That drive from the airport seemed to drag on and on, especially being in a car with all boys cramped up, Niall sat in the trunk. I just wonder where Harry was?

After Ali parked the car, we all piled out. The boys carried each of their bags inside, once I unlocked the door with my key.

"Where will each of us be sleeping?" Louis asks, looking at Ali and then over at me. Shit, I had a feeling this was coming.

"Well, Cal will be with me, obviously," Ali says with a smirk as Calum presses a kiss to her cheek.

"Whoever wants one of the guest rooms have at it, there are three beds in one of them, so it's good enough size for two of you in there," I say looking at the boys stood in the front room.

After discussing for a few more minutes, the boys finally come up with a plan for who's sleeping where. Liam, Zayn and Harry (Who was busy and couldn't make it today), were going to share the one guest room that had three beds and three separate dressers in there along with its own bathroom. That left Louis and Luke to choose where they would be sleeping. It sounds like my cousin and I are rich right? My mom is a fashion designer and I haven't seen my father since I was 12.., my grandfather built this house for his family and now we live here.

I just hope I didn't have to share with one of them, but if I had to, I guess I'll have to deal. Michael is staying at his place with his sister. Family reunion!

"I call the other guest room!" Louis calls out, earning a shove from Luke..

"Adri, you don't mind having to share your room with Luke, do you?" my blonde best friend questions me staring at me as we stood there in the entry way alone. The boys were putting their things away where they would be staying for the summer. I couldn't believe I'd have to share my room with Luke.

"I guess not, I'll deal," I mumble as I stare at Ali.

This is sure going to be interesting.
