(6 MONTHS LATER)
Aria's POV
'Come on Doug, we are going to miss our train if you take any longer!' I called up the stairs to my brother.
'Alright, alright i'm coming Aria. Keep your hair on!' I heard him yell back.
Today was our 23rd birthday and we were off to go and see my favourite band, 5 Seconds of Summer live in London at The Roundhouse. When I say my favourite band, I mean other then my brothers band McFly. Yes that's right my brother is the bassist of popular four piece McFly.
Swiftly moving on, Dougie had managed to get me tickets 5SOS concert tonight, Sunday 30th November, and had given them to me as my birthday present. He told me that last week he was writing with them and they had offered them to him. I felt bad because all I had got him was a blink 182 t-shirt and some cool picks for his bass. I suppose it's the thought that counts right? I was so proud of him he was out living his dream, where as I was stuck working in a recording studio up the road from our flat in London. Pay isn't great but everyone has to start somewhere I suppose. It might sound like i'm jealous... I'm not, I mean not completely. I never wanted the fame or the fortune. All I want to do is sing and write, that's the only thing I want to do in life. That's how I ended up working in a recording studio, even as a receptionist. It's all experience I guess. I often attempted to help some of the artist that come into the studio with writers block too. Admittedly they do just tend to ignore me but I try.
I suddenly heard footsteps coming down the stairs and then Dougie appeared. He was wearing the new t-shirt I had brought him, he seemed to be pleased with it and that is all that mattered to me.
Dougie's POV
'Come on then sis, we're gonna be late' I winked at Aria and rushed to the door. She followed with the biggest smile on her face. I haven't seen her this happy in a long time. She was so excited to be going to see 5SOS she could hardily contain herself.
She's had quite a difficult year and a half, and before that wasn't great either that goes for both of us. She was in a bad relationship and went through a bad break up. Her ex is bad news and was an alcoholic, not long after their relationship ended he took his own life after realising the amount of pain he had caused. Aria blamed herself. It was the thing that pushed her off the edge and sent her to rehab. It wasn't until about a month ago she started to get into the dating scene again, she finally seems to be coming out the otherside of everything she has been through. It hasn't been an easy ride for either of us.
We arrived at the tubestation within 10 minutes, we only had to wait 5 minutes for the tube we needed to catch before it arrived. Once off the tube it was a 15 minute walk to The Roundhouse. When we got to the venue there were already people lining up so we went and found the back of the queue. We ended up lingering by what I remember being the back entrance from when I had played there with the other McFly boys. I was a little worried that people would recognise me, I did get a few excited looks but thankfully everyone seem to leave us be. About 15 minutes before the doors of the venue were due to open, the back entrance we stood by opened.
Aria's POV
I heard the screech of the door we were stood by open and turned to see what was going on. It had only opened a jar, however I could see movement. I caught what seemed to be a whisp of dark hair walk pass the door. I thought it kind of looked like Calum but I quickly dismissed the thought as they were due on stage soon. Just then the door swung open more to indeed reveal Calum Hood bassist of 5 Seconds of Summer who had come to see the fans accompanied by security. My mouth fell open in complete shock. I knew we had backstage passes but I was going to give myself time in the concert to prepare. Dougie had told me to stay cool before we left, but I idolised these people especially the drummer Ashton Irwin. I also had a slight crush on him which Dougie teased me about. Calum had spotted Dougie and was heading straight for us.
