Michael's POV
We set off to find the car park that Ashton had left his car in. It wasn't too far, but me, Luke and Calum decided to hang back a little bit to give Ashton and Aria some space. We watched as they were asking different questions about each other finding out more. I watched as Ashton took off his jacket and put it around Aria's shoulders and pulled her into him to keep her warm. It didn't take long to find Ashton's car and once we did, we set off to find somewhere to eat. We settled on a McDonald's as it seemed to be the only thing still open at this late hour. Me, Luke and Calum said we'd get the food while Ashton and Aria found us somewhere to sit. When we were waiting in line I heard my phone go off. It sounded like a tweet I briefly looked at it to see what it was, I didn't pay too much attention to it because it seemed to go off an awful lot lately, the tweet read

'@Aria_Poynter3011: Having an amazing birthday with @Ashton5SOS @Calum5SOS @Michael5SOS and @Luke5SOS. Thank guys and @DougiePoynter xx' followed by one of the selfies of all of us taken early. I laughed to myself and then put my phone away.


Aria's POV
Ashton had just got up to go to the toilet, so I whipped my phone out and sent a tweet to my followers

'Having an amazing birthday with @Ashton5SOS @Calum5SOS @Michael5SOS and @Luke5SOS. Thank guys and @DougiePoynter xx'

I attached the selfie of us all posing earlier and put my phone away. It buzzed a few minutes later as Ashton was walking back over, I pulled it out of my pocket to quickly see what it was. Four new followers...

'Haha, that is a great photo' Ashton commented as he sat back down, while looking at his phone.

'Yeah its my favourite' I smiled at him.

'So earlier you mentioned you write songs.' Ashton said slowly.

'Yes I do. I just write for me really, to get things off my chest. Personal things you know. No one has ever actually read or heard them, so they aren't great or anywhere near as good as the ones you write.' I explained to him, trying to get away from the subject.

'Do you mind if I judge that for myself?' he said with a cheeky smile.

'You can but you're talking as if i'm gonna show you my songs, and that is never gonna happen.' I said bluntly. Ashton held his mouth open feigning shock, trying to bring some humour back into the conversation realising he may have hit a nerve.

'Oh come on Aria, you've heard my songs' he said jokingly.

'Yeah so have millions of other people' I retorted.

'I'm sure i'll hear some at some point' Ashton smirked.

'Oh so are you planning on sticking around?' I asked a little taken a back. Just as I said that Calum, Michael and Luke came over with the food, pushing the conversation aside.


Calum's POV
I took the seat next to Aria and started digging into my Big Mac. I could tell we had interupted something because they both suddenly fell silent.

'So what we talking about?' I asked trying to find out what was going on.

'Well Aria was just telling me about her song writing.' Ashton replied, smiling cheekily as he looked over at Aria who was glaring at him.

'So you write too?' I question interested.

'Yeah, but only really for myself. Nothing that anyone is ever going to see or hear.' She said, emphasizing the word 'ever' while still glaring at Ashton.
