I walked out of the bathroom, hand in hand with Luke, and feeling that 'on top of the world' feeling that I was so happy to be feeling again.

We walked into the living room to see everyone hanging out once again and surprisingly, all I felt was good vibes.

My heart skipped a beat as I looked to the far left side of the room and saw Lyndsey and Ashton sitting together on the small leather couch. ASHTENDSEY YAASSSS! Lyndsey didn't seem to notice my presence because she was too busy running both of her hands through Ashton's hair as he basically layed on top of her, talking with everyone else and finally letting his bubbly laugh erupt again. It was amazing how entertained she looked by doing just that. 

My eyes shifted to the other couch and there sat Molly, Calum, Michael, and... Connor? Wow was he really still here? 

Molly sat next to Calum as they conversed with Ashton about various topics while Michael sat more near Connor and chatted with him. I'm guessing that Michael was still too stubborn to make up with Molly, but if he doesn't soon then he's getting a nice, big, punch in the neck because that's not cool.

Luke and I plopped down on the couch across from everyone else and then they FINALLY noticed we were alive. I smiled brightly as Lyndsey noticed my arrival and gave me a relieved smile and Molly did the same as I looked in her direction.

"Did you sleep well?" I asked Connor.

"Let me tell you man, that bathtub is the shit." he answered with a laugh as he gestured towards the bathroom and we all joined him.

After the laughter died down, Ashton sat up immediately. 

"Band huddle." Ashton yodeled out of the nowhere and all the boys in the band shot up out of their seats, walked over to the sidelines, huddled together, and started whispering frantically.

"Uh, rude?" Lyndsey sassed as we all watched them.

"GaAaAayY." Connor called out and we saw four middle fingers emerge from their circle.

Once they finally finished whatever 5sos's discuss, they shuffled back over to us and smiled devilish smiles.

"What are you nuggets up to?" Molly asked suspiciously, only causing the band to giggle like little school girls before running in separate directions, saying they'd be right back.

We waited for about two or three minutes until the band returned, Luke and Michael with their acoustic guitars, Calum with his bass, and Ashton with his box thingy that I could never remember the name of. They set their instruments down quickly to grab stools from the kitchen before setting up their little area and positioning themselves in front of us, still having those cheeky grins glued on their faced.

"Simmer down, everyone." Luke announced only for Michael to hit him in the arm and the whole band to roll their eyes while he chuckled at his own joke..... I think it was a joke.

"Okay sOoOoOO," Ashton started.

"We've been working on our first single-" "Heartbreak Girl? Try Hard? What are those pieces of lettuce?" Lyndsey interrupted and I almost cried.

"Let me finissshhhhh!" Ashton whined. 

"We finished our first single today-" Ashton said and Michael coughed an exaggerated cough.

"GEEEEEZZZ, OKAY MICHAEL AND CALUM FINISHED IT OKAY WHATEVER." Ashton corrected himself and Calum and Michael smiled accomplished smiles.

"The point is, we finished it, and you guys missed our performance before so we thought we'd give you a little something something." Ashton beamed and my eyes lite up.
