Abbey’s P.O.V

Ariella had finally started talking to them rather than nudging me to answer for her.

“So have you guys actually moved in yet?” Calum asked

“Well sort of, we just need to unpack our bags,”

“I’m sure we can help with that,”

“Hah! Just because you want to see their bedrooms,” Michael said and I found myself laughing and tempted to lightly hit him.

“It’s okay, we can do it ourselves soon, we don’t have that much stuff really,” Ariella said

“That’s cool then,” Calum responded

“Hey, Ashton, can I use the bathroom?” I asked

“Don’t leave me alone with them!” Ariella whispered to me

“You’ll be fine,” I whispered back

“Yeah, I’ll show you where it is,” Ashton said standing up

I smiled and followed Ashton to where the bathroom was; I thanked him and let myself in.

Ariella’s P.O.V

Oh god, why did Abbey have to leave me with my favourite band?

“So Ariella, how did you and Abbey meet?” Luke asked

“Oh, we met in pre-school and have been friends ever since,”

“That’s cool!”

I smiled and lightly pinched my arm to make sure I actually just spoke to Luke fucking Hemmings. I looked up and Abbey was walking back into the room, I sighed a small sigh of relief.

“So can I come over and thrash your asses at FIFA please?” Michael asked from beside Abbey

“I suppose so, Ariella yay or nay?”

“Yeah, do the rest of you guys want to come over too?”

I offered not really knowing what I was doing. I heard a few agreements and a small groan from Ashton; I was guessing it was because he actually didn’t like FIFA.

Abbey and I walked over to our house with the whole of 5 seconds of summer following us.

Abbey’s P.O.V

When we arrived Ariella snuck off to get the Xbox out of her bag, but I think she was giving herself a few minutes to let her excitement out. I wasn’t going to check on her; instead I asked if any of the boys had music they wanted to put on. Luke gave me his phone to connect and some music started playing. I put some chips in the bowl and placed them on the coffee table for the boys to share. I saw them grab a handful each and tried not to be disgusted by the fact that Michael was ‘sprinkling’ his crumbs back into the bowl, like who does that?

“Would you guys like anything to drink?”

Before anyone could answer I was pouring some coke into glasses and I handed it to them before returning to the kitchen to pour Ariella a glass of lemonade. She then returned to the room with the Xbox and I helped her set it up. The boys were sitting on one of the couches and Ariella and I sat down on the other one. I threw the remote I had at Michael so he could play against Ariella and Ashton came and sat next to me.

“Are you going to play?” he asked

“No, I can’t I’m too shit at the game,”

“I just don’t like FIFA,”

“Fair enough,”

“Are we just going to sit here and watch?”

“Yeah, why?”

“I was just wondering,”

“Okay,”

I looked over at the screen and saw that Michael was indeed trashing Ariella.

“Hey, we should have a full on sleepover some time,” Calum offered

“Maybe,” I said

“Do you guys want to do something tomorrow?”

“Like what?”

“Go to a theme park?”

“Yeah that sounds awesome, what time do you want to meet?”

“You’re not getting me up before 12,” Michael butted in

“Don’t worry we will,” Ashton whispered to me

“How’s nine thirty so we get there when it opens?”

“Yeah that sounds great,”

I said and Michael gave me a huge glare and I told him he should go have an early night. Ariella and I showed the boys out and headed off to bed.

Ariella’s P.O.V

It was the 21st of July, and I had just met my favourite band.
