Calum-

Party dying downstairs, had nothing left to do
Just me, her and the moon

"Well, the kids are settling down in the living room. They have their snacks and movie line-up." (Y/N) said as she came to sit next to me on the swing set in our backyard. "We are finally free." She handed me a cup of hot chocolate and settled into my side.

"And I thought sleepovers with the band were rough," I laughed.

"I agree. You four are children," (Y/N) agreed before taking a sip from her cup. "You should invite them over soon."

"I will," I rubbed her arm. "They have been dying to see the twins."

"Do you wish you could redo anything?" (Y/N) asked.

"What do you mean?" I looked at her in confusion.

"Well, the day we met. Do you wish you could redo it?"

"I wish I could have met you sooner." I kissed her temple. "I wish we did more of this."

"What? Babysit children at their birthday parties?" (Y/N) laughed.

I chuckled. "No, this," I gestured to us and the backyard. "You, me, and the moon."

She curled into me and we just enjoyed the tranquility.

Ashton-

All I know at the end of the day
Is you love who you love, there ain't no other way

"Mum? Dad?" I looked up to see our son standing in the doorway to the kitchen.

"What's up Alex?" (Y/N) smiled at him and lowered the oven heat to low. I wiped my hands on a kitchen towel.

"Can we talk?" Alex was fidgeting with his hands.

"Of course, sweetheart," (Y/N) furrowed her brow. "Ash?"

"Buddy, you look scared," I leaned against the counter. "You know you can tell us anything."

Alex nodded and he wiped some tears from his face. "I like guys."

"Oh sweetie, is that what you were afraid to tell us?" (Y/N) went over to him and hugged him. "Why would you be afraid of that?"

"I just didn't think that you would accept that. I thought that maybe you would be disappointed that I didn't like girls." He had tears streaming down his face.

"Buddy," I went over to him. "It doesn't matter who you love, whether it is boys, girls, or nobody at all, as long as you are happy at the end of the day that is all that matters."

"Really? You're not mad?" Alex sniffed.

"Of course not baby," (Y/N) hugged him close. "Now, Dad and I are gonna finish dinner and you can tell us all about this boy that helped you find who you are." I winked at him and he smiled widely.

Luke-

All I know at the end of the day
Is you want what you want and you say what you say

"No, (Y/N), you are not allowed to see that boy again!" (Y/N)'s dad said. I was over for her family dinner and he was expressing his opinion.

"Dad, Mark is nice guy!" (Y/N) sighed. "Luke, help me out here."

I shook my head. "This really isn't any of my business."

"Luke, do you know Mark?" (Y/N)'s dad asked.

"I don't know him personally, but a lot of people like him. He's friendly and in the top 5 of our class." I continued eating and tried to ignore the knowing look that her mom was giving me. "I've seen him around (Y/N). He looks really happy and I've noticed at lunch that he never once looks away from her when she is talking about something. Honestly, they are really happy together."

"Thank you Luke," (Y/N) smiled. "Daddy?"

He sighed. "Alright, if this is what you want, then fine."

(Y/N) squealed. "Thank you! I'm going to go call him." She got up and came to hug me. "You are the best friend a girl could asked for."

"Yeah," I mumbled. "Happy to help."

"Luke, you need to be selfish sometimes," her mom sighed.

"At the end of the day, you want what you want." (Y/N)'s dad said. "Honestly, I wish she was with you Luke."

I just nodded.

Michael-

When the sun goes down I know that you and me and everything will be alright

I took a breath and knocked on the bedroom door. "(Y/N)?" I heard sniffling on the other side. I jiggled the door and found it locked. "Baby, please let me in." No response. I pressed my back against the door and slid down. "(Y/N), I'm so sorry. I never meant to make you upset. I know that I need to step up the responsibility around here. Honestly, I have been taking you for granted and I never meant for that to happen. If anything, I should be doing everything and you should be the one that gets to lay around and do nothing."

I heard the lock click and quickly stood up. The door cracked a little and I saw (Y/N)'s tear-stained face. "You shouldn't do everything. You suck at cooking."

I laughed. "Okay, you can do that bit if you want." I walked towards the door carefully. "I'm a prick who doesn't deserve you, but I'm not a big enough prick to let you go to bed angry." I gently pushed open the door and she let me. She walked over to the bed and laid down, hugging the pillow close. I closed the door and walked over to the bed and laid down next to her. "No matter what fight we get into during the day, when the sun goes down, you and I are going to be alright. I'll make sure it happens." I gently pushed a piece of hair away from her face. "I don't want to lose you."

She laid her hand on mine. "You're not going to lose me."

I smiled. "So, we're alright?"

She smiled back. "We're alright."

Chapter Question: Favorite One Direction group song?
