Michael:

I opened my laptop again as soon as my mother left my room. My boyfriend Michael's face was still showing on the screen, but now it had a confused expression on.

"What was all that about?" he asked.

"Sorry, my mom was here. She's gone now though" I smiled but he didn't do the same.

"I still don't get why your parents don't like me" he frowned.

"Michael, it's not you, they just don't want us together, that's all."

"You know that's not true. The last time I saw your father he said that I was no good for you. Why would he think that? It's not like I have done anything wrong."

"They just don't understand Michael."

"What is there to understand? That we love each other? They were once teenagers like us and I'm sure they felt the same way, they should understand."

"Yeah, but-" he interrupted me before I could even start talking.

"I'm just tired of hiding it, you know. And besides, they will soon find out. School is almost over for you and you won't be able to use the excuse of 'doing homework' to lock in your room and Skype with me." I sighed.

"You're right. Don't worry, we'll think of something."

Calum:

Calum was on tour with his band and since he was having a free day, we decided to explore the streets of Milan. I got distracted in a souvenir store and I didn't noticed that I went a little too far from Calum. Now he was no where to be seen. I freaked out and literally searched in every store in the mall.

I suddenly got an idea. I grabbed my iPad; I had it to take pictures of our journey and quickly opened the Skype logo. I couldn't call him because my Sim didnt work in here. I quickly send a request for a Skype call to Calum and he soon accepted it. Cal's head popped in.

"Oh my God Y/N I've been worried sick! Were are you? I've been looking for ages for you!" Calum said with a face expression full of worry.

"I'm at this souvenir store in front of the café that we were in a few minutes back" I told him.

"Ok I'll see you there" He said and ended the call.

Minutes later, I looked up and I was greeted by a pair of lips pressed in mine.

"Never do that again Y/N, understand?" Calum said holding my face on both hands.

"Promise" I said and we continued on our make out session in the middle of the mall.

Luke:

"DADDY!" the little girl jumped and threw her hands in the air as soon as Luke's face appeared in the laptop's screen. The look in her face was priceless. Her eyes twinkled and lips were curved in a gigantic smile.

"Hey princess! How are you doing?"

"Not good" she pouted. "I miss you." I rubbed my daughter's back as a light smile escaped my lips.

My husband Luke had been on tour with his band for a couple of months and he had to leave me and our 6 year old daughter at home. Ever since he left she had missed him, but she had never pronounced a word about it until today.

I was scrolling through my Twitter in the middle of the night when I hears sobs from her room. I immediately went to check on her and found her curled into a ball with her face buried into her plush penguin, crying disconsolately.

"Baby, why are you crying? Did you have a nightmare?" I asked, sitting in her bed and pulling her into my arms. She shook her head.

"I m-miss daddy..." A tear rolled down her cheek and I felt as if my heart could literally break in thousands of pieces.

"I have an idea" I said then bringing her to my room and calling Luke over Skype.

"I'll be back real soon" he said from the other side of the world.

"You promise?" She said popping up her pinkie.

"I promise" Luke did the same.

"Daddy?" she said a yawn escaping her mouth.

"Yes?"

"Can you sing to me like you always do when I go to sleep?"

"Of course" he said reaching over for his guitar and started to play a pretty melody. My daughter rested her head in my chest as I stroke her hair. Some minutes later, she was sound asleep.

Ashton:

I have one month to live. The doctors can't do more. Every day I feel worst. My boyfriend Ashton is on tour. He almost convinced management to let him come and spent my last days with me, but they didn't allow him. Being alone on a apartment is so sad, and knowing that you're going to die anytime soon, doesn't make it any better.

I was currently sitting on the sofa with a blanket wrapped around my body watching The Fault in Our Stars. I was the Augustus Waters of the real life. The grenade.

I suddenly felt a familiar pain in my lower abdomen, but this time it was stronger. I grabbed myself with both hands. I felt nauseous and dizzy.

I should've called 911. It's what they told me, to call a doctor if I felt worst, but there was still nothing to do. No matter how much they wanted to longer my life, sooner or later, I had to die. And right now, I preferred that rather than living 10 more days with this pain.

Minutes later, when I finally felt that I wasn't gonna puke I quickly grabbed the Laptop that was next to me. A deep pain went through me when I stretched my arm. I turned it on and Skyped Ashton. Miraculously he accepted the call and all the boys faces popped in the screen.

"Hey! Y/N... Y/N, baby are you ok?! You look so pale, what's going on?!" Ashton started to panic on the screen when he saw my hurt expression.

"Ash, I was calling... (You pulled a face because the pain was getting worse) to tell you that I love you. Find love again, Ashton. Keep on living your life and... and don't forget me. Luke, Mike, Cal, I love you guys so much, you were the big brothers that I never had. Ash, just... remember... that I love you" I said then collapsed to the floor and started breathing heavily, I heard screams on the line and the last words I ever heard was the sweet, angelic voice of Ashton saying 'I love you too Y/N, forever and always'.
