Ashley's pov

Calum and i had got our house perfectly set up for today's party. I couldn't wait. Finally, all five of the nuggies would be meeting at the same exact time for the first time. I had to make sure everything was perfect for tonight. I was nervous, and so was Calum. But i knew everything would be just fine.

Calum stopped me from what i was doing. He took the plates i had in my hand and sat them on the counter. He wrapped his arms around my waist and held me in his arms. "Relax baby." He whispered as i closed my eyes and rested my head on his shoulder.

"I'm trying." I breathe out.

He lifts my head up as he brushes the hair out of my face. He sets a kiss to my forehead and then let's go of my waist. He takes my hands and i follow him to the couch. We had 15 minutes until everyone got here. I knew more needed to be done around here but i needed to stay right where i was.

I looked up at Calum who was smiling down at me. "Have i told you how beautiful you looked today?" He says making my cheeks flush red. It's been almost a year now, and he still knows how to make me blush.

"I really love you." I tell him as i stretch up to kiss him.

We didn't realize how far that went, nor did we hear the door open. What made us pull apart was the sound of one particular couple gagging which made us laugh. I got up quickly and fixed myself as Calum did the same. He quickly wrapped his arm around my waist and held my close.

Luke and Chloe, along with Petunia, stood across from us. "You guys are gross." Chloe says making me roll my eyes.

Calum and i walk over to hug the two as the front door opens again. In walked Ashton and Sha who recently started dating a few months ago when Sha finally decided to move here into an apartment with Chloe. I smiled at the two as i walked over and said my hellos.

We all moved the little party to the backyard where tables were already set up with snacks. I walked back into the house to grab a few other stuff i needed when the doorbell rang. Strangely, i walked over because no one hardly uses the doorbell. Everyone just walks in.

When i opened the door, a man who've i seen before because of Ashton, stood at the door with his camera. "Andy." I say laughing. "You didn't have to ring!" I pull him into a hug.

"I didn't know." He smiles.

As Andy walked in, Michael had threw a shoe at the door to catch it from closing. I rolled my eyes as Andy laughed and picked up Michael's shoe. "Want it back?" Andy smirks.

"Yes you fucker." Michael says running to the door as Andy tosses it to him.

Trailing slowly behind was Audrea and Kami. I smiled at the two girls and hugged them both at the same time. Kami finally decided to more here last week, and got in a few days ago. She hasn't decided where she's gonna live it, but i offered her to stay here with cal and i. Audrea is bunking in with Chloe and Sha time to time. Other nights she stays at Michael's. Audrea and Michael have been talking for a few months now, but it was easily seen that they were trying to keep their dating life a secret. I never understood why.

When Kami came in, Andy dropped his camera out of his hands and his mouth dropped. Kami blushed as she walked over and put her arms around him. "close your mouths, you don't want bugs flying in." She says winking as Andy closes his mouth.

Andy kisses her cheek and everyone around exchanges looks. "What was that?" I asked Kami who smirked holding onto Andy.

"We may have seeing each other for a few months now." She shrugs. Andy smiles as he holds her tight.

I shrug it off and lead the group out into the yard where a few other of our friends had made it here as well. I was so happy to see Roy, Mitchy, and Mali here. It was nice. Everyone was finally here all at once. I found Calum who was sitting with Mali, Luke, and Roy. I sat down on Calum's lap as Mali had smiled to us.

"You guys are the cutest. I'm so happy you found each other." She says we i smile and kiss calum's cheek.

"He's my soulmate." I tell them as i stare down at Calum.

I could see him smiling. "God i love you."
