Even though Felicity's conversation with Calum was brief, she was already comfortable with him which came as a shock to both her and her bandmates.

"Really?" Matt questioned glancing at Felicity shocked before looking forward to open the door so the four of them could enter the lobby, where they apparently had to wait to meet 5 Seconds of Summer "I don't believe you sat there all alone with him."

"Figured it would've been bad to turn my back on a guy we have to spend the next three months with." she responded, shrugging her shoulders gently before dropping herself down onto one of the sofas by the doors.

"He's actually pretty chill." Her bandmates were shocked to hear their friend approved of the male bassist already but they didn't want to put her off so they didn't question it and just sat down also.

"This guy came and got him though, it was quite rude, actually." She turned up her nose at he memory, flicking her lilac coloured hair out of her face. "He's got an Australian accent so I assume he's in Calum's band. Looks about our age. Bit of a dick though."

Jeremy was about to respond but was cut off when he noted a man trying to enter the building. The man was stood on the outside of the revolving doors, watching them go around, clearly trying to gather the nerve to jump in.

"Why doesn't he just use the other door?" Isaac asked.

Nice one, Newton had a habit of watching people using doors. None of them remembered what started it, they had been doing it for so long. Sometimes, it proved to be a decent source of entertainment, especially revolving doors.

"Maybe he doesn't know it's there." Jeremy offered.

"Should we go help him?" Isaac grinned at Matt mischievously. Matt returned the look before the pair jumped up and ran for the door.

They went around and around, dancing as they went, more putting off the man than helping but at the end of the day, it's what they did and even though Felicity thought it a little cruel of them, she still laughed along with Jeremy.

"Right, Pete is just about to bring the boys down." Maria stated as she sat in the arm chair next to Jeremy's.

"What are those two idiots doing now?" She sighed after spotting the youngest and oldest boys still doing the conga as they went around and around in circles. "How do you two put up with them?"

"You learn to love them." Jeremy muttered looking at Maria. "Will we get along with this band? Fe says one of them is a bit of a shithead."

"I didn't say that." Felicity argued.

"You said dick which is actually worse."

"Still didn't call him a shit head."

"Alright children, stop bickering." Maria smiled at the two.

As difficult as the band was to deal with, she couldn't help but love them. They brightened her otherwise shitty days.

"Which one are you talking about?"

"I don't know. Red and black hair." Felicity stated.

"I believe that's Michael, only one that dyes his hair, as far as I've heard. What makes you say that about him?"

"Just the impression I got."

"You get that impression with everyone you meet."

"I didn't with Calum."

"Then stick with Calum, just make sure to get along with at least one of them for the next few months."

"Aye ma'am."

"Good girl and Jer-Will you two stop being a pair of two year olds and come sit down?!" Maria snapped after spotting Matt and Isaac dancing rather provocatively.

"But Maria!" Isaac whined.

"No, come on Isaac, you and Matt can give each other lapdances later."

"Fine." Isaac pouted but sat next to Felicity all the same.

Matt made sure he helped the man into the building before joining his friends, perching on the arm of the chair beside Maria.

Matt always chose to sit as close to Maria as physically possible. He had always favoured the older women, even if the age gap was no more than eight years.

"I assume that's them?" Matt noted after ten minutes of talking.

Pete was getting closer to the seating, four boys right on his heel. Calum grinned and waved at the group, more specifically Felicity and Isaac. Of course, Isaac waved back madly whereas Felicity just smiled lightly.

"Felix!" Calum exclaimed plopping down on Felicity's right. "Did you miss me?"

"So much." She responded rolling her eyes.

"I trust you kids can get to know each other without adult supervision?" Pete questioned looking directly at Isaac.

"Yeah, we're big boys now." Isaac responded giving Pete a sickly sweet smile.

"And girl." Jeremy added.

"Didn't know you got the change, good on you, Jer'." Isaac reached over and patted Jeremy's knee supportively.

"Be good, Isaac." Maria warned as she stood. "I will be around the morning you leave, to make sure you're not forgetting anything."

"Alright, see you then." Matt smiled at the woman before watching as she walked away with Pete, appreciating the way her hips swayed from side to side. "Shall we introduce ourselves then?"

"I'm Ashton!" The boy with mole holes than material of his t-shirt exclaimed with a smile. "I'm the drummer."

"Me too!" Isaac grinned. "I'm Isaac."

"They got that." Matt chuckled. "I'm Matt. Lead vocals and guitar."

"Luke, same." The one with the lip ring spoke giving a little wave.

"I'm Michael, I play guitar." Felicity barely even glanced at the boy, she didn't want to associate with someone who gives such a rude first impression.

"Jeremy." Jeremy raised his hand. "That's Felicity, she's plays bass and does backing vocals."

"Don't you talk?" Ashton asked smiling at the girl who simply shrugged in return.

"That's rude." Michael mumbled under his breath, crossing his arms over his chest.

Even though everyone heard him, they all chose to ignore his comment.

"Uh, I'm Calum." The bassist stated trying to clear some of the tension that just appeared. "Bassist, but you probably guessed that." He chuckled.

"Great, now we've got the shitty part out of the way, let's go get some lunch or something because I think we all want to get out of here." Matt offered up.

No-one hesitated to agree.

They all quickly left the building and headed to the closest Nandos, talking as they went.
