"..and then i met these guys! They are younger than us, not by much, but by a distance. I think you would like them, we are trying to start a band!"

"Ash that's awesome! This has been your dream for like, forever!" Stella giggled with Ashton.

Ashton was, once again, rambling about his newfound friends. Although Stella was happy for him, she couldn't help but think that they would end up replacing her.

"I'm so excited! I want you to meet them. We have a rehearsal tomorrow for a cover we are posting and I want you to come. Will you?" He gave his pleading eyes that no one could resist. Stella nodded in response, flashing a quick smile.

Feeling the aching feeling of over sleeping, Stella dragged herself to the shower to relax her muscles.

"I'm supposed to meet Ashton at 4 and it's 12. That gives me no time, what if the boys are cute and i look terrible?" Stella rambled to herself in the shower, which was a recurring thing. She brushed the thoughts away and continued to do her daily things.

She danced in the mirror while doing her hair and makeup trying to get the nerves away.

Before she knew it, she was giving her moms quick kisses on the cheeks and running out the door to Anne-Marie's car that Ashton was borrowing.

"You look rather beautiful Stella."

"Why thank you Ashton, i would say you look rather handsome." Ashton was wearing this weird purple shirt, although to Stella he always looked handsome. Stella was nervous, she wanted her bestfriend's other friends to like her. If they didn't, that means less time with Ashton.

Ashton was also a nervous wreck, if his friends didn't enjoy each others company he might have a breakdown.

The two masked their concerns and chatted with the sound of the radio playing in the background.

"Do you think your friends will like me?" Stella asked looking up at Ashton.

"Stella they will love you. Just be yourself, I love you so why would they not?" Ashton asked Stella.

"Well you're my bestfriend and if you're trying to start a band with these guys then obviously you're going to be around them a lot. If they don't like me then that means less time with you. I can't go from seeing you everyday to not seeing you at all." Stella had habit of working herself up for no reason; small things just got to her.

"We haven't even got to the house yet, Stell. Don't put yourself into panic mode." Ashton thought that Stella's overreaction was quite adorable. He knows that he could never not spend at least a few days out of the week with her. She was what kept him grounded.

As they pulled up to a house that Ashton told her belonged to Luke, she instantly felt more nervous. Her palms felt sweaty and her heart felt in her stomach. Ashton grabbed her hand and squeezed it, knowing she was going to need that. Ashton knocked on the door and then heard lots of feet running to the door. After the wooden door flew open, three boys stood behind it.

"Ashton!" They all yelled and they pulled him into a hug.

"Ashton, what the hell are you wearing?" The boy with long fringe asked him.

"What? What's wrong with what I'm wearing?" Ashton questioned back looking at his outfit.

"Mate, your purple shirt is terrible," the tanned boy spoke. He looked over at Stella, "How did you let him leave the house like this?" He laughed while pointing to Ashton. Stella only shook her head and laughed in response. "Hi, I am Calum. This is Michael and Luke. You must be Stella." Calum gave you a warm smile.

"Hi! Yeah, I'm Stella." Stella looked at the boys to remember the faces and the names. "Luke looks cute. He's got pretty blue eyes." Stella thought to herself.
