"Jess, what dress shall I wear?" I shouted into the next room, one dress in each hand. "That one!" she pointed to the one on my right, a short-ish simple black dress with some details up the top.... I showered quickly before sliding the dress on, putting on some heels and a necklace, and leaving my hair for Jess to sort out whilst I done my make up. I looked up in the mirror as Jess was curling my hair loosely, her already looking gorgeous as she'd been getting ready for hours already. I kept my make up natural with just enough foundation and concealer, mascara, eye liner and red lipstick to finish the look.

"Ready for our last night in Ibizaaaaa?" I shouted not realising how high my voice had gone, getting a slightly weird look from Jess, my best friend. Yep that's right, me and her, in Ibiza..... My names Ashley, 22 years old... as is Jess. Average height, long blonde hair, blue eyes, nothing special. Me and Jess have been friends for the last few years, since Uni, so 4 years now. We've been best friends since and tell each other everything, we both come from different backgrounds yet get on amazingly. Anyway, we're both from around Peterborough, I've moved around the country a bit but always ended up back home. Now though, me and Jess were moving to London, flat mates I guess? Sharing a flat seeing as it would be a lot cheaper and a bit of fun, would never be bored. Tomorrow we were coming home to England, landing in London and driving to our new flat where everything we need should be there, thanks to our families!

Tonight we were out on the town, celebrate the last night out here after a week of partying, sun bathing and drinking, as well as the new start in London. "This one?" Jess asked as we neared a club which had very loud music, a lot of people and what looked like a good atmosphere, "sounds good" I smiled as we headed inside. We ordered our drinks at the bar and found a small table, this is how it always began..... Then as soon as a song we loved came on, that was it, wouldn't be off the dance floor for the rest of the night.

"ASHHHH!!!!" Jess pulled me up to dance as Tinie Tempah's hit "Pass Out" blast through the club, and everyone went mad. Song after song we'd end up dancing non stop, and drink after drink... Knowing we'd have a bad hangover tomorrow, but that's part of the fun, eh? 

"Got your eye on anyone then?" I laughed above the music looking around, "Hmmm, he's nice" she muttered as I turned around to look.... wait.... Had to take a double look..... Aston? I was close friends with Aston Merrygold, from JLS when younger, then he moved away to work in the band and we lost contact. Jess not really up to date with boy bands obviously hadn't realised it was him... "What is it Ash?" she looked at me wondering why I was just stood staring. I guess I was in shock, its not every day you come across one of your close childhood friends, especially when you haven't seen them in 5 years.... "Oh, nothing" I turned back round not knowing whether to approach him or not.... He was famous now, would he remember me?
