"Okay, so our we planning the music video next Monday?" Ed Sheeran asked Liam and Zayn.
"If the Aussie boys are available and we don't have our tour yet, that will be the best time for it."
"So... Do you guys know what's going on exactly?" Zayn mumbled.
Both the brunette's and redhead's eyes widened. "I believed the girls were on it."
"No, the girls have been busy with a battle of the bands and uni--" before he could finish his sentence Niall entered the bright lit living room.
"Wut's up, lads?" The blonde one chanted as he jumped right next to Zayn on the couch.
"We're chatting about the music video," Ed replied.
"So Zayn, how are the girls doing?" Niall mocked him.
Zayn glanced up at his buddy and murmured, "Shut up!"
"What's going on?" Both Liam and Ed asked at the same time.
Niall began to inform them instantly. "My man here has been chatting with the girls and their cousin."
Zayn shoved the pillow at Niall. The Irish dude began to laugh hysterically while he said, " Zai heeer..." he stopped to laugh and continued, "read Alex's bynder and foun her cuntact namber..." He continued to laugh. The three felt that Niall had a little too many drinks for dinner.
"So the girls know about this?" Ed eyed at Zayn now that Niall had it under control.
"Yeah, I've been conferring with Alex, Lesley, Vanessa and Stephanie."
"Great job, Zayn!" Ed congratulated and patted him on the back. "Well, I have to get going but I will definitely see you all next Monday. Cheers!"
The three waved goodbye at the redhead. Then they retreated to their usual gathering at the living room.
"So where exactly is Louis and Harry?" Liam remarked when he noticed the two empty spots in the room.
"Louis is asking Eleanor to be in the music video," Zayn responded. When he was about to report that Harry was with Vanessa, Liam stood up, crossed his arms and questioned him, "Since when are you involved with the girls?"
"Why does it concern you?" Zayn said as he got up to leave.
Liam couldn't think of a good answer, so he sneered, "Aren't you going to ask Perrie to be in the video?"
When Zayn didn't respond Liam stilted his head and asked, "What happened to Perrie and you?"
"Do I really need to tell you," the dark brunette began to reply in a harsh tone.
"Of course, we're buddies here." Liam observed Zayn hesitate, now standing at the front door.
"Well, you haven't called her, only your mum and sisters," Niall added.
When Zayn turned around his eyebrows were scrunched. Niall slowly glanced at Liam, who then met his eyes; Niall shrugged at him. Liam shook his head and said, "What happened, Zayn?"
Zayn began to fret the zipper of his leather jacket and continued to look at the window and the couch. "Well, uh... Perrie and I ended our engagement."
"Oh, go--" Niall took a deep breath and covered his mouth before making the situation far worse than it already was.
"Wut? How could you!" Liam yelled as he brushed his hair. He then took a step closer to Zayn and remembered Sophia. He stepped back and waited what his friend was going to say.
"We haven't seen each other since my birthday. I called her to come over for a bit but she was touring. Then we had a fight, which caused her absence at wedding. I told you to not leave Stephanie because I know how it feels like..."
Liam scrutinized his eyes at him. Zayn returned his gaze at both men, first on Niall and then on Liam. "Forget about Stephanie, Liam. You lost her, she be kind to be your friend but nothing else.
Throughout those tough seconds Niall had to stop breathing; he didn't want to set of two volcanos in one island.
However, a sudden miracle arrived to stopped the eruption. Both Harry and Louis stepped into the hotel room chuckling over something they were conversing in their double date with their ladies. At that moment Zayn announced, "The music video is next Monday," and left the room. The two man at the door abruptly stopped laughing and eyed at Liam and Niall.
The blonde said, "Yeah, video this Monday," and left too. Liam paced back to where the couches where and stood to view the cars outside his window. Before excusing himself to his room, he revealed more news to his two friends. "The next wedding is official off."

Monday, April 7, 2:30 PM
The past weekend flew by like a second. Last Saturday, like always, the girls performed at the local coffee shop, Retrouvailles. They remembered how pack the venue was that day that they decided to call Alexia to find a solution. She explained to them that she will call them after their late lunch with Jee Sun.
Now that they returned to their studies and finished with the day's lectures, they were on their way to eat a small dinner with Jee Sun. When the three cousins stepped into a vintage 1920s restaurant the girls turned some heads around. Some of the diners heard the university band was as admired as Common Colors. As the brunettes walked further into the restaurant some people started to whisper, while others held their phones and waved at the girls. Some of them applauded at their composure since they shockingly lost at London's Battle of the Bands.
When the girls saw their assigned table they greeted their peer, whom was the designer of My Summers Sensation's new album: XIV. The three cousins sat at the remaining three sides of the square table. It was finally time to see the final touch of their album.
"Hello ladies," Jee Sun saluted.
"Hi!" The three girls greeted.
"How are you?" Lesley asked.
"I feel great to finally present the art cover for your album!" She revealed as she unfolded the thin paper that covered the photograph.
"Here you go," Jee Sun carefully passed the image of XIV's cover. Lesley was the first to held it. The first thing she noticed was that the hues ranged from black to gray to white. In the image, the three brunettes stood together with their instruments by the stream. However, the shot was edited where their noses and above were not shown. More than that, the light from the gleaming rays of that morning, which was a salmon hue, remained unedited in the image. The name of the band was written in a bold calligraphy font at the bottom of the photo.
"The edit means the way your music will make the listener feel: Alive and cared about. But I wanted to make it mysterious, so that's why I didn't show faces. I hope you don't mind," Jee Sun justified.
Lesley began to breath heavily and passed it down to Stephanie. She pointed the image at Vanessa and Vanessa began to fret on her seat because she wanted to hold it for at least a second before it was returned to the artist. The three began to think that the cover made their heart pump, as if it was a poster with the signatures of their favorite singer.
"Thank you!" The girls said when Jee Sun wrapped the photo away. All four of them chatted some more of how the booklet will be organized while they ate. Once they finished Jee saluted them goodbye and the girls were ready to call Alexia about where the music video will be.
"Hello, hello, hello!" Alexia cried from the speaker phone. The three were so close to falling from their chairs but gripped onto their chairs. "You three should head out to the large park outside uni. By the time you get there someone will be waiting for you. Okay? Anyway the boys have arrived, so hurry up! See ya!"
The girls stared at each other because the girl at the other end of the call didn't let them talk. The three followed the steps for the night.
