"That's awesome, well I have to go. I'll test you later, bye love. xx"

Me

"Ok, bye :)."

I ran downstairs and saw Ashlin waiting for me. I was wearing a yellow plaid button up that rolled up to mid elbow, black undershirt, some pink jean-shorts, and green converse. I just let my hair do whatever and I had no makeup on. We ended up meeting them at Starbucks, there was a man there wearing a suit and a woman standing next to him. The man stood up once we entered, "Hi, my name's Scooter and this is Patricia. You must be Ashlin, I spoke on the phone with you earlier. Who is this lovely young lady?" he asked gesturing to me.

"My name's Darby, it's nice to meet you." I said shaking his hand.

"I heard what happend to you, I'm sorry." he said.

"It's fine, it was in the past. I'm a lot better now."

"Well good, now let's talk business. We would like to sign you to our label, but you will be on the road a lot. Would you be fine with that?" he asked. We shook our heads. "You will also need to start writing some songs, we have seen what you can do. We just need something new and fresh, something no one's heard before."

"That's fine, we actually have a whole bunch of songs that no one has ever heard." Ashlin said.

"Great, that's pretty much everything. Now just sign this, and you'll be apart of this big happy family." he said, getting out some papers. I took them and started reading.

"Sorry, I just like to know what I'm signing." I said looking at him. I skimmed through the whole thing and there was nothing bad that caught my eye. "Ok, we'll sign." I said. I took a pen out of my pocket and signed the document then Ashlin signed.

"Welcome to the family." he said. "We're going to have to fly you both to America so we can start recording. Pack up everything that you'll need, you can leave some stuff at your house. We'll be there to pick you up around 2 pm ok?"

"Perfect, and thank you so much. We won't let you down." I answered as we walked out. We got in the car and I drove home. I sent a mass text to the boys.

Me

"Hey, we just signed the papers, but we have to fly to America. We wanted to have a little party at my house. It starts at 9 tonight. I'll see you there :)"

Once Ashlin and I got home we started packing. It only took me about an hour to finish. I just packed all my clothes, my teddy bears, my jewelry, a pillow, my guitar with all my picks, and my journals/songbooks.

I walked into Ashlin's room and she had stuff everywhere. "Having problems?" I chuckled.

"I don't know what to bring." she answered.

"Just pack all on your clothes first, then if there's any room left pack up stuff that you 'want' to bring. Here let me help." I went over to her and started helping. It only took a half hour for us to get done with hers. We were done and packed then I heard a knock on the door. I went downstairs and opens the door, all of the boys came rushing in. They gave me a group hug, it made me wince in pain. One of their hands was on my wound that was on my hip, I didn't let them notice it though. Then Ashlin came down and they hugged her too.

I turned up some loud music and we started dancing and having a ball. I tried not to dance too hard because of my hip.

Louis' POV

She looked stunning, I was going to miss her so much when she left. I didn't want either of them to leave, I was friends with both Ashlin and Darby. With Darby I wanted to be more than friends, but I knew that was probably never going to happen. She probably has someone else in mind other than me.

Darby's POV

I was happy to finally see the boys, I missed them so much. After about two hours of nonstop dancing, we settled down and we all piled in my bed, they left a small spot in the middle of them all for me. I put in "The Christmas Story" which is one of my favorite movies ever I couldn't believe the boys had never seen it before. "Well this is set up in Indiana, where Ashlin and I are from. It is kinda dumb, but good at the same time" I said putting it in.

We finished the movie, "Is everyone in Indiana like that?" Liam asked.

"They were like that a long time ago, now we are like everyone here." I admitted. "The only difference is we have country accents and we drive big trucks." I laughed.

"Sounds like an interesting place, I can't wait to never go there." Harry laughed. I had to admit, I never liked Indiana. Some people there were rude and I didn't care much for anything.

"Well we had better get going, we'll be back before you leave for your flight ok?" Liam said. Ashlin and I nodded our heads and and they walked out, hugging us both in the process.

"Well we had better get to sleep, I'll wake you up in the morning ok. Night, love you." I said as she went to her room.

"Ok, love ya too." she yelled before she shut her door.

I laid on my bed and got on twitter, people were freaking out because I DM'd them all back. Then I saw pictures that people posted on instagram of the letters I sent them. I didn't know why, I am just a normal person. I put my phone on the charger and went to sleep.
