Luke drives home and he plays green day the whole way home. I smile as he sings along. When we get home I sigh as I see Ashton,I walk up to the porch and he stands up walking over to me. "Can we talk?" He asks and I nod,we walk inside and people jump up and scream 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY!' I flinch a little and Ashton hugs me.

"I lied to you because I was planning this,thats why Luke took you somewhere,here I got you this" he grabs a red wrapped box from the table of gifts. I sit in the love seat and open it and see a little kitten inside. "OH MY GOD!" I scream 'meow' it whines I take it out the box.

It was a gray and white kitty with sparkling blue eyes,"meow" it whines more,"I can be a big ass pussy some times so I gave you something that's a bigger pussy" he smiles and I chuckle "Ashton that made no sense but thank you" I set the cat down and I hug Ashton.

"I'm gonna go put her up" I say "how do you know it's a girl?" he asks "cause you left the card in there that says Female" I say and he nods and I walk away to go upstairs and see that on my bed was a bag of cat food,cat litter, litter box,food bowl,and a pink stud collar.

I set her on the bed and see a note on the food bag, the front of it had my name written in cursive. I peel it off and open the envelope.

Dear Rosey

I know we aren't on the best of terms but I bought all this stuff for you cause Ashton was a lazy bum to buy it for you. I hope you will like me and forgive me on all my mistakes and I hope we can be friends.

-Calum

I smile at his note,"meow" I look over and see her playing with a little mouse,"what am I gonna name you" I say grabbing the mouse dangling it in the air.

"Name it Cal" I look over and see Calum in the doorway leaning on my doorframe. "ok" I say sarcastically. "I'm gonna name it London" I say "why?" "Cause of London Tipton" "who" "oh yeah I forgot you're Australian" I joke,I put the collar around her tiny neck and she climbs on my lap,and curls up into a tiny ball.

"I picked her out but Ashton bought her" he shrugs

"thanks" I smile and set her in the crease of my two pillows and she starts needing the pillow.

"You know that you were supposed to buy her cat milk,she's too young for food" I say and his eyes widen "asswipe" he whispers "what?" "sorry Ashton's a retarded"

I smile and hug him,"thank you,you're almost there" I say letting go walking past him going downstairs seeing people I didn't even know.

I walk to the kitchen and see that Ashton was talking to Megan. I walk over to where Luke was,"we need to talk" I say pulling him away from everyone. "what's up?" "ok I know that this is way to late for me to ask but...are you still In a relationship?" he tilts his head. "I was...we broke up" he says taking a swig of his beer.

"Oh well I remembered Michael saying something about it -"

"It's okay" he says kissing my forehead,"Happy Birthday" he smiles and walks away. I sit down and sigh,"what's wrong?" I look up and see Carlie. "Luke" "spill" she says and sits next to me and looks at me. "well the night we kissed,I didn't feel anything and he did. I don't know how to tell him because I don't want to hurt his feelings" I say "I mean he's so sweet but he's not good enough for me he deserves better" I say an she nods.

"Just tell him the truth,if he gets butt hurt about it than forget him" she says and sips on her beer. "thanks" she smiles and gets up. I sigh and walk to the kitchen and grab a beer. "you know you aren't supposed to drink that" I look over and see Calum. "ok yeah say that to yourself" "Im Aussie I only have to be 18" he says grabbing my bottle. "We'll this is the USA bitch,its my birthday give it" he uses his advantage of being super tall and holds it above his head.

I smirk and kick him in his shin, he bends down in pain and I grab the bottle. "thanks" I smile and walk past him. I go over to Luke and grab him again,"What Rose" He groans. "we need to talk,again"
