Zoe's POV

One day before Autumn's wedding is her birthday. That would be today.

I walk in my front door and find Autumn and Luke snoozing on the couch, cuddling-and drooling. I roll my eyes. They must've made up I see. And by the look of the hickey on Autumn's neck, made out, too. I guess I should be more irked about Luke-my brother-dating Autumn-my best friend-but honestly I'm not. She's already like family to me, practically a sister to me even, and one day she might even actually be my sister (in law), seeing as she doesn't often change her mind and Luke seems pretty set on keeping her. I'm happy for them. Sure, it reminds me of how lonely I am but it's fine, who needs a love interest anyways? It's overrated, "love" that is.

Back to the task at hand, I've planned a surprise birthday party for Autumn, seeing that it's her eighteenth birthday, meaning it's pretty important. I know how much she likes dancing, and I know how much she likes neon decorations, so I plan to deck out the whole house with neon lights and decorations, and in the meantime, have Luke take her out for the day to get her out of the house. It's going to be awesome-It's got to be awesome. She's going to love it, I know so. Oh, and, I invited Luke's fellow band members over, because everyone knows they know how to party. Yeah they're a bit wild and sometimes dorky, but it's been awhile since a get together, seeing as they're on break and in different colleges already. I'm sure it's going to be awesome.

First, I wake Luke up and tell him to get Autumn up soon, and that I'm leaving to go pick up party suplies and decorations and then pick up the boys and decorate. I tell him the plan and that he needs to keep Autumn busy all day somewhere not at our house while I prepare her-perfectly planned-birthday party. He agrees, quietly not to wake up Autumn, and I leave for the store.

On my way there, I get a call from one of the boys-Ashton. I pick up almost immediately. "Hey ash, what's up?"

"Pick me and Calum up before you go shopping. We want to come, we have some cool party decor ideas!" He exclaims.

"Alright what about Michael?"

"He's busy trying to look his best, trying to perfect his hair apparently."

I laugh and agree, then hang up and change route to their apartment.
