PLEASE READ
Hey everyone! I am truly sorry that I haven't done an update in so long please don't hate me that this chapter will be a horrible one. Over spring break I decided to take a break from writing so that when I do write again I'll have new ideas on the table.
Aside letting you know that I took a nice long break my idea's have come to surface and this book will be finished maybe by the end of August, or even before that if I have a lot of time. There will be three other books after this. Two of them will just be a fun little thing I think you all will enjoy and hold you together. The actual sequel is going to be really good and I'm so excited!
The reason as to why the process is taking so long is because I have other fanfics that I would like to write but I can't do so until this one is finished so I've been working on the outlines of them.
The next chapter will be a much better one so bare with me. This one is not edited so I'm sorry. Thank you.

"Hey, Em, I was thinking we should go shopping for Christmas presents today." Maggie looks over at me on the couch.
"Should we invite the guys?"
"No, they would to anything to get a peek at what we get them."
"True." I nod. "Wanna go now while they are doing interviews?"
"Yeah, you wanna drive?"
"Duh." She tosses me the keys and were out the door. Once in the car we sit there for a second.
"You need directions to the nearest mall don't you?"
"Maybe." I tap my finger waiting to the phone to tell me where to go. Maggie chuckled next to me. Once the navigation system started talking, I drive off.
We park as close as we can to the entrance of the mall and walk into the first store we see because it's a men's store.
"They could use a few nice shirts." I shrug looking at Maggie.
"Luke has nice shirts, we can thank Liz for that. Yeah, Calum and Michael probably need them the most."
So we buy two nice shirts for each of them. We walk past the tie section and decide that I will get a tie for Michael and Ashton and she will take care if Luke and Calum. That's all we get from that store, there wasn't much else that would spark any interest. The next store we go into is Forever 21. We haven't forget about the girls back home!
"I want a whole crap tun of these clothes for myself." I groan.
"Then let me buy you some and then you an just act surprised." Maggie suggests.
"No I'd rather be surprised. Let's split up so that we can get each other things along with the others and I'll meet you back at the car.
"Alright, what time?"
"Just text me when your done." I shrug, she nods and I go pay for the things in my hand before heading to another store. Hot topic is the place where I'll be getting Maggie's gifts. It's too easy to find the perfect gifts for her. A black hoodie with lace sleeves, black lip stick, band brackets (My Chemical Romance and All Time Low), and a black beanie should be enough to get her.
For Tana I get some cute clothes (dresses and skirts), some earrings and perfume.
For Alia and Rachel I get them matching bracelets, crop tops and hair dye.
For Gege I get her nail polish, bows and flowers for her hair and a dress.
I get all the guys different colognes, and I buy a pother frame because I have a picture of all of us together and we all look happy. So this gift will be to all of then. I also just get them a whole bunch of silly useful things that they can have fun with.
Once I'm don't getting everyone's gifts, I start to head back to the car because Maggie hasn't texted me yet. But I pass a hair salon and can't resist the temptation of going I'm.
"Good afternoon, what can I do for you today?" The lady at the desk asks me. Thinking about what I want I tell her I what to cut my hair short and dye it dark green for Christmas. She tells me I'll have to wait about five minutes to prep a seat for me, so I text Maggie and tell her where I am.
I've had long hair for a really long time and I feel like it's time to change it up more than just dyeing it.
"I see you've been dyeing your hair for a while now." The lady, Reagan says. "Let's watch your hair, cut it, bleach it, dye it, and then you will be good to go."
Maggie enters the salon when I'm getting my hair washed. "What do you plan on doing with it!" She's asks.
"You'll see." I give her a smirk because I know she's going to be shocked at the hair being cut.
"I'll text Luke and tell him where we're at so they don't worry about it."
"Thanks."
When Reagan is done watching my hair she sits me down in a new chair and grabs the scissors.
"NO!" Maggie yelps and looks at me with great big eyes.
"How long do you want it?" Reagan asks.
"Shoulder length."
"But why!?" Maggie gasps, I'm chucking at her now.
"I want to my hair up but this time not just dye it."
"But it's going to be so short." She pouts.
"It seems that way but once it's done it won't be a big deal." I shrug it off as Reagan starts to cut.
Once everything was done and my hair was dry I looked at my new self in the mirror.
"Your right, you look great!" Maggie gives me a thumbs up. I pay Reagan and we leave with all the bags in our hands.
"Everyone is going to freak when they see." I tell her.
"Get it on video so you can post it for your next YouTube video"
"Oh your right, that's a good idea." I take out my phone and hand it too her. "Start filming so I can tell then about the hair.
"Okay...go."
"So I just got out of he mall with a new hair style, as you can see. I felt like I needed something new other than just a new dye job so cutting it was the option I chose, and I have to say I look pretty darn good." I wink at the camera. "So the boys have no idea that I did this, neither does Tana actually. Maggie is the one holding the camera right now."
"Hi!" Maggie says.
"So yeah we expect everyone to be there when we get to the house and we are going to film the reactions." Maggie stops filming and we giggle a little.
"So did you talk to Ashton about getting a puppy?"
"It hasn't come up yet."
"Wimp."
"Thanks." I smile sarcastically. "So what did you get Luke?"
"I got him a hair product that makes his hair more curly, he said he wanted to start doing that."
"Curly hair Luke might kill half the populations of fangirl." I shake my head.
"Probably way more that than that. And he is the death of me everyday so I guess I'll find a way to control the feels."
"Or don't...your the only one that's able to kiss him...I mean besides Liz."
"Oh my god, Liz texted me the other day because Luke wasn't answering his phone and she said to tell him that she's going to let him have it next time she sees him." Maggie bursts into a fit of laughter, which makes me laugh ask is because her laugh is quite contagious.
"Is she coming here for Christmas?"
"No, she's staying with the rest of the family this year. I think Calum's mum is coming over, same with Michael."
"Karen!?"
"Yeah...ohhhhh that's right nobody else knows you guys are dating."
"It's getting more and more stressful everyday." I groan.
"You can always just tell Ashton."
"I tried that but before I could say anything, he kept getting disgraced so I figured fate says no."
"Then don't...just don't let it end badly."
"How would it end badly?" She shrugs "I don't think Michael and I will break up anytime soon Mag, we've been going strong for a while now."
"Just looking out for you, that's all." We pull up to the house, leaving everything in he car so that the guys don't see anything they're not supposed to.
"We'er home!" I shout slamming the door behind me.
A faint hello comes from up stairs so we follow it to Calum's room, who's on FaceTime with Tana. Calum doesn't say anything about the hair, but when Tana sees me she gasps.
"WHY DID YOU CUT IT!?"
"I felt like I needed something new."
"Well it looks hella good, I must say."
"Thanks." I giggle.
"How is everything back at home?" Maggie asks.
"Boring, I wish I was with you guys so badly."
"Not as mush as me." Calum pouts.
"I miss you guys so much." Tana sighs.
"We miss you too, we'll be home before you know it."
"And with presents." Maggie says.
"Can't wait!"
"Hey, where are the others?" I ask Calum.
"The pool."
"Okay thanks." Maggie and I walk out leaving Calum and Tana to have their moment. We make our way ousted to the pool and everyone's eyes turn to us. Everyone looks shocked to see my new look.
"Holy crap!" Luke is the first.
"Do you guys like it?"
"You look great in any hairstyle." Michael winks at me, Ashton doesn't notice.
"Why green?" Ashton asks.
"Because Michael has the red for Christmas and I'll have the green."
"Seems logical." Luke says. "So what did you guys get me?"
"You know we can't tell you. Maggie shakes her head.
"I'll act surprised." He pouts.
"Nice try." Maggie and I say at the same time.
"So Christmas dinner, who's coming?" I ask Ashton.
"The mums, except for Liz and my family."
"So Karen and Joy?"
"Along with the men." He nods.
"Alright, I'm going to go get my bathing suit on, be back in a few."
