(C)Ash.

Freshman student in college, Emma Woodcox, is an eighteen year old living in an apartment with her aunt, the CEO, and uncle, the lead singer of Everlast. She has just dealt with a recent breakup and clearly isn't ready to start again dating, that is, until her eyes meet Julien, her old best friend, at Starbucks and she gets an invitation to meet the boys of her uncle's band, Everlast, eying one of the band members, Ashton who happens to be the drummer and the compromiser keeping the band together.

Stuck in a circle of guys and a chance to get over being possessed by a stuck up jerk who has nothing more to do than hit her and mess around with other girls, Emma is playing cat and mouse and all she can do is wait for the one that's true.

A story about finding yourself, possession, searching for the right guy, teamwork and getting lost for no reason at all.

Stevie Rogers knew she'd been cursed the day she met an 8 year old Ashton Irwin after he pushed her out of a tree and broke her arm. Even now, more than ten years later, he still mostly made her life… difficult, despite their friendship. He got her into trouble regularly, and frequently embarrassed her over not-so-secret crush on his band mate.

He was annoying, but he was her best friend and no matter what she said, she wouldn't change him for anything.

Well, except for Justin Timberlake, but hey – a girl has needs.

Of course, finding out his secret changed things between them. It made Stevie see him in an entirely different way, and she ended up learning the hard way that one mistake had the potential to ruin a friendship forever.

Lydia Parker was in a situation that a lot of girls would love to be.

The slightly dysfunctional flirtationship she'd managed to develop with Luke Hemmings and Calum Hood had been going on for quite a few weeks and so far, neither of them seemed to have a problem with it. It was all in good fun, after all.

That is, until, they give her an ultimatum.

They both have feelings for her and they can't carry on the way they are.

They'd both done a fantastic job at hiding these so-called feelings, and an even better job at acting like it wasn't effecting their friendship. But it was - a simple phone call to Ashton was enough to confirm that.

Lydia felt sick, but she had no other option. She was going to have to choose between the two boys who meant the most to her in the whole world.

And she had no idea what her decision was going to be.

Luke Hemmings had it all.

He was (almost) 18 years old, relatively popular, he had good grades, good friends and the seemingly perfect family. For him, life couldn't get any better.

He was about to find out it could get a hell of a lot worse, though, when he discovers his father has a secret (almost) 19 year old son who had to come and live with them.

Luke didn't want him there – this was his life, his family, his friends. He didn't want, nor need, some screwed up illegitimate child coming in and fucking everything up, but he wasn't left with a choice.

He knew Ashton Irwin was going to come in and ruin his life, and there was no way in hell that Luke was going to let that happen.

AU in which Luke is a spoilt rich boy and Ashton is his quiet, brooding older half-brother who he didn't know existed.

Rosa Bagni has been sheltered in Southern Italy for the first eighteen years of her life. She grew up playing in her back yard, reading books, and watching every Disney movie to have ever been released. Of course, she never grew out of the Fairy Tale phase most little girls go through. When she was eighteen, she moved out and somehow ended up in Sydney, Australia, working in a cute little bookstore below her apartment. 

Two years later and she gets a phone call from her mom. They're expecting her to have a husband, move back home, have children and become a house wife. So she's got to find a husband, and quick. It's not working out so well till the one and only Michael Clifford walks out of the rain and into her tiny bookstore. 

A story about pop punk music, birthday cake flavored ice cream, gender roles, 

and learning to do things for yourself.

All I remembered about Ashton Irwin from high school was the fact that he was an asbolutely irritating know-it-all, the cleanest, most put together teenage boy I'd ever seen, and came from a rich family.



How he went from that well-rounded good kid to this pissy, hobo-looking, fag smoking, almost alcoholic twenty-year-old is beyond me, all I knew is that I'd agreed to go on a cross country road trip with him.

Sitting in a dingy bar in an unfamiliar city at close to midnight, Luke Hemmings had never expected to meet a girl who had the potential to change his whole outlook on life.

Similarly, when she'd walked into her favourite little hideaway for what had to have been the fifth time that week, Scout Thompson had never expected to meet a guy who was going to make her see that maybe her life wasn't as bad as the thought.

Both of them were lonely, drunk, and slightly dependant people who really couldn't give a shit about them.

But they had one night.

One night away from all of it, one night when they were just two strangers having a few drinks together.

And they were going to make it count for everything.

What would you do if you woke up one day and everyone over the age of 21 was gone

Alexandra Hemmings thought her parents had gone out when she woke up that fated Saturday morning. Everything was completely normal, her young brother, Luke, certainly didn't think much of it. It wasn't until Alexandra stepped out of the house that she started noticing something was off. The neighborhood was too silent, the streets too empty, and the mailman nowhere in sight.

What would you do if you woke up one day and the world wasn't the same?

No one knows what happened or how it happened. As time goes by the questions and priorities change; some will want power, a few will not care, and others will do unimaginable things in absolute desperation to survive this new lawless world.

What happens after you turn 21?

A story about runaways, road trips, and reckless abandon.
(Minimal summary under construction, any ideas?)

The one rule set in place for 5 Seconds of Summer when touring the world as a band (besides the obvious "don't eat the secret stash of cookies in Michael's bunk"): Respect the crew.

Yeah, well, 5 Seconds of Summer seem to have missed the memo.
Their road crew (aka the roadies) were known to the aforementioned band as "the little people" and have been putting up with their antics for a long time, but when one incident crosses the line, they declare war. A prank war, that is.

Though it may seem childish, things start taking a dangerous turn when roadies get fired, one ends in the hospital, and Michael's cookie stash mysteriously goes missing (seriously, he's out for blood).

Meanwhile, merch girl and youngest roadie Wisteria "Wish" Astin is finding herself tangled up in some sort of taboo secret sexlationship with Calum Hood and is stopping both everyone else from finding out and murdering them, and herself from falling for the bassist, who- imagine this- doesn't seem so bad after all.

Basically, everybody is royally screwed.

A tale of questioning authority, finding love in shady places, (un)locked doors, and learning the meaning of respect.

Luke Hemmings and Chloe Jamison have been friends forever. They go together like ice cream and summer, asphalt and scraped knees, homework and headaches. They’ve been best friends for so long that no one can remember a time when they couldn’t be found racing up trees or jumping into pools in tandem. They’ve always been best, best friends, even when they were too young to understand what friendship truly was.

(Or, five times Luke Hemmings told Chloe Jamison he loved her, and one time she said it back.)

Michael really didn't want to go to England.

He didn't want to stay with his snobby cousins, he didn't want to be away from his band mates for half a year and he definetley didn't want to go to his Aunt's stupid wedding.

But in order to keep his family happy, he put on a fake smile and tried to act as if he didn't want to jump onto the next flight back to Sydney.

However, in the midst of Michael's internal hatred for the UK, a beautiful plot twist called Lori Phillips manages to clamber her way into his life, and eventually his heart.

But with less than five months left until the Clifford's have to head home, Michael realizes that going back no longer sounds like a good idea.



An AU where Luke can't stop skyping Michael, Ashton is in the middle of an existential crisis at the age of 20, Calum is getting unwanted male attention and Michael somehow falls in love.
