A/N: I'm back bitches – A. Hey guys. So know it has been like a year. HOLY SHIT. That is a long time. Anyways, this is the sequel. A few things you need to know:

This fic is based three years later, making Aria 18.

It is mainly based around her and her relationships with the other cast members like Emilie, Bex, Lana and of course her parents.

She has an apprenticeship, as she has left high school now.

These will be a series of one shots that follow a timeline.

I am looking for a Beta reader, so if anyone is interested, let me know :D

Well that's about all I can think of, so jump right in.

Birthday Girl Part 1:

Aria's POV:

My alarm came back on, blasting "I'm So Sorry" by Imagine Dragons, for the second time this morning and once again, I rolled over onto my side and turned it off. Strangely enough, I still loved the song, even though it was the cursed thing that woke me from my beloved sleep. I had changed very much from the morning person I was three years ago. I had gotten used to never worrying about being woken up in the middle of the night, now and had a very comfy bed, which was a very large contributing factor as to why I do not want to leave bed right now.

"Aria." My adorable younger sister pushed open the door and peered round the door. "Daddy said you have to get up." She informed me in her adorable tired voice.

"Don't you want to come snuggle with me for five minutes and we can go for a little map." I tried to convince the toddler. It was working as well, because she ran towards my open arms and reached up to me.

"Come on then, Bells." I lifted her into my bed and moved my arms around her small frame.

"So easily convinced to join the dark side Bella, just like your mother with her sleep." Josh walked in. "Come on you two. Up." He yanked the covers from us."

"Daaaaaddddd" Bella complained as he picked her up and reached out his hand to me. When I took it, he pulled me to my feet and into his arms.

"Happy Birthday Darling." He smiled and kissed me on my forehead.

"You know I actually forgot." I laughed and headed towards the bathroom.

I got myself ready for the day, showering and getting changed into my usual outfit of jeans and baggy top. This time I wore my 'Smoke and Mirror's' Imagine Dragons tour tee, my black skinny jeans and my cute fluffy ankle boots. I brushed through my hair and put it up in a messy ponytail. When I finally got to the front room of the hotel room, I saw Ginny still in her sleep clothes, moving towards the coffee. Some things never change, I laughed in my head. I grabbed a croissant for breakfast and sat on the sofa with Bella, who was now changed into her day clothes.

Ginny came in with her coffee and gave me an enthusiastic hug and wished me a massive 'Happy Birthday.'

"We'll show you your main present once I'm dressed. For now, Josh's getting the rest of them and you can open them when we get to set, which is in about twenty minutes. We're going earlier, so you won't have to get straight to work and everyone can give you their gifts." Ginny quickly explained before going to get ready.

"I'll help you mummy." Bells called after her and toddled after her mum, concentrating on not falling over. That was a huge issue for her, she was a huge klutz, just like Ginny.

When we got downstairs, Josh was already waiting, right next to a yellow beetle, with a massive bow on it. He tossed me a set of keys and smiled at me. NO WAY! NO FUCKING WAY. THEY GOT ME A CAR. OH MY GOD.

"Aria, you alright?" Ginny asked, her voice full of concern.

"Hmm, yeah." I replied, still not over the fact that I'VE GOT A CAR! "Guys I don't know what to say. It's too much. You knew I wanted one. I LOVE IT!" I was almost in tears at how much they cared. After all this time, I still hadn't quite gotten over that they loved me.

"Of course we knew. What do you say? You wanna drive there and we'll meet you there." Josh asked. I gave them both a bone crushing hug and showed my thanks, as sincerely as I could.

"You better get going missy. We'll meet you in the common room, with everyone else." Ginny told me.

It didn't take too long to get to the set from the hotel. They were filming on the streets today, so I grabbed my coat before we left, knowing I would be running around in the cold, doing errands. That's my job. I loved working on set, it meant that I could hang out with my friends and get into the career I wanted, working with the camera.

As soon as I stepped into the common room, I was bombarded with 'Happy Birthday's' and hugs and singing. I love these people. Emilie was the first to give me a huge birthday hug. She was my closest friend on set, despite the age difference, we were like sisters.

"Come see what we've got for you."
