Team Starkid broke up a little over 5 months ago . After a rather nasty fight, the members rarely speak to each other. After living with his parents the past few months, Brian Holden learns something about his mom- she's dying. He's suddenly afraid he won't be able to give her the one thing she always looked forward to- his wedding. This is what happens when an old friend volunteers to help solve his problem, and how they fall in love on the journey while trying to bring the group back together 3 (Completely AU after Starship)I have never met Team Starkid. I love them all and this is just fiction, none of it is true.

Lauren's POV

"OH MY GOD YOU DOUCHEBAG! YOU LOST MY MONEY! HOW COULD YOU? SERIOUSLY?!"

"Don't worry, " I sighed wanting nothing more than for Donnie to stop screaming into the phone. "It was only a twenty! I'll pay you back, okay?" I took a sip of the iced caramel latte I 'lost' some of his money on as I waited for my cousin to continue. The rest of the twenty was actually lost somewhere in between my home and the Dunkin Donuts three blocks away.

"Yeah" Donnie sighed into the phone.

"Okay. Oh, and I don't think I'll be starting at Jenna's store today. Emily's coming today and I have to help her settle. " I told the older man, while thinking of my childhood best friend/new roommate waiting in our Brooklyn apartment. "But I promise, and I mean promise!, that I'll be their later this week." In the back of my mind I could see myself going back on that promise already.

"Yeah, so by Wednesday?" "Uh-huh." "'Kay, but if you don't I swear I'm gon-" Whatever he was going to do, I didn't want to know, so I hung up and began skipping down the street to my apartment.

Slightly disappointed that Emily wasn't here yet as I opened the door, I put the latte down and sighed as I plopped onto the furry blue beanbag chair in the middle of the room. I had just finished the last of many nightly nanny calls. Don't get me wrong, I loved the triplets I watched!- but when you think about it, I would much rather be working in a music studio with my cousins (who I JUST learned lived in the city too!) than potty training three unruly two year olds. Although, what I'd really rather do is be back in Chicago working with my friends. My stomach seemed to sink as I remembered I might never be doing that again. All because some people were just too gullible…. Don't get me wrong, I still love all of them with my whole heart, even after everything they did. I actually forgave them months earlier and have been trying to get in contact ever since! Emily says they aren't talking because they're ashamed that they let something like that in the way of friendship. That might be true, but I know it was more than just that that broke up our theatre company. And not to be mean, but thank Wizard God there was more, because if everything happened just because of me I don't think I could live with myself!

The sound of the front door creaking open made me jump up, as I prepared to see one of my best friends again. I had a sudden sense of déjà vu from when I was helping Julia move into our new Brooklyn apartment, almost exactly 2 years earlier. A sunny, smiling face surrounded by dark brown ringlets appeared in my view, lugging three huge suitcases behind her.

"Em!" I cried, smiling at the tall girl as I rushed forward to help her with her luggage. Her mother, looking almost exactly the same as Emily, but with red hair instead of blonde, was not far behind.

After a few hours of unpacking and organizing, I left the now cramped apartment so Emily could have a moment to say good-bye to her mom. Unlike me, Emily got a master's degree in college, so this was her first time actually being away from home.

I decided to go where I almost always went, the park right by my home. It was this very park where I ran into Donnie again, and got offered the new job at the family business.

A small smile crossed my face as I thought of family. Family was a group of people who loved and supported you. The Starkids were my family. Maybe not by blood, but they just as good. I wished I could get a timeturner from Harry Potter and stop everything from happening. Honestly, I just wanted to talk to at least one of them again. To know how they were doing in life. Even just seeing them in person from a distance would be fine.

Of course, after thinking that,

Oh crap…I thought, My mind is playing fucking tricks on me. There is absolutely no way Brian Holden is sitting on that bench! Damn it! Am I missing them that much that I'm going crazy?!

I sighed to myself as I walker closer and closer to the guy who looked like Brian. The closer I got, I noticed that his blue eyes were filling with tears as he stared down at his Iphone. And he looked A LOT like Brian. Like, identical twins or something! I felt my heart break, just watching him sit there crying on the bench. An idea popped into my head. It was worth a try. Quietly, I walked up to the bench and sat down next to him. He didn't seem to notice at all."Brian?"
