"I'll meet you there, I promise I'm just being held up" Lacey mumbled down the phone to Lauren, as Lauren sighed to herself, genuinely worried that Lacey wouldn't turn up to Jacks birthday drinks, despite Lacey's promise to Sasha that she would. "Yeah you better be here" Lauren mumbled, before hanging up the phone, and looking around the table, Jacks eyes scanning over Lauren for an indication of if Lacey was in fact going to turn up.

"If my own blood doesn't turn up to these drinks, I swear I will round kick your backside" Jack mumbled to Mason as he took a drink from the glass, Callum's eyes refusing to meet Masons. "I told her I wasn't coming, I'm only here because Chilly dragged me along" Mason mumbled, drinking from his own bottle, as Jack rolled his eyes.

Mason mumbled something, and decided to go up to the bar and get a round of drinks in, something he was going to need since it was clear nobody wanted him here. But that's when he heard her laughter, and sure enough he looked up saw her walking through the bar entrance, Alex next to her, as the jealousy boiled inside him, he was the reason she was late.

"Mase, hey" Lacey stated, as she stood at the bar, Alex walking over to the table to say hello to everyone. "You brought Alex then" Mason mumbled, as the confusion washed over Lacey's face, which soon turned to playfulness, realising that he was jealous. "I didn't know it was a crime" Lacey mumbled, as she ordered an orange juice. "Not drinking?" Mason mumbled, as he put his mouth to the beer that was no in his hand, his eyebrows raised, as Lacey shook her head. "I need to keep my hands to myself tonight" Lacey smiled, as she paid for her drink, and followed Mason to the table, helping him carry the many bottles he had ordered.

"Right Lace, I'll see you for that meeting tomorrow" Alex smiled, as he hugged her briefly, before leaving the bar, Masons mouth slightly open as Lacey smirked at him from across the table. "Shouldn't jump to conclusions Masey" Lacey whispered over the table, as she sat down again, drinking from her orange juice.

"How does it feel to be known in America then" Declan smiled to Lacey, taking a sip of his drink, as Lacey smiled. "How does it feel to be on the road to bringing it home again" Lacey chuckled, as the table laughed at her joke, Masons eyes not leaving hers.

"So what's everyone's plans for the weekend?" Lacey giggled, as she emptied another bottle of wine, not even an hour after she said she wasn't drinking. "So much for not drinking" Mason mumbled, as he took another swig of the many bottles he had gone through, feeling a little worse for wear, but continuing the night. "I think were having a weekend away" Sasha smiled, holding Jacks hand, as he nodded his head. "Need to spend some couple time together" Jack mumbled, his eyes scanning over Mason who was staring at Lacey. "I mean, we could always go back to mine" Jack stated, a plan in his mind, whether it be a sober one or a half hearted drunken one, he had a game to play.

"We are not playing spin the bottle" Lauren laughed, as Jack, Mason, Declan, Lauren, Callum, Dani, Sasha and Lacey sat around the on the carpet of Jacks home, the idea was, that the bottle would land on Lacey first, it was obvious the only person Mason would kiss would be Lacey, and as Jack sat there during the atmosphere at the bar, it was obvious that Mason had the feelings for Lacey he had admitted to having, and Jack had made mistakes in the past, and if the cards were in his favour, he was going to play them.

"Actually, I don't feel too good" Lacey mumbled, as she stood up and walked into Jack kitchen, the feet plodding behind her, she suspected to be one of the girls, but when she turned around and was met with Masons chest. "Oh sorry I didn't see you there" Lacey whispered, as Mason chuckled, pulling her hair towards her back and rubbing the middle of her back. "I feel really sick" Lacey mumbled, as she rubbed her head. "Two and a half bottles of wine do that to you" Mason mumbled, as Lacey turned around to face the sink, Mason reaching around her to get her a glass of water. "Are we going to talk about what happened?" Mason whispered, as Lacey shook her head. "Maybe another time, I don't have the effort for that conversation whilst I'm trying very hard to not throw my guts up in front of an attractive guy" Lacey mumbled, as Mason laughed to himself. "So you think I'm attractive" Mason smirked, as Lacey rolled her eyes. "I think you're attractive yes Mount" Lacey mumbled, as Masons smirk grew. "Well, I think you're attractive two" Mason smiled, his hand still resting on Lacey's back in the middle. "And you can throw up, it just means I get to look after you" Mason stated, himself sobering up at the thought of Lacey not being okay, but I guess having feelings for someone did that to you, the urge to protect them. "Are you saying you want to come round tonight?" Lacey questioned, a hint of playfulness in her voice, it didn't matter however she felt about Mason before she walked through the door the bar, being alone in the room with him, in Jacks kitchen, the world felt right again, like nothing could hurt or break her. "As long as I don't have to climb over your fence" Mason mumbled, as Lacey laughed, but soon stopped, emptying her stomach into Jacks sink.
