The rest of the week in Greece seemed to fly by and before they knew it, departure day had come around. They were all packing their bags to go, and Jake went to Mason's room to check in. The rest of the week had been fairly chill, a couple of stolen kisses here and there but nothing super deep and he wanted to make sure what they said after the night out still stood.
"Hey." Jake open the door and said.
"Hey J." Mason smiled
"Just wanted to give you this back and say I had an awesome week." Jake blushed in awkwardness, also giving Mase back a hoodie he'd borrowed the other day.
Mase threw the hoodie back at him, "Keep it, just give it to me next time I see you."
"Ah thanks. Well, have fun in Dubai with Dec."
"And have a sick time in Ibiza with the United boys."
"I'm back in England in a week, not back into training until a couple weeks after. Text me yeah?"
"Cool, yeah I'm back around the same time. Come to London maybe?" Mase offered
"Sure" Jake replied, barely containing the smile on his face.
The Chelsea boy pushed him against the wall and into a long kiss goodbye, before meeting Jake return to backing his stuff.

As he and Dean were on the plane to Ibiza, he sat in the hoodie Mase had given him and stared out of the window. Wondering what the hell had happened to his life this week. Wondering what would happen when he got back to England. He was excited, nervous, terrified all at the same time. Dean looked over at him.
"Jake what's up? - you've been spaced out all day" Hendo asked.
"Nothing just tired like" Jake lied.
"Yeah, you're defo lying mate. Do you forget sometimes that I've literally know you from being 8 and this shit won't fly with me? If I don't get it out of you, Rashy will the minute we get there so..." The three of them had been best mates since they were 10. Dean and Jake were the school year above Marcus but with him only being a few months younger and being the talent he was, he played with them from being 10. They were the first two footballers Jake came out to, and they had been with him through it all; the Alex relationship, telling others, accepting myself. He had worried he wouldn't be able to keep this from the two of them for long.
"Fuck, it's hard to say because I'm telling part someone else's secret." Jake sighed
"Look rivs, cut the shit, you know we are brothers and what you tell me stops with me. What's bothering you."
