Vernon paces back and forth at the bottom of the staircase, impatiently taking glances up to the second floor everytime another slow minute passed.

"Baby, I don't mean to rush you but can you please hurry? We're going to be late!" He calls, stopping and propping his hands on his hips. He flicks his wrist and checks his watch for the time.

When Vernon doesn't get a response, he quickly skips up the stairs, his fingers sliding along the handrail.

"Babe!" He turns into the bedroom he shared with his girlfriend and leans against the doorway when he sees her, in the same position he left her over twenty minutes ago. She was sat in front of her mirror, every lipstick, mascara tube, eyeliner stick and powder he could imagine splayed out in front of her. "Baby, you don't need all that make up. You're so beautiful without it."

"Vernon, do you even remember where we're going?" Kinzie, his girlfriend asks. She doesn't look at him and continues brushing pink blush on her cheeks. "It's a party with your band mates. Not just your band mates, but your band mates and their girlfriends too. I need to look good!"

"Baby, really?" He laughs to himself as he walks over to her. He gently grabs her wrist and pries the brush from her fingers. He sets it down with the others, grabs her other wrist and pulls her to stand in front of him. "Baby girl you'll be the most beautiful one there, you don't need to worry. You'll also be the hottest, because fuck that dress looks good on you."

"You think so?" She smiles and twists her hips, making the short hem lift up even more. "It took forever to pick out."

"Well you picked the perfect dress. Can we go now? I promise you, you look gorgeous as fuck okay."

"Okay fine. We can go," she says and he smiles, leaning forward to kiss her cheek. He lets her wrists go and kneels down in front of her, holding her heels still so she could step into them. "But we're honestly not that late. We're just fashionably late if you think about it, that's it."

"We were going to be fashionably late ten minutes ago, now we're just assholes who seem like we don't actually want to go. Come on."

Everyone noticed that the power couple were late. Kinzie's cheeks were tinted red as they walked in with all eyes on them, her arm linked in Vernon's as he lead her through the crowd. Attention followed as they approached the snack table, Vernon grabbing a glass filled with sparkling wine. He hands it to Kinzie and she thanks him quietly, before taking a small sip.

"Hey! Kinzie right?" Kinzie looks over her shoulder and sees someone she doesn't recognize, but she sets the wine down and uncurls her arm from her boyfriends.

"Yeah, hi!" She smiles politely at the girl.

"Hi! My god your dress is so cute! It's Neiman Marcus right? I love the lace down here at the bottom," she says, grabbing the lacey hem of Kinzies dress and rubbing it between her fingers.

"Yeah, Vernon bought it for me. It's nice right?"

"Of course! You look stunning in it!" She compliments. She looks at Vernon. "That must've been so expensive."

"You know," Vernon shrugs with a cocky smirk. "Whatever the Queen wants she'll get."

"You two are so cute."

Fifteen minutes into the party, Kinzie and Vernon were called over to the couch to join Hoshi and his girlfriend. Vernon and Hoshi were deep into a conversation about work, speaking in Korean with each other. The Chinese boy's girlfriend was sat next to him, his arm around her while he talked, but she was on her phone and paying no attention to Kinzie at all. Kinzie was bored as hell, perched comfortably on her boyfriend's lap. His hands were on her hips, his fingers idly playing with the material of her dress.
