The three weeks filed by as I focused on my school work, babysitting Nico and Bell. Having to look after Bell and Nico at the same time started to bug me as I had to plan what to do next with them hoping they don't fight while having to focus on helping with the payment on the house. Even Liam worked into the evening sometime to get more money for us which ended up in me having to look after Bell a bit more. The school work I just finished it in between my time with work and Bell while getting the big projects ready for the end of the year so I could have a bit of fun over the term instead of being stuck at home doing boring work. And well Bell she was a bit of a hand full with her going to school and coming home blabbering away with news about her school and friends.

After I finished looking after Nico again I had him go play with Bell whilst I went and took a rest thinking about the lessons with Jace. Jace had improved for an idiot to a guy who did ok playing guitar, but he has never sung while practicing for some reason. Maybe he was just a grumpy guy who couldn't sing or he chose not to. His last lesson he ended up spilling apple juice over him. A little giggle came out of my lips as I thought of the day.

~Flash back~

"Hey Lacey what would you think if you were to do this song?" Handing him the song 'Grade 8 by Ed sheeran'. He looked over it as he tried to multi task drinking and looking over the song, but he forgot he had a guitar in his lap.

"Jace!" trying to get his attention he looked down to see he had spilled the juice over him soaking him making me erupt into a fit of laughter while he started to groan about the juice on him. Getting up I walked over to him and took the guitar off him.

"Oh my poor guitar you have juice on you." I skimmed over the guitar grabbing a cloth from the kitchen to wipe it just as Jace came in with no shirt making my heart skip a beat as I saw his tan abs making me stare.

"Hey you know that you could have helped me instead of the guitar." Snapping out of my day dreaming I blushed at my sudden stare off with his chest. Finally realizing what he had said I gasped as he talked about 'Bob' the guitar. Yep I am a bit crazy naming the guitar, but I thought of it on the spot.

"No I had to help Bob first cause he is more important than a t-shirt which you are missing." He smirked at my last comment while chuckling a little.

"You named the guitar Bob?" He started to laugh even more making a shiver run up mine spine for I had never heard him laugh like this before.

"Yeah you got a problem with it?" I started to laugh a bit as I thought how ridiculous we were being right now fighting over the name Bob. Jace stopped laughing as soon as I started and that was when I realized he needs a shirt.

"You can borrow one of Liam's shirts and I will wash your and give it to you when I am done or should I keep it just in case you have another 'accident' again." I used finger quotations marks as I referred to the juice. As he followed me up the stairs as we headed to Liam's room for a shirt I couldn't help bit sneak a peek at his face to see his expression. Once we were in Liam's room I skipped over to his draw looking for a shirt, but finding something instead making my eyes widen in shock as I saw something I wish never to see again.

"Omg. Look at this." Handing Jace the box he started to laugh at my shocked expression from finding a box of condoms in his draw.

"Man he must have a lot of fun." Jace started to laugh even more as my face changed from a shocked look to a disgusted one while he handed me the box while I swapped it for a shirt. Once Jace had changed we finished practicing while I waited for Liam to get home to I can question him about a certain thing.

~End of flash back~

"Del can me and Nico have some smarties please." Bell and Nico came skipping over while holding hands which was quite cute. Over the time Bell and Nico have come the best of friends over the set of time I have had babysitting him when I had him over and also at school even if he is a year older than her they acted the same age even if they are 8 they act 6.

"Yes you can, but don't tell anyone." They rushed over to the pantry and grabbed the smarties and going into the blanket fort they made whilst I was day dreaming about all this stuff.

Hearing giggling I crept over to the fort and peeped through a little hole in the blanket and watched as Bell kissed Nico making her blush.

"Ok now you have to do a dare." Crawling into the pillow and blanket fort while they squealed at me squeezing in.

"What are you guys doing?" I whispered as I started to tickle them. All of a sudden there was a knocking at the door making us freeze.

"Who's there?" poking my head out of the fort I waited for the answer.

"It's Jace and Vincent." Squeezing back into the fort I told them to be quiet. Whilst we hid in the on pour of blankets and pillows.

"The door is open." Once I had said that the door creaked open and footsteps followed as we sat still in the pillow/blanket fort as we tried to stay silent with only a few giggles as we waited.

"Oh I wonder where they could be." We started to giggle a bit more as then all of a sudden the blankets started to move.

"Here's Lacey." We all screamed at Jace and Vincent came in snuggling in with us.

"So what you doing?" Suddenly sitting up like nothing happened as I was squashed up between Jace and Nico. We all started laughing at how silly we looked all squashed up together we were. Finally we got out one at a time. We let the little ones go first then Vincent, Jace then me. Getting out of the little space I had to shimmy out when all of a sudden my but got stuck.

"Um Jace can I have some help." He started to chuckle as he started to pull me out of the hut. A flash of wind surrounded me as I finally came out flying from the hut and landing on top of him. Staring into his green eyes I felt paralyzed as I saw his face probably since forever. His eyes stared into mine and in his eyes which stood out more than anything on his face and his lips came a second. Then his lips turned into a smirk as I blushed while getting up and brushing the dust of my clothes just before I lead them to the door.

"Bye guys." I whispered just before Bell came and kissed Nico on the cheek making my insides melt at how cute that was while putting a smile on my face.

"Bye Nicky." We all looked at Bell and Nico and either smiled or grinned at their exchange. Waving good bye to them we slammed the door shut and ate some cereal. Bell started to yawn making me yawn too.

"Hey Del can we watch a movie?" Grabbing Bell and pulling her into a hug we walked over to the lounge to watch The Lion King 2. During the movie I heard Bell snoring just as I was drifting in and out of consciousness when all of a sudden I felt so warm and cozy which brought me to my down fall and I feel asleep with Bell in my arms.
