Contrast~ A Conor & Jack Maynard Fanfiction

5

It is the next day and we all just had dinner. We are now arriving at the club. I'm not the biggest fan of going to clubs but Joe's right. I am finally making some mates and I should start going out more. Once we did get into the club I needed something to drink. I grabbed Joe and pulled him with me to get a drink.
"Oi! Two shots Bacardi!" I shouted to the bartender. He put his thumb up.
"Are you trying to get me drunk?" Joe asked.
"First of all it's one shot. Second, if you don't want it, I'll take it." I told him. The bartender set two shots in front of us.
"Fine, I'll have it." Joe smiled. We grabbed the shot glasses.
"To having a great mate." I smiled.
"And more to come." Joe smiled.
"Cheers!" We took our shots.

Over some time I had a few more shots and well I was a little crazy. I really danced with Joe. Joe was enjoying it but Oli kind of pulled me away. I danced with all of the guys pretty much. Obviously not Oli. But he had to be like my dad. Pulling me out and stopping me from taking more shots. I do have to say I am having a really fun time with Conor though. I might say yes to him.
"Liz! Have a shot with me?" Conor smiled.
"Sure!" I smiled. He took me over to the bar. He asked for two shots of vodka.
"Cheers!" Conor and I took our shots. I put the glass down as I looked at him.
"Sure." I smiled.
"What?" He questioned.
"I'll go out with you."
"Really?!"
"Yeah, but don't tell Jack just yet."
"Deal!" Conor smiled then asked for two more shots.

I slowly opened my eyes the next morning and I am not in my bed. I freaked out then turned over and sat up.
"Morning sunshine." Joe was on his phone.
"Bloody hell Joe. I thought I was in some strangers bed. Why am I here and not at my place?" I questioned.
"Oli wanted to leave early and you didn't want to leave yet. I live closer to the club so I just brought you back here." He explained.
"Alright, but why am I wearing your shirt?" I asked as I looked down.
"You kind of spilled some vodka on your shirt and I wanted, well you wanted it to be washed. You were so out of it that you wouldn't stay still so I kind of had to change you."
"Oh, ok. Thanks I guess." I said and got out of the bed.
"No problem but nice tattoo." Joe smiled.
"I actually have two so which one?" I wondered.
"The one by your rib cage."
"The one to remember Haley." I nodded.
"What's the other?" Joe questioned.
"You didn't see the other?" I pulled the shirt down a little from my collar bone.
"Family is forever."
"Yeah." I let go of the shirt.
"You want Oli in your life forever?" Joe laughed.
"Shut up. I love him and I know you do too. He's like your brother." I smiled.
"Yeah ok." Joe laughed.
"He can be a fool but he is a great person." I smiled.
"Very true. Well, would you care for some breakfast?" Joe asked.
"No, I think I'm just going to head back to my place." I grabbed my phone. I unlocked it. I got a text from Conor. I unlocked the screen then read the text. I'm confused.
"Why do you seem confused? Did you give a random guy your number?" Joe chuckled a bit.
"Well, he's no random guy and he already had my number for a couple of weeks now." I told Joe and looked at him.
"Is it Jack?" He questioned.
"No it's Conor."
"You guys did have a few shots together but what did he say?" Joe wondered and I looked back at my phone.
"When are you free? Also, where would you like to go for our date and what do you want to do?" I read Conor's text out loud.
"You're going on a date with Conor?!" Joe sat up.
"I must've said yes last night."
"You were drunk! You're not actually really thinking about going on a date with him are you?" Joe wondered.
"Maybe, I don't know? Why? Is he a bad date?"
"I'm just worried. He's a good date but I'm saying after like the third date or after the first week."
"Why?" I wondered.
"I just don't want you to move to fast."
"Joe, I'm not sixteen and you aren't my older brother."
"But sometimes I can act as your older brother and you consider me at times as another brother. I'm also just a good mate who cares about you and I don't want you just having sex with someone for the first time with only dating that person for a week! Liz, you have to understand that I just care about you!" Joe stood up and walked over to me.
"I know you do Joe! Last night, I don't know if you remember but we took another shot after a few hours of being there and you cheerfully said that you love me! So you don't need to say that I have someone besides family caring about me. I know!"
"Well I do." Joe called down.
"Sister wise or someone else?" I asked.
"Someone special wise. I understand we agreed but I mentally can't let you go. Now that I think about it, I think you going on a date would be good for you and maybe us in general. But just take my advice and don't move too fast." Joe told me heartfelt.
"Alright but I want to head off. I'm probably just going to sleep the whole day." I walked past him.
"Liz, your shirt?" He questioned.
"You can just give it back to me another day. I'll wash your shirt and give it back. I'll talk to you later Joe." I told him then walked up the stairs.
"Good morning Liz." Caspar said as he was laying on the couch.
"Morning Caspar." I looked for my shoes.
"What are you looking for?" He asked.
"My shoes."
"They're over here. You aren't staying for breakfast?" Caspar wondered.
"No, I want to get back home. I'll see you soon though." I told him as I slid my shoes on.
"Alright, I'll talk to you soon."

On the way back home, in an uber, I was slightly falling back asleep. Then my phone started to ring. With my eyes still closed I answered it.
"Hello."
"Hey Liz, I was just wondering if you got my text?" It was Conor.
"Yeah I did." I responded.
"Well, when are you free?" Conor asked.
"I don't usually like to go out on nights when I work the next day so Friday night." I replied half asleep.
"Ok, that sounds great."
"Yeah."
"I'll pick you up around six? Is that good?"
"Sure." My eyes are still closed.
"Great. You don't have to dress up."
"Alright Conor."
"I'll see you on Friday."
"Yep, bye." Conor said.
"Bye." I ended the call when I arrived at my home. I paid the driver and got out. I took two steps then I had a wake up call and realized what I just did. Well I'm not going back.
