"i can't believe you skipped your ex classmates engagement party to come here" your best friend laughed as you were stood in line to meet one of your favourite bands who over time have grown to be some of your favourite people due to the number of times you've seen them

"she's only invited us all to brag, oh i'm getting married to a rich business man, we have a very large house and you are all idiots still" you respond mimicking her voice

"much rather be here" you add looking towards the three boys who were now only one person from you

"odds on me telling them you skipped a very big important event for this" she jokes

"odds on me calling you out as a liar" you remark

"mehmehmehmeh" she rolls her eyes at you

"shut it" you glare

"look who it is" george grins seeing you both stood beside him

"hey gee" you drag out smiling

"what you arguing about now" he laughs

"oh nothing" you shake your head

"y/n skipped a big event to come see you" y/f/n rushed out

"ben i'm being attacked over here" you over dramatically wave your arm towards ben who was stood to the side of you all tidying since you were the last two to meet them

"what big event?" blake joins the conversation after finising with the last fan

"no big event, nothing at all" you fake grin

"one of the girls she went to school with got engaged and is throwing a big party for it, free drinks and everything, yet she came here" y/f/n tells them

"you turned down a free bar?" blake gasps

"exactly my reaction" she laughs

"oh come on it's not that big a deal she's a bitch to me anyway" you roll your eyes

"who's a bitch" reece slings his arm round your shoulders

"you should all be glad i came here instead of a fancy, expensive, free bar party at the shard" you smile

"it's at the shard?!" george widens his eyes

"yeah, like i said she's getting married to a rich business man who had her sign a contract to stay with him for like ever so you know it'll end up toxic in the end, she can brag all she wants now but give it ten years and hopefully i'll have managed a boyfriend to then brag to her about getting married another ten years after that" you grin

"you'd be like fourty in twenty years" y/f/n laughed

"well then maybe i'll be a happy cat women who knows" you joke

"what's the real reason you're not going? it can't just be that you dislike her" blake questions

"you know we really should be moving along" you start to walk away instead of ranting to everyone

"no no we have time, explain" reece smirks pulling you back

"uh fine, the only con of getting an invite was that you had to have a plus one, meaning if you don't have a partner don't bother coming" you sigh

"and literally all my friends have boyfriends so i was not about to turn up on my own and be bullied for not having anyone yet" you add

"what time is this event?" reece looks down to you

"i don't know like 5" you shrug

"so say you did have a date, you'd still make it for an hour or so?" he narrows his eyes
