"I told you to text me when you were in the taxi!" I slap Jides arm before I wrap my arms around his chest, pulling him in for a hug.

"Sorry I forgot." He mumbles into my hair. "What's this about you replacing me hmm?" He holds me at arms length, squeezing my shoulders slightly. I've never seen Jide smile as much as he is right now, he is beaming.

"Surprise?" Simon looks up at Jide and the room erupts into laughter. Everyone gets up and hugs Jide welcoming him home. While I slip off to the kitchen to make JJ a drink, I pour the cup half and half.

Half vodka and half coke, the way he likes it.

"Is that for me?" I jump a little as I feel arms make their way round my waist, I look up to see a grinning blonde boy.

"Nope." I pop the p and smile before untangling my self from him but before I can even move his arms snake their way around my free wrist and he pulls me towards him, pressing our lips together.

We pull away, faces close. I peer up at the tall boy, a rosy tint on his cheeks. I poke my tongue out before turning round and heading out the kitchen, Simon following close behind.

"Here Jide, get this down you." I hold out the cup and he gladly accepts, lifting the cup to his mouth the drink is gone in around three seconds. Jide leans in close to my ear, "I've met someone." He whispers.

"No way!" I gasp and turn to see a grinning boy infront of me. I knew something was different about him, he's finally met someone for him and it couldn't make me happier.

"I'm so happy for you, what's her name?" I give him a small, quick hug. "Christie."

"Well let's get drunk right now and you can tell me all about her..." I smile up at the boy, "when you treat me to a McDonald's breakfast in the morning?" We both laugh and slowly but surly everyone gets drunk to the point where we all sit in the kitchen for about two hours planning trips abroad and extravagant video ideas.

-

Simon and I are in bed, it's around 4 in the morning and we are both slightly drunk and attempting to stay awake, the first Scooby doo movie is playing in the background.

"Jides met a girl." I look over at the sleepy blonde boy lying next to me.

"Seriously? Bout time." Simon chuckles, rolling over so that our bodies are close. I look at him, his eyes droopy from being tired but it doesn't stop the constant smile on his face.

"Her names Christie, I'm kinda scared to meet her." I bite my lip, holding back an anxious sigh. The thing is, everyone always thought Jide and I would end up together which we always knew wasn't true. Jide is like my brother and whenever I get a new guy he has to see what he's like before it gets serious and unfortunately I have to do the same.

"Don't be, you're like jides smaller whiter sister." Simon mumbles as he rolls over so his face is in the pillow, throwing an arm over my waist he pulls me so I am right next to him.

"Simon!" I laugh, but It's true though. He lifts his head and rests it on my chest giving me the perfect opportunity to run my hands through his hair, the thing he enjoys most.

"I wanna take you somewhere." Simon turns his head a little to look up at me, a small grin playing on his lips.

"Where? I'm perfectly fine here." I brush my thumb over his cheek, feeling the slight stubble. I don't see why we need to go anywhere, I'm happy here with everyone.

Simon just turns back and closes his eyes, humming slightly to a tune. He lies still for a moment, just enjoying the silence.

"Millie.." Simon wanders off, waiting for me to answer but I just hum in response, running my fingers through his soft blonde hair.

"I.. I really like you." I look down to see his face go a slight shade of red, his eyes screw shut and open again this time looking up at me.

"I really like you too Simon." I smile down at him, I know he's drunk and tired and he probably doesn't really know why he's saying. "Go to sleep Simon."

"No I mean it Millie." Suddenly Simon sits up facing me, he sits cross legged in front of me, our knees touching. I decide to stay silent and let him talk.

"You mean a hell of a lot to me Millie." He frowns slightly. "I've never met someone I've connected so much with. You listen to me, understand me.." He trails off.

"You get me. I know we haven't known each other for a great deal of time but I.. I think I'm falling in love with you Millie."
