You were at another party, but this time it was at Will and Gee's place. There was a few people there including Stephen, Brian and your longtime crush Laurence. Everyone sort of knew you had a thing for each other but neither of you had the guts yet to sort of make a move.
You were sitting not the couch, next to a very drunk Stephen laughing as he went on about some weird story about his friend Max when Brian and Laurence walked over. "Alright lad and lass. You too seem to be having a good time" Stephen sat up and went to hug Brian but fell back into the couch. "Brian! My love! Give us a kiss" Brian laughed loudly and shook his head. "Not in front of all these people Stephen... maybe when we're alone" Stephen nodded and began nodding off, his energy sort of wasted standing up and talking. You looked at Laurence and Brian. "I better take him to Wills room or something" Laurence nodded and put his beer down. "I'll help you" You couldn't hold back your smile, but also sort of wobbled as you stood up, the alcohol already having an affect. "Ill leave you too to it" Brian winked at you and you blushed. "Mind look after Y/N too Laurence. She seems a bit wobbly" Brian mumbled in Laurence's ear. Laurence nodded and helped you get Stephen up. You both led him to Wills room and eventually got him laid down in his bed. You looked at Laurence. "He should be fine... right?" You giggled a bit, the alcohol you had sort of settling in. Laurence nodded. "Yeah he'll be fine sleeping for a bit. Come on, let's get some more drinks" You followed him out before looking at Stephen who seemed quite peaceful and turned the light off. You walked with Laurence to the table full of cans and bottles and also a lot of food. Laurence turned to you and smiled. "What would you like?" You shrugged. "Vodka and Coke?" Laurence nodded and started making it for you in a cup before handing it you. He held up his cup to yours. "Cheers" he says and you gently tap your cups together bother taking large gulps, feeling the burn go down your throat slowly. You look around and notice Will standing with some friends, looking at you both and smirking. You shake your head. You look back to Laurence and smile at him
A few hours later, at around 1am, people become more drunk and more wilder. You were a lot more drunk than before, but Laurence hadn't been drinking much. He wanted to look out for you incase something went wrong. "Do you want to go out to the balcony? It's a bit stuffy in here" You nod and giggle as Laurence takes your hand and leads you to the balcony as you stumble behind. You get out and shiver slightly. Laurence notices. "We can go back in if you want. You seem quite cold already" you shake your head and fall against the glass railing. "Maybe I should get you home" he mumbles to himself. You laugh and look at the city, taking in the view. "You know, it's hard sometimes" you mumble to yourself. Laurence looks over at you confused and intrigued. "What's hard?" You take a sip from your cup. "Being around you... knowing you don't like me the way I like you" you poke his chest and he looks at you. "I think you've had enough" he goes to grab the cup but you pull back and take a gulp. "You won't listen cause I'm a mess but I really really like you" Laurence looks a bit baffled. "How long?" He asks. His mind runs with a bunch of questions but he knows he can only ask a few. "A while. Everyone knew and they keep telling me that you like me too but I think their just being kind to let me down easily" Laurence watches as you sort of fall over yourself and he rushes to help you up. "Come on... lets take you home into your bed" you push him off. "Hey buddy you need to back off alright.... I like a guy and I ain't about to sleep with some random. I like Laurence alright" Laurence laughs. "I am Laurence" You look up at his face and took his cheek. "Oh hey Laurence. Some guy was trying to take me into my bed but I told him no! I like you you know and i.. i... I'm tired" You fall into Laurence and he laughs. Brian and Will walk over to you two laughing. "Look at the state of this pair. She's got you whipped mate and your not even together yet" Laurence smiles down at you. "So the rumours are true then" Will nods. "Take it she told you" Laurence nods. "I'm gonna take her back home and put her into bed. She's a bit gone" Brian slaps his back. "Well we shall see the outcome of this tomorrow. Text me mate" Laurence nods and leads you out of the apartment.
You arrive at your apartment which is in the same building but a floor down. Laurence helps you in and helps you to your room. You groan as you land on your bed. "Come on... let's get you into bed. Do you what to change or?" You mumble a 'nope' and Laurence nods. He helps you into bed before turning the light off and heads out. "Laurence!" You call out. He pops his head in. "Goodnight" you mumble. He smiles. "Goodnight Y/N"

The next morning was horrible. You had a horrible hangover which wasn't a surprise considering the circumstances. Laurence slept on your couch as he didn't have a way of getting because he left his wallet in Wills room. He knew you wouldn't mind anyways. You groaned and sat up and headed to the kitchen to get a drink and some paracetamol. You then noticed Laurence cooking breakfast. "Morning" he says with a smile. You groaned and flopped on the couch. "Just tell me straight. What happened?" You asked and Laurence laughed and sat down next to you. "Well you told me you liked me" You groaned again and pulled a pillow over your head. "Oh I'm sorry Laurence" he laughs and shakes his head. "Don't be sorry" you kept the pillow on your face. "No I am because you clearly don't like me back and I've just made it awkward" he laughed again. " I mean I didn't say I didn't like you back" you pulled down the pillow and gave him a baffled expression. "You what?" He smiles. "I like you too" You nod and look down. "What are we supposed to do now then?" You ask. "I'm not sure. We could start going out?" Laurence asks and you nod. "That sounds pretty good" you both laugh at each other. "I would like you know kiss you or something but honestly my breath smells like a dogs arse or something" he laughs and pecks your cheek. "Does that work?" You nod and smile. "That'll do" You take a sniff. "What's that smell?" Laurence shoots up and runs to the toaster. "I burnt the toast!" He shouts and you laugh as Laurence panics and rushes around trying to not burn anything else. It was a pretty good start to the day
