A life changing trip - wroetoshaw/Miniminter

Meeting George

"What are we doing here?" Ethan asked as he arrived to Simon and jjs flat.

"It's a surprise apparently." Tobi mumbled.

"We're too old for surprises." Ethan moaned.

"You're 28, you don't get to moan about being old." Josh laughed.

"Can't believe we used to call you old at 28. Now we're considered young at 28." Vik laughed.

"Any guesses?" Simon teased as he was aware of the surprise. Multiple people went to speak at once causing Simon to shush them.

"Eh stop...youngest can guess first and oldest last." Simon smiled before reading the the room and frowning.

"I hate that saying." Vik frowned.

"Yeah it's not right." Ethan commented.

"Well vik is technically the new youngest so you go first vik." JJ commented as he ate some of his lunch.

"Yeah go on vik take a guess." Tobi shoved his shoulder.

"My shoulder..." JJ joked as the boys laugh. Vik completely ignoring the overplayed joke.

"To clear up I'm second youngest. I don't want to be called the youngest." Vik started to which everyone nodded. "Erm I don't know, a dog?"

"Nope, Ethan?" Simon smiled.

"A suitcase full of money." Ethan laughed.

"I wish. Nope...JJ already knows do that leaves Tobi."

"Hmmm...I already know about JJ getting married. Maybe simons doing bits. You haven't got a kid have you?"

"Well.." Simon laughed as he look at JJ. "You're not wrong...but slightly off."

"Wait what?" Josh commented.

"Just wait and see. Honestly it's a madness."

The boys waited around filling the silence for a further 5 minutes before there was a knock on the door. "Close your eyes." Simon shouted as he ran to the door.

"Hey, thank you so much for coming. They're going to love this." Simon smiled to chloe.

"It's fine. I don't know how long we'll stay. He gets tired a lot." Chloe nodded as she held George on her hip.

"You walk in and I'll bring him in." Simon pushed.

"Okay." Chloe said slightly confused.

She walked in to the sight of 4 grown men sitting cross legged on the floor with their eyes closed, some chuckling at the wait. JJ stood behind the sofa sending her a soft smile and a wave to which she waved back.

"Can they open their eyes?" Chloe said back to Simon.

"Who was that?" Ethan said.

Tobi was first to open. Immediately reacting. Leaning forward onto the floor and hitting it with his fist. "Oh my god!" He shouted before jumping up and grabbing her in a hug.

The sudden noise of tobis movement triggered the others to open their eyes. They sat in shock, looking back at Simon and JJ for answers.

"We didn't know if you were okay." Tobi whimpered into Chloes shoulder. Chloe could tell Tobi still blamed himself. That was one of the things she dreaded, that he would've spiralled.

"I'm okay." She whispered as she hugged him back. He pulled away letting everyone else go in for hug.

"Well this is a blast from the past." Ethan laughed.
