• Next Day , 2 p.m. ; Ally's Room •

~ Maddie's POV ~

" What about those pizza's I promised ? " Ally suggested , waving her phone in my face .

" Yeah , I can go for meat lovers " I replied , sitting up from my upside down position on her bed .

Ally and I were in her bedroom , completely and utterly bored .

We had left the boys and a few of their friends downstairs while we decided to have girl time . But girl time quickly led to " hold on I have a text " and " let me check this Michael Clifford picture ".

" So meat lovers and chicken wings ? " Ally asked , while dialing the number .

" Yeah , BBQ wings " I added as she pressed the phone to her ear .

My phone screen lit up from its place in my pocket .

I looked down and smiled . Lachlan . As usual .

I unlocked the phone and went to iMessage to check out what he had to say .

" Maddie , 5 pizzas in total have been ordered " Ally stated , flinging herself back onto the bed .

" Wow , hopefully pizza in London will taste way better than pizza in Florida " I smiled .

" Pizza in Florida isn't good ? " Ally asked , a concerned expression crossing her face .

" It is but I'm just hoping that pizza here will be better . Then I can be like Lachlan who travels everywhere to try their Chipotle ".

Ally let out a small chuckle . " Lachlan really loves Chipotle ".

" Yeah , I don't know what it is about Mexican food but he can't get enough of it " I shrugged .

I got up from the bed with my phone .

" I think I'll go tell the boys that we ordered pizza " I announced .

" Yeah , for sure . But add that they only get one box " Ally chimed in as I walked out of the room .

" I will ! " I yelled over my shoulder as I walked downstairs .

Loud yells and the sound of Fifa being played came from the living room . Looks like I'll be heading there.

I walked down the hall towards the living room , passing the fridge stacked with beers .

" Hey guys " I greeted .

Simon , Josh , Vikk , Tobi , Manny , Ethan , a guy with a long face and blond hair and other guy with buff arms and dark brown hair were all seated on the black leather couch and a few bean bags ; Simon and Josh at the controllers .

Simon paused the game instantly and turned his attention to me .

" Hey Madeline , what's up ? " he greeted .

I shifted uncomfortably as I saw out of the corner of my eye , the boy with the long face and blond hair eyeing me .

" Um , I just came here to tell you guys that Ally ordered pizzas for all of us " I confirmed , the words coming out faintly .

" Thanks , you two are bae " Josh breathed .

" Your welcome " I replied , turning on my heel to leave .

" Wait , Madeline . Why don't you stay for a little bit ? " Ethan suggested .

I turned to face them and shook my head . " No , I shouldn't . You guys are clearly busy ".

" Nah , stay . Let us get to know you . You seem like a nice girl " the boy eyeing me earlier added .

" Thank you but it's your guy time . I shouldn't interfere " I protested .

I don't feel like I should stay . This is clearly not the right crowd for me .

There are so many things that they do that I would both never have the guts to do or want to do in the first place . Plus , I rather stay away from the scent of alcohol and sober guys for a while .

" Maddie , are these pricks bothering you ? " Ally asked , coming up beside me with her arms crossed .

" No " Vikk protested .

" Didn't look like it . It shouldn't take a girl this long to inform you that we ordered pizza " Ally snapped .

" We just wanted to know more about her " the long faced blond spoke up .

" She's off limits Cal " Ally spat .

" Cal as in the boy you called yesterday during our prank challenge thing ? " I cut in .

" Yeah . And that guy is Joe ". She pointed towards the mysterious dark browned haired boy .

" And who's she ? " Joe spoke up .

" Madeline . I'm visiting Ally . I'm leaving tomorrow morning " I explained .

" Hey , why don't we have a farewell party for Madeline ? " Josh suggested .

Before I could protest , Manny spoke up instantly .

" Yeah ! We should start getting ready . I'll order more pizzas ! " Manny cried , getting up from the couch and walking out of the living room .

" I'll start calling people " Cal stated , whipping out his phone .

" I'll help " Joe added , taking out his phone as well .

" And the rest of us can get the house ready " Simon told the others .

Soon everyone had cleared out of the living room to get ready for the last minute party , leaving Ally and I in the doorway .

" I can't wait for this party ! " Ally cheered , racing towards the staircase .

I followed slowly after . " Yay ! " I cheered sarcastically .

• Few Hours Later , 9 p.m. ; Sidemen House •

I applied the last bit of foundation to my face as the music blasted from the speakers downstairs .

It only took a few hours for the boys to get everything ready and now , downstairs is destined to be the craziest farewell party I have experienced in my lifetime .

I took one last look in the mirror at my outfit , ( A/N : Outfit in Media ) separating my brown hair hair into two parts and placing them in my shoulders .

Wow , I really need to re-dye my hair again . The blond tips are starting to die out .

Taking my glance away from the mirror , I gathered my makeup materials and walked back into my guest bedroom where most of my things were packed .

After I put my makeup back into my makeup bag in my suitcase , my phone rang from the bedside table .

I pushed the suitcase back in the corner of the room before grabbing my phone .

Looking at the screen , it was Lachlan trying to FaceTime me .

I answered quickly , the video taking a little bit to load .

" Hey ! " he greeted cheerfully .

Judging from the background , Lachlan was lying down on his bed since I could see pillows under his head .

" Hey Lachy ! " I greeted back .

He took a look at my appearance and raised an eyebrow .

" Why are you all dressed up ? " he questioned .

" Partying . It was the guys idea " I shrugged .

" Wow , they really seem to be rubbing off on you " he smiled .

" Haha , very funny " I said sarcastically , letting out a monotone laugh .

" I can't wait for you to come here " he smiled .

" Yeah , I know . You have said it a million times now " I groaned .

" I just want to let you know how excited I am . For you to meet my parents and my friends , " he listed . " And don't forget about going to all my favorite hangouts ".

I flashed a smile . " I can't wait ".

" Are you nervous ? ".

" I don't know . I have this tight knot in my stomach just thinking about meeting everyone " I admitted , holding my stomach .

" Don't worry . I don't care if they don't like you . I will love you either way " Lachlan assured .

I blushed . " How did I ever get this lucky ? ".

" aw I ask myself that question every day ".

Suddenly , I hear the door to the bedroom opening slightly .

I looked up and saw Ally's head poking in the door crack .

" You coming down ? " she asked .

" Yeah , I'll be down in a second " I replied .

Ally nodded before closing the door .

I looked back down at Lachlan who was waiting patiently .

" Sorry , I got to go " I frowned .

" It's fine . I'll get all the time to talk to you tomorrow night " he winked .

" Okay , love you " I smiled .

" Love you too . Bye " he said before the call ended .

I tucked my phone into my back pocket , took a deep sigh and headed out into the hallway .

Time to enter the jungle people call a house party .

• 12 p.m. ; Sidemen House •

The party was in full swing . Everyone had arrived and everyone was drunk . Well , everyone but me since all I drank tonight was 5 cans of Coke which tasted way better in the UK than in America .

Ally was no where in sight . The last time I saw her was when she was with Vikk .

I think I saw the two of them go upstairs , but personally , I don't want to know what the two of them are doing ...

I stood alone at the kitchen island , scrolling mindless throughout my phone , playing games I downloaded but never touched .

Suddenly , someone pulled me into a hug from behind ; swaying me along with the music that was playing .

" Heyyyy " Simon slurred in my ear .

He had too much to drink .

I gently removed his hands away from me , turning around to face him .

His eyes were red rimmed and he had a wide Joker-like grin spread across his face .

" Simon , you had too much to drink " I stated , gripping him by his shoulders to stop him from swaying back and forth .

" Nahhhhh , I'm fineeee " he protested , giggling .

" Simon , listen to me . You need to go upstairs to your bedroom " I instructed .

" Why don't you come with me ? " he winked , holding one of my hands .

I shook my hand out of his gasp . " Simon , I will not come upstairs with you ".

" Maddieeee ? " Simon slurred .

I couldn't help but smile at his drunkenness . He was definitely a cuddly yet flirty drunk .

" Yes Simon ? ".

He leaned in close . " Can I tell you something ? ".

" Sure , shoot " I replied .

" I like you " he burst out .

" I like you too " I responded .

" No , like I love youuuu " Simon laughed , throwing himself onto me .

I froze .

Did he mean it ? He can't be telling the truth . Don't drunk people just say random shit ? But at the same time , don't they reveal things they could never say if they weren't drunk ?

Shoving the topic to the back of my mind , I focused on the bigger task at hand ; getting Simon up to his bedroom .

" That's nice Simon . But let's go to your bedroom " I said .

" Oooo , my bedroom . With a gurll " he teased , trying to wink but failing miserably .

I let out a laugh . " Yes , we are going to your bedroom ".

I grabbed Simon by his arm and lead him through the crowd of other drunk people .

I helped Simon up the stairs which was a struggle since he kept on tripping on his own feet half of the time .

Once we finally got to his bedroom , Simon flung himself on the bed and stretched .

" So , are we going to fuck now ? " Simon asked .

" No , we are not going to have sex . You are going to sleep " I laughed .

" I don't like sleeping though " he pouted .

" Well go to sleep anyways . I'm going to sleep " I announced .

" Can you sleep with me ? " Simon pleaded .

" I have a boyfriend Simon . Sleeping with you wouldn't be right " I explained , having a seat on the edge of his bed .

" Why can't you be my girlfriend ? " Simon cried , I swear I could almost see tears forming in his eyes .

" Cause I'm in love with someone else . You'll find someone . Everyone does " I reassured .

Am I really having a heart to heart conversation with a drunk person ? Is this how low I have went to talking to someone at a party ?

" I have to go Simon . Go to sleep and everything will be okay in the morning " I sighed , getting up from the bed .

" Okay . Bye Maddie " Simon said before cuddling into his pillows .

I quietly made my way out of the room , closing the door softly behind me .

Did Simon really mean all those things ?
