Chapter 1

A:N/ set in the summer before their second year.

"But Danny you promised we could go out tonight!" I moaned clinging onto his arm as he attempted to go out of the door of his house.

"I know Lauren honey but we really have to work on the routine! We'll take the whole day tomorrow. Just you and me ok? See ya baby, love you!" he replied giving me a kiss and struggling out of my grip. He, BB and Jez waved goodbye and gave him a half-hearted smile. "Yeah that's if you don't have to work on your fucking routine again!" I said to my self as I shut the door. I'm happy for him but he spends more time with BB and Jez than he does with me! And I'm his girlfriend! I sat gloomily by the piano. I played a few chords and reached out for a pad of paper. I flicked through trying to find a blank page. Most of the pad was filled up with scribblings in Danny's handwriting. Some were just him writing words and trying to read them to help his dyslexia, some were drafts of songs he had written, or at least tried to, and some were just random lines and quotes he found funny. I finally found a blank page and began to write a few lyrics. Next to mine, Danny's handwriting was abysmal! I continued to write and play all night. I began to grow tired and the next thing I knew I was lying in my bed being shaken awake by Danny.

"Hey baby doll," he said softly brushing the hair away from my eyes. "Hey, you awake honey?" He leaned forward and kissed me softly on the lips. I gave him a sleepy smile as he stroked my cheek.

"Morning honey, what's the time?"

"11 o'clock, babe"

"Oh ok, well um, I'll get dressed and... yeah,"

"Ok Hun," he said staying put,

"Um... I'd kinda like to get dressed in private!" I said laughing.

"What!? It's not like I've never seen you with no clothes on!"

"Yeah but babe that was different and anyway I need you to make sure no one walks in!" He laughed, nodded and walked out of the room. I began to unbutton my shirt. I searched through my draws to find a clean shirt. I sighed and took of my jeans, and put on a clean denim skirt. Just as I was doing up my belt Danny came in.

"Come on honey! I'm bored!" He whined. I laughed and put on my shoes.

"Give me a second baby!" Just at that moment Jez and BB came bursting in."We're going to Vegas!" BB said happily.

"Porquoi?" I asked, BB gave me a confused look and I laughed, "It means "why?", it's French, now get to the point!"

"Well, my aunt bought a place up there and seeing as it's summer she wants me to go and check it out!!" Jez squealed jumping up and down.

"And why does this involve us?" Danny asked wrapping his arms around my waist.

"Because you're coming too! I asked her if I could bring my friends and she said yes!!" He said excitedly.

"That is awesome!!" I said,

"Pack your bags we're leaving in 4 hours!" Jez said grinning.

"But..." Danny started.

"Honey! Vegas! Vegas! Come on it'll be fun! And also, we get to spend time together if you know what I mean!" He giggled and we began to kiss.

"Hey whoa! Guys! PDA! Eww!" BB said shielding his eyes.

"Sorry BB!" I laughed. I began to pack my suitcase and Jez skipped, yes skipped, out of the room shortly followed by BB who was walking in a normal fashion.

"We're going to Vegas!" Danny said hugging me.

"Woo! Vegas here we come!"
