Never Give In Sequel

Hope you enjoy and please review! The sequel isn't going to be as long as the first story, but I don't really want it to just drag on XD

Chapter Eight

The past week had been pretty stressful. I had told Andy that the house was ours and he had freaked out and started trying to pack already which was pretty silly since we weren't moving in until next week. Today is the day that we start packing, though. I feel like Andy's going away for tour again and I'm folding everyone's clothes. That was a living hell.

"What are we leaving here?" Andy asked as he folded a pair of my jeans and placed it in one of the cardboard boxes. I looked around as Alex grinned at me.

"Quite a lot of things because Alex is living here when we leave" I answered as Andy nodded and carried on with folding the clothes and I picked out the ones that we would be wearing for this week.

"We're getting the television, though" Andy warned Alex, receiving an eye roll. I grinned as I tapped it with my index finger.

"It's gotten me through some tough times" I sighed as though I was reminiscing. The tough times I was referring to were the times when I was bored and had no one to hang on with. So, pretty much all the time until I met Andy. Alex sighed loudly as he leaned back on the sofa that he wouldn't have to sleep on for much longer since he was getting mine.

"We should make the guys and Sammi come round so we can all say goodbye to the flat" Andy sighed as though he was being sentimental, but Alex knew better than to think too highly of Andy.

"And then get drunk?" He asked. Why didn't I think of that? Of course there's going to be drink involved if everyone was together in the same room for long enough.

"Hell yeah" Andy laughed as he cellotaped one of the boxes shut and placed it near the door. I grinned, but didn't say anything else on the matter. I wasn't really in the mood to interfere in Alex's plans of getting drunk.

"Always the same" I said grinning at Alex as he shrugged. Rolling my eyes, I folded for what felt like the million top. I shoved it in one of the boxes and headed over to the small kitchen and opened the fridge. "Does anyone want a drink?" I asked. A mumble of yeses came from the two as I pulled out two bottles of water and tossed it over to them. They both caught it and took a swig as I grabbed myself one.

"Do we have to pack anymore today?" Andy asked and I shook my head.

"We've got plenty of time to finish and we need to go back to the hotel to get some of the clothes that you left there" I answered. He nodded once as he lay down on the bed, pulling me down with him and wrapping me up in his arms. I let my hand rest on his wrist, desperate to keep him near me for as long as possible.

"Should we get the guys to come round the day before we move?" Andy asked and I nodded as Alex grinned, the mere thought of alcohol making him excited. I flicked through the channels, bored as hell when Alex suggested something that would give me and Andy something to do.

"Why don't you guys go shopping for furniture?" Alex suggested. I looked up at Andy and he shrugged, telling me that it was up to me for shopping. I nodded once as he loosened is his grip on me so I could reach for my shoes. I pulled them on as Andy grabbed my car keys off the counter, near the oven. I took them off him, not allowing him to drive my car and headed out, Andy hot on my trail. We thundered down the stairs until we got to the first floor and headed straight out the block of flats. Andy sitting next to me, I drove down to the shopping centre that harboured a few furniture shops that would probably have the things that we needed.

We wandered in to the first on we saw and looked round. We got strange looks of people for even entering a place that was full of happy couples. Andy was wearing his warpaint today and had practically made me put on a thick coating of eyeliner. We looked at some of the beds and tested them out lying on the mattresses to see if they were comfortable. A salesman practically bounded over to us, desperate to try and make a sale. We talked for what seemed like hours about things that made me bored to tears, but I listened and pretended to be having the time of my life. We wound up buying a bed that would get delivered to the new house the day after we moved in. It looks like Andy and I will have to sleep on the floor for the first night.

"We're going to need a dresser" I sighed, knowing about the pile of clothes that didn't fit in my wardrobe and Andy's clothes were about to be added to it. We looked through their collection and tried to find something that would suit us best, but there didn't seem to be much in this place. I tried my hardest to find anything that could work in the house, but there was nothing. We left that shop and headed for one that was a five minute walk away. From the outside, it seemed small, but as soon as you walked in it felt like you were in a warehouse. I looked around for about five minutes before I found the perfect thing for the house. It was a small, black beside dresser with a larger dresser by its side, both belonging to a set. As soon as I saw it, I instantly started thinking about how great it would look in the house. Andy followed where my eyes were staring and when he saw it; I knew he fell in love too.

"How much is it?" He asked, looking at the shelf below to see if there was a price tag underneath it and sure enough, there was. I bent down to take a look at what ridiculous price it was and what I found shocked the life out of me.

"That is a bargain" I laughed as I motioned for one of the guys who worked here to come over. He smiled as he walked over to us, glad that he was getting customers.

"Can someone take this to our car?" Andy asked and he nodded as we headed to the counter to pay for the amazing purchase. I handed the money over and headed over to the guy who was carrying the larger dresser with Andy. I picked up the bedside table and headed over to where the car was parked. The smaller dresser managed to fit in the boot, but Andy had o sit in the back with the front seat pushed forward so we could fit the dresser in the car. We waved our thanks to the man as I put the keys in the car. Starting her up, I laughed at how well this day had went. A few years ago I would say that this day would never arrive. Why do I deserve to go out with my boyfriend to buy furniture for our new house? I have no idea, but I'm not complaining.

After a ten minute drive, we arrived back at the flats. I hurried up the stairs with the small bedside table and placed it on top of the bed, Alex sending me confused looks as I ran back down to help Andy with the other piece of furniture. The lifts were broken today so we were pretty much screwed, climbing twelve flights of stairs with a dresser balanced between the two of us. After much time and a lot of sweating we managed to get it onto our floor. We pushed it up the corridor and through the door to see that Alex hadn't moved a muscle.

"A little help would be greatly appreciated" I commented as I pushed it further in, hitting the couch that Alex was sitting on, making him fall off it and onto the floor.

"That was a bitchy move" He complained as he picked himself up off the floor and grumbled some more insults that I couldn't hear. I had a feeling it was a good thing that I couldn't hear what insults he had for me this time.

"It was a tactful move" Andy laughed as he pushed it with me, finally getting it far enough into the room so we could close the door and gain our privacy back. Alex shot us an annoyed look at the fact that a large dresser was sitting in the middle of the flat.

"Why did you get that now when it's just going to be in our way for a week?" Alex asked. Good point? Yes. Annoying? Another yes. I glared hard at Alex for the sheer fact that he was right and I was wrong.

"I don't care. Someone else could have bought it by next week" I explained, completely making it up on the spot, hoping that everything I was saying made perfect sense. Judging by Alex's face, it sounded fine.

"How are we meant to fit everyone in for the party next week?" Alex asked, a hint of complaining adding to the annoyance. I glared again as I pushed it closer to the bathroom.

"It can go there and we just have to squeeze past to get to the bathroom. Now you have all the room in the world to party" I explained, receiving an eye roll from Alex and a chuckle from Andy. Alex and I bickered like this all the time and to most people around us it sounded comical, but to us, it was the most annoying thing in the world.

"I suppose that'll be okay" Alex teased, but I ignore him, not giving him the satisfaction of boiling my blood. He finally stayed quiet as Andy and I sat on the bed, Andy checking his watch.

"Do you need to be somewhere?" I asked as I looked over at his watch to check what time it was.

"I'm going back to the hotel" He sighed, getting up off the bed, bending down to kiss my cheek.

"Are you not staying over tonight?" I asked. He had stayed over for most nights except for the fight. It was like he had already moved in and I was beginning to assume that.

"It won't be as good when we really move in together if I already spend every night here" He explained and it made perfect sense. He walked over to the door and I followed, stopping just when he was about to leave. He placed his hand on the back of my neck and pulled me towards him, my hand grabbing his elbow and touching his lips with my own. It was so gentle, it was almost teasing, but it was enough to satisfy us both. "I'll see you in six days" and with that, he was gone.

Hmm, it looks like this is only going to have ten chapters. Sorry about that, but it's the way that's going to make this story the best it can be. Hope you enjoyed and please review!
