MATT'S POV

After refreshing Sage and Jay had found a place so we all decided to meet up in the lobby since they wanted to wait. Angie and I sat at the mini bar with Alex, Paige, Padge & Veronika, and Moose. Sage and Jay were at the restaurant getting things taken care of since we were a group of 11 but ordered a space for 12. We were waiting on Dani, and MJ who said they were coming but it took awhile.

"I want a shot, who wants one with me?" Moose said looking around.

We all looked at Moose.

"All of us, except Angie" Alex said.

"Alright" He said ordering all of us a shot except Angie.

"Why not one for you?" I asked.

"She doesn't drink when everyone else wants to drink" Paige said.

"What Paige is trying to say is that, I'm the sober one while everyone around me does shots because I don't want another 2010, right Alex?" I said as Paige looked away guilty.

"Right" Alex said looking away as well.

"What happened in 2010?" Veronika asked as we all looked at Angie.

"I think that's something we shouldn't discuss, at least not when everyone's about to have a shot" I laughed.

"Alright here we go" Moose said with a tiny platter of 6 shots. He began passing them out.

"Are you sure?" I asked her as she smiled.

"Enjoy yourself" she said.

"To you beautiful people sitting right here with and to those who are late" Alex said as they all cheered and took their shot.

Just then MJ and Dani came out the elevator.

"Fuck! Hide the shots! Hide it" Paige said gathering up.

"Come on" Angie said as we all got up and walked to MJ and Dani.

"Sage said it's down the street, let's go" MJ said. We all looked guilty especially Alex, "everything okay?"

"Yeah, no problem" Alex said as we all looked at Alex before MJ and Dani made their way out and we followed.

As they walked, Angie and I walked behind.

"What's wrong with shots?" I asked.

"Back in 2010 the boys got pretty fucked up, one was suppose to be sober and babysit the rest but none stayed sober and they tore up the bus, fought, and didn't make it back to their rooms, next day we had to miss a show because we couldn't find them" she said, "and since then MJ don't want them taking shots or drinking when they dont tell them, and it's hard to tell him because MJ doesn't want them drinking but I'm sure they wanna let loose so at least two of us try to stay sober, usually it's me and MJ or me and Sage, but knowing Sage, he's already taking shots"

"Ah, I see" I said as she held my hand, "You never told me what was wrong earlier"

She looked at me and smiled.

"I'll tell you tonight, just have fun for now" she smiled.

Once we got to the restaurant we walked to the back where there was Sage and Jay sitting down.

"Finally! We didn't order since we didn't want to let you guys off" Jay said as we began taking seats at the table.

Padge and I pulled out the seats for Angie and Veronika as they sat we pushed in and took a seat next to them. I looked at Angie and smiled.

"What are you going to have?"

"I think some Yakitori" she said as we began with drinks.

We all had a shot of sake, a shot of everclear vodka along side with water and tea. Myself, Angie, MJ, Sage, and Paige couldn't have much caffeine but we decided we'd all have a drink of sake as along as we had water. However MJ stayed completely sober.

"This is to just touring with you boys and girls, it's been a fun run thus far. We have nearly a month to go so we go this! This is officially our last day off until then let's keep this up. I know we miss our families but you know how the game is played. I love you girls" Sage said looking to Veronika and Angie, "And I love you fucking assholes" he said looking at us guys, "So cheers to everyone, even to MJ who hasn't had a proper drink since who can remember" he joked.

We all cheered and took our sake then took the shot of vodka except Angie. She gave her shot to me so I took both shots and drank some tea.

After the entire drinks we began ordering. We basically all ordered the same Makizushi, except Veronika and I, Veronika ordered a vegan rice and corn with mixed fruits and different veggie, I ordered a okonomiyaki, as Angie got yakitori. Once putting in our order we just sat around the table.

"What is everyone's plans after tour?" Moose asked.

"I'll go back to Novosibirsk, maybe call up a friend, visit family and vacation" Sage said.

"I'm back to dad duty, got my little girl and little boy back in Wales" Jay said and looked at Veronika and Padge.

"Ah mate. We're going back to Wales, stay at my place and head to Ireland for a few days and head off on vacation" Padge said while taking Veronika's hand.

"I think Melanie and I are just gonna spend some quality time with our little one" Alex said.

"Same, but with Jade and I. I need to give my girl some quality girl time since she's home taking care of our little ones" Dani said, "you guys?"

"Be with Mariah, I don't know yet. We got the twins to worry about especially now they're six months. I want to plan a family vacation and surprise her with it" MJ said, "Moose?"

Moose began blushing and looked away.

"Ah you got her didn't you, ya wink" Jay said laughing, "Moose got a girl he hasn't asked but they've known each other for so long, he finally asked to be his girlfriend"

Everyone began cheering him on.

"Finally" Veronika laughed as we all looked to Moose.

"Yeah, she agreed, we've dated for a few weeks before tour, I just haven't told you" Moose smiled and blushed, "what about you matt?"

They all looked at Angie and I.

"Go home, chill, get fat, the usual" I laughed.

"And you?" Moose said looking at Angie.

"I'd rather not even answer" she said, "it's too stressful to think about but basically moving out"

"Ah well at least you've come this far" Jay said smiling.

"Well I am glad I did, it's been too long" Angie said as she leaned back.

Once our food came we ate and devoured it like nothing, in between myself, Sage, Padge, and Paige were taking shots by shots.

"No more" Angie said looking at me worried.

"I'll be fine" I said taking one more.

"Sure" she said turning away from me and began talking to Veronika.

By the time we finished dinner Matt was a bit buzzed. I was a bit upset with him since I did want to talk to him about moving.

"No more" I said looking at Matt worried as if he wasn't okay.

"I'll be fine" he said taking one more shot of vodka.

By this time, he had at least taken 8 including the sake glass that he had earlier at the hotel and before dinner.

"Sure" I said turning away to Veronika.

"Don't worry, he's not a crazy drinker" she said lightly and smiled, "unlike my Padge here, he's a handful but still careful"

"It's my first time seeing him do more than he's done since touring, I guess it's just the inner asshole in me" I chuckled.

"We better get going, it's near 9 and I want some sleep and you two are drunk" MJ said pointing to Sage and Paige who were too busy talking to Moose, "You got him?" MJ asked looking at Veronika.

"Yeah, I'll be fine with Padge, he's too careful" she smiled as she got up as well as Padge.

"I'm okay" Padge said as Veronika held onto him.

"Angie?" Matt said looking to me.

"Don't worry, let's just go" I said.

Matt and I both got up. Moose began taking his card out.

"I got this" MJ said

"No it's fine, I can pay, I got it" Sage slurred and tried to reach into his pocket.

"Too late" MJ said giving his card to the lady who left momentarily, "Let's go guys" he said helping Sage up.

Dani and Alex helped Paige up and began helping Paige out the restaurant. Veronika & Padge followed with Jay

"Hurry and get him" I chuckled to Alex who followed a very drunk Paige out with Dani behind him, "I'll see you guys tomorrow"

"Goodnight, thanks MJ! We owe you one" Dani said walking out.

"Why say that when I won't accept it" MJ laughed as Dani flipped him off.

The lady returned with a receipt and MJs card.

"Ready?" Matt asked as he walked towards the exit.

"Moose and I got Sage" MJ said waving us out.

We walked out taking the same way in to go out. Matt wasn't much staggering although he was undoubtedly drunk.

We began walking as the rest walked in front. Moments later MJ, Moose, and Sage were behind us. They kept Sage in front of them since he was drunk. Unfortunately we had to keep Paige and Sage separated since they tend to start a fight when they're drunk but that's just how guys were.

We strolled up to the hotel and into the lobby. Rather than taking the lift with the rest of the guys and girl we took an empty one waiting for Sage, MJ, and Moose.

"Are you okay?" Matt asked looking at me.

"Yeah I'm fine. Just a bit tired" I lied leaning against the elevator.

Just then the elevator closed since we didn't see MJ, Sage, or Moose yet. Well up to the 28th level.

"I'm a bit upset at the moment. I'm not tired at all, and I'd like you to know that" I said as Matt looked at me with a smile.

"I'm sorry, I just had too much to drink. I don't mean this at all" he said leaning back as well.

"I need to take my jacket off" he said as we both laughed.

"Take it off then" I chuckled as he struggled to take his jacket off, "Why did you even wear a jacket if it's a bit warm out?" I asked while helping him take his jacket off.

Once he had his jacket off he put it around me and leaned back. The elevator doors finally opened and we walked out.

"Come on. Let's go" I said taking Matt's hand and walking to the room.

Once we got into the room I began looking for my jammies as Matt fell on the bed.

"Matt?" I asked as he began snoring, "don't!"

Shit! Well he is out already. I took my bag and began changing into my jammies. After finishing I took Matts bag and found his nightwear. I took it out his bag and walked to him.

"Matt?" I said shaking him but nothing, "fuck"

I took his tank top and pulled him up towards me. I began unbuttoning his shirt and tried putting on his tank top but I couldn't do that so I took his shorts and began unbuttoning his jeans and taking them off.

"If you want it just say it"

I stood up only to see Matt up and watching me.

"I was trying to get you changed, since you're up you gotta do it" I said while handing his shorts to him.

He slowly sat up and took his jeans off and putting his shorts on. After that he took his shirt completely off and laid back.

"Are you okay?" I asked as he didn't say anything back to me other than a grunt, "Okay goodnight"

I pulled the sheets from under him and covered him. I laid on the bed but turned away from him. Ah what a night to have this man.
