"You, my friend, has disappeared for a long time." Oli drunkenly grabs Niall by the shoulder.
"You're drunk already? We just got here-"
"You," Oli stabs his finger on Niall's chest. "Just got here. We've been here for two hours." He says stumbling around motioning to the rest of the gang.
Niall rolls his eyes pushing Oli aside as he leads Lexi to the bar.
"This place isn't so bad. At least I don't have to scream for you to hear me." Lexi says while two pints of beer are slid their way and soon James pops up in front of them.
"Niall! Haven't seen you for a while. Where have you been?" James opens his arms.
"I haven't been here for three days." He laughs.
"And that's a long time! I thought we agree that if I brought in a bed you'd live here."
Lexi laughs at the comment, stretching her neck around. "Well where is it? The bed?" She asks.
James shrugs. "Dunno, somewhere in Finland I think last time I tracked it."
Lexi turns to Niall, chuckling at James' response.
James leaves the couple alone after seeing Niall's subtle winks and hints, giving the two space to talk.
"I like him. He's funny." Lexi smiles.
Niall shrugs. "So how-" He cuts himself off seeing her lifts her tall glass and chuck her beer in one go. "Okay..." he laughs as she wipes her red lips.
"Haven't gone out for so long. I got excited." She laughs. "Sorry, you were saying?" She asks and he waves her off.
"Another pint?" He motions at her glass.
"Yeah!" She cheers. Niall pushes her glass in James' direction chuckling when Lexi slides it back to her.
"Wait, no. Do it how Thor would do it." She raves before lifting the glass and slams it down the table. "I want another!" She announces.
"Oh my god." Niall shakes his head as James walks to them grinning.
"I have so many things to say." He nudges Niall and he gives James a look.
James only laughs taking away the empty glass leaving the two alone again. Niall turns to Lexi and she looks down laughing.
"I think he likes me." She grins.
"Pretty hard not too." He tells her.
Before she has a chance to reply a body crashes to him spilling half his drink out.
