Chapter 121 - Many Handsome Men (1/2)
”Aren't you overreacting?” Jen asked as she discreetly pinched Laura's arm.
”How did they come? Does Lucas know them?” Laura asked after coming back to her senses.
”Daniel is his older brother” Jen explained and saw Laura's eyes widen.
”How could you keep something like this from me?!” Laura half shouted feeling aggrieved. It meant that she could have met him sooner.
[A/N: You literally came two days ago]
”I didn't do it intentionally, and it did not come up at all” Jen replied as she watched Nancy get excited when she saw the 'celebrities'. Leanna and Rachel were much calmer and greeted them normally.
Surprisingly Laura did not try to make a move to go talk to the guys, she was suddenly acting shy. Jen looked at Laura and shook her head but also did not make any moves to go talk to the guys.
”Why don't you go talk to them” Jen asked.
”How can I? I'm so excited I don't think if words would come out of-” Laura did not complete her sentence since it was like everyone was looking in their direction.
They didn't know why but Jason had pointed to Jen to show his friends that she was Lucas' girlfriend which made them all look in their direction. In short, Laura had chosen the wrong person to stand next to.
Jason walked towards them with a big smile that almost made Laura cry again greatly amusing Jen. If she knew Laura could be managed in the presence of Jason he should have asked Lucas to ask him to pick them up from the airport.
”Who's your friend?” Jason asked as he looked at the equally tall red haired Laura who was standing next to Jen.
”This is my friend Laura, Laura this is Jason Lucas' second brother. You know him as Daniel Zate” Jen said adding the last part intentionally.
”Nice to meet you” Jason said and stretched his hand for a shake. Laura stared at his hand still frozen on the spot.
”She was your fan from your first stage, please understand” Jen explained in a lower voice making Jason raise his eyebrows in understanding.
”Is that so? Then I should be giving you a hug no?” Jason said with an even brighter smile.
Laura's eyes grew even wider when she heard him. Besides Jen, Rachel was aware of how much Laura liked the boygroup so she too watched in amusement at her interaction with Jason.
”Is it okay?” Jason asked as he opened his arms. Without a proper reply, Laura hugged him making him chuckle.
”Jen, I think I had my last shower this afternoon” Laura said unconsciously making Jen and Jason laugh. Jason called the other two guys and they all hugged Laura and by the time they all greeted each other Laura was completely pumped full of excitement. Which was a cause for worry.
”James?” Lucas asked after they had distributed the girls' luggage to take into the house.
”Still in the car” Jason replied not caring anymore. He was tortured by him on their trip their so he did not feel like seeing his face.
Lucas went to the passenger's side of the Range and opened the door expecting a sleeping James. However, James was on a call and the door suddenly opening almost made him drop his phone.
”Handle it, I won't be available till Monday so don't call me for such trivial matters. If they don't cooperate stall for time” James said and cut the call.
”Work?” Lucas asked.
”Mmh, are you all done being noisy?” James asked looking at Lucas with a heavy lidded gaze.
”Mmh, let's go inside” Lucas said and took the empty wine bottle that James was holding. James got off the car nimbly and shut the door.
