Come on

Jess and I stood downstairs in front of the apartment building, waiting for someone to open the door. After Jess rang the bell the third time, we both looked at each other.

"We understood correctly that Nick wanted to celebrate at home, didn't we?" I thought about it for a moment, but then nodded. I was sure he said that.

"I think so." Jess rang the bell again. It didn't open again and Jess looked up at the house. Then went around the corner and I looked after her, confused. What was she up to now?

"Well, I think there is a little light in the kitchen." I heard her call before she was back with me.

"Do you have your cell phone with you?" I asked her and she took it out of her pocket without answering me. Dialed a number, I put her cell phone to my ear and looked at me waiting and then shaking my head.

"I'm still trying with Sven." I nodded. But even with him she shook her head after a few seconds.

"What about David?" Then she wanted to know. I shook my head too.

" He is not here yet. He was still at home with Danni when I left. ”Jess sighed.

"Okay, I'll ring one more time and if you don't answer then we'll go. After all, we've been waiting for almost twenty minutes. Okay? ”Jess nodded hesitantly when I asked her. I rang the bell and held my finger on it for a while. They would probably hear that.

But nothing happened and I looked at Jess with a shrug.

" Let's go. It's no use. ”Jess snorted.

"Great!" She walked angrily away from the house, over to the other side of the street and I quickly ran after her.

"You don't want to go home now, do you?" Jess asked when I came next to her.

"What do you want to do?"

"Hmm." I heard her thinking out loud.

“Let's go to the cocktail bar. It's not far from here. Do you feel like it? ”I nodded. Why not? I didn't feel like spending the evening at home.

"For me." I said then and we went towards the city.

All the way to the cocktail bar, Jess was very upset. I tried to calm her down as we sat down. Then we ordered first. I also felt like an alcoholic cocktail. Because I thought it sucks as much as Jess did, but I tried not to let it show.

After a few minutes we saw the two girls, called Sabrina and Kim, who were also often in the club, were sitting here. They greeted us, so to my amazement, Jess offered to join us. The two of them told us that they didn't feel like going to the club today because there were only two of them. Because a couple of her friends were invited on a birthday. Jess and I looked at each other right away, of course. She probably thought the same as I did, then told me about Nick's birthday and that nobody had opened the door for us.

After a few more minutes, we all ordered a second cocktail. It was getting really funny and I almost forgot about my birthday until Jess's cell phone rang. She answered and the three of us listened to her on the phone.

"Oh hey ... and are you celebrating? ..." Ah ... so it was really someone who called from the birthday.

"No, Jolina and I are in a cocktail bar with two girls." She said that now a bit bitchier.

"We were already there ..... Jahaaa ...... No, we rang the bell a few times, but nobody opened it." Jess remained quite calm for her circumstances. Which surprised me a little. I would like to know who was on the phone there. The three of us continued to listen to her.

"Yes, and we called too, and now we didn't want to let the evening spoil because of YOU .... yes ... Hi, happy birthday." Her voice immediately became even more loving. So she hadn't phoned Nick, he apparently only answered the phone now.

"Please ..... but we were there .... in a cocktail bar with two girls." She picked up again and the two "girls" looked at me with a smile.

"In the city .... as far as I am concerned, if Jolina is still up for it .... yes, yes, I will persuade her .... but not that nobody will open it again .... yes, yes, see you soon ... . bye ... bye bye. "Jess hung up and smiled.

“Sven called me back and later Nick answered it. The two said they didn't hear it rang. It was also pretty loud in the background. You were wondering where we were staying, Sven saw that I called. You want us to come now. ”I shook my head with a smile.

" Oh man. Then finish your glass. ”Jess nodded and then looked at the other two.

"But you were lucky again that they called." Sabrina said with a smile. Jess nodded and then looked at me. As she finished her glass. So that we both looked at each other and then she looked back at them and then back at me. So that I also looked at them.

"What are you still up to?" I asked her and Sabrina grinned.

"Drink!" She exclaimed and we all laughed.

"Come with

me ." "We?" Kim asked. Jess nodded.

"Yes, come with me, your friends are there too and you know the others too, so why not." The two friends looked at each other.

"Nick doesn't mind if we bring some more pretty girls with us." I said with a smile, so that the others laughed.

"Well, I'll be happy." Sabrina said and Jess looked at Kim.

"You're coming too." Kim shook her head, smiling.

"Okay, okay. We're in. ”Jess nodded satisfied.

We finished our drinks, paid and then the four of us went off.

When we stood in front of the door of the flat, Jess rang the bell again and I looked at her.

"Watch out, and now nobody opens." Jess narrowed her eyes. She didn't think that was so funny. The other two laughed until Kim pushed against the door.

"It's open, isn't it?" She pushed harder against the door and it was actually open and Jess looked at me.

"They must have opened them." I nodded and then we went in and heard the loud music in the hallway.

"No wonder they didn't hear anything." Kim said with a laugh and closed the door behind her. We went up a flight of stairs and then rang the doorbell again upstairs and it was opened directly. Nick stood in the doorway.

"Hey," he smiled at us and moved to one side so we could enter.

"Well birthday girl."

"Hey honey, it's cool that you came back." He smiled and Jess nodded, then walked past him and turned back.

"We brought two more friends with us." Nick looked at the two of them and greeted them too.

"Come in." The two would go to Jess. I smiled at Nick and hugged him.

"Hi," I let go of him again and gave him my present. I had been thinking all afternoon about what to give him. Until I turned on the radio and waited in vain for a good song and then remembered Nick singing on the way back from his mother. Because I think he had told me that he didn't have the new album from this band ´´Mob Szene´´. So I went into town and got the new album.

"Thanks." He took the CD from me and looked at it.

"Sorry, we ran out of gift paper." Nick shook his head with a smile and gave me a kiss on the cheek.

"Come in." Then he closed the door.

"Make yourself at home." We girls all nodded and went into the living room. I looked around first. It was pretty full, there were a lot of people I didn't know. Jess saw Sven who was looking on the chair and talking to Jenna and then gave me a dirty look and walked over to him. I had to smile and followed her. She hugged Sven and I greeted Jonas and introduced him to the two girls. Then we went to Sven too.

"Hey," I greeted him so that he gave me a hug too.

"Hey, it's good that you came." I nodded in the hug. Then Jess introduced him to Sabrina and Kim. Jenna was still standing next to Sven and Tara had now joined them. So I politely said hello to them too. Then Nick came to us.

"Where can I put my jacket?" I asked.

"You can put it in my room." I nodded and took the jacket from Jess and then went into Nick's room and laid it over a chair and then went back out. There I met Noah.

"Hey Jolina, I haven't seen you yet." I smiled at him.

"I just got here too."

"Then you will need something to drink." He grinned at me. It was funny, when we met, he didn't like me for some reason and often let me feel that, but since Jenna showed up again, he got along really well with me.

"Gladly." I said with a smile and went into the kitchen with him. He gave me a glass of champagne.

"To celebrate the day." I laughed and then Jess came over to us with the other two. The five of us stayed together in the kitchen for a while until we had finished our drinks. Then Jess and I left the room. After Noah had given us another glass of champagne and Jess had seen challenging me when I hesitated to take it.

Later Jess saw that Sven put two bottles of red liquid for ´´short´´ on the table and took out cards. Jess and I looked at each other at the same time. It reminded us of the night I first went to Nick's. Jess looked at me again and then wiggled her eyebrows.

"Shall we?" I nodded with a smile and we went to Sven. He looked up when he saw us.

"Will you take part?" He asked, we both nodded and sat down each on one of the armchairs of the armchair where Sven was sitting and played with Sven, Jonas and two other boys I didn't know. When Jess and I had already had a few ´´short´´ drinks I heard that David was coming with Danni and stopped playing to say hello to them. Then I went to the kitchen. Since I noticed that I was already slightly drunk.

I was about to reach for the bottle of water when a hand held me tight. I turned to the side and saw that it was Nick.

"You don't want to drink any water now." I smiled at him and shrugged my shoulders so that he let go of me.

"Before I'm completely full." When I said that, Nick smiled and came closer to me. He still seemed sober.

"It depends." He breathed in his deep voice. That gave me goosebumps for a short time. Then I started laughing.

"What about you, haven't you had anything to drink?" I asked him.

"A beer, I didn't mean to drink that much." I nodded.

“Exactly and I wanted to take care of you. That's why I have to stop now. ”Nick shakes his head.

"You don't need that, okay? I want you to have fun, I know you can have fun without alcohol. But still. Besides, Toni is here and keeps an eye on me. ”I looked at him for a moment.

“Okay ... but I still want a glass of water. And when I drink you drink too. I'll take care of you and you take care of me. ”Nick hesitated briefly but then nodded.

"Okay, but I'm not overdoing it, I promise." I nodded. I had just thought that it might not be such a bad idea if I saw how much Nick could drink without going crazy or if he could hold himself back so that he could still manage and that he could prove to me that he was had really changed and only THIS is how I could see it. We both smiled at each other and Nick took the bottle and turned it on. Took a glass and poured a little into it.

"Here you are, I've got a quick one." Jess interrupted Nick. Who smiled. Then she put it in my hand.

“I had to fight hard for it. Sven didn't want to give me anything at first. ”I shook my head. Then I saw that Jess was looking at the bottle Nick was holding in his hand and then at the glass that was in front of me.

"You didn't want to drink any water now, did you?" She hissed at me. I shrugged again. Jess sighed.

"Nobody will say anything if you're a little drunk too." I laughed and looked at Nick.

"Where she is right, she is right." That was clear. He raised one of his eyebrows, so I nodded and he turned the bottle back on.

"Well, persuaded." Then I quickly drank the ´´short´´, so that Jess grinned at me and also drank hers quickly, so that we put the glasses on the table together.

"You will drink the next one with me!" Nick said and Jess nodded.

"Come on, then, before Sven drinks everything." We followed her into the living room. But not without that I quickly took the glass and Nick looked at me.

"Just to drink after, in case I don't like what you're drinking." Nick just smiled at me and I followed him and secretly took a sip from the glass. In the living room we sat on the sofa.

"Hey Sven, let something overgrown you have to share with us." Jess exclaimed. Sven turned to her.

"We're drinking brotherhood right now," he informed us. Jess laughed and took the bottle he was holding from him and filled three small glasses.

"We can do that too!" She pressed one of the three glasses into my hand.

"Only drink half." She said to me I nodded slightly and did it. Then we put the two half-empty glasses back on the table and looked at each other.

"We drink to sisters creates." Said Jess smile and I agreed with her smiling. Then Jess leaned forward and kissed me briefly on the lips. When she leaned back she winked at me and turned to Sven and Nick and handed them their glasses.

"And now you."

"Forget it!" They both shouted at the same time and I had to laugh.

"Come on, don't get in line." I helped Jess.

"Absolutely not." Nick hissed and Sven looked at Jess and took her glass from the table and gave it to her and hacked into her.

"Come on." He just said and grinned at Jess who smiled. Then the two drank and kissed each other after I noticed that Jess had hesitated for a moment. I would not have expected this.

"But you cheated your way out." I said to Sven who nodded and handed me mine.

“Forget it!” I would never kiss Sven, even if it was just a game. Everyone started to laugh, including Sven, so Jenna and Tara joined them.

"Oh, that's not just a short one." He was just about to hack me when I looked at him with wide eyes and then noticed how he stopped. Out of the corner of my eye I noticed Jess, who bumped into Nick, who then held Sven's arm.

"If I'm not good enough for you, then ... Nick." He handed the glass to Nick, who then took his hand from Sven. I looked at Nick, who said nothing, just looked at me. Either I would say no to him and then I would leave Nick standing there stupid or I would say yes and everyone could see me kissing him. Then I noticed Jenna out of the corner of my eye, as she said something to Tara who then looked at me. So I smiled at Nick and toasted him. We both finished the glass and put it down and I saw Sven looking at Jess and then winking at her. So he didn't want to kiss me at all. He had planned that. But it was too late now. Nick leaned forward and I met him. I closed my eyes and immediately felt his warm lips on mine. It was just a kiss on the mouth without either of us moving our lips.
