We've decided to set an ending to this story. Our plan is to make it to chapter 60 and then end it. We are not setting an ending to this because we don't like the story or anything of the sort. We still love this story and it is still very much our love child and we hope you enjoy what we have still in store for you.





I parked the car, casually looking around to see if I recognized any of the other vehicles. Luckily Alex and I had discussed the parking situation when I called him on Sunday and put together a guest list of sorts. By Sunday night, I had called all the people that I knew had met Ryan, sans Matt of course, and most of them said they could make it. I asked each of them to bring a snack, since they were my friends and I knew I they wouldn't mind. Basically I told them, instead of gifts, bring something to eat or drink. I hope it worked as planned...

Spencer helped out a ton, he looked like a party planner when I went over to his house Monday night after my orientation. He was all excited to be helping out and guaranteed that he would have everything over there. Ryan and I spent the most of the day together. First to the mall to do some shopping for him, then we took a walk at the park to stretch out his new cast free leg. Finally we ate dinner at his parents, who gave Ryan about five plates of leftovers from the dinner.

As we walked up to the condo, I texted Alex, telling him we were there, then stopped. "Look Ryan." And pointed up to the sky. Alex had asked me to stall when I got a hold of him, so he could make sure everyone was hidden. "You can see a star." I titled my head and pointed, shielding my eyes from the utility light. "Or is that a planet?" When he walked over to look at it, I wrapped my arms around his stomach, pressing his back into my chest. "I hope you are having a great birthday. I can't wait to give you your real present once we get inside." I nibbled on his ear as I playfully thrust into his backside.

I loved that Alex and I had our own condo, even though Alex hadn't even seen it yet. I'd had so much help and fun moving in and setting everything up. We did some painting and made some of the rooms colors other than the white that it was when we bought it. My bedroom was now dripping in deep red with white and black accents. The bed was large and commanded attention. It was my dream bedroom that my parents never let me have in their home and I was in love with it. We had painted Alex's bedroom black per his request and he'd finish furnishing it when he got home, but we'd moved his bed in there and had it made all the same.

The rest of the apartment came together, rooms painted and furnished in the style Alex and I both enjoyed, touches of home, touches of him, touches of myself. It was perfect and when I had woken up there that morning I was happier than I had been in a while, even though I didn't really have any food in the house and I had to go to my parents for breakfast, still, it was my new home and it was mine, mine and Alex's.

Between getting the condo up and ready and my birthday and time with my family and Brendon it had been a whirlwind the last couple days. I mean, we got home from LA on Sunday to find my parents had already done a lot of the painting and moving of stuff in. We helped as much as we could with the painting and left everything to dry. Monday it was cast off with Spence and then back to the condo to continue setting up, plus time with Brendon and Spence and no grocery shopping because I still wasn't staying in the condo since my bedroom wasn't 100% finished. Yesterday we finished my bedroom and most of the rest of the rooms except for what Alex would do on his own when he got home. I spent the first night in my condo and then had a day with my boyfriend and family. Three days and so much had changed. And now it was my birthday, another year older.

I chuckled softly and leaned back against Brendon's body, sighing softly. "I dunno what it is, Bren, but if you can't wait to give me my real present, why are we still out here instead of in there with you giving it to me?" I grinned and turned to capture his lips with mine. Deepening the kiss, I turned in his arms and wrapped mine around him as I pushed him toward the door and up against the wall beside it. I continued kissing him for a few minutes before pulling away and grinning.

"Eh, eh!" I shook my head as I brought Ryan back to me. "You can't just kiss me then pull away!" I smirked, gripping the back of his neck so he could lean into me, most of our weight against the wall. I continued to kiss him as I heard some shuffling near where we parked. Opening my eyes, I saw Steve walking towards us. I shot my arm out and pointed around the corner.

Ryan pulled back and gave me a weird look. "Sorry, there was like this HUGE bug thing coming to attack us! Where were we?" I pressed a kiss to his lips again as I heard my phone ring twice in my pocket, which was Alex and my code for them being ready. I pulled back and checked my phone, so it didn't look suspicious. "That's weird, it was the smoothie place." Shrugging, I ran my hand through Ryan's hair, fixing it so he didn't look like we just made out.

"And I know I am anxious for your gift, but I realize, we haven't quite christened your front porch yet, and since it isn't too hot, we should take advantage of the nice weather." I gestured around us and saw Steve standing in view again. Throwing my arms for him to hide, I squealed. "But, yea, maybe we should go in now, that bug is trying to attack us!" I laughed. "Do you have the key or something?"

I looked at Brendon weird and chuckled a little. "I don't see a bug, Bren. Are you seeing things?" I put my hand to his forehead to see if he was feverish before pulling back again and pulling my keys out of my pocket. My house key was flashy and sexy, well okay, it was flashy because it was brand new since the condos were all brand new. "And yeah, I have my key. But I like the idea of christening the front stoop since I forgot to put on the porch light and no one can see us."

I grinned and pressed in against him again, running my lips along his without actually kissing him. I ran our noses against each other's and then smiled and murmured. "I bet...if we tried...we could have sex right here and no one would know but us. It is dark enough and I can barely even see you, Bren. No one would see us from the parking lot and we both know Alex is in LA so it isn't like he'll be coming home until tomorrow. And Spence...I think Spence said he had plans tonight so we won't have to worry about him stopping by."

Tilting my chin forward, I bit gently onto his lower lip and tugged at it just as gently before pressing into him again and this time connecting our lips in a kiss, trying to keep it slow and languid but yet full of promise and enticement. There must have just been something about it being my birthday that was making me want to be absolutely crazy enough to have sex on my front porch. I groaned softly against his mouth and kissed him harder.

I groaned into the kiss. First with lust, then with frustration. Shit. I wanted to strip him down and have sex with him right here, but dammit if we didn't have people waiting inside for us. I pulled back and licked my lips, breathing heavily from the kisses. Biting my lower lip, I connected our lips once more. I knew if I didn't stop in like .002 seconds I would be sporting a boner in no time, and yea, probably him too. And I don't think he would be too happy when we open the door and he was the center of attention, his tent being the second.

Sighing, I leaned my head back onto the wall, praying to whoever that I had the strength to step away from him right now and carry out the night. I really, really, really, like really wanted to take him up on the offer. But, shit. They were ready inside, and I didn't want to keep them all night. But Ryan, Ryan was rarely like this, and fuck he was hot and I could see it in his eyes.

"Why, why don't we." I removed his hands from me and held both at our sides. "We can like, go inside and get a blanket or something, and like, some bug spray, yea, bug spray, cause I swear there was this giant moth things, and um, if we make it back out here, then, yea, I mean, yea, that sounds fucking perfect Ryan, and I mean, it is your birthday."

I took the keys from his hand and opened the door. Reaching for the light, I let him walk in front of me as I heard a loud. "SURPRISE!!!"

I froze as I stood there in the doorway and looked around at everyone who was in my home. I couldn't believe that Brendon had managed to work out a surprise party in my home. Then my eyes fell on Alex surrounded by all the interns we'd worked with in LA and my jaw dropped. "Lex?! What? I. I thought. Tomorrow?" I frowned because I was making absolutely no sense at all and I knew it. Instead I jumped on him and gave him a huge hug before finally looking at all the other faces around us.

"Oh my god, Jason! Paul!" Each of them got a huge hug as well and I continued on with Damien, Rick, Sarah, Kevin, Jacob, Jessica, Tyler and Peter. All of them were there, every single one of them. After reaching the last of my fellow interns I found myself face to face with Spencer and the grin on his face was absolutely adorable. I pulled him into a hug too because I knew that there was no way at all that everything would have come together without him. After all, Alex had still been in LA and Brendon was far too busy with me to do anything. I murmured into his ear as I hugged him. "Thanks, Spence. I'm sure you did most of this." When I pulled back I placed a quick peck to his lips and then winked before moving on to the rest of Brendon and Spence's band.

I made my way around the first floor of the condo, greeting and hugging everyone, including the guys from Lansdowne that were there, much to my surprise, some of the guys I went to school with, both high school and college (which confused me cause no one had ever met the college guys, but they were there all the same). In the far back of the group I found Pete and Patrick curled up together on the couch sleeping and I just chuckled to myself, deciding to let them be until later, I was guessing they had been busy recording and spirited up to Vegas for the party but were exhausted. William and Gabe were watching over them and talking, joking about how adorable the two sleeping on each other was and they both gave me big hugs and happy birthdays before I returned to find Brendon and Alex holding drinks for me.

"Dude." I nudged Alex. "It took everything in me to walk in that door. Ryan Ross gets REALLY horny on his birthday!" I joked, talking so only Alex and Ryan could hear me though. "So yea!" I handed him a shot, and Alex held the chaser. "This was all Alex's idea, and he threw it all together with Spencer's help. They got to do the dirty work while I got to hang out with you all day!"

I smiled, taking in the crowd, winking at Amanda who was sitting with her girlfriend drooling over the guys from the Fueled bands. Spencer came walking over to us after putting on the music, he too was holding two shots, one for Alex and one for himself. I could already tell this was going to be a long, fun night! Spencer handed a glass to Alex and we all counted to three and tipped the liquid back, swallowing it with one gulp.

"SHIT!" I coughed, shaking my head. "What the fuck was that?"

"Jack Daniel's baby!" Spencer grinned like he had already drank half the bottle.

Shuddering, I licked my lips again, the taste lingering on them. "You know, the only way I will do that again if it is off of the birthday boy here!" I grinned and winked at Ryan, hugging him tightly and letting go after a kiss. Slapping his ass, I nodded. "Go celebrate birthday boy! All these people are here for you!"

I giggled and nodded as Alex threw his arm around my shoulders and directed me to look at the crowd. "So, we all made a decision before you got here and decided one of the most fun things to do with you tonight, even though you're still technically underage, is for you to share a shot with everyone here. So at some point tonight you have to make it to every single person in the room, they'll pour a shot for you and a shot for them and you will share the shot. Sound good?"

My eyes bugged at Alex and I nodded. I was going to be so trashed by the end of the night, it was a good thing the internship was over and I didn't have anywhere I absolutely had to be the next day. I knew I'd be pretty drunk after just the internship group, but then there was Brendon's band and the Fueled guys and the high school and college friends. I had the feeling this would be a night to remember, only I probably wouldn't get to remember much of it.

Gabe stepped up. "I'm calling the next shot because I can't fucking wait until he gets to me, so I'm stepping up. Alex said you liked rum, so I brought a bottle of coconut rum."

Alex cleared his throat. "Yeah, that’s what I forgot to say. I told everyone to bring a bottle of what they're going to share with you. The left overs stay here and start our liquor cabinet that we're going to have to hide unless we ever get cops coming by the place to see if underagers are drinking or anything."

I bit my lip and nodded as Gabe handed what looked like a giant shot glass to me. He had this smirk on his face and I knew that the glass was bigger than normal. It was filled all the way up to the top. He winked at me before lifting his own glass to his lips and I brought mine to my own. Together we knocked back the drink and it slid down rather easily, I was surprised. I really liked how it tasted too. "Mmm...that was good, thanks Gabe!" He pulled me into a hug and kissed my head, telling me I was welcome and went back to William who was standing guard over the still sleeping Pete and Patrick.

I smiled and watched as Steve and James walked up to Ryan with their girlfriends and they all did a shot of Jager, wincing and sputtering after chasing it with Pepsi. Laughing at the thought of a manager, who was underage himself, allowing his band to do illegal activities. What a good role model he was! I winked at Ryan as he walked over to the guys from the internship, then slid down onto the couch.

Closing my eyes for a split second, something, well someone landed on my lap. "BRENDON!" My eyes flung open as my friend Hannah made herself comfortable on my legs. Shaking my head, I pulled her into a hug and asked her where she had been. Her parent's owned a bakery, so they gave us a sweet deal on a cake, well, it was free. "I was showing someone where the liquor store was. He's cute too! Jon Walker. He's here with the Fueled guys!"

"What? Jon's here?" As if on clue, Jon came over and sat down next to me, patting my leg.

"Long time no see, Buddy." He grinned, drinking straight from the Captain Morgan's bottle.

I laughed at him and nodded, then pointed to his drink. "Shouldn't you be saving some of that for Ryan?"

He nodded and looked around. "He's busy at the moment, but yea, plus, I thought we could just pour it on people and do body shots instead of the boring out of the glass thing..."

"Shit, how much have you drank already?" I joked.

"I don't know. We went to a casino first, and yea, free alcohol, so it's all good!" Nodding at him, I turned my attention back to Ryan while Hannah got up to talk to Amanda. "This is a nice place, you know? Lots of space. Do you live here?"

"No, it's Ryan and Alex's place, they just got it last week, this is like the housewarming slash birthday party."

"Cool!" Jon smiled as Will came over and grabbed his bottle, taking a swig.

I groaned as I took yet another drink, already having lost count of how many people I'd made it to and how many shots I'd taken and the night had just started. It seemed like as soon as I finished a shot with one person someone else was tugging me over to them and handing me a shot of something. A lot of them had gotten the message that I liked rum and had brought something in the rum family, others just brought what they liked and I could only imagine what mixing everything that I was being served was going to do to me in the end.

I could already feel myself swimming from all the alcohol when I was tugged down into the lap of someone and handed a shot glass. I tried to focus on who they were but I heard so many other people talking to me that I was distracted. I took the shot anyway before collapsing back against their body and closing my eyes, trying to slow things down a little bit because I knew if the pace kept up the way it had started I would be passed out in about fifteen minutes. I took a moment to appreciate the fact that I could at least think and make sense to myself though.

The feeling of arms wrapping around my waist caused me to come back to myself a little and my head tilted to the side as I tried to figure out whose lap I had decided to use as my chair. A chuckle in my ear told me that I must be pretty drunk and it was probably a pretty interesting sight to see the two of us sitting there like that.

"Oh, Ry, you're trashed already? What about everyone else who hasn't shared a shot with you yet?" I smiled when I realized it was William, his voice was so pretty. When he chuckled again I realized I said that out loud. "Why, thanks Ry, your voice is pretty too. But I think everyone else wants to share your birthday with you too, not just me. Besides, I think Gabe is getting jealous of you sitting in my lap. Maybe you should go over there, looks like Spence has a drink ready to share with you."

Nodding dumbly I managed to get out of his lap, with his help of course, and made my way toward where he motioned, hoping I'd find Spence.

I followed Ryan with my eyes across the room. He was heading towards the front door almost like he was on a mission. I looked around to see if anyone noticed. Spencer was talking to Jacob while Alex was having a conversation with Gabe. Jumping up, I told Jon I would be right back, but I heard him get up after me. I made it over to Ryan and took his shoulder, turning him around slowly.

"Hey Birthday boy, where are you headed?" I laughed as he mumbled something about Spencer. Shit, he was trashed already. I doubt anyone was counting how many shots he had had, but he has talked to almost everyone except Pete and Patrick, so that might be, what, like fifteen people. Poor Ry if he has had that many shots. I did know with some, he took it as a group, so hopefully it wasn't that many.

I reached around his waist and pulled him with me, walking us over to the crowd then stopping. "You know..." I smirked at him as I pulled him to my lips. My fingers traced his shirt, feeling the skin right above his pants. My thumbs rubbed back and forth on the warm flesh while my tongue pressed against his. He tasted of all sorts of alcohol, but deep down, still my Ryan. Taking his bottom lip into my mouth, I moaned quietly as I pressed his lower half into mine, my hands snaking in to knead at his bum.

I mumbled against his lips. "Sorry, I wanted to get that in again before you got too wasted. I love you Ryan, and Happy Birthday."

I giggled and leaned against Brendon, pressing in close against him and nuzzling my face down and in against his neck. I ran my nose gently along the curve of his neck and hip, sighing softly against the skin that was right there in front of me. My head was swimming a little, as were my eyes and everything else and I felt lazy and languid as I just enjoyed the time I had right there against my boyfriend's body.

After a little bit I pulled away enough to look around, my eyebrows furrowing as my eyes scanned the area. "Spence..." I licked my lips three times before continuing, eyebrows furrowing more deeply as I tried to concentrate and organize my thoughts. "Billy Beckett..." I giggled because it just sounded so cute calling William Beckett 'Billy Beckett.' The more I thought about it the more it made me laugh and ended up having a huge giggle fit that caused me to sag against Brendon again.

"Mmmm..." After I'd calmed down, I nuzzled in against Brendon again, having lost my train of thought for a few moments before jolting back. "SPENCER!" My eyes darted around for my boyfriend's best friend as my mind focused on the fact that Spence was supposed to share a shot with me and I was suddenly determined to have that shot.

I took a step away from Brendon before stopping and latching onto Brendon and trying to focus on my boyfriend. "G'tta find Spence! Shot with Spence. Was told he wanted to share w'me. 'Ope he didddn't le-me wiout sharing!" I pouted a little and leaned back against Brendon. "SPENCERRRR???"

My eyes grew huge as I watched Ryan. I gripped his waist, linking through his belt loop to get a hold of him. "We'll find Spencer. Don't worry." I smiled as I saw Spencer talking to Jon and Alex. Walking over to them, I practically carried Ryan. "Hey, Ry is looking for you, something about another shot?" I looked from Spencer to Jon to Alex who were all grinning. "What?" I asked as Jon held up a bottle of tequila, Spencer had a salt shaker, and Alex gripped two pieces of lemon.

I raised a brow as Spencer threw his empty hand over Ryan's shoulder. "Yep, oh Buddy. We're gonna do a shot. Well, you're gonna do one off of Bren while I take it off of Alex." He pointed to me and Alex. "Let's lose some shirts!" We followed his instructions, Will and James helping Jon clear off the table so me and Alex could lie down next to each other. Once we were there, Spencer told Ryan to follow his lead.

I watched Ryan as he licked my nipple, covering it with salt, then placed a lemon in my mouth. Hearing Alex shudder, I saw the tequila poured into his navel as I sucked in my tummy while Jon did the same to me. People were chanting as Ryan smiled at me, balancing one hand by my neck, the other between my legs, his wrist brushing against my crotch. I pressed up into his arm as Ryan licked my nipple, sucking it, biting it, then covered my bellybutton with his mouth, slurping, followed by attacking the lemon between my lips.

I managed to spit out the lemon, and wrap my hands around Ryan's neck, kissing him, tasting the shot off his lips as his wrist pressed harder into my groin, and I thrust up against it.

I groaned against Brendon's lips trying to get closer to him when I felt arms around my waist pulling me back. I pouted and made some noise of unhappiness as I was pulled away. "Whoa, Ry. I know you're drunk, happy and probably really fucking horny, but I don't think sex with your boyfriend on the table in front of all of us is the best thing to do on your birthday in the middle of a party."

Sagging back against the body of whoever it was that pulled me away, I watched Brendon as he sat up and Alex did beside him. My head dropped to the side against the person behind me and I watched the three amazing men in my life in front of me. The three of them were beautiful and I loved them all so very much. I grinned at them and licked my lips. "I love you guys...seriously...love you guys...you're like....mmmm....everything..."

I giggled a little. "My lover and besst friend and...and..." I looked at Spencer not sure how to describe who or what he was to me. I busted out in giggles again as I looked at Spence. "My puppy!" I giggled again and managed to get a hold on Spencer and pull him over to hug him and nuzzle him a little bit even though I still had the other person's arms around my waist and holding me up. I had no clue who it was, but I didn't care, they could manage my slight weight. "Love you Spencerrrrrrrr." I murmured a little before opening my eyes and looking over at Brendon and Alex who were trying to get their shirts on.

"Okay, who hasn't shared a shot with Ryan yet? Cuz I think if you haven't we should probably do that soon before he passes out from all the alcohol we're pumping into his system." Alex grinned over at Brendon before glancing over. "Pete! Patrick, you woke up! Come join in the 'lets get Ry wasted' scheme of the night!"

Spencer blushed. "We love you too Ryan." He smiled, then panted, followed by a small bark. I threw my arm around Alex as we watched Pete and Patrick head towards Ryan. Jon was still holding him when they made it to the table. The items that were removed for the body shots were placed back on the table as were the bottles of liquor that the guests were consuming. Patrick eyed a few bottles then picked up some Malibu rum and took a cup from a very eager Amanda, who was practically drooling over him.

Pete took the same bottle, filling his cup and one for Ryan. They stood in front of Ryan while Jon held him around the waist. Counting to three, they took the drink back, stating that one drink wouldn't hurt them, then Pete pried off Jon's fingers to pull Ryan into a hug. I saw Pete whispering into Ryan's ear as Alex squeezed my side a little, taking my attention away from it.

Pete stepped back, smiling as Patrick gave Ryan a quick hug, wishing him a happy birthday. Spencer stepped in. "That's really awesome that you guys could make it. I didn't know if you could fit it in your schedule."

"Yea." Jon laughed, pointing to Pete. "When Alex told him, he was super excited, so he called us up. And shit, Vegas, you can't beat that."

I laughed and looked over at Patrick who was staring at me smiling. I smiled back as one of the guys from the internship, shit, I forget his name, asked Alex if they had Guitar Hero. Alex wiggled his brows at me, moved to give Ryan a hug and kiss, then helped what's his name with the video game.

I leaned against Pete, kinda holding onto him because I wasn't entirely sure that I could stand on my own two feet with my balance. I watched Alex walk off with a group of guys and rested my head against Pete's. "I have THE so bestest friends in like ever and everrey where! Party...mmmm....shots...people....you and Patyrick! So so so lucky!"

Pete chuckled and glanced over my shoulder. "You're bombed, Ry, aren't you? Are you done partying or should we find you more drinks?"

I giggled and pressed closer to Pete, probably about to knock him over even though I wasn't really caring at that moment. "Drinksis...like Skeksis...they're bad...bad bad bad...liked the Mysticsis...theyrer cool!" I giggled again and started playing with Pete's hair. "You need a cut of hair. Long, to long, should be shorter. I liked it red...tha was yeaaarss ago, but I likkedd it!"

Pete shook his head and rested his hands on my hips, holding me up. "Yeah, the Skeksis were bad and they did bad things and the Mystics were good and were very cool. And there were the Gelflings too who were really fun. But the Skeksis and Mystics were actually the shattered urSkeks...What am I doing having a Dark Crystal discussion with you when you're smashed? You probably just liked the movie and thought of it cuz of how you said drinks... C'mon, Ry, lets get you a glass of water and then maybe you can have another drink, deal?"

Patrick stepped forward at that moment and handed me a glass of water and giving me a look. "Patyrick! Thanks-you!" I started drinking the water, slowed only by Pete's hand stopping me from drinking it all at once.

"You know, Ry, his name is Patrick, not Patyrick."

I lowered the glass and grinned. "Thas what I said! Patyrick!"

I bit my lip as I listened to Ryan talk about, um, yea, I wasn't quite sure what he was talking about. Jon walked up next to me holding a glass. "It's rum and coke. Looks like you could use something to occupy your hands or, maybe attention or something." He looked between me and Pete, down to Pete's hand and back to me.

"No, I'm cool, but thanks." I smiled as I took a drink, seeing Amanda and Hannah walk up to Ryan with three shots. "Just a sec, or well, come with me." I smirked to Jon making my way over to Ryan, Pete, Patrick and my two friends. "Ry." I smiled as he chugged his water like a champ. "This is Amanda, you remember her from the first Get a Grip show, right?" He nodded. "And this is Hannah. I had some classes with her at school, her parents made the birthday cake for you."

Hugging Hannah from the side, she stood there staring at Pete and Patrick. "Um, Patrick, Pete. Hannah. Amanda." I laughed. "I would suggest a hand shake or something, but they might drool on you." Amanda punched me in the arm with the hand not holding a shot.

"OH!" She smiled to Ryan. "I didn't get to talk to you much, but, Bren talks about you almost nonstop, so I figured we could do a shot. I think we are one of the last ones to do it. So, um, to you, on your birthday, and like to happiness with you and Bren!" She smiled as she handed Ryan his, all three taking them back.

I handed back the glass and then stood there with everyone around me, trying to keep myself up, I put a hand on the two people beside me, one hand on Pete and the other on Brendon. "Hi! Thanks!" I grinned and giggled before wavering and gripping more tightly onto the to guys. "Hungry...should get pizza or something...can we get pizza?"

Alex came walking up to us, laughing. "Ry, we've got pizza right over there. You want a piece? There's your favorite, pineapple and cheese, no sauce. I ordered it just for you. Want some?"

I nodded emphatically and made myself dizzy, falling into Brendon and giggling as I fell into a lump on the floor where I curled up and hugged Brendon's leg. "Mmmm...rumm....rummm....rummm....where's tha rummm? Ren ren, rummm?"

"Uh oh, he's gone, Bren. You better get him up and we'll get some food into him, straighten him out a little before he has any more. I'm guessing he didn't eat a lot at dinner or the alcohol wouldn't have hit quite so hard and fast. I'll get him a few pieces of pizza, you get him sitting." He looked over at Jon, Patrick and Pete and grinned. "I promise he isn't always like this. But ya know, he's just so skinny and he's already had so much, ya know?"

I was still a giggling mess on the floor when people started picking me up and helping me over and into a chair so I was sitting. Patrick sat down on the couch beside me and I wiggled my fingers at him. He just chuckled until Pete dumped himself into his lap and wrapped his arms around Patrick's neck. "So Ry, you're like, as cute as a kitten when you're drunk, you know that?" He smirked and looked down at Patrick. "And your new name is Patyrick, I like it!" Patrick swatted at him but was stopped when Pete smashed a kiss to the corner of his mouth. "I said, I like it!"

I made my way over to Ryan, sitting on the arm of the chair. Rubbing the back of his neck, I watched him for a few seconds while Alex came in with his food. He sat and ate pizza while talking, very drunkenly with Pete, Patrick, Jon, Alex and myself. The food did seem to be doing him some good, which I didn't understand since we had eaten a pretty big dinner, I thought.

I sipped at my rum and coke that Jon made me, then leaned over to him. "You mind making one of these for Ryan, so he has something to wash the pizza down with?" I thanked Jon as he got up and said 'anything for the birthday boy' and walked into the kitchen with Spencer and Steve. Glancing around the party, there was a huge cheer over near the Guitar Hero followed by laughter and loud cursing.

Looking over at Alex, I shrugged, knowing they didn't break anything but it was just the game. Grinning down at Ryan, I rubbed his leg. "You know, over half the time I've known you, you've had that damn cast on. It's like a whole new you without it!" I kissed his temple then down his cheek to his ear. "And I can't fucking wait to be reminded how flexible you are with out it." I licked the shell of his ear as Jon came back.

"So." He handed a drink to Ryan. "Rumor has it that you are a fan of rum...." He laughed at Spencer who sang 'Rummmm rummmm rummmmm rummmmm'. "So, in honor of that, here's one!" Sitting down cross legged by us, Will came up behind him and leaned his head on Jon's shoulder.

"Jon Walker. You are the sweetest!" Will smiled as he curled up closer to him. Jon just shrugged and blushed.

I took the glass from Jon and sipped it for a moment before taking a pretty greedy drink. Alex reached over to slow me down and took the glass away from me before nudging me toward my food again. I grinned at him for a moment before finishing off my piece of pizza. Alex chuckled and took the plate away. "Well, I'm glad you finished that one, want another one? I don't want you to eat too much too fast, but maybe one more piece?"

I shrugged and leaned back in the chair, curling my legs up beneath me as I did and looking around at everyone mingling around and talking to each other. They all seemed to be having a good time, which was good. I liked it when people had a good time at my place or my party even if I wasn't throwing it or being responsible for it, I still wanted them all to have a good time.

Smiling, I reached to Alex and took my drink back, taking another sip before suddenly realizing it was my birthday and birthdays usually meant presents. I looked around for the presents but didn't see anything and pouted up at Brendon. "Do I get presents? I dun see any presents, please tell me there's pressents?!" I made puppy dog eyes at Brendon for a moment before I heard Patrick chuckling and turned to look at him.

Pete was holding out something that was wrapped and I squealed with glee and handed my cup to Brendon before taking it and ripping the paper off of the box of a brand new sidekick. "Oh my god! Pete!" I looked over at him and Patrick as I opened the box excitedly. I'd been talking about getting the newest one and that’s exactly what it was. I was so excited.

"That’s from both me and Patyrick. We thought, if you're going to be a band manager, you needed the latest technology to make sure you're up to date on everything and reachable at all times. It has a phone number already and a plan that we just started for you, but the bill will be yours after that part runs out. But I'm sure you'll make good use of it!"

I grinned as I ran my fingers over the smooth surface. "I love it, thank you!"

I peered over with big eyes at the Sidekick in his hands. Leave it to Pete to outshine Ryan's best friend and boyfriend. Who knew someone loved gifts so much? Patting Ryan on the back and rubbing the spot, I leaned down to get a better look. It sure was the newest and best, and yes, my boyfriend did deserve that.

While he gave them hugs and thanked them repeatedly, I slipped down into his seat and pulled him into my lap when he was finished. "That's pretty awesome!" I smiled at him, then kissed his neck. "You'll be on top of everything now." I looked from Spencer to Jon, who weren't holding presents, and I shrugged. "We kinda put on the email invite that gifts weren't needed, but that they should brings drinks or food since Alex didn't have much time to stock the place for it, you know."

Spencer nodded in agreement. "And I was going to get you something, but my mom wouldn't let me touch my money. She somehow found out about the extra $1000 that I had and made me give that to her too, so I didn't have much cash to spare but for the drinks and stuff, you know for those who aren't drinking. But, I'm sure other people have stuff."

Holding up his bottle, Jon smiled. "I forgot, cause, I thought it was a house warming party, so I brought a cactus at the liquor store, it's over there, so, um Happy Birthday!" Laughing at him, I ran my hand along Ryan's spine, then rested around his waist, giving him a kiss on the back of the neck.

"Ss'okay. Got alcohol an a sidekick. N Lex-lex is home!" I nuzzled back against Brendon and curled up a little against him and looked at the sidekick for a few moments before I realized I didn't know what I was doing with it or how to get it up and running or anything. Pete reached out for it and I gave it to him, letting him fiddle with it to get it up and running.

"Mmm...now M gonna need to give ery one my new number. Wonder if I can just have them all forwarded till I get the word out." I rested my head into the curve of Brendon's neck and reached down to play with his fingers, running my fingertips between them as I heard a roar from over at Guitar Hero and I chuckled softly. "I think that was the best thing to ever have...but I din't know we had it." I looked at Alex in confusion and he smirked.

"I brought it home. It was kinda lent to us for the weekend but it's going back to LA with a couple of the guys. I just thought it'd be good to have, ya know?"

I nodded at Alex and then took my glass back, finishing off what was left of my drink before putting the glass aside as Pete handed me the sidekick. "You're all set up and ready to go. You just need to put in your address book information into it. Or, you might be able to take it in and have them transfer all your information into it and then you can go from there. I hope you like it Ry, just be careful of what you take pictures of with it in case it ever gets hacked. Wouldn't want naked pics of you and Bren out on the net when he gets famous, huh?"

Patrick swatted at Pete and laughed. "Just because you're stupid enough to do shit like that doesn't mean Ry is, or Brendon for that matter. Give him some credit Pete!"

I chuckled and tilted my head so I could look at Brendon. "Hear that? No nakie pics on my new sidekick!"

I grinned. "Nope, that's what the Polaroid is for." Joking with him, I laced our fingers together as Jon took his glass to go refill it. It was funny, normally Spencer was the one to get up and do things when we were being lazy, but he did deserve a break, he did a lot for this party. Hell, more than I did. Jon came back, giving Ryan his drink with a smile, then curled back into Will, who seemed to be sleeping with his eyes open.

Nudging Ryan, I pointed to Will as Gabe came up proclaiming that he was the Guitar Hero champion of the world, kicking Will in the back to scoot over so they could both support Jon's weight. In the mean time, Hannah and Amanda were snapping all sorts of pictures while the internship crew had cleared off the table again for what looked like a game of poker.

Bringing Ryan closer, I spoke in his ear. "Our friends all get along very well, you know?" I smiled, rubbing my nose in his hair, taking in his shampoo. "This is a great party! All in honor of you Babe, everyone is here for you." Sighing, I watched him fiddle with his Sidekick, then took it out of his hands, holding it in front of us as I pressed my lips to his cheek and took a picture. My cousin had one, so I was familiar enough to use it. "Huh, you don't look nearly as drunk in the picture." I laughed as we looked at the picture.

I giggled and leaned more in against Brendon before looking over at Spence, he seemed to just kinda be there. Alex had gone off to take care of something or talk to someone, I wasn't quite sure where he went or what he was doing. But I didn't like the fact that Spencer looked like the kid left out at recess. I scootched over to the side a little and beckoned to him. Luckily the chair I'd sat in was one of those that was bigger than a one person chair but smaller than a love seat, so there was enough room for the three of us.

"C'mon, Spence, come snuggle with me and Bren!" I giggled and sipped my filled drink, looking down at it for a moment in confusion because I remembered finishing it. I shrugged and grinned to myself deciding it was magic and I was lucky and that I should just enjoy my magic luck. I moved a little more and damn near pulled Spence down beside me, resting my head on him once he'd gotten himself situated. "Now I have a pillow and a blanket in the form of two of my best boys!"

Giggling again, I looked around at everyone again and sighed in content. Bren was right, they were all getting along and quite well. It wasn't too rowdy, even with the alcohol that everyone was drinking, and it definitely had gotten more laid back as we all had a bit more (me more than anyone else). "We should start a group game of twister or something...I dunno...I feel like we should be doing something..." I licked my lips and looked back at Brendon and grinned.

Shaking my head at Ryan, I reached around and tickled Spencer causing him to squirm and bat at me. I always knew where to get him, right in the ribs, under his armpit. "FUCK BRENDON!" He yelled as I laughed and moved my hand back to Ryan. I caught Jon's eyes who laughed too.

"TWISTER!?!?" He clapped. "What? Where?"

Blinking at the loudness caused by the only people in the room actually sitting and relaxing, I kissed Ryan's ear. "As far as I know, you don't have Twister Ryan. Sorry Babe, we didn't put that on the list of must have for your party, but um, maybe we could improvise..." I stared at Spencer who was biting his lip in thought, tapping his leg. "Um, yea. Haha." Leaning in to whisper to Ryan, I tried to shield my mouth from everyone else. "We do have that naughty Truth or Dare game, but um, I don't know if this would be a good place, cause like, not everyone is as, well, in love with the cock like we are."

Spencer interrupted us. "We could always play Charades or something, you know, so everyone can get involved, but like, we would need things to act out or something, don't you have to have a list?"

"Or you could have a category, say, music, and people can pick their own, I dunno. But, yea, that is something. They have a good sound system, so dancing...I dunno. Shit, we are bad party planners." I laughed then looked over to the people sitting around us. "You guys have any suggestions?"

"RYAN!!!!!!!"

I looked up to see Alex and a group of guys making their way to us. I blinked as I looked at the guys, trying to figure out who they were and why they were at my party. After a few moments it clicked and I grinned as Alex knelt in front of the chair where I was most certainly tangled up with two guys that didn't include my best friend but did include my boyfriend and his best friend.

"Lansdowne agreed to put on a little acoustic set for us in honor of your birthday, and of course our housewarming. So...you guys can just sit there and be all comfy and they're gonna set up and play for you for a little while. Then we're gonna have cake and then god knows what. Though from the looks of you three you'll be sleeping."

He chuckled and got up, leaning over and pressing a kiss to my temple before winking and then moving slightly to the side and kissing Spencer. "I'll let Ry kiss you, Bren, wouldn't wanna ruffle too many feathers around here." He smirked as he walked away to help the guys set up.

I grinned and looked over at Bren, pulling his lips to mine so I could kiss him like Alex said. I was never one to ignore what my best friend said, especially when it came to making out with my boyfriend in public or private. "Mmm...seems like Alex has it all figured out, huh? Music for us to relax to and enjoy and then cake and then god knows what. How about you all have some sort of competition so I can sit here and judge? Like...best lap dance given to the birthday boy?" I wiggled my eyebrows and kissed him again.

I moaned a little from the loss of his lips as he suggested the lap dance. Hmm. Titling my head to the side, I clicked my tongue in thought about the whole idea of other guys grinding against my boyfriend. But then, it made me think about how excited and horny he might get from it, and the fact that I would be staying in his bed tonight, all alone. "Ok." I smiled to him. "But, to be fair, you know. I'll wait and give you a private lap dance later tonight..."

Addressing the guys, I winked. "So, my boyfriend thinks that if you didn't bring him a gift, that you need to give him one in the form of a lap dance." Wiggling my brows at them, Spencer laughed and shoved himself up, going to go get a chair. "And you know, the birthday boy gets whatever he wants...so...who's first?" I asked as Jon jumped up.

They placed Ryan in a chair from the kitchen as people came up and did their best to dance and grind against him. Alex had pulled out some 50 Cent for the action, and it was hilarious. Not many of them had rhythm, and most of the guys were laughing so hard at the fact that they were doing this to a guy that Ryan too was curled over giggling. From my view it was hard to tell who did the best job, they were all pretty crazy.

The lead singer from Lansdowne announced that they were ready to go as one of the interns finished up shaking his ass at Ryan. "GO! GO! GO!" The party goers shouted to Ryan as someone suggested using a mic to announce who gave the best one to everyone. It had to be a hard decision, since, it was more for fun then actual dancing.

I giggled as I sat there and looked at all the guys who had just given me lap dances. The question was, what was I going to judge on? Of course, in the end the answer was which of them stuck in my mind the most and that was an easy one to pick. Laughing to myself, I stumbled up out of my chair and paused to gain my balance. I still had a lot of alcohol in me and it was toying with my head and doing its best. Brendon came to my side and helped me to the mic which was actually a simple set up since they were doing it acoustic.

Before he let me announce the winner, Alex stepped up and announced that the prize was going to be taking a body shot off of me, which I thought was pretty fair considering they had to damn near grind on me to win it, so why not have a prize that had to do with me? At least it wasn't something like a hand job or something, but then again Alex knew better since I was with Brendon, but if it weren't for Brendon it wouldn't have surprised me if that would have been the prize. It still might have been comical though considering how drunk I was. Anyway, I looked at all those around us and grinned. "Wannt easy choosing. Erry one did...good." I giggled and leaned on Bren. "Buuuttt!" My eyes scanned around to see where he was. "Spence has hips like a fucking god and knows how ta use 'em, so I think he wins."

Alex laughed and we saw Spence turn bright red as I winked at him before we got off the 'stage' and gave the room to Lansdowne. The guys were funny as they started tuning and talking to all of us with friendly banter. When they were ready they launched into their songs, which sadly I never had learned well enough to sing along to, but that didn't really matter because it was just fun. They played for a while and I ended up back in my chair with my glass (which was magically full again) and Brendon and we enjoyed the music. Some people danced though that was a laugh, and the rest of us just chilled around the edges, watching, listening, talking and there was a little making out.

When Lansdowne finished their acoustic set Pete and Patrick stepped up and talked to them for a moment before looking back at me. "Okay, so since they went acoustic, and since we're here and a handful of our friends are here, we figure we should give you our own little fun set, so, Gabe, Will, c'mon up and between the four of us we'll give you some background music for that body shot Spencer is about to take."

Spencer's eyes shot up to Pete when he spoke. "Well, what if I wanted to listen to the set instead?" He asked. It was funny, Spencer didn't act shy at all when he was around just Ry, Alex and I, but when there was a group, he turned into a virgin or something. And that wasn't fair. I was the one who had the innocent virgin vibe here!

I walked up to him tugging on his arm until we reached the coffee table, which was conveniently located for everyone's viewing. Alex had already grabbed Ryan and was helping him remove his shirt while Steve got the alcohol. He came back with the bottle of tequila and waited for Ryan to get ready. I moved to hold Ryan's hand as he was laid out similar to me and Alex early. Spencer definitely looked a lot more tense as he knelt down next to Ryan's body than he did with Alex.

Glancing up at me, I nodded him forward as Pete and Will chanted into the mics, cheerleader style. 'YOU CAN DO IT, YES YOU CAN, IF SPENCE CAN'T DO IT, NO ONE CAN!' Then they broke into Grand Theft Autumn and sang while Steve poured the shot on Ryan, Alex did the salt on Ry's collarbone and I placed a lemon in his mouth. Gulping, Spencer bent down, licked the salt, moved to suck up the liquid and swallowed painfully as he took the lemon from Ryan's mouth, pulling back instantly to use the fruit to take away the nasty taste of the liquor.

I laughed as the other's shouted and Spencer continued to suck on the slice like a pacifier or something. He helped Ryan to a sitting position while James handed Ryan a towel to wipe up with. Once his shirt was back on, Alex was helping Spencer get the taste out of his mouth while I wrapped my arms around Ryan, dragging him to the set dancing 'front row'.

I danced with Brendon while the guys went on. It was kinda funny actually. They had borrowed the acoustic guitars from Lansdowne and were switching from Fall Out Boy to The Academy Is... to Cobra Starship and it was really interesting to hear each of the songs done without the entire of any of the three bands. It was a once in a lifetime thing I was sure and I was beyond flattered and honored that they were doing it at my birthday party of all things. I certainly had made some big friendships from the internship.

When they had finished doing their own little set and it was fast approaching midnight, Alex called out that it was time for cake before I turned a day older. He and Spence disappeared into the kitchen to get the cake and someone dimmed the lights as Brendon brought me over to the table and plopped me down in the chair. Again my glass was in my hand and magically full and I took another drink before putting it aside when everyone started singing happy birthday to me. It was a beautiful sound with Patrick's voice blending with William's and everyone else's mingling and blending. We had a pretty harmonic group if you asked me in my drunken opinion.

The cake was placed down in front of me and my eyebrows shot up because it was covered in one of those frosting pictures that you could eat. The picture was of Bren, Alex, Spence and I at the Fall Out Boy show from LA. That night had been amazing and seeing it on the cake made me grin up at all three of them. I was happier than I'd ever been, truly happy as I looked at all the people who were celebrating my birthday with me. It was a first, normally I celebrated with family and that was all, but this year I'd done the family thing and there I was surrounded by friends, lots of friends.

When they all finished singing, I squeezed my eyes closed and made my wish before blowing out the candles to a round of cheers. Looking up at Brendon, I grinned before pulling him down and kissing him passionately in front of everyone.

Running my hands around Ryan, I tickled the hairs on the back of his neck, tasting the rum and coke. I pulled back breathless and leaned my head against his, grinning from ear to ear. "I fucking love you Ryan Ross!" Kissing him quickly, I sighed as Alex placed a piece of cake in front of us. Gesturing not to give me a slice, I took the fork and feed some to Ryan, then did the same for myself.

It was pretty good cake. Spencer and Alex served the rest of the people who wanted some and soon half the cake was gone as was half the energy in the room. It wasn't really even that late, but I knew some people worked today and have to work tomorrow. Other's traveled from LA and various places. I yawned after seeing James do the same, then got up to collect the now empty plates, leaving Ryan to talk with the guests.

"It's getting late." I stated to Spencer who was out in the kitchen getting some trash bags.

"Yea. And I'm tired after putting this thing together. It turned out good, don't you think?"

"Excellent!" I held out my arms, in which he walked into them, pulling me into a hug. "You did a great job, Spence, it's awesome, you and Alex. Fuck, Ryan is having such a great time!"

"I know, I mean, he's been through a shitty summer, it's the least he deserves you know?"

Patting him on the back, I agreed. "Yea, I know." And smiled, following him out to pick up the place a little. "I hope he's not to tired though." I stared over at Ryan, sitting at the table, sipping his drink while laughing at a joke someone told. "I'm hoping a second wind comes along, cause, we haven't really been alone since that cast came off..."

Spencer laughed. "Yea, and, well, Alex is back in town, and I washed his sheets for him..." We both laughed, gathering trash and joking with each other.

Alex came up and slid into the chair behind me, wrapping his arms around my waist and resting his head on my shoulder. "So, everyone, the birthday boy has had his cake, he's had his lap dances, he's been serenaded by both Lansdowne and the contributions of Pete, Patrick, Gabe and Will and he's gotten his new sidekick for his gift...Does anyone have anything else to give him? Did everyone get the chance to share a shot with him? Cuz if everyone's all done with that, I think we could convince the guys to put on some dance music and get dancing or we could all disperse and go get some sleep because some of you look like you're going to pass out."

I leaned back against Alex and closed my eyes before opening them to look around for Brendon. I saw him cleaning up and talking to Spencer and didn't want to interrupt so I let my eyes slip closed again. I was definitely one of the ones who could probably pass out, but I was okay with that because it had been a long and fun day and I still had quite a bit of alcohol running through me. I opened my eyes after a minute and looked for my magic glass, pouting a little when I didn't see it anywhere on the table

"My glass is gone, Lex...I wanted a little more rummm." I smiled at him as he chuckled and he around for a few minutes.

"Anyone seen Ry's glass? He'd like another rum and coke and whatever the birthday boy wants the birthday boy gets tonight, right?" He smirked as Jon came over with it, it being the same one or a new one would be a mystery to me, but that didn't matter because it was full and it was my drink and I eagerly drank a sip before sighing in content.

"Mmm...thanks Jon."

I walked up to Jon. "So, did you spike that with some Red Bull, cause he needs to be up for a while.." I wiggled my eyebrows at him and Spencer just shook his head. We finished picking the rest of the mess up to the best of our ability then I walked over, taking Ryan's hand as people shared some words about getting older. When the conversation dwindled, I cleared my throat.

"Yea so." I yawned, stretching my arms. "This party has been great, wonderful really." Giving my best smile, I continued. "And, like no drinking and driving, there are a bunch of air mattresses, sleeping bags and blankets and such over there. And yea..." I bent over picking Ryan up bridal style. "It's time for me to give Ryan his, um Birthday..." I bit my lip. "Lovin'?" Making eye contact with Ryan, I grinned. "My parents bought Ry some breakfast for the morning, so help yourselves, and uh, if you hear some weird noises coming from that room." I titled my head to the right. "Just ignore those, ok?"

I winked at a couple of people, then whispered loud enough for people to hear. "Your door locks, right?" Laughing I waved to the party people then headed to Ryan's room. Once we were inside, I locked the door and pointed Ryan to a black reclining chair that had a red bow on it. Still carrying him, I made our way over and sat him down on it. "I owe you a lap dance right?" Starting to remove my shirt seductively, I kicked the chair. "So I saw this in a porn once when I was like 15 and I wanted to try it out. The two guys seemed to be enjoying it..."

With my shirt now across the room, I ran my hands down my body, licking my finger and circling it around my nipple to harden it. Sucking in my stomach at the sensation, my eyes stayed on Ryan while my pants slid lower on my hips. Without removing my belt, I unbuttoned and unzipped my jeans, wiggling with the weight of the leather and metal to fall to the floor. Keeping my boxer briefs on, I swayed my hips, close enough for Ryan to reach out and touch, then dipped down, straddling the chair and him, still moving my lower half from side to side.
