Jerry felt the fake smile Honor gave him, and he replied right back with a smile as well. He knew she had a problem with him and he wasn't going to kiss ass and knew she wouldn't either. He wasn't too keen on holding grudges but if someone wasn't going to welcome him with warm arms, neither would he. He looks over at Erica and gave her a wave back, his attention was taken by Billy and didn't recognize that he didn't greet her back "Hi, super sorry about that" Jerry smiled at Erica. He knew he had said some harsh things about her in the past but was taken aback by how pretty she actually was in person, he wanted to apologize but knew it wouldn't be the best time right now, yet still spoke to her to break the ice "Would you like to take a shot with us, Erica?" he says sweetly


Jerry sees his Stat Nerd mate enters the club and instantly gets excited. Finally some people he actually knew. Dennis entered the club and then he saw Chris. He yelled out Chris's name hoping he would see them and they would walk over so they could get right to it with the toast to Billy.

Jerry laughs looking at Kai "I am great, you? Those are some super cool tattoos you got there man" he laughs continuing to reply to the bum joke "I think Billy will probably be bumming it, but then again we take turns" Jerry grins some more nudging Billy "It's really up to him since it's his birthday, heh" He was surprised by how nice Kai was but thought it was cool to look past all the dumb twitter fights and get along with one another.

erica gives a quick nod to the nichole question. she had long accepted people didnt like nichole. it was easy to dislike her,but erica knew and adored the real nichole. "yup! still going strong" she says,holding up crossed fingers. " you still with that honor chick?" she asks with a lighthearted giggle. she really had forgotten how much she liked kai and honor together. "life is...well,hectic. mothering takes up so much time! it didnt look this busy in the manual. those dogs been keeping you on your toes?"

erica gives a genuine smile to jerry. life was too short to be bitchy to people needlessly. he seemed to be willing to let the past be the past,so why shouldnt she? she gives a single hop as she approaches him and extends her arm. "mr billy's boyfriend,i presume?" she cheerfully says.

Dustyn looks stunned when Eilidh mentions that she can't drink or have anything to eat. Those are like two of Dustyn's favourite things to do in life and doesn't believe in anyone begrudging themselves any of it. "The cakes is lovely. All the food is 'cause Billy made it. I is sure your training man wouldn't say no to one teeny weeny tiny little cupcake." Dustyn turns to order a vodka and coke, ID at the ready. "I can gets you a cocktail if you want. Something colourful and sparkly!?"

Scott rolls his eyes, hearing how it's all his fault for their late arrival for about the 100th time. "Yes and I'm sorry about that. I know you might not think it but I do actually have some flaws and tardiness is one of them. We can't all be perfect, you know!" he laughs and makes his way over to the main crowd with Jen, handing Billy a gift bag.

Billy notices a lot of the falseness going on surrounding Jerry and his friends. While he appreciates the fact that everyone is trying, he can't not notice the awkwardness in the air. He sighs and puts his beer down on the bar before heading off to the toilets. "Excuse me..."

Christopher walks over to Dennis after hearing his voice boom across the club. "Hey, man! Good to see you here."

Dustyn laughs, relating to Eilidh's story about the personal trainer. He had one for a few weeks but it didn't work out. Dustyn is naturally very slim and can eat without putting on an ounce. All the moving around also counted towards his exercise too. There really was no need for an over muscular man to shout at him, demanding him to do all kinds of crazy workouts and diets when he can do what he likes and still remain more or less the same weight. "I promise not to tell anyone. You can has two cupcakes and I still won't tell." Dustyn smiles and goes through his memory bank of cocktails. Dustyn loves a drink so he's no stranger to all the concoctions. "Green? Eh...what about a minty pear mojito? Green apple & ginger martini?"

Jerry smiles at Erica before shaking her hand and smiling. "Yes I am, I know we didn't get off on the right foot on Twitter and all that stuff but that's so old already, nice to re-meet you Erica." Jerry genuinely smiles and enjoyed the fact that Erica was open to speak despite their past.

Jerry laughs looking at Kai, "Sorry dude! You brought it up haha" he smiled then chuckled knowing how awkward it may be hearing something like that come from someone's mouth.

Jerry also spots Jennifer. He waves back at her. He felt the tension coming from everywhere since he didn't get along with a lot of Billy's friends but he decides to suck it up and still have fun and no one seemed to be starting problems so hat was good. After waving at Jennifer , he turns to Chris and Dennis who finally arrived. He shakes their hands with a smile on his face "Thank god you late fucks came! Jerry laughs looking at Chris, good to see you too, wanna start drinking?"

Dennis stood there he sees Jennifer, Erica, And a few others in his area and he smiles at them giving them a wave. Dennis is always shy when he first gets to events and needs time to loosen up he looks at Jerry "Yeah, I'm down"

"You better be. You know how much the dogs miss you when you were in hospital," he smiles. Kai would say that he missed her too, but when Honor had been in hospital, the truth was that Kai had barely left her side. He sat there day after day, barely eating or sleeping, just watching over her and holding her hand, scared to let her go. When he looks across and sees Billy walk off, Kai laughs a little and nods. "No worries, love," he smiles, kissing her back. "And hurry back," he jokes, playfully patting her on the butt as she walks away. Kai makes his way back to the bar to get his drink and stands watching goings on.

Eilidh nods at Dustyn when he says she could have a cake. She looks around as she lifts one, pretty sure that someone in here was her boss, although she didn't know who. She didn't want them to see her eating cake though, whoever they were. It wasn't that she was ever fat, or even slightly overweight, but she had had it drummed into her that if a girl wanted to be a singer she had to have the perfect toned body and she had been assigned a personal trainer for that exact purpose, even though she hated him and all the fitness Work he made her do. When Dustyn offers the drink, she nods happily. She had no clue what she was about to drink, but it didn't cross he her mind that it might be booze, which she had never had before. "I love mints, Dustyn," she says with a smile.

Dustyn orders Eilidh's drink, totally unaware that she doesn't realise that it's alcoholic. He forgets that other people are not really big drinkers, if one at all so he tends to just buy them and force them upon people without thinking. Dustyn was one of the school kids who'd congregate in the bathrooms to fill up their drinks with a little half bottle of vodka at the tacky school discos. Eilidh is far more innocent. When the sparkly green drink arrives, he slides it over to her. "Well this is very minty. It's not that strong either." Dustyn is referring to the alcohol content rather than the taste of the mint which Eilidh may misinterpret. He turns around when he hears a familiar voice. "Jennifer!!" He hops off the barstool and wraps his arms around her. "I is great. You?"

Riley makes his way up to the bar to order himself a pint. He finds himself next to Kai, a familiar face but not someone he's interacted with much. "Alright, mate?" he asks in a friendly manner but with his strong accent and gruff voice he always sounds like he wants to start a fight.

Billy sighs and splashes a little more water on his face. He knows there really is no point in hiding anything from Honor. "I'm not annoyed or anything....it's just....I'm on edge and I shouldn't be because it's my birthday party. When I'm on edge, I panic. When I panic, I tend to do and say things without thinking. I just came in here to collect my thoughts." He turns the tap off and uses some paper towels. "I know people are trying their best with Jerry and he's doing the same in return but I can still sense it. I've seen better acting in badly dubbed porn." He laughs and takes hold of his suit jacket, folding it over his arms. "All of the people I care about are here, give or take a few who couldn't make it. I don't want anything to go wrong."

Eilidh smiles at Dustyn when he offers her a drunk, taking it from him and thanking him. If Oscar was around at the moment, he would normally step in and tell her not to drink it. Oscar always knew what was beat for her, and she trusted him with anything he said. But he wasn't here right now, so she happily took the drink and took a long swig from it, screwing up her face a little at her first taste of alcohol. "It tastes yummy," she smiles. "Do you want to try some?" she asks as she stares into the drink, mesmerised by the way it sparkled and the color of it, which she found amazing. When she hears another voice, she looks up and smiles at Jennifer. "Hi!" she says loudly, hugging Jennifer tightly. There wasn't a lot of people Eilidh trusted, but Jennifer was definitely one of them.

Kai is looking at his phone when he hears a voice, and when he looks up, he sees Riley. "Ah, so it's the bastard of Beeston innit?" he jokes, holding out his hand. "How's it going, love?" he asks.

When Erica asks Kai if he's holding, he looks a little nervous. "Ummm..I'm not actually," he laughs a little, feeling embarrassed in the complete opposite way to how people normally would. "I've got cigs like but nowt stronger," he laughs.

"wow" erica laughs,doubling over." i never thought i'd see the day. having a steady girlfriend has changed you. you used to be cool...and cigarettes will fucking kill you!" she teases. she didnt know anyone else well enough to ask. and if one asks the wrong person,it makes you look like a fiend. "booze it is" she shrugs and downs the oily concoction of unwatered absinthe.

"I trust that you won't do anything but I'm not so sure about others. Not sure about Jerry myself too. I know him. There's only so long before he can no longer bite his tongue. I just hope that every plays nice tonight. My main worry is Scott though. Scott's stubborn as fuck. He won't even pretend to like Jerry if he comes near him. There's no changing Scott Wellington's opinion." Billy laughs when Honor suggests that he should be high as fuck right now. It did cross his mind earlier but he has nothing on him at the moment. "I could do with a nice, big, fat joint right about now to be honest."

Dustyn giggles as Eilidh watches the drink. Being with Eilidh means that he doesn't need to put on this grown-up act and he can just be as random as he likes. With Dallas and the Weekend boys, he has to think carefully before he says something. He is tired of seeing people roll his eyes and snigger whenever he asks a question. He always has to think "will they appreciate it?" before he opens his mouth but not with Eilidh. She's as playful and excitable as he is. He doesn't need to pretend to be interested in politics and sports with her. At a bar, people would be telling Dustyn to slow down and they'd be keeping an eye on him but Eilidh just lets him act like...well, Dustyn. "No it's OK. I has tried it before. It's really nice. Got my own drink though!" He smiles and takes a sip of his vodka and coke. "I like your dress. It's very pretty."

Scott walks over to Jennifer and hands her the coke he ordered for her. "You going to get up and have a dance with me later?" he smiles.

Riley chuckles when he starts to converse with Kai. "Bastard of Beeston? That's a new one. The Sun were calling me Lothario of Leeds yesterday. Don't know which one I like best to be honest." He offers his hand out in return to greet Kai. "I'm not too bad, mate. Yourself?" Riley thanks the bartender when his pint arrives. "You wanting another one?"
