Convincing her (Jen and Lucas)

Chapter 121: Many Handsome Men

"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.

"Jason!" James called out making everyone turn to look at him. When he noticed everyone was looking he smiled lazily in greeting and nodded in their direction before his gaze focused on Jason.

"Lock the car" James said and walked in their direction. As expected, Liam and Levi surrounded him with smiles while calling him boss making Jason roll his eyes.

"Who is that?" Laura asked Jen and the others who didn't know also paid attention.

"He is the owner of DS entertainment" Jen said before the girls started nodding in understanding since the other guys called him boss.

"Tsk tsk, how can he look so beautiful?" Laura asked as she shamelessly looked at James. What she did not expect was for their eyes to meet and James lazily looked at her she felt like she would swallow her tongue.

What she was experiencing was very different from when she saw her idols. James' pouty lips spread into slow smile showing his straight white teeth and the tiny dimples at the corners of his mouth.

Jen saw how Laura face became flushed and knew it was time that she turn her friend away from the distraction before she embarrassed herself.

"Jen, aren't there too many handsome men here?" Laura asked when they resumed their walk towards the mansion.

"That's why I brought you, good things are meant to be shared" Jen said as if she had just done her friends a huge favor making them all laugh in unison.

As they went up the front steps of the mansion, the large doors burst open suddenly, startling the girls who were walking ahead of the guys.

"Lu-" a cheerful voice had started calling out but was cut short when he met the eyes of the five girls in front of him.

"Ethan or Brian?" Jen asked as she curiously looked at the tall dirty blonde guy in front of them.

"Um, Ethan?" he replied.

"Are you asking me?" Jen asked as her brown eyes met his brown eyes.

For the first time in a while Ethan felt intimidated, especially since he was the centre of attention and standing in front of five women.

"I'm Ethan" he corrected himself and smiled sheepishly.

"Isn't he adorable" Laura said and walked towards him and shook his hand.

"I'm Laura" she introduced herself. Ethan shook her hand without much thought and looked over the girls' heads at the guys who were pretty close.

"Nice to meet you" Ethan said feeling less uneasy.

Laura then took initiative to introduce her friends finishing with Jen but did not elaborate on her relationship with Lucas.

By the time she was done, the guys were already standing in front of the house and Ethan hugged Lucas in excitement and relief.

"Happy birthday" Ethan said before he was pushed away by Lucas since he held him for too long.

"Thanks, where is Brian?" Lucas asked since he knew that Brian had arrived the day before.

"He is in the stables" Ethan said and went forward to greet the other guys.

"Oh, okay ladies, let's go inside" Lucas said with a smile before putting an arm around Jen's shoulders and leading the crowd into the house.
