“Sounds good,” Jace lead her out of the school gate while she tapped on the phone. “So, how was your day?”

Amber hummed and glanced up from her phone, which she'd pulled directions up on. "It was good. I worked on my assignments, finished a paper that's due tomorrow, and then came to watch you practice. What about you? How was your day?"

Jace scrunched his nose. “Well, that sounds tiring,” he said. “We took major notes today and there was a test, too. I seriously hope I did well. If I don’t, I would find my mom in dorm ready with a slipper in her hand.”

Amber chuckled and reached up to give his cheek a quick kiss. “Well, my parents are thrilled that I’m here at all. They didn’t think I would get to go to college, honestly. We’re a little… tight on money…”

Jace frowned at her, bending down to give her a small kiss. “I’m sorry about that,” he pulled her closer, trying to think of something nice to say. “I’m glad you were able to come.”

“Oh, it’s fine, really. We just don’t have as much as others would. I got a scholarship, which is how I’m here,” Amber explained with a shrug.

Jace fell silent, not trusting himself to speak. He didn’t want to say the wrong thing.

“Oh, I nearly forgot,” Jace blinked, trying to steer the conversation away. “Caroline’s birthday is in a few days, and the basketball team is throwing her a party. You should come, too.”

Amber’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. “I hardly know her, though… Are you sure it would be okay?”

“Of course it would be,” Jace kissed the middle of her brows. “It’ll be fun. She is completely oblivious to it.”

“If you’re sure,” Amber gave in, smiling at the kiss. “Okay, now let’s go eat. I’m starving.”

[TIME SKIP: A FEW DAYS LATER]

Drew had a key for Caroline’s apartment, so the guys decided to sneak there when William had Caroline distracted. The hot-tempered basketball player decided to take her out. Even though their manager was sharp, she didn’t catch on to the plan that was brewing secretly.

Jace cracked his knuckles, throwing an arm around his girlfriend.

“All right, let’s get planning!”

The cake had already been ordered, as well as other food, so the only thing everyone needed to do was decorate.

“Did anyone actually get any decorations?” Amber wondered as she looked around at the group of guys. “Or did you all just come in here with half a plan?”

Parker snorted.

“Who do you think we are?” He grinned. “Of course we got decorations. We can’t trust the dimwits, like our idiotic children—“ he pointed to Jace and Jude, who scowled. “—so the rest of us, minus Casper and Jordan because they got the cake and the food, got the decorations.”

“We’ve got the confetti, the balloons, the birthday banner,” Holden began counting the stuff on his fingers. “Oh, we also got the glitter. Caroline hates glitter in her hair, but we’re just going to do that.”

"Okay, that's good… Well, except for the glitter part. Do you really want your manager annoyed about glitter being in her hair?" Amber joked with a chuckle. "We should hand the banner first, probably. Are the balloons already inflated? Because someone could do that while the rest of us are decorating."

“Eh, she’ll forget about it once she receives our love~” Drew laughed at what he said before he shook his head. “Casper got a balloon inflator, so two can blow into it while one of us uses the inflator. Anyway, do you and Jace want to do the banner?”

Amber nodded, glancing over at her boyfriend with a smile. "We can do that. Right, Jace?"

Jace grinned, though he immediately went back to pouting at Parker’s earlier comment.

“Of course we can,” he crossed his arms. “C’mon, let’s get started.”

"You big baby," Amber laughed, seeing his pouting. She walked over and pressed a gentle kiss to his lips, pulling away to pat his cheek. "C'mon, I'll look for a good place to hang it while you open it up."

Jace shot a look at the other guys before he pecked her on the lips. He wanted to annoy them, and he wanted to kiss her.

“All right,” he nodded, walking over to get the banner. “No fooling around!”

Parker snorted. “Look who’s talking. Before we know it, Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum would be running around causing trouble.”

This earned an offended ‘Hey!’ from Jace and Jude.

Amber chuckled, shaking her head before she glanced around. "Hey, what if we hang it in the doorframe? Would it fit? Or maybe above the door to the kitchen?" she wondered, calling over to Jace.

“It’s a little too big for the doorframe, so above the kitchen would be better,” Jace replied, opening the packet, taking out the banner. “How far are you guys on the balloons, guys?”

“We just started, Jace,” Jude replied with a roll of his eyes, trying to tie the knot but failing. “How do you tie this thing?”

"Do you really not know how to tie a balloon?" Amber asked teasingly. "Jace, why don't you hang the banner up, and I'll help the others tie their balloons."

Jace sighed heavily before nodding. Jude, on the other hand, puffed up his cheeks.

“Of course I know how to tie a balloon!” He exclaimed. “My uh my fingers just hurt. Look at how red they are!”

Amber raised an eyebrow at the man, rolling her eyes a little. "Ah, yes, I see… You must have been tying these balloons really hard if they're that pink," she said sarcastically as she took the balloon from him.

“The poor baby,” Parker crooned. “Do you want us to feed you milk, too?”

Jude glared. “Mom! They’re being mean to me!”

Holden looked up from the balloon he was tying, face a little pink from blowing too much. He rolled his eyes.

“Okay,” he said simply. “Get back to work.”

The boys snickered at Jude, who snatched another balloon and began blowing.
