Hold On 'Til May - Fuenciado

Chapter Eighteen

[Mike]

"Tony, I like you. Well, of course I like you, what I mean is... I'm attracted to you. I don't know when it started, I don't know why... okay yes I do, but like... I just..." Those were the words that came out from my mouth when I told Tony I liked him. His reaction to that was to press his lips to mine, shut me up in the nicest way possible. Who knew that all four members of Pierce the Veil would turn out to be gay for one-another? But it was a great thing. The way we came out to Jaime... Vic probably had to explain quite a bit during their lunch date! Vic had gotten Tony and I in on his plans to ask Jaime out, and we were all for it. I doubted Jaime would say no, but there was always that possibility...

"Hey baby, want to watch a movie?" Tony walked over to where I was sitting and slid himself down the arm of the couch, his legs hanging over the side and his head in my lap, his eyes staring up into mine. I smiled at him.

"Sure, your choice just no-"

"Screw you," he replied, knowing what I was going to say. I laughed.

"You wish!"

"Oh, but I could if I wanted to," Tony winked and sat up, leaning in to kiss me. Jaime and Vic burst through the door, and Tony sighed.

"HEY GUYS, come with us to the ferris wheel thingger?!" Jaime asked.

"It's called the Skywheel Jaime," Vic added, then looked to us. "But we were wondering if you two wanted to join us, just before we head off?"

I looked to Tony, then looked back to Vic and Jaime. "Sure!" I pushed Tony away from me with a laugh. "Come on!" I grabbed his hand and we walked over and slipped on our shoes as Jaime and Vic walked out the door, hand-in-hand like us. Tony laughed. "What?"

"We're gonna disturb people with the amount of gayness right here!" I laughed.

"Dude, they're Canadians, they're either all gay or love gays!" Vic joked, a wide smile on his face. He turned to Jaime and added, "and even if we did, it's worth it," then leaned and pecked Jaime's cheek. I leaned into Mike's ear.

"Aren't they so cute together?" He laughed and nodded. We continued walking, each couple sharing words between each other occasionally, then came to the 'ferris wheel', as Jaime called it. We went up to the booth, and Vic asked for four tickets. Jaime, Mike and I all dug in our pockets for money, but Vic turned around and stopped us.

"Don't worry about it guys, my treat." Vic paid, and we walked up to the loading platform.

"Oh god Vic... it's so high..." Jaime had a look of worry over his face, I knew he had a bit of a fear of heights. "What if it breaks... what if we -" Vic cut him off by pressing his lips to Jaime's.

"Shh shh shh Jaime..." Vic stroked Jaime's cheek. "It's alright baby... don't worry, it's perfectly safe..." The worker instructed us to get on the ride, and Vic had to convince Jaime to come. Once we were all on, the door shut and Mike and I sat on one side, and Vic and Jaime on the other, Jaime clinging on Vic for dear life.

[Vic]

"Come on Jaime, sit up, it'll be awesome," I wrapped my arms around the boy who was clinging to me. I didn't think his fear of heights would effect him this much. Maybe I shouldn't have brought him here... "I'm sorry Jaime," I whispered in his ear, stroking his hair and trying to calm him.

"Why?"

"For making you scared like this..." He sat up and looked at me, then kissed me.

"Don't apologise for being cute..." He whispered. When he pulled away, he looked behind me. He gasped and clung onto me again, harder. "Bad idea..."

"Jaime, just focus on me." I said, noticing he was fine when he was focused on me. He looked up at me, fear in his eyes, and I pressed my lips to his, and he began to relax. "See, it's alright..."

"WOAH, look guys!" Tony interrupted me. I looked in the direction they were looking.

"It's beautiful. Look Jaime," I pulled Jaime on to my lap, wrapping my arms around his back. He wrapped his arms around my shoulders, his body pressed to mine, and he forced himself to look. His eyes widened.

"It's almost as beautiful as you," Jaime said and I laughed, then leaned down to kiss him. The falls were all lit up, and it was a brilliant view from up here. I looked over to Mike and Tony. Tony had his arms wrapped around Mike, Tony's head on Mike's shoulder, and they were both looking at the falls.

"Viccc," I heard Jaime's voice call from the bunks. I had just brushed my teeth and changed, getting ready for bed. "Come cuddle me? Please?" I smiled and walked up to his bunk.

"Of course," I climbed in, wrapping my arms around Jaime. He closed his eyes and I followed.

"I love you Vic," Jaime whispered, turning to face me.

"I love you too Jaime. Good night..."

"Night..." I started to drift off to sleep.

[Jaime]

I smiled to myself. I had Vic... Vic was mine. Vic loved me... and there was no more Kellin to stop me from having Vic.

***

We had just finished our last show, and were getting packed up to head home, finally. I loved being on tour, but sometimes I just want a break, to spend a week relaxing and doing absolutely nothing. Which is what I needed right now.

"Hey Jaime," Vic wrapped his arms around my waist. We were both sweaty from the show, which meant that having someone that close to me couldn't feel nice, but it was Vic so I let it slide.

"Hey Vic," I turned around and smiled. "You did amazing, as usual," I pushed a strand of hair out of his face.

"And so did you Mr. Preciado. So, you got any plans for when we get home?" Vic quickly changed the subject, seeming rather excited that we'd be home soon.

"Sleep. Eat. More sleep. You?" He laughed at my response.

"Pretty much the same, but some time with my boyfriend thrown in there?" He said hopefully.

"But of course Mr. Fuentes, how could I ever survive without you? But now is one time I don't need you," I pushed his arms off me, "because I need to shower, and I doubt you want to come for that,"

"You'd be surprised," he joked, then winked at me. "Be quick though!"
