Love is a Broken Window | Cricky [C]

| Chris' POV |

It's always nice to see Angelo. I was happy to get to spend some time with him again before we left for tour. We all said goodbye, heading back home. Of course because Shiloh and Devin lived in the same apartment building as Ricky and I, we all drove here in the same car.

The drive home was rather quiet. Halfway through, Devin barely broke the silence.

"Can you tell me about earlier or do we have to save it until home?" He muttered to Shiloh as he ran his fingers along Shiloh's arm.

"No, I'll tell you." Shiloh said. "I don't mind if Chris and Ricky know. I just... didn't want to tell everyone at once. I, um, I used to date one of the guys in Black Veil Brides. It didn't end well."

"Which one of them?" Dev asked.

He sighed and looked down at his hands. "Their bassist, Ashley."

"I always knew he was gay." I mumbled.

Ricky glared at me. "Chris."

"Sorry." I responded as I glanced at him in the review mirror. "I'm just shocked you dated such a... erm..."

"Whore?" He asked.

"Um... yeah."

Devin snickered a bit. "I don't think you realize that Shiloh isn't as innocent as he seems."

"What'd you mean?" Ricky asked.

"He's fucked like half the industry."

"Babe!"

"I love you but it's true!"

"I know it is but you don't have to tell them that!"

"They'd find out eventually!"

"Guys!" I interrupted. "It's not worth fighting over. Just... Do we have to worry about trouble with Ashley?"

"As long as I don't run into him when he's drunk. He's nice sober but drunk, he's a fucking asshole." Shiloh said.

Devin huffed. "If he dares touches you-"

"He won't." Shiloh set his hand on Devin's leg. "Okay? We'll be okay."

"I'm sure you'll be fine, okay?" I stated.

"He can't take you away from me." Devin whispered as he kissed Shi's temple and held his hand.

"I know." Shiloh grinned.

Ricky turned back to them. "You two have been really close lately."

They both blushed. Devin turned his head closer towards Shiloh's, whispering, "Do you want to tell them?"

"If you want to."

He smiled. "We decided to get engaged. We're going to have a long engagement though, but we're definitely getting married someday."

Ricky and I met eyes. We both smiled. I was really happy for them! I'm glad they've decided to be fully committed to each other. They deserve to stay together. They love each other so much, and that's why I'm not worried about Ashley or any of that.
