The tour that changed everything (re done)

I listened to Bill pour his heart out to me about the situation with Tom and georg. I hated how they used bill when they were fighting with each other. I knew I had to go get bill and take him away from everyone.
I know Bill's past. I don't think he is aware that I know but someone had to keep him alive all those years. I guess you could say I was Bill's body guard without him knowing. I have watched him kill many people but I have killed twice as many keeping him safe. Shocker i know everyone thinks i'm the nice shy one but im only like that with the band. I have had my moments with them though all of them except for bill. I could never be mad or fight with Bill. I know everything he has been through and respect him for it in return he respects me.
"Bill, I paid the hotel for another night stay there and I will be there in 4 hours ok" I said, grabbing my go bag i kept ready at all times.
"G-gus you don't have to-"
"Bill im coming to help you dont fight with me on this"
"Ok i will wait for you hear" i could hear the dead tone in bill's voice.
"Don't do anything stupid ok.." I ask almost in a whisper.
"I promise i won't gus"
With that i hang up and head to my car. It was going to be a 4 hour drive but I could cut it down to 2 if I just take some back roads and speed like hell. It's almost like I was reliving my past with bill. Speeding down highways to keep up with his reckless driving, going to hotels and houses to check on him, and making sure he stayed alive. I wouldn't have life any other way to be honest.

Hearing a knock on the door I went and opened it, thanking it was Gustav. I should have checked because I was met with a pissed off tom.
"What are you still doing at this fucking hotel! Are you waiting for georg to come back and fuck you!"
I stepped back, the rage in Tom's eyes scared me alot and I just wanted to hide from him. I stumbled back going to try and hide in the bathroom but Tom grabbed my hand hard hurting it.
"OW! TOM YOUR HURTING M-"
A sudden slap hit my cheek making my face turn away from impact. I was shocked Tom just slapped me. My bottom lip started to quiver as I turned to look at Tom. there was no love in his eyes, in fact his eyes were full of hate. I took in a breath as my body started to shake.
"I don't care if I'm hurting you. In fact, I don't care if I keep hurting you. You're mine, you can't just go sleeping around like a whore!"
Tom spat in my face, making me flinch as I dropped to the floor. Why was I always getting hurt by someone if it wasn't Tom it was Georg. Tom continued yelling at me and throwing my stuff around. He was very angry and I was trying to dodge anything that came my direction. Soon I made it to the bathroom with my phone and locked myself inside.
"GET YOUR SORRY ASS OUT HERE BITCH!! I'M NOT DONE WITH YOU YET!!"
I breathe heavily calling gustav who picked up right away.
"G-gus Tom is here and he has lost it i-i think he is going to kill me.." i whispered out terrified. My eyes stayed fixed on the door handle as it jiggled and Tom banged on the door. I could hear Gustav swear under his breath and hurd him getting out of the car. Was he already here? It had only been like 2 hours since he told me he was on his way.
"Gus, are you here?" I whisper and he just hums in reply as I hear the front desk lady greet him. A sigh of relief leaves my lips as Gustav speaks to me again.
"Stay in the bathroom. I will be up in 3 minutes and don't let Tom know I'm coming."
I stayed quiet as Tom continued to bang on my bathroom door yelling and screaming at me. It was all getting so fuzzy to the point Tom's voice was muffled. Why was my brain fogging then i saw it. I looked in the mirror and saw blood running down my forehead all the way to my neck. I must have hit my head at some point and didn't know. Soon I slumped over and everything started to fade as i heard the hotel door open and Tom getting thrown to the ground.

The first thing I did was push Tom to the ground when I got the door open. He got right back in my face and started yelling.
"What the fuck are you doing hear!?! Are you hear to fuck Bill as well!! Is he everyone's whore!!"
"NEVER! EVER! TALK ABOUT BILL LIKE THAT GOT IT BITCH!" I said as I shoved Tom to the ground, getting on top of him and punching his face. I could feel the punches I got from Tom but nothing stopped me from protecting Bill. I guess some of the other people called the police because soon me and Tom were getting pulled away from each other. I found myself in the hallway talking to a cop as Tom did the same on the other side of the hallway.
"I was called by my friend Bill because Tom was banging on the bathroom door threatening him. '' I told the officer and sighed as a paramedic was tending to my wounds. The cops were nice and tried their best to get the full story from the both of us. I for sure thought I was going to jail but they let us off with a warning. They stated it was a misunderstanding and I was shocked that they let Tom go as well. He is the one that started all this in the first place and who knows what he did to bill. Wait. where was Bill the cops didn't talk to him and he wasn't out here. Was he still in the bathroom? I went to the door and the handle was locked. I tried calling Bill's phone but it just rang and I could hear it. Panicking, I rammed my body into the door a few times before it burst open revealing a bloody Bill passed out on the floor.
"BILL?!?!" I rushed over to him checking his pulse just then he woke up and looked at me with weak eyes.
"G-gus gus you made it" he softly smiled and i hugged him close I cant lose my best friend not like this. I picked him up and carried him to my car I could hear Tom behind me but ignored him only focused on getting Bill help. Speeding to the hospital i rush him inside the ER and call out for help.

I was back again in the field as my younger self played and my older self sat next to me again.
"Am I going to die this time?" I asked, turning to look at him.
"No you just passed out from a minor head wound you will be ok" he says watching little Bill chasing a butterfly.
"What is our future like?"
"Well you have many choices. I come from the future of you and Tom but that's a long time away "I heard him chuckle.
"How long?" i ask
"Well considering im 33 a pretty long time" he looks at me and i sigh looking down.
"Why does he hurt us so much i thought he loved us"
"Tom is unwell right now. I can't tell you what it is but I can give you a hint. He has had this problem before and it was caused by the same thing." he says looking at the field again.

Drugs.

I should have thought of that. I lay back on the grass exhausted from everything and feel a small body hug me. I look to my stomach, seeing my younger self.
"Its ok macky tom will be happy again he always is"
My eyes tear up seeing how optimistic I was as a child. I rub his back and nod, closing my eyes to relax for a moment.
I woke up in my hospital room and looked around. I felt the bandages on my head and saw Gustav looking out the window.
"Gus?" my voice was quiet and he turned to me smiling.
"Hay Billy how you feeling"
"My head hurts alot" he nodded and sat by my bed.
"What happened? '' I asked and listened to Gustav explain everything that went on. I was also shocked they didn't get arrested and sighed.
"Is Tom mad at me? '' I could see his eyes fade a little and he looked down.
"Maybe but don't worry he won't hurt you, I will make sure of it." Gustav says, looking back to me.

A flash of a stranger I met when I was in the gang flashed across Gustav's face for a second.
Was that Gustav back then? Was he the one that kept me safe?...
