I can't deal with all your lovers

Parte siete:where is he

Diego sat on the couch as a boy walked in with sodas.

Boy:"yo Diego, you good?"
Diego:"no."
Boy:"what? Why?"

Diego shrugs avoiding eye contact from the boy.
He looks at his phone and then turns it off.
The boy walks off and Diego gets a call.
It's from vegas.
He lets his phone ring for a couple seconds before answering.

Diego:"hello?"
Vegas:"Diego!?"
Diego:"*sigh*what do you want?"
Vegas:"are you okay?! Where are you?"
Diego:"I'm at a friends house."
Vegas:"friend?"

Diego sighed and shook his head as the boy entered the room again.
He plopped down on the couch next to Diego.

Diego:"I'm at Payton's..listen I have to go."

Diego hung up before vegas could answer.
Vegas was shocked that Diego was at Payton's house.
He was confused and mad.
They used to talk shit about Payton,they hated Payton.
He didn't know if he should go over and confront him or just let it go.
He sat there and wondered what to do.

Meanwhile, Payton and Diego were playing on Payton's vr.
Payton had the headset in while Diego sat and watched him hit the air mindlessly.
He wanted to start a conversation, but how?
Diego sat there.
His arms were crossed as he thought of ways to talk to Payton.

Diego:"so, payton."

Diego stopped as payton took off the headset and turned to Diego.
He walked over to a table and set the vr down.

Payton:"yeah?"
Diego:"um, how have you been?"

Payton shrugged and plopped down next to Diego.
Diego was getting bored, he looked at payton and payton looked at Diego.
They locked eyes for a second before Diego turned away and blushed.
Diego stood up.

Diego:"I have to go."

Payton nodded and Diego grabbed his bag.
Payton walked Diego to the door, Diego set his bags down and turned to payton.
Diego smiled at Payton.
But before Diego could open the door, the door bell rang.
Diego's hand stopped at the doorknob.
He looked back at payton.
Payton motioned for Diego to check who it was.
Diego looked through the peephole and saw black curly hair and brown doe eyes.
It was vegas.
Diego jolted back from the door in shock.
Payton was surprised at Diego's reaction.
Payton went to go look at who was there.
Vegas rang the doorbell faster, he was desperate to get in.
Payton opened the door.
Vegas looked down at payton and scoffed.
Vegas tried to push thru payton, but he stood his ground.
Vegas looked down at payton with hatred.

Vegas:"get out of my way."

Payton:"or what?"

Vegas grunted as he forced himself past payton.
Payton fell to the floor and let out a wail of pain.
Vegas bursted thru doors, looking for Diego.
Payton lay on the floor, holding his ribs.
Vegas had pushed him quite hard and his ribs had been bruised.
By then, Diego had already fled the scene.
When vegas realized that Diego wasn't at the house he was distraught.
He raced to the front room where payton lay on the floor.
He looked down at payton and kicked him in the ribs,injuring him even more.
Payton screamed in agony as vegas kicked his bruised ribs.

Vegas:"WHERES DIEGO?!"

Payton shook his head, unable to talk due to the immense amount of pain he was in.
Vegas kicked him again, in the face, breaking his nose.

Vegas:"WHERE IS HE?!"

Payton:"I DONT KNOW!"

Payton managed to scream those words in hopes that it would stop vegas from hurting him.
Payton covered his face, he was shaking profusely.
Payton began to cry.
Vegas stood there, shocked .
Shocked about what he had done.
What he had done do payton.
He did it for Diego.
He just wanted to know where Diego was.
He loves Diego.
He needed Diego.

Where is diego?
