“Jay, mate you in?” I heard a strong Northern accent shout into the house. I knew the voice to well. My body froze I was unable to move. How did Jay know him? And why would he know someone like that? Jay had left hours ago and left me in the house on my own. He was always busy lately and I didn’t mind. It gave me time to find my feet. Find things I was into. He taught me how to use his laptop so I found myself addicted to the internet. It was weird. Most people my age knew how to work these things and here was me slowly learning, slowly finding myself more somewhat normal. “What the hell?” He spoke as he found me sat in the living room. I looked up at him blankly not knowing what to say. “Where’s Jay?” He asked as he took a seat on the couch next to me. I shifted uncomfortable moving myself further away from him. “Out.” I replied trying not to look at him. “Where?” He replied to me I could tell he was annoyed with how blunt I was being. “I don’t know he doesn’t tell me where he goes and I don’t expect him too. He’s just out.” I sighed I wanted Jay to come home I really needed him to come home. 

I sat in silence as he stared at me. “Do you mine?” I asked as he was still staring. He stood up and leaned against the door. He wore tight black skinny jeans and just a plain white T. Just like the night I first ‘met’ him. I had become to know him a little too well than I had hoped or wanted. “So Jay hasn’t told you about us has he?” He chuckled slightly still leaning against the door. “Who is us and why would he need to tell me about you?” I asked confused. We sat in silence for so long and when he begins to talk it’s like a riddle. He chuckled again before leaving the house. Leaving me confused. 

“Jay?” I called out as I heard the door go. I turned to look at the clock 2am. “Yeah it’s me.” He shouted in reply. He sounded sober which was unusual considering the time he got home at. He walked in and sat down on the edge of the bed. “How do you know Tom?” I asked he turned to me with a surprised expression on his face. “He stopped by earlier looking for you.” I added. “He’s my band mate. I would have told you sooner but I didn’t think it would matter.” He sighed as he got into bed next to me. “You’re in a band?” It was my turn to be surprised. “Yeah and quite a successful one at that. I think that’s kind of why I like you so much. I mean you didn’t know about any of that, you had no clue. You were real with me. You didn’t suck up my arse just to be close to me. You have been possibly the only one who is real with me, who I know I can turn too and I guess I just didn’t want you to know about the band?” He sighed pulling me close to him. We had grown a lot closer since he had told me how he felt. I wanted to let myself love him too. I felt like I did I was just unsure. 

“You sure you want to meet the lads yeah?” He asked as he held my hand. Ever since I had said yes to meeting them he had been overprotective. If only he knew I knew Tom. I walked into the studio to see 2 out of 4 working away. Tom and some guy with a shaved head were sat with beers just laughing and looking so unfocused on what they were meant to be doing. Jay coughed making everyone turn and look at me. “Guys this is Beth. Beth this is Nathan, Max, Siva and well you’ve met Tom.” Jay smiled at me as he introduced me them all. I went and sat on the sofa away from everyone. I didn’t want to be there but I went to keep Jay happy. I couldn’t let on that I knew Tom or how. I felt like if he found out how he wouldn’t love me anymore. 

“You alright?” I heard his voice say. I let my body sink further into the sofa. I wanted the ground just to open up and swallow me whole. He made my skin crawl. “Tom please just leave me alone.” I said in almost a whisper. I looked over at Jay to see him writing away with Nathan. He looked so focussed it was weird seeing him that way. I had only ever seen him smiling and happy or well hung-over never focused. “Oh come on don’t be like that, it’s been a while let’s have a catch up if you know what I mean.” He winked before chuckling. I felt the sofa go down so I guessed he had sat next to me. I continued looking over at Jay hoping he’d look up at me and come over. “I don’t do that anymore Tom.” I spoke up not wanting to talk about it. “What you don’t have sex?” He chuckled thinking the situation was funny. “Exactly that. I have no need to and I especially don’t do it for money. I mean only thing worse than me were the low lives that paid me for it.” I smiled sweetly at him; I saw the anger rush onto his face he went to speak but Jay walked over just in time.
