Suits and Secret (Vegaspete)

Chapter 15

Pete has been busy finding everything he lost or what he thinks he lost, Vegas has been there to support him and cheer him on in every step of the way, Pete tends to have nightmares remembering all the things that happened to him and of course vegas was right there to comfort him and even through all of this Vegas had his own issues but decided to Pete before himself even if he know deep down it was killing him. Eventually Pete realized all of this, but decided to better himself just for him. Pete began to better himself then being grateful that Vegas was always there for him, Eventually he began to feel alot better and Vegas Insomnia got worse.

It was a rainy evening and they both decided to cuddle up on their patio, watching the rain. Both were comfortable amongst each other's warmth and silence.

"Vegas?"

"Mhh?"

"Can we talk?"

"Is it serious?"

"Yes"

"Let's go inside"

Pete packed up everything and they headed inside on to their couch. Pete sighed as Vegas sat down staring at him, Pete stared at his face, his dark eye bags and sadden face.

"Are you ok?"

"Ye-"

"Don't lie to me, Vegas, your not getting enough sleep and I don't know what else but your keeping something from me"

He sighed, looking away from my face and leaning in the couch

"I-, Yes your right Pete, but I don't want to worry you Pete"

"Don't you think that I have to worry about you?"

"I know but-"

"But what?"

"You were going through your own problems Pete, I could not bring up mine knowing that I needed to be there for you, seeing you cry or how you wake up screaming, It hurts me Pete alot, so I couldn't say anything about me when I know I had to be there for you"

"V-vegas"

I felt bad, terribly even, he put me before him

"But it's killing you Vegas, you can talk to me now, tell me what is wrong please"

"Everything is, Pete"

The sad look he gave me, I knew he felt vulnerable, but I want to see that side of him, he doesn't need to be strong all the time.

"Come here"

I opened my arms, he looked at me before diving into them, I heard sniffling and it hurted me alot.  I fixed our position so that his head was in my chest, his arms around my waist and our legs stretched out on the couch.

"It's ok"

I whispered as I ran my hand through his hair,

"I promise"

We sat there as I let him cry on to my chest and I whispered nothing but sweet encouraging words to him.

"After-"

He sniffled a bit, and sighed before speaking again

"It's ok, take your time"

"After everything that..you know..and I saw you going into a worst state than when I first found, I started to feel that what I was doing was not enough, so I did everything to prove myself that I am worthy, but my fathers last words started to get to me even though we cut ties, and every thing he forced me to do started to haunt me and sometimes It feels like it's happen all over again"
