I Got My Heart On You (Ronan Keating / Michael Graham / Boyzone) Fan Fiction

Twenty One

And that was how we found ourselves in Michael's large lounge a short while later, all getting extremely drunk.

Amy and Ronan were cuddled up together on one of Mike's sofas. Steo, Anthony, Shane, Joanne, Kim, and Keith were all sat around Mikey's table playing some kind of random drinking game.

I wasn't entirely sure what they were doing, but whatever it was, involved a lot of noise.

Me, Mike and Gregg were sat on Mike's other sofa, enjoying a quiet drink. 

At least we were until Gregg bought up the dreaded 'Rick'.

"Riccccccccck is an" I hiccupped not finishing the sentence. Gregg and Mikey who were sat either side of me, laughed. Everyone else was oblivious. 

"Arsehole" finished Gregg. 

I nodded at him gratefully. "Yep" he agreed. 

"What exactly did he do?" asked Mike curiously. 

"I erm..." I hiccupped again. Good job really or I might have starting crying. 

"He, erm.." I looked at the floor. Embarrassed to be admitting it after he'd betrayed me before.

"I..."

"I found him in bed with someone else"

Suddenly Mikey had his arm around me and was pulling me into him, Gregg was looking concerned and I realised that I was crying. 

Damned alcohol!

"Sorry" I sniffed

"Hey, don't be sorry. I can't believe he did that to you" 

"Neither can I" I muttered.

"I can" said Gregg quietly. 

"I know, I know. You told me to be careful" "And I was, just not careful enough" I said quietly. 

I had really been an idiot. but right now in my drunken and confused state, I missed him.

"Another drink?" Mikey was asking me whilst I was wiping my face. I turned and looked at him through my blurry eyes. "I don't think..." 

Oh what the hell!

"Please" I smiled at him gratefully. I stood up slightly wobbly from the sofa and stumbled my way to the bathroom that Gregg had directed to me earlier... I never could hold my drink.

When I went back into the room Gregg had disappeared and Mike was sat on the sofa with a bottle of red and was pouring out two glasses. Presumably one for me and one for him. 

He looked up and smiled as he saw me walking towards him. I smiled back and sat at the side of him. Suddenly feeling slightly apprehensive. "Where's Gregg?" I asked. "He went to talk to Ronan about something" 

"Ah ok" I daren't look in that direction, as the last time I had Amy had been all over him and I'd felt sick. "Here you go" I jumped as Mikey touched my arm gently. 

"Thank you" I said quietly as I accepted the glass from him.

"Vic, you know I.." he paused, I eyed him curiously. "I don't want to talk shop. But I just want to say that I think you, Gregg, Shelley and Karen, have done a great job on the album so far"

"Thanks" I blushed.

"Hey, I heard about you and Karen" I teased changing the subject slightly.

Mikey went bright red and I laughed. "It was just a fling Vic, years ago" 

"So there's no Karen then?" I joked. 

"No Karen, no Shelley" He looked into my eyes, "In fact Vic, there's no one but you and I" he was almost whispering to me, I was staring back at him and there was something.. "and I..."

"What are you two whispering about?" I silently cursed Gregg who suddenly plonked himself beside me on the sofa again. there had been something between us then. In fact I had almost thought that he was about to kiss me. 

But I maybe was just hoping for that part...

"Nothing" I muttered. Mikey took my hand and squeezed it suddenly. I took this as a sign. A good sign. I turned and smiled slowly at him. Maybe he had been about to kiss me?! 

Damn you Alexander....

"Vic was just saying how much she misses you" said Mikey seriously. I burst out laughing and squeezed his hand back, hoping that Gregg wouldn't see that we were now holding hands.

"Hmph" said Gregg grumpily not really getting the joke. "I think I'm gonna head to bed" he said "are you sure it's ok for me to stay?" he asked Mikey for about the millionth time that evening. 

"Of course" 

"Straight up the stairs, first door on the left" "You ok, or do you need a hand?" 

"I'm ok" said Gregg got up and walked straight into the coffee table in front of him. We all burst out laughing.

"It's good to see you smiling Vic" said Mikey as Gregg left the room. I turned to him. "You too" I said. 

"You looked miserable earlier" I teased. "I was, but you changed that" he said softly.

"Me?"

"yeah. Vic. I think we've got on really well tonight. I..."

"Oi! Graham!" it was Ronan. I groaned silently. 

Not again.

"Yeah?"

"We're heading off now" He sounded closer. I looked up to see Ronan and Amy stood infront of me. Amy was glaring at me. I instinctively moved closer to Mikey on the sofa, he put his arm around me and I rested my head on his shoulder. Ronan looked confused and I resisted the urge to laugh. "Safe journey home" said Mike. 

"Haha it's not like we're going far" said Ronan and waved as they left the room.

"So you were saying?" I asked quietly as I lifted my head from Mikey's shoulder and looked into his eyes. 

"I don't remember" he practically whispered, "but I wanted to give you something" he said as he pulled me closer to him. 

"you did?" 

"Yes this" he said as he bought his face just inches from mine, looked into my eyes and kissed me softly.
