Chris' POV :

I wake up to the sound of Nick and Matt half-yelling in the kitchen. I'm not sure why they're being so loud, but I figure it's probably just something stupid.

"Fuck yourself. I'm going upstairs" I overhear Nick say.

I hear the faint laughing of Matt, it's getting louder and I realize that he's standing outside my door.

I hear a couple knocks and I tell him to come in. I'm still in bed and in my pyjama pants but I couldn't care less. I notice Matt's eyes scanning around my room, not saying anything for a few seconds.

"What the fuck do you want? You and Nick woke me up with your loud arguing" I say, slightly annoyed. Matt's eyes widen.

"So I take it you heard us?" he asks, twirling his finger around his other hand.

"I heard Nick say 'fuck yourself' before you came in here, but that's about it" I reply.

He lets out a slight sigh. I'm not exactly sure why, but it catches my attention.

"Okay, good. Have you eaten?" He asks.

"No, not yet. But why do you care if I overheard you?" I ask. I feel like there's something going on and for some reason, I have to be the one who's in the dark.

"Don't worry. Do you want me to start some food for you?" Matt speaks while walking to leave my room. I nod my head.

'Whatever' I think.

There's definitely something going on, and I'm gonna figure out what it is.

Nick's POV :

I need to figure out how to tell Chris about Tones. Maybe I should text Larri —but what would he know? He's not a triplet. I honestly have no idea what to do.

I let out a big exhale as Tones walks from my bathroom to my room. He's in an extra pair of pyjama pants and his own white tank undershirt. He looks really good right now.

He notices me staring and smirks a little. God, he knows what he's doing.

I swiftly stand up and walk over to my boyfriend. My arms wrap around his shoulders and he interlocks ours fingers. I place a soft kiss on his shoulder and turn him around gently.

"Matt knows about us now" I say, just above a whisper. Tones' face lights up slightly.

"One down. One to go, I suppose" he says back.

"I'm honest to god shitting myself about telling Chris" I say, leaning forward and resting my head on Tones, looking to the wall.

He grabs my head and holds me in place, looking into my eyes. I get a bit flustered.

"But we'll get through it together, right?" he speaks softly.

"Yeah" I reply, pulling my boyfriend into a tight hug.
