shake on It

Chapter 4

The next day,

Vegas woke up to a loud knocking on the door, he fell asleep in the living room and could barely remember anything beyond Pete getting in his car, he stood up and his dropped when he saw the said man sleeping on the other side of the sofa, "Shiiiit!" He screamed in a whisper and the knocking came back so he ran to get it,

He opened the door and his brother was standing there and screamed when he saw him, "PHIIIII!" "Shhhhhhh! Be quiet! You're so loud! Fuck my head is killing me," vegas walked back in and Macau followed him, talking in a lower voice this time, "Sorry, I was just worried cause you didn't answer, what's happening who is that gu-" they reached the living room before he could finish his line and his eyes fell on the boy on the sofa,

"Holly shit so it's serious," Vegas sat on a chair clutching his head tightly, "Of course it's serious, why is it that shocking??" "N-no it's not, I just thought you went there to propose to Tay, I mean we all thought so because that was the plan...I guess, or maybe not?" "I just agreed so Father can stop nagging, but I never wanted to marry Tay, I barely know him," "Ahh, so are you gonna marry him?" Macau asked pointing at Pete, "That's between me and him," "why didn't you tell us that you were dating someone then, it would've saved you a lot of headaches," "It wasn't my decision alone to make, we were keeping it a secret," "I see,"

Vegas stood up and went to Pete who thankfully was still fast asleep, he carried him carefully and Pete wrapped his arms around Vegas tightly whimpering a little, "shhh it's okay go back to sleep," he whispered and Macau was watching in awe, "I will take him to the bedroom and be right back, go make some breakfast," "okay...whatever you say," and so vegas disappeared into the hallway.

After he placed Pete gently in the bed he covered him with a blanket and sat on the edge of the bed staring at him, and he finally remembered how Pete ended up in his place,

"𝙊𝙠𝙖𝙮 𝙨𝙞𝙧."

Vegas returned to his brother who had made some coffee, "he's cute," Macau said with a smirk, he always jumps to the first opportunity he gets to tease his phi, "Shut up, how did he take it by the way?" "Well, you know how he is, he was definitely not pleased but he wasn't angry as well, or maybe not yet, I'm sure he's already doing a background check on your boyfriend as we speak, if he finds something unpleasant, well..."
"He won't, Pete's family are...different, they fought to be where they are today, and our father respects this kind of shit," vegas took a sip of his coffee hoping it would help with the headache,

"Right, he does...", After a brief moment of silence Macau spoke again," What about Tay? What happened to him?" "I don't know, and I don't care. Anyway, I think you should go before he wakes up," Macau made a complaining face, "But I want to meet him!" "You will meet him just not now, I will bring him to meet the family when the time is right," "But -" "Mac!" "Ughh, fine! I can't believe an asshole like you actually found a lover, " Macau mumbled as he got out the door but Vegas didn't follow him, he was too exhausted.

When Pete woke up it was already 10 in the morning, the unfamiliar surroundings made him jump from the bed immediately, "don't panic," said Vegas, who was sitting across the room sipping on another cup of coffee while finishing some work on his laptop, Pete tried to stand up but his head was spinning and hurting so bad, "aghhhh fuck," he sat back immediately clutching his head, "there are some painkillers on the nightstand, take some and try to relax, do you want some coffee?" Pete just looked at him in confusion, "why am I here?" He asked,

Vegas looked back at his laptop and continued talking, "Well, after you fell asleep on my shoulder last night I realised that I didn't know your address, and of course I wouldn't leave you outside so I brought you here, and no, we didn't sleep together so rest assured," Pete leaned against the headboard trying to recall the previous night but it was all blurry and vague, then he suddenly remembered something and started searching for his phone, he opened it and checked the date

'09-10-2024'

He threw his phone on the bed and let out a sigh of relief, vegas was watching him silently, "you okay?" He asked, "Yeah, I- thank you for not leaving me in the streets I guess," "You're welcome, I will go out to take care of something, you can leave whenever you want, send me your address so I can pick you up for dinner later," "okay, I will," vegas smiled briefly and stood up to leave, "don't open the door to anyone," "wait are you really gonna leave me here all by myself?" Pete asked as he got out of bed, "Yeah, why, are you scared?" "No It's just, you barely know me and you are leaving me alone in your house,"

"Ahhh! well if I don't trust you enough to leave you in my place, how can I trust you with something as big and serious as a fake marriage, besides I have cameras here so if you do anything suspicious I will know, have a nice day!" Pete was left speechless, this man definitely has an odd way of speaking, he surely won't find any issues with faking a marriage, Pete on the other hand? Well he was just beginning to realise the mess he got himself into even more,

As he was about to get up his phone rang, it was Arm, "hello?" "Bro where are you I'm at your place but you're not here! You fucking scared me bro," "I'm sorry I'm actually at Vegas's, I spent the night at his place, why? did something happen??" "You mean besides the bomb you two dropped last night on everyone? Yes, something else happened, the security guard from the gallery sent me a video footage of the parking lot and, there's something in it," Pete stopped whatever he was doing and gave all his attention to Arm, "What is it?"

"Someone was messing with your car last night"
