Pretty Odd (A Ryden fic)

Tour

The tour started off pretty smooth, I didn't let Ryan distract me as much and instead focused on my music... even when he would have to change in front of me in our dressing room. All the guys on the Nintendo Fusion tour were really cool, and they didn't care that we were basically scared children on their first ever tour. The guys in Fall Out Boy were the ones we grew closest to, maybe because Pete signed us, maybe not. After a week or so, I noticed Patrick and Ryan were really close... like weirdly close. They acted like they've known each other forever, and I was pretty jealous of Patrick for getting to be so close to Ryan. Oh Ryan, how I wish that we could be closer than just friends. I mean, best friends... not lovers. Nope. Not gay. I am 900% straight. Ryan bounces into the room with Patrick following behind him. I quickly hide in the closet and hope they didn't notice me. Ryan closes and locks the door.

"So have you heard anything from him yet?" Ryan asks Patrick.

"No, and if I did I would tell you immediately. You'd think after this many years he would at least come down and make sure we aren't dead or something."

"Yeah, dad is kind of a dick sometimes."

"Sometimes? Try all the time brother." Patrick hugs Ryan. "Maybe he'll come down now that both of us are popular among the humans."

"Brother? Humans? " I think aloud and scare both Patrick and Ryan. Ryan opens the closet door and I stare back horrified as if I just discovered them hooking up.

"Brendon why were you hiding in the closet?" Ryan asks.

"I saw you and Patrick come in and I wanted to know why you two were so close because I'm kinda jeal- curious." Ryan looks back at Patrick.

"Brother can this cutie please know our secret, I mean he's heard enough he's gonna figure it out sooner or later." Cutie? Me? Oh god I think I'm gonna squeal. Patrick nods before I can react to Ryan's words. "Look Brendon, Patrick and I are brothers but not in the way you would be. You see our 'father' created us together, so we're basically twins. You know him as Andy Biersack, and he is one of the two main gods. We're technically gods too, but nowhere near like him. We escaped him and ran to earth and now we're trying to live like humans. Also Patty is why we got signed."

"You're a god, and Patrick Stump's brother?" I wish my life was that cool. I'm just some Mormon kid from Vegas."

"Brendon you're not just some Mormon kid from Vegas. You're my favorite Mormon kid from Vegas. I wouldn't trade you for the world."

"Really? You actually like me?"

"Brendon, sweetie, if I didn't like you would I really keep you in my band. And pretend I don't hear you talking about my ass in your sleep, just because I know you would be embarrassed about it."

I stare down at the ground "Do I really talk in my sleep."

"Yeah, and it's usually about me, mostly how cute I am, and how cute my butt is. Sometimes you talk about your family, not often though."

"Oh, sorry about that. I promise I don't like you like that."

Ryan cups my face in his hand. "Bren it's okay." He gives me a light kiss on my nose and leaves with Patrick. I'm left alone, dumbfounded at what just happened. Once I gather myself and change, I make my way out to stand side stage and wait for everyone to fill in the auditorium.

Ryan skips up to me and jokingly whispers "Was that everything you dreamed of, or do you yearn for more?"

"I yearn for all of you, meet me in my bunk right after our set." I continue with the joke. Ryan smirks and runs off to change. I follow behind to do the same. Our set goes by and I stand side stage watching all the other bands perform. Halfway through Fall Out Boy, Ryan comes up to me and pulls me into the dressing room.
