Take Me Back To The Start (Tony Perry, Mike Fuentes, other people?)

Led Away By Imperfect Impostors

Charlie’s POV: 

Everything hurt. I wasn’t quite sure why everything hurt but it did. I opened my eyes slowly to adjust to the bright light. I was in a hospital bed but I couldn’t remember why. I looked around and saw Austin talking with a dark haired man, he looked familiar but I couldn’t place his face to a name. He was holding a cute little boy that was sleeping, I didn’t think Austin had any friends with children. Austin looked over at me and gave me a warm smile. He was so good to me. Ever since Tony left he's been flying out to check up on me.

“Hey love, you’re awake,” he whispered softly. He walked over and planted a soft kiss on my temple. We've been getting quite close since Tony left but I'm just not ready to let him all the way in yet. His hands were shaking and he smelt strongly of alcohol. 

“Austin have you been drinking,” I asked quietly. He was never good when he drank. I remember him practically raping one of Alan’s friends. It was horrible. 

He looked down at his feet and nodded. His eyes were watering and I thought my heart was going to break. He was such a sweet guy when sober. I sighed and pulled him in to a hug. It didn’t feel right, none of this did. The dark haired man left and a doctor came in with quite a large smile. 

“Ah Charlotte, it’s good to you’re awake,” he smiled and shook my weak hand. 

I returned a smile but it soon faded when I couldn’t remember things. “Um, why am I here? And when did I get back from New York,” I asked. Their faces fell. I didn’t like that, I didn’t like that they looked shocked. 

“You don’t remember,” the doctor asked in a confused manner. I shook my head slowly and felt the worry build inside me. “Oh dear. That’s not exactly what we wanted to hear,” the doctor said quietly. “What can you remember,” he asked.

“I remember Tony leaving me in New York after he caught me in bed with Mike. I know that Austin and I are best friends, I remember him flying out to New York to check on me all the time but I don’t really remember anything else,” I whispered to them. I was running through things in my mind. There were various images flashing through my head but I couldn’t quite make something of them. Several of Tony and I and a child. The child that the dark haired man was holding. 

“I’m afraid that you’ve been through some traumatic experiences Miss Daniels,” the doctor said in an uneasy tone. 

“Oh it’s Mrs. Perry, we’re not divorced yet,” I said pointing out his mistake. I got a shocked look from Austin. “WHAT,” I asked, raising my voice. 

Austin looked at his shoes, “You and Tony have been divorced for almost 3 years, Charlie.” I shook my head because that couldn’t be right, he just left. “Charlie, he beat you pretty bad, enough to make you lose your memory.” 

Tony beat me? Why would he do that? I couldn’t imagine Tony laying a finger on me. Th doctor talked with Austin about releasing me and that I needed to go to the police station. I didn’t want to do anything until I figured out what the hell was going on. Three years is a lot to forget. Austin set down some clothes for me and I eagerly changed.

The drive to the station was quick and I walked in. The man asked for my name which I gave to him slowly. I wasn’t Mrs. Perry apparently. What a weird thing to forget. I was led to an interrogation room and was joined by a middle aged officer and a tall man in an orange jumpsuit. He sported a goatee and several tattoos. He was gorgeous. His hair was a slight side cut but a little longer than usual. This place looked like it had been hard on him. 

“Miss Daniels, thank you for joining me. I hear that you had some difficulties with your memory at the hospital,” he said as cheerfully as possible. I nodded slowly and continued to stare at the man that was holding his head in his hands. “Do you know this man,” the officer asked. I shook my head no, which made the officer look at me awkwardly. Something was drawing me to this man but I couldn't point out why.

“Sir, would you leave us alone for a minute,” I asked. I wasn’t sure what made me ask that question but it felt right to be alone with this man. 

The officer coughed, “I um, don’t think that would be a good idea.” 

“Please,” I asked in a slight begging tone. He nodded and left, leaving me alone with this man. I walked over to him and placed my hands on his cheeks. He melted into the warm touch. I froze as his eyes met mine, I could never forget those chocolate brown eyes that made my knees go weak. “Tony?” 

“Hey baby,” he said warmly. Baby? When did he start talking to me like that? Last time I checked I was the dirty whore that slept with his best friend. “I am so sorry. I meant to protect you and I failed. Austin convinced them that it was me that did those awful things to you.” 

I sat in Tony’s lap and snuggled into him. “What things,” I asked. I was so confused. The man that I loved was in jail for apparently doing something awful to me. 

“H-he raped you and b-beat you,” Tony mustered out. I could see he was getting angry just by talking about it but suddenly my mind flashed an image at me. 

“Now, be the good little slut that I know you are,” Austin growled at me. I was horrified, this was my ex boyfriend and really good friend. He was actually drunk enough to rape and beat me. How was this happening? I silently whimpered as he violated me, I tried to imagine being with Tony or something better than being here. I just want to be at home with Tony and Liam on the couch snuggling together.

My eyes were watering as everything started to rush back to me. Austin raped me, nearly beat Mike and I to death and then managed to put the blame on Tony. I looked at Tony and crashed my lips to his. I needed to feel something with him, I needed some form of sexual contact with him. I needed to know he was still here with me and that I wasn't imagining things.

The officer came back in and interrupted us. “What exactly is going on?” 

“It wasn’t Tony,” I said grimly. “It was Austin. All of it was Austin. Tony tried to save me.” 

The officer looked shocked and released Tony from being cuffed at the hands and feet. We then walked down the hall where he slapped the cuffs on to Austin. 

“What the fuck do you think you’re doing,” Austin asked gruffly. 

“You’re under arrest for raping this young woman and nearly beating a man to death,” the officer said coldly. He looked at Tony, “I’m very sorry Mr. Perry. Your belongings are at the front desk.” 

Tony nodded and snaked an arm around my waist. This nightmare was over. We could finally just try and be Tony and Charlotte again. I just wanted to finish this tour in one pierce. Without Austin. Tony turned to me and pulled me into a passionate kiss. I moaned into his mouth as his hands roamed to places that missed his touch. 

“I’m in lesbians with you,” Tony whispered, quoting my favorite movie. 

“I love you too,” I whispered back into his ear. 

He picked me up and threw me onto his back before running off in the direction of the 2 tour buses parked outside the station. John was still holding my darling Liam, who was now awake and being a terror. I laughed and Tony ran up to all of them. 

“LET’S FUCK THIS SHIT UP,” we both yelled as we got on the PTV bus.

Yeah, the rest of this tour is going to be great now that I have my sexicans back.

Not proof read, so sorry for any mistakes. I think I'm almost finished with this story but I'm thinking about a sequel. I don't know how many are reading this but I hope you guys might read the sequel. I'm probably going to have a few more chapters. I might also start another story about Vic or something like that. I'm not sure, I just think this specific story line has run its course.
