Alex's pov
I opened the door to the hotel room. "He/She did it!!!" The two of them pointed at each other, blaming each other. Brendon and Halo were covered in cake.

Halos pov- that morning.
I woke up to sunshine peeking through the windows. Ha! Just kidding!!! I woke up to Jack jumping on the bed. "Halo wake up!!!!!" I groaned, "Jack leave me to wallow in my sadness!!!"

"Please!! Pretty please!!" Jack begged. "No." I rolled onto my side and pulled the blanket over myself. Jack sighed melodramatically, "fine Halo." He walked out and I sighed in content, then closed my eyes.

But then!!!! My warmpth was taken away, how sad. "Noooo, you cum slut!! Give it back!!" I opened my eyes and Brendon was staring at me, an amused smile on his face. "Cum slut?" I groaned, "please go away" I said into my pillow.

I was then picked up and carried downstairs. "Where are we going? I'm in public and look like trash!" I complained to Brendon. "Oh shut up, you're not trash." "I didn't say I was trash, I said I looked like it. And for your information I am trash!!" He shook his head.

A cold breeze hit me and I shivered. "See!! Now I'm even more cold!! Why are we even outside?" I looked around and noticed a pool. "No." Brendon smirked and started to walk faster.

"No Brendon! NOO!" He threw me and as a last resort I screamed "I CANT SWIM!!" Let me just say the five seconds I got to look at his face were priceless.

He jumped in after me and I swim away from him. I quickly ran to the door and locked him outside. "Hey! You can't lock that door! And your soaking wet!" A manager walked over to me.

"I'm sorry sir, but you see that guy out there? He threw me into the pool so I'm just getting payback." He shrugged, "just make sure you unlock the door after." I smiled and he walked away. "Halo let me in!" "No!"

He tried the door then groaned and turned away. I quickly but quietly unlocked the door, then ran upstairs. I grab a towel and my bag then run into the bathroom.

I dried myself off and changed. "Shit" I mumbled. I undid my bandages as blood started to soak them. "Fuck!" I said louder than I should have. "Halo... you okay in there?" Brendon. "Yeah...... No please help me." I started to freak out. Carp! ;)

"Halo." Brendon opened the door and looked at my arms. "Halo-" "make it stop" I said and held my arms out to him. "Ok- um... here. He pulled me to the sink and turned on the hot water. "Water stops bleeding, just wash your arms and I'll get- I'll get bandages and stuff."

He went through all the cabinets trying to find bandages while I tried to keep from showing how much pain I was actually in. "Ah ha! There you are you bastards."

He walked over to me and dried off my arms before re-wrapping them. "Hey I have an Idea- why are you crying? Don't cry, Your uncle Brendon is here to rescue you!" He said smiling but his smile soon faded. "Halo what's wrong?"

"Why am I a fail at life?" I asked. He ran his thumbs under my eyes wiping the tears, "you not a fail, I promise. You're just having a rough patch, everyone has those. You'll be fine, maybe not now but eventually. Now how about we get your mind off things? Want cake?" "I hate cake."

"What! How can you hate cake? Didn't you have cake at your birthday party?" "No- well yes, but it was cheese cake. I hate normal cake." "Fine, weirdo, who doesn't like cake?" He mumbled as he walked out causing me to giggle.

"Well let's go to the store, we can get lots of treats and-" "where's my dad? And the rest of All Time Low?" "Halo that was rude, and to answer your question they said they had an important issue to take care of." I shrugged.
