Part 2 : Back at the flat

"I'll be there, till the end when your heart stops beating the old pain repeating. I'll be there for you, and I'll love you." -Until the moon strikes fire, Austin Corini

Exhausted, battle ready and full of adrenaline, the Road Trip boys collapsed through the door of the flat. They'd done the last two of the rescheduled dates for their tour, and arrived back from Birmingham at about midnight, having had little sleep the night before. 

Naturally, there was the excitement from meeting all the Roadies, singing their own songs and meeting up with their support acts as well. But that didn't stop them being shattered. Andy could barley speak, having sung so much over the past few days, and Brooklyn's back was causing him trouble again. Jack was barley awake and Rye had lost some of his energy, which he always seemed to have enough of.

Proud, Mikey looked around the room at his band mates as they came back into the flat after the end of the start of a crazy year for them. He was proud of them for the crazy things they'd done, and proud that they were all still hanging on for the roadies, despite being ill and tired. 

Andy coughed loudly a few times, as Jack collapsed onto his bunk, his bag still on his back. Rye helped Brooklyn onto the sofa, as his back was causing him pain again. Mikey thought for a few moments, and then decided it was the right time to speak.

"We've been through so much already, and I want to thank all of you for everything you've done to make us happen, I hope the rest of this year only gets better." He said, knowing someone needed to speak. 

"Get some sleep all of you," Blair yelled through from the other room, "Tidying can wait until tomorrow." Mikey knew he was right, so him and Jack helped Brooklyn onto the bunk, and then both Jack and Brook were passed out. 

About five minutes later, and Mikey, Rye and Andy were all slipping into sleep as well, for one night, the craziness didn't reign, but the genuine exhaustion did, and they were all passed out before any of them had time to think about doing crazy things.
