I picked alex up with my arm around his shoulder and both his arms around my abdomen. We walked over to his car, i told him to let me drive because he was emotionally unstable. While were driving i kept feeling Alex's eyes burn a whole into the side of my head.
I slowly pressed down on the brake making a stop at the red light and turned alex.
We made eye contact...i think he was trying to 'read' my emotions but like i said i dont have any.
"Why are you taking this so easily?"
He finally asked, well im just happy i was smart enough to think of all of all the possible questions anybody could ask and thought of convincing amswers.
"Alex i already cried my heart out, i saw his body hanging there...i just want to forget what i saw but knowing it'll never happen" i let out a fake sob. And begin crying fully, damn i should be an actor instead of being in a band.
Alex started to tear up and looked away, we were close to vics house now. We drived the rest of the way quiet except for the sobs alex would give here and there. I knew he wanted to ask more questions but the way i sat that lie up i knew he would think it was subject i wasnt ready to talk about, which gave me some time.
We pulled up in front of vics and mikes apartment..i knocked on the door, alex still giving quiet sobs..geez will he ever shutup?
After one more set of knocks, we were greeted by Vic smiling and looking at me.
"Hey guys what-" he stopped and his smile slowly disappeared he looked over at alex whos eyes were red and puffy, still giving dry quiet sobs.
"Come in" he said as he turned and walked in the house turning the corner and dispearing, leaving the front door open. We walked in the house, i turned and locked the door behind us...we walked into the dinning room and sat at the table , i looked over at the clock; it read 12:02.
Vic came back with 3 cups on a tray handing me and alex one and sat his on the table. He sat the tray down and looked over at us. This was going to be a long night.
"What happen?"
Alex bursted out with tears like he was trying not to remember what just happen. O-but me i wanted to relive it, the power that rushed through my veins felt like heaven, making my master proud of me, jacks face when i cut his index finger off? Oh lord it was beautiful master piece created by the artist Tony Perry.
My lies that escaped through my mouth going through someone's ears to their brain processing what was said and their stupid minds believing me...Ha! I have to do that soon.
Vic looked at me and said "wheres jack?"
I looked down at my cup and shooked my head..."they got him-" i looked up at him making eye contact.
"They hung him by knives on the fence"
Vics eye widen and shook his head saying "no I dont want to know anymore...alex...what are you gonna do about the band? We're at warped tour"
"Im...im...just going to have to end it vic...i cant..i cant do this with out Jack..he was the only thing keeping me alive"
"Shit...alex man, you can stay here come on ill take you to the guest room. Turtle you can sleep on the couch okay."
I nodded.
