Bromance In The band

Chapter 9

Bens pov

George has decided to be weird these last couple of days. As soon as me and mike would get close and cuddle up or something, he would call one of us into another room to do a chore or something. It's actually pissing me off now. I mean what's wrong with me and mike being close? That's none of his business.

On the plus side, we have announced dates for our tour now and the fans are absolutely buzzing. It's so much fun to see their reactions when we announce a tour! They're really the best fans we could ask for, so supportive of anything we do.

I hear my favourite song playing out of nowhere and I look around to see Michael walking in with it playing on his iPod with him singing away. "You light,the skies,up above me"

I listened to his voice singing the lyrics I love so much, they sound so good coming out of his mouth.

"Yeah you and me we can ride on a star if you stay with me boy..."

Wait,boy? he actually just said boy! what is even going on right now, I'm having a proper melt down because he said boy instead of girl. Or, maybe he was singing a cover version. I don't know but I liked it.

Apparently he didn't know I was in the room until he turned around and saw me lying on the bed.

"Oh..hey!" he said with his cheeks going bright red as he realised that I heard him singing.

"Hey! nice singing." I say back to him with encouragement.

"Thanks" he replied."its my favourite song"

"No way! me too!" He smiles at me and nods at me and sits next to me and rests his hear on my shoulder.

"I also have another favourite song...wanna hear me play it?" he asks me in a dreamy tone.

"Erm,yeah okay" I reply as he rushes of to get his guitar. He sits down on the stool in front of them bed that I'm still sitting on. "Ready?" he asks. I give a gentle nod as he starts to strum away some chords.

"I found god, on the corner of first and amistad

Where the west, was all but won.

All alone, smoking his last cigarette,

I said where you been

He said ask anything.

Where were you? when everything was falling apart

All my days were spent by the telephone

Never in

When all I needed was a call

Never came

To the corner of first and amistad..." he sings and breathes in deeply before hitting the chorus.

"Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me

Lying on the floor

Surrounded, surrounded

Why'd you have to wait

Where were you , where were you

Just a little late

You found me, you found me." he slows down and plays a few last chords and looks up at me, with tears in his eyes.

"Ben..." he croaks before rushing over to me and hugging me so tight I could barely breathe. I didn't know what was going on, all I could do was comfort him. "Are...are you okay?" I whisper to him gently as I run my had through his hair gently and wrap my arm around his back. I feel him shake his head, so I lean back and pull him down onto the bed with me and cuddle up to him close so he would feel safe, and pulled the cover over us. I look him straight into the eyes. "Michael, what's wrong?" He looks at me with sad eyes and shakes his head. "Please mike! I don't want any secrets and I don't want you feeling sad! please tell me what's wrong." I beg him. That's all I can do. He just stares at me and bites his lip, still crying. I close my eyes and start to think. Think of what could be wrong, think of why he was upset but I couldn't think of anything. Maybe he was missing home. Probably it.

A sudden amount of warm breath hitting my face sent chills down my spine as I open my eyes for a split second and see michael's lips coming towards mine, tears still in his eyes. I close my eyes and lean in too.

The second I feel his lips on mine something inside me ticks. It's right. Everything is just perfect. His lips decide they want more than just a sweet kiss and that was fine with me, so we moved pretty much in sync with each other, getting closer and more desperate, apparently, as Michael grabs my hair and pulls on it, drawing back what was his attempt of a moan I guess. It was more of a whimper, but still it was enough to set me off. I bit his bottom lip and put my hand on his chest making him giggle and pull my hair more.

My face was covered in his tears and so was his and my mouth was wet with his saliva but it was perfect to me. Everything that had just happened was perfect, no other word to describe it. He pulls back and looks at me. I grin down at him to reassure him that it was okay for him to do that.

"Ben.."

"Yes Michael?"

"I...is...i mean...did you like that?" he finally stutters out. I look at him with a smile. "I did" I go to put my arm around him but he freezes.

"In what way? did you like it as in it was a kiss or as in it was a kiss from me?" I look at him with my head on the side. "I don't understand. Is there a difference" he sighs.

"I mean, what I need to know I guess...is-" he was cut off when blinding light burns out eyes as someone pulled off the covers. It was George.

"What the hell?!" he yells. " As if I didn't have enough problems with michael, don't tell me..ben! I thought better of you!" he yells pointing at both of us with a look of disgust.

"George what are you on about?!" I yell back as loud as I could. He gave me an evil smile as he looks at Michael who was terrified for some reason as he shook his head at George somewhat pleading him not so say something. "Please don't george" he whines.

"So...you haven't told Ben then have you? think I might have to sort out this little 'issue' myself." He smiles at me,ignoring michael's pleas. "He's gay" he spits and points to Michael. "And he's in love with you."

Everything goes silent for what feels like years.

"So ben, what do you think of that. Are you gonna join me on my belief that it's disgusting?" he laughs at Michael who is crying so bad. I can't say anything. I'm so shocked, not only at what George told me, but that George could be so nasty as to tell me something mike didn't want me to know. And that he could be so nasty! Michael looks at me with trembling lips and Looks at George. I still don't say anything I just sit there with my mouth wide open.

"M'sorry" mike says as he runs of into the other room cryin his eyes out.
