tangled in the great escape. (pierce the veil)

chapter 12

jaime pov

we were all sitting the couch watching vic pace back and forth mumbling things under his breath that none of us could understand. I hope iris comes home soon cause vic looks pissed. vic stopped and looked out the big bay window facing the street when he saw iris walking up the driveway.

vic walked to the front door and waited for her to come in while the rest of us stayed in the door way. when iris came in, all Hell broke loose. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. all of the words that came out of vics mouth didn't even sound like vic. what happened to the vic that was so concerned about iris? and now he's practically screaming at her? its like he was two different people around us and iris. iris ran past us and up to her room looking horrible. I couldn't blame her for leaving I mean she was stuck on a tiny bus for a month.

"vic what is wrong with you?! what happened to the vic that was so concerned about iris' health and feeling happy again?! this isn't going to help her!" I yelled

"I dont need this shit from her or you guys or anyone alright?! so just fuck off and leave me the Hell alone! I'm going out"

"oh no tour not you bastard!" mike said while pining vic up against the door while me and tony and I ran upstairs to check on iris.

"the doors locked" tony said with a worried look on his face.

"iris! iris can you hear me? please open the door" I said as calmly as I could. downstairs we could hear vic and mike yelling then I heard something that stuck out most.

vic voice saying "you know what? fuck you. fuck you, fuck tony, fuck jaime, and fuck iris alright. I don't need this shit anymore. I'm fucking leaving" then the door slammed and I could hear his car driving away. I looked back to the door to see tony picking the lock and then the door opened.

"where'd you learn how to do that?"

"I have ways" he replied back. we opened the door and I saw iris passed out on the floor with some broken glass from a picture surrounding her. I could tell that she'd been crying because her eyes were all puffy and red. I hope she didn't hear anything vic said. I picked her up and held her close to my chest. I looked up to see mike and tony standing in the doorway looking around her room wondering what happened.

tony picked up a broken picture frame. the picture was of iris and vic a couple of years ago.

"I can't believe this" tony said "why would vic hurt her even more? it doesn't make any sense"

"I know it's horrible. none of this should have happened" I said while looking up at mike. he looked like he could cry.

"here why don't you watch her while we clean up the glass." I said while handing iris to mike. he nodded his head and left to his room with iris in his hands.

I took iris to my room and layed her down on the bed while I sat next to her. iris didn't need this, especially from her dad. if vic kept this up I was leaving and I was taking iris with me. we could go stay with alysha (in this she's gonna live in san Diego not La) jaime and tony had their girlfriends that they could stay with. maybe vic needed some isolation from people like this so he realizes that he's hurting people. he gets one more chance. and if he blows it, me and iris were leaving. we all were.

I left the house practically in tears. what is wrong with me? why did I blow up like that? over something so stupid? me and mike got into it big time. him and the rest of the guys including iris probably hated me. but why wouldn't they? I didn't know where I was going but I somehow ended up at the bar getting wasted. I don't remember much but the last thing I remembered was a girl staring at me from across the bar.

next morning

mike pov

I woke up early the next morning remembering the events from the night before. I talked to jaime and tony about giving vic one more chance and if he blew it we were leaving. they both agreed with me and said they could stay with their girlfriends for a while.

I waked downstairs to find two naked people on the couch, one being vic and the either being a slut I'm guessing.

"WHAT THE HELL VICTOR!!!" I yelled making him fall off the couch and me seeing more of my brother than I ever wanted to.

thats gonna cause nightmares

"what the hell man?" he said all confused. when the girl on the couch woke up and obviously saw herself intruding.

"I'm gonna go change and then umm leave" she said while wrapping herself up in a blanket, grabbing her clothes and heading into the bathroom while vic grabbed a blanket and wrapping around his waste. the girl left the bathroom and pretty much ran out of the door.

"so after putting your daughter though Hell last night you decide to get drunk and bang some random chick?"

"I'm sorry I didn't know what I was doing I was drunk!"

"obviously. well your gonna have some time to think about your life for a while"

"w-what?"

"we're leaving. I'm taking iris with me and were staying with alysha and tony and jaime ate staying with their girlfriend's until you decide to be a dad again got it? I gave you another chance and too blew it man" I said. he looked like he'd just been shot.

"n-no no no no no mike no! no you can't take my daughter from me like that! ill sober up I promise! I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry! please don't take her! I need to know she's ok!" he said while collapsing to the floor by my feet. I felt like Jesus.

"well then you shouldn't have hurt her in the first place" I said while walking up the stairs ignoring his protests not to. I got into my room and could hear vic screaming/crying  and the sound of glass breaking. but what I was doing would help both him and iris. it was for the best.

"iris wake up sweetie" I said while shaking her a little. she woke up and looked at me.

"iris pack your things"
