The End Of All Things // B.U

The time I Met A Unicorn

The next day
I woke up and felt different. I went into my bathroom and looked in the mirror. Everything looked the same so I went downstairs. "You okay?" Brendon asked

"Yeah. I'm fine." I replied. "Just not excited to spend three weeks with a cast on."

"Hey someone's coming to visit you today. Plus you don't have to go to school for two days because we're going somewhere."

"Who and where?"

"Not telling."

"Ugh fine."

"Okay. Wanna go to the studio?"

"Sure."

"Hey guys." Brendon said as he helped me out of the car. Pete and Patrick were outside with their kids.

"Hey. Ava this is Bronx. Bronx this is Ava." Pete introduced.

"And this is Declan." Patrick added.

"Why does everyone have so cute babies and children?" I whispered to Brendon.

"Famous genes or in Pete's case Bronx's moms genes." He replied.

"Hey!" Pete exclaimed hitting Brendon's arm.

"Hey don't hit my father figure." I warned.

"What you gonna do about it?"

"Nothing. I just don't wanna witness a fight and plus kids."

"Yeah not in front of the kids." Patrick added.

"Anyway Ava. We gotta practice before tomorrow." Brendon said.

"He won't tell me where we're going." I whined.

"Don't ask me. I don't know." Pete replied.

"Me neither. Sorry kiddo. Pete I'm gonna go. Bye Ava." Patrick mentioned.

"Bye Patrick." I said hugging him. "See you Pete." I followed Brendon inside and to one of practice rooms.

Dan, Nicole and Kenny were already in there and practicing or tuning their instruments. "Hey Ava." Nicole said tuning her bass.

"Hey Nicole." I replied.

"Ava. What happened?" Kenny asked pointing at my leg.

"Ask him. I blacked out."

"Brendon. What happened?"

"Juliet happened." He mentioned. "Let's just not talk about it. It's been dealt with."

"Okay." Kenny added. I sat on the floor opposite where they were practicing and watched them practice.

"Guys we should probably head home and pack. Plus Ava we have at wake up early to get the flight and then you have your visitors when we get home." Brendon said putting his stuff away.

"Okay. Bye guys." I added getting up. "See you later." We got in the car and went home. I got changed into comfier clothes and sat on the floor in my room. Brendon helped me pack and we got it done quite quickly. "I'm gonna play bass for a bit."

"Okay. Have fun." He kissed my forehead and went downstairs.

I played a few songs on the bass then the doorbell rang. I just ignored it and carried on playing Give 'Em Hell Kid. There was a knock on my door so I stopped playing. "Come in." Brendon opened the door and walked in with Mikey Way behind him. I sat there in awe.

"Ava this is Mikey, but judging by your face you already know that."

"Hey." Mikey said.

"Hi." I replied quietly.

"Are you nervous?"

"A little."

"Ava. He's human. It's not like he's an alien." Brendon reminded.

"No he's not. He's a unicorn." I laughed.

"Sh. No ones supposed to know. Anyway. Were you playing Give 'Em Hell Kid?" Mikey asked.

"Yeah."

"Can you play it again?"

"Sure." I played it all the way through and Mikey nodded with his famous 'poker face'.

"That was pretty good." I smiled and he laughed. "I can't. That was awesome!"

"Thanks. That's actually my favourite song at the moment."

"Okay. I just came round to say hi. I gotta get home to Rowan. Happy late birthday." He handed me a bag that I didn't even notice he had. "From me, Gee, Frank and Ray." I opened it and it had The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys, a sketchbook, some watercolours and a small box at the bottom which I didn't open. "Jake told us you liked art so I thought watercolours."

"Thanks Mikey. Tell the guys I said thanks."

"I'll see you soon."

"See you." We hugged and he said goodbye then he went home.

After an hour of playing, I packed up my bass and went downstairs and sat next to Brendon on the couch.

"Hey kiddo." He said putting his arm around me.

"When will you tell me where we're going?" I asked.

"Tomorrow morning."

"Ugh."

"It's 9. You should probably get to sleep. We have to wake up at 4."

"Okay. Can you email my school and tell them to send me school work? I have three months of school left then I graduate from junior high."

"Really? Oh yeah your 14. Okay. I'll do that tomorrow. I'm gonna go to bed too." He stood up and picked me up. I grabbed my crutches and he carried me upstairs. He put me in my bed and I went to sleep.

The next day
I woke up and I could hear Brendons alarm. It kept going off so I decided to get up. I got ready for the day then went into his room. He was still sleeping and looked pretty peaceful. "Brendon." I whispered. He groaned and moved a bit. "Brendon." Still nothing. "Brendon get the fuck up!" He opened his eyes and glared at me.

"Ava. It's 4am." He replied.

"We have a flight at 6."

"Oh shit yeah." He got up and started getting ready. I couldn't really help so I just sat on the couch.

A few minutes later Brendon came downstairs with both of our luggage's and backpacks. He loaded them into the car and we both got in.

"Will you tell me where we're going now?" I asked.

"New York." He replied.

"Wait. Really! Why?"

"To see Kayla and Jake and we're all going to see Kinky Boots tonight."

"Thanks Dad!"

"You're welcome princess." I laughed and we pulled into the airport parking lot. "Come on. Let's get breakfast and a wheelchair."

It was 3pm (New York time) when we landed in NYC. We got to the hotel and picked out an outfit for tonight. "You ready to leave?" Brendon asked.

"Yeah." I replied. I finished putting my stuff in my bag then we got a taxi to Mikes apartment. "Do they know?"

"Nope. It's a surprise."

"Okay."

When we arrived at the apartment Brendon knocked on the door and Mike answered. "Hey guys." He whispered opening the door wider so we could come in. "They're on the couch." I crutched over to the couch and stood behind them.

"So. What you watching?" I asked. They both turned to look at me and jumped up.

"Ava!" They both ran round and hugged me. When Kayla let go Jack hugged me on his own.

"I missed you so much." Jack said squeezing me. He let go and I crutched over to the couch. "Wait. What happened?"

"Juliet happened." I replied.

"What happened?"
