when the stars align (j.benn)

too early too childish

A grunt escapes my mouth as another round of knocks comes from my door pulling me out of my sleep.
I gently pry myself from the arms of the sleeping Miro and Tyler.
We all were getting tired trying to wait up for Jamie and I had started crying again; so, we all decided to curl up and just watch tv.
We couldn't all fit in bed so, we got extra supplies from housekeeping, who wasn't happy to be visiting our room at two forty in the morning, and made a makeshift bed on the floor.
I open the door groggily not caring who was about to see me in Jamie's oversized shirt and a pair of Nike pro shorts with my hair a mess.
"Sorry, Brie. I would have taken him to our room but he insisted that we come here."
My eyes focus hearing heathers voice. I look up seeing Jamie standing beside her with a happy but tired look on his face. I shake my head wrapping my arms around him.
  "I've missed ya, sweetie. Let's go inside and cuddle yeah?"
I hum in agreement before looking at Heather.
I hug her gently and take a deep breath.
  "Thank you for keeping me updated tonight. It really means a lot that you care enough to do that." I whisper to her before pulling away.
  "Get some sleep. We have to meet in the lobby in a couple hours." I tell her gently before ushering Jamie into the room.
  "Tyler and Miro are still here?" He grunts as he moves around the sleeping boys.
I nod my head before looking up at Jamie. My eyes trail over his features trying to see all the damage that was done in the fight.
  "I'm fine. I promise, babe."
My eyes look into his eyes and sigh softly.
He smiles and leans to kiss my head.
  "I just want to relax with you. Tomorrow well uh later today is going to be hectic and I really just want to be with you right now. This is going to be as much peace as I'm going to get."
I nod my head before tossing his phone to him.
  "Your phone has been blowing up. I texted Jordie just because he is your brother and needed to know why you weren't answering him. Didn't know you and Domi talked." I mumble falling on the bed.
  "Not often. I only talk to him when Jordie is being difficult or things of that nature." He murmurs as he climbs into bed a grunt falling from his lip.
  "Okay so what's wrong seriously. You can't just keep saying your fine but not telling me exactly what is wrong."
He looks at me before wrapping his arms around me as pulling he into his chest.
  "My nose isn't broke but bruised pretty badly. I have a pretty bad sprained ankle but they wrapped it up pretty well I guess. I don't really know they have me on pain meds so I don't feel if it's wrapped up well. I dislocated a few of my fingers but they are fine now."
I groan shaking my head.
  "You and your fighting spirit." I mutter into his chest before looking up at him.
  "I love my mom and everything but you would have been much better company. She was telling me how sorry she was and that she hopes I get back out there soon. I wanted her to yell at me for being stupid and fighting. You would have done that. You would have told me how stupid it was to go after such a big guy.  You would have told me how much I worried you and not have sugar coated it like my mom did."
My head bobs listening to his words. He was incredibly right. I would have done all those things.
  "Don't forget crying. I would have cried too. I'm terrible when people I care about are hurt and I can't do anything to help."
Jamie chuckles softly and rubs my back as he relaxes into the bed.
  "You need to stop crying about me. I'm fine and I was fine. A little loopy and out of it at times but I was fine. Mom said that she texted you updates every ten to fifteen minutes just so you wouldn't worry as much. You gotta get that under control, B. You're going to have a heart attack if you keep worrying like this." He teases with a snort.
I playfully slap his chest before looking up at him.
"The only time I will be overly worried and stressed is when you all play Nashville. Those boys are nasty when you take something they like. You all kinda stole me."
He chuckles quietly before breaking into a yawn.
"Goodnight, B."
"Goodnight, J"

"Turn the fucking thing off before I throw it out the window!"
I grunt and turn my alarm off. Apparently Tyler doesn't appreciate being woken up by *NSYNC.
"Shut up. Why so loud?"
I smile sleepily hearing Miro' sleepy voice. I press a gentle kiss to Jamie.
"Come on, sleeping beauty. I know you are up. Your poker face game is weak." I murmur before crawling out of bed.
"Chubbs is here? When did he get here?" Tyler asks and jumps on the head barely missing Jamie's leg.
  "Fuck Tyler. Just kill me why don't ya?" Jamie groans covering his face.
Tyler sits on the bed watching his best friend with a child like energy radiating off of him.
  "Oh my god you two." I mumble as I grab clothes to wear for the day.
  "You have to dress up?"
I glance back at Miro and nod my head slightly.
  "Yeah I do, unfortunately. Just because people don't want my autograph doesn't mean I can wear my sweatpants and tank top. I have to look professional just like you all have to." I explain before going to the bathroom to touch up my hair.
  "I want your autograph babe."
I roll my eyes playfully at Jamie looking at him as he limps into the bathroom.
  "Chubbs!" Tyler whines jumping on the bed like a toddler.
I always knew Tyler was a child but I didn't think he could be this childish.
  "Tyler I'm fine! I got in early this morning and I just wanted to have some quiet time with my girlfriend." Jamie huffs before brushing his teeth.
I giggle softly and brush my hair after I finish straightening it again. I hold the brush up to Jamie teasingly. He rinses his mouth out before leaning down. I laugh softly and brush his hair gently.
  "You two are disgusting."
I glance towards the bed where Tyler is. I stick my tongue out before patting Jamie's cheek.
  "Good to go, bub." I hum before grabbing my clothes and walking to the little room with the toilet.
I change into my jeans and pale pink shirt Smoothing the fabric out. I walk out grabbing my blazer and pulling it on my shoulders.
  "How do you walk in these things? They're like stilts." Tyler chuckles holding my heels up.
  "Shut up, Seguin! I'm short I have to wear stilts."
The boys fall into a fit of laughter while I slip on my shoes and secure the straps around my ankle.
I walk to the door hearing a few knocks.
I open it up smiling warmly at the sight of my brother, mom, Heather, and Jackie.
  "Hey come in. The boys are still trying to get ready." I laugh and let the group in the room.
  "Tyler no."
I turn around hearing Miro plead with Tyler.
  "Tyler Paul Seguin, if you don't want this heel up your ass put the pen down and back the fuck away." I threaten as I watch Tyler hold a pen to my James Charles eyeshadow pallet about to dig it into a eyeshadow.
This is why i can't have nice things.
Childish boys were hard to handle but childish boys that play hockey are even more of a nightmare to try and handle.
Ty places the pen down before backing slowly away from the pallet and makeup I had on the counter.
I give him a look before sighing heavily.
  "Get your shit together. You're not going to be late today."
He nods his head and walks to the toilet room to change looking like a puppy that was just scolded.
I shake my head packing my makeup having done the bare minimum today not wanting to fool with all the steps and products. I just didn't want to look like I was dead.
  "That's my sister." Ben snickers as he watches the scene unfold.
I had said similar things to Benji before so that wasn't a shock to him or my mom. I couldn't say the same for Jackie and Heather.
  "You scared my mom. Good goin, shortie." Jamie chuckles as he fixes his suit.
I roll my eyes at him and smack his hands away fixing his suit for him since he was struggling.
  "She did not, Jamie. I was just taken back."
I blush and apologize quickly before putting my stuff in its place in my carryon.
  "I'm use to you and your brother punching each other. Your sister never threatened you two like that. So it's just a bit shocking."
Ben and I chuckle because we too would throw punches at each other if we got too mad.
  "Oh she throws punches too. She does that to people she knows way too well."
   "Yeah P.K. got punched a lot. Idiot couldn't keep his mouth shut."
  "Oh so she's violent and is feisty."
I give Tyler a look and nod my head.
  "Yeah I am so keep running that mouth Seguin." I tease before putting my bags by the door.
  "Mom she's bullying me!" Tyler whines to Jackie as he ruffles his curly hair.
  "No she isn't. You're being an asshole."
I snicker and give Tyler a look.
  "Brianna be nice."
I look at my mom confused. This in turn caused Tyler to laugh along with Ben and Jamie.
  "He deserves it." Miro agrees looking at me with his innocent eye.
  "This is why you're my favorite, Miro." I teases patting his back.
  "Okay let's go. We have to be downstairs in thirty minute and with my luck we will get stuck in the elevator again."
I hold the door making sure I had everyone out and accounted for.
  "Hey I thought I was your favorite." Jamie says limping with his bags to the elevator.
  "Give me that." I snort taking his duffel bag off his shoulder and putting it on my carryon.
  "I guess you're my favorite."
  "I'm glad cause I kinda like you."
I give him a look before shrugging.
  "Aw you're getting soft on me, Chubbs."
I laugh as he pushes me into Ben.
  "God stop being adorable it makes me want to puke."
Jamie chuckles and shrugs his shoulders.
  "Your fault for having a sister that makes me act like this."
Ben and I look at each other before pouting.
  "Heather, your son is my favorite ever."
   "Yeah Jordie is pretty amazing isn't he?"
I bust out laughing at Tyler.
Well this elevator ride should be fun.
