"HAPPY PRIDE MONTH BITCHES!!"

Mitch came barging into the room Scott close behind, both of them bearing a pride flag. Since it was June. It meant that it was pride month and Schomiche were... being Schomiche and honestly... the entire crew and band were not looking forward to the mass of pride and gay jokes that was about to come their way.

"You too, guys... You too."

Everyone was invited to their house for a pride party, with the help of Kirstie's delicious pride treats. Everyone was in their living room chilling, talking and having a great time, Kevin was sat talking to Scott since he wasn't one to blame one person for the fault of everyone. Mitch and Kirstie were talking and the rest of the crew were talking and eating the sweet treats that Kirstie had made. It had been 30 minutes since all of them arrived before the doorbell went off again.

"I GOT IT!"

Mitch went to the door to answer it, knowing who it was, he opened the door to be met with his tour manager, her husband and her brother. Esther, Darrien and Avi. Scott thought it would be a good idea to try and get him to feel comfortable around the rest of them again after the trauma he went through.

"Hey, guys!"

"Hi, Mitchie!"

Mitch looked towards Avi, who was looking at the ground in his own daydream mode.

"Avi?"

His head snapped up as if he was caught doing something wrong.

"Hey, Av."

He just smiled at him.

"Hey, Mitch."

"Hey, Darrien. Come in, you guys are the last ones to arrive so now the party can actually start."

The three walked in, Mitch noticed that Avi had his hands shoved deep in his pockets and his head was hanging really low. He looked highly depressed but that was honestly highly expected after his experiences. He looked like he was hiding something from all of them though. It was a new look in his eyes. He was hiding something new.

They entered the house only for Avi to go in a corner on his phone away from the others. Esther and Darrien went over to Kirstie and Mitch followed.

"He's sat in the corner. He's not talking to anyone..."

"You can't blame him though... i wouldn't talk to anyone either... His mental state is just... not where it should be right now... just give him some time."

He was hiding something... something big... He had his hands in his pockets for a reason. That reason being--

Ok. Remember the bracelet he mentioned in the first chapter? How he didn't want anyone to find it? Lemme help you out here.

I was just glad that she didn't find that bracelet. Wait... Shit... now I have to explain that, too don't I? Too bad! I ain't doing that. I don't think I would know what to do if someone found out about it. Honestly, I would probably cry if anyone knew about its existence, it would kill me.

Well, that was what he was wearing. His hands were shaking but no one noticed because they were shoved into his pockets but the cloth was shaking. That would be suspicious. Everyone was looking in a certain direction. Avi looked over at Mitch jumping around like an excited child while everyone looked at him as he was explaining something.
