Oblivion

Private Fears

Chapter 11: Jaime

"Come on Vic we have to go get Oli up before the flight leaves!"

"I'm coming ya fucker." He exclaims while rushing out of his room still brushing his hair.

"Jesus you're like a girl!"

"Wait I forgot to put on shoes!" Vic rushes back into his hotel room. After a couple minutes I hear my name. Sighing, I walk in and find six pairs of shoes laid out on the bed.

"Jaime which ones do you think match?"

"VIC ALL YOUR SHOES ARE FUCKING BLACK. PICK ONE." I yell while walking out, heading towards Oli's room.

"Jaime wait up!"

------

We finally reach Oliver's room. It's on the opposite side of the hotel so it took us a couple minutes to get there. Vic is situated with his clothes and everything. Just about to knock on the door, a shirtless Mike opens it. Immediately turning red, he gasps, as does Vic. Flabbergasted I wonder what's going on. Mike got drunk and was hanging out with Oli, no big deal right?

"Uh. Hey guys." Mike manages to stammer out.

"Uh hey, Jaime, we'll meet up with you later okay? Mike and I have to talk. Go make sure everyone else is up." Vic says while staring expressionless at Mike.

"Uh okay, I'll meet up with you guys later?"

Without a reply Vic grabs Mikes hand and drags him away. What the fucking hell is going on?!

------

Everyones up and ready to go to the airport I dropped in on every band and they're all ready to go. I slowly and quietly walk back to my room. I hear yelling and something breaking in Vic's room. Running in to see what's going on. Mike is crying sitting on the bed and Vic is pissed. Apparently he had just thrown the lamp from his bedside at the wall. I pause momentarily to take in the scene. Shouldn't it be the other way around? Vic is the sweet, innocent one and Mike is the tough, manly one. Something about the atmosphere is wrong... I clear my throat so they notice I walked in.

"Go get Tony." Vic commands, which causes Mike to leap into another fit of tears. I walk out and across the hall to Tony's room. What the fuck is going on?

------

With our band gathered in Vic's room, and less tension in the air, the meeting is started. Vic is the first one to speak up.

"So uh, Mike, tell them what happened and why all of this stuff is going on."

"Thanks mom, I will. So guys I'm Bi alright? I like dick just as much as I like pussy. Big whoop. I slept with Oli. We were really drunk and I honestly don't know if he feels the same but he seemed more sober than I was. Vic is pissed because he's scared if things get weird we're going to have to leave the tour. I don't want this going public until I'm more comfortable with it. The only people who know are the guys in this room, Oli obviously, and Jack-"

"JACK BARAKAT?!" Tony interrupts.

"Yes, Tony. Jack fuckin Barakat." Mike glares at him, obviously annoyed. "As I was saying. Not many people know and we don't want the word getting out. So keep things on the down low until I talk to Oli about what happened okay? I just wanted to tell you guys because we're family. You guys are my brothers just as much as Vic, and we felt the need to tell you..." He trails off.

I don't even know what to say. I'm speechless. I would have never guessed with that tough guy front he put up.

"I'm glad you can trust us with this Mike, and no matter what happens I want you to know you have our support. Isn't that right Tony?"

"Uh yeah of course." Tony manages to stutter, uncomfortable as can be. He's probably just as surprised as me.

"Welp. Get the rest of your shit packed. Our flight leaves soon and I don't want to miss it. I need to talk to Mike, I'm kicking you fuckers out. Love ya, we'll drink the rest of our bottles on the way to the airport alright?" Vic manages to get out while opening the door.

"It's only 10AM and it's already been a hell of a morning..." He mutters while I walk by.

So uh. Good, bad? I didn't really know how I wanted this chapter to go. I love how it turned out. I've been busy but I promise to keep the weekly updates coming. Comment what you think and if you see any grammar errors. Thanks guys. 😬
