Fighting For you| H20Vanoss

Chapter 4: Birthday

It was a few days after the incident and Delirious woke up to his Mom bursting in his room singing happy birthday. Delirious smiled and sat up while covering his face until he grabbed his mask from his nightstand and put it on, his Mom pulled her hands out from behind her back and revealed a small box, she held it out and Delirious opened it confused and saw that there was a car key. His eyes went wide and he jumped out of bed.

"Happy 18th birthday, Delirious." Delirious raced downstairs and out the door in only his sleep shorts. In the driveway was a less-armored jeep with a giant red bow on the top, he slapped his hands over his mouth. "Don't thank me, thank Michael."

Michael appeared from the driver's side of the jeep and Delirious, surprisingly, ran over and hugged him. "Why don't you take it for a spin? Your mother and I will get the rest of your gifts and then when you come back, we can decide what to do for the day?" Delirious nodded and looked at his Mom in the doorway who just nodded with a smile plastered on her face.

Delirious jumped in and put the key in the ignition, he rolled down all the windows and connected his phone what was in his hand in to the Bluetooth. He was about to put his phone in the passenger seat but there was a flat box with his name on it, he slowly grabbed it and opened it.

There was a gay pride flag in it with a note.

"I'll always be here for you."
                       -Michale

Delirious wiped his eyes and slid it under the seat, he knew exactly where he was going.

He drove down the street and stopped in front of Wildcat's house since his was the closest. He honked the horn a few times and climbed it to stand on the top, Wildcat came out looking grumpy but his eyes went from surprise to happiness when he saw Delirious. "Wanna go out for a spin?" Delirious shouted.

Wildcat disappeared into the house and emerged clothed. "Fuck yeah!" He got in the passenger's seat but moved Delirious' phone first. Delirious climbed back in.

"Lead the way to Terroriser's house and then to Nogla's."

"Nogla and Terroriser live in the same apartment complex."

"Oh, okay. Lead the way!"

Delirious pulled into the apartment parking lot and Wildcat went to grab the two who climbed into the back while saying how much they love Delirious' "slick ride".

Marcel was in shock and screaming when he got in too. Just time for Vanoss.

Delirious disconnected his phone and Wildcat connected his, putting Vanoss in.

"Hello?" He sounded tired like he just woke up.

"Yo! Go outside! We're coming to get you!"

"Who?"

"Just, go outside with clothes on. Okay?"

"Yeah, okay, whatever." He hung up.

They played "I mean it" by G-Eazy on their way to Vanoss' house, singing along like teenage girls with their favorite artist.

Vanoss' eyes went wide when Delirious pulled up with the boys, he was crammed in the back. "Happy Birthday, Delirious. But, what the hell? You're only 18?"

"The cops don't know that," Marcel laughed. They all laughed at his comment and they drove around, legally, before going back to Delirious' house.

"Oh, hey, boys." Delirious' Mom said when they followed in, they all either hugged her or shook her hand when they trailed in. Michael stood up when the boys walked in.

"Hey, Delirious, is this your Dad?" Nogla asked, Terroriser elbowed him in the ribs and made him double over in pain.

"No, this is Michael, my Mom's boyfriend. He bought me my new car." Delirious smiled at Michael and he smiled back.

"Oh, nice to meet ye. I'm Nogla."

"Tyler."

"Vanoss."

"Terroriser."

"Marcel!"

"Nice to meet you boys, will you be joining us for our day?" Michale asked them.

"If it's cool with Delirious and his Mom." Vanoss spoke for the group.

"Yeah, it's fine with me. Delirious?" Everyone looked at Delirious.

"Is that a question? I wouldn't rather spend my birthday with anybody else! Let me go get changed, Vanoss, can you help me? I think one of my drawers are stuck." Vanoss nodded and followed Delirious up the stairs.

Delirious shut the door and locked it before turning to Vanoss, "what the hell?" Delirious hissed.

"What?"

"What the hell do you mean "what"? You didn't answer my texts after you just jumped on me, I wanted to ask you why you did it."

He just crossed his arms and sighed, moving his hands up to rub his temples. "I don't know. You said you thought you were gay." He whispered it as if he were afraid someone would hear them. "So, I thought it was a good idea."

Delirious' heart deflated, he really didn't love him?

"And...I think I'm in love with you..." he mumbled. Delirious' heart inflated back up.

"R-really?"

"Yes, fuckhead! Since I saw your adorable dumbass!" He smiled.

Delirious didn't hesitated, he connected his lips with Vannos' and he didn't hesitate to kiss back. They pulled away, "I love you." Delirious whispered.

"I love you too."

They two came downstairs and Delirious was clothed, they decided to keep their relationship low profile and Michael looked up from his cup of coffee at Delirious with a small side smirk.

Everyone agreed to go to the roller rink and watching Tyler and Nogla trying to hold each other up was like watching two dogs trying to eat the peanut butter out if each other's mouths on ice. Marcel and Terrorised were exceptionally good at it and Delirious and Vanoss decided to hang out with all of them.

They were in the middle of what COD was the best when Delirious' Mom wobbled up to them, "come on, boys. We're heading to "Thai"in knots." Delirious lit up, his favorite restaurant in the whole entire fucking world.

He looked at his "checklist" that he made up in his head randomly.

-Boyfriend. Check.
-Car. Check.
-Great friends. Check.
