Chapter 3

Mike’s POV

          It’d been a few days since he’d left Chester alone at night that one day. He was getting loaded down with work. He loved what he did. He smiled slightly as he started singing the tune to their newest song. He was enjoying this way too much. He grinned as he glanced down at the folder in his hand with the words ‘Fort Minor’ written on the top. He knew Chester was upset about him staying away from him but the more he thought about the more he realized Chester was probably just jealous that he was doing stuff away from him. That he was working with another band. That’s why Chester was being so clingy. Mike rolled his eyes, sometimes that man could be annoying as hell. But he still loved him. He would always love Chester. He sighed and climbed out of his car. He headed into the studio where Ryan and Takbir ‘Tak’ were working on some new lyrics.

          “Miiiiiiiike,” Ryan said holding his hand up. Mike grinned and high-fived him. These guys were great.

          “Hey man what’s up?”

          “Just working. Oh and we need to talk.”

          Mike frowned and turned around. His two friends sat together. “About what?”

          “Your…….significant other.”

          Mike’s stare turned icy. He didn’t want them talking about Chester. Chester was his. He was special. “What about him?”

          “He needs to go.”

          Mike glared at them, “No.”

          “I don’t mean he has to literally leave you. I just mean he’s not going to interfere. We come first, not him.”

          Mike looked away. He didn’t want to agree to this. “There’s nothing wrong with him.”

          “Look….I get that you’re in a close relationship with him. If I had a boyfriend, I would be the same way,” Ryan said. Mike had found out quite quickly that Ryan was gay. “But this is something huge Mike. Push him out of your mind for the time that we have to work.”

          “I’m married to him. I can’t just leave him alone for this long.”

          “Look Mike, you have great potential but you’re holding back because of him. He’ll still love you when you’re done with this.”

          “Ryan, you know I can’t leave him like that.”

          “I told you he wouldn’t agree to it,” Tak said rolling his eyes. Mike glared at him. Ryan sighed and then turned back to him.

          “Alright Mike fine. Let’s play dirty. You forget about him or you don’t become part of this. You don’t forget about him and I’ll make him leave.”
