Hold Me In The Rain

The Fight

While upstairs drying off Bryan keeps sneaking glances at you.

"May I help you Mr. Williams?" You joke.
"Is that an offer?" He raises an eyebrow and grins.
"No." You laugh.
"How mean of you." He rolls his eyes and laughs.

Bryan's POV
"Where's (your name)?" Chris asks me as I walk into his room.
"Oh she wanted to chill and watch some Netflix."
He raises and eye brow at me. "Mm".
"Bro what?" I respond laughing.
"Nothing. She just seems to be- distant last night and today." He admits.
I take a deep breath before starting to explain the events.
"-but we're good now. And, I told her I love her today." I end the spiel with a smile.
"Wait what?" Chris looks shocked at my last remark.
"Yeah." I smile bigger.
He waits a moment before speaking again. "I mean, I'm happy for you. But how'd she take it? Especially after-"
"She was questioning at first but she did said back." I cut him off.
"Good." He says. "I'm happy for you." Smiling.
"Thanks. So uhh, what are we doing today?"

Tristan knocks on the door and walks into the bedroom.
"Hey." He smiles.
"Hey T." You smile back.
"Whatcha doing?" He sways back and forth on his feet.
"Nothing." You laugh.
He looks at the TV and a huge smile comes across his face.
"You're watching Riverdale?! Can I watch with you?"
"Yeah. Of course." You laugh and scoot from the middle of the bed making room for him to sit.
"Where are you?" He asks.
"I restarted season 3. So I think I'm on the fourth episode." You say.
"Oh great!" He exclaims moseying into Bryan's bed with you.

The episode comes to an end was Tristan turns his head to you.
"Are you okay?" He asks.
"Yeah. I'm fine." You smile at him.
"You just seemed, down yesterday and we didn't see much of you. I figured you would have come down to watch the livestream." He says.
"Oh, I was- I was just really tired." You say.
"I'm sorry but I don't believe you. Bryan was sad as fuck yesterday too. Are you guys okay?"
"Yes Tristan. We're fine." You laugh. "We just- something happened yesterday and- we're fine." You laugh.
He reaches over and lays his hand on your shoulder but lets it hit a little too hard and you let out a wince in pain.
"What the-" he says.
You reach for him as he jumps off the bed exposing the purple lines on your wrists.
"What the fuck?!" He yells.
"Tristan please. Just- just be quiet." You plead with the boy.

Bryan comes running into the room. "What's going-"
He's caught off guard by Tristan pushing him into the door.
"What the hell did you do to her?!" He yells.
"I didn't do-" He pauses and looks at you.
"Wait, do you think I- What did you tell him?" He looks from you to Tristan back to you.
"Bryan I didn't tell him-"
"She didn't tell me anything! I saw the marks Bryan! I thought you were better than that!" The boys screaming match has brought attention to everybody else in the house.
"What is going on in here?" Tyler questions as he walks up to the room.
"Why does she have bruises Bryan?! Why?!" Tristan's practically screaming at this point.
"Tristan stop! Please!" You beg him with tears in your eyes.
Bryan wraps his hand his Tristan's shirt and pins him against the wall. "You don't know what the hell your talking about." Bryan's eyes go dark.

"Woah woah! Bryan! Bryan! Stop!" Dayne says grabbing Bryan's shoulder as soon as he sees the boys chest to chest.

"Tristan leave it alone. Please!" You yell.
Tristan looks from you to Bryan. Tyler, Chris, and Darius are standing outside of the room watching everything unfold.
Darius comes in a grabs Tristan's shoulder. "Come on." He says pulling Tristan out of the room.
Tyler and Chris quickly follow behind as Tristan takes off down the stairs.
You hear the bell for the door go off and know they've left the house.

"What the hell?!" Dayne says.
Bryan's eyes are still cold and staring right into you. "What did you tell him?" He says.
"I didn't say anything Bryan. We were-"
"And what was he even doing in here?!" He exclaims.
"Would you please listen to me?!" You yell.
"Hear her out B." Dayne says still trying to calm him down.
"We we're watching Riverdale, that's it. He asked me if I was okay because we both seemed down yesterday. I told him everything was fine and he grabbed my shoulder. It hurt. And when he jumped off the bed the sleeves of the hoodie rose up enough for him to see-"
"Dammit!" Bryan's yells.
"I told him not to worry about it, everything was fine! I swear."
"He thinks- he- fuck!" He yells ripping his hands from his hair.
"Wait so what happened?" Dayne laughs.
Bryan give Dayne a look while you twiddle your thumbs.
"Ohhhh!" Dayne's eyes go big and he laughs. "Didn't want to know that." He laughs.

"I have to go find him." Bryan's says running out of the room.

After a long agonizing silence Dayne finally says something.
"So was it good?"
You give Dayne a "did you really?" look.
"Sorry!" He laughs.
You push his shoulder, "yes, actually it was thank you for you asking." You roll your eyes and laugh.
"Is that why-"
"Yup."
"Okay. Got it. Makes sense."
Dayne knew exactly what happened without you having to say a single word describing it.

You both sit and wait for Bryan to come back. After 20 minutes you decide to start the next episode and Dayne takes Tristan's spot on the bed.
