An Unexpected Journey (Pierce The Veil)

Adventure Time

*Muse's POV*

I curled up to Vic's side and opened my eyes. It's been a week. Mike has said nothing to me. A week of sleeping in bed with Vic. A week of mixed signals. A week of dirty looks from Mike. A week of snappy remarks from Juliet. A week of dealing with Cara, again. A week of Xavier constantly crying because he doesn't understand Mike's relationship. A week of me picking up the pieces of Xavier's heart. A week of Vic constantly being on the edge about Xavier and I. A week of me isolating myself emotionally. A week of hell.

"Muse." Vic said softly. "What?" I asked not bothering to look at him. "Let's find you a great house." Vic mumbled running his hand through my hair. "Can Xavier come?" I asked running my hand down Vic's chest. "He has to, he has to like the house too." Vic laughed. "Just making sure." I said softly getting up. "I'll go get Xavier ready." I mumbled getting up abruptly to go wake up Xavier. I walked upstairs to my room where Xavier was sleeping on a small bed in there. "Hey bubba, it's time to get up." I said running my hand over his forehead. "Why?" He sleepily mumbled. "You, Vic and I are going to have an adventure today." I smiled causing him to open an eye. "Will there be food?" He asked with one eye still open. "I love you so much." I said crying from laughter. Mike and Juliet stumbled in both clearly still half asleep starring at me. I couldn't stop laughing, Xavier even started laughing. We were sitting there, both had tears streaming down our faces laughing. "Mommy-it-hurts." Xavier said in between laughs holding his stomach. "Me-too." I cried out rolling over holding my stomach. "Did I miss something?" Mike finally said causing Xavier and I to instantly stop laughing. "Just Xavier being a cute munchin." I said softly sitting up still holding my stomach. "I got abs." Xavier said lifting up his shirt making Mike and I laugh. "I have them too." I said lifting my shirt up a little bit. I knew that I didn't have abs and that Xavier didn't have abs but a little fun wouldn't hurt. I told him that the pain you feel from laughing is abs forming so it became a little joke him and I have. "Sweet." He smiled jumping in my arms. "Let's get ready for the day yeah?" I asked standing up walking him to my closet. "Where you taking him?" Mike asked sitting on my bed frame. "Taking him on an adventure." I shrugged grabbing his clothes and laying them on his bed. "Yeah, okay." Mike said getting up blocking me from leaving the room. "You gonna move?" I asked crossing my arms. "Not until you talk to me." Mike grunted pushing me back a little. "Mike stop." I said trying to get passed him. "No we're going to talk." He said pushing me towards my bathroom. "Mike seriously stop." I said a bit louder. "Shut up I'm trying to sleep!" Juliet yelled making me roll my eyes. "Help." Xavier said running to me so I could button his shirt. "Can you move so I can atleast do this?" I said pointing to his shirt. Mike nodded and picked up Xavier and set him on the counter as I buttoned his shirt and pulled up the zipper of his pants. I grabbed Xavier's toothbrush and put toothpaste on it and began helping him. Xavier grabbed my toothbrush and gave it to me and smiled. He wasn't that much of a talker in the mornings. I brushed my teeth as Mike watched us patiently. Once Xavier and I were done I put our things away. "Go check on Vic." Mike said to Xavier taking him down from the counter. "Okay." He said quietly slowly walking out of the bathroom. "Why haven't you been saying anything to me?" Mike asked. "It's the other way around. Ever since Erin and I walked in on you in my bed all you've been doing is giving me dirty looks." I said turning to the mirror so I could do my hair. "You still could have said something." Mike said quietly looking down. "You're acting like a child." I groaned throwing my hair up in a messy bun. "I'm sorry." Mike said walking closer to me so I stepped back. "Your apology means nothing because I've heard that way to many times from you. If your sorry you better show it because hearing those words from your mouth means nothing." I said before swiftly walking away from him so I could leave. I slid down the hand rail and grabbed Vic's deodorant because I wasn't going back upstairs. "Where's your cologne?" I asked digging around in his bathroom. "Catch." Vic said throwing it to me. I sprayed myself and waited for Vic who came out in a beanie. "Looking spiffy." I said with a wink. "Thank you." Vic said wiggling his eyebrows. I smiled and looked to Xavier who was sitting on the couch patiently. "Such a handsome boy." I said to Vic. "So well mannered." Vic said causing Xavier to look at us. "I love him." I said making a kissy face making Xavier giggle. "Let's go bubs." I said opening the front door.

"Vic there's to many." I groaned flinging my head back in a dramatic manor. "You'll find the perfect one." Vic said putting his arm around me. "One more?" He said and I nodded looking at Xavier since he was picking out the houses. "This one." He said pointing to a two bedroom apartment. "It has two bathrooms." I said looking at all the details to pass time since we were in traffic. "Seems okay from what I'm reading. It's brand new too." Vic said as we were waiting in the relator.
"I love it." I smiled picking up Xavier looking around.

I sat on the floor in my room folding my clothes. All my clothes in suitcases and boxes. All the pictures laid out on my bed. Each photo causing a flashback. "You're really doing this." Mike said walking in the room, I can't call it mine no more. "You thought I would joke about this?" I said pulling a photo of Mike and I out of the frame and laid it on the bed. "You're not yourself anymore." He said standing over me. "You aren't yourself either." I mumbled pulling out more photos of Mike and I and putting the empty frames in boxes. "Why don't you love me anymore?" Mike said calmly running his finger down my spine giving me goosebumps. "I did and I tried to keep our love alive but it was clearly one sided." I mumbled swiftly folding the box and moving it towards the door. "How's Juliet's pregnancy going?" I asked putting all the empty hangers back in the closet. "Her mood swings are terrible." He said leaning against the wall. "Funny." I said grabbing my bag so I could pack my bathroom supplies. Mike grabbed my hand forcing me to drop my bag. I met his gaze to see he was crying, his tears being endless. "What have I don't to you.." He said so quietly yanking me into his embrace. The sound of him crying began to echo in my bathroom. "Now now." I mumbled putting my hand on his back. "Forgive me." Mike said pulling away crashing his lips to mine. I wanted to pull away with all the life force I had but the feeling of having his lips against mine again drove me insane. I felt the tears building in my eyes and I finally pushed him away and ran downstairs stumbling into Vic. "What the hell." Vic said looking down and his beer that was spilled all over the floor. "I'm sorry." I cried out collapsing into his embrace. "Muse what's wrong?!" Vic asked me carrying me into his room. "I can't. I still love him Vic. After all this time I still love him." I cried clinging to Vic's chest. "Take me to my new house." I pleaded and Vic nodded handing me one of his sweaters. The whole car ride was silent and the walk to my apartment was silent but I pulled Vic inside. "What is going through that head of yours." Vic said his eyes starting at my soul. "Kiss me." I breathed out. "Muse what?" Vic asked. "Kiss me Vic!" I exclaimed. Vic put his hands at the back of my head and slowly put his lips on mine. Our lips moving in sync. My hands went to the bottom of his shirt and pulled it off of him. Vic's hands roaming all around my body and Vic made sure our lips never broke contact unless it was for clothes to be pulled off. He pushed me on my bed and climbed on top of me his hand massaging my boobs causing me to moan a little. It's been over three years now since I've been touched like this and I was craving more. I slid my hand into his boxers and grabbed him making him groan. He ripped off my underwear and kissed down my neck. "Vic." I breathed out. He made his way down in between my legs making sure to pleasure me in everyway he could. His tongue being so gentle making the euphoric sensation send me over the edge. Once I came Vic stopped and looked at me, his eyes oh my I got lost in those eyes. No words were exchanged. We didn't have any condoms but we trusted each other to take the necessary actions for afterwards. Vic slowly entered me and I adjusted. Vic picked up the pace and I couldn't contain my moans and neither could Vic. The knot in my stomach was growing and Vic's thrusts were becoming harder but more sloppy. He collapsed on me and kissed my lips. "That was so overdue." I breathed out running my hand through Vic's hair. "Come here you." Vic said rolling over pulling me with him. Our bodies sweaty and our hair a mess. "You're so beautiful." Vic mumbled running his hand down my back. "I would never treat you the way that Mike does." Vic continued. "Vic.." I mumbled laying my head on his chest hearing his rapid heart beat. "Will you be my girlfriend?" Vic asked. "Please don't break me." I said pecking his lips. "I believe it's the other way around." Vic sighed.
