[Vic] 

I checked my phone, it was nearly 2 am. I let out a groan and got out of my bunk, I couldn’t sleep. Because of him; Jaime Preciado. I walked over to the couch and sat down. I always knew I was gay, I’d never had a problem with that. I have also liked Jaime for the longest time, it’s never been a problem… until now. Lately though, Jaime’s been invading my every thought. I can’t even look at the boy without thinking abo- 

“Hey man, something wrong?” My thoughts were cut short by the sound of Tony’s voice. I always forget he’s a light sleeper.

 “Shit, sorry, did I wake you? It’s nothin’ man… don’t worry about it.”

“Vic, man, if it’s worrying you it is,” Tony took a seat on the couch, turning to face me. Truth was, yeah it was something, a rather big something, but I couldn’t tell him that. “But I understand if you don’t want to talk. I’m here if you do though.” Tony pulled me into a hug, then got up.

“Thanks Turtle,” I smiled as he walked towards the kitchen 

“Want anything? I’m having –“

“Waffles?” I guessed.

“Exactly.”

 “Fuck yeah, midnight waffles!” I jumped up, ignoring the fact that it was so late. 

 “Keep it down out there!” Jaime grumbled sleepily as he stuck his hand out of the bunk above me and just let it hang there. I couldn’t help but smile, I loved everything about that boy. I walked up to my bunk quietly, and quickly ripped away the curtain from Jaime’s. He put his arm over his eyes, blocking out the light and sighing.

 “Why dude, whyyy?” I grabbed a pillow from my bunk and hit him in the head with it. 

 I whispered, “Midnight fuckin’ waffles man. Comeee,” I grabbed his wrist and tugged at it, trying to drag him out of bed.

 “DID YOU SAY WAFFLES?” Mike rolled out of his bunk, looking very excited. Pierce the Veil certainly likes their waffles, if I do say so myself. 

 “Urghhhhh…” Jaime moaned, rolling over. “I guess if everyone else is up I have no choice. You guys would be too loud to let me sleep anyways.”

“You know we would!” Tony said with a laugh, “I guess I gotta make some more waffles, since Vic decided to wake everyone!”

[Jaime]

“Why dude, whyyy?” I complained, throwing a pillow at Vic. I took a look at him and could tell something was up, even though he was acting cheerful, I could tell there was something on his mind. It’s just one of those things you can tell about your best friend. But I wasn’t about to mention it, with the other boys all up.

Vic whispered to me “midnight fuckin’ waffles man. Comeee,” and tried to pull me out of bed. I love waffles just as much as the next guy, but why did my band feel the need to eat them at such odd hours? I like my sleep, thank you very much.

“DID YOU SAY WAFFLES?” Oh look, Mike’s awake. He’s probably the biggest waffle-lover of the group, no surprise there. If Vic didn’t wake him, the smell probably would have.

I let out a groan and rolled over, “I guess if everyone else is up I have no choice. You guys would be too loud to let me sleep anyways.” I reluctantly got up, stretching and letting out a moan, which earned a glance from Vic, who had made his way over to Tony.

“Who wants waffles?!” Vic shouted, looking way to happy for… what time was it anyways? I grabbed my phone to check the time, and it read 2:07 am. I unlocked my phone, and sent Vic a quick text, rather than drawing attention from the others.
hey man u alright? u look tired & worried :(
I saw Vic pull out his phone, and he smiled a bit when he read my message. I grabbed a waffle and started eating it.
yeah just couldnt sleep thx bby ;)
Vic texted back, and then typed out another message, to whom I couldn’t guess, at 2 in the morning. Partway through typing my message back to him, he got a text which caused him to smile a big smile.
well if u ever wanna talk im here
