This was going to be a Kemmet story but one person wanted a Kieron and Emmett story and one didn't so I'll make it sound like it could be one but using Ste and Brendan.
Things in Steven Hay's life had changed from good to bad to worse it just a few years time and it was taking a serious toll on the young mans life, he used to be happy, used to be filled with joy for doing what he loved doing the most which was acting but things had changed and Steven couldn't deal with them.
Steven was home alone sitting on the couch tears streaming down his face looking at photo albums of happier times. With family and friends of his boyfriend that he was with for over six years. They wanted to buy a house together but something went wrong, Doug became jealous over his co-star his not forget about it straight handsome co-star Brendan Brady who he hadn't seen in over a year not since he moved to America an became a big fucking success. He missed Doug and Brendan all the time. Not a day went by that he didn't think about them. Steven missed Brendan more so now that he shaved his moustache off the last night of filming their soap opera together and he looked younger sexier without the moustache and it was weird since he only ever thought about Brendan has a friend and his lover on the show not Brendan the sexy actor that girls went gaga over.
Steven felt stupid he had said things to Brendan on his radio station he had only meant as a friendly thing since he missed him so much but Doug of course heard the radio show and took it as more then a friendly thing and by the time Steven had gone home from filming a scene on his show Doug's things were packed away in boxes and a note saying that he believed that he thought Steven had fallen in love with his
co-star. At first Steven thought it was a joke and laughed it off, but he realized it wasn't when the trucks came to take his belongings and he was out of his life forever.
Doug was just a stupid selfish good looking jerk but he couldn't help but still have feelings for him, how could he not they had been together for almost 7 years 7 long amazing filled with love years. Doug was his first everything, first boyfriend, first kiss, first and only man he slept with and now here he was alone in his flat tears staining his cheeks looking at the past and the best years of his life and now that 6 months had past by at times he still wanted him but knew it was for the better that they were separated.
One of the pictures that made him smile was the time at the soap opera award show the last one that Brendan was nominated for with him for the forbidden lovers awards, the most amazing thing happened, they won that night and Doug was so proud of him the three of them took a cute picture together holding their trophies and then the next picture was with Doug, Brendan, Jacqui; Brendan's girlfriend, and Steven having a laugh of a time. It felt like a life time ago but it was almost 2 years ago but felt more like 10.
The only thing that made Steven happy these past months and years was that his TV family was back in his life. Amy and Leah and Lucas, they brought him so much joy. Another person he missed deeply was Cheryl, she played Brendan's sister on the show and they were really brother and sister off the show as well and the writers made her leave the show once Brendan did, for a short time she had been in the country and had visited a few times which Steven cherished so much but then she decided to move back to Ireland to be with her family who she missed so much.
Suddenly Stevens phone rang and he closed the photo album and reached for his phone on the table and looked who it was calling. It was a blocked number so he didn't bother to answer the phone.
Steven reopened the photo album and cried some more. Times like these were so bad that he too wanted to quit the show but he was on the show for almost 10 years, his life was this show, the stupid writers made his character do stuff that he didn't feel comfortable with but they were the writers so he had to put up with it. Just like he had to deal with the way Brendan left the show, he hated it and sometimes cried over the way he left. Sometimes it got so bad he felt like the character who played his ex husband crying all the time over little things, but hey he couldn't help it he wasn't even 30 yet and he had so much heartache. He missed the good days he missed his ex- boyfriend like crazy he missed Brendan and Cheryl and good story lines that they all had together.
He was suppose to be getting ready for a script reading with the writers and producers and directors but he wasn't really into it, he felt like such a cry baby that day and it was due to the fact that, that day was 6 months to the day that he hasn't seen or heard from Doug and he just wanted to get drunk off of cheap bottles of red wine and fall asleep.
Suddenly the phone rang again and Steven closed the photo album and looked at who was calling him, this time it was one of the writers for the show, he picked up the phone and spoke to the person on e other end, the writer was calling to remind him that he had to go to the studio for a script reading in two hours. Steven said that he had remembered but thanked the person for calling anyway.
Steven got up from the couch and grabbed his three huge photo albums and put them in his closest and picked an outfit to wear for the reading of the script. He walked out of his room and took a shower. He finished crying in the shower and cleaned his face with some shower gel. He got out of the shower and wrapped up in a towel and went to his room and got dressed in a pair of light denim jeans and a gray jumper.
As he reached for his keys and his phone his phone began to ring, it was Amy. She was calling to make sure if Steven was alright for she remembered that he cried on her shoulder the day Doug left and remembered that it was 6 months that he was gone. Steven of course lied and told her everything was peachy didn't want her to think he was some stupid faggot. He made it seem like he was strong and couldn't wait to be at the studio going over the broads that the writers and come up with for new story lines to be played out for 6 weeks. It had been a few days since Steven had seen Amy and he missed her deeply.
Steven was a loving person couldn't help tell those closest and dearest to him that he loved them and that's what Doug couldn't get he couldn't get that he loved his on screen family and that's why he dumped him. He was complaining that he didn't have enough for him. That the show took up all his time that he cared more about his fake family and friends more then his real one. Steven really should thank him for leaving he didn't need someone so selfish and jealous in his life he was so much better than him.
When Steven got to the studio his "family and friends" were outside having a smoke.
"Hey Ste, how are you?" asked Leanne
"I'm good you?"
"Can't complain"
Amy walked over to Steven and gave him a big hug and a kiss on the cheek.
"Missed you so much" said Amy
"It's only been a week"
"Too long"
"I heard good changes are in store for the cast, one that'll make you happy" said Simon
"What?" asked Steven
"Can't say, just rumors, let the producers tell us for sure, it's a secret"
Steven was excited for the first time in months maybe even years.
When they all walked into the room with the producers, directors, and writers they sat down and listen to what was going to be happening. The producers said that big changes were going to be in the works for up coming story lines and that Steven would be back in the game sort of speaking and when Steven heard
that he stood up straight and welcomed this new surprising story line. Before the cast was told about what was going to happen they had to swear not to tell anyone anything that wasn't in the room. The cast and crew shook their heads but when the cast and other crew members found out about the changes they had to keep under wraps no one expected the out come, at least of all Steven.
