Author's Note (Monster): Hello, our lovelies! It's good to be out of the hospital again with Awoken by my side. I think it's fair enough to say he's fine again. He'll always be a dork, but you know what I mean. My computer is currently broken but I'll get it back in maybe 2 or 3 days so I'm sorry but chapter 10 will be delayed. Sorry! Also, I've written until chapter 17 and when I reread this chapter, I started laughing at my own jokes. Pathetic, right? Then I realized I made Johnny say something in chapter 17 which he already said in this one...shit, I'm repeating myself! Enjoy!

MagicPug: I take it you enjoyed Black Dahlia? Please enjoy.

BloodSpinat: That's pretty bad about your mom and sister. We're here for you, though! Consider us two big brothers. Don't worry about Awoken. It's nothing bad. He just pretty much jumped off the couch, had a black out and hit his head against the table. It was just a concussion this time. I'm pretty damn sure I'd have a heart attack if you teleported right besides me. Also, I need to correct myself about the Stockholm Syndrome in this story. It'll be bad, not that bad, but bad enough and it won't develop further until maybe 10 chapter further. Oh en you show us your support through the reviews I always await. I love them so much, I actually wait for them. Also, quick question: I took over this story from Awoken, do I fit in with the other chapters?Enjoy.


Day 12 and still they have yet to move on and get over Danny's death. Funny Man started eating like a normal human again now that he felt Danny's presence in his heart. Nowadays they sat together a lot on the couch. Johnny awkwardly sitting next to the bunk door and four of them on the couch. Funny Man next to J-Dog and Da Kurlzz. Charlie in Da Kurlzz' lap. They weren't even trying to hide their relationship anymore. They didn't need to. The only one dating a woman was Johnny anyway. J-Dog broke the silence by clearing his throat. "Now that he's… dead. I think we should call the police on Deuce."

"And tell them what? We don't even know where Deuce is."

"They'll do the searching for us. We've got evidence on our phones", J-Dog said.

"He's not dead."

Four heads turned towards their Mexican friend. "What?"

"He's not dead", he repeated, calmly.

Now he owed them an explanation. J-Dog nudged him. "How do you know?"

"Because I saw him", Funny Man stated as if the others were stupid for asking such question. Charlie threw his hands up in a frustrated manner. "And you didn't bother telling us?"

"When?" Johnny asked, leaning in closer.

"Yesterday night. You guys were out for dinner and I was lying on the couch. He was next to me", Funny Man replied.

All four of them sighed in annoyance. Da Kurlzz gave an angry scowl. "You're telling us he's not dead because you were hallucinating? Are you on weed again?"

The Mexican rolled his eyes. "It's true though. He's alive. He was sad, crying even. He kept whispering 'save me'. I just feel him. He's alive and I can't explain how I know. It's a feeling."

Still the others remained angry, except for Da Kurlzz. His scowl had turned into a gaze of understanding. "I believe you."

Charlie turned to him, baffled. "You believe that shit?"

His curly haired boyfriend nodded. "Do you remember that one time? You were hit by a car and I felt a sting in my heart while I was miles away from you."

"Coincidence", Charlie scoffed.

"No. That's love", Da Kurlzz smiled softly. Charlie rolled his eyes but couldn't hide a smile of happiness. He liked it when his friend was being sappy.

Funny Man disturbed their thoughts. "So that's why I think Danny's alive. I feel him and he's in pain."

"Of course he is. Deuce is probably beating the shit out of him", the eldest member thought out loud. Four pair of eyes turned his way but earned a shrug. "I'm just saying. I get jealous a lot too and if Charlie would kick me out of the band for getting cranky because of it, I'd want to kill the one I got jealous of too."

Charlie took his face into both hands. "You have no right to be jealous because I don't see anyone but you", he cooed.

J-Dog pretended to be throwing up. Johnny rolled his eyes and Funny Man stuck out his tongue in disgust. "Get a room, you two!"

Charlie shrugged and looked at Da Kurlzz, who got the hint and scooped up his boyfriend in his arms, carrying him to their bunk. Johnny quickly stole their spot on the couch.

"I don't get how they can still have so much fun while Danny…", Funny Man's voice died in his throat as he couldn't pronounce it. J-Dog swung an arm around his shoulders and squeezed him tightly. "You can't blame them for trying to cheer up. We'll find him and we'll save him. We can go ask around if anyone witnessed an unconscious singer getting dragged into a car. If there are witnesses, we can ask them which way the car went and if they saw the license plate. Then we can figure out if there's an apartment with a car park where it says 'no trespassing' and we know where Danny is!"

Johnny huffed and folded his arms. "I think you're forgetting that this is USA. It's filled with fucking apartments forbidding trespassing!"

J-Dog tapped his temples. "That's exactly why we need the license plate. The car park doesn't admit trespassing so the car must be parked in front of the apartment, right? If we know the directions and we know the license plate, we should be able to figure out which apartment it is."

The blue masked member hummed in agreement. "I do admit that's a nice plan."

"And then I'll castrate Deuce and take my leave into the sunset with my damsel in need", Funny Man joked. Johnny rolled his eyes but J-Dog held his hand to his heart with a sympathetic look into his eyes. "That's so romantic."

"God, when I see Danny, I'm gonna be sappy. I'll run up to him, twirl him around and kiss him", the Mexican thought aloud. Johnny gagged and held his fist in front of his mouth. "I'm sorry. I'm allergic to fabulousness."

J-Dog hit him harshly on the head. "Fuck you. We're going to make you fabulous."

"Try", Johnny dared him with squinted eyes. J-Dog wiggled his eyebrows and the two of them burst out laughing. Still their youngest friend didn't understand how they could laugh in times like these but yet it felt pleasant to hear their careless laughter. Like everything was back to normal. When he dared to let his lips form a smile, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest.

It knocked every bit of air out of him and he grabbed my chest with a keen of pain. The other two gawked at him in astonishment. "Funny? You okay?"

"Do I look fucking okay?" he wanted to yell but his windpipe didn't give him a chance to even utter a word. He could barely breath, every breath was like a wheeze. Danny. He had broken something and Funny Man could feel his pain deep inside his heart. It was unbearable. His body tried to reject the pain inside. He doubled over onto the floor. Both of his friends got up as if the couch caught fire and crouched by their friend's side. "What's going on?" J-Dog asked worried.

Johnny shook his head and wore a concerned frown on his face. "Funny?"

Suddenly the pain lessened and he could breathe normally. Still he felt a numb sting inside my chest. He was still hurt, his loved one. He was still hurt but it was less intense. What the fuck had happened to him? Suddenly he was scared. What if… What if Deuce had given him the dead penalty and life was slowly flowing of his body? Or maybe the Mexican had discovered a heart condition? No, it was Danny. He knew for sure it was his loved one. He knew he was in immense pain but he didn't know whether it was because he was dead or because he was hurt severely. Something inside told him it was a broken bone or bones.

"We need to find him quickly. We're running out of time", Funny Man stated dryly while the other two were worried sick about him. They helped him upright and Johnny immediately smacked his head. "You scared us!"

"I know, I'm sorry but I felt him. He broke something", the Mexican answered.

J-Dog and Johnny offered each other a lost glance and turned their gazes back at Funny Man. "Then we need to find him quickly."

Both Da Kurlzz and Charlie heard the fuzz and came back to see what had happened. "Is everything okay?" the curly haired man asked.

The three others nodded in unison. "Funny Man felt a major sting because Danny got hurt."

A silence fell between the five of them. Charlie decided to break it. "I don't get it. Why do you suddenly feel Danny? Why didn't you feel him before?"

Funny Man shrugged. "How should I know?"

He idly rubbed his chest where his heart should be and thought about the sting. Somehow he felt grateful he could feel the presence of his precious. It gave him hope . He wasn't dead yet. He was still fighting for his life. Da Kurlzz bit his lip. "Maybe Danny's only now reaching out for your warmth and comfort?"

He didn't know why he only felt it now, but he enjoyed the thought of Da Kurlzz' theory. It wasn't a solid one but it was a romantic one and lately he enjoyed romance very much.
