Chapter 10
Connor and Tristan walked into the hotel, after spending nearly most of the day messing around and having fun before they played their show tonight. Though, doing press and interviews wasn't exactly that fun. They had only finished an hour ago, and Brad and James had both done disappearing acts like magicians so they assumed they had both came back to the hotel to their rooms.
Brad's was the closest room from the lobby so they went there first. Tristan knocked on the door and both boys waited patiently for him to come open up the door, but he never. They waited at least twenty seconds before one of them knocked again, and this time louder and harder. "Brad." Connor called, placing his face near the crack in the door so it would travel through more clearly. Tristan tried again, this time using his fist. Connor had to stop him because he thought he was going to put a hole in the door or break it, and he really didn't feel like paying for the vadalism.
They both looked at eachother before trying the door handle where the door opened up wide, and they came face to face with an empty room. Tristan walked over to the door of the bathroom and opened it up, hoping like hell that if Brad was in there he was done doing whatever he was doing. Still. No luck.
Tristan sighed, shutting the door and turning to face Connor "Nothing," He said, making Connor sigh also "maybe we should go to James' room. Maybe he's in there, or he might know where he is."
"Oh no, I've got a pretty rough idea where he is."
Tristan nodded, knowing what he meant. The boys left Brad's room and shut the door behind them, making sure it was locked and that nobody walked in. Hopefully Brad had his hotel room key with him and didn't leave it somewhere stupid so he didn't have to take it with him, because if he doesn't have his key now he's not going to be able to get in. He's done this before plenty of times, lets just hope he's finally learnt his lesson about doing it all the time.
When they got up to James' room, they listened in for any noise coming from the inside and they could hear subtle strumming of a guitar. It was obvious James was in there. They opened up the door and found him sat on a chair playing on his guitar, purely out of boredness and because there was nothing else to do.
Connot twisted and turned his head, looking around the room for any sign of Brad. Nothing. James stopped playing and gave the two boys a suspicious look "What are you doing in here?" James asked. Not that he was complaining.
"Nothing, just looking for Brad," Connor answered "is he in here?" he asked.
James shook his head "Nope," he said, popping the p "haven't seen him since we finished doing press," he answered, strumming hard on his guitar almost in anger and annoyance, and it was anger and annoyance "it's almost like he's gone off somewhere." he put his guitar down, knowing that if he continued he'd end up breaking it. He sighed and sat back in his chair before getting up. "Don't bother trying his room, I've looked."
Connor and Tristan nodded, looking at each other and not saying a single word. James walked over to the end of his bed and sat down on the edge of it. "Listen, James," Connor said, deciding this was the right time to say something to him. He took a step towards him "I erm... er... Don't suppose you know something about Brad, do you?" he asked.
James' head shot up to Connor, at first he was confused but then got suspicious seeing the nervous look on Connor's face. He stood up slowly "Depends... What does this 'something' have to do with?"
"Him disappearing at random times like this... and the way he's been acting..." Tristan said, like he was approaching the back of a horse.
None of them were sure if each other knew about Ross and Brad being together, so they had to tred very carefully. They know it's their secret, and more importantly Brad's secret, to keep and they don't want to go against Brad like that and tell people who don't know about them. Even if they are his close friends who they have known for years.
James nodded "Quite possibly..."
"And if you do know, what we think you know we know," Connor said, going on "how did you find out?" he asked.
"I'm not stupid, that's a starter. That, and Brad's not that subtle when it comes to hiding things." James answered almost straight away "how did you two find out?" he asked.
"Rydel," Connor answered "we were sitting together on the plane and she accidentally let slip."
"So... she knew?"
"Apparently. She got told the night before they met in England again."
James nodded, starting to get a little bit confused about this situation. He could tell by the looks on Connor and Tristan's face that they were getting confused too, or they weren't quite sure yet on whether James actually knew what they knew. "Right, just to make this clear and less confusing," James said "we are talking about Ross and Brad aren't we?" he asked. Both of them nodded. "Good, I was starting to wonder when you two would find out for yourselves."
"When did you figure it out?" Tristan asked.
"Well, the night before they came over to London, I went over to Brad's house but when I did I heard him on the phone talking to someone, and obviously by the way he was talking to them I knew it was a girlfriend. At the time, anyway. But it wasn't just that, everything about how he had been acting, secret texts and phone calls all came back to me and it all made sense that it had to do with a girl. Then he said Ross's name, and I was like 'it couldn't be'. When he had hung up I waited before going into his room and thought nothing more of it. Then when we went to go see them at the hotel, you and Brad went to go find Ross and Riker whilst me and Tristan got Rocky and Ellington. I don't know, I found it suspicious how Brad disappeared from your sight, Connor, and then I found him alone in Ross's room with Ross. So I started to think about the phone call again, and thought it might be a possibility that they could be together, and then they disappeared five minutes before R5 had to go on stage, and that was when I was about 90 percent sure about them being a couple. But then the next day, I went to Brad's house and he wasn't there, and when he got back, he was still wearing the same clothes as the night before, I asked him why. And he did in fact tell me he had spent the night with Ross, but of course he made up a lie about why he had and not the actual reason why he stayed." James explained, sounding fed up and getting slightly more angry as he reached the end of the explanation. He took a deep breath to calm himself afterwards.
Connor nodded "Y-yeah... I think.. um... the hickey on his neck gave that one away for me," he said, signalling to his neck "I thought it was a bruise... obviously not," Connor then scrunched his face up in disgust and shook his head "ew. Aw man, now I've got a disgusting image in my head. Thanks for that, James!" he put his head in his hands, beginning to wipe his face as if trying to get the image of Ross and Brad out of his head "oh my god, ew!"
Tristan laughed "It's almost as bad as the image I got of you and Rydel when you asked her if she was pregnant on the plane." he laughed, but realised James was in the room. He immediately sobered up his laughter and threw his hands to his mouth.
Along with receiving a slap off Connor round the head for the comment of him and Rydel.
God, he's being almost as bad as Rocky when it came to the time Rydel and Ellington were whinding up the fans with Rydellington and then there was Rocky helping sail the ship even more. That is exactly what Tristan is like right now.
James grimaced with disgust "Oh, great. Now I've got the image in my head, thanks a lot Tristan."
"What of Ross and Brad?" Tristan asked, in disbelief "Connor's the one who got it first!"
"No! Not that! Connor and Rydel! Ew! Oh my jesus, now I've got that in my—can we please talk about something else."
As Connor went to go say something to James about that, he was distracted by his phone ringing.
Bradley Simpson
He scoffed "Speak of the devil. Hello?" Connor answered "yeah, we're at the hotel... where are you?... For a walk, I see," he said, wiggling his eye brow to James and Tristan as they knew it was a clear lie "taking it your on your own? Of course you are," he smiled, sarcastically but Brad couldn't see that being at the other end of the phone "just make sure you get back before soundcheck, okay?... Is that all you called me fo—Well why does she want me? What have I done?... Ooohh... never mind...I know what now... can you get Ross to tell her I'm busy?" He asked, then his eyes widened when he realised he said Ross's name indicating to Brad, Connor knew he was with him "no... no... because... I said Ross, because.. um... I don't have Rydel's number, but surely you must have one of their numbers. Right? Great, kay bye." Connor hung up as fast as he could before he dug himself any deeper in the hole he was digging himself into.
"What did he want?" James asked.
"Apparently Rydel wanted me for something, but I know what it's for... and to be honest, I don't wanna get involved because Titus will take it the wrong way and I'll get punched in the face for trying to be nice and a good friend to her." Connor explained, talking at a quick place "anyway, I'm going back to my room to get ready for tonight and well.. sleep for a little while. See ya both later." he waved as he left the room.
Tristan walked over to the bed and sat down next to James "He is so going to accidentally get involved with Rydel. I can see it now, I really can." Tristan said, still looking at the door.
"He already is."
Tristan turned his head to James, giving him a confused look. "Think about it, if Rydel's calling him, talking to him and asking him to meet her places... he's already got ivolved with them both and he doesn't even know it. He thinks he's safe," James said, feeling like he was the only person screwed on with his head straight and thinking clearly out of his three best friends "cause once Titus see's or hears of it... there could probably be one less member in this band." he said, referring to The Vamps and how Titus could possibly kill Connor.
Tristan shrugged "Well, it was only me, you and Brad to begin with so..." Tristan joked, James laughed "wouldn't really make a difference. I mean, if it was Brad who got killed then we would have a problem because then we'd have no lead singer." He went on to joke, with a little laugh.
James laughed too, but when Tristan lookded away from it he let the laugh drop into a nervous look rather than being happy and joking along.
Riker waited patiently in the waiting room of the hospital for Laura to come back from seeing the Doctor. She had already been in to see one to see if they could see anything wrong with her by looking at her, or by her telling her what she's been feeling etc.. But no, they decided to do something else with her that Laura didn't want to tell Riker until afterwards incase she scared him for no reason, which Riker didn't get. If there was 50 percent chance of him freaking out over it for a reason and 50 for no reason, then why did it matter if he knew or not?
And he had to wait in the waiting room, so he couldn't even see where Laura went to have an idea of where she was going.
All he could do was laugh at himself right now. He was getting worried and protective and Laura isn't even his girlfriend, just a friend. A very, very good friend. That hopefully might turn into something more one day, but hey who's asking, right?
But you know, right now he's content with being just friends. He's not getting impatient for them both to pull their acts together and get some sort of romance starting. Because like past scenarios for him, he's never took his time getting into a relationship and it has always ended in disaster. Even when it was a good relationship something always happened where it would end because of some sort of reason that really wasn't fair.
As he was lost in those thoughts, he failed to notice the door opening from down the hallway where Laura was coming down from. It was when she was halfway down the hallway he noticed her, he stood up and smiled at her. But it slowly faded when he saw Laura wasn't smiling. She gave him a weak one, but went back to frowning again. "Is everything okay...?" Riker asked.
Laura went to go nod, letting him know everything is okay, but it really wasn't. It was far from okay. Instead she shrugged, not being sure what to say. "Where did you go?" Riker asked "can you tell me now?"
Laura nodded "W-why don't we go o-outside. We'll talk t-there."
They both walked out of the hospital quietly, Riker followed her behind nervously as he wasn't quite sure on what she was going to tell him. He had no idea. Nothing was coming to his mind at all.
There was a bench on the grass outside which is where they sat on. They weren't exactly going to go sit on the stone cold floor were they? They could have went back to Riker's care but Laura made him come over here. "So," Riker said, breaking the silence now that they were sat down "you erm... are you going to tell me what you were in there for?"
"They couldn't f-find anything wrong with me by l-l-looking at me. They c-couldn't really figure anyth-thing m-minor out with me by me telling th-them. But there was s-something else... and they made m-me go have a test for something."
"And that was...?"
She turned her head and looked at Riker dead in the face "They made me go for a CT scan, Riker."
At that moment right there Riker's face dropped, that much he's surprised it didn't fall off his head and onto the ground. He was no longer smiling or feeling happy anymore. Not even nervous. He didn't know how to feel anymore. "B-but... you're okay, aren't you?" Riker asked, praying like hell she was "they didn't... they didn't find anything. Did they?" he asked, getting nervous.
"They found a brain tumour..." She said, trying to be delicate towards Riker with this seen as though he's the first to know but she didn't know how to be delicate with it. "Grade 2... nearly 3 if they don't do something about it."
"A-are they going to do something about it?" Riker asked, sliding closer to her on the bench "they are going to do something it right? Laura?" he asked, seen as though she kept on staring at him and not giving him an answer.
Laura nodded "Oh, yeah. They can remove it by surgery so it's gone... but... it's a grade 2 brain tumour."
"Meaning?"
"Meaning even if they do get rid of it, Riker, it is going to come back again at some point in my life."
Riker nodded "Right, exactly. Some point in your life. So therefore, you can get surgery for this right? Worry about getting the tumour again later in life. Right?" He asked, getting even more nervous and worried. Hence why he kept on repeating 'right'. He does that when he's nervous.
Laura nodded "I will," she smiled "get rid of this one and just well... wait for the next if it does decide to come back."
"So it might not come back at all?" Riker asked, trying to be sure of this.
Laura shrugged "They said it might not. But, given it's close to a three.. there's a very huge chance it is going to come back."
"When are you going in for surgery?"
Again Laura shrugged, almost like she wasn't bothered by this at all one bit "I don't know. They said there's a lot of surgeries going on at the moment, you know because people are idiots and can't take care of themselves, but they said the next free time they're going to put me in it and get it done. They might even move some patients back just so I can get it removed."
"Well, this is pretty serious, Laura. You should have been made to main priority."
"Riker, there's people with Grade 4 brain tumours, they're main priority because they're all going to die pretty soon." Laura told him. She was definitely being more calm than Riker was on the outside, but on the inside she was freaking out and going all over the place and bouncing off the roofs and everything.
"I suppose we just have to see what happens..." Laura said in a quiet voice, looking away from Riker and facing towards the building of the hospital.
What a lovely chapter. Foreshadowing, sadness and more foreshadowing. I need to stop before I become the John Green of FanFiction.
As far as a video for you to watch... I have been saying "Harry Potter & The Manchester Lights" on the Vamps's personal channel or the music video to Last Night by The Vamps. Or the Ross VS Brad, Rydel VS Connor interview that R5 & The Vamps did in March. Don't know if any of you have watched that yet. Just typed in on YouTube "The Vamps & R5 interview" and it should come up I think it's called "Fun with Luke, The Vamps & R5" or something like that. Idk. The Vamps had to vs R5, so it was Brad VS Ross, Rydel VS Connor, Rocky VS Tristan and James VS Riker. It was hilarious bc they had to do accents :''') There is another R5 & The Vamps interview where it's JUST Rydel & Connor VSing each other buT I CAN'T FIND IT BC THEY USER DELETED THE VIDEO DAMN IT. Hopefully I'll find it. If i do, I'll let you guys know hehe.
Yeah, that interview kinda kills me just a little bit bc of reasons. There's also a chubby bunny challenge where it was James VS Rocky. That is REALLY funny too.
Anyway, I'll shut up now and let you review haha.
