Previously In Karan's POV
"You never answered my question Drone!" I shouted at him and he looked at me. His electric blue eyes meeting my amber ones for the first time that night,
"You don't want to know." Derek returned with his coat and Drone took it with a nod of his head,
"You don't get to decide what I do and don't want to know!" My hands clenched into fists and he let out a small laugh his lips twitching up into a small smile.
"I'll answer you when you tell me truthfully," He paused and pulled on his coat, "why you hate that I'm gay."
Drone's POV
"I-" Karan went silent looking down at his feet like he was ashamed of himself and I looked at Derek.
"Thank you for the invitation I'm sorry for that previous scene."
"That's alright it beats being alone for Christmas."
"Drone can't you at least stay for presents I have a few for you." Lani begged and I shook my head,
"I really must be going, I fear that it was too soon for my return."
"You're going away just like that huh." I looked over to see Karan rolling his eyes, already recovered from our argument to return to the jackass he's recently become. And the words just slipped out.
"Sometimes I wonder why I ever loved you Karan." His face paled and I didn't regret them anymore, "maybe I was just in love with the person you used to be."
"What is that supposed to mean!" He snapped a blush clear upon his face and I looked at the people around me,
"I quit the band," I told them. "I've decided to move to Europe, Italy actually it's beautiful up there and maybe I'll find someone up there."
"Quitting!" I blocked Karan's freak out and hugged Lani,
"It's been a nice run but I'm done."
"Done! You can't quit out of the blue like that!"
"You'll visit right?" Lani asked and I nodded,
"Of course I'll visit you, Daniel, Tori, Po maybe even Derek and Simon if they wouldn't mind." Both shook their heads at me and I grinned, "I have to go pack up my stuff now."
"Can we say goodbye at the airport this time?" Lani asked and I nodded.
"I'll let you know when I'm leaving."
And just like that I walked out.
Derek's POV
"Interesting guy." I muttered as the door closed before walking into the living room with the others.
"I already miss Drone!" Lani complained as she sat on Daniel's lap. Who nodded agreeing with her,
"I should go as well." Karan spoke up from the door frame and his date looked up from the couch,
"Can't we stay please Karan." He looked at her like he didn't even remember she was here and I held a laugh back. These people were insane,
"I got a present for Chloe." Lani whispered and I tensed up.
"So did I." Daniel said and suddenly the mood changed to sorrow.
"She'd want us to be happy on Christmas." Karan spoke up and Lani looked at him.
"If you stay I'll be happy!" She cheered and he sighed moving into the room to sit down. Lani jumped up and started to hand out presents saying who could open them and who couldn't.
"Karan it's your turn." He looked up from his beer can to take the wrapped gift from Lani's hand, "it's from Drone." Just as I expected at the mention of his name his eyes went wide and he dropped the can onto the floor where it tipped over and spilled the liquid on my carpet.
"Shit!" He said standing up to clean up the mess the present forgotten on the chair he'd been sitting on previously. I stood up and left the room for something to prevent a stain as he took a cloth from Lani and scrubbed at the carpet.
"Here." I handed him the liquid and he took it shamefully.
"How do I use this." He asked and we all looked at him with wide eyes,
"What do you mean how do I use this!" Lani asked freaking out, "don't you clean up after the parties you throw at your house."
"No."
"Then how come it's so clean?" Daniel asked and Karan looked down,
"Cause Drone cleans it for me..." His words faded out and the room went silent again.
"He cleans for you?" Tori asked and Karan nodded, "what else does he do for you?"
"Did." Daniel cut in and Karan looked at his hands,
"My laundry, my dishes, made me food, cleaned my room, made my bed-"
"He did all that!" Karan shrugged and I rolled my eyes,
"Guess he really loved you." Karan stood up and glared at me,
"He doesn't love me and he never did!"
"He just told you he did!" Lani freaked out and Karan rolled his eyes sitting back on his sit. As soon as he did you could hear the crinkle of wrapping paper from the forgotten present. Karan reached under him and pulled it out, slowly he pulled the wrapping paper off staring at the blue/black sweater before him. It was neatly stitched together and looked like it'd be warm. He unzipped the sweater and let it slide to reveal and picture frame.
Karan's POV
I stared at the picture. I looked back but so did he. It'd been a warm summer day and the band had taken a break. Drone and I went out back to goof off while the others got a drink. He'd insisted on giving a piggyback ride to me and who was I to reject. In the photo he was smiling eyes trying to look up at me and I was laughing. I dropped the photo onto the ground but it didn't break. That wasn't my objective anyways. Getting up I ran at the door and out it before anyone could tell me not too. I froze halfway down the driveway as I stared at his car. Parked at the end of the driveway. Engine off and not even moving.
"Took you long enough." I turned around to see him leaning against the wall, "didn't want me to leave after all huh?" He asked standing up he brushed the snow from his hands which by then were red from the cold.
"Drone?" I asked and he rolled his eyes.
"No I'm the Easter Bunny."
"Little early for you to be hiding eggs." I teased and he smiled,
"Yeah I guess it is." His breath was foggy in the air and he walked down the steps, "you left to get me you forgot your shoes and your jacket." I blushed and he rolled his eyes.
"You look cold." I told him and he shrugged,
"Come on lets head inside."
"Okay." I replied but before he could make a step I grabbed his hand and he froze, "I'm not gay." I whispered and he looked at me.
"I know." I felt a blush cover my face and looked down,
"I'm not gay. I like girls not guys." I continued and I felt him sigh,
"I'm not-"
"Let me finish!" I screamed at him and he didn't say anything to me so I continued, "I'm not gay but I like- no I love you. I know it'd taken me awhile to figure it out I'm not the best at this stuff, but I know I love you Drone!" He didn't reply and pulled me in for a hug,
"Again."
"What?" I asked and he laughed into my neck making my hair stand on end,
"Tell me again."
"All of it!" I said completely surprised and he looked up at me smiling,
"Just the end." I ducked my head blushing and sighed,
"I love you." I whispered not meeting his eyes.
"I know." He replied his face was way to close to mine for my liking and I pulled away,
"Hey! Just what do you think you're doing!" I screamed and he smiled.
"Well I was going to kiss the man whom loves me."
"What! No way! I'm not kissing you!" He smiled at me and I was sure I was bright red by now,
"Isn't that what you meant by loving me?" He asked and I looked down.
"Y-yeah but I..."
"Relax Karan, if you're not ready just say so." He ruffled my hair with a small laugh, "but you're freezing cold so lets head in."
"Okay." I whispered and let him lead me into the house.
A/N: If this doesn't make sense just send me a review of PM me. If you're a guest and you don't know just review and I'll put a short explanation at the beginning of the next chapter.
Oh and please let me know if I rushed the boys. I hope I didn't but since Drone knows Karan so well he would know exactly what to do to make him chase after him XD.
