Chapter 30
The Last Judgement

6 Months Later

Everything had pretty much gone back to normal now. Nobody was confused any more, not much anyway, and nobody was getting random happy and sad emotions when they saw someone. Luke eventually stopped going through his random crying stage that everybody was so confused about including himself. He stopped randomly crying when it got to the end of April. Even Ross and Brad cried randomly at one point.

That was a couple of nights after Luke started crying for no reason – all because it was the date Ashton died and Luke was feeling the emotion he felt from it. Brad and Ross also felt the emotion from it too, because Ross remembers a couple of nights after Ashton died, Brad left the cabin they were in and went outside because that was the only time he could let it out. Even Ross hadn't let his emotion out about it yet, and Ross is pretty damn sure Rocky hadn't either. Unless he did it in his own time.

Obviously when Ross and Brad had their little random cry for no reason was the emotion from that night. AKA one of the many nights that never happened. At least to everyone around the world but Ross. It still happened to him. He has to live almost 2 years of his life all over again. Not that he's complaining because for a year and a bit of those two years he did spend in a never ending zombie apocalypse without everybody he cared about. His Mom, Brad, Luke, Ashton etc.

He only had to go a day without Rydel and about half an hour without Riker and Rocky. Now he's gone 6 months without Rydel, Riker and Ellington all together.

Every time he went home to LA with Rocky, they would always go in the store where Rydel worked with her friend Maia. Sometimes Ross just went in there for the sake of seeing Rydel. Occasionally when Ross went in there he would catch Rydel staring at him like she wanted to talk to him or that she recognised him from somewhere, and he's not gonna lie. It hurt. Sometimes he'd even have a small conversation with her about some things before he would leave. Heck, he even saw Ellington and Riker together or separately some times walking the streets. He'd see Ellington with Tristan and Connor sometimes along with Riker being with Laura.

It was good to know they were happy, because Ross isn't.

Even after six months. It was like each day got more and more depressing as it went by. He barely smiled any more and Brad, Rocky, Luke and Ashton were starting to notice it. Ashton more than anyone. Ross was not himself any more. Mainly because he'd seen the things nobody would ever be able to remember, they would only dream about it or imagine it and that stuff is scarring.

It's scary for him having to sit there every day and look at Luke and Brad, knowing that he watched Luke die because Brad shot him and knowing that he killed Brad himself to put him out of his misery. And yet here they were, alive. All because it never happened. But it still happened for him.

See, this is why he didn't want Ellington to remember the apocalypse and shot him dead. Because this was driving him insane. Knowing he couldn't even talk about it to anybody because nobody remembered. He had nobody to share it with, not his thoughts or feelings about it either. Ross is actually getting that sad and depressed he's starting to drift away from Brad, Rocky, Ashton and Luke. Most nights when the four of them go to do something fun he'd always chose to stay in his room by himself. The four of them use to put up a fight to get him to go out but now they don't. They just leave him.

The only time he is out of his room is when he's doing his job or when he has to eat. Not that he's been doing much eating either.

This was really getting to him. He'd been scarred badly.

Right now he was sat outside on a bench table where there were some people eating their lunch, but he was sat on his own playing with his food. God knows where Ashton, Luke, Rocky and Brad were. They were probably working or something. At least that's what he thought because Ashton walked out the doors and as soon as he saw Ross he made a B line for him and sat right opposite him "Hey," Ashton said, smiling and cheery, Ross flashed him a smile and that was about it. Ashton sighed "Smile. You've got a face that could kill an army of kittens."

Now it was Ross's turn to sigh as he leaned on the table with his hand under his chin, doing nothing but look sad and depressed. Ashton frowned "What's wrong, Ross?" Ashton asked "you've been down a lot lately. These past six months to be exact. Actually scratch that, since December pretty much. That's right, I take notes on these things," He said, as he saw the look he was getting from Ross "what's going on? Has something happened that we don't know about?" He asked.

Ross shrugged "Something like that."

Ashton rolled his eyes "You always say that when you get asked that by one of us!"

"Because it's true." Ross mumbled, looking down.

Ashton gave Ross a suspicious look, hearing Ross's mumble. He hated seeing his friends so sad like that. He'd never seen anything like this before. Ashton leaned on the table a little bit "Don't lie to me Ross, I know something's going on and I don't want you to lie to me because I want to try and help," Ashton said, lowering his voice so only Ross could hear and others passing by couldn't "I don't care if you think I can't help, but surely there's got to be a way. Even if you only need me to vent off or rant to, letting it off your chest helps. Or even if you need to confess to me you've killed someone and need me to help hide the body," he joked, seeing a little smile on Ross's face when he said that "Now I'm going to ask you again... what's wrong?"

Ross looked up, looking straight at Ashton's face with uncertainty but yet feeling a warmness inside his body that Ashton cared and he didn't care what it was about, he'd help him whatever the cost. Ross shook his head "If I told you, you wouldn't believe me. You'd call my crazy and insane and decide I need to be locked up in a mental hospital."

Ashton shrugged "Try me," he said "you look like you've been dragged through hell. Seen something you shouldn't have and can't get it out of your head. So tell me. Please? What's it got to do with?"

Ross took a deep breath and sat up straight "Do you ever have weird dreams?" he asked "like... a dream of you being killed or dying."

Ashton looked up thoughtfully for a second and back at Ross. Ashton nodded "Yeah. I had one before, the night the science department blew up. I had a dream we went over to Afghanistan and I got killed. You got shot, I don't know if you died or not though. I know I did because Luke's face was the last thing I saw," he said, talking like he had actually lived it. He shook his head "But yeah. Just a dream. Nothing more. Why? What's that got to do with anything?"

"Because that dream did happen."

Ashton gave Ross a look that told him he was crazy. Ross sighed "Look. The Epoch machine blew up. It blew up because it had been used," he said, starting to see Ashton's face soften like he was starting to believe Ross or that parts of it made sense "and it had been used by me."

Ashton twisted and turned his head and looked back at Ross, not being sure what to think "I want to think you're being crazy right now, but I actually believe you for some reason..." he said, seeing Ross's eyes twinkle with some sort of hope "so... I died... in Afghanistan, like my dream said... and you used the Epoch to turn back time and bring me back," then suddenly something clicked in Ashton's mind "Oh my god! That's why you took my name off the list to go over to Afghanistan!" Ashton began saying like everything was beginning to make sense.

"Eh, sorta," Ross said, seeing Ashton become more confused "something major happened when we got back from Afghanistan, apart from Luke's emotional breakdown. You know that experiment that was going on before the science department blew up into the sky?" he asked, Ashton nodded "yeah, that broke out and caused the zombie apocalypse, we lost Luke and Brad thinking they were dead but they weren't, so me, Will and Rocky suffered for a year and a half before Will got killed and sent us to come use to the Epoch to turn things back to normal. Along the way we met a girl called Rydel and two guys called Ellington and Riker. Rydel got killed on the day before we fixed everything, that night we found Brad, the day after we found Luke because he held me at gun point, then we reached here, Rocky and Riker stayed at the gate because there were too many zombies to handle so they kept it shut and died because the zombies broke through which left me, Ellington, Luke and Brad over. Then, Brad accidentally shot Luke dead thinking he was a zombie, so I comforted him until he was dead, and then Brad wanted me to shoot him in the head and kill him because he'd been scratched by a zombie and it was killing him slowly, it took some convincing but I shot him and then we got to the Epoch. Ellington wanted to remember, I wouldn't let him, I shot him dead, and ballah bing ballah boom here we are," Ross explained, taking a deep breath afterwards "so basically I'm the only one who can remember it and all the emotional things everyone has been feeling, like Luke not being able to stop crying on the date you were supposed to die, is because something was supposed to happen to them that day but it didn't. Why? Because I stopped it all from happening."

Ashton stared at Ross wide eyed, feeling confused. It made sense to him, and he thought Ross was insane a little bit. And if it wasn't for the fact every day since December Ross looked scarred, depressed and kept doing disappearing acts every now and then, Ashton would call him crazy and leave him to have some space. "Oh... fair enough..." Ashton said, not knowing what else to say really "um... if it wasn't for the fact of how you have been acting these past few months I would run for the desert hills and call you crazy... um... er... but common sense is telling me you're telling the truth... and er... yeah..."

Ross let out a soft laugh, feeling slightly better that he had finally told someone about it – even though that person didn't live to see the apocalypse. The smile wiped off his face and he looked back down, sadly. Ashton sighed, getting up from where he sat and sat beside Ross, putting his arm around him and giving him a hug. He's the oldest out of Ross, Rocky, Brad and Luke so therefore he feels like an older brother to them (minusing Luke for obvious reasons) and feels it's his job to make sure they're okay, happy and kick anybody's ass that makes them feel bad. That includes Luke too, but he can't exactly say Luke is like a brother to him can he?

Of course, in this case Ashton can't kick anybody's ass because they don't know it happened and they put him through this. "There, there," Ashton said, as Ross leaned into him "I'm sorry you had to go through that, and that I... um... missed it. But er, you know um... apparently bullets kill," he said, making Ross laugh at how Ashton was making a joke out of the fact he died and had no memory of it "so um... sorry I missed out on the apocalypse. Sounds like it was great fun. I'd have stuck with you till the end and made sure you weren't the only one who remembered. Because in all honesty, if I was Ellington and you held a gun at me I would have snapped your arm before you even got the chance to pull the trigger."

Ross smirked, pulling away from Ashton "Thanks, Ash."

Ashton smiled at him "No problem. So er... if you need to talk to me about it, or rant to me about it, just come find me and do it. Don't bottle it up like you have been because you'll end up killing yourself dude, I've seen it happen before and people attempt to do it," he said, sitting back where he was originally sat "of course... not over what you've been through. But erm... other things." he said, rubbing his wrists with a small frown on his face.

That made Ross frown, watching Ashton do that. He went to go ask Ashton a very personal question but was stopped by Rocky and Luke coming over. "Hey," Rocky said, sitting by Ross whilst Luke sat beside Ashton "what have we missed?" he asked.

Ross and Ashton glanced at each other and shook their heads. "Nothing. Just been talking, that's all," Ashton said "where's Brad?"

Luke shrugged "I don't know. Haven't seen him since this morning when I woke up. He'll be here in like five minutes or something though."

"Hey guys." Brad said, coming over with something in his hands. A book with a letter inside of it.

"Or five seconds." Luke said as Brad sat down at the end of the table.

Brad put down the book with the letter in front of him and sighed, looking at them all like he was just about done with everything "So, what have I missed?" he asked.

Again Ashton and Ross glanced at each other, and Rocky noticed. He gave them both a suspicious look as he saw them both glance at each other when he and Luke came over the first time "Alright, why do you two keep glancing at each other?" Rocky asked, again Ross and Ashton glanced at each other confused to if he was talking about them "again! There you go!"

Brad became confused, looking between Ross and Ashton and then to Rocky. Luke noticed the glances too but thought nothing of it. Rocky sighed "Please, oh please, do not tell me you two are secretly doing each other behind our backs like Luke and Ashton have."

"WHAT?!" Luke, Ashton, Ross and Brad shouted, drawing some attention to them. But everyone soon looked away from them.

"Okay, first of all," Luke said, putting his hand up "ew! Seconds of all-" Luke slapped Rocky across the head as hard as he could without warning.

Rocky yelped in pain and rubbed his head "Hey! Don't hit me or I'll shout it out it out louder so everybody hears!" Rocky said, directing it at the thing he said about Luke and Ashton "I'm not an idiot. I know things when I see it. Friendship, hatred, bromance, friends with benefits, romance. AKA you two. FUCK, has anybody told you, you can throw a hit?!" Rocky asked, glaring at Luke as he continued to rub the side of his head.

Luke smiled at him "Don't piss me off then."

Ross shrugged "Eh. I already knew," Ross said, continuing to talk further on the Luke and Ashton thing even though they didn't want to. Luke gave Ross a suspicious look and Ashton stared at Ross. Ashton thought about it hard of how Ross knew, but knew it had to be because Luke either told him during the apocalypse before it didn't happen or he's just good at spotting those things. Ross shrugged again "Hey. I'm blonde, not blind."

"I'm not blonde, but I'm certainly not blind either." Brad said, deciding to add himself into this.

"Oh, you are fucking kidding me." Luke said, in disbelief that his little secret wasn't a little secret any more.

Brad raised his hands up "I have no problem with it. I'm sure neither do them two. Just good luck with Rocky's comments."

"Yeah," Rocky said, leaning on the table, looking at Ross and Brad "now that they know we know about their little romance, can you two swap rooms with them? Because I don't want to be sharing a room with a couple."

Ross smirked as that only got Rocky another slap from Luke in the same spoke he had hit him. Rocky yelped in pain again and went to go shout out, but Luke grabbed him by the collar of his shirt "Don't you dare or I will hit you again twice as hard."

"Anyway," Ashton said, deciding to take the subject away from that. He turned to Brad "Wotcha got there book boy?" he asked.

Brad gave him a confused look but realised what he meant. The book he had. "Oh, yeah. It's a book," he said, holding it up in the air for Ashton to see properly "I don't read. Not out of my own choice anyway. Yeah, last time I went to go visit my Mum in England, she said I should read more because my vocabulary is terrible, and I'm pretty sure that is not the reason why people read. I told her that. But apparently she picked this one especially for me because she thinks I'll like it."

"And do you?" Luke asked.

Brad shrugged "Eh, I'm only on chapter 3, nearly on 4. it's okay I suppose. It's not unpleasant. But a girls just came into it and I swear to god if there's some cheesy romance, I'll burn the book and then my Mum for giving me a freaking romance story that seemed cool at first." he opened it up to where he last left off where a letter fell out of it, he looked down and remembered he had it "Oh! Ross, this is for you." He said, throwing the letter at him.

Ross caught it and looked down at it. "Yeah, it came this morning to our room after you left," Brad said, flipping through the book "I don't know who it's from."

"Neither do I... I don't recognise the writing..." Ross said, opening up the envelope and pulling out the piece of paper which had writing on. He sighed "It's from a girl, I can tell you that now." he said, seeing how the writing was neat and not scruffy like boys writing.

He began reading it.

Hey Ross,

No doubt you're probably wondering who the hell I am and why you've gotten a letter from me. But, you'll know who I am once I get to the end. Or maybe you'll figure it out before you even get to the end haha.

Ross was tempted to look at the end of the letter where the person signed their name but decided not too for some reason. He felt slightly suspicious about this letter. He continued reading.

I thought I'd start off by thanking you for what you did back in January for me. Getting my Dad arrested really helped me out a whole lot. He got found guilty and sent to prison which meant I got to keep Taylor and she didn't go to Utah with James. And because my Dad got arrested, that meant I was entitled to the money my Mom left me when she died so I managed to pick myself back up and fen for myself and look after Taylor without worries. I really can't thank you enough for that.

No way.

Ross lifted his head and his eyes were wide a little bit. More in shock and confusement, but he felt a little excitement and happiness inside of him. It couldn't be her...

Could it?

I want you to do me a favour right now. Look at the book Brad's reading.

What the hell. How did she know about the book?

Ross turned his head and looked at the book, not seeing anything special about it.

Ask him about it. Just ask him what it's about, the characters etc and if he likes it.

Ross kept tight hold of the letter as he knew if anybody else on the table got hold of it they'd take it and read it "So er, Brad," Ross said, making Brad look at him "what's the book about?" he asked "and characters too..."

Brad raised his eye brows at Ross, giving him a funny look. Why was he so suddenly interested in the book for? Brad turned it around and looked at the back where it told you what it was about "Um... long story short because I can't be bothered to read out the back," he said, putting it back down normally "it's about a zombie apocalypse."

"A what..." Ross said, his face falling and it going pale. Ashton turned his head to Ross, feeling suspicious himself, and seeing Ross's face.

"A zombie apocalypse," Brad repeated slowly "yeah. I'm sure there's more too it. It tells you the characters at the front," he said, quickly flipping to the front. "Owen, Oliver, Yvette, Lee and Ianto. Least, they're the five main characters, but there's other characters too who have a link with them or come into the story later," he looked over to them, but this only made Ross and Ashton feel more suspicious and slightly scared "with Owen and Oliver, they've got three friends, Ryan, Kyle and..." Brad laughed "oh, god, there's a character called Ashton in this story."

Ross looked at Ashton and Ashton almost spat out his drink. "And Yvette, she has two friends, Adam and Alexa, and some little girl called Annie. A lot of A's... and Lee had Oscar and Riley, and Ianto had Adele," Brad looked up at Ross with a sarcastic smile "does that satisfy you now?" he asked.

Ross turned his attention back to the letter.

Noticed anything about it and the characters? Probably. But in case you're too stupid enough to not be able to figure it out, I'll spell it out for you and give you a large hint.

Ross. Rocky. Rydel. Ellington. Riker. Brad. Luke. Ashton. James. Maia. Taylor. Connor. Tristan. Laura.

"Oh, I could kill her..." Ross said out loud, reading on.

Now for the next thing I want you to do. Ask Brad this: who wrote the book.

'Oh, I've got a pretty good fucking idea' Ross thought to himself. He turned to Brad "So, Brad. Who wrote the book?" Ross asked.

Brad looked up from it, giving Ross a suspicious look "Why are you so interested in the god damn book? It's just a book. If you wanna read it, knock yourself out. Tell me what happens, then I can tell my Mum I read it." he said, sliding it to him.

Ross picked up the book and turned it to the front where the authors name was: Rydel McVey.

Oh dear.

I know you're probably wondering why I used McVey as my last name. Well, the only other last name I had is my Dad's and I don't like my Dad as you know and I don't know what my Mom's original last name was. So, James let me use his.

You know, Ross. It's kinda funny how you think I would have forgotten about something like the apocalypse. I'm just glad you stopped it. That book, that was my way of getting back in contact with you because I knew someone like Brad, Luke, Ashton or Rocky was going to end up with it, and it ended up being Brad. You can pretty much guess what the stories about I suppose.

It's about everything that happened to us in the apocalypse on them 9 days. Except, the places are different. It's not LA to Utah it's from another city to a different state with a desert. I won't spoil. I'll let you read it or let Brad tell you. I ain't no spoiler whore. I won't do that to you.

Don't ask me how I remembered. I kinda woke up one day in February and I was thinking way too hard about a dream I had the night before and suddenly everything came rushing back to me. Oh by the way, you're welcome for me killing myself so you could get past the zombies and save the world. No need to thank me for it.

Sarcasm.

You know, Riker and Ellington some times come into the store. At least that's what Maia tells me, I don't work there any more. I got her to make sure they left with a book each and they did. They complained to Maia telling her that they'd been having enough dreams about a zombie apocalypse and they didn't need a book to read about one.

Sadly they don't remember. Something tells me they never will. Maybe the apocalypse was truly scarring for them so they don't remember.

But yeah. I'll keep this last bit short.

I hope your doing well at that Utah base. I'm still living in LA in a nice little apartment near to the store I use to work at. I think you know which apartment building too (hint hint). But hey, I'm just a random girl you picked up on your way to save the world. Also, I know you prevented Ashton's death. Normally when people die over seas like that it's somewhere in the news and I saw nothing of an Ashton Irwin being killed, so good job buddy. Brownie points for you.

Ross let a soft laugh escape from his lips.

Also, tell him I hope he and Luke are happy. Or Luke. I don't know. I have the feeling you've told one of them about the apocalypse and what happened.

Ross slid the letter over to Ashton and pointed out that sentence. Ashton read it and smiled before letting Ross go back to reading the rest of it.

Tell Rocky that Maia's at the store waiting for him to get back so she can flirt with him for another five minutes before he has to leave again. And yes, that is basically my blessing telling Rocky that he and Maia can date and be fuck buddies – as he called Luke and Ashton many... many times – for as long as they like.

"Hey, Rocky," Ross said, Rocky turned to him "that girl Maia from the store in LA is free to date. Go for it dude." now Ross started to confuse everyone and make them suspicious on what was on the letter he was reading. Rocky tried peaking over his shoulder but Ross pushed him away.

I mean... I don't know if Brad's looking for anybody. Probably not. He's got you. That's enough if I'm honest. Not that I'm calling you both gay or anything, I know your not. But yeah. I just ruined the joke. Gosh. I'm sorry. But yeah, if Brad's looking for someone I'm sure I can hook him up or let him find someone to hook up with.

I know you're coming back to LA some time soon. And I know for a fact you're going to be bringing Rocky, Brad, Ashton and Luke with you because if you don't I will be a very disappointed girl.

Besides... you know where to find me now any time you like. Right? :)

Love, Rydel

Oh, and by the way... I'm still holding you to that word ;)

Ross smirked, remembering when Rydel 'held him' to that word.

"Why did you come in here?" Rydel asked.

"Because... um... me and brother... we needed food... not just for now, but because we're-"

"Taking a road-trip to Utah that could take you eight days by foot or eight hours driving to the Escalante Desert to some military base to save everyone," Rydel finished off for him, playing with the gun in she had in her hand. She averted her attention to Ross, looking at him "sounds fun." she smiled.

Ross gave Rydel a confused look "How do you know?"

Rydel laughed, sitting on the counter properly with both legs dangling "You know that feeling you've been getting about somebody following you?" Rydel asked, Ross stared at Rydel blankly "yeah... that was me." she said in a whispered tone, smiling before jumping down off the counter to both feet, leaving the gun on the counter.

Ross nodded, slightly impressed at how sneaky she was "I know a military base that could do with someone like you. You know, if it was still open and well... this zombie apocalypse wasn't happening..."

"I'll hold you to that word," Rydel said, arms folded, leaning forwards slightly.

Ross stuffed the letter back into the envelope as best as he could and into his back pocket before jumping "Alright guys, I'm off." He said.

Rocky furrowed his brow in confusement "Where to?"

"Home. LA, I probably won't come back alone," Ross said, walking away from the table – soon having Rocky following him and then Brad, Luke and Ashton following soon after wondering what the hell Ross was playing at.

"Why are you going back to LA?" Rocky asked, following Ross through the base.

Ross shrugged "Just feel like it. A little break. Need one. So do you guys actually," Ross said, turning round and walking backwards "do you wanna come with?" he asked, they all looked confused. Everyone but Ashton did anyway. "Alright suit yourself's, I offered." Ross turned round and walked forwards again.

Brad did his best to catch up to Ross. He couldn't so he had to run and jump in front of him "What's brought all this on for?" Brad asked "why do you wanna go back home? One moment you were depressed, the next moment you're as happy as a gay person – no offence you two," Brad said, quickly looking at Luke and Ashton and then back to Ross "so what's going on now? Why the sudden mood change?" he asked.

Ashton sighed. He respected that Ross didn't want to tell Luke, Brad and Rocky what he told him merely 5 minutes ago, but it wouldn't hurt mentioning a small part of it. "It's a girl." Ashton said.

Rocky turned his head quickly to Ross "It's a what?"

Ross sighed "Thank you Ashton. Thank you very much." He said sarcastically before pushing Brad out of his way and proceeded to the exit of the base.

Rocky laughed, chasing after Ross with the others following "No way dude! Since when did you get in contact with a girl! I always thought you were gonna turn out gay!" he said, almost like he was proud of Ross.

Ross stopped when he heard that, turning around and sending Rocky a death glare "Dude. I am not dating her, she is not dating me. All I said was that I'm going home for a little break. Feel free to tag along if you like." He said, adding small lies, before he pulled the doors opened and exited.

The four boys followed him, mainly because they wanted to know more and were actually debating on whether or not to have a little break and go back to LA with Ross. "But wait," Luke said, stopping as they were now outside the base where other people were leaving to go home or were coming back "you can't just... leave. Don't you have to go tell Will or someone you're taking a little break?"

Ross smiled "Aw, how sweet of you to offer to do that for me, Luke."

Ashton rolled his eyes and sighed "Oh, just let him go. He'll suffer the consequences of his actions when he gets back. That's not our problem." he said, like he didn't care. He didn't care to be honest. All Ashton wanted was to see Ross get out of his depressed state he had been in for months, and return back to his usual self. And ever since he's received that letter it appears he's become happier.

"Thanks Ash." Ross said, turning around. That was when he saw one of his friends getting into his car "Oh, hey wait! Marty!" he ran over to him "are you going home?" he asked, Marty nodded "where do you live?"

"In a town outside of LA."

Ross shrugged "Eh, close enough, I'll get a taxi or train. Can you give me a lift please?" He asked.

Brad looked around, waiting for Rocky, Ashton or Luke to protest against Ross going but nobody was. "Is anybody going to stop him?!" he asked.

Luke shook his head "Nope." "Eh." Ashton replied with a shrug at the same time.

Brad turned to Rocky who also looked like he didn't give a shit either. In fact, he looked almost proud. Rocky looked at Brad and shrugged himself "Hey, it's girl. I never thought this day would come for him, I'm proud. I say go for it!" Rocky said, throwing his hands up in the air like he was cheering Ross on.

Brad groaned, turning to face the car Ross hopped into "You're going to leave me on my own with these guys for god knows how long? Wait... how long are you going for?" he asked.

Ross shrugged "I don't know. A week. Two at the most. Maybe a month."

Brad's mouth dropped open, beginning to run over to the car to drag Ross out of it to stop him from going "Don't you dare!"

"MARTY DRIVE!" Ross shouted as Brad took off towards the car, and Marty did as he was told and slammed his foot down on the pedal where the car took off towards the gates and out of them, where Ross would in fact be going home.

Brad stopped running and turned back round, facing the other three. Rocky let out a soft laugh "Guess you're not going to be the bride walking down the aisle after all." He joked, making Luke and Ashton laugh.

Brad picked up the nearest pebble off the floor and threw it at Rocky for the stupid joke. And it hit Rocky straight in the forehead. "I'm gonna fucking rip your head off and feed it to the wild dogs Simpson!" Rocky shouted, going after him to try tackle him. Brad ran off trying to get away from him.

"Oh dear..." Luke said, watching with Ashton as Rocky chased Brad "how the hell are we supposed to keep them two from killing each other with Ross gone?" Luke asked.

Ashton shrugged, seeing Rocky tackle Brad to the ground "I don't know... but it should be interesting... Ross may come back to only two friends instead of four."

Luke laughed and turned back to watching Rocky and Brad fight on the floor.

Yes, this was definitely going to be interesting indeed.

The End.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR OVER 300 REVIEWS ON THIS! Bye, bye for now! :)

ALSO: I'm in the middle of making a Ross/Brad/Rocky/Luke/Ashton video so keep an eye out for that on my YouTube Channel (WOWPZaileyStories101) It's a video tribute to them in general, but I am trying to make references to this story too with it. I mean, the lyrics themself make references to the story anyway haha

But yeah, I'll let you all go now! :) Bye bye!
