~Eternal Blood~ **Chapter 15**

Phillips POV

            I could hear moaning and then I heard Ryan’s voice. Oh god, Meghan! I found myself laughing silently and I put my arms around his waist.

            He was sleeping when I crawled into his bunk but he had woken up and smiled at me when I kissed his cheek.

            I started to fall asleep to the sound of Ryan gasping, diirty.

            I woke up with a startle as Jon was pushing me out of his bunk, “Get out!” he whispered loudly. “What the hell are you doing in here?”

            I laughed, “Alright…I’m leaving.”

            As I left he grabbed my arm, “It’s just…” he looked away and I knew he was talking about his band mates.

            I gave him a cool smile, “Don’t worry…I get it.” I said and was about to leave but he pulled me in for a kiss.

            I turned and let him kiss my cheek, “You should tell them.” I said with a shrug and walked out of the bunk area.

            The sun was still coming out so I decided to go back to sleep. I found an empty bunk and fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow. I should turn Jon over.

Ryan’s POV

            I woke up and felt a body next to mine, “good morning.” Meghan said as she kissed my cheek. “How are you feeling?”

            I shrugged, “I don’t remember anything that happened after we…you know…” I said with a smirk.

            She smiled, “I know…you’ll understand soon enough.”

            I gave her an odd look, “Okay…”

            “Let’s get up.” she suggested and climbed out of the bunk. I followed her out and we walked out and sat down on the couch next to Spencer.

            “How did you sleep?” Spencer asked Meghan.

            She grinned, “Wonderfully.”

            He nodded, “Most people don’t sleep well there first time on the road.” he replied and offered us the box of cereal he was eating.

            “Nah, I’m good.” I replied.

            Phillip came running into the room like a little kid, “Okay who missed me?” he yelled in a loud voice.

            We all looked at him like he was an alien, “Dude…do you realize that it is still morning!?!” I asked. “Most people don’t start yelling until mid-afternoon.”

            He put a finger to his lips, “Sorry.” he whispered. “So where are the rest of the happy campers?”

            We all shrugged, “Still sleeping.”

            “Maybe we should wake them up.” he suggested.

            Meghan objected, “No…you know Taryn’s not exactly a morning person and she had a rough night.”

            “Maybe you should go check on her…” I suggested.

            “What happened to her?” Phillip asked.

            Meghan shrugged him off and went to the bunks. I sighed, “We’re not really sure what happened. She was upset…that’s all.” I replied, not really sure how to explain what had happened.

            Meghan came back into the room, “She’s still asleep but she looks fine.”

            “Still breathing?” I asked.

            She nodded, “Yes she’s still breathing.”

            I sat down beside Ryan and he slipped his fingers through mine; I turned to him and smiled. I saw the two little wholes in his neck where I had bit him. I hope no one else sees it.

            “Wanna go for a walk?” Ryan whispered in my ear.

            I nodded, “Yes.” and we both walked off the bus after explaining to Phillip that we were just gonna go outside for a bit.

            “So…I really do like you Meghan.” Ryan started to say.

            I have to admit I was feeling a bit…what’s the perfect word…um, like a slut? I had just met Ryan yesterday and I’ve already slept with him. “Wait Ryan…I’ve got to clear something up.”

            He nodded, “Okay…what is it?”

            He led us over to a bench and we sat down together, “Well…I don’t want you to have the impression that I’m…well that I’m a slut. Because I’m not, I mean my behaviour last night may have showed otherwise….but it’s just that I felt this really strong connection and I got lost in it all and we…well you know. But I’m not saying I regret it…I’m not saying that at all; I’m just saying that I don’t usually move that fast.” I said trying my best to make sense.

            He had been listening intently as I talked and squeezed my hand when I finished, “Meghan, I don’t think you’re a slut.” he said, “I don’t normally move that fast either but there definitely is a connection between us. I think I got caught up in it too and I wouldn’t have done it any other way. I really like you and I don’t think of this as a one night stand or anything…” he paused. “What I’m trying to say is, will you be my girlfriend?”

            My eyes widened and I felt a smile spread across my lips, “Yes…of course.” I replied and gave him a quick kiss on the lips.

            “Okay…but hold on. There’s more…” he said.

            I gave him a confused look, “Okay?”

            “Well just listen up because this is my schedule for the next little while; okay, so we have a few shows left…they’re like pre-album shows. And then our album will come out and then we’ll have like no time off and we’ll be going on tour.” he explained.

            I nodded, “Okay. I understand, you’re a busy guy.”

            He smiled, “Yeah but I mean…if this lasts, if we’re still together. I can always take you on tour with me.” he told me.

            I grinned, “Wow…that would be soo cool.”

Taryn’s POV

            I woke up and it was very quiet; sadly I could remember everything that had happened last night. I even remembered being tucked in by Brendon; which I guess really wasn’t all that bad of a memory.

            I reluctantly stepped out of the bunk and onto the floor. I didn’t feel like running into anyone right now. I walked slowly enough; trying my best not to make a sound. I was about to enter the bathroom as Brendon came out.

            I tried to keep my surprise inside my head and not let it slip out onto my face. “Hey you’re awake. Are you okay?” he asked lightly.

            I shrugged, “Yeah…I think I’m gonna be okay.”

            He nodded, “I’m glad to hear that…” I looked past him at the bathroom and he quickly stepped to the side, “It’s all yours.”

            I smiled weakly, “Thanks.”

            I walked into the cramped bathroom and closed the door; perfect, just the guy I was hoping to avoid. I splashed water on my face and cleaned it with the washcloth beside the sink. I opened the door carefully and looked out into the bunk area; I was alone.

            I sighed and walked to the front of the bus; that was a mistake. Brendon was standing by the fridge and was taking out a water bottle. I tried to make my escape, “Hey.” I heard him say before I could get away.

            I turned back around and said, “Where is everybody?”

            “They’re eating…” he replied, “We stopped at a diner for lunch…apparently it’s already lunch time.”

            I nodded, “Oh.”

            “So are you gonna go?” he asked expectantly.

            “Um-I’m not really in the mood for lunch.” I told him and turned to leave.
            “Wait…I’m not going either.” he started to say, “I kind of thought we could maybe…you know talk…?”

            I smiled, “Yeah…that’d be great. It’s just that I’m really uncomfortable in these clothes and I’d really like—”

            “I could lend you some of my clothes.” he said and walked past me to fetch me some clothes.

            I tried to object, “No…it’s okay I just wanted to change because these clothes were a little dirty from last night…” I started but he handed me a t-shirt and skinny jeans.

            He smiled, “They prolly won’t fit you but…I won’t make you go out in public wearing them. You can stay secluded on the bus.”

            I surprised Brendon and myself by laughing and saying, “Why thank you, Mr. Urie.” I felt my cheeks go red as he stared down at me with a crooked smile on his lips.

            “Yeah, no problem.” he said.

            I awkwardly stepped around him and walked to the washroom to change. I came out with his clothes on and stood in front of him.

            He was sitting on the couch and looked up at me as I walked in, “How do I look?” I asked.

            “Great,” he replied and patted the spot beside him, “So can we talk now?”

            I sighed and sat down beside him, “Sure.”

            He looked into my eyes with a look of concern, “Look…I’m really sorry about last night. I’m really sorry if I did something wrong. It’s just that I wanted you to know how I felt about you and even though the circumstances were pretty difficult I really started to like you. And I wanted you to know that. But then you ran off and I felt really bad because I knew it was all my fault so I just want you to know that I’m sorry.” he said, “Sorry I was kind of rambling.”

            I couldn’t help it; the guilt was sitting in the pit of my stomach and I just couldn’t stop but feel horrible. I reached out for his hand, “Brendon.” I started, “It wasn’t your fault at all; I mean I like you too.” I said; trying my best to make some sense of this, “It was just that I was feeling really sick and I had this rush of emotions that just kind of came over me…so I ran off. It wasn’t your fault at all…and now I’m rambling.”

            He smiled, “Are you sure…because I’ll understand, I mean of course I’ll be disappointed but I’ll understand and we can—” I grinned and cut him off by kissing him lightly on the lips, but letting my lips linger over his for a few seconds too long. I pulled away and felt myself blushing.

            I made myself keep eye contact with him and said, “Its okay.”

            He grinned, “Okay…” he replied. “So would you like to go out with me tonight…you know, like on a date?”

            My eyes glimmered and I kissed him again; maybe I shouldn’t have but I couldn’t help it. I was so terrible last night and I just felt so greedy this morning. I pulled away and nodded at him, unable to conger up a one worded answer.

            “Yes?” he asked and I nodded again. “Okay then.” But I guess I wasn’t the only one who was greedy this morning because he knelt his head down and kissed me. I responded right away and was kissing him back.
            Brendon and I were having awesome kissing. It was amazing; his lips were amazing. Everything was amazing. I could barely remember what a terrible night I had last night and how this was the guy that I was planning on avoiding all day.

            When his tongue had reached this inside of my mouth I felt my toes curl and I had this weird sensation coming from the pit of my stomach.

            He slowly pulled away and said, “They’re coming back.” He pulled back the curtain and saw everyone walking towards the bus.

            I’m not sure how he heard them because all I could concentrate on was his lips and how great they felt on mine and the amazing sparks flying off of my lips.

            My lips were on fire and I didn’t want his lips off of mine. No, I wanted more. But I just sat back and waited for everyone to join us on the bus.

            Brendon smiled and pecked me one last time as everyone came running onto the bus. That’s when I noticed that I still had my hand gripped around his hand; I quickly pulled it away and he laughed at me. He laughed. At me!

            I glared at him and was enveloped in Meghan’s arms, “Are you okay?” she asked as she pulled away and ran her fingers through my hair.

            I gave her a confused look but then remembered what she was talking about, “Oh yeah I’m fine.” I said.

            “What happened to you last night?” Ryan asked.

            I gave an awkward glance at Meghan and then looked at Brendon. He was looking at me too and as soon as our eyes made contact I felt comforted. “Nothing,” I replied.

            Ryan looked at me sceptically, “Seriously? Because you looked pretty upset last night, what did Brendon do to you?” he said as a joke but Brendon took it pretty seriously.

            “She doesn’t want to talk about.” he said.

            I smiled and said, “It was nothing.”

            Meghan gave me a look then gave the same one to Brendon, “Okay then…” she replied and let me go.

            She walked over to Ryan and dragged him out to the bunks area. Phillip sat down beside me, taking Meghan’s place. “I can see it in your eyes.” he whispered with a smirk on his face.

            “You can see what?” I asked in the same whisper.

            He gave me a smirk, “Nothing…you’ve got nothing to worry about, if you want to keep it a secret than I won’t tell anyone.”

            I rolled my eyes, “Thanks Phil.”

            He laughed and walked away. Brendon gave me a look, “You’re really pretty.” He whispered in my ear.

            I giggled like a little girl and kissed his cheek, “Thanks.” I whispered back.

Spencer’s POV

            The bus broke down. Can you believe it? Yep. I can.

            Luckily there was a hotel across the street so we all ran across and booked a few rooms for the night.

            Joe; the bus driver, said that it wouldn’t be fixed by tonight so he suggested we go and book a few rooms. No one seemed to have a problem with this, except for me.

            I don’t know why I had a problem with it; maybe it was the fact that Phillip seemed to have an eye on Jon and I couldn’t stand it. I was jealous and wasn’t gonna let him take him away from me.

            “How many rooms are we getting?” Ryan asked as we walked into the air condition building.

            “Um, well if everyone doubles up with someone else then we’ll need,” Jon quickly counted the people with us. “Four…yeah four.” he replied. “Everyone cool with sharing with someone else?”

            Everyone nodded but Taryn said, “But…there’s seven of us…doesn’t that mean one of us will be on our own.”

            “Nope, you forgot to count Joe.” Jon corrected her.

            “Okay then I’ll go book the rooms.” Ryan said and walked over to the counter and spoke to the lady. He paid for the room and she handed him the room keys. “Alright…well since I paid for the rooms I get first dibs.” he said with a smirk.

            We all shrugged, “I guess that’s fair.” Jon replied.

            “Meghan? Do you mind being my roommate for the night?” he asked as he pulled her close to him. She smiled up at him and kissed him on the cheek.

            “Okay… I guess they get the first room.” I said and took the other three keys from Ryan’s hand. I knew I had to speak up now or else I wouldn’t get my choice, “I guess I’ll take second dibs…I’ll bunk up with Jon.” I said as casually as I could.

            Brendon smiled, “That sounds great with me.” He snatched one of the keys from me, “I guess that leaves…Taryn, Phillip, Joe and myself.”

            I didn’t care where they were sleeping I was just glad that I had the room with Jon. Now I could finally get some time alone with him.
