Quick A/N: If anyone knows anyone who makes story covers, could you give me the hookup? This story is on twenty two chapters and I feel like it needs a better cover than the crap I've got at the minute. Thanks!

Josh arrived fifteen minutes later, as promised.

"Hey josh! How's it going?" I asked excitedly.

"Eh, it's alright. Sup, Oli. I heard you're going through some shit right now"

"How did you know?"

"Oh, y'know, my Oli sense was tingling" josh said with a completely straight face.

"You mean me, I'm the Oli sense" I laughed. Tony looked totally confused,

"Tony, this is josh. Josh, my friend Tony. We are going down to the stream, we'll leave you to catch up" I said, grabbing Tony by the arm and marching down the hill.

"You okay? Youve been quiet ever since we left the others yesterday" i asked, dipping my toes in the tiny stream.

"Can I tell you something? You really can't tell anybody"

"Of course! My lips are sealed"

"I-ah, this is awkward. I-maybe-kindOfLikeMike" he word-vomited.

"You what?" I asked, even though I knew what he said. I just adored the shade of scarlet he had turned.

"I-like-Mike"

My lips curled upwards involuntary, soon giving way to a full on grin.
My hands covered my mouth as I started to freak the fuck out.

"How do you know? What made you realise?"

"Well, your friend Oli, his wife left him and it made me think how Mike makes me feel. The room lights up whenever he walks in, my heart starts beating really hard, his smile makes my day, I would do anything for him"

My hands moved up to my hair and I grabbed my roots, silently screaming.

"What's wrong, are you okay?" He asked me.

"I'm fine, just fangirling, it'll stop in a second" I squealed.

A tear slid down Tony's face and I sobered up immediately.

"Whoa, honey, what's wrong?"

"It's just, what will this do to our friendship? It will mess up the whole band" he cried.

"No, it won't. For now, stay strong. I will fix this" I said, silently vowing to make perrentes cannon.

He nodded and stared out onto the water.

"Make a wish on our sorry little hearts
Have a smoke, pour a drink, steal a kiss in the dark
Fingernails on my skin like the teeth of a shark
I'm intoxicated by the lie" I sang gently to myself.

"In the chill of your stare I am painfully lost
Like a deer in the lights of an oncoming bus
For the thrill of your touch I will shamefully lust
As you tell me we're nothing but trouble" Tony replied.

"Heart's on fire tonight
Feel my bones ignite
Feels like war, war
Feels like war, war
Heart's on fire tonight
Feel my bones ignite
Feels like war, war
Feels like war, war

We go together or we don't go down at all
We go together or we don't go down at all
We go together or we don't go down at all, whoa" we sang together.
