together we will be unbroken

We get back to my apartment at midnight. "I am so tired." CC walks into the back of the couch and falls face first into it. I just smile and laugh.

"I''m pretty worn out too." Ronnie mumbles.

"Alright, well you guys do you, and I'm going to play Jake on CoD." I smile.

"Has he beat you yet?" Andy smiles.

"No and he never will." I beam. I grab my headset and log into my Xbox.

"Come to get your ass whooped eh Tum?" Jake teases.

"Psh in your dreams!" I laugh.

"Good night Tum." Andy pats my shoulders.

"Wait!" I jump up and give him a hug.

"Now's my chance!" Jake exclaims.

"Now goodnight Tum?" Andy smiles.

"Now goodnight Tum." I grin. I plop back onto the couch. "Jesus Jake you still haven't found me yet?"

"No where the fuck are you?"

"Try the airplane." I get my machine gun ready.

"I'm by the airplane." He whines.

"Inside the plane Love." I smile.

"I feel like this is a trap."

"Your feeling would be correct." I state.

"Alright, well I'm just going to chill outside the plane until you come out."

"Sounds good to me." I put my feet up on the coffee table.

"So I take it the guys are there."

"Yeah they got here yesterday." I look over at my piano, and feel a pull.

"God I wish I could have gone." He sighs. "I tried to get tickets but all of the flights were booked."

"aw that's sweet." I smile. Come play me. My piano whispers. Tum, don't be stupid pianos can't talk. It's just you wanting to play.

"We really miss you Tum. I think Ashley is taking it the hardest though. Well maybe it's the fact that he is living with Kina..."

"I've heard she's quite the girlfriend." I say.

"Oh yeah, she's a real catch." He laughs. "Ash is just going crazy. She is with him ever second of every day, and he's been drinking more, like to the point of passing out."

"That's really scary Jake." I state. My insides cave.

"Yeah I know. We try to talk him out of it but he won't listen. A few times I've heard him mumble something about a rose and it's really freaking me out."

"What?" I choke.

"I don't know man. I just hope this stops soon. Maybe you could talk some sense into him, you're good at that."

"I don't think anyone can talk sense into Ashley." Is he really mumbling about me?

"Good point.." He says. He sounds like a downcast cloud, and it makes me sad. "I just can't wait for all of this crap to blow over. It's really effecting all of us."

"I can tell..." I have to lighten the mood. I'm sick of being sad. I creep out of the plane and stand behind Jake's avatar. "Hey Jake."

"Yeah Tum?"

"Turn around." I start shooting and i see my kill meter tick up to one.

"Oh come on Tum that's so low!" He laughs.

"It's guerilla warfare Love." I smile.
