Counting The Stars and Scars

*Max's POV*

By the time we reached Mike's room tears were already threatening to fall thanks to what just happened, I sat on the end of his bed where my overnight bag was, I put my head in my hands and slumped over thinking about Jaime and I's conversation, "Are you okay, princess?" Mike asked, I shook my head and inwardly blushed at the nickname he used for me, I heard him sigh as he sat next to me and held me in his arms hushing me as I couldn't help but cry, I could feel myself starting to fall asleep in his touch so I got up and walked to his en suite, getting changed into my pyjamas and taking all my makeup off, when I went back through Mike was stripping down to his boxers, I stood silently as I watched him strip off and climb into bed, he has a good body, I walked back through shoving my clothes in my bag. I heard a wolf whistle as I bent down to put my bag on the floor and flipped him off, I climbed on the bed and started crawling up to the empty side, accidentally waving my ass in his face, "I could get used to this" He said giving it a smack, "Hush Michael" I said, flicking his forehead, "That hurt" he said pouting and pretending to be hurt, "Aww I'm sorry" I said as I nuzzled my face into his bare chest, we lay there as we heard the party dying down, it was 2am and I think everyone was leaving as I heard the door open and close quite a few times, my mind raced with thoughts from earlier and I started to get anxious as I knew that Jaime and I would have to talk about this, I sighed and closed my eyes, I could feel Mike playing with my hair, that made me fall asleep even faster.

I woke up at 9am after nearly getting crushed by Mike, I didn't bother waking him up I just gently slid out of his grasp and pulled on a pair of his skinny sweatpants, making my way downstairs I saw a couple people passed out but no sign of Jaime, Tony however was curled up on the couch with a duvet watching TV, I walked down the stairs and he opened his arms to me, I climbed in beside him, he was warm and felt safe, which I liked, "Sorry f I said anything to you last night, I can't remember anything apart from you giving me Winter, Mike beating Ben and you beating up that blonde bitch" he laughed I looked at him, "No, we didn't really speak much, I was busy with trying to get Mike not to beat up Ben and getting that Blonde bitch off Jaime as well as have a couple arguments with him?! I lied about the not really speaking bit because I knew he was embarrassed that he liked me I didn't want to make it worse, he nodded and kissed my forehead before turning his attention back to the TV. The next to wake was Vic who joined us on the couch and then Mike who also joined us on the couch by spreading himself out along all three of us, by the time it reached 12pm there was still no sign of Jaime, I turned to Vic who just shrugged, "He's probably still sleeping?" He said, I nodded but I couldn't help but worry about him, I mean yeah what he said to me last night hurt but I had a restless night without him next to me despite him being more drunk than Mike. I decided to cook all the guys hangover brunch I made pancakes, bacon, sausage and eggs, I poured some OJ and water into two different juice jugs and set the plates and cups on the island.

I called everyone in for brunch, I hadn't realized that Jaime had finally come down the stairs until he walked into the kitchen with a gloomy and sad look on his face, he gave me a faint smile before sitting down and eating, he didn't talk at all and he didn't look up once, I felt so bad for him but I knew I had to stand my ground, the guys thanked me for brunch and went back through to the living room, apart from Jaime, he just sat there staring at me as I pondered around the kitchen cleaning up after everyone, "Tea? Coffee?" I asked as I sat down with my tea, he shook his head no and smiled at me, "So..." I started, he looked at me with a sad expression, "Max I am so sorry. I was completely out of line last night, I didn't mean a word I said. I already apologized to Mike before you say anything, but I truly am sorry and I love you so much, I never meant to hurt you or make you cry" He said nearly crying himself, "It's okay" I said, he looked up and smiled a massive grin across his face, "But I don't want it to happen again, Mike and I are just friends and you know that?" I said telling him off a little, he nodded and smiled getting up and hugging me tightly, "Now you can make it up to me by taking me shopping for baby clothes today, I also want to clean out my parents bedroom and make it a nursery for this little one" I said, kissing him he nodded again darting upstairs to get a shower and get dressed, he is some boy, I'll give him that.
