Reid's Secret Life

Telling Reid about Brian.

Reid's POV "Reid? Where are you?" I heard someone say. I had a bad headache and couldn't figure out where I was. I saw someone was walking up to me, but I couldn't see who it was. "There you are. Are you OK?" It was Brian. "Where am I?" "I don't know, your Dad took you, and then took me, when I was looking for you. He's after Gary now." "Wait, did you say, my Dad took me?" "Yes." I tried to sit up, but failed. "It's OK Reid, just relax. I'm here." "No, he's going to hurt Gary." "I can't do anything about that. Your Dad has us locked in a room." "Oh no. Where is my phone, I need to call for help, before Gary gets hurt." "He took our phones, while we were passed out." "No! Get us out of here, please!" "Calm down sweetheart, it's going to be OK." "No!" I said and started crying. Gary meant a lot to me, even though he doesn't know it, yet. He was the closest to a Dad that I always wanted. Brian picked me up and held me close to him, while I cried. He gently rubbed my hair and tried to calm me down. About ten minutes later the door opened and I saw my Dad throw Gary in here. He slammed the door and locked us in. I jumped up and ran to him. I hugged him tightly and nearly knocked him over. "I'm OK Reid, I'm OK." He said, while rubbing my back. "Please tell me he didn't hurt you." "No, he didn't. But, I need to get us out of here." "Do you have your phone?" "No, I believe that was taken from me." Brian walked up to us at that point, and sat down beside Gary. "He took our phones too. And when he threw me in here, I found Reid still passed out on the floor." Gary looked at me, and pulled me close to him, and wrapped his arms around me. I hugged him and leaned my head on his chest. "My poor child. It'll be OK." Did I just hear him right? Did he really just call me his child? I looked up at him and he gently kissed my forehead. "You are my baby now, even though you aren't legally mine, yet." "What do you mean yet?" I asked. "You'll see. But, I need to get us out of here, I just don't know how." "We need to at least try." Brian said. "Good luck with that." I said. "You just wait Reid. I'll find a way out." I'll believe that, when I see it. My Dad would notice if we left. He notices everything. I held on to Gary, and he hugged me tightly. "It's alright Reid. I will get us out of here." "How? There's no way out." "I'll find a way out." "Yeah, OK." I laid my head on his shoulder and he rubbed my back. "I love you baby." "I love you too Gary." I started dozing off. He was putting me to sleep.

Gary's POV As soon as I knew Reid was asleep, I laid him down and, Brian and I were trying to find a way out of here. I wasn't dealing with this. Reid's Dad kept coming by every hour, to make sure we weren't doing anything. Brian and I would just look at each other with that annoyed look, and when he was gone, we would go back to what we were doing. Eventually one of us had found a way out. "Hey Gary, I think I found a way out." Brian said, as quietly as he could. "Good, let me get Reid, and let's go. I don't need him or I to get hurt." "I don't need that either. Let's go before he comes back. We don't have very long." "We need our phones." "Forget them, let's go." "Fine." I grabbed Reid, and we took off. Brian ran up to the van, that Reid's Dad brought us here in, and had found our phones. Brian handed me, mine and Reid's phone. I called Jay to come get us. We started walking away from the place, before Reid's Dad had realized we left. Jay showed up about thirty minutes later. He pulled up beside us and we got in. Brian sat up front and I sat in the back with Reid. "So Gary, who is your friend?" Jay asked me, about Brian. "Um, his name is Brian." "OK. Anything else?" "No." I don't know what he is thinking, but it's annoying both of us. "I'm sure that's not true, but OK." "Shut up Jay! I'm not in the mood to deal with you." "OK. Geez." I huffed and rolled my eyes. I laid Reid on my lap, and played with his hair. I was doing anything I could to keep myself calm. When we got back to our buses. I picked Reid up, and Brian and I went to my bus. I went to the back room and laid Reid on my bed. I tucked him in and went to the front lounge with Brian. I sat next to him on the couch. "He still asleep?" Brian asked. "Yes." "OK. Are you OK?" "Annoyed." "By Jay?" "Yup." "Want me to help you with that?" "No Brian. I don't." "Damn." "Nice try Brian." "It was worth a try." "Look, I put Reid in my bed in the back room, that's the only reason why I said no to you." "Oh. Why did you put him in the back room?" "It's easier." "I know. But, I want to be alone with you." "I know. But, it will have to wait." "Fine, but can we at least cuddle and watch a movie?" "I guess." "Yay!" I rolled my eyes and got up, so he could sit behind me. He sat down on the couch and I sat down, with my head against his shoulder. He put a movie on, and put a blanket over us. He wrapped his arms around me and snuggled me. I smiled. "Really Brian?" "Yes, I love you." "I love you too." He quietly laughed and started rubbing my stomach. When I ignored him, he slipped his hand under my shirt. "Really, you're not going to stop me?" "I'm ignoring you." "That doesn't help." "I know, I just want to see how far you would go." "I would go all the way, and you know that." "I may know that, but that doesn't mean I would let you." He sighed. He knew I was telling the truth. "Will you let me?" "As long as we don't get caught." "Well, you did say Reid was asleep in the back room, right?" "Yes." "Where's his girlfriend?" "Probably in their bunk." "I think we'll be fine." "I hope so. The last thing I need is us getting caught." "I know love. You tell me every time." "Well, cause it's true. I fear of getting caught, OK?" "Then stop hiding me. Just tell everyone about us, and stop this hiding. Please." "No, you know why I don't want anyone knowing about you." He sighed. I know this was upsetting him, but I have my reasons for what I do. "OK, you win. But, if you want to keep us a secret, then fine. I give up. I keep trying to convince you to let this secret out, but you won't." "Please stop Brian. I'm sorry, but I'm not brave enough to let everyone know about you. They will ruin what we have." "No they won't. They only will, if you let them." "I don't care. I'm not looking forward to that day. I don't think I would ever tell them." "Why?" "Cause, they are already giving me hell, they will just make it worse." "And, that's why you have me. To stand up for you." "Yeah, I guess. But, I'm still not telling them. I'll tell Reid, but that's as far as I'm going with it." "Fine, whatever. It sounds like he's calling for you anyway." "Oh Geez." I got up and went to go check on him. I opened the door and walked in. Sure enough he was awake, and crying. I closed the door and walked up to him. "What's wrong Baby?" "I got scared. You weren't beside me." "I know. It's OK, I was just talking to Brian." "Speaking of him, who is he really to you? I know he's more than just a friend." "He's my best friend." "Still, he's more than a Friend, and I know that. Just tell me the truth, please." "I'm not sure I'm ready to tell anyone." "Just tell me, I promise I won't tell anyone. Please trust me." I sighed. This wasn't easy trusting him. But, I knew eventually I would have to. "Fine. But, you better not tell anyone about this." "I won't, I promise." "OK. I'm trusting you, please don't make me regret this." "I won't, just tell me already." "OK. He is more than just my best friend, he's the love of my life, and he knows that." "So I was right, there is something going on between you two." "You can say that. I'm just trying to make sure that my band mates don't find out about this, it's bad enough that Jay met him." "I won't say anything. But, aren't you married?" "How do you know about that?" "Your ring, and I know he's married too." "Yeah well, it's to hide our relationship. Look, just keep this between us, OK? For me." "I will. I take it, both of your wife's doesn't know about this?" "No, they don't, and we prefer to keep it that way." "OK. I'll keep quiet about this. But, you will owe me for this." "Please, I saved you from an abusive family, what more do you want?" "I don't know, I guess I owe you this." "It's OK. You don't owe me anything. I would've done that for any child." "Can you sing a song for me, please?" "I guess. What song do you want me to sing?" "Any song, I don't care." "OK." I thought about what song I could sing. "Do you have a favorite song from us?" "Not that I know of, no." "OK. Um, oh, I know a good song I could sing to you." I laid down next to him, and he cuddled up next to me and laid his head on my shoulder. I rubbed his side and sang Mayberry to him. He fell asleep half way through the song. I tucked him in and went back to the front lounge. Brian was still laying down on the couch. "Are you still mad at me?" I asked him. "No. I assumed you told him." "Yes, I did." "What did he say?" "He kind of already knew, and he promised not to tell anyone." "OK. We'll see about that." "Really Brian? Why are you being like this? This isn't you." "I've noticed that. I may be a bit jealous." "A bit?" "Fine, I'm jealous. I don't get you all to myself anymore." "At least you can still have some alone time with me." "True. But, not as much as I use to." "I'm sorry, but, you are going to have to get use to it." He moaned. "I don't want to get use to it. I love having you all to myself." "I know. Look, I will spend as much time as I can with you, OK?" "OK." "Thank you for not arguing with me on that." "Yeah, yeah. Come here, I want to hold you." I walked up to him, and he pulled me onto his lap. He pulled the blanket over us, and wrapped his arms around my waist. "I love you Gary." "I love you too Brian." He smiled and kissed me. I pulled away, before he could start turning me on. "Why did you pull away?" "Cause I can." "Do you not want to do anything with me?" "That's not the reason." "Then, let me kiss you." "Fine, but, only this time. Next time you will wait until we are alone." "OK." I knew he would say that, but it doesn't mean he'll listen to what I said. He knows I'm serious about keeping our relationship a secret, I don't need Jay and Joe Don to start their shit with me again. They started backing off, and I don't need to have another reason for them to start up again. Brian noticed that something was bothering me, cause he gently kissed me to get my attention. "What's wrong Gary?" "Nothing, just thinking." "About?" "Don't worry about it." "How can't I worry about it? I know something is bothering you, please tell me?" "It's just, I'm nervous about doing this with you, since I don't have a door to lock, to keep us from getting caught, and I really don't need Jay and Joe Don to start their shit with me again." "They're still bothering you?" "Not lately. They started backing off, but I don't need them finding a reason to start their shit again." "OK. One, relax. It's going to be OK. Besides, you don't ever cuss this much, and two, if they do start their shit with you again, I will deal with them." "OK. But, this isn't easy for me to relax." "Need my help?" "No. You'll just turn me on." "It distracts you." "Whatever. Just do what you want, I won't fight you. Honestly, I do need to calm down." "That's what I thought." He kissed me deeply, and ran his hand down my spine. That gave me chills, and he knew it, cause he smiled and did it again. "Getting turned on yet?" He said in a teasing way. "Oh shut up." He laughed and kissed me deeply again. I couldn't control myself anymore. I moaned when he kissed me. He just laughed, and started undressing me. I undressed him, and we went at it, hard. *30 minutes later* "Can't breathe?" Brian asked, in a teasing way. "No." He laughed and held me close to him. "It's OK, just take deep breaths." "I know that, but it's easier said than done." He laughed again and hugged me tightly. "I love you." "Love you too." He kissed my head and rubbed my back. I started falling asleep. I was tired, and it seemed like Brian was trying to put me to sleep. He was softly rubbing my hair, and my back. I kept trying to fight the sleepiness off, but I couldn't. Mainly cause he wouldn't stop. I ended up falling asleep. *2 hours later* I woke up to Brian yelling. I looked at him and he was on the phone with someone. I listened to the conversation. He was talking to his wife. This can't be good. Eventually he got tired of dealing with her and hung up. "Is everything OK?" I asked. "No. My wife is upset with me because she wanted me home. Yet, she is just realizing that I left. I told her that I wasn't going to be home for a while." "What did she say?" "She said that she didn't care, she wanted me home now. But, I told her no. She kept arguing with me, so I hung up on her." "Wow." "Yeah, I got fed up with her." "I'm sorry love." "Don't be, it's OK. It's not like you can do anything about it." "Yeah, well, this is the reason why I'm avoiding my wife. She's the same way." "I know. I've heard a few of y'all's conversations. They didn't sound very good." "They weren't. It's gotten to the point where I told her not to call me, unless it was an emergency. My girls stay in contact with me, especially when she gets on to them for no reason." "Poor kids. Do you want to bring them on the road with you?" "I do, but only when they have breaks from school." "Oh, right. I forgot about that." "I know you did, and it's OK. It's not like you're with me when they are." "Yeah, to keep them from finding out about me." "I don't care anymore. It's not like they're going to tell." "They better not, and I mean it. I don't need us getting in trouble." "I know, I know. You don't have to remind me." "I know, but I had to." "Yeah, I know you did." He just smiled and hugged me. I don't know why he likes annoying me, but he does. I just rolled my eyes and laid my head back down on his chest. "You aren't going back to sleep, are you?" "No, I'm just loving on you." I said sarcastically. "OK smart-ass. I was being serious." "I'm tired, you drained my energy." "I figured you would be fine by now." "Oh shut up." "I'm just saying love, I do worry about you." "I know you do. But, I'm fine." "I hope so. But, I'm keeping an eye on you." "OK. That's fine, I don't care." "Good. You better not, cause either way, I'm going to." I rolled my eyes and just ignored him. *Next Day* "Gary, Your child is calling for you." I groaned, got dressed and went to check on him. "Yes baby." I said, walking into the backroom. "Lay with me, please." "Why, what's wrong?" I closed the door and walked up to him. He looked like he had been crying. "I had a nightmare, and I was scared that it wasn't." "It was just a dream, relax." "Please lay with me." "OK." I laid down next to him, and pulled him close. "It's going to be OK Baby. I promise." He snuggled into my side, and went back to sleep. I rubbed his side, and played with his hair. Brian walked in the room, after Reid had fallen asleep. "Is he OK?" Brian asked. "Yes, he's fine. He just had a nightmare. That's all." "OK, can we go lay down in the front lounge again?" "If I can get up, without waking him." I didn't even get a chance to try and get up. Brian walked up to me, and picked me up. I giggled and held on to him. He carried me to the front lounge and laid me down on the couch. He laid next to me and started rubbing my stomach. "I love you Gary." "I love you too. But, you need to stop being so jealous." "I can't help it. I've never had to share you before." "It's going to be OK. It's not going to kill you to share me. Besides, he's a kid. He needs me, just as much as you do." "Yeah, I know, but I don't like this." "Just try, please." "OK. I'll try, but no promises." "I knew you would say that. I'm going back with Reid. I don't need him waking up." "No Gary, stay with me, please." "Really Brian?" "Yes, I want you next to me." "Are you going to stop being jealous?" "I'll try. I promise, but don't leave me." "Fine." I turned on my side, with my back facing him. He wrapped his arms around me and held me close. I sighed to myself and let him hold me. I don't think he'll stop being jealous of Reid, and that's not something I'll be able to handle. I fell asleep and dreamt about Reid. I was worried about him. I know Reid won't be very happy about this, but I don't want to lose either one of them because of it. When I woke up it was nearly 5 o'clock. How long was I asleep? I got up, and went to check on Reid. He was laying in bed, awake. But, he looked depressed. I walked up to him and gently rubbed his side. "What's wrong Reid?" "You weren't next to me, when I woke up." "I'm sorry, I was with Brian." "You're always with him. I just wanted you with me, for once." "I'm sorry, but I'm trying to make this work for both of you. But, it doesn't help that you both are jealous of each other, it doesn't make things easier on me." He looked at me with sadness in his eyes. I knew I had over done it, but I was getting annoyed with both of them being jealous. I was a little pissed as well. But I was trying not to take it out on him. "I warned you from the start, that I was a hassle to take care of, yet you still took me in." "Cause, I know how it feels to be in your situation Reid. I couldn't leave you there, I had to save you." "From what? The abuse that I had dealt with my whole life? Yeah, like that's going to change anything. It's only going to make things worse, and he's going to start hurting you too." "I don't care, it's you I care about. Not him, and I don't care if he hurts me. It's better me, then you." "Not really. But whatever you say. I'm done arguing." "Whatever, I'm leaving." I walked out the room, and out of the bus. I took off as far as I could, and was gone for three hours, before someone decided to look for me. I didn't care if anyone even looked for me, I was so pissed off, and annoyed. "Gary, why did you take off? I was worried about you, when you weren't in the back with Reid." I heard Brian say. "Cause, I'm tired of you both being jealous. You're jealous of Reid and he's jealous of you. I'm tired of this jealousy. It needs to stop, or else one of you is leaving." "Yeah, that would probably be me. Wouldn't it?" "Most likely." He sighed, and sat down next to me. "I'm sorry love. I'll try to stop being jealous. I promise." "OK." "Can I take you back to the bus please, it's getting cold, and you don't need to be out in the cold." "Yeah, yeah, I know, and I guess." He stood up and picked me up. "Are you really going to carry me back to the bus?" "Yes, I am. Deal with it." I smiled and held on to him. He carried me back to the bus and laid me down on the couch. "Just so you know Gary, I've talked to Reid. That's when he told me you took off." "I figured. What did you talk to him about?" "About us getting over our jealousy of each other. I know it's not easy on you, and I told him that, but I also understand where his jealousy is coming from." "He told you?" "In a way, yes. He doesn't fully trust me, and he wants to make sure you will always be there to protect him. I just have to get use to sharing you." "Yup. But, I know it'll be OK. We've been through worse." "Yeah, I know." "I should go check on Reid." "I'll wait for you out here." "OK." I got up and went to check on Reid. He was snuggled up with Isabelle, asleep. I quietly closed the door and walked back to the front lounge. Brian was laying down on the couch, with a blanket over him. I could tell he had undressed. I crawled on top of him, and he placed his hands on my side, and smiled at me. "I love you Gary." "I love you too Brian." He gently pushed my head down and kissed me. I smiled and kissed him back. He pulled away, and I laid my head on his chest. He rubbed my back and was trying to turn me on, by slowly pushing himself against me. I tried to ignore him, but he kept pushing harder the more I ignored him. "Quit Brian." I said, tiredly. "No. I'm horny." I sighed. "You're always horny." "I can't help it. I have a hot ass Husband." I blushed and buried my head in his chest. "You don't have to hide, I know you still don't accept my compliments." "Yeah, well, you know why." "Yeah, I still don't like how people keep tearing you down, when I'm trying to help you out." "I know, but it's just how my life is." "Well, it shouldn't be like this. You deserve a better life." "You are my better life." He didn't say anything after I said that. I looked at him, he was blushing and hiding his face. "Really, that made you blush?" "Yes, it's the same for me. You're my better life as well. Even though I never said it. I've shown it, just was too embarrassed to say it." "Oh wow. That explains the way you acted around me." "Yeah, I was hoping you would catch on." "I've noticed a change in you over the years, I just didn't realize there was more than one reason for it." "Yeah, well, there are multiple reasons why." "OK." I started falling asleep after that. I was really tired.
