Band Imagines

OM&M - Alan Ashby

Secret Kisses

Y/N

You were in the process of packing up your apartment because you were moving in with your boyfriend Alan from Of Mice & Men. You didn't realise how many photos you'd kept of your teenage and college years until you found shoeboxes full of polaroids. Many were of you and friends but a few of your exes were scattered throughout, that was one part of your life Alan didn't know about.

Every teenager goes through a stage where they question their sexuality and whether or not they like boys or girls. You'd had boyfriends but also had girlfriends in college because at first, it started off as experimental, but you soon discovered you had feelings for both genders and identified yourself as bisexual.

When you met Alan at a meet and greet you'd not long broken up from your girlfriend of three months. As cliché as it sounded, you thought that you would never find someone to love. But little did you know that a ginger princess would come into your life and show you that someone could love you. Then again he didn't know you were into girls as well, and now you'd been together ten months and you were afraid of his reaction if he found out. You didn't want to lose him.

Without thought, you'd left the shoeboxes in the lounge on the coffee table not really thinking that Alan and the rest of the band might look through them. You were sorting out your wardrobe when you heard loud laughing come from the lounge.

"Babe come here for a second I need to ask you something."

Alan's voice echoed through your small apartment and you sighed, they were supposed to be packing up the lounge and you bet they were messing around like they usually did when they were around.

"What is it, Alan?"

You strolled into the lounge and your eyes bulged at the sight of the guys going through your photos. Internally you cursed yourself for not moving the box. Austin looked up at you and grinned holding a photo of you and your ex-girlfriend Rose, the girl you dated before Alan.

"You never told us you went through a phrase in college y/n."

You flinched at the word 'phrase' it was the exact word your parents used when you first told them you liked girls and boys, they were disappointed that they didn't have a normal daughter who wanted to marry a guy. They weren't particularly religious but I never took any of my girlfriends home.

"Oh look here are some more, damn y/n you got around."

Aaron waved some more photos in front of him; they were all your exes. You chew your lip and glance at Alan who had a confused look on his face. You sigh and run a hand through your hair.

"Alan you said you wanted to ask me something?"

You ignored the rest of the band who had gone back to looking through the photos. It was like you and Alan were in your own little bubble.

"Why do you have so many pictures of you kissing girls?"

This was the question you dreaded him asking, well not exactly worded the way he put it but similar. Would he judge you as your parents had? Would he break up with you because you lied all these months? You just needed to tell him and deal with the consequences.

"Err Alan most of the girls in those pictures are my exes. I'm sorry I lied to you but I thought you'd hate me because I like girls as well as guys."

The rest of the band fell silent while Alan simply stared at you.

"Please say something Alan."

"Damn that was unexpected," Austin chimes in.

Both you and Alan glare at Austin who shrinks away after interrupting your moment with your boyfriend. Alan gets up off the sofa and walks towards you, was he going to break it off with you? His face was expressionless and this was odd because normally he wore his emotions on his sleeve. You gulp and wait for the words to leave his mouth.

"Why didn't you tell me y/n? This is something pretty big."

"Because most times when I tell guys I also kiss girls you'd think they'd be down with it but most of the time they ridicule me. I've had boyfriends as well as girlfriends ever since high school Alan. That day at the meet and greet I told you I'd just come out of a relationship and you assumed it was a guy, her name was Rose and she's the girl in Austin's photo. When you assumed my ex was a guy I panicked because I liked you so I lied because I didn't want to lose you. My parents practically disowned me when they found out they didn't have a normal daughter, I'm bisexual there I said it. Now I understand if you want to dump me, I'd dump me if I was in your shoes. Find yourself a normal girlfriend who likes dicks instead of tits and dicks."

It all came out in one big spew, it was a nervous habit of yours but it felt like a weight had been lifted off your shoulders telling Alan. You kind of hoped that the rest of the band wouldn't be present but they'd find out eventually.

You waited for Alan to flip out on you but instead of being angry he smirked. This worried you because if you were in his shoes you'd be flipping out.

"I'm not going to dump you because you like tits as well as dicks. I would have liked to have known but I love you y/n and nothing's going to change that."

He pulled you into a hug while the rest of the guys cheered. It was odd having someone accept your sexuality, your parents never understood but you had a boyfriend who was one in a million.

"I love you to Alan."

The two of you kiss and then you feel a cushion hit you in the side of the head pulling the two of you apart. Austin sits pouting on the floor.

"What about me my ginger princess?"

"Austlan forever."

Alan runs and leaps on Austin leaving you standing and simply staring at the scene in front of you. Alan sits on Austin's lap and the two of them hug with Austin resting his chin on top of Alan's head.

You sit down next to Aaron on the sofa and pick up a beer bottle before taking a large swig.

"Are you sure there isn't something you two want to tell us?"

Aaron high fives you while the others cheer and whoop. Austin and Alan pull apart, Austin blushing slightly which was the cutest sight ever. Alan pecks Austin on the cheek before getting up and taking a place next to you on the sofa, he pecks you on the nose before grinning.

"I'm pretty sure I'm a tits man y/n," he jokes.
