Markevin


I open my eyes and groaned. I had a massive headache and
felt sick. I knew I shouldn't of gone out drinking last night. We
were celebrating the end of our tour. Kevin hadn't come along said it
wasn't his place. I knew it was because he didn't get along with the
girls, but I didn't want to push him to come. I couldn't remember
last night. I looked around, at least I managed to get home. I turned
over and looked at my lover. He looked so peaceful and innocent just
lying their. No doubt he knew what happened last night though and he
wouldn't be so peaceful when he woke up.

I got up and put my dressing gown on. I went downstairs and
decided to make Kevin some breakfast. I made my way back upstairs
about ten minutes later with his breakfast in my hands. I opened the
door and put the food down on his bed side table. I shook him gently
trying to wake him up. He open his eyes slowly and looked at
me. " morning babe" I said
"morning"
"ermmm, here I made you breakfast" I handed him the plate.
"thanks" he took the plate and started to eat his breakfast. I sat
down next to him hoping he wasn't go to go off on one. I already had
a headache!

When he finished his breakfast he got up and took it
downstairs and put it in the dishwasher, I followed him like a shadow
worried because he wasn't saying much to me at all. He turned around
and brushed past me into the living room still not saying anything. I
followed him and sat down beside him. He switched the telly on and
scanned some of the channels. Pressing the button harder each time as
another channel had nothing interesting on. "we have over 3oo
channels and there is nothing on!" he complained before storming out
of the room and back upstairs. I sighed, what had happened last
night? I got up and followed him upstairs determined to find out what
I had done. As I entered our room Kevin was lying on the bed, tears
streaming down his face. "Jesus Kev what's wrong?" he looked up at me
and rolled over. I rushed beside him and took him in my arms rocking
him back and forth. As his tears subsided he turned to look at
me. "I'm sorry marky"
"what for?"
"last night, I'm surprised you aren't really mad at me!"
"Babe I cant remember last night, what happened?"
"what you mean you cant remember last night?"
"I dunno to drunk I think" I gave a little laugh. He smiled
weakly. "Kev, what happened?" he went silent. Looking anywhere but at
me.
"Kev its ok, just tell me"
"ermmm" he hesitated "ok, but promise to let me explain before you go
off on one."
"ok then I promise"
"well you and the lads all went to the pub to celebrate the end of
the tour"
"yeah I remember that"
"well when you left Aaron rang, asking if I would like to go to the
pub for a few drinks, so I said yes and I left for the pub. I met him
outside at about 10. We went in and had about five drinks each, but
everyone was giving us weird looks. We tried to ignore it but we felt
as if they were talking about us. So we got up and went to leave when
these men came up to us."
"its ok. Carry on"
" Mark I punched him!" I left go of him stunned
"you punched him?" I asked, sharply. He started to cry again. Fresh
tears making quick tracks down his cheeks. He nodded. "this man, he
came up to us asking us who we were. Aaron told him to fuck off and
we tried to walk away. He grabbed me and pushed me against the wall,
threating me if we didn't tell him he would make us pay. I was about
to tell him, when they hit Aaron over the head. I'm sorry I just
freaked out."
"what did they hit him with?"
"I…I dunno" another sob racked his body. I tuck hold of him again.
"babe its ok, so what happened after you punched him?"
"he left go off me, and I grabbed Aaron and we ran, mark I'm really
sorry I didn't mean to hit him but I got scared!"
"shhh, its ok don't worry about it. What happened to Aaron did you
take him to the hospital?"
"No, not then"
"oh ok, so you ran home?"
"well yeah we came back here, both me and Aaron, we got back about
11:30. He said his head was aching and their was a bit of blood so I
took him to the hospital."
"what did they say?"
"I didn't stay long. They took him off to a room and said I couldn't
go with him as I wasn't family. A nurse came back about twenty
minutes later, she said their was nothing seriously wrong, but they
wanted to keep him over night just in case. I waited outside for a
while, and then Kian rang asking if I could swing by the pub and
bring you home."
"And you just left him their on his own?"
"No, no, I rang his family his mam came. So when I left the hospital
she was with him."
"oh, ok"
"marky can we go to the hospitial I want to see if he is ok?"
"course we can, lets get ready and we can go"


An hour later we were in the car heading for the hospitial. I
was wanting to ask both Kevin and Aaron to go to the police, but now
was not the time. I parked the car and we got out and headed for the
reception. We neared Aarons room and Kevin knocked on the door
quietly before popping his head around. "can we come in?"
"course you can love" I herd a female voice.
We entered the room and sat down next to Aarons bed. He was
asleep. "Is he going to be ok?" I asked his mam.
"yeah they are going to release him later on today. Kevin what
happened?"
Kevin told her the whole story, the only difference this time he
didn't cry. It would be an understatement to say his mam was shocked
but who could blame her. When Aaron woke up we were all glad. He
didn't seem shocked or hurt at all. He was just joking around and
being his normal self. Although he did mention about how angry he was
at the guys who had hit him over the head. When he said that, I
thought it was the perfect time to mention about them going to the
police. "Are you mad no way am I going to the police!" Kevin protested
"Me either" I looked at Aarons mam for some support, which she gladly
gave.
"yes you are! Do you just think you can let him get away with it?"
"We don't even know his name, I barely know what he look likes"
"Kev babe, you don't need to know his name, and their might have been
other people around who seen it happen and have already reported it."
"do we have to?" Kevin sulked.
"yes you do! Come on we better get back home, we have been here all
day." we said our goodbyes and made our way home.

We ate our dinner, then got ready for bed. "what a day!" I
had to laugh.
"what a weekend!" Kevin corrected. I slipped onto the bed next to him
and entwined our fingers, admiring how they fitted together so
perfectly. We lay like that for a while in comfortable
silence. "marky you will come to the police with me and Aaron
tomorrow won't you?"
"course I will" I kissed his fore head before snuggling back down on
the bed. "come on lets get some sleep."



I opened my eyes and turned over. Today we would need to tell
the police. I hoped to god that they would find the men that had hurt
Kevin. What kind of people would hurt some-one just because they
didn't tell you their names? Well hopefully we were going to get some
answers sometime soon. Kevin stirred in his sleep, before opening his
eyes. "Hey you ok today?"
"yeah I'm fine. Are you ok marky?"
"yep, come on lets get up and have some breakfast." we got a shower
and ate our breakfast before we headed to Aarons house.

The three of us entered the police station together. We went
up to the desk where a young lady asked us what had happened. We told
her and she took us into a small room. In this room Pc Dixon
interviewed both Aaron and Kevin. He told us he may know who the man
was but when he was sure he would contacts us and let us know. On our
way home me and Kevin decided to go to a near by café and get some
lunch. Aaron went straight home, still on strict orders from the
hospital to rest.

We entered the café and sat down at a table in the corner
where no-one could hear us. We ordered our food and drinks and just
sat their in a comfortable silence. The waiter came back and placed
our food down in front of us. When I knew he was out of hearing range
I started a small conversation. "babe, are you ok?"
"yeah im fine."
"you know going to the police was the right thing to do don't you?"
"yeah I know. I just hope they find him. You know? I don't really
want that happening again."
"neither do I!"
"Mark, you sure your not mad at me for punching that man?"
"you know I don't approve of violence but I suppose I can let you off
with that. Now come on eat up."

When we got home our answer phone was flashing. The message
was from PC Dixon. "hello, I'm just calling to let you know that the
person who attacked Kevin and Aaron has been interviewed and
Questioned and has been proved guilty. He will be spending some time
in prison and doesn't look like he will be bothering you anytime
soon. bye." I placed the phone back and went over to Kevin. "That's
great!" I smiled
"yep, I think it calls for celebrating." he took hold of my hand and
dragged me toward the bedroom!
