Daniel didn’t know what else to do. He just sat there, his head in his hands, being crashed, being murdered, being taken away from whatever kept him alive the last few month.

“It’s only 6 more shows! Daniel?” Darren looked at him with those begging eyes, speaking volumes to him, saying this is really important to him. Daniel wasn’t looking at him.

Daniel couldn’t believe it. The state Darren was in… He still wanted to go on…

“It’s a big chance, Daniel,” Elena joined in, “how many times in your life have you been asked to PLEASE go and play six shows in America? Sold out. Everything ready for you.”

Daniel didn’t want to look up. The last weeks were pure hell for him. All he wanted to do was go home. All the problems he had ever faced at home, all the troubles that were bothering him before, he couldn’t care, he couldn’t believe he has ever worried about something as trivial as fans outside his house… Anything… Anything, just get him home! HIS HOME. His family. His local pub.

Daniel was so tired of hotels. Whenever he wanted to go down to a bar, there were fans. No security could hold them away from hotel bars. Going out of a hotel was never an option, they had to keep the face and paparazzi were everywhere. The only option he had was room service. Daniel so longed for his local pub, he longed for a beer in a company of other drunken people… He realized drinking on his own made him drink so much more… He lost count of how much he’d been drinking, he simply didn’t know. Darren was rarely around these days except of when he suddenly crawled next to Daniel in the middle of a night…

“Daniel?” he heard Elena’s voice.

He raised his head and looked at them both. Where they mad? All gone mad? He looked at their faces – Darren clearly beg, Eg, Elena confused and expecting… Mad, they were both mad… However Daniel suddenly realized those were the only people he could talk to at the moment. The only people who’d listen to him and maybe relate to what he feels.

“I am sort of tired, guys…” Daniel said, “I am lonely. Not to say I don’t have people around me or anything…” Daniel sharrearren a look. His face still begging. Daniel doubted Darren heard him at all. “I am … It seems you have the whole world under your feet… But I feel I am lonely. Besides of all the fans and all the fuss, I can’t look at myself in a mirror and say I am happy. Do you know what I mean? I’ve got no life outside hotels. I don’t want to live like that the rest of my life!”

Elena looked him in the eyes, smiling a sad smile Daniel almost thought was compassionate. She talked in her usual manner, but Daniel had small shivers listening to her this time. Like he’d never heard her voice before. Like he had never listened to her before.

“Do you think you are so unique being where you are? Daniel? Have you seen me anywhere outside these hotels the last 6 months? Have you seen me with friends? Have you seen me talking to anyone except of people related to this? Do I have family outside of this sick circle of people? We are all in the same boat, Daniel, please don’t shake it now while we are all still in it!”

Daniel didn’t know what to think. He knew she is not his friend. At the same time he knew she was indeed in the same shoes and were they a family now? Darren … where did Darren stand in this? Daniel turned his head to look at him. Darren was as confused as Daniel was. He was as lonely, as miserable… Just that he wanted to achieve something at a price Daniel could not comprehend. Why? Why?

Daniel turned to Elena and said, “6 shows is all, but I want to go home in between, that week we have, I will go back to Australia, whether you want it or not!!” he looked over at Darren now, “and whether you go or not!”

Daniel didn’t care any more what Elena thought. She probably was informed about their relationship more than Daniel wanted to know she was. Whenever they were not at each other’s thro Dar Darren and Elena had almost been friends over the past few months.

Elena nodded. Darren smiled relieved. Daniel got up to return to his hotel room to think over what he had just done.

He took a little notice of the band standing outside Elena’s room in a hallway, probably waiting for his final decision. He just wanted to get away and hide in his room.

Landing his tired body on the bed, Daniel suddenly felt he is tired. More than just tired. He could hardly keep his thoughts together. He was spinning into unconsciousness. Just before darkness blocked his senses completely, he sat up and shook his head. It hurt. His eyelids were heavy and his mind was half gone.

Daniel realized he’d been running at a pace he wasn’t ready for, much less felt comfortable with. He’d been MADE to do things at a pace he didn’t set himself. He was made to do things he wasn’t so sure about. Was that a point of making it big? Getting famous? He was employed and still did what other people told him to do. And it made him tired both physically and morally. He was worn out.

Sudden self-pity overwhelmed him as he buried his face in a pillow and sobbed quietly. 6 more shows. Then he will think about it. Then, when they are back home, he will decide.

Darren knocked on his door. It couldn’t have been anyone else. Daniel looked at his watch. It’s been 30 minutes since he left them in Elena’s room. Slowly Daniel got out of the bed and walked over to open the door.

“You’re alright, Danny?” Darren asked, looking at Daniel’s red eyes and ruffled hair.

“I am fine. Just tired. Very very tired, Darren.”

Daniel let Darren do wver ver he liked, without even waiting for him to come in and closing the door behind him. Daniel just returned to the bed and really just wanted to fall asleep.

In a very predictable simple move Darren curled up next to him and Daniel immediately felt better smelling Darren’s cologne and feeling his arms around him. Daniel sighed.

“Feeling better?” Darren asked.

“Yes, I do,” Daniel answered just half awake and let the sleep take him over.

Daniel woke up feeling hot lips on his neck. A tongue caressing his earlobe. He opened his eyes.

“Honey,” Darren murmured, “I didn’t want to wake you up but thought maybe you want to take off your clothes, it’s already late…” Darren kissed Daniel’s neck again.

Daniel turned around and embraced Darren’s body. He kissed Darren with such passion they hadn’t seen in each other for weeks. Feeling Darren answer him, lean into him, give into him, Daniel couldn’t believe they had ever let it become anything less… anything less than the fire he felt inside of the man kissing him baow, ow, pressing his whole body against him, running his fingers through Daniel’s hair, rolling him over and on top of him, thrusting his hips up… Fire. Daniel felt fire.

They frantically ripped off each other clothes, not even bothering to throw anything away, just letting pieces of clothing stay on the bed under them and on top of them, rolling over them and pushing them out of the way if necessary.

Daniel paused for a moment. He had Darren pinned to the bed under him, Darren’s hair in wild mess. Daniel looked down at him, running a hand over Darren’s face, a wordless sign of affection before Darren moved his hips under him and parted his legs, moaning out loud when he felt Daniel follow his movements and press his hips down onto him, reaching his hand down between them.

Daniel silently watched Darren getting dressHis His tight jeans fitting so perfectly… He bent down to pick up another piece of closing and Daniel smiled to himself. Perfection. Darren straightened up and tossed his hair back. He put on a silk flower pattern Dolce & Gabana shirt they had picked together. It was so Darren. Everything in fashion was so Darren. The clothes were wrinkled and messy. But Daniel would fight everyone who’d tell Darren didn’t look first class that morning.

“Sorry didn’t see you are awake,” Darren smiled, catching Daniel’s look.

“I am,” Daniel answered. Waking up having Darren next to him was the best thing he knew in this world. But waking up to a show of him putting his clothes on wasn’t bad either, just for change. Daniel smiled.

“What?” Darren asked with annoyance suggesting he thinks Daniel is making fun of him.

“It’s just that you look so perfect, all those things look so good on yoke yke you’ve been born to wear them”

“Maybe I am,” Darren winked and jumped back onto the bed, now fully dressed. “What do you want to do today? We are all free…”

Daniel took a moment to think. He suddenly remembered.

“Jesus Darren… what do I want to do? I don’t even know where we bloody are!”

“I guess you want to get back home as soon as possible then?” Darren asked, looking him in the eyes. Sad strange understanding shining between them.

“Yes, that’s correct thinking,” Daniel run a hand over Darren’s cheek.
