Disclaimer: This fic, HISF, is purely a work of fiction, from my own twisted imagination. I do not personally know any of The Becoming band members, and I do not profit from anything I write |
A/N: This chapter starts out good, but some parts of it I think are a bit weak, or could have been better. I skipped some scenes, just basic ones where nothing interesting has to happen, in order to connect the three tid bits of text I had.
When I run into a wall with where I’m at, I sometimes skip ahead with an idea for a scene or convo in a future chapter, and write that for a while, so I’m still working on the story in some way. So I’d done that with this chapter. But I’ve really not been able to get farther in the main body of it, which was only about 1k in words.
So it’s 5am and I just finished struggling to make the scenes connect, so that I could give you about 700 more words, give or take, and not have it be such a dinky chapter. So, some scenes, I skipped over, in my attempt to make this chapter work. Let me know if it really sucks Dx

Soon, standing in front of Kory, was not Katrella, but Dustinn.
~ ~ Kory ~ ~
And that long haired lovely man was beckoning to him, smiling and opening his arms. Kory slide into those arms, feeling them wrap around him to pull him close. Something flicked off in Kory’s head, scenes around him changing, but the warm body remained, so he focused on it and sighed in contentment, nuzzling his cheek against the hard chest beneath him. How they had ended up laying down and at least partially naked was beyond him.
Partially naked? Chest…beneath him? His thoughts began to rouse him from his post-dream state, and when he opened his eyes, Kory saw exactly what someone nuzzling their cheek to a chest might find; a naked chest. Letting his still sleepy eyes travel up, he was soon met with the sweet-looking, peaceful slumbering face of Dustinn.
Furrowing his brow, Kory thought back on the previous night. He somewhat remembered slipping into Dustinn’s bed and waiting for him to get out of the shower. And now, here he was, snuggled cozily on top of his band mate and best friend, who was quite a warm and comfortable human pillow. With the way Dustinn’s arms were snuggly wrapped around his waist, Kory thought that the older male must have held him all night long. A warmth filled him, a small smile touching his face as Kory looked at the man beneath him.
Letting out a soft sigh, Kory glanced at the clock; the red glowing digits stated that it was nearing 5am. Caleb insisted that they be on the road by 6am sharp, which meant they had about 45 minutes to get dressed and eat breakfast before they’d have to start loading up to go. Kory wanted a quick shower before they went, and his stomach was already demanding breakfast, though the rest of his body was telling him it was too warm and content where it was to go anywhere.
Before he could make up his mind whether to move or not, the form below him shifted slightly, the hands around his waist tightening a fraction, before loosening again to rub their way up his sides, sending delighted shivers through Kory’s body. He felt a puff of warm breath on his ear as a sleepy voice spoke huskily to him,
“Good mornin’ Kor. Sleep well?”
Kory pushed himself up further, looking down, his breath catching a little. Had he never realized how good looking Dustinn was when he had just woken up? Those long dark locks splayed out around his head, his grey-blue depths with a smoky look to them, that pink tongue of his moistening his luscious lips.
If Kory had been able to see his own eyes as he looked down at Dustinn, he would see that they had taken on a slightly darker green tone that was as smoky as the eyes he was looking into.
The short haired male let out a small gasp as he was suddenly rolled beneath the other man; hands settled onto Kory’s naked waist and soft lips pressed against his. The kiss exploded in heat like a blow torch had suddenly lit fire to a tank of gasoline. Kory felt like his insides were melting, and he grabbed onto Dustinn, wrapping his arms around the older males neck and twisting his fingers into that silky soft hair. Their naked chests pressed and rubbed together as their mouths ate at each other.
There was a knock at the door, which seemed to pull Dustinn’s mind from their activity, while Kory was still happily taking part. When those lips pulled away from his, Kory almost whined in his throat in protest. After a moment another soft knock sounded, and a voice politely spoke to them through the door,
“Kory, Dustinn? You two up yet?” Justin, always the sweet, friendly and polite gentleman, was the reason Dustinn’s lips were no longer attached to his. He’d scowl at the man if he were in sight. A soft laugh reached Kory’s ears as the body above his shifted off of him. Turning to look up at the older man now standing at the edge of the bed, his eyes taking in the toned body on the way up to meet those grey-blue orbs, he flushed a little at the smile on Dustinn’s face that said he knew exactly what the younger man had been thinking.
“No need to get testy, Korbear. If Just hadn’t been the one to come check on us, it could have been Pud. And knowing him, he probably wouldn’t have knocked.” The thought of the other man walking in on them while they’d been lip-locked made Kory’s cheeks flush even more. While he was caught up in such embarrassing thoughts, Dustinn had made his way to the door, pulling it open to reveal an already dressed Justin.
“Morning Just, not surprised to see you up and ready so early. You eat breakfast yet?” Kory smiled as Dustinn said this, both of them knowing full well that Justin was an early riser, and often aided Caleb in making sure the rest of the band mates we’re ready on time. Plus he liked to use the extra time he had in the morning to email his girlfriend, since she wasn’t such an early riser as he was, and he preferred not to call and wake her from her slumber, if he could help it.
“Good morning Dustinn. No, I was just about to go get some, wanted to know if you and Kory were interested in joining me.”
“Sure, just give us a moment to get showered and dressed and we’ll be down. We’re in one of those closed off rooms, right? Parlor A?”
“Yes, that’s right. I’ll let Caleb know that you’ll be down soon.” With a smile and a wave of his hand, Justin was off. Kory watched as Dustinn turned around, lifting his gaze to settle on Kory, who was still sprawled out on his back.
“Too bad it’s time for breakfast, and not…dessert.” Dustinn said with a grin, leaning against the door. Kory blushed deeply, smiling softly as Dustinn chuckled. “Well, we better get going. Do you want the first shower, or shall I take it?”
“Uhm, I’ll go first.” The older male nodded, raising an eyebrow teasingly at Kory.
“Well, you do have to get off the bed and undressed first, Kor.”
“I know that, Dust. I’m going, I’m going.” Flashing a smile at Dustinn, Kory got up, gathering what he’d need from his luggage, and headed into the bathroom.
Two showers and about twenty minutes later, Kory and Dustinn were on their way downstairs. Kory inhaled deeply. Dustinn sure smelled good; he could smell the strawberry scented shampoo the other man had used. And it made him hungry, for food mostly, but also for another kiss from Dustinn. But he’d lived without Dustinn’s kisses for this long, he’d keep on doing it…until he was bestowed another, at least.
They arrived in the designated room, Kory’s eyes widening at the plentiful array of food, smiling softly as he heard Dustinn squeak in glee before grabbing a plate and going at it. Moving a bit more slowly, Kory saw the other guys already sitting at the table, minus one; Caleb. Who was probably making sure their travel plans were all set to go.
All the food looked and smelled so good! Kory got some of this and that; some fresh fruit, two slices of bacon, some scrambled eggs and a glass of milk. Spying some muffins, he decided to grab a banana nut one for the road. Carrying his food over to the table, he saw that Dustinn had already taken a seat and pulled out the chair next to him for Kory, and was now happily sucking down his orange juice.
The boys talked about random things while they ate to pass the time, Pud occasionally making a lame joke. After a little while, the beeper from Justin’s watch interrupted Pud mid-sentence. “Well, that means it’s time to get on the bus.” The hotel had the bellboys pick up the luggage straight from their room, and then it was loaded onto the bus. So, all they had to do was get themselves together and load up.
They met up with Caleb in the foyer of the hotel, who was saying a polite goodbye to one of the bellboys. After exchanging greetings, the guys all piled onto the bus, preparing themselves for another long trip. Once they were all settled and all luggage was accounted for, Caleb gave the driver the O.K to go.
Their lead singer cleared his throat, his subtle way of saying, ‘Shut up now, please.’ Dustinn made a funny face in Kory direction, causing him to laugh softly. “Okay, we’ve got a seven hour trip to our next concert location, so get settled.”
Pud groaned softly. “Hey Harry, could you dim the lights?; it’s still too early.” Caleb shook his head, but nodded at the bus driver, who put the lights on low.
Still feeling slightly sleepy, Kory decided to occupy one of the two sets of bunk beds in the back of the bus, climbing to the top and flopping onto his back, he grabbed at the green blanket that was folded near the bottom and spread it out over himself, wiggling until he was comfortable.
Kory pulled out his iPod, popping his earphones in before turning it on. He flicked through the screens, coming across his recent plays. Near the top was something unfamiliar to him…there were a few songs he didn’t know. Selecting one of them, he hit play, and listened;
Take this razor, sign your name,
Through my skin into my veins.
Tear me open, rip me through,
Pierce my flesh, then start anew.
Burn my heart, and sear my skin,
You can damn my soul, but you’ll never win.
I won’t let you. (1)
It was a smooth song with a simple melody, the sound of violins and piano accompanying the singer; who he knew to be a pretty, somewhat goth looking girl, whose voice was clear and lovely, with a haunting quality to it. Definitely something Katrella would listen to.
Which would be why he recognized the voice, having been forced to listen to it a few times. But as to why it was on his iPod, well; Kat probably had stolen it at some time and decided to throw some of her music on there, thinking he’d listen to it. Kory flipped through the songs, deleting most of them.
He had just selected some songs to listen to, when he felt the bunk beds shift a little as someone climbed the ladder. Looking in that direction, he felt a warmth go through him when Dustinn’s long haired head came into view. The older man climbed up fully, settling onto the bed next to Kory, their bodies touching all along the one side.
Kory pulled an earplug out, offering it to Dustinn, who popped it into his ear closest to the short haired males. Kory had brought his muffin with him, and silently offered the other man some, who accepted with a large grin on his face, more than likely still hungry, even after all he had packed away at breakfast. The two pressed close together; sharing space, sharing music, and sharing a banana nut muffin. What a nice way to start the trip. Eventually, they fell asleep, snuggled against one another.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A/N: I’ve realized I tend to take Kory’s POV more than Dustinn’s. I finished last chapter with it, and this chapter is mostly Kory, and hardly any Dustinn. I’ll try to get more Dustinn POV in the next chapter.

Number notes ;
(1) I wrote these lyrics. I’ve even put them to music, in my head at least xD If you think you’ve seen them before, it’s because I’ve posted them online on different sites, a long time ago. Ones that either shut down or that I no longer visit. So, though I doubt anyone will recognize them, just in case; they are mine.

Review reply ;
Clover ~ Ohhh good! Yeah, I wanted to post a new chapter so bad, so I decided to spilt what I had up and make it work! I think 2k is a good mark, not too little, but enough for new stuff and to keep you interested :’D
Yay, I’m glad you liked them! It’s one of the only reasons I write; to please myself and readers, makes me feel all good ^_^ Oh I just had to do the crazy hallucination/dream thing, the idea for it came out of no where, but it was a way for me to describe Katrella and also the her becoming Dustinn has got to have some meaning, eh? C;
Sometimes I think I am too wordsy, but I have fun writing and I’m glad you like my style. And I’m not sure how I magically manage to do action tags well, I just…do xD Oh you’re very welcome, thank you so much for reviewing!
