Joel met Tony's eyes as he walked out of the bedroom, grin faltering as he realised Benji had gone. Sitting down next to Tony, he kissed him softly and asked him where Benji was.
Tony shrugged. "Said he wanted something to eat."
"And he just left?" Joel asked, eyes shining with hurt.
Tony nodded, sliding forward on the bed to wrap an arm around Joel's shoulder, pressing a kiss to his temple. "Go," he urged. "He's probably only gone downstairs."
"I..."
"No arguments," Tony insisted, "Go and find him and talk to him."
"But..."
Tony sighed. "Look, you've been happier in like the last half hour than you have been for the past few weeks, and if just telling Benji the truth is all it took then I'm not gonna let anything come between you if I can help it. He's your brother, Joel, your twin and... And if he's not happy about something, about us, then you need to go down there and talk to him, make him happy about it."
Joel nodded slowly and stood up. "I... See you later, then," he said, kissed Tony, walked through the door and made his way down to the hotel restaurant where Benji was. He sat opposite Benji, straddling the chair, arms folded over the back of it, chin resting on his hands, staring at Benji with one eyebrow cocked.
Benji tried to ignore Joel but couldn't stifle his giggle. Shaking his head, he looked up at Joel. "What?"
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing," Benji insisted, taking a sip of his coffee.
"Then why did you just walk off."
"I was hungry."
Joel shook his head. "You didn't order any food," he observed. "Are you really that disgusted in me that you... you couldn't even wait to get away from me?" He asked softly.
"Joel, no... I could never be disgusted with you... I just need to get my head around... around you and Tony. I'm stunned, I had absolutely no idea and I wasn't expecting it. You’re my brother and Tony's like my best friend and I didn't even have an inkling.... neither of you told me and... And that hurts, Joel."
Joel sighed and dropped his gaze. "Yeah, I know and..."
"You're sorry, yeah I know." Benji reached out and placed his hand on Joel's. "We're cool, I promise, ok? I just need to get my head around this, get used to it." He smiled reassuringly at Joel, relieved when Joel smiled back. "But, seeing you two together just now... it's so obvious that you're happy, happier than you’ve been since… well for a long time. And you're in love with him and he loves you back and... " Benji laughed. "I think he's going to be good for you. You’re good for each other.”
Relief flooded Joel’s face and he sighed shakily, grin widening as he met Benji’s eyes. “Thanks, Benj.”
Benji nodded and took another sip of his coffee. “I just need to get used to the idea, OK?” Joel nodded and opened his mouth to reply, but Benji continued. “Now, what are you doing down here when you should be back up there, with Tony? This tour isn’t going to last forever,” he reminded Joel as gently as he could, wincing as his twin’s face fell, sadness colouring his eyes. “Go be with him while you still can.”
“But I…”
“Go!” Benji laughed, raising one eyebrow.
“Yeah, OK.” Joel nodded again, chewing on his lower lip as he starting walking away. “I’ll see you this afternoon”
“Oh, and Joel?” Joel stopped and looked over his shoulder, frowning at the mischievous look on Benji’s look. “If you’re not walking bowlegged by sound check, I’ll be forced to have serious words with Tony!” Benji winked and burst into mad giggles as Joel choked and blushed bright red, mouth opening and closing as he tried to find a reply. He gave up and just shook his head, shoulders still shaking with laughter as he left the restaurant.
