"Scott I am really sorry about what happened in the other room just now. Clint wasn't thinking when he said that. I know he didn't mean it. We just feel a little weird about this. I mean you are our big brother and we look up to you. We just haven't gotten use to this yet. I think it's just going to take time." Bob said. "Bob I understand that it's going to take some time for you guy's to get use to the changes, but I wish you would just be happy for me." Scott said, as his eye's started to water. "We do Scott. It's just that we don't understand why you feel you have to tell people about it." "I need to do this Bob. I hate it when I hear that question, do you have girlfriends yet? I just want to yell at everyone, and say I am in love with the most beautiful person. However, I have been told time and time again that I have to keep it a secrete, just smile, and say, No! I don't want to do that anymore Bob." "Oh Scott I didn't know it hurt you that bad. I am sorry I didn't stand behind you on this at the start. I am going to stick with you through out the rest of this. I mean that." Said Bob, as he put his arm around his brother. "Thank you Bob." Said Scott, as he gave his brother a hug.
Meanwhile I had walked over to were Clint and Dave were and was about to knock on the door when I noticed the door was left ajar. I slowly opened it and peaked in. "Bob is that you?" Asked Dave. "Umm... no it's me." I said, as I entered the room. Dave was sitting on one of the beds and when he saw me he looked scared. "Dude don't worry I am not mad at you guy's. I just wanted to give you guy's the chance to talk to me. I don't want to cause any problems. "Does Scott know you are over here?" Asked Dave. "No! If he did he would kill me." I said with a smile. Dave laughed slightly and said, "He is really mad at us isn't he?" "Yea, he is a little pissed off, but we have seen worst day's." I said smiling again. Dave smiled and said, "Do you love him?" "Wow you don't wait to ask the important questions." "I am sorry. If you don't want to answer..." but before he could finish I cut him off and said, "Yes! I do. I think of him no matter where I am, and I wouldn't be doing this now if I didn't care for him. I want us all to get along, and don't worry about the questions. If I don't want to answer one I wont answer it." "I thought at first that maybe you were just trying to get Scott so that you could be a part of this fame. However, I don't think that now. I still don't feel comfortable with this but I am willing to try and make this work, because I don't want to hurt my brother." Said Dave. "Oh isn't this nice. You have brain washed Scott, Bob, and now you are going after Dave. When will you realize we don't want you in this family?" Said Clint. "Clint Shut up!" Snapped Dave. "No, it's all right Dave. Let him talk. Clint I don't know what you dislike about me but I love your brother, and that is not going to change no matter what happens. I am going to tell you the same thing I told Bob and Dave, that you can ask me anything you want, because I don't want to cause any chaos in this family, but you are going to have to get use to this because I am not going to leave Scott." Clint just looked at me for what seemed like an eternity and then sighed, "Fine! I will try and deal with this, but I am not promising anything." "Well, at least that's a start. I am going to go back and see how Scott is doing maybe you should come and talk with him." I said. However, before we could leave Bob walked in with Scott next to him. "Lets leave these guy's alone." I said to Bob and Dave. "Yea lets see if there is anything good to eat at the snack bar." Dave said, as he walked out of the room with me and Bob. "Dave you are always thinking of food." Bob said. "I am not!" Shot back Dave. Me and Bob just started laughing, as I shut the door.
"So...." Said Scott as he looked at his brother. "Well, I am still not happy about this and I think it's very foolish of you to do, but I am sorry for what I said to you." "What kind of apology is that supposed to be?" Asked Scott. "Scott don't get me going again. I am willing to bite my tongue on this, and that is going to have to be good enough. However, I don't think I will ever be happy with this." Said Clint. "Fine then don't bother me any more. As far as I am concerned I only have two brothers." Said Scott as he walked out of the room. Clint couldn't believe what he had just heard. "How could my brother say something like that?" Thought Clint. "I love him as a brother and I just don't want to lose the friendship we had before he started seeing someone. Why couldn't I just tell him that?" Cried Clint. That night we drove down to the studio for the show in silence. Like usual there were a bunch of fans outside waiting, and when we pulled up the guy's smiled, and allowed some pictures to be taken until Frank told us to come inside. I always admired their ability to be so kind to their fans even if they were in a bad mood. Yea sometimes they might have the occasional moment when they were rude to a fan, but usually they deserved it. However, for the most part they were so nice to their fans. We were brought into a small room and Mike stopped by for a second to see if Scott was still planning on telling everyone the late breaking news. When everything had been finalized we were told that after Mike did his little thing that we would be told to come up.
"And now without further adieu here is The Moffatts" Said Mike, as all these girls started screaming. The guy's ran out on to the stage and picked up there instruments and started right into a rocking, great performance of "Just Another Phase." "Let's not be blind..." as Scott finished the song the crowd got wild and the screaming just got louder. I loved watching all these girls go nuts over them. I thought it was funny how they didn't even listen to this great music, or if they did then they must have had awesome hearing. "We will be right back with the Moffatts right after this." Said Mike, as they went into commercial. The guy's walked over to the chairs by Mike and as Scott walked by he looked over at me standing backstage and gave me that wicked smile. I heard this girl scream to her friend, "he smiled at me", and I couldn't help but start to laugh, but I soon stopped when one of the producers looked over at me with an evil look. I didn't understand why she was looking at me that way when the girls were making more noise then me, but I didn't want to start anything so I just said, "Sorry." She just looked at me for a second and then went back to what she was doing. "Well, we are back and for those of you who are just joining us I have one of this country's greatest bands, The Moffatts, with me." Said Mike. Of course with the mention of their name the entire crowd went nuts again. Mike didn't wait to get to the important question. "So, Scott I hear that you want to tell everyone here something that no one else knows?" "Umm... Yea I do have something that is really important to say." Said Scott nervously. "Well, we are dying to know what it is." Said Mike. Bob was looking out over the crowd and soon saw El off in the distance. He smiled up to her and she waved down at him. "Well, first off I don't want everyone to get pissed off. I understand that some fans might get upset, but please try and understand." Said Scott. The audience got quiet and a few girls screamed out, "we love you Scott!" Scott looked up and smiled at them and said to everyone, "I have found someone that I want to live with for the rest of my life. I am in love and it feels great and I want everyone to meet that person tonight. James will you walk out here?" Said Scott. I slowly walked out on to the floor and when I saw the audience I felt terrible. Some of the girls were crying, and everyone couldn't believe what Scott had just said. However, when they saw me that's when the screaming got loud again, and one girl screamed out, "What the ****! Scott Moffatt can't be gay. What the **** did you do to him." I couldn't help but scream back, " I didn't do anything, but love him." Of course that didn't go over well and Mike was forced to stop the show and we all were rushed of the stage.
"I told you Scott! We are ruined now because of you and James." Screamed Clint. "Clint stop that right now!" Scolded Frank. "No dad! You saw those fans reactions. This will be all over the news tomorrow, and our fans will not want anything to do with a queer band." "Clinton I said stop it or else..." "Or else what dad?" Screamed Clint as he ran towards the van waiting for them. "God Scott why oh why oh why did we have to do this?" Said Frank. "Dad! I can't believe you could say that. I love James and I want people to know that. "Scott I didn't mean, but before he could say anything else security came running down the hall screaming for us to get into the van pronto, and get the hell out of here. Everyone piled into the van and our driver sped out, but a few fans had managed to reach us and as we were driving away one of them managed to hurl a stone at the window shattering it into pieces. "Get us the Hell out of here!" Screamed Frank. As we drove off into the night we heard the fans screaming, "Why?" Once we were away from the scene Sheila looked back at us and asked if everyone was all right. Lucky for all of us, even though there was glass all around us, none of us had gotten cut. I looked at Scott and his family and I couldn't hold it in anymore and I just started to cry. "Oh James don't worry we will deal with this." Said Scott as he took me in his arms and hugged me and started to cry as well. Bob looked over at us and said, "Scott, James I am hear for you." "Thank You! Bob." I said. "Me too, and us too boy's." Said Dave, Sheila, and Frank. Clint looked over at us and he said, "Scott..." "Clint please don't start in right now." Said Frank. "No! I am going to say this. Scott I am here for you too and I am sorry for all that stuff I said about you and James. I just don't want to lose the friendship we had between us before James came into the picture." Said Clint. He felt much better after getting that out and Scott looked up at his brother and smiled. "Clint I am sorry too and I still love you as a brother, and our relationship will never change." Said Scott as him and Clint hugged. We made it to the hotel and rushed inside leaving Frank behind to talk with the driver and make arrangements for them to get a new van early the following morning to take us to the airport. When we had gotten to the elevator Clint looked over at me and put out his hand and said, "I am sorry. Can we start over?" I took his hand and shook it, and with a smile I said, "Yes." The next morning wasn't a good one. We had made up between each other but I knew that the guy's still felt a little upset that this had happened when it could have been easily avoided, our hotel was surrounded with media and fans, and the hotel staff was telling us that we needed to leave the hotel, because all of this stuff was interfering with the other guests. We managed to get out, but it was a nightmare. The camera's were in our faces, and the reporters kept on asking me questions like, "Are you really in love, how old are you, are you using him?" I couldn't believe this, I felt terrible, I didn't want this to happen to Scott, or any of his family. I started to believe what Clint had said the night before, that maybe this wasn't the best thing for us to have done. We got into the replacement van without any more incidents, and went straight to the airport, and headed back to Calgary.
I still don't remember how I fell asleep on the plane but I woke up to Scott saying, "Get up we're hear." "Good! It will be nice to go back home." I said. Scott looked at me confused and said, "What are you talking about James? We are in Toronto. Don't you remember we are going to be on the Mike Bullard show tomorrow." Said Scott. "What! You mean that was a dream?" "What are you talking about?" Asked Scott. I looked up at Scott and gave him a hug and said, "Scott I love you." "I love you too James, and tomorrow everyone is going to know." Said Scott. "No!" I said. "What! Are you all right James?" Asked Scott. "Yea I am all right it's just... Well, lets just hold off on this for a little bit longer. I don't think I am ready for this yet, and I would like it if I could talk with my parents instead of having them find out on TV. I also think your brothers have to get use to me a little bit more before we move forward with this." "James, I thought you were ok with this? However, if you feel that way then I wont tell anyone until you're ready." Said Scott. "Scott thank you so much, and I don't want you to think this means I don't love you because I do." Scott looked at me and whispered, "I would love to kiss you right here but I wouldn't want anyone to see us." He said. "I looked up at him and smiled. I didn't care at that moment and it wasn't like anyone was going to see because the last of the passengers were getting off the plane, so I grabbed him and gave him a quick kiss. "James! Someone could have seen us." Said Scott. "I know, but I had to kiss you." I said smiling. "Boy's your going to have to get off now." Said the attendant. "Sorry, I was just waking up my friend." Said Scott. "Well, hurry it up." Said the attendant. We got up and quickly got off the plane and caught up with the others. As we walked through the airport lobby there were about a dozen girls who had come by and one held a sign saying I love Scott. I just smiled, and thought to myself, "Yea! I do to." Scott looked over at me, and he must have known what I was thinking because he smiled, and mouthed the words, "I love you too." I knew then that we didn't need to tell everyone about us. I loved Scott and he loved me, and that was something we would feel no matter if people knew or not, so why not allow those girls to have their day too, and love someone like we loved each other. Did I mention I love it how the Moffatts are able to be so good to their fans. They did what those necklaces symbolized, God first, others second, and yourself third. We walked towards the girls and they gave each of them an autograph and one asked, "Do you guy's have girlfriends and Scott said, "No!" He then looked over at me and smiled as Frank told us that it was time to go.
I hope no one would be upset with any Moffatt for falling in love, because it's bound to happen sooner or later.
