AJ gave a crooked grin. He had no doubt who was behind the door.
At the first sight of Nick, AJ glanced at Brian. In fact, everyone looked at Brian for any sign of anything on his face. Nothing.
Which must have been difficult because Nick looked a mess. His hair had cobwebs stuck in them. His black tux was blotched with collected dust. His tie was out of place and the knees of his pants were messed up and white.
Brian stood up and walked to the door as quickly and as dignified as he could. But Nick wrestled him down to the floor. Brian was trying to escaped.
"Brian, we have to do this," Nick told him.
Brian stopped struggling. His voice became a low, unearthly tone. "Let go of me, Nicholas or I swear I will break your arm."
Nick shook his head and got of him, continuing to hold him down. "Sorry, Rok." AJ helped Nick pull Brian on the couch.
"You are all pricks for doing this to me," Brian growled. He stood up.
"SITdown, Brian!" Kevin yelled. "We are not leaving this goddamned room until we resolve this!"
Brian didn't move. "Why should I listen to someone who deceived me? You all lied! You lied to me and Nick!"
