He was everything to him. He values everything about him. His kindness, his big heart for everything that lives and exists.

~Love letter to you ~ Song by Robin Sinclair

You were everything I need

Your heart's too big for your feet but you keep on moving.

Whenever you smile at me it keeps me going. With the sunflower shoes you got me I keep moving. Whenever you hold me the world slows down around me and you.

He opened his eyes and was laying in bed with Simon's on his chest. The both of them were naked with no blankets. He looked around for Marty, their partner. He then remembered that Marty left to look for a gig close to their home. They were hoping to do one more gig and then go on a vacation for at least a month or two. That was Marty always working whether it's a masterpiece or just simple things. He looked all into the balcony that had to be wide open. He gets flashbacks of the night before. It was Simon's birthday, they just came back from the party.

Marty sneakily leaves his hotel room to go to theirs. Robin immediately pulls them in, looking around to make sure no one's watching. Robin begins to open Simon's birthday present using Marty's switchblade. The problem is the switchblade accidentally retracts cutting Robin's hand in the process. Blood poured out of his hand in very thin drops and Simon froze. Marty immediately grabs a towel on the top drawer and guides Robin to the bathroom. Most hotel bathrooms in their area have birthday kits in case someone hurts themselves. They always found it very convenient.

Robin woke up in the middle of the bathroom light reflected on the mirror in front of him. He woke up to see Marty fast asleep, he set up a little to see if Simon was over fast asleep. But instead he sees Simon in the bathroom holding the bloody towel. He was still pretty tired but so it was all a blur. He just told Simon "get back to bed, we got things to do tomorrow?" before going back to sleep himself holding Marty.

He smiled because he woke up to a beautiful view nonetheless. Simon opens his eyes too and Robin kisses him on the head. Simon came back right before getting up off the bed. "Hey what were you up to last night?" Robin asked. Simon strangely responded "I throw out the bloody towel. I didn't want the hotel staff to be freaking out." Robin was a bit confused but he ultimately accepted his answer.

Their phone starts ringing Robin answers it. While Simon goes to take a shower and get ready.

"Dude I just got us a gig back in our hometown."

"Cool, what time are you guys heading out? Next time tell us when you leave. I was worried for a second."

"I'm really sorry, we're in the lobby at 9:00 a.m. It's 8:30 right now."

"It's fine, love you."

"You too."

He hangs up and Simon yells "come in the shower!" which makes Robin smile. He goes into the bathroom after a few minutes they come out, get changed, pack up their things. They got down to the lobby and met up with the rest of the group. They all head back into well used to be a school bus but are now they're tour bands. They had their agent / manager through a video call.

It was a small discussion, nothing too brash. Matter of fact the only reason why Sapphire called was to check on her nephew Robin Sinclair.

"Robin" she called for him she was aware he was in the passenger seat. He was so focused on Simon to listen. Unfortunately for him his auntie is persistent. "Robin Sinclair I know you're in the passenger seat. Get the fuck over here now."

He finally trusts and gets up and goes to sit in front of the laptop. "Hi auntie."

"Your father's expecting you home, pay a visit to your brother."

"I know, Auntie. I was planning on it."

"It's bad enough, you stopped talking to us but you're hiding things. why the secrecy in this."

"You know why, Auntie."

She bit her tongue not wanting to argue.

"Fine, who are they? Or what are you hiding?"

Marty takes the wheel to give Simon a break from driving. Simon walks by the camera. Sapphire can see him clearly do the video call. She froze in fear and shock.

"Auntie??" Robin asks in total confusion of her strange reaction. She hangs up.

Marty was the drummer, Amira was the guitarist and Ren, Simon's sister, was the lead singer. Robin was also the lead singer as well. Unfortunately for Robin, Ren doesn't exactly like him. It all started when Robin laid his head on Marty's lap during a barbecue at their house. Throughout the whole night Ren made it very obvious that she wanted to hook up with Marty. When she saw that Robin was laying his head on his lap, she was infuriated. She tried to beat the shit out of him. Marty defended him of course and so did Simon. Simon was the songwriter, he's also Robin's boyfriend at this time. It was pretty easy to know which side to pick. Simon never really had a good relationship with his sister. They both hated each other despite being twins. She made some very derogatory remarks towards him or what she calls "people like him", to the point where Simon straight up left the house and never came back.

Ever since then Ren always had beef with Robin. Even though Robin never held any ill feelings towards her. Their hatred is one-sided.

She tried to cause a scandal by pretending to be with Marty in front of the cameras. Which pissed off Marty a lot, he ended up yelling at her to grow up and cut it out.

Sapphire Sinclair and Ivory Sinclair run a talent agency. They were agents and managed the band. They're the ones who came up with a band name, The Forsaken Ghosts. Marty came up with it and the whole band liked it.

Robin was a bit mad but he looked at Simon, he couldn't help but smile. He sat back in the passenger seat. Marty was cracking jokes with Simon and was eating jerky despite Simon being a Vegan. Simon didn't really care much, he still loves Marty nonetheless. They have weird conversions over jerky and soda.

"That is why I think the Texas chainsaw massacre is telling us about society and cannibalism."

"We're all cannibals, Marty."

Robin sat down, Simon could tell Robin didn't like what he said. When Marty went back to draw some more. He gives Robin a wink, implying that he was kidding. Simon gently grabs Robin's hand and kisses it "sorry baby, I didn't mean it. "

Robin smiled at him.

Day turns to night on the road trip. Everyone else was sleeping, so Simon and Robin were the only ones awake. Robin was posting some pictures of last night's party. His favorite one was Marty and Simon goofing around in a video. They had boxes in their heads and started to just dance around. It was funny for the most part until Marty just vomited. He went to the bathroom and drank some water to sober up afterwards. It was gross but funny nonetheless.

"Hey Robin, I have something important to tell you."

"Ok.. what about?" Robin asks, sounding very concerned. It was silent for a moment.

"You remember I went to the doctors last weekend right?"

"Yeah, what happened? Did they tell you anything about your health problem?"

"Turns out, it is really really bad for me to be vegan with my health problems."

"What do you mean?"

"The doctor said My body has strangely started rejecting the food I've been eating. I was losing weight rapidly."

"Holy shit, did he say why?

"He doesn't know either, but he told me to eat a small piece of meat to see if I gain the weight back. If I did, I should see Dr. Sinclair."

"My dad, Why?"

"The doctor said whatever is going on with me has something to do with my family genetics and your father specializes in that field."

"No he doesn't, to be honest I don't know what he does half the fucken time."

"I don't know but I need to find what is wrong with me."

"Ok I'm going with you."

"Of course, why would you?"

"Dr. Sinclair studies monsters, not just Genetics." Robin and Simon both turn around to see Marty awake. He was drawing a wolf-like figure using black chalk. He dirty his hands but he isn't the person to care about those sorts of things. He's an artist before anything else.

"Monsters, what kind of drugs is he on?"

"He says it's for biology, they get a greater sense of genetics and family history."

"How do you know this Marty?"

"I over here people's conversations, it's a pretty dumb habit to have. I do background checks on everyone because my paranoid ass can't sit down for more than a second."

"That's not your fault Marty and it isn't paranoia. You just refused to be lazy at some points."

"Why don't you come sit with us, so you don't wake anybody else up." Simon asked

He does and for the rest of the ride there they chatted and joked around. They arrived at a white house with brown tile roofing. It had a big porch and brown stairs. It also had this porch swing, couch like, it can hold the weight of five people. There was a boy sitting there with a big dog and a half asleep little dog, 17 year intellectually disabled Maury, the kid brother of Marty. Marty hopped out of the school bus and stood there on the lawn in the most cartoon-ish manner. Both dogs looked at him in a playful manner. He runs in the opposite direction which causes the dogs to chase him.
