Austin kept to himself for the most part, listening to the others conversations as they talked about nothing or everything. He missed the times that Tim spent with him sharing their hopes and dreams but now all he did was wonder when and why he had been replaced by Chance. He questioned his anger towards Chance, the hint of jealousy he had burning deep within.

"What the hell has happened to me, to us, we were once brothers. Now I feel like a stranger in my own family" he thought to himself as he walked along.

"Helloooo, earth to Austin...come in Austin" teased Tim snapping his fingers in front of his face.

"Hey, what.." he responded pushing Tim's fingers out from in front of his face.

"Do you want to join us or not. I've been asking you for the last five minutes or so" Tim replied with a bit of sarcasm.

Rob winced at his tone, unsure how Austin was about to react knowing he was already pissed off.

Austin took a deep breath. It took all the strength he could muster up not to blow up at Tim. And yet again he had no understanding of why.

"Yeah, sure" he barely remarked.

"Dude, you better snap out of this. We can't afford any public display of discord, especially after all the media attention with Jenika" whispered Rob.

Clearing his throat, he changed his tone and spoke as he used to towards Tim. Rob was right, they didn't need anymore negative attention.

Walking through the park seemed to lighten the mood for everyone. The small babbling brook, the natural floral surroundings, the tall draping trees, every bit brought calmness to each as they walked along. Rob snapped a few selfies to send back to Kelsey as well as for his posts for Instagram. Adam was mimicking the birds, squirrels and the rustling of the trees from the slight breeze as he walked behind Chance and Tim. Every so often he caught the two lightly brush the backs of their hands against one another as they walked in silence. He knew, he'd know for a very long time what the actual connection between the two was, especially when Chance finally revealed his illness years back. It was love, a different love, one neither had ever had before and unfortunately one that was not welcomed by or even understood by many, including Austin.

"Hey Rob, take our picture" Tim called out as he and Chance stood upon a small bridge that span over the brook.

Laughing, Rob obliged. Tim most likely was up to something like about to toss Chance over into the water as a practical joke. Much to his surprise Tim stood behind Chance and placed his hands on his hips snuggling up behind him. Chance laughed slightly as Tim neared closer telling Rob when to snap the photo. Austin watched, shaking his head, "Y'all going to prom together or what" he tried to joke though watching the kidding around by the two brought more unexplained jealousy.

"Rob, put that comment with the photo" Tim laughed.

Rob looked at him with a sheepish grin as he placed his finger to the corner of his mouth before pushing the send button to Instagram. "All set sweet cheeks" he giggled.

"Aww, you guys are asses. We don't need any more crap from our fans then y'all go do something stupid like this. We're going to get protested again" Austin stated with discontent.

"Red, lighten up. We're just having some fun, just like we always do. What's your problem" Tim replied.

"What's my problem? What about what's your problem, huh. You...you're..ya know what, just forget it..just friggin forget it" Austin stammered as he began to briskly walk away.

Adam immediately stepped in front of him, "Don't..you stay here and talk..to all of us..here..now. This bullshit of yours needs to stop"

"My bullshit, what about his..." Austin remarked before Tim took him by the shoulder, spinning him to face him.

Staring into his face, the glare Tim gave him was intimidating.

"Cut the bullshit. You have something to say, then say it now" Tim demanded.
