A Picture paints a thousand words
Apr. 4th, 2022 08:15 pmFrom the prompt 101 Ways to say I love you: 69. "This is my favourite picture of us."
Mick was smoking a cigarette and sitting in the hotel communal area looking through some of his treasured photographs of Ziggy and ones with both him and the singer together. Both Joe and Aarne were at the bar making a lot of noise as per usual, getting drunk and kissing each other openly. Lars was clinging onto his new man; Torden the hairy Dane while getting offered a lot of fruity cocktails it looked like. Some of the others were getting rowdy at the bar too with Viktor now gulping down half a bottle of vodka in one go as some drinking game showing off his bravado. At least they were having fun. Mick, however, just wanted a break from the craziness as he was now joined by Hans, who sat down next to the Brit guitarist glancing at the photos.
"Hey, mate. I was just looking at some photos of me and Zig from around a year or so ago. Back when I told him I loved him."
Mick showed Hans the black and white photo of them together sitting on the train having dinner together. It was one of his favourite photos of them together. The Swede nodded at the photo and thought it was very sweet. There were also photos of the Spiders on stage with Ziggy singing at the front along with ones of Mick and Ziggy holding hands walking down the streets here in LA. Who took those? Joe? Rex? There were quite a few photographers in the tour.
"Nice photos. I do like that train one though and the way Ziggy is looking at you. He loves you so much. I bet you're the same."
Nodding and smiling fondly, Mick looked up as he spotted Ziggy now entering the communal area looking around and noticing quite a few people at the bar. What was the time? It wasn't that late maybe eleven pm. Still early in rock star hours. Waving Ziggy over, Mick then offered a smile as Hans then got up and bid the two goodnight as he noticed Ollie coming down from upstairs, going to mingle with the other Danes.
"Mick? I wondered where you'd gotten to. For one moment I thought you were passed out in someone's bedroom naked on Mule."
The guitarist just laughed softly and shook his head. Not this time. He patted the seat next to him but Ziggy was already sitting down sliding his hand through Mick's soft hair. How he loved his guitarist's fluffy blond hair.
"I was just looking through all our photos, love. This one is special to me. When I first told you I loved you and well---the rest is history."
The Anthean pressed a kiss to Mick's cheek and nodded. It was one of his own favourites too more for the fact that Mick told him he loved him. That and they missed their stop because they got intimate with one another for the first time. Mick slid his arm around Ziggy, pulling his fiancee close, kissing him on the lips lovingly. Everyone was happy here and most had found partners during the tour. It really was endearing.
"So many of the lads and lasses have found love, mate. It makes me all warm inside. Does it do the same for you?"
Ziggy nodded and was now gazing at one photo where it was Mick and Minoru with their arms around each other's shoulders like good friends would or brothers. That one caught a lump in Ziggy's throat. Both his boys being friendly and sharing good times together.
"I also like this one. You and Minoru together. Aren't you cheeky?"
Mick glanced at the photo and giggled smiling. He remembered that one. Wasn't it when Minoru had asked Mick to try skateboarding or was it when he tried to parkour on a low wall, failing because he fell back onto his ass? One of the two anyway. The guitarist just stifled a laugh because the memory was still there fresh in his mind.
"Bloody fell on my backside, didn't I? Minoru wanting me to jump this tiny wall. He did it beautifully of course and me? Well, I made a right fool of myself."
Ziggy just giggled and kissed Mick's ear. The things people got up to on the tour. Joe and Aarne being some of the craziest but now the Danes were here things were even crazier. Ollie and Damien were daredevils too.
"The train will always have a special place in my heart for you, love. Me finally saying I love you after three years of self torture almost. Fuck whatever else people think. We're going to show the world."
Ziggy couldn't agree more as he rested his head against Mick's shoulder. The peace and calm of the moment was doing him good as was feeding off all the positive energy around the hotel.
