And you will never be forgotten with me by your side

Zacky looked at Meghan, his actions were completely innocent. Of course, he thought about about keeping here there in case any kissing did happen. But after last night, he wasn't about to pressure her into doing anything that she wasn't comfortable with.

"I only brought you back here so I could have you all to myself, but if you want to go hang out with everyone then we can. I thought it would be nice if we could just talk, but it's all up to you darling." He told her honestly as he looked at her, he chuckled softly while also shaking his head lightly.

"You can't be serious, have you seen yourself recently? You're gorgeous Meghan, none of the models I have hired compare to you and no I'm not saying this so I can get into your pants. I really mean it, just think about my offer." He hoped that she would think about his offer, he usually only hired new models when he wasn't on tour as he wanted to be there and make sure the models were correct for his company.

He grinned as his eyes ran over her features, "I have to make a living somehow. You tell me the stuff that you want and I'll get it all for you," He didn't mind giving her free stuff, he wanted to spoil her rotten and he would make sure that he could.

Eleanor laughed when she watched Jimmy take off running towards the back lounge, "That wasn't very nice." She looked at Brian as they were sitting rather close beside each other, not that Eleanor minded of course. "I decided on watching The Dark Knight," She not only loved the movie but she would also be able to perv on Bruce Wayne, she wasn't sure who had brought the movie onto the bus but she liked whoever did even more now.

She grabbed the remote control and pressed the play button, she made herself comfortable on the couch and even leaned into Brian's side as the movie begun to play. She took a large handful of popcorn and placed the buttery goodness into her mouth, her eyes were trained on the television screen as she didn't want to miss a moment of the film.

Even if she had seen the movie a good handful of times, that wasn't the point. She moved her knees closer to her body so she could curl up slightly besides Brian.

@ sugarplum.
"No, I'm fine with just hanging out with you back here for a little while," Meghan said. She leaned into Zacky, bringing her legs up onto the couch so that she could curl up against him. The more she thought about it, the more she realized that she really wanted to have some alone time with Zacky before they hung out with everybody else. After all, who would turn down an opportunity to hang out with a guy as good-looking and sweet as Zacky.

"I'll think about it," Meghan said, smiling. She tried not to blush because Zacky called her gorgeous. But if Zacky was serious about wanting her to be a model for his company, then she could at least give the offer a serious thought. She looked up at Zacky, her smile transforming into a sort of half-smirk. "But if you were trying to get into my pants, it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing," Meghan giggled. "As long as you don't expect it to happen right away."

Meghan leaned in close to Zacky, pressing her lips against his. As they kissed, she reached for one of his hands and moved it underneath her shirt, placing it so that his thumb just barely grazed her bra. Hopefully Zacky wouldn't be mad at her for teasing him a little. She just didn't want him to think she wasn't interested.

"Hey, hey, hey what the hell is going on in here?" Jimmy's voice shouted. Meghan broke away from Zacky, quickly pulling his hand off of her. She buried her face in his chest, feeling her face heat up dangerously. How embarrassing.

---

Brian chuckled. "Whoever said I was nice?" he asked. He'd just been joking though, he really hadn't expected Jimmy to run back there. He just hoped he hadn't caused the drummer to catch Zacky and Meghan in any compromising positions. Brian grinned when he heard Eleanor's movie selection. "Ah, one of my favorites. This is actually my movie, if you ever wanna borrow it."

With one hand holding the popcorn, Brian looped his arm around Eleanor's waist, resting his hand somewhat innocently on her thigh. This was his typical movie move, and if it were just him and Eleanor, he might've even attempted a little make out session. But he didn't want to do that with Matt, Johnny, and Jimmy in the room, so he'd settle for cuddling.

"Comfortable?" Brian chuckled to Eleanor, feeling her curl up close to him. He moved his hand to rest on her hipbone and drew her a little closer, so that she was practically laying in his lap. "You can use me as a pillow if you want."

"Good," As long as Meghan thought about modeling than he would be happy, he only brought it up because he knew she'd be wonderful at it. But if she decided not to take him up on his offer, then he would drop the whole subject until she brought it up again.

He leaned in slightly when her lips pressed to his, he let her move his arm to wherever she wanted. His thumb lightly rubbed her soft skin but didn't move over her bra strap, this was more than enough for him right now because he knew nothing else was going to happen yet and that was fine with him.

Zacky was slightly offended by what Meghan thought of him, "Do you really think I'm that kind of guy who just wants sex straight away?" He frowned as he knew he didn't come across like that either in person or in interviews, it hurt him knowing that is what Meghan saw of him and it did put him in a crappy mood.

He pulled back from her and looked at his friend, "Nothing is fucking happening Jimmy. Can't you just leave us alone for a second," He looked at his friend as Jimmy really needed to stop with how he's acting, he wasn't going to fuck Meghan on the bus and now he didn't know what would happen between them.

---

Eleanor smiled as she looked at Brian, "Well I thought you were nice. But now I've seen a completely different side of you," She joked with him as she had expected him to tell Jimmy where Zacky and Meghan were, she was sure if they had been alone then someone would have done the same thing.

"If I borrow it, you'll never get it back." She smiled as it was true, well she'd eventually give the movie back to him but it would most likely be after the tour was finished. But if he ever let Eleanor wear one of his shirts, then he would never have it back. He'd only see it when she was wearing it, but he wouldn't have it back in his arms ever again.

Eleanor smiled as she felt Brian move her even closer to him, "Very comfortable." She smiled as she cuddled into him and rested her head against his shoulder, she grabbed some more popcorn to eat as she didn't want to move from her spot near Brian.

@ sugarplum.
"No, I don't think that, I..." Meghan stopped. Her attempt at flirting and being sexy had obviously failed and now she was embarrassed. She never was very good at it, unless she was drunk like she was last night. Relationships had never been her strong point though, so it made sense. "I'm sorry," she whispered. She moved away from him a little.

Jimmy had retreated at this point, which meant that Meghan was alone with Zacky again. And now that he was mad at her, she felt awkward and she just wanted to go in the living room with everybody else. "I don't think you're a bad guy," Meghan said. "I'm just not very good at flirting unless I'm drunk."

"Do you wanna stay back here a little longer or are you tired of me now?" Meghan said, laughing dryly. She hoped a small joke would help lighten the mood. She really was kicking herself about what she said, just like she always did.

---

Brian smiled, turning his head to press a kiss to Eleanor's temple. He started twirling her blonde curls through his tattooed fingers. She really looked beautiful to him right now, when she wasn't all dolled up. He'd always liked natural beauty better. Well, he had since he'd decided he was done fucking groupies. Brian tightened his grip on her waist, wanting her as close to him as possible.

"I'm really enjoying having you so close to me," Brian whispered to her. He grazed his fingers along the top of her thigh. "I mean, what guy wouldn't like having such a pretty girl cuddling with them?"

"Brian, you are so full of shit," Matt laughed. Brian frowned at him. He might be laying it on a little thick, but he meant everything he said. He was really starting to like Eleanor and he was glad he hadn't tried to sleep with her right away.

Zacky shook his head, "That wasn't what I'd call flirting Meghan. You made me sound like I'd pressure you into having sex with me," He looked at her, "I wasn't going to suggest that we have sex and I wasn't going to make any moves on you. We hardly know each other, I'm not talking to you because I want sex. I actually like you," He told her as he wanted her to know that.

His feelings were still hurt, to him what she said wasn't flirting or joking. "I still want to get your clothes off, who wouldn't but I'm not going to ruin things with you just because I want to be with you." He assured her as he leaned back into the couch.

"If you want to go hang out with them, you can. But I would like to talk to you, get to know you better. Things were going a little bit fast," He admitted which didn't really make him feel manly, but he wanted to do this right.

---

Eleanor blushed when she heard what Brian whispered to her, "Shh Matthew. Be quiet," She told him as she looked over at him, her eyes moved back onto Brian as a smile formed on her face. "You can keep going," She loved it when a guy would say sweet things to her or just be romantic, she was a real sucker for sweet things.

"You just got burned, dude." Johnny laughed as he watched Matt's face fall when Eleanor told him off, he was liking her even more now.

"I like cuddling with you too, maybe if you play your cards right then we can continue to cuddle." Eleanor wouldn't need Brian to play his card right, because she'd let him cuddle with her whenever he wanted. She liked Brian, more than what she expected to honestly.

She'd never gone out with a bad boy type before, but Brian was different. He was cocky but there was also a softer side to him, which she really wanted to see more of.

@ sugarplum.
Meghan buried her face in her hands. She was so embarrassed that she felt like she might start crying. She hated that Zacky thought she thought he was only talking to her because he wanted to sleep with her. If he did, he would've done it last night. "I'm sorry," Meghan mumbled. "I'm an idiot. I really don't think that's all you want."

Meghan reached out and took Zacky's hand, threading their fingers together. She couldn't help but worry that she'd really just fucked things up with Zacky. But she hoped that she hadn't. "I know that you'd never pressure me to do anything I don't want to do," she said. "I'm just not used to guys wanting to take things slow. But I really like you too, and I'd like to get to know you more before we actually have sex."

Meghan leaned against Zacky's chest, looking over at a point across the room. What she was about to tell him wasn't something anyone really knew about, besides Eleanor of course. "And I'm not usually any guy's first choice, I usually have to sleep with them or do...things for them to keep them interested in me. But you're obviously not like that and I'm sorry if I made it seem that way."

---

"Well that's good," Brian said, smiling. He thought it was hilarious that Eleanor had told Matt off and it made him like her even more. "I've got all aces baby, it's impossible for me not to play them right." He grinned. He would do whatever it took to spend more time with Eleanor, especially if they were cuddling, which he was really starting to like.

Brian shifted so that Eleanor was actually sitting in his lap. He stretched out his legs along the couch, putting his feet in Johnny's lap, and moved Eleanor to lay next to him. He then gently turned her over so that they were laying face to face. "You're so beautiful, did you know that?" he whispered to her. He wanted to be sure none of the other guys heard him. "And I'll talk sweet to you as much as you want."

Brian smiled again before leaning forward and pressing his lips to Eleanor's. He was really starting to enjoy kissing her, too. He moved his hand to the back of her neck, twisting his fingers through her blonde curls and deepening the kiss. This was as much as he could do on the couch, but he really didn't mind. He moved his other hand to her waist, pulling her hips flush against his.

"You guys are gross," he heard Johnny mumble, and he smiled against Eleanor's lips.

Zacky laced his fingers with Meghan's, "I do know that. Don't be sorry, I just took your words wrong." He told her as he didn't want to upset or embarrass her, "I will take things as slow as you want. So we're both comfortable, I've done things fast with groupies before and I'm ashamed of that. I'm not that guy anymore, you're extra special to me." He grinned as he wrapped his tattooed arms around her small waist, his finger tips running along her back.

"Well you'll be my first and only choice, you have nothing to worry about." He promised her as he couldn't understand how any guy wouldn't choose Meghan first over every other woman around, Meghan was an absolute stunner and Zacky still couldn't believe that she was interested in him.

He moved his hands up to cup her cheeks gently in his palms, "I'm the luckiest guy in the world. You're so beautiful, Meghan. So gorgeous," He whispered to Meghan before he placed his lips against her's tenderly, he wanted to show her how important she was to him. Show her that she didn't have to have sex with him or do any other sexual things to him, just to keep him interested. He was already interested in her.

---

Eleanor couldn't help but smile, she really hoped that Brian did hold all the aces in his hand. "I'm sure you do," She smiled at him as he gently moved her so they were now laying on the couch together, she normally wouldn't do things like this when other people were around but she honestly didn't care about Matt, Jimmy or Johnny right now.

"No, but if you keep telling me that I am. I'm sure I'll believe it soon enough," She whispered to him as she wanted to be honest with Brian, she knew she was good looking but she never thought she was beautiful. But hearing it come from Brian, she wanted to think that she was beautiful although she wouldn't get tired of hearing him say it to her.

Eleanor's eyes slowly shut as Brian's lips pressed against her's, she relaxed into his embrace and rested her hands on his firm chest. She smiled when she heard Johnny, so she used her feet to gently nudge him until he got the hint and moved somewhere else in the bus. Her heart was racing in her chest and she was certain that Brian would be able to hear it, kissing him was different and she was really enjoying how he was making her feel.

@ sugarplum.
Meghan's eyes fluttered closed when Zacky kissed her. He said that he was lucky, but really, she felt like she was the lucky one. Because first of all, she was sitting in the back lounge kissing Zacky Vengeance. There was no telling how many girls' dreams she was living. And besides that, he was calling her beautiful and gorgeous and all kinds of words she wasn't used to hearing. And he cared about her, enough to take things at a slower pace.

Meghan pressed against Zacky as they kissed, forcing him onto his back. At this point she broke the kiss and instead buried her face in his neck, listening to the sound of him breathing above her head. "This may sound a little creepy, but I've always wondered what it be like to cuddle with you," Meghan said, giggling softly. "It's very nice, just like I expected. And so are the kisses. I wondered about those, too."

Meghan laid in Zacky's arms for a few more minutes, the sounds of his heartbeat and breathing starting to put her to sleep. But she could hear everyone else talking and laughing in the living room and as much as she was enjoying this time with Zacky, Meghan watch to hang out with the other guys as well. "Maybe we should go into the living room now," she suggested.

---

"I can't believe I gave up my seat so you two could make out," Johnny whined from his spot on the floor. Brian reached out with his foot and gently kicked Johnny in the head. He was really ruining the mood. "Ow you asshole, that hurt."

"Johnny, watch your language in front of the ladies," Brian chided. He placed his hands over Eleanor's ears. "It's not polite."

"Neither is playing grab-ass on the couch," Johnny grumbled.

Brian chuckled, turning his attention to Eleanor. "Don't listen to him," he said to her. He hadn't even come close to touching Eleanor's ass, as tempting as that was, because she certainly had a nice one. But Brian was a gentleman. He moved forward and kissed Eleanor again, this time going so far as to trace her bottom lip with his tongue. That was as far as he would go for now, at least while the guys were around. "You're a really good kisser," he told her once they broke apart. He moved close again, pecking her lips again slowly and somewhat sensually. "I could kiss you forever."

Zacky snaked his arms tighter around Meghan's small frame as he wanted to make her feel secure, like nothing bad could ever happen when she was in his arms. "Trust me, that doesn't sound weird to me. I've heard a lot worse then that from fans," He chuckled softly as it was true, some fans did get out of control or they just said the creepiest things to him and the guys. They tried to ignore most of it whenever it did happen, but it still wasn't the nicest thing to hear from anyone.

"You can cuddle and kiss me whenever you like, I'd never complain darling." He assured her as it was also for his benefit, he wanted to always cuddle and kiss Meghan. So much so that she would probably begin to think he was going to be this super clingy boyfriend, he wasn't however but he still wanted to kiss Meghan every chance that he was given.

Zacky looked at her as he pouted his bottom lip out at her, "Only if you really want to go back out there. If you're certain that is a good idea," He looked at her with his green eyes, he didn't mind what they did as long as they stayed together than he'd be fine. "Fine, I guess we can go see everyone else." He huffed playfully as he was only joking, "But I'll warn you now. Brian is most likely going to be extremely close to your friend," He warned Meghan as he knew Brian, although he did seem different with Eleanor. Zacky still knew something would be going on with those two.

---

Eleanor laughed as Johnny complained about her and Brian, they were taking up the whole couch but someone could try and stop them if they wanted a seat. "There has been no ass grabbing, actually Johnny. At least being out here is stopping us from going any further," She grinned when she saw the disgust form across Johnny's face, not that she'd go any further on the bus. At least not for her first couple of times with Brian, and certainly never when the bus was filled with other people.

"We don't need to think about that, Eleanor." Jimmy huffed as he crossed his arms over his chest, he had failed at keeping the girls safe from the guys. He did want to smack Zacky and Brian until they took their filthy hands and mouths off the girls, but apparently the two techs didn't seem to mind.

Eleanor was glad that Brian hadn't tried to grab her ass, she again wanted him to do that when they had privacy. "Thank you, I've been told that I am." She teased him before she kissed his lips again in return, it was the kind of kiss that set off butterflies in her stomach and would have made her legs weak. It was also the kind of kiss that would lead into sex, if they had been in a private room together. "Why don't you? I'm not going to stop you," She whispered to him before she heard footsteps, Zacky and Meghan were heading towards the front of the bus to join them all.

@ sugarplum.
"As long as he doesn't hurt her, he can get as close to her as she lets him," Meghan laughed. Eleanor was a big girl and she could handle herself. And if she let Brian close to her, Meghan couldn't do anything to stop her. She just hoped that Eleanor wouldn't come out worse for the wear if something happened between her and Brian, because she'd hate for her best friend to be hurt again.

"Okay, let's cool it on the PDA," Meghan teased as she and Zacky walked into the living room. Eleanor and Brian were laying close on the couch, kissing. Zacky was definitely right when he said they'd be close. Meghan pulled Zacky over to an empty armchair next to the couch and had him sit down before taking a seat on his lap. She turned so that she was sideways and curled up against his chest, tucking her head underneath his chin.

"Don't you two start making out, too," Johnny said, staring hard at them from his seat on the floor. "I'm already gonna be scarred from the face-sucking going on behind me."

---

Brian rolled his eyes at the bass player's comment. "Johnny, I think you're being a little over dramatic," he drawled. He wasn't sucking Eleanor's face. Granted, their kissing had gotten a little heated, but certainly not enough to scar anybody, not even a wuss like Johnny. Brian turned his attention back to Eleanor, capturing her lips on another kiss. He didn't really want to stop kissing her, because as he'd told her, he could kiss her forever. But they had been at it for awhile and besides, Brian didn't want to risk getting...excited when he was in no position to do anything about it.

"We can continue this later, yeah?" Brian whispered to Eleanor. He gave her one last lingering kiss before pulling away, reaching up to caress her cheek with the rough pad of his thumb. No girl had ever made him feel like this before, all affectionate and tender. There was something really special about Eleanor. Brian wrapped his arms around Eleanor, shifting them both so that they were sitting again, with Eleanor completely on top of Brian's lap.

Brian looked over at Zacky, noticing how close he was with Meghan. "So Zack," he said loudly. He was trying to think of a way to embarrass his friend without being too brass or also embarrassing Meghan. Brian smirked at Zacky. "Finally get tired of kissing on your tech?"
