With This Ink in Our Skin We've Sealed Our Fate
Ten
"Fine, go, just come back, quickly," he said.
I giggled and kissed him. He smiled as I got up.
"You're sexy," he called as I closed the door.
"So are you!" I said, shut the door, and knocked on Matt's door.
Johnny opened the door, "Hey girl," he said, "Where's Syn?"
Dylan looked up at the mention of Syn's name, "He's still in our room."
"Indisposed?" Zacky asked with a smirk.
I flicked him off, "Anyway, Rose just called me, and her and Gerard are on their way here!"
Matt grinned, "Really? Both of my little sisters are gonna be here?"
"Out of six," I said, "Yes."
Ashlynn looked at me, "How many of you guys are there?" she asked.
"Ten, counting Matt and I," I said.
Ashlynn's eyes widened, "Damn!"
I smiled, "We get that a lot."
Johnny looked at me, "Can I talk to you?"
I nodded, "Let's go in my room. I'll return him in a minute, Ash," I said.
Ash smiled, "Just make it quick."
Johnny smiled, leaned down, and kissed her cheek, then her lips. She blushed as I stole Johnny. We went into my room and saw Brian playing with his phone, still on the bed.
"Now, what's up?" I asked.
"Last time I saw Rose, we got in a huge fight--"
"Save your breath," I said, "I know. Don't worry, she's over it," I promised.
"Really?" he asked.
I smiled, "Yeah."
"I'm gonna go smoke in my room," he said.
"Does Ash know you smoke pot?" I asked.
He shrugged, "I'm gonna do it anyway."
Brian looked at Johnny, "I'll come in a minute."
I smiled, "Me too."
He smiled, "Thanks," and left.
I looked over at Brian, who motioned me over to him. I smiled and lied down next to him, on my stomach, while he was next to me on his back.
"Hmmm, hi baby girl," he said, smiling.
I grinned and kissed him, "Hey."
He smiled, "You're my girlfriend. Bree Sanders is my girlfriend."
I kissed him again, "Brian Haner Jr is my boyfriend."
He shook his head, "Not Bree Bloodshed."
I shook my head, "Not Synyster Gates."
He kissed me, "Brielle Sanders."
I stroked his cheek, "Brian Haner."
Someone knocked on the door, "Bree! It's Ashlynn! I need to talk to you!"
I kissed Brian one more time and jumped up. When I opened the door, she was almost crying.
"Ashlynn, what's wrong?" I asked.
"Johnny. I just went to talk to him and I found him smoking."
"Is that a problem?" I asked.
"Well, he just didn't tell me that he smoked."
"Did you ask?"
"Yes!"
"Lemme go talk to him, you stay here."
I ran to Johnny's room, who opened the door as soon as I knocked. He was really high. I giggled.
"Shit, Johnny, share with a girl, won't you?"
He giggled, "Come heree," and shut the door.
I grabbed a joint and lit it as he set up his bong. He helped me take a hit and then I stared at him.
"You told Ashlynn you didn't smoke?" I asked, opening a window.
He sighed and took another hit, "Iknow, but like I didn't want her to think less of me?"
"So you lied?" I asked, taking another puff of the joint.
He shrugged, "It made sense in my head."
"Well, I don't think she likes it," I said.
He sighed, "Well, I guess we should go out with a bang then," he said, raising the bong like a glass.
I giggled and grabbed his bong. He laughed and opened his arms. I leaned against him, while he kept giving me hits off the bong. I heard someone knock on the door and I got off the couch and opened it. Smoke blew out to meet Ashlynn.
"Bree! I can't believe you!" she exclaimed.
I stumbled out of the door and shut it behind me.
"No, Ashlynn, I really did talk to him, but Johnny and I have better conversations when we're high, and this is his last time smoking."
She stared at me. I grabbed her hand and knocked on the door. Johnny opened it and saw her.
"Oh, um, Ash, this is--"
"I know, but can I talk to you?"
"Hold on," Brian said.
I giggled and reached for him. He smiled down at me.
"Baby girl, are you high?"
I giggled and rested my forehead on his chest.
"I'll take that as a yes," I heard him say.
Ashlynn looked nervous, "Girl, you don't have to smoke if you don't want to," I said.
She was sitting on Johnny's lap, who was smoking a joint.
She sighed, "I'll try it."
I smiled, "Don't feel pressured to do it."
"Well, I'm gonna be around partying if I stay around you guys, right?"
"Fuck," Brian said, "Bree, you look amazing."
I smiled as he was smoking a cigarette out the window.
"Are you high?" I asked.
"A little," he said.
I laughed and walked over to him. He threw his cigarette down and grabbed me by the waist.
"Whaat?" I whined.
He smiled and kissed me. I smiled and kissed back. He got up off the window sill and wrapped his arms around my waist. I draped my arms over his shoulder and crossed my wrists behind his head. We started making out, when I heard him say:
"Let's go to our room, sexygirl."
I smiled, "Let's go, sexyfuck."
Someone knocked on the door and Ashlynn opened it. Dylan walked in and saw what was going on.
"Oh, you guys smoke pot?" he asked.
I nodded as he took Johnny's bong. Ashlynn looked at Dylan.
"You smoke?" she asked, holding a joint between her fingers.
"Yeah, I didn't know you did," he said, taking a hit.
"It's my first time," she said.
"Dude, I want you so bad," Brian whispered in my ear.
I smiled as he kissed my neck. I walked toward the door and turned around.
"What are you waiting for?" I asked.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I smiled and started running toward her. She squealed and ran out of the door and toward our room. She got to the door and fell against it. She was trying to open the door when I put my hands on her hips and my lips on her neck, sucking lightly. She stopped and froze.
"B-Brian?"
"Yes, baby?" my voice was hoarse.
She turned around and I stared into her gorgeous eyes. I opened the door and pushed us through it. I shut the door.
"You're all mine, now, baby."
She froze again and pushed me off, "Go away!"
I stopped, "Bree?"
"Get the fuck away!" she screamed and ran back to the door.
"Baby, what the fuck is wrong?"
"Andy, go the fuck away!"
I stopped moving toward her, basically sobered, Andy?
"Bree, I'm not Andy."
She opened the door and ran toward Matt's room, "Zacky!" she screamed, banging on the door. I stood at our doorway, confused.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
"Zacky!" Bree screamed.
I opened the door, bewildered.
"Bree? What's wrong?"
"Andy's back!" she screamed, crying.
I looked around and only saw Syn.
"Dude, what the hell?" I asked.
She looked at him and screamed, then darted into the room.
I saw Val getting her a glass of water and Matt with his arms around her, whispering to her quietly and stroking her hair.
"Did you guys get high?" I asked.
He nodded, still confused.
"Did you say something about being all yours?" I asked.
He nodded again, "Zack, what the fuck is going on?"
"Hold on," I said, and went over to Bree.
"Baby girl," I whispered, not caring what Gena thought, "That wasn't Andy."
A fresh batch of tears ran down her face, "Yes it was. He said, 'You're all mine, now, baby.'"
I stroked her hair and pulled her off her feet. She clung to my waist and hid her face in my shoulder.
"Come here, we're gonna go over there," I said.
"No!" she screamed, glancing at me with bloodshot eyes.
"Baby girl, don't worry, I won't let anyone hurt you. Do you trust me?" I asked.
I looked at Gena, who looked confused.
"Tell you later," I mouthed.
She nodded as Bree said, "Yes, I trust you, Zack."
I walked her slowly over to the door, where Syn was leaning against the wall, looking pissed.
"Dude, are you okay?" I asked.
He shook his head, "I fucked up, didn't I?"
"Only slightly, but this can be fixed."
Bree looked at Syn, and her grip tightened around me.
"Baby girl," I said, "Do you know that this isn't Andy?" I asked.
She looked at him, looked at me, but didn't say a word.
I motioned for Syn to come over to us. He stood in front of her.
"Baby girl, how did Andy touch you?"
"He fucking hurt," she whispered, "He never listened when I said stop."
"And did he stop before when you said stop?"
She nodded. Matt was watching us.
"Matt, come here!"
Matt walked up to us, "What?"
"Can you take her over there and find out how high she is?"
He nodded and looked down at Bree, "Come with me?"
She nodded and grabbed his hand. He took her a little ways down the hall.
"Do you remember a guy who kinda looked like you that she was hooking up with?"
He nodded, "Yeah."
"He raped her," I said bluntly.
His eyes widened, "Can I see her?"
"When Matt comes back with her, you gotta show her that you aren't like Andy. Kiss her gently," I told him, "And when she says stop, don't take too long to stop."
He nodded and Matt walked her over to us.
"She's still pretty high."
"Baby girl," I said, "You need to talk to him."
"Who, Andy?" she asked, getting nervous.
"No, it's Brian, your boyfriend," he said helplessly.
"You look like Andy," she said nervously.
He walked forward, "Baby girl, I'm not."
She seemed to calm down a little, "How can I be sure?"
"I'll stop when you tell me to. I won't make you do anything you aren't comfortable with because I waited so long to be with you."
She looked at him, then passed out. Thankfully, Matt caught her. As soon as she hit his arms, she woke up.
"Whoa," she looked around, "That was fucking weird."
I looked at her, "Who is that?" and pointed at Brian.
"Uh, my boyfriend?" she said, then her face dropped, "Fuck, I did it again, didn't I?"
I nodded, and she looked at Brian. He looked really nervous. She started to cry again, and he wrapped his arms around her. She leaned against his chest.
"I didn't snort any coke," she cried.
Brian stroked her hair, "What the fuck?"
I sighed, "She hallucinates when she does coke about Andy," I explained, "But she didn't snort coke."
He shook his head, "I've been with her since she came here from the airport."
"Maybe the pot was laced with coke," Matt said.
"Brian, can we go inside?" she asked quietly.
He nodded, "Sure, baby girl."
I giggled and kissed him. He smiled as I got up.
"You're sexy," he called as I closed the door.
"So are you!" I said, shut the door, and knocked on Matt's door.
Johnny opened the door, "Hey girl," he said, "Where's Syn?"
Dylan looked up at the mention of Syn's name, "He's still in our room."
