Between a Little Piece of Heaven and the Danger Line

Comin' In Hot

I could feel my jaw drop in shock, he wanted to get away for the weekend, just the two of us? Alone? Our first get away as a couple? It was something I had only dreamed of. I was still in shock when he pulled his hand from me and backed up a step.

“You don't want to go do you?” He asked, head down and hands in his pockets. I recoiled, how could he think that? It was so far from the truth, I wanted nothing more than to go away with him.

“Brian Elwin Haner Jr.” I middle named him, trying to sound stern, he looked up a scowl forming on his face, “I would love nothing more than to go away with you.” I stepped closer to him, closing off the distance between us, and wrapped my arms around him. “If. You. Had. Waited. A. Second. Before. Jumping. To Conclusions. You. Would. Have. Known. That.” I emphasized each word with a quick kiss in a different spots on his face. I felt him smiling as I place on last kiss on his mouth, and smirked into his lips.

“You really want to go with me?” I nodded, ever since his dad kicked him out of his house he'd been insecure. I tried not to let my annoyance show, especially since he's been so understanding with all of my insecurity's, but it was getting hard. Then again he probably felt the same way.

“Babe, lets hop in the car and go.” I tugged on his arm and watched as the corners of his mouth turned up, it was breathtaking, a real smile. I knew he thought I couldn't tell that he hadn't been truly happy, but I could, and it was tearing me apart. Was this what it felt like for him? I hoped to hell it wasn't, because I had put him through horrible things, and if this is what it felt like, I don't know how he was still able to put a smile on his face. It killed me when he got like this.

“Zacky as much as I would love to hop in the car right now, I have to plan this weekend out, I want it to be perfect.” He smiled and nuzzled into my neck, I wrapped my arms around him.

“Don't you know, everything's perfect when I'm with you.” He wrapped his arms around me tighter, and placed a tender kiss on my temple, sending tingles through my body. We stood like that for a few minutes, until a camera flash broke us apart. We turned in the direction the flash came from, and a group of girls were standing by a tide pool, each looking equally bored, a tiny camera in one of their hands. One kicked at some sand and they all walked in a different direction.

“...-pid fucking project due tomorrow, need a fucking “A” or I'm failing, dammit.” One was growling as the group walked past, paying no mind to us. When they were out of hearing distance me and Brian both looked at each other an busted out laughing.

“Remember those days Zee?” He asked, still laughing. I nodded, we were always almost failing one class or another. “let's go back to your place and get ready to go out later. I think you've done a good job in cheering me up enough to go out.” He smirked, and I leaned in closer to him as we changed directions and headed back to my place. We walked in silence, enjoying the heat of the Californian sun, it was Mid-April now, and the heat was coming in at a gentle pace. It would really start to be boiling hot in a couple weeks, and it would truly be home. We were walking up the small path in my back yard, It started at the bottom of my deck and ended at an old looking gate that opened onto the beach, it was amazing though, I loved how my house clashed with the worn, faded fence/gate it was homey, when my phone started going off.

“Hello? … Why? … Fine.” I sighed into the phone and pulled Brian into the house with me, and headed straight for my office, ignoring his questions. When we got into the small room I logged onto the bands Facebook page. As soon as it loaded my screen was enveloped with thousands of fan messages.

Who cares if Zacky and Syn are gay? Who isn't these days? =P
Why would the quality of the music A7X makes change if the guitarists are fucking each other, you obviously still rock!
I'll love A7X foREVer. Even if it is just a bunch of Synacky now. =D

Those were just the ones that caught my eyes, I opened up a new tab and pulled up the bands Twitter, it was the same, thousands of @replys, all in support of me and Brian. We looked at each other, disbelief on each of our faces. This was something that we could only dream of happening.

“How is it that complete strangers can accept us for who we are, and my own dad can't?” I heard Brian mumble to himself, looking in awe at the screen. I grabbed his hand, and squeezed it three times, a sign that my mom always told me meant “I love you” a squeeze for each word. He squeezed my hand in return, and kissed my cheek. “You know we should probably make that video we've been talking about. I know I wanted to put it off until I heard from my dad, but this made me realize I have people out there that love me no matter what, and if he can't accept me for who I am then fuck'im.” My heart pounded in my chest, he was ready to come out in the open? An elated smile came onto my face.

“Okay, where do you want to film it?” I asked him, my lisp becoming slightly more noticeable. He grinned, he had always loved my lisp. I kissed his nose, and picked up the video camera that was located on the shelf beside me. There were still boxes everywhere, but I started to unpack my office while Brian was at his interview.

“Let's do it in your back yard, facing the ocean, that sound good?” He asked sweetly, a small smirk on his face, I nodded a little lost in his eyes. He held out his hand and led me outside, we set the camera up, and began recording.

“Hey everybody, it's Zacky Vengeance and Synyster Gates here.” I started, my hands were in my lap figiting with a loose thread, I was nervous, but Brian reached over and took it into his. I cleared my throat and continued, “By now I'm sure you've seen the pictures of us together, or at least heard about it.” I took a deep breath, and opened my mouth but Brian cut me off.

“What Zacky's trying to say is that we're together.” He interjected, and brought my hand up, placing a delicate kiss on my knuckles.

“Yes, we are, it's something that we've been skirting around for years now, but Jimmy's passing has made us realize that life's too short not to be with the person you love.” I was looking at Brian at this point, the camera didn't matter, the people who were going to watch this later didn't matter, all that mattered was the way Brian made me feel. He grinned at me and leaned in pressing our foreheads together, we looked into each others eyes, and everything around us disappeared. He smiled and mouthed 'I love you,' I grinned and mouthed 'I love you too.' Before moving my head back, and looking at the camera.

“We wanted to post a video instead of a blog because it felt to impersonal, you couldn't see the emotion behind words on a screen, we wanted this to feel personal because we owe that to our fans. If it wasn't for our fans, we wouldn't be where we are today, and we wanted you to know the truth first hand. We weren't sure when we were going to officially announce our relationship until twenty minutes ago when we logged onto the bands Facebook and saw all the positive comments, and we wanted to thank each and everyone of you for your continued support.” We said a few other things, mostly about the new record, never disentangling our hands from each other. After a quick edit, we posted the video on Avengedsevenfold.com and posted the links on Twitter, Facebook, and MySpace. Then I turned the computer off, we were after all going on a date weren't we?

“I believe we were heading out weren't we?” I asked Brian coyly, a mischievous grin on my face. He grinned back and we left the house. We got in his car, and he drove around for a while we talked about everything and nothing, and finally ended up at a movie theater. He paid for our tickets and a large Mountain Dew to split with three boxes of Sour Patch Kids, I honestly couldn't tell you what the movie was about, I was to wrapped up in the feeling of having everything in the open.

The movie let out and Brian's phone started ringing, his eyes showed uncertainly when he looked at the screen, “Hey dad,” He sounded glum, I squeezed his hand as he listened to what his had had to say, and his face began to light up, “Really?!?!” He chimed, a new light taking over his features, “Bye dad, I love you too.” He hung up the phone and hugged me close, “I finally have my dad back.” He breathed, I could feel his tears of happiness as they hit the side of my neck.
