Welcome to the Family, Adrian!
Chapter Two
I ended up waking up on my own the next day at 6:45. I tried to go back to slee[ but, I ended up getting up and going to get breakfast. Stella was surprised to see me walking into the kitchen at 7:15 in the morning.
"Adrian, what are you doing up?" She asked, surprised.
"I woke up about a half hour ago but, I couldn't get back to sleep," I replied, pulling my last monster out of the fridge.
"Adrian, it's too early fo ran energy drink," Stella told me.
"Do you realize that I have woken up an hour and 15 minutes before I wanted to? If I don't have this, I will be falling asleep while out to lunch with my dad," I explained.
"Alright, fine, you can have it," Stella gave in. "Since you're up, you should eat then go get ready for the day."
"On it," I said, taking a drink from my monster. "Do we have any poptarts?"
"Uhm, I don't think so, sorry sweetie," Stella replied
"It's okay," I replied and ran up to my room.
I searched my closet for a clean Avenged Sevenfld shirt, a purple tank top, and a pair of shorts. I picked out a pair of black, white, and purple plaid converse. I took a shower, brushed my teeth, and then got out. Yes, I brush my teeth in the shower, Don't judge me.
I dried myself and my hair. Then proceeded to put on my clothes and straighten my hair. I put on some black eyeliner and mascara, that's all the make-up I wear, it makes my eyes pop. I changed my peircings, metallic purple snake bites and industrials, dark purple hoops for my first, and then plain, fake diamond studs.
By the time I was finished getting ready, it was already 11:20. I ran down the stairs and sat on the couch, jamming earbuds into my ears. I was getting more and more nervous as the time went by.
At exactly 11:30, a black SUV pulled up, I guessed it was my dad but, I just went back to messing around on my phone.
There was a knock at the door and Stella answered it. There in the door way was a tall, muscular man, I recognized him immediately. He was Synyster Gates, Brian Haner, MY dad.
He looked over at me and pointed, "Hey! That's my band, on your shirt!"
"Uh, y-yeah, m-my favorite band," I stuttered. "And y-you're Synyster Gates, my d-dad."
"Yeah, you got that right!" Stella cleared her throat. "Oh, I'm Brian Haner." He introduced himself formally, reaching his tattooed arm out for a handshake, Stella returned the gesture.
"It's nice to meet you, Brian," Stella responded. "Adrian, are you ready to go?" She saked, motioning me to get up.
"O-oh, Yeah. I-I'm ready," I replied, very nervously.
"Well then, let's go!" Brian said, motioning out the door. "We'll be back later."
I jumped off the couch and ran out to his car, I hopped in and got buckled.
"So, you're name is Adrian right?" He asked when he got in the car.
"Yeah, It's short for Adriana but, I hate that name, it's too girly," I explained. "And you're Synyster Gates. Guitarist extraordinaire, my idol, and my dad?"
"I guess so," He replied with a little chuckle. "So, tell me about your life."
"Well from when I was five to when I was ten my mom abused me from her drinking problem. She started drinking because she had just got out of her four year relationship and got depressed. One night, she hit me at the top of a flight of stairs, making me fall down, almost breaking my arm. I ran to my friends house after that. His mom called the cops and she got areested. She lost her rights to see me and talk to me. And ever since then I've lived in a foster home. My foster mom and child services agent have been looking for you this whole time. I don't know why it took so long." I explained, tears started to well up in my eyes.
"Oh, I wasn't ever told that," He said with a sad tone. "So, when did you get those peircings?"
"Three years ago, that's also when I stopped being a goodie goodie. The kids at my school started to not like me because they started to find out about what happened to me. I used to get into a lot of fights at school. I ended up getting suspended for a week for each one," I looked over at my dad, he had a worried look on his face. "I have a cover band, Rift. We cover a bunch of bands, like Avenged Sevenfold," I quickly said, tyring to get his mind off of my suspentions from school.
"Oh really?" He said. "What do you play?"
"I play lead guitar and lead vocals for songs that are sung by girls but, there aren't many. My bassist does most of the singing."
"Oh, so you must be a guitarist extraordinare, too, since you play Avenged Sevenfold."
"Oh god no. We just started practicing your songs. They are very hard, you know that right?"
"Haha! They are pretty easy for me, giving the fact that I wrote them," He said then stopped at a red light. "Where do you wanna eat at?"
"Uhm.... Taco Bell?"
"Alrighty then. Taco Bell it is!"
When we got to Taco Bell, we ordered our food, sat down, and ate. Making small talk inbetween bites.
I just couldn't believe the fact that my dad, was Synyster Gates. I wanted to ask him if his band and my band could have a little practice together. I decided I would wait, at the same time, I decided I didn't want to wait to move in with him. I wanted to move in as soon as I could.
Before we got to the street my house was on, I turned to him and said, "Hey, do you think that your band and my band could meet up, and have a practice session together? Everybody in Rift loves you guys and are dying to meet you." After I said that, I got mad at myself. I was going to wait!
"Well, once you start living with me," He started. "Your band could practice with us, we could give you guys some pointers too."
I nodded in agreement. I started to think about when I was going to move in with him, tongiht? tomorrow?
We pulled into Stella's driveway and got out of the car. We walked up to the door and walked in.
"Hey, Stella!" I exclaimed happily.
"Hey, Adrian. You seem happy. Why?"
"I wanna move in with my dad as soon as possible. Not that I hate it here but, my dad is an amazing rockstar! I already know a bunch about him!"
"Stella, If it's alright with you, she can move in tonight. I won't mind at all. In fact, I would greatly enjoy the company." My dad offered.
"Please!!" I begged.
"Alright," She gave in. "Go get your stuff packed. I need to talk with Mr. Haner."
I ran upstairs to pack, wondering why Stella needed to talk with my dad.
"Adrian, what are you doing up?" She asked, surprised.
"I woke up about a half hour ago but, I couldn't get back to sleep," I replied, pulling my last monster out of the fridge.
"Adrian, it's too early fo ran energy drink," Stella told me.
