Welcome to the Family (On Hold Until Further Notice)

I never expected to fall in love with him... I never expected my life to change they way it did. But it happened... and I don't regret any of it. This is my story of how four guys (and one angel) unknowingly saved my life, made it better, and helped me through my personal struggles and demons.

*Warning: This story contains strong language, sexual content, and content that may be triggering, such as self-harm, rape, flashbacks, death, suicidal thoughts/actions, and others. Read at your own risk, and remember, suicide is never worth it! I love you all :) *

*I do not own any part of Avenged Sevenfold or the guys. I only own the story and my character, Ashlynn :) *

*A/N: You have probably realized that Jimmy is not in this story. Let me explain why. I love Jimmy and have nothing against him at all. Believe me, I would have put Jimmy in my story, but I couldn't. The story would have changed. Drastically. The storyline does revolve around Jimmy in more ways than it seems, however. You'll just have to wait and see what they are.*
