“It landed on the windshield of my car one night, and the next morning when I walked out to get the mail, I saw it. At first I thought someone had put it there, but after I read it, I realized you hadn’t,” He paused and smiled down at me. “I asked my managers to find you, that I wanted to help you. I guess I also wanted to help myself too. I was engaged to a wonderful – or so I thought – woman, but she turned out to be a bitch that was after my money. I need someone to love too, just as much as you.” It was then that I noticed his eyes watering. I wrapped my arms around him.

“I’ll always love you, Matt; not for your money, but because you want to help me as much as I want to help you.” He looked down at me, his eyes wide, then a shit eating grin appeared on his face.

“Thank you, Kenzie.” He then slowly closed his eyes, with a small smile on his face, and fell asleep.

I watched him sleep for a long time. His face was gorgeous, and the tattoos that covered his body were just a bonus. I had this deep feeling inside my chest, that I had never felt before, so I could only presume that it was love.

Why was it so simple? So simple to fall so deeply in love with a man that I hadn’t even known? Was it because that I so desperately wanted to love a man that could help me in some way? Why?

On those thoughts I fell asleep.

Matt’s PoV- 

When I woke up in the morning, Kenzie was asleep. She was curled into a ball, almost like a child that was terrified of something in their dreams. I smiled slightly; she was gorgeous. I gently moved the hair out of her face and kissed her cheek.

I got out of bed slowly and quietly, so I didn’t wake her. I walked into my kitchen, grabbed my phone and dialed Brian’s number.

“Yo man,” He sounded groggy, like I just woke him up or something.

“Tell me, how I got so lucky. Please,” I said.

“Why?” He sounded more alert.

“You know the dancer last night, that I helped? Yea, well I think I’m already in love with her,” I gulped. Brian was my best friend, I had to know what he said.

“Can I have a go at her? I need to get laid. Michelle won’t put out anymore,” I chuckled, typical Brian, but did I honestly want him to fuck with the girl of my dreams? I guess her and I weren’t dating, so if she wanted to… I guess she could.

“If she’s okay with it,” I said tightly. Brian didn’t notice.

“Alright, bro. I’m headin’ over,” I hung up. I don’t think he realized that Kenzie was over here.

When Brian finally came over, he looked a lot better than he sounded on the phone. He was clean shaven, dressed in normal jeans with a black shirt on, and his hair spiked every which way. We did our greeting.

"So where's the lovely lady of yours? He asked. I chuckled.

"I'm not sure if she'll be able to walk," We both gave a low chuckle at that, but stopped when we saw Kenzie heading down the stairs.

Her hair was tousled but she looked gorgeous, she had on my shirt from last night, and it gigantic on her small frame, and hung low because she was short. I glanced over at Brian who was checking her over.

"Matt... Can I have a glass of milk please?" She looked like a little kid, while she rubbed her eyes and looked up at me. It was then that she noticed Brian. Her face turned the brightest red I've even seen, and she quietly squeaked.

"Kenzie, this is Brian. Brian, that's Kenzie, I introduced them.

"Hello gorgeous," He gently took her hand and kissed it gently. "I am at your service for whatever it may be." He kept a steady eye contact with her the entire time, I knew what he was thinking when he did that.

"Um, you don't need to be so formal," She smiled, and hugged him tightly. "It's good to meet another band member."

I think Brian was a tad bit shocked when she hugged him, but he nonetheless hugged her back with a small smile on his face.
I think Brian was a tad bit shocked when she hugged him, but he nonetheless hugged her back with a small smile on his face. It was a smile that I had only seen once, and that was when he was in love. He hadn't smiled like that since Michelle. I blinked trying to think of why he would smile like that from just the small amount of contact that they have had.

"Kenzie, can I ask a question?" Brian asked, she was looking around now, grazing her fingers over anything that looked interesting. She looked over at Brian and nodded.

"Who was that guy that night?" I looked over at Kenzie. She had turned away, the muscles in her body were tensed. She looked as if she was trying to decided to turn around or not cry.

"Lance, he was my partner on Mens and Ladies night. He used to be sweet and caring about me, like a protector, but that performance... I," She hadn't turned around that entire time, and it sounded like she was crying. I walked over to her and gently hugged her.

"Kenzie, you're strong, and beautiful, don't let that asshole destroy you," I held her tighter. "Don't cry, because that means you're letting him win."

I heard her take an intake of breath and felt her wipe the tears away. She nodded and looked up at us. "Thanks." It was quiet and if I hadn't been paying attention, I probably wouldn't have heard it.

"Can I ask something of you guys?" She looked slightly nervous. I nodded.

"Can I stay with you guys, just until I can find a new job and find a new place to live?" I looked at her oddly.

"Do you mean to say that you've been living on the streets?"

"I've been living at my work place, and obviously that won't work anymore," She looked down, curling her toes. "Please?"

"Well, if Matt here says no, I'll gladly take you in!" Brian offered, giving her a grin. She giggled softly.

"How about, you meet all the guys, and you can decide which one you'd like to live with?" I offered. She nodded, a small smile gracing her lips. I smiled back. "Now go get into some of my clothes, since you don't have any here, yet. I'll call the guys over."

"Thank you." She raced up the stairs. I looked over at Brian.

"She's too sweet. Too innocent, but that's what brings me closer to her. I want to know more about her," Brian said. I nodded.

"Me too."

Kenzie's PoV- 

I highly doubted that there would be much in here that would fit me, but I found a pair of boxers and a smaller shirt, that I put on. I looked odd, in extremely large clothing, but it would have to do till I could buy some new clothes.

I walked down and heard loud laughter and talking.

"No no, it was more like a cat's hissing. He could NOT play that violin!" I blinked as I stood in the doorway listening. I only saw four guys. I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion.

"Me-ooow!" I heard behind me. I jumped and quickly spun around. This one was easily shorter than the rest, and he had a bleached mohawk standing on his head. He grinned.

"Hey, I'm Johnny." I blushed and ducked my head. I was so shy around some people. He chuckled and walked past me. "Guys, Kitty's down here," I heard a bunch of shifting, then eyes on me. I gulped.

"It's umm, Kenzie, by the way," I corrected him.

"No, to me, you're Kitty," Johnny corrected me again. I frowned slightly, then gave in. I observed each of them, and yet again someone was missing.

"HI! I'm Jimmy! You're-" He didn't get to finish, before I had jumped over the couch and was hiding behind someone. "New best friend..." He finished saying awkwardly.

I heard a bunch of laughter. I looked around, and realized I wasn't behind someone, I was on top of someone, and hiding into their chest. I slowly looked up. This man had the greenest eyes I've ever seen, and snake bites, with black hair. He held a smirk I blushed darkly.

"I-I'm sorry!" I quickly scrambled off of him and into a corner. My eyes watered. I was making the biggest fool out of myself. These guys would never accept me. I was too much of a weirdo to be anything to them.

I looked at the hand then my eyes travelled to the face of the one's lap I jumped on to. He held a smile now.

"I'm Zacky. Your new big brother." I smiled slightly and wiped my eyes as a just in case, then I took his hand and he helped me stand up. He brought me into a tight bear hug. I giggled softly and hugged back.

Maybe I was wrong.

When I was released I went over to Jimmy, who was having a pity party in the corner. I sat next to him, and laid my head on his shoulder.

"Jimmy, Jimbo, Jim-Jim, Jimacian... OH! I know, Jimmina." He looked over at me, a playful glare set on me. I smiled. "So you're my new best friend, huh?" He nodded. I jumped up and offered my hand, he took it, and as I struggled to pull him, everyone laughed at me. I huffed.

"Jimina! Get back up!" I yelled. It was then that he pulled me down into his lap. I squealed.

"It's Jimmy, to you, Kitty."

"Then it's Kenzie, to you, Jimina." I smirked as we glared at each other.

"Jimmy has met his match!" Zacky hollered. Jimmy pouted, and I got up.

"Johnny, Zacky, Jimmy, Brian, Matt, is there anyone else?" I questioned.

"Matt and Jason. The Barry brothers, but we only really hang out with them during tours," Johnny answered. I nodded.

---

I think we hung out for hours till we all passeed out on the couches and floor. Right now, I was the only one awake. I sat next to Johnny, who was passed out on the love sofa. I stared at him, then at Zacky, then Jimmy, then Brian, and finally Matt. These men were all gorgeous, but why was I amongst them? More importantly, what will happen when they go on tour?
