Seventeen and Pregnant (Avenged Sevenfold)

Deanna’s P.O.V.
I was in the hospital with my brother at my bed side. Zacky was in jail, his parents were furious and Matt was kind of mad because that was their rhythm guitarist and they were planning on doing some shows and now they were stuck. Then my brother was ticked off because they weren’t in the pool with me, they should have been watching me but they were out getting changed and such, smoking a cigarette. Jimmy though, he felt worse of them all. He had a cigarette and found the ice cream truck and came back seeing me really pissed off at him and scared.
The doctors said that I was fine, Zacky was able to get his friend inside but he was hard when he did it, it wasn’t anything really. I did have a small cut inside but I would be fine. Other then that and my broken wrist, I was fine. I was shaking though and didn’t want to talk to anyone. I was upset with everyone, worried that Zacky would do something like that again.
When my parents came inside, my mother came and held me tight, my father furious at what happened and looked at me brother, smelling his breath, his clothes. My brother was smart enough to change his clothes and to just have one can of beer instead of a few like Zacky had had, and Brian but he was still partly sane.
“My baby,” My mother cried, “Oh God I am so happy your alright,” She said holding me. I held onto my mother for dear life, my dad looking down at me and sighed. He didn’t know what he should do. He couldn’t just have me stop being with my best friends, we have been friends since baby hood.
“Come on Johnny,” He said looking to my brother, “I’ll take you and the guys home,” He said and Johnny came and kissed my temple and left.
“Mommy…Jimmy…he wasn’t there,” I whispered with tears streaming down my face. He said he was going to be there for me no matter what and the next thing I am getting raped and he is standing there with an ice cream cone.
“Oh baby girl, I’m sure there was something going on…” She said lightly.
“How can he do this to me?” I cried, “I screamed for help…why did they all leave me? Why didn’t they help me?” I cried in my mothers embrace. I felt so weird now, there was this feeling that was on me and I didn’t know what it was.
After moments, there was a knock on the door and I looked past my mom and saw that it was Jimmy standing there with a bouquet of flowers in his hand and a small stuffed puppy. My mother kissed my temple, telling me that she would be just outside of the room and I nodded, coming and cuddling to the pillows, pulling the blanket close to me. Jimmy came inside and sat down beside the bed and smiled at me, setting the flowers on the night stand and handed me the puppy.
“I’m so sorry baby for not being there for you,’ He whispered, grabbing my hand. I felt my body stiffen, his eyes looking into mine, “I won’t hurt you baby, I can’t do that to you, ever,” He said gently.
“I know,” I whispered, “W-why weren’t you there?” I said feeling the tears fall, “I needed my hero,”
“I was smoking a cigarette and I went across the street to get us an ice cream but they ran out of your favorite so I was going to share mine and then I saw you looking scared out of her life and Zacky on the other side of the pool…” His voice trialed off and he looked down to my hand and I saw his body beginning to shake, “I’m so sorry baby, my love, I’m so sorry,” He whispered, putting his forehead on my hand. I brought my broken one up and ran my fingers through his hair, coming and cuddling to him not saying anything. I know that he was sorry for what happened, I couldn’t be mad at Jimmy for this. It wasn’t his fault. It just made me wonder why there was no one there for me.
“Don’t leave me baby,” I whispered holding onto him.
“I won’t my love, I’m right here,” He said cupping my cheek and kissed my forehead, “Why did he do this to you baby girl?” He asked me. I looked away from Jimmy not sure what I should tell him. I didn’t want the band to break apart because Zacky was mad and drunk. I didn’t want to talk about it either.
“I don’t want to talk about it,” I whispered, my fingers tracing his hand and he nodded.
“I understand baby girl,” He kissed my hand and came and laid beside me and held me close.
I was discharged a few hours later, being wished a Merry Christmas and sent home. Jimmy had went home, Johnny told me that Katie was already home decorating my room with Christmas spirit so I wouldn’t be so down. Jimmy, Brian, Matt, and Johnny made me a card to get well soon and that they were sorry about what happened. Mr. and Mrs. Baker came over later that night and apologized about their son and his attitude, that they would be sure he wouldn’t be doing that ever again.
The boys dream was put on hold, as well as mine. I guess it wasn’t our time to go and dream big about anything. But for the rest of Christmas, it was amazing. I mean, I had my best friend with me. Katie was being the sister I never had and I just wished she could stay here forever. She was thinking about it, saying she could always have her mom ship her things here to America and my parents already said that she could stay with them when the holiday was over and Johnny did as well.
When Christmas came, the gang came over, Jimmy looking really cute in his Christmas sweater, his glasses and his hair all spiked up and his bright smile as he saw me. I came and hugged him tightly, him telling me that I looked amazing in my red dress. I blushed in return and gave him a sweet kiss.
“You two are to cute,” Katie said sitting on Matt’s lap and my parents agreed.
“You hear that? Where cute baby,” Jimmy smiled and I laughed and smacked his chest, grabbing his hand and sitting on the couch next to my parents. When everyone arrived, well besides Mr. And Mrs. Baker who sent their apologies, we started to open presents. I got really good gifts, but I think the most precious one was from Jimmy.
“This is a promise ring,” He said to me. I looked at the ring in shock, it was so beautiful, it was a silver band saying ‘forever a promise’ He came and slipped it onto my engagement finger and smiled at me as he kissed the top of my hand, letting me see the same on his finger, “I know that you believe in waiting for marriage my love, in my eyes you are still saved. I will wait for you till the day we wed.” He said. I smiled at him and kissed him softly, thanking him for the beautiful ring that was on my finger, “It’s also a promise that one day we will be married,” He told me, “That we are forever together,” He smiled. He sounded so cheesy but that’s what I loved, cheesy romance.
“Here’s yours baby,” I smiled and handed him a big box. He squealed making his parents chuckle. He ripped open the wrapping paper and Brian threw him his pocket knife and he was a little more calmer as he opened the box. He clicked it back inside and set it down gently onto the coffee table and I was so freaking anxious for him to open it I was already bobbing up and down. He did and moved the tissue paper out of the way and his jaw dropped when he saw it. He looked at me, who was biting my lip and looked at him, “Go on,” I said and he looked back at the present speechless.
“What’d you get man?” Brian asked him. He looked to his friend and back at the package.
“I’m worried I’d ruin it,” He said and I chuckled.
“It’s alright baby, you wont,” I told him. He nodded and very carefully grabbed the black leather jacket. It was the first Avenged Sevenfold official merch that these guys had. I had it specially made for my Jimmy with his nickname on the back along with the deathbat and Avenged Sevenfold circled around it. The guys were in total awe of it and Jimmy stood and I put it on him, having it fit perfectly. He smiled brightly, looking on the inside of it, the inside pocket holding a letter that I had written for him. He grabbed it and read it, his face blushing madly and him looking at me with a goofy smile.
“I love you too baby,” He smiled. I giggled and wrapped my arms around him and kissed him. I know that there was adults here but who cares. I rather kiss him with my parents were around then alone any day really.
“There’s some more,” I said. He chuckled and went back to the box getting a cross necklace as well as a pair of black sticks with The Reverend Bartholomew Plague written on them.
“You my dear Deanna must be the best girlfriend on the face of the planet,” He said hugging me tightly and lifting me up. I squealed and hugged him back tightly and he put me on my feet and kissed me once again. I must say that this was the best Christmas that I could ever ask for.
