Strumming my Heart
Ooopsies
~Amii POV~
I wandered down the dim hallway. I heard yelling in the room that Brian and Matt were in, Uh-oh... That probably didn't mean anything good. Brian came out of the room minutes later, clutching his stomach and mumbleing under his breath. I shrank out of sight, not wanting him to see me. I wasn't ready to face him yet. The room I came across next had the door locked and someone was punching the wall's and crying. I knew it had to be Zacky. Knocking slightly on the door, I prepared for the worst.
"What? Who is it? I- I'm busy. Go away. He yelled, his voice thick and full of pain. Tears welled up in my eyes and guilt filled my heart. His pain was my fault, and for that, I was a despicable human being.
"Zacky, it's me. Please open the door and stop breaking stuff. I'm really sorry. I didn't mea-"
As I was speaking, the door flew open, revealing a fuming Zacky with a red tear-stained face. "You're sorry? You didn't mean to? Bull! You don't just trip and fall into my best friends lips! Why can't you understand that love cannot just be patched up with a mediocre apology and excuses? I really love you, well I did until tonight. Now I'm not sure I can trust you. And if you think I'm overreacting, go look on the floor outside of the guest room, and tell me what you find. Then put yourself in my shoes. I don't want to talk to you right now. Maybe in the morning when I'm wasted and nursing a hangover. But not now." He huffed, slamming the door in my face.
I stood there, stunned. The tears came rolling, and I sat down against the wall, sobbing and wondering why I had to ruin everything. After what felt like an eternity, I stood up and went to look for whatever it was that he told me to find. When I reached the room, I found it devoid of people. Poking around near the doorway, I pondered what the mystery object might be.
I gasped when I found it. A small box that fit in the palm of my hand. The velvet outside was as dark as onyx. I opened it. Sitting delicatley inside the box, was a ring. It ahd a slender silver band and a large diamond. Upon closer examination, I saw that, inside the diamond, a Death Bat was ectched into it. I began to cry again as I read the inscription on the inner part of the band. 'Forever and Always'. So much for that; I ruined everything. If I hadn't kissed that cursed Brian Haner, I would be Mrs. Amii Baker.
I dashed back to the room that Zacky had been in. I could tell from the occasional sniff that he was still in there, but the door was no longer locked, so clutching the box, I pushed my way in.
~Zacky POV~
I sat alone in that room, angry and confused, until Amii shoved open the door, tears streaming down her face, her hand closed tightly around something. I managed a condesending smirk, full of bitterness and sarcasm. "Found it, huh, Am? Well guess what? I've decided that I love you but can't trust you, and you obviously don't love me, at least not enough to be faithful. So, with that in mind, I would like to ask you to kindly give me my ring back." I said.
She shook her head no, tightening her grip on the box. "Zacky, hear me out. I was drunk, Bri cornered me, and convinced me that it was fine, that you gave him permission to kiss me. I know I shouldn't have believed me, but you've been drunk before. You know how blurry your mind can get and how it's hard to differenciate between real and fake. Zacky, you can ask Brian. I'm so, so sorry." She begged.
"Wait, wait, what! Brian told you that I said it was okay?! I'm gonna KILL him! I'm still mad at you, don't get me wrong, but since it seems to be Haner's doing, I forgive you." I stood up and made the two small strides that it took to get across the room to Amii. Taking the ring from her, I knelt down on one knee, looking up at her while tears shone in her eyes, but for a different reason.
"Amii Kathleen Sanders, will you marry me?" I asked. She nodded her head, throwing herself into my arms. I laughed, hugging her and kissing the top of her head lightly. She held out her finger and I slipped the ring on. It fit perfectly. I picked her up and carried her out of the room while she clung to my neck. "I'm not going to drop you, ya know... There is no need to try and choke me." I teased, loosening her grip around my neck.
"Oops, sorry Zacky!" She apologized, laughing. I set her down in the living room, where all of the guys were sitting, all except Brian. Amii sat down on the couch, looking at me with an expression that said 'Please don't kill anyone'. I was not going to abide by that. I was going to (metaphorically) murder Syn for telling my future wife it was OK to kiss him.
