Desire of the Soul

Ana’s POV

I’ve got Brian’s message: We’re waiting for you!
“Am, are you ready?” I asked Amanda and she stood up and looked so nervous.
I grabbed my bag and we went to the lift.
“Why do you look so nervous?” “Because I am.” She looked over at me, “You know.. I’ll see Jimmy for second time.. We talk on the phone yesterday, but…”
“Oh, don’t worry. This will be funny, I promise” When we went to the entrance, I already noticed Brian and Jimmy standing near the reception. I walked towards them and kissed Jimmy’s cheek and Brian’s lips. In the corner of my eye I saw that Amanda shyly kissed Jimmy, and he embraced her tight. Usually Amanda was confident but with Jimmy she looked like little insecure girl. But Jimmy, Jimmy looks so happy when he stood next to her.
“Amanda, this is Brian, my fiancé” I said to her.
“It’s nice to finally meet you. Ana talked about you all the time” She smiled at me.
“I hope only good things” Brian laughed.
“Oh baby, I have no reason to say bad things about you” I said to him.
“So, are we going?” Jimmy asked. “Yes, yes, let’s go” I said and grabbed Brian’s hand.
We arrived at the small restaurant and Brian opened the door for me and I looked around and
my eyes meet his and I froze in place. I stopped breathing. When he saw me as well and realized who I was he looked nearly as shocked as me. Then his glance wandered over to Brian and our intertwined hands and back up to my eyes.
“What’s up?” Brian asked. I couldn’t speak… had no words left, he followed my sight and looked questioningly at me again.
“Anastasia”, Larry (my Ex-Boyfriend) said slowly and took one step closer to me.
My body starts to shake at the sound of his voice. I haven’t noticed before but tears were falling down my cheeks. I stepped back. “Baby, what happened? Do you know that guy?”
Brian put his hand on my back and pulled me closer.
“Fuck! I can’t believe it, you’re Synyster Gates, right?!” Larry said loudly.
Brian nodded with a smile, like always. He loved his fans, that was normal, but why did he smile for this asshole. For my nightmare?! I wanted scream that he had to stop, but I can’t do anything.
“Hey, why are you not going?!” Jimmy said, he and Amanda stood a few steps away from us. “Annie?! Why you are crying?!” He looked at me.
“Brian?! What happened?! Why is she crying?!”
“Damn it Jimmy, I don’t know!”
“Can I take a photo with you guys?” Larry said and looked from Brian to Jimmy.
“Wait a minute” Brian said to him.
He put his hands on my cheeks and looked deeply into my eyes
“Baby, hey, what’s wrong?! Talk to me, Ana, please” I know that I needed to tell him, who that guy was.
“He..” I started and looked at Larry again, he has a smile on his face.
“Anastasia, calm down” Larry said and raised his hand to my face
“Don’t touch me! Don’t dare ever touch me again” I yelled.
“Ana, Who is that guy?!”
“That’s him. That’s Larry.” Brian looked at me then he realized what I was talking about.
Larry took one step closer to us and I panicked, I freed myself from Brian’s hands and ran out.

Brian’s POV

I looked how Ana ran outside. I still didn’t know what actually happened. Jimmy looked at me shocked. When her words sank in, I repeated it Larry. This was Larry. THIS was Larry!
I saw how Amanda went out and held Ana in her arms.
“You” I started and grabbed the guy by his collar and shoved him against the nearest wall.
“I will fucking kill you!” I yelled. He began to struggle but I was way stronger.
“Brian, what are you doing?! Leave him alone!” Jimmy yelled next to me.
I still held this guy an arm’s length away and Larry muttered, “Fuck, that hurts, leave me alone!”
I saw how Ana was kneeling on the street and cried.
“Brian, stop it”, Jimmy tried to push me away.
“Shut up” I yelled. I can’t describe what I was feeling. I promised myself if I would ever meet the guy that had hurt my little Ana that bad I would kick his ass so….
She was so insecure and shy because of him, when I had looked at her and she saw his face how scared she was of him, how much he had hurt her, inside and out. It reminded me of everything she told me. I can’t imagine how she felt when he did that to her. I raised my hand to strike him, the first blow on his perfect face, but I heard Ana scream, “NOO! Stop!”
What?! Why is she defending him?!
“Jimmy, separate them… please!”
A second later Jimmy took my hand back with a tight grip.
“Let me go!” I screamed at him. Ana stood suddenly in front of me putting her hand on my chest “Baby, please, stop it, he’s just not worth it. You can get in trouble if you hit him. I don’t want that.”, she said slowly, and looked deep into my eyes.
“Can somebody tell me what the fuck is going on here?” Jimmy looked at Ana.
I didn’t know if I should tell him or not… so I looked back to Larry and the asshole was trying to slowly step away from the scene. No! No! NO! He won’t get away like that; he has to feel how it was when someone stronger hurt you…! I pushed Ana out of my way and started to go towards him again but Jimmy grabbed my arm to stop me.
“Damn you Jimmy! He raped her! How can I just let him walk away... I must kick his fucking ass!” Jimmy looked shocked at me and Ana started to cry again. Fuck, I shouldn’t have said that but I can’t control my temper now.
“He did what?!” Jimmy yelled.
I tried again to grab the guy but this time Jimmy was faster.
“Ana is right. You can’t do that…” I looked at Jimmy shocked. What the fuck is wrong with him?!
“Fuck of..” I started.
“You can’t, but I can!” Jimmy said and ran forward “Come here, you fucking asshole!” he started to yell. And just one second later I saw how Jimmy was kneeling onto Larry’s body and hits his face again and again…
“Jiiiiiiimy! Stop!” Ana walked to Jimmy’s back and embraced him tight.
“Stop it, Jimmy please.” I stood next to her, put one hand on her arm and with my other arm I pushed Jimmy back.
“Okay, okay. Get the fuck out of here!” he said to Larry.
“Hey!” I called to the bloody Larry, he turned around “You wanted some souvenir after meeting with me and The Rev, don’t you?!” He looked confused. “Jimmy, we always give something to our fans, right?” Jimmy smiled a little. I walked to Larry and kicked him in the nuts one final time. He fell to the street and whimpered.
“Now you can say to your friends that Synyster Gates and The Rev kicked your fucking ass.”
I turned back around and grabbed Ana’s arms to take her away from here.
“Amanda, can you tell that Ana won’t go back to work today?” I asked her.
Amanda nodded at me, “Yeah of course.”
