You know i make you wanna scream..

I walked away from Eleanor with Arin, and went over to where Johnny, Matt, Brian, Michelle and Dan were sitting around couches.
'You okay man?' Johnny sighed, 'that looked pretty rough.'
I nodded, 'I'm good, thanks. I just hate the way he hit Eleanor again. I couldn't watch him do that.'
Brian overheard, and Brian being Brian, sighed deeply. 'That's kinda why we called you over here. What the fuck is going on man? You got this chick pulled out of the pit yesterday because her boyfriend was smacking her up, then yesterday you're making out with her in the bathroom, then you're taking her back to your hotel room, then you're fighting off her ex, now you're sitting with her on your lap in the hotel lounge comforting her? Where is the old, one night stand Zacky gone?'

I chuckled at Brian's overreaction. 'I don't know, there's something about her I really do like. Something that makes me want more than just a one night stand. She's more relationship material, really.'
Matt intervened, 'but how do you know she's not just using you for the fame?'
I looked back to where Eleanor was sitting, talking and laughing with Val and Kimberly, as if nothing had even happened. She glanced at me, and smiled shyly, staring right at me. I grinned back, before looking back to the guys. 'You can tell when someone's a gold digger. Eleanor is not a gold digger.'
Johnny and Brian snorted, but didn't say anything
Matt glared at Johnny and Brian, before smiling, 'Well, once you're happy, we're all happy for you. And Eleanor's really nice, so just be careful.'

'Thanks, Matt.' as I walked away, Michelle came up behind me and tapped me on the shoulder. I turned around. 'Don't listen to any of them.' she smiled kindly, 'they're just worried she's only after you for the fame, but I know she's not. Just from talking to her side stage last night, I can tell she's not like that, Zacky.'
I smiled at Michelle, 'Thank you Michelle.' She sighed, 'but you have fallen for her hard and quick.'
I frowned, 'have you seen her lately? How could you not fall hard and quick?'
