After All That We've Been Through

Kady's POV
Before I even opened my eyes, I could feel the ungodly throbbing in my head. What the fuck happened last night? My whole body ached and my hair felt like a nest on top of my head. I definitely was drunk last night, there was no denying that but my hair usually only felt like this after an amazing shag...

It was then that a loud snore erupted next to me followed by an arm wrapping itself around me. I instantly stiffened, afraid to open my eyes. I didn't remember a damn thing from last night and it was starting to seem like I had gotten myself in trouble.

Here goes nothing...I carefully opened one eye as the light made my head feel like it was going to explode. Ugh this guy was at least half naked from what I could tell. His head was covered with a pillow and all but his muscular tattooed shoulders were under the thick comforter. Wait a minute....I know those tattoos! Marley's signature tattoo was a raven sitting on a scull with thousands of birds flying around it. It was a beautiful piece of work.

I slowly lifted up the pillow to make sure I could trust my eyes. Few...there was that mop of dark curls that I knew so well. I could relax, I was just sharing a bed with Marley. Nothing out of the ordinary, right? I flopped my head back down on my pillow, instantly regretting my actions. My head exploded with pain from the sudden movement and I felt like I was going to be sick.

I got up as quickly as I could and flew to the bathroom. I made it just in time to sit down in front of the toilet and vomit. Damn this was the worst part of a fun night. When I was finished I slowly dragged myself off the floor. Damn I felt like I weighed 800lbs. Tylenol and water would be my sanctuary.

"What the fuck is that!" I almost yelled as I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. I had a huge bruise on my thigh and as my eyes examined my body it only got worse. I didn't understand why I was just in my underwear again and why there was a huge red blemish on my neck. "Is that a fucking hickey?" I squeaked.

But seriously, were would that come from? Did I hook up with Marley?!

My heart was racing and I was going to be sick again. I willed myself not to vomit but to no avail. I couldn't hook up with Marley, he was my best friend. Sure he was super sexy and handsome but there was no way in hell we could date. It would ruin the whole dynamic of the band. Why was I such a fuck up? Maybe my mom was right....

"Hey will you hurry up in their!"

I looked up from having my head in my hands, confused at why there was a female voice calling to me. Did one of the other guys have a hook up too? Well it was more common for them and the thought made me having a hook up made me sick.

The voice continued to pound on the door. Damn it she wasn't going to go away. I quickly popped some pills and threw on some clothes before opening the door.

"Ohh, we have a lot if work to do," said a tall blonde woman standing in front of me. She had on aviator sun glasses, a black wife beater, ripped skinny leg jeans, and black stilettos.

"Not to be rude, but who the hell are you?" I asked, pushing past her to the living room area. The swaying of the bus was not helping my hangover.

"Mason didn't tell you?" The blonde raised a brow at me and tapped her toe. She looked annoyed but really it wasn't my problem. "Well fuck, I'm your new stylist and PR. Mason was supposed to tell you that I was joining your tour."

Great so apparently I looked like a hot mess and they needed to fix me. Perfect, just what every girl wants to hear. I took sip from my bottle of water and then rested my head on my elbow. Please make the world stop spinning and tell me that I didn't hook up with my best friend. Ugh!

"We think that we need to up your sex appeal to bring in more male clientele. The ladies are crazy for the men of your band." She paused with a thoughtful smirk, as if she was undressing them in her head. She was just like every other fan girl from what I could tell. "But with a little bit more...let's say risky attire, we could increase your male demographic and get you more listeners."

"So you're going to make me look like a stripper on stage? Brilliant..." I sighed, not lifting my pounding head off the table.

"I'm not saying that at all, Kadence--" I cringed at my full name. My mother was the only one that called me that is unless I pissed off Caleb.

"It Kady," I interrupted, looking I would rather have people think my name was 'Katie' than Kadence. "And listen, sorry didn't catch your name..."

"It's Ryn," she said, flashing her pearly whites.

"Just whatever, do what's best for the band,"I sighed, not wanting to fight with her about this right now. "So did you see the show last night?" I guess I would try and make light conversation since she didn't appear to be leaving.

She smiled wickedly at me before nodding her head. "Those Avenged boys are damn sexy...I wouldn't mind having a 'tour' of their bus before the end of the trip."

Yes, they were sexy but I couldn't risk pissing off my band mates by being involved with one of them. It was tempting but I didn't think it was worth the risk. And come to think of it, neither was sleeping with Marley. I quickly pushed that thought away because I didn't actually know if that hickey was from him.
"Just be careful," I warned. "They are our biggest rivals and they guys might get touchy if you are fraternizing with the enemy."

"Speak for yourself," Caleb growled as he walked towards the fridge. He gave me a dirty look before smiling and throwing a wink at Ryn. "And what do we owe this honor, gorgeous?"

I rolled me eyes and would have made a gaming sound if I didn't think it would actually make me vomit. "This is, Ryn, our new stylist and PR," I sighed as he kissed her hand. Honest Caleb thought he could have whatever he wanted and it was sick to watch.

"Welcome and let me give you the grand tour." Caleb said with a cheeky smirk.

Ugh, I couldn't watch this. I quickly headed back down the hall and climbed back into bed, hoping not to wake Marley. I didn't want things to be awkward between us.

"Good morning, beautiful," said Marley's groggy voice as I pulled up the covers. Fuck just what I was trying to avoid.

"Did you have fun last night," I asked casually, folding the blanket between my fingers. My heart was racing as he rolled over to look at me with his crystal blue eyes.

He frowned at me. Okay, not what I was expecting at all. "Not really."

Was I that bad in the sack? Fuck this was turning out to be worse than I thought. I swallowed thickly. "Why is that?"

Before he could answer there was a loud bang and we were suddenly thrown our of the bunk. The bus made another quick swerve, crashing Marley and I together. I screamed as we flew forward down the bathroom. What the fuck was happening.

"Kay, it's safe now," Marley said helping me off the floor now that the bus stopped.

"What the fuck just happened?" I asked in a shakes voice, looking at all our stuff thrown about the compartment of the bus. It didn't look good.

"The engine died and the driver lost control of the bus," Gunnar said, coming to check on us from the front of the bus. "Everyone is okay...but I don't know if we are going to make it to Colorado on time."

"Fuck," Caleb said, pacing the hallway in front of us. "What are we going to do. We are fucking stuck here!"

"Well, there is one option," Ryn said with that cheeky smile again. She held up her phone so that we could see the name 'Zacky Vengeance'. "We could hitch a ride with Sevenfold until we can get a new bus. And let me just say, as your new PR, I think that would be a wise decision."

"Fuck no, not after what that monster was trying to do to my baby sister last night. I would rather walk than have her be anywhere near those assholes!" Caleb raged as he moved around picking up his things.
Wait a second, what the hell was he talking about? I didn't remember even seeing any members of Avenged Sevenfold last night. I was so confused. What were they talking about.

"Yeah, those pigs shouldn't be around, Kady," Marley chimed in. Okay now my head was really spinning.

"Come on, don't blame it on the poor guy," Gunnar cut in. "I saw the whole thing. She was all over him and if she wasn't like my little sister too, I wouldn't have been able to resister her either..."

"So now I'm some fucking slut? Is that what all of you think of me as?" I raged. I was fuming now. I didn't know what the hell they were talking about but no one called me a slut and got away with it. "What the fuck happened last night?"

"I walked in and you were in the middle of hooking up with Synyster Fucking Gates," Caleb spat.

My mouth dropped to the floor. Sure Brian was sexy and I liked him, but why would I do that. Was that what my inner self really wanted? They always said that when you're drunk, your true intentions come out. Damn it, now I wished I remembered. So he gave me the hickey. I subconsciously put my hand on my neck.

"I beat the shit out of him before he could get any further," Caleb continued and my mouth dropped to the floor the second time. "He fell so easily and I'm sorry you fell too." My brother gave me a small sad smile. That explained the bruise on my leg.

He beat up Brian? Now those guys are really going to be pissed. We would never be allowed on their bus now. And why the hell was Caleb making decisions for me? I was a grown woman who could do what she wanted and my brother sure as hell wasn't going to stop me.

"Who the hell do you think you are Caleb Joseph Parker? It's my decision who I sleep with, not yours! I can sleep with whom ever I want! You guys do and I'm the one who gets slut shamed for making out? You've got to be kidding me!" I raged. The all took a step back and braced themselves because I was a spitfire when ignited. "Hell I could sleep with Marley and it wouldn't be any of your fucking business. You better pray right now that they aren't going to press charges against you or kick us off this tour, god damn it! We are going to ask to share their bus for the time being and you are going to shut up and be the most curious motherfuckers I've ever seen! Do you understand me?" I screamed, my hands now holding up Caleb's collar. I had him backed against the wall.

"Yes, ma'am," all three boys muttered.

"Good," I said with a smile as I released Caleb. "Now get your shit and Ryn, call Avenged. We are joining their bus."
