After All That We've Been Through

Brian's POV

"It's our secret," I said, though internally I felt slightly defeated. This is the same problem we had before and I hated the idea of having to hide everything. This is part of the reason we had a huge fight and crashed and burned before.

Suddenly Kady's lips are pressed to mine and I wrap my arms around her small frame, holding her close. For right now she was mine and mine alone.

"He-hem..." I looked up to see Zacky standing in the doorway with an amused expression on his face. "So this is how you planned to bring her back into the studio?" he chuckled as Kady crawled off me with bright pink cheeks.

"Shut up, Baker," I hissed, suddenly realizing that he didn't think much of what he walked into. "I just gave her what she's been asking for," I retorted in a cocky tone. I just hoped Kady realized that it was all part of the act. "I knew she couldn't wait for a taste of Synyster Gates..." Kady narrowed her eyes at me locked her jaw. Did I cross the line again? "She's a little Monster...their song doesn't lie!

"I just wanted to see if his kiss was what all the roadie girls said it was cracked up to be," Kady said, shooting me daggers before stepping up next to Zacky. "And let me tell you...it was a little disappointing. Now you on the other hand...I've heard some very intriguing things about you Mr. Vengeance," she teased.

I clenched my jaw as I watched Zacky's eyes rake over Kady's body and I instantly knew this secret thing was going to be harder than I thought. And to make matters worse, Kady decided that she wanted to keep going with this charade so she walks her fingers down Zacky's arms as his cigarette hangs out of his mouth. My fists balled as she stood on her tip-toes and whispered something in his ear. I couldn't fucking take it anymore!

"Enough!" I hissed, pulling Kady back to my side as Zack burst out laughing.

"After being on tour with you for two months and sharing a bus with both of you for two weeks, did you honestly think I was going to buy this line of crack you're selling?" He laughed, engulfing himself in a cloud of smoke. "Don't think I haven't noticed your late night conversations or the sneaking around the buses..." He raises a brow at both of us. "I'm not that naive and I'm sure as hell not putting on happy blinders like Sanders and Short Shit."

Kady looked at me with a nervous expression etched in her features. "I honestly don't give a fuck what you two do as long as you don't get us kicked off the tour or involve your douche of a brother," Zacky continued casually. Kady looked at me with a raised brow before taking a hesitant step towards Zacky.
"So you have to understand how important it is to keep this a secret..." Kady said, her eyes locking with Zacky's as she took my hand. "If this gets out to my band, we could be done and god knows what a fucking field day the press would have."

"My lips are sealed, baby," Zacky said, taking another long drag. "I've got you backs...just please promise that it things go south that you don't explode each other's personal lives to the press."

"I already apologized for that," I sighed, pinching the bridge of my nose. "But I'm sure everyone thought it was a joke." Kady turned on me with narrow eyes and poked her finger hard into my chest.

"You Sir still have some major groveling to do about that one," she warned in a deadly tone which caused Zacky to laugh again. Fuck you guys...

"She's gonna have you whipped in no time, Gates!" Zacky laughed.

"I will fucking kill you, Zee, I swear to god!" I said, giving him a firm punch in the arms.

"Are you guys ready to go back on the air?" We all looked over to the door to see the mousy woman giving us the death glare. Damn I wouldn't want to piss her off....

After the second half of the interview with the typical run of the mill questions, we made our way back towards the buses. I couldn't help but let a small smirk fall over my face as I watched Kady and Gunnar walk in front of us. She had a slight swagger in those slim hips of hers and damn that ass...I couldn't wait to whisk her away somewhere private...

"Gates? Gates are you listening?"

I shook my head and refocused only to see Larry shaking his head at me. "Sorry....I'm still feeling hungover." Which in all honesty wasn't a lie. I could really go for some pancakes and a tall cup of black coffee...ah that would be fucking awesome.

"I was saying that your guitar tick has the flu and I'm not sure if he will be able to run the show. Is it okay if I have Jason do it?"

"Yeah, that's fine. I trust Berry with my life, just as long as he doesn't fucking drop my new gun!"

"I'll pass the message along," Larry chuckled just as powdery white bulla hit started to fall from the sky.
"Fuck," I hissed, pulling my leather jacket tightly around my body. I hated the snow...it was cold, and wet, and cold....and did I mention cold? "When do we go back to the warms states?"

"We are on the east coast for the next month so you better prepare yourself," Larry chuckled. He knew my hate filled relationship with the white demon itself.

I sighed as I made my way up the steps of the bus, only to be trampled by Jimmy flying out the door.
"It's snowing!" He sang loudly. I turned to see every eye on him but he didn't seem to care as he spam around with his tongue out like an idiot. "I've been waiting for this all year!" He screamed. It was true, the snow turned the bad ass drummer into a fucking puppy and there was no reeling him back in now. It was then that my stomach erupted with a loud growl.

"Well I take it somebody's hungry," Kady said, suddenly at my side with a cigarette in her hand. I couldn't help but notice how beautiful she looked with little white flecks of snow in her bright red hair.

"That's an understatement," I groaned, still longing for pancakes.

Kady smiled wickedly before looking around to see most of the guys out for a smoke break. "That's it, everyone back on the buses," she yelled. "We're all taking the morning off and we are going to fucking Denny's!" She fucking read my mind!

I knew there was a reason I liked this girl!

Notes

Will they be able to keep their relationship a secret or will everything start to crash and burn around them. Plus Caleb and Marley have been too quiet lately....what's going on there? Where has Ryn been?
