*Carry On*

****Brian's POV****

I rub my hand over my face as I stand in line at Starbucks, my head painfully throbbing. Why did we always drink a shit ton right before we are about to get on a bus and drive for hours? I will myself not to vomit as I think if all the nasty ass smells on that bus. Yuck...well at least we're not in the damn van anymore.

I pull my beanie down further over my head and adjust my aviator sun glasses. I really hope that no one will recognize me in here...well hell it's early. What metal head is going to be in Starbucks at seven in the morning?

"Welcome to Starbucks, how can I help you?" The barista asks in an overly chipper tone.
Great...hangover smeared with fake ass kissing...that is Johnny's job.

"Two venti coffees...erm both black." Shit well I suck in the boyfriend department. I don't even know how Kaylyn likes her coffee. "Can you put cream and sugar on the side?" I ask, leaning on the counter to see what baked goods they have. "And one of each of your muffins." It's just then that my sunglasses slide down the bridge of my nose.

"Oh my god...your-your Synyster Gates!" The barista gasps and I fight the urge to sigh and roll my eyes.
I put on a fake smile and lean closer, "yes I am and I will sign this cup here for you if you promise to keep it on the DL...I'm running late," I whisper to the girl as she fumbled with the cups, knocking them everywhere.

I sigh under my breath and grab one of the cups rolling across the counter. I quickly scribble my sure name signature on the cup and slide a twenty on the counter. "Keep the change for your tip," I say just as they call up my order. Thank fucking god.

I quickly grab the coffees and pastries and head out the door just as panic starts to erupt behind me. Damn, I love our fans but I'm not quite ready to go on tour and deal with all that again. Part of me is ready to rock and have a good time, while the other just wants to stay home and keep Kaylyn all for myself.

A smile falls over my face as I think of those beautiful eyes and how peaceful she looked when I had left her this morning. I can't quite remember everything that happened last night, but I do know I woke up this morning with the naked beauty in my bed. Damn I wish I remembered it...

"Brian?!" Kaylyn's voice calls as soon as I close the door behind me.

"Yes dear," I call back in a silly voice as she peeks around the corner. I can't help but let my eyes wander down over her body. She's wearing a pair of dark wash jeans, black boots, and a top that begs for me to look at her beautiful cleavage. How was a man supposed to keep his hand to himself on a tour bus when she's dressed like that? "Whoa mama!"

"Were have you been? I thought you left without me!" She says, the look of worry washing off her face.
"Now why would I do that?" I ask with a raised brow as I motion to my pile of luggage by the door. "I went to get you..."

"Coffee!" Kaylyn squeals with a smile before taking one of the cups and giving me a kiss. "How did you know I like it black?" She asks with a raised brow as she eyes me suspiciously.

"I have special mind reading powers," I retort in the silly voice as I pull her into my embrace. I look down at her only to realize her tits are staring me in the face again. No not the nipple saga again! "You need to change," I say, holding her arms length away.

A small pout comes over Kaylyn's face and I instantly hate myself. "Why?"

I pinch the bridge of my nose again and let out a sigh. Isn't it fucking obvious when you look in the mirror that your tits are waving hello? The last thing I want is for all the guys to be drooling over her all day! I would have to beat the shit out of each one of them.

"Because your tits are waving hello to me again," I say, grabbing her around the waist and pushing my newly formed erection into the small of her back. "And I can't sit with blue balls for hours...let alone punch out all my band mates."

Kaylyn spins in my arms and sets down her coffee. "Maybe I can help you with that first issue now..." She teases and I can't help but chuckle at how damn cute and sexy she is.

"As tempting as that offer is," I sigh. "The guys are going to be here any minute to pick us up, so go change you tease," I say, giving her a gentle push before slapping her ass. She looks at me over her shoulder and shakes it at me in the most seductive way possible.

I let out a growl as I take a step towards her only to hear the doorbell sound and Jimmy come barging in.
"On the road again! Just can't wait to get on the road again!" Jimmy sings as Kaylyn scurries out of sight. I laugh at the cute little wink she gave me before she took her suitcase into the bathroom.

"Are we all on board?" I ask Jimmy but he is more interested in my coffee and the bag of muffins on the counter. He takes a big swig of my coffee only to spit it out all over the floor...

For a moment my mind flashes back to last night at Johnny's. We are all taking shots and when Jimmy gets to his last one, he turns and spits it all over Johnny.

"Earth to Brian?" Jimmy sings, shaking my entire body. "Can I PLEASE have the chocolate chip muffin!?"
I shake my head and step out of the gangly mans reach as he takes a huge bit out of the muffin after I give him a nod.

"So you and Rizzy-Riz an item now?" Jimmy asks causally as I pick up my coffee and my one of my suitcases.

I turn and gap at him as he gives me a knowing grin. I bite my inner cheek and lock my jaw as I try to think of a logical response. The correct answer would be yes, but my mouth couldn't form those words. "We're just having fun," I mutter, instantly kicking myself.

"Does she know that?" Jimmy asks with a mouthful of muffin.

No she doesn't know that because we are actually in a relationship and I'm too much of a pussy to say the words.

"Do I know what?" Kaylyn asks from behind me. I sigh and lower my head, praying that she didn't hear what I told Jimmy.

"That you are the best thing that's ever happened to me," I say, turning to face her and pulling her to my side. I plant a kiss on her temple before moving with my stuff out the door.

A half an hour later, the bus is packed and all of our equipment is on the roadie bus. I grab Kaylyn's hand and lead her up the stairs of the bus and I can't help but notice she won't meet my eyes.

"Welcome home, Riz," Zacky says, looking up from his cellphone. "Hope you're ready for this wild ride," he says with a wink. I fight the urge to tell him off and drag Kaylyn along with me.

"So this is the living and gourmet dining area," I joke, showing her the main area of the bus with the folding table/bed.

"Stocked with every fucking snack and alcohol know to man," Johnny pipes in as the bus starts to move.

"Easy," I say to Kaylyn, as I catch her after she stumbles backward into me. I hold her for a moment longer than necessary before I place her back on her feet.

"And this is the baby making area!" Jimmy yells while grabbing Kaylyn's hand and pulling her down the hallway to the bunks. I can't help but watch Kaylyn's eyes wander to the sleeping Sanders for a moment before looking away. What the hell was that?

"And this is your bunk," I say opening the door to the master bedroom. "We thought you should have the best bunk on the bus," I say with small smile.

And also because it's the furthest away from all the other guys....

Notes

Will there be more drama on the bus or will they all cool their jets?

Did Kaylyn hear what Brian said to Jimmy?

What will she think of their first show and will she meet Syn for the first time?
