Banned in a book

Matt’s POV

“Soo, how was your night, Shadz?” Zacky grinned at me from the couch, when I set some beers in front of us.
“Good, but ended lonely.” I told him honestly.
“Really? How come, weren’t you out for the hunt that night?” Zack took the bottle and looked at me curious.
“I was… I just.. lost interest I guess…” I shrugged, didn’t really care about that anyway.

Since a couple of days I had a weird feeling, I didn’t really know why… Something was bugging me but I couldn’t point at what it was.
“Lost interest, huh?” Zack grinned. “Maybe we should all go out again together, let’s call Jimmy and Johnny…”
“I don’t know… I’m feeling not like party lately, weird, right?”
“You are getting old, don’t worry… that happens to the best of us.” Zack smirked and I punched his arm.
“Shut up, Vengeance.”

“Maybe you need to let some thoughts out of your head, did you try to write some new songs, some lyrics?” Zacky asked and raised his bottle again and now the feeling of a missing part was intensifying, but why?
“No, I.. I don’t know… Did you? I didn’t find the drive… didn’t find the energy to write lately? Do you think I got a writer’s block or some shit?” I asked him honestly and Zack looked a little uncomfortable.
“Damn, you scare me… Jimmy asked me the same just yesterday. I couldn’t even pinpoint what it was but whenever I sit down and take my guitar, nothing… I mean like really, nothing happens, or I start playing something and then I just stop, like I was waiting for something…” Zack looked up and I knew he was honest with me, what was wrong with us lately?

I knew there was a time, that we were different, that you just had to set us in a room, studio preferably and we wrote song after song, ideas after ideas were coming out of us…
And now?
Nothing…

“So?” I asked Zacky with raised brows. I knew we must be thinking the same, but neither one of us wanted to say it.
“So?” Zacky replied looking at me curiously.
“How are we going to solve this?” I asked him.
He shrugged “Let me call the others… Let’s sit together, that used to work, maybe we make a trip together, just something, we will get new ideas… I know it… maybe we are a little rusty after the last tour, don’t you think?”
“Yeah, maybe you are right.” I nodded, “Go ahead, call them.. let’s plan something for the end of the week.” I agreed and knew were just postponing what we really thought.
Something was missing, we all knew that, and if the other didn’t want to admit, fine… But I knew something was wrong…
But damn it to hell, I had to find out what!

Sam’s POV
The grocery shopping together with Brian went fast and easy, he still wasn’t the most talk-active guy, but that was fine with me.
So another night was coming ahead of us and I had to talk to him about my new idea.
He didn’t act like a complete weirdo, beside the point that I only knew him for what 3 days? And that he came out of a book, but that wasn’t his fault, was it?

“Brian?” I asked through the closed bathroom door. He had been in there for quite a while and the shower was still running.
My water consume would get drastically high within this month, that was for sure.
“Almost done.” I heard him yell back and went back to my bed.
I picked his pillow and blanket up and placed it next to mine on the bed, I would make a deal with him.
He could sleep in my bed under certain circumstances, he had to keep his hands to himself, would use his own blanket and pillow and wouldn’t try any dirty tricks, that was it and he could sleep in my bed.
I couldn’t, I really couldn’t let him sleep on the floor again.
That wasn’t manageable with my conscience… and tomorrow, we both had to get up early and I had to take him with me to work.
Good thing was, my boss wasn’t there the whole week, bad thing was Ethan was.
And I had some deadlines I had to fulfill, and taking this day off was already pushing the boundaries pretty bad.

“Damn, you really begin to appreciate a shower, when you haven’t had one in a while.” Brian wore only his sweatpants, which we bought and was towel drying his hair.
Water droplets still running down from his shoulder to his chest, and I imagined, what it would feel like following them with my mouth and-
Good god, Sam! Get a grip… maybe it would be better if he would keep sleeping on the floor, or I would be the one trying the dirty tricks…
I shook my head at the thought and realized Brian was still staring at me with a smirk.
“I..Hm.. I wanted to tell you that you don’t have to sleep on the floor any longer. I can’t let you sleep there. But since we are bound with a magical… leash, I thought we could act like two adults and sleep in my bed. I mean it’s big enough and we just need to set up some ground rules. No dirty tricks, everybody stays on their side and keeps their hands to themselves, and we should be fine, right?”
I rushed out and waited for Brian’s reply.
“Sounds like an adult plan” He nodded and I smiled, good so that was settled, now I just needed to direct my eyes somewhere else then his naked upper body and we would be fine.

“So, tomorrow, what is the plan, Sam?” Brian settled in my bed, making himself comfortable.
And why the hell did it look way more comfortable with him in it, then without?
“Tomorrow, we gotta get up around 6, getting ready, quick breakfast, I start work at 7.30. I do have some important deadlines to keep, so that’s necessary. My boss won’t be there, so we just gotta convince my colleague Ethan, why you are there and who you are, but he is a nice guy and a friend, so that shouldn’t be too hard.” I laid myself down and then thought if I should open the window a little, because lying next to Brian and his bedroom eyes staring at me, then licking his lips as if he was about to make me his next dinner, wasn’t cooling down the temperature in this room.
“I’ll open the window for a bit, are you okay with that?” I quickly got out of the bed again and didn’t even wait for his reply.
“It’s your home, you can do whatever you want.” He smiled and laid back down on the bed.
“Okay, so we go with the boyfriend story, right?” He asked suddenly and when I finally lay back in my bed, but at that question I had to open my eyes again.
“Yeah, I thought that was clear.” I shrugged, he wanted to go with that, so… I had to admit that would explain at least most of the problems.
“Okay, how did we meet? Since when do we know each other? What’s your second name? When is your birthday? What’s your favorite food? How do you drink your coffee?” Brian asked and I braced myself up on my elbows frowning at him.
“Why would need to know all that?” He just replied my frown with a smile.
“If I should play my part right, I should know things like that, just give me a quick run down, so if someone asks something, I at least have a chance.” Brian looked at me with a nod and I thought about his questions.

“Okay, we met at a party, from my friend July, she moved away about a year ago and I’m the only to keep contact with her… we known us since college. Maybe we met there when I visited her at her housewarming party. What else, so that explains we known us since a year? Long distance relationship, met a couple of times, now seeing if it works?” I looked at Brian and he seemed to think about that.
“Housewarming, year ago, July. Got it, go on.” He waved with his hand at me and I nodded.
“Okay, so… I don’t have a second name. Samantha James, that’s it. My birthday well was 3 days ago… and I love Lasagna, I usually don’t drink coffee, more latte macchiato or if coffee with lots of milk and sugar, so you don’t taste the coffee anymore.” I grinned and Brian chuckled.
“Okay, I think I can remember some of it.”
“How about you, what do I need to know?” I asked and Brian looked at the ceiling then back at me.
“Brian Elwin, I.. my birthday is in July… I think… I love pancakes apparently, and drink my coffee black.” He frowned even more and stopped a smile coming over his face…
“That’s a start right? I do know something about me… That’s more than before.” He looked all excited and hugged me towards him, I felt the delicious heat from his naked upper body and hugged him back.
How could I not, that was the most emotion’s I got out of him, since we were spending our time together.
“That’s good, do you know anything else?” I asked and Brian frowned, he opened his mouth, but nothing came out.
“No, that’s it.. I don’t.. it’s like a thick wall built around my memory, I can’t seem to…” He looked frustrated and I stroked his cheek.
“Let’s sleep, maybe tomorrow, we can figure something more out… It’s a start… a second name and a month, that’s good.” I reassured him and Brian smiled.
“Yeah.. I guess… thanks.” He kissed my cheek and lay back on the bed, my heart fluttered a little and I swallowed, don’t you dare heart… He is just a guest for a month, don’t you dare come to strange ideas!
