Ben’s POV

Where the hell had that little blonde gone? And why was I looking for her again? That wasn’t my fucking job! She could fend for herself as far as I was concerned. I should have been with my girl, making sure that fucking Sanders wasn’t trying to weasel his way back into her life. That would happen over my dead body! She was my fucking girlfriend and he lost his shot with her. I swear if he fucking made a move toward her I would kill him. I wasn’t going to give her up without a fight, even if it meant making some enemies. It wouldn’t be my first and certainly not my last. Maya belonged with me and that was final!

What were they doing here anyway? Who the hell would have invited them? I was sure James and I had made it pretty damn clear that no Avenged guys were allowed at this party. But here they were anyway.

“Hey Bruce, you enjoying the party?” Danny slurred, throwing his arm around my shoulder. I winced when his breath hit me. Damn he smelled like pure alcohol and I knew he was wasted. Nothing knew there. “Great fucking turn out, no?”

“Yeah yeah, have you seen Maya or Blondie?” I asked, scanning the room. With each passing second I was getting more and more pissed off because I just kept picturing Matt and Maya together. Over my dead body would that happen again. I had invested too much of myself into her to let her go that easily.

Worsnop smiled and leaned into me like he was going to tell me a secret, only he ended up screaming in my ear. “Blondie ran off with Gates…and you said they wouldn’t come! Haha…I told you they would show!”

My eyes grew wide with anger as I gapped at him. “You invited them?” I hissed in a deadly tone, my eyes now narrow.

“Of course I fucking invited them! You said you wanted a good fucking party and those guys know how to live it up!” He laughed and I pushed him away, not willing to deal with him right now.

“Fuck you, Worsnop!” I raged before I stormed away. I couldn’t take it anymore. I had to find Maya and I had to show her that I was the better choice for her. Fucking Worsnop…

“Oh come on, Bruce! Live a little bit,” Danny called after me, still laughing.

After ten more minutes of searching the party I headed towards the kitchen. Maybe I had passed her on the way to get some food? And thank fucking god when I rounded the corner she was coming right towards me. “There you are, Love,” I breathed, pulling her into my arms. I noticed right away that something was off with her because she kept looking around with a nervous expression. “M?”

“Come with me,” Maya said and grabbed my hand, ushering me into the empty kitchen. Her dark eyes shifted around the room, looking everywhere but at me. What the hell happened? Why did she look so freaked out?

“Where were you? I was searching for you,” I said. I gently reached down and took her face into my hands, meeting her eyes. Only it wasn’t what I saw in her eyes that instantly pissed me off, it was her swollen lips and smudged lipstick. What the fuck was that about. “Where is he?” I growled letting go of her and turning around.

“No, Ben please,” Maya insisted grabbing my arm. “Stay here with me…”

“He fucking kissed you and you want me to just let him get away with it?” I raged, throwing my hands up in the air. Oh, I was starting to see red now and if it wasn’t for Maya wrapping her arms around my waist, I would have stormed right into the other room. “And you let him fucking kiss you!”

“No, I didn’t!” Maya shot back, pulling me around again as I headed toward the door. I wanted to give that bastard a piece of my mind. No one touched my girl and got away with it! “He cornered me on the patio and we talked for a few minutes. He kissed me and I pushed him away…I-I didn’t want it,” she said but something in her voice told me that she wasn’t sure of that herself.

“But he still fucking kissed you!” I hissed, running my hands through my hair and making it stand up on end. I couldn’t believe this. Maya was slipping away through my fingers and I couldn’t let that happen. I had to remind her of what we had.

“Ben, please calm down,” Maya’s took my face into her hands, forcing me to meet her eyes. “I’m with you. Whatever I had with Matt has been over for months. I am here with you,” she tried to assure me but just as she opened her mouth to say something else another voice sounded in the room.

“Maya? Can you please just hear me out?—“ Shadow’s voice sounded as he came into the kitchen. When his eyes met mine his fists instantly clenched and I stood up to my full height moving away from Maya.

“You!” I growled, moving towards Shadows. “Who the hell do you think you are?”

“What the fuck are you talking about, Bruce?” Shadows said, looking at me with a confused face. “This isn’t any of your fucking business. Just back the fuck off!” He stepped toward me, looking down at me with a frown.

“Where do you get off thinking you can fucking kiss my girlfriend?” I raged, giving his shoulders a shove.
Shadows just took a step backwards with a scoff, shaking his head. “What the fuck do you mean your girlfriend? You’re delusional, Bruce, she belongs with me and we all fucking know it. So why don’t you just back down now,” he growled, shoving me backwards now. Oh, those were fighting words right there. “She knows that you’re not even half the man I am.” And that’s when I lost it.

“Guys stop this!” I heard Maya yell, but it was too late, I had already thrown a punch at Matt. He stumbled backwards and came barreling back towards me, knocking me to the ground with a hard thud. “Oh my god! Knock it off! Now both of you!”

“You fucking douchebag! Don’t you ever fucking touch my girl!” I screamed. I was kicking and punching ever piece of Matt that I could reach and somehow I managed to get on top in the scuttle.

“She doesn’t belong to you!” I s felt a few hard blows to the face before I found myself standing on my feet again. “Let go of me!” I growled, struggling against James and Cam. I wanted to rip Matt’s head off. No one talked to me like that and got away with it.

“Calm down, Bruce!” Cam raged, pushing me back into the wall as Maya yelled. “Enough! Break it up you two!”

Matt’s POV

I couldn’t believe the nerve of this asshat! Who the hell did he think was messing with? Maya was still my girl and that kiss in the garden fucking proved it. I dare her to tell me she didn’t feel anything after that because we both knew it was a bold faced lie. She still fucking loved me and we both knew it.

“She doesn’t fucking love you!” I raged, throwing punch after punch at Bruce.

As soon as I saw him with her in the kitchen something snapped within me. I lost all control and all I could see was red. All I could concentrate on was making this bastard pay for touching my girl and causing a riff between us. This was all his fucking fault!

“Enough! Get off him, Matt!” I heard someone yell behind me before I was dragged off of Bruce.

“Your gonna fucking see!” I raged. I was panting as I struggled against Jimmy and Zack, trying to get another shot at Bruce. I wanted to teach him a lesson and show Maya who the real man here was. “You’re just a temporary fling!”

“In your dreams, Shadows! She’s with a real fucking man now!” Ben shot back and I took another lunge toward him, only to be stopped by my friends.

“Enough of this! Stop it!” Maya said, looking close to tears. She put her arms up between Bruce and I, looking more than pissed. “And you both know better!” Maya turned on Ben as he wiped a drop of blood from his lip. He glared at me as his band mates let go of his arms. “I’m not some fucking prize! Enough of this bullshit because I am fucking sick of it! I’m with Ben and you need to respect that!”

“You cant tell me that you didn’t feel anything with that kiss!” I shot back, finally freeing myself from Jimmy and Zack. “Maya please just—“

“No!” Maya held her hand up to me shaking her head. She took in a shaky breath and I suddenly felt guilty. This was her special night and I fucking ruined it. Shit, now I really was the world biggest dick. “I think you need to leave…all of you.”

“Maya—“ I started, taking a step toward her shaking my head. She didn’t mean that. I couldn’t let her go not like this. We still had some much to talk about. I had to remind her of what we had together. And I was bound and determined to get her back.

“I mean it, Matt. All of you guys need to go,” she said sadly, and I hung my head. Shit, this wasn’t at all how this night was supposed to go. “You’ve done enough…”

“Maya please…”

“No…just go Matt. Please,” she begged and I could see the tears forming in her eyes. Fuck, I was an ass. “Go…or-or I’ll have to call the police…” I stared at her, shaking my head and knowing that she didn’t really mean any of this. She didn’t really want to stay with Bruce did she? I didn’t believe that.

I gapped at Maya while Zack and Johnny started to pull me toward the door. No, no, no no…she was slipping through my hands and I felt like I was sinking. I couldn’t let her go again but I knew that after everything that just happened she wasn’t going to listen tonight. I wasn’t going to give up and I was going to make her see what we had. I wasn’t going to let her go that easily – I loved her too damn much.

Just as I was pulled out of the kitchen, I heard Jimmy address Maya. “You’re really going to send us out too?” he sounded so sad and I understood how he felt.

“I’m sorry, Jimmy but I-I can’t have you guys here right now,” Maya said, looking over her shoulder at Ben who was still glaring in my direction. “Someone is going to get hurt…but I’ll make it up to you I promise.”

“Then come to our show on Friday,” he begged, his loud voice carrying down the hallway as I was dragged out the door. “Come watch us play and then have a drink with Jess and I…you owe me, remember?”

“I don’t know…” her voice was getting softer and softer but I had to know what she said. I slowed down my pace, trying to get one more view of her over my shoulder.

“Please…M!” Jimmy begged and I could just picture him on his knees. “Just think about! I miss you and you are my knife girl…”

And the last thing I heard before Zack pulled me out the door was Maya saying, “Fine…I’ll think about it.” Those words gave me hope because I knew that if I could just talk to her I could make her see that we still loved each other. I wasn’t giving up on her because I refused to believe that we were over.

Avery’s POV

I was really getting pissed at all the excuses Brian was making, not to mention the lies. Did he really think I was that stupid or blind? I saw what he did! Hell, the whole world did and he didn’t even have the balls to tell me that he fucked up himself. Would that have changed anything? I didn’t know but I was about done with the conversation. I just wanted to go back to James, drink the night away, and pretend that Brian Haner Jr. didn’t exist!

I rolled my eyes and whipped away my tears as Brian told me his whole ‘plan’ to come get me. Yeah, because once he wasn’t on tour anymore he wouldn’t have women crawling all over him. Well I wasn’t going to fall for that again. Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice, fuck you!

“I don’t believe you! You would have never kissed someone else when you still loved me! This is all bullshit!” I raged, throwing my arms up in the air in frustration. I didn’t care how many times he said he loved me because it wasn’t going to fix the hurt he put me through. I didn’t believe him anymore.

“And how did you know about James?” I asked, crossing my arms in front of my chest. In a second Brian’s face turned bright red and his jaw locked, that vein in his neck pulsating. What did I touch a nerve by reminding him that I wasn’t the only one who could move on? Well good, he deserved to feel the same pain he put me through for six months!

“Believe it or not, it’s the truth!” Brian growled through clenched teeth. “We heard about your distractions… and how was it?! Did it feel good, having someone to replace me? Was he worth it?!”

Brian’s words felt like a slap in the face and I had reached my boiling point. How dare he talk about being replaced when he started this whole mess! If he hadn’t messed around and hooked up with other girls we would still be together! So you know what, this was all his fault and could go to hell! I was done. We were done.

“Fuck you, Brian!”With that I quickly turned toward the door, wanting to get as far away from Brian as humanly possible. He disgusted me right now.

Suddenly, his hand grabbed me by the shoulders and forced me to turn around and face him. I raise my arm to slap him away but he was faster. Brian caged me against the house, his hands taking mine and firmly holding them above my head. Damn him!

My eyes met Brian's and my heart started to race. I hated that the person I loathed the most right now had this effect on me. Damn it body, stop it with these fucking feelings! I don't want to feel anything in relation to this man. It was a shame that the only thing that could help me forget about him was on the other side of the door.

Before I could say anything or push him away, Brian’s lips forcibly crashing into mine in a heated kiss. I gasped as a shock wave spread over my body. Damn I forgot what effect he had on me. My gasp gave his tongue access and I had to admit I was craving his sweet taste. He tasted just like I remembered, like a mix of spearmint, smoke, and beer and that wasn’t even counting his intoxicating cologne that was pulling me towards him. I knew that I shouldn’t but it all felt so good and I literally couldn’t stop.

Brian released my hands and they instantly moved around his neck, pulling him closer to me. My fingers tangled in his hair as he forcibly pushed me against the wall, deepening the kiss. He was demanding with every moment making shivers of need run through my body. He was the only one who had ever made me feel like every nerve ending was about to explode.

“Mmm…come to the hotel with me…” Brian muttered against my lips. His voice brought me back to my senses and pushed him away from me. I was mad at him, remember? Damn it! I hated him sometimes!

“Don’t you know what ‘fuck you’ means?” I hissed, my anger coming back. I didn’t know if I was more pissed at him or myself right now. How dare he kiss me after all the shit he put me through! “We cant fucking do this Brian,” I said but my voice wavered. Hell, I didn’t know if I believed it myself because that kiss was cracking my resolve.

"What the hell is your problem?" Brian demanded, staring back into my eyes. Was that regret and pain in his eyes? Well good, I’m glad he was starting to understand this now! “Tell me you didn’t fucking feel that?”

I scoffed and swallowed thickly as I tried to move away from him. Brian just put his arms up and took a step forward, pinning me to the wall again. I could feel my body responding to our close proximity, each passing second with his body touching mine turned me on. I needed to get out of there before I did something I regretted.

"You're my fucking problem," I growled, my eyes filling with the lust I was desperately trying to avoid. I gave his hard chest a firm shove but still he refused to move. Why did he have to get hotter over the past few months? Did he start working out? God, stop it Avery!

"What the hell does that mean?" His dark brown eyes bore down into mine with a look that I had never seen before and it made my breath catch in my chest. “What the hell does that mean?” he raged when I didn’t answer right away, making my temper rise to a new high.

"This was your fucking choice, Brian!" I screamed, pushing on his chest, but he still refused to budge. He was stubborn. I would give him that. "You decided to mess around and in doing that proving that I didn't mean anything to you! So what the hell do you want from me? You made your choice, so go back to your hotel and LEAVE. ME. THE. FUCK. ALONE!" I yelled, the tears now streaming down my face. I quickly shoved him backwards and to my surprise he actually moved. I started down the sidewalk towards my apartment, not in the mood to party anymore. I just wanted to get out of here and forget about everything.

"I fucked up okay?! Is that what you want to hear? I'm the dick who ruined everything!" He shot back, racing after me with his his hands moving in front of him as he spoke.

"You're damn right you ruined everything," I roared. "So much so that you've lost your chance! I've seen your true colors!" I spun around to look at him and I was surprised to see him standing inches from me. I wasn't falling for this shit again. I couldn’t. It hurt too damn much!

"You haven't seen anything!" He growled before pulling me back into him, pinning his lips to mine. I was so taken aback that it took me a moment to respond this time. And as much as I wanted to push him away, I couldn't. My body wouldn’t let me because I had literally melted into him and I wasn’t strong enough to pull away.

Our lips angrily moved together as Brian firmly pressed my body to his. I could feel his hard member stabbing me in the stomach and I knew I was done for. There was no turning back now. I moaned into our kiss as our tongues feverishly danced, making me to drip down below.

“Come to the hotel with me…” Brian breathed against my lip, and I couldn’t do anything but nod.

Without another word, he scooped me up into his arms, in another demanding kiss and headed towards the cab parked down the street. He slid us both inside, not caring that I had lost my shoes along the way. All I could do was kiss every inch of his amazing body and let him devour me. And as much as I hated to admit it, I missed him. I missed this…everything. He made me feel amazing and I hadn’t felt like this in ages. I couldn’t deny myself this anymore.

“He-hem…Where to?” The cab driver said in an irritated tone, causing Brian to pull away from my lips for just a minute. You better make this fast body and turn your head the other way because there I no way I am waiting another second to do naughty things to this handsome man next to me.

Brian told the man the address before his lips moved to my neck. He pulled my small frame onto his lap and I instantly straddled him, my core pressing into the raging mass in his pants. As Brian kissed my neck, I threw my head back, my hair cascading down my back as I moved my hands through his hair. I couldn’t think about anything but feeling every inch of him. I was still angry, pissed actually, but I couldn’t stop myself. I loved him and I hated myself for it.

“What are you doing to me?” I growled before smashing my lips into his in a hungry and desperate kiss. My tanned hands pushed Brian back against the seat while our tongues fought for dominance. I couldn’t get enough of him. Brian was my drug of choice and I pulled him closer, feeling my core grind against his dick.

“Fuck, if we don’t get to the hotel soon, I’m going to fuck you right here in the cab,” Brian rasped in my ear, pulling my hair as his lips moved down my neck to my cleavage.

I was thankful when the cab pulled up to the hotel moments later. In one swift motion, Brian threw the driver two Benjamin’s and scooped me into his arms. Our lips didn’t part as we feverishly made out all the way to the elevator. I didn’t even care that people were snapping pictures and giving us dirty looks. In that moment, I didn’t care. I just wanted Brian.

“What floor?” I rasped against his lips as he maneuvered us into the tinny metal deathtrap. I couldn’t think straight because of all the pheromones flooding my brain. Everything inside of me was screaming to stop but I couldn’t. I needed this. I needed a release!

The next thing I knew, Brian had pressed my back to the elevator wall and I wrapped my legs around his waist. I could feel his bulge pressing into my core and I moaned his name. “Brian…hurry…”

“Three….345,” his voice sounded like music to my ears. His hot breath in my ear made any lingering resolve disappear. Within minutes Brian was carrying me down the hall to his room, his lips not leaving mine.

In one swift motion he opened the door and entered the dark room, our hands groping each other's body and not missing a beat with the movement. I moved my hips against him as we crashed into every wall possible.

"I want you so fucking bad, Ave," Brian breathed into my ear, his lips and teeth teasing my ear lobes.

Without placing me down on my feet, Brian unzipped my dress and slowly pushed it down off my shoulders. The cool air in the room tickled my skin but Brian’s hands quickly made up for it as they messaged down my exposed skin. His touch sent small spark throughout my body and I couldn’t help but moan into the kiss. God he tasted so damn good that I could barely fucking stand it. Someone remind me again why I was angry with him?

Brian sat us done on the edge of the bed and I straddled his lap, feverishly rocking my hips against the throbbing mass still trapped in his jeans. He let out a frustrated growl as he pulled me into him, kissing my neck as he started to remove my bra. I bit down on my bottom lip as he unclasped it and tossed it across the room.

Suddenly his lips had taken my hardened nipples captive and he sucked them harshly, making me moan his name. I tossed my head back in sheer ecstasy because it had been to damn long since I had touched Brian, let alone kissed him. I tugged his shirt over his head and ran my fingers along the ripples in his abs before snaking them just below the waistline of his pants. Damn he’d gotten ripped over the past few months. I just couldn’t keep my hands off him.

"Please don't fucking tease me" he begged, his voice harsh and growling. I unbuckled his pants and slid them down his legs, taking his jeans and boxers with me. My mouth literally watered at the sight of his rather large erection.

The next thing I knew, Brian picked me up and tossed me on the bed, sticking his dick in my mouth. I moaned as I pushed him backwards and took the head of his cock into my mouth while softly stroking the shaft with my right hand.

"Holy fuck!" he moaned loudly and I quickened my pace, causing him to dig his fingers into the bed sheets beside him.

I hummed in appreciation of his approval and he bucked his hips involuntarily, causing me to take him deeper. My other hand gently massaged his balls and I could feel them begin to tighten beneath my touch. I smirked wickedly as I pulled his length out if my mouth as he let out a frustrated groan.

"No you know how I’ve felt for months," I breathed before I was harshly pulled to the edge of the bed. He literally ripped my black lace panties off my body before slamming his full length into my body. He quickly started to fuck me with hard, fast, and deep thrusts.

“God you’re so fucking tight…” He hissed, slowly down slightly when I winced. It had been a long time since we had sex but damn did it feel good. Once my body adjusted to his huge member, Brian started to build up speed, playing with my nipples in the process.

"Oh my fucking god, Brian," I screamed as he pounded me in the most tender area. His hands grip my hips as I felt the pleasurable sensation rise inside, gripping the headboard in the process. I wrapped my legs around him and began to meet his thrusts to get my release. At the same time, Brian began to run his calloused fingers over my swollen clit and I cried out his name loudly as the orgasm tore through my body.

My inner walls vised down on his dick and he came hard inside of me. “Oh, fucking hell, Ave,” he screamed, his face contorted in sheer pleasure before he collapsed down on top of me. “God…babe…” he panted as I wrapped my weak arms around his neck and pulled him closer to me for a kiss. Brian's lips gently kissed me back as I realized what we've just done.

I pinched my eyes closed as Brian pulled me into his warm body. Shit, what the hell just happened? No, I wasn’t supposed to give into him but I honestly couldn’t help myself. There was just something about the man that kept drawing me in no matter how much I tried to get away. Was that love?

“I love you, babe,” Brian breathed in my ear before I drifted into unconsciousness.

The next morning I awoke to the bright sun burning through my closed eyelids, making the insides look like an intense fire. I didn't dare open them because then I knew that this moment would be over: this comfort, total relaxation, and peace. It was funny how time played that little trick on you and today I was going to stretch that it to its limits. That was until I felt an arm sling around my waist.

I instantly froze, my eyes jolting open as everything that happened last night came flooding back into my mind. Within seconds my peace was gone and was replaced with utter panic. No, I couldn’t have actually slept with Brian…that was supposed to be a dream. I was just imagining all this! I carefully peaked over my shoulder, suppressing a light whimper when I saw that handsome face sleeping peacefully.

I pinched my eyes shut, mentally kicking myself over and over as I replayed the previous night in my head. What the hell was I thinking sleeping with Brian? I promised myself that I wasn’t going to let him do this too me, and look where that got me. Sure the sex was AMAZING but nothing was solved between us. He still cheated on me and really hurt me. But after last night, I didn’t know what to think. He told me so many things and made me feel things that I had tried to forget that I didn’t know what to believe. My head spun with confusion and a million questions.

Should I believe him and forgive him for cheating on me and breaking my heart? I mean, what if he was telling the truth and that it all was some twisted misunderstanding? It wouldn’t be the first time that we had a miscommunication in our relationship. But what he did this time hurt me so much more than anything in the past. Would I ever be able to forgive him for crushing me time-after-time? And what about James? Damn it, I was so confused and I had no idea what I wanted.

What would happen when Brian woke up? Would he expect us to go back to the way we were? Did I want that? No, I didn’t think it was possible to pick up where we left off. Too much had happened over the last six months and he had completely crushed me. And what would I even say to him anyway? I didn’t know what I wanted, let alone what to think about the whole situation. Did I still love him? Of course I did. I never stopped loving him and I knew that if he looked me in the eye that I wouldn’t be able to resist him. But I couldn’t go there. I couldn’t go down that path again knowing that I would just get crushed all over again. I had to get out of here before he woke up because I couldn’t deal with all this right now. I was too confused.

I carefully crawled out of bed, Brian letting out soft snore as I lifted his arm. As I stood up, my eyes wandered over Brian’s sleeping body, a small smile coming over my face. He looked so peaceful and handsome as he slept and I knew that there was no denying that I still loved him. But could I forgive him? I guess I would really have to think about that.

As I got dressed in the pieces of clothing I could find, my mind wandered to the past. God he used to make me so happy and I couldn’t take my eyes off him. But now? Now I could only think of the pain that he caused me and the worst part was that I still loved him. I wanted to take him back and forget about everything but I couldn’t. I just couldn’t. Not to mention that I was confused about everything. Would he hurt me again if I went back? What about James? How did I feel about him? Damn, I didn’t know anything anymore.

My head was spinning as I picked up my purse and slowly headed out the door, careful not to wake Brian. I just didn’t know what to say or do when he woke up. I had a lot of thinking to do and a lot of things to figure out.

Just as I pulled the door shut, I heard Brian mutter, “Mmm….Ave…I love you…” I silently latched the door and leaned against the back of it, letting the tears roll down my cheeks, knowing that this was going to hurt him. But I couldn’t face him right now…I just couldn’t. What the hell was I going to do?
