Enough

A couple of days passed. It was now a Saturday, but this Saturday was especially exciting because I was going to my first Avenged Sevenfold concert in years. I felt like I was in high school again, getting ready for one of their concerts that was at some bar none of us were actually allowed to be in.

I stared at my closet full of clothing trying to decide on what to wear when I felt a pair of arms wrap around my waist. "You want to do something before the concert?" Zack asked me.

I turned around in his arms and looked up at him. "You know you never have time to do anything before the concert." I smiled. "Sound check, game plan, getting in the zone - all that takes a few hours."

Zack sighed but a smiled played on his lips. "I know. I just want to do something with you."

I smiled and turned back to my closet. "Don't worry about it, Zack. Really, I'm already super excited about tonight. It's been a very long time since I've been to a concert especially one of yours."

Zack kissed me on the cheek and then rested his chin on my shoulder. "I know you are."

Zack and I still hadn't made our relationship official but I was okay with that. I didn't want to rush him into anything, and plus we weren't in high school anymore - we didn't need to make things official for both of us to stay faithful to one another. I knew he wanted to be with me, he just needed a little time and he knew I would wait for him.

"Actually, I think I'm going to steal something out of your closet." I said, turning and walking towards my bedroom door.
He laughed. "You can't just steal my clothes."

"Watch me," I said as I exited the room. Zack followed closely behind me. "Plus, that's what best friends are for."

"What are best friends for?" Val asked weakly from the couch. She was still getting sick all day, every day. The doctor tried to relieve her nausea but to no avail.

"To borrow clothes from." I told her.

"Oh," she said, smiling. "That is true, Zack."

Zack rolled his eyes. "Except she doesn't borrow them, she keeps them. Remember my Iron Maiden shirt from middle school? You borrowed it and I never saw it again."

"Hey," I said, "That shirt is the only reason we became friends so I had to steal it and keep it safe." Val laughed and I grabbed my keys. "I don't know if I will be back before the concert tonight, do you need anything?"

Val shook her head, "No, and Matt should be home soon with those popsicles that are supposed to help with the nausea."

I nodded and Zack and I headed to the door. "Are we going to see you tonight, Val?" He asked.

"Probably not," she laughed. "But have fun. I know you guys are going to rock it."

"Always do!" Zack smiled before we left.

Zack got into his car and I got into mine. We drove to his house, him occasionally daring me to race him.

"Pussy," He called when I arrived to his house and exited my car.

I punched him in the chest. "Not all of us have that rockstar status, Zachary!" I laughed. "I wouldn't be able to get out of a ticket if we got caught."

He shrugged. "I would have bailed you out."

I laughed and punched him again, but this time he caught my fist and pulled me into a kiss. I grabbed his waist and he let go of my wrist and ran his hand through my hair, down my back and rested it there. I pulled my hand up to his neck and pulled him deeper into this kiss. I felt him smile against my lips and I pulled away.

"I love kissing you," I told him.

He kissed me again, "I know, I'm a pretty great kisser." He smirked and I hit him again.

"Oh, shut up." I said and walked to his front door. "Are you going to let me in?"

He unlocked the door and swung it open for me. I walked in and he immediately picked me up from behind and carried me to the couch. He threw me down on to it and when I rolled over on my back he jumped on me.

"Zack!" I screamed, laughing.

"What?" He whined, "I'm tired, let's take a nap." He nuzzled his face into my neck.

"No," I laughed. "You have a concert tonight and I really, really want to go."

He groaned and nuzzled his face deeper. I began to stroke his hair, enjoying the moment and then suddenly I felt him bite me.

"Ow, asshole!" I shouted, slapping him on the back of the head.

"Sorry, you smelled so good I just had to take a bite." He said when he raised up.

"You're stupid," I told him. I pecked him on the lips and then pushed him off me. "I'm going to go raid your closet now." I walked up stairs and a few seconds later, Zack followed me.

I began to look through his shirts and he laid on the bed. "What exactly are you looking for?" He asked me.

"Something cute." I told him.

"Cute? I don't own anything cute." Zack said.

I laughed. "Shut up, you know what I mean." I pulled put one of his Vengeance University shirts. "Like this."

I turned and showed him. "Beks...that's a zombie shirt. Not really something someone would classify as cute."

I shrugged and walked up to him. "True, but I'll look cute in it."

"True," he agreed.

I pulled my shirt off and threw it at Zack. I wasn't worried about him seeing me in my bra, he had seen me plenty of times in my bra before and that's not including the time he saw me completely naked.

Zack caught the shirt and pulled me down onto the bed with him. "You're going to stop being a brat."

"Or what?" I asked. One of Zacks hands was resting on my hip; the other was holding my hands above my head.

Zack smirked before moving his hand that was resting on my hip up to my stomach and he began to tickle me.

"Stop!" I laughed, thrusting my hips forward in attempt to throw him off me. I failed miserably and it caused him to laugh. I broke one of my wrists free and tried to shove him away but he only grabbed my wrist and returned it next to my other that was still in his hand.

Zack was about to start tickling me again when he phone rang. He pulled it out of his back pocket and answered it.

"Hello?"

I heard a muffled man’s voice on the other side but couldn't make out what he was saying, so instead I took advantage of Zack being distracted and flipped him over so he was on his back and I crawled on top of him.

Zack raised a brow at me and winked as he finished his conversation. "Yeah, Matt I'll be there on time. I got to go." He hung up the phone before Matt could respond. "Whatcha doing?"

"Just sitting here," I told him innocently. Zack rubbed my thighs with his hands and they soon found their way to my butt.

"I kind of like this position," Zack smirked before pulling me down. He pulled me into a kiss and I greedily kissed him back.

Zack's hands ran across every inch of my body, squeezing specific spots every so often.
In a swift, unexpected motion Zack flipped me over so I was back to lying on my back and he was on top of me. He broke his lips from mine and contacted them to my jawline. He left a trail of kisses from there to my throat where he began to nibble and kiss.

I was getting very horny, and I could feel Zack was too. I knew I should stop it, but I didn't want to. Zack was kissing my collar bone now, and was slowly making his way to my chest. His lips landed on the top of my breast before he returned to my lips. I pulled him closer to me to deepen the kiss as much as I could and wrapped my legs around his waist.

I could feel Zack hard against me. Zack ran his hand down my side, across my hip, up my thigh and onto my butt. He gave another squeeze and a moan involuntarily escaped my lips.
I felt Zack smile before he pulled away. "As much as I love doing this with you, and I would really, really like to continue, Matt is expecting me in like twenty minutes."

I groaned. Suddenly I didn't want Zack to leave, I didn't want there to be a concert tonight. I just wanted to stay with him in bed.

Zack gave me a peck on the lips before I released him from my grip. I sat up and pulled the Vengeance University shirt onto my body.

"You know," Zack said, "You could totally just wear your bra tonight. I would completely be okay with that."

I laughed and slapped his arm. "I'm sure you would, pervert."

He kissed me. "I have to go. I'll come pick you up tonight before the concert."

"I can drive myself," I told him.

He shrugged. "I know, but wouldn't you rather show up on the arm of a rockstar?"

I laughed and rolled my eyes. "Fine."

I preoccupied my myself for the next few hours by running some errands, getting ready for the concert and checking in on Val, who was feeling better but not better enough to go to the concert tonight. I had just got done slipping on my converses when Zack walked through the door.

"Sure let yourself in, Zacky V." Val laughed.

He smiled. "I didn't know if you were sleeping or not, I didn't want to ring the doorbell and wake you. How are you feeling?"

"Better," she told him. "Give Matt a big kiss for me when you get back. Tell him I'm sorry for missing his concert."

"It's not like it's his first," I laughed.

"Or his last," Zack grinned.

"That's true," she agreed.

Zack turned his attention to me. "You ready?"

I nodded and grabbed my purse and phone. "Yeah, let's go."

Zack and I said our goodbyes to Val and walked out the front door. Zack climbed into the driver’s side of his car and I got into the passenger's side.

When we arrived to the venue where the concert was being held I was amazed by how many cars and people were there. I could hear heavy rock music protruding from the building.

"Who's playing?" I asked Zack. I was so excited about seeing my friends play live again I didn't even consider who else was here.

"I don't know the opening band, but Of Mice & Men should be playing right now."

"I love them," I expressed.

"I'll introduce you to them if I can," Zack smiled.

I smiled back and hooked my arm with his, "Okay, but are you going to get mad if I run off with Austin Carlile?"

Zack shrugged, "He is a good looking motherfucker."

I laughed and Zack kissed my cheek. "I missed doing stuff like this with you. You know, just hanging out, going to concerts..."

Zack interjected, "fucking shit up."

I chuckled. "Yes!"

Zack walked to a side door where a security guard stood. Zack flashed him his badge that was around his neck, and the security guard opened the door and allowed Zack and I to walk in. We walked down the hallway and into a room with a plain piece of paper with "AVENGED SEVENFOLD" printed across it. Zack walked in and I followed him.

"It's about damn time, ZV." Brian hollered. He had a beer in one hand and a cigarette in the other.

"Shut up." Zack said.

Matt walked up to me; he was tying a bandana around his head. "Bekah, how's Val?"

"She's fine, Matthew." I told him, "She said she's feeling better and she's sorry she can't be with you tonight."

Zack kissed Matt on the cheek. "That's from her. I'm assuming she would have kissed you on your mouth but..."

"Nah, the cheek is good, dude." Matt laughed.

Zack walked to the back of the room where his back pack sat and he pulled out a shirt. He
pulled his old one off and I watched him as he pulled the new one on. He turned around and winked at me.

"Twinsies," he said pointing down at his shirt. He was wearing another one of his own Vengeance University Zomby shirts. The only difference between the one I was wearing and the one he was wearing was mine was a t-shirt whereas his was a cut off tank.

"Aw, aren't you guys just so fucking cute," Michelle said from Brian's lap. I couldn't tell if she was being sarcastic or sincere so I decided to ignore her.

"Who's going to be your drummer?" I asked.

"Mike," Johnny said. "I think you've met him before."

I nodded. "Where is he?"

"Watching Oh Mice & Men." Brian answered.

The loud rock music stopped, and I knew Of Mice and Men had finished their set. There was a knock on the door and a woman with a headset stuck her head in.

"Guys, you're on in 15," she said before smiling and pulling her head back through the door and shutting it.

"You going to watch backstage or out with the fans?" Zack asked me. Their fans had no idea who I was unlike Michelle, Lacey and Val so I was safe to from those crazy I-hate-your-girlfriend fans they had.

I thought about it for a second. "Backstage," I told him.

Zack nodded and grabbed his in-ear monitor and stuck it into his pocket of his jeans.
The guys began to do their pre-show ritual and I stood back and watched. It was funny because some of their ritual was the same thing they did back when they began playing concerts. After getting amped up, one by one the guys checked their appearance in the mirror before exiting the room. Matt slipped on his hat before exiting the room and Zack followed with me closely behind.

We got closer to the stage and I saw the band members from Of Mice and Men standing in an opening drinking water and dabbing their faces with a towel.

"Man, you guys are going to have a blast out there," Valentino, the drummer, said.

"Good crowd?" Brian asked.

Valentino nodded, he opened his mouth to respond but his phone began to ring. "Sorry, guys I got to take this." He walked off.

"Great crowd," Austin, the vocalist, corrected. "Dude, they were so fucking amazing."
"That's what we like to hear!" Matt smiled.

"Avenged Sevenfold, you're on in five." The lady from before called once again.

"Alright, you guys have a good show!" Austin said. He did some sort of hand shake with Brian, Johnny, and Matt and they walked off.

"Hey, real quick dude, I want to introduce you to someone." Zack said to Austin. "This is my girlfriend, Bekah."

My stomach did a flip when Zack mentioned me as his girlfriend. "Hey, Bekah!" Austin smiled. "It's nice to meet you.”

"Yeah," I smiled, still thinking about what Zack had just said. "You too."

“And you have the whole matching thing down, that’s cute!” Austin said.

Zack and I laughed. "I better get going before they start without me," Zack smiled. We said our goodbyes to Austin while he wished Zack luck and walked off.

Zack walked to where they had his guitars set up and grabbed his black one with gold death bats and ZV's. He pulled his IEM out of his pocket and fit it into his ear.

"Girlfriend, huh?" I smirked.

He grinned and the lights began to light up the stage. The crowd cheered.

"Sevenfold! Sevenfold!"

"I told you, I did my waiting. I'm ready." He kissed me quickly on the lips before running out onto the stage.
