Their second night together had been so holy christ amazing, that the two were completely dead to the world until half way through the next day.

Brian had climbed in Matt's lap eagerly and ridden him while Shadows had demanded his neverending obedience and faithfulness. While Matt was still tough to take, Brian wanted to give the singer the ride of his life so ride him he did--whether or not he cared about being able to walk the next day. The second after Shads had filled him with come, the singer had pushed him into the cushions of the couch in the rear lounge and fucking swallowed him.

“Matty--” Brian inhaled in shock and dug his heels into the couch around Shads. He knew Matt would never have had a cock in his mouth before, so he couldn’t believe it when it happened so easily, so fast.
And that lip ring did feel amazing--cool against his hot skin.
Fiery hazel eyes looked up and met his and Syn choked on his breath as his hips refused to stay down while he tried to gulp in air. Large hands held him down as his orgasm coursed through him and into Matt’s demanding, eager mouth--leaving Gates a useless, barely-able-to-breathe, moaning mess of a guitarist.


“Dude...I figured this was gonna be a one time thing…” Johnny stared down at their two brothers that were glued together on the couch in the back lounge and so out of it they refused to wake.
Jimmy stared open-mouthed, “What if they're, like, into each other, like really?”
Green eyes met blue in horror, “What?! That's impossible. Experimenting? Whatever. But...no, it’s not possible.” He shook his head in absolute denial.
Although they all had to admit, as the two cuddled--facing one another and arms encircling each other--they looked kind of adorable.
The three looked at one another, “How do we feel about this? Do we talk to them about it?” Johnny asked before they all jumped.

The singer held up a middle finger before opening slits of dominant green eyes, “You back the fuck up is what you do. And leave my guitarist alone.”

Brian woke up to the rumbling from deep within the chest he was cuddled up to. As he looked up at the caged bull threatening to charge, arms encasing him like he was a possession, Syn didn’t think he’d ever been so fucking turned on in his life. Eyes turning up at his friends/bandmates, Gates blushed but then only smiled happily.
It was a travel day, so the other three were in lounge pants and tshirts, except for Jimmy who was, of course, shirtless. The lanky one shrugged, “I’m making breakfast. If you guys ya know wanna eat after you fuck or whatever.”
And they walked off.

Once gone, the strong embrace holding him eased somewhat and the ticking in the cut jaw stopped. Despite how turned on he was, Brian made himself sit up, running his long fingers through his long hair.

Shadows leaned back, raking his eyes over his new lover and putting his hands behind his head. When Syn turned to look, Matt just winked, grinned wide, and flexed--causing Brian to stumble over his words.

“M-Matty...as hot as being owned by you is...is that what I am to you, a possession?”

Shads’ smile drifted away but he only shrugged, “Isn’t that what you want?”

Gates rolled his eyes. That wasn’t exactly the reaction he’d been hoping for. Eyes on the ground and voice soft, he forced himself to continue, feeling like a total girl, “I guess...I thought...that look you gave me the other day...you wanted more than just a fuck.”

Matt, a little confused since to him it was so obvious, sat up on his elbow and reached up to touch Brian’s cheek as beautiful brown eyes met his pleadingly, “Do you need me to say it, Gates?”

Synyster nodded ever so slightly, so Shads sat up until he was looking deep into his lover’s eyes, their faces inches apart, “I love you, Brian.”

The guitarist’s breath caught and Matt leaned in to claim Syn's lips with his. Syn kissed back, quickly getting lost in the soft, very-different-than-last-night kiss. Shads broke away, “That’s what I mean when I say that I need to possess you, Bri.” His eyes fell for a moment, his voice suddenly quiet and tinged with embarrassment, “I’m an extremely jealous lover when it comes to you. In our very short time together, and even before this, I’ve learned that. It’s not because I don’t trust you, nor is it because I think of you as an object. It’s purely because I love you and I need to know you’re mine and no one else’s.”

Syn’s heart skipped a beat as he managed to whisper, “I’m all yours, Matty.”
Dimples appeared as Matt fell back into his normal self, “Good. Now lets get some nourishment so I can fuck you all night tonight.”

Brian tried to hide his whimper as he was hauled off to the main room.

*******************

It bordered on creepy how comfortably Shadows fit right back into his cut-out space within the tight-knit group. They didn’t really act like boyfriends most of the time, other than the occasional wink or butt-slap (which, to be fair, had always been rampant among the five boys). Jokes were made, but the rest of them honestly seemed fine with it. Sure, every now and then they’d realize how weird it was that their singer and lead guitarist were sleeping together, but they mostly shrugged it off since most of the time they acted like they always had.

At the end of that travel day, they had hotel rooms and if he had to be honest with himself, Synyster was so fucking nervous. He’d had little to zero time to adjust to Shadows size and well, Matt fucked just like he looked like he might--hard, fast, grunting, and holy fuck manly. Which made for mind shattering sex, but many regrets the following day.

Despite the fact that they were all best friends, his best best friend was the Rev. True, the Rev was best friends with like, everyone he’d ever met, but if he and Matt got married one day--Jimmy would totally be his best man.
I did not really honestly just think that. Fucking get ahold of yourself, Haner. Seriously.

So that night when they got to their destination and went out for dinner and drinks, Jimmy couldn’t wait to get him in a corner and ask him a million questions. Brian was out of Scotch and got up to get more, looking down into his gorgeous man’s face, “You want anything?”
“Yeah.” Matt's eyes were bright as he smiled in appreciation, “Beer. Thanks.”

Gates happily went to the bar and the Rev skipped after him, sliding into a seat so that they were closer to eye level.
Those crystal blue eyes were always up to something.
“So….”
Brian nervously looked back at Jimmy, trying to shrug it off, “What?”
“You and Shads!! I mean, I saw it coming like months ago, but I thought you guys would just fuck!! Are you guys like dating now?!” He got that excited grin on his face.
Gates blushed and stared into his Scotch, “Uh, yeah, apparently.”
“He seems to really like you.”
The blush deepened as the guitarist laughed nervously, “Yeah, well, I like him a lot back.”

Gates sat and his eyes slowly raised to Jim’s, whose jaw dropped when he saw the look in the puppy brown eyes, “Oh my god, you’re a smitten kitten!!”
“Jimmy! C’mon…” His eyes fell again.
“Why are you embarrassed? I think it’s great!!”
Brian glanced up again curiously, “It’s just so new….even though we’ve been best friends forever, and flirting for months...we’ve only been together a couple days...I just...don’t know what to make of it.”
“But you’re totally in love.”
Gates rolled his eyes, but then let his smile spread over his entire face to match his crimson cheeks, “I totally am.”
Jimmy hit him in the arm and then wrapped him in a hug, “Dude! My best friends are dating! I’m so happy!”
Brian just shook his head and laughed.
“Then why are you so nervous? I’ve noticed how uneasy you seem.”

How did the Rev always pick up on EVERYTHING??

Gates pulled at the back of his own neck, “I’m really nervous...about tonight.” God, he couldn’t wait until he stopped blushing a million times a day.

A huge, knowing smirk plastered itself across Jimmy’s face as his blue eyes teased through thick black eyeliner and eyeshadow, “Yeah, I bet you are.”
Brian gave him a flat look, paying the bartender as he was given Matt’s beer, “It’s so not funny. I feel like a total girl about it. I have no idea what his expectations are or how to act or how I’m going to walk tomorrow.”
Jimmy cackled at his last remark, “Oh, c’mon, don’t think so much, Bri. Just have fun. He wants you and you want him and that’s all that matters.”

Johnny and Zacky were back at the table giving Shads a similar line of questioning. Vengeance was sitting next to Matt, and they were both in eyesight of the bar. Zee noticed his eyes flitting occasionally over to the guitarist.

“Man, you guys aren’t just fucking.”
“No.” Matt chuckled, cheeks coloring a little as his dimples fully popped and hazel eyes twinkled, “Brian’s my soulmate.”

Vengeance almost dropped his beer and Johnny’s beer almost came out his nose.

“Dude. What!?” Christ scoffed.
Shadows shamelessly owned it, like he’d confidently do anything else, “What? I mean, look at his cute little ass over there, being all...Brian-like.”

Eyebrows hit hairlines, “Holy crap dude. You tell him that yet?” The twin lead asked.
“No…” Matt’s eyes finally looked away from his new lover and over to Zack, “I don’t want to scare him away. You know how Gates is. He’s such a flirt. I gotta make him fall for me first.”

Johnny and Zacky shrugged, as if to agree that yes, Synyster was an attention whore who loved to flirt with anything and everyone.
“I did tell him I love him, though, and that he can’t see anyone else.”
“Damn you are moving at lightning speed,” Christ shook his head and downed his beer.

The next moment, Matt had a new beer in front of him and sexy guitarist next to him. Figuring he was macho enough to pull off his next move, Shads slid an arm casually across Brian’s shoulders--making conversation as he did. so it would come off like no big deal.
Synyster tried to look like he was comfortable and tried not to lean into Matt’s chest like he really wanted to. But a small smirk played at his lips and by the time he had finished his drink--he was doing just that.
