"Wow, this house is beautiful! And big, I've never seen anything like it." – I was completely enchanted, everything had so much detail and light.

"Glad you like it, say hello to your new friends, they're sitting over there on the couch." – I looked at a room to the side and went in, it was a movie theater and there were really other people there.

"Hello." – I tried to make a good first impression. I tried, and I think I failed miserably.

"Guys, this is Madeleine, our new friend." – Brian helped me to break the ice a little, I don't know how to speak properly with people I just met.

"Hello Madeleine!" – Said the four other guys in chorus.

"Hello, nice to meet you all!" – I replied calmly and sat on the couch.

"So let's start with the basics, introduce yourselves to Madeleine." – Brian commanded and they obeyed, they all seemed to have a fun energy, I was loving it.

"I'm Jimmy, stage name The Rev, I'm not very interesting but I like ducks and I'm the drummer in our band." – Jimmy was very tall, even sitting his legs were almost my size, he had a unique haircut and very blue eyes.

"I'm Johnny, stage name Johnny Christ and I'm very short as you can see, nothing like Jimmy, and i'm the bassist of the band." – Everyone immediately laughed at the horrible joke he made.

"I'm Zachary, stage name Zacky Vengeance, I play guitar and I also play with..." - A guy who had a dark blue bandana on his head and sunglasses quickly interrupted him.

"Zachary, don't you dare finish that sentence in front of her, hey I'm Matt and I'm the lead singer, stage name M. Shadows." – Everyone laughed again because of Zacky.

"And as you already know me I'm Brian, I'm the lead guitarist and my stage name is Synyster Gates" – I memorized each of their names in seconds, I was really enjoying meeting them.

I spent the whole afternoon being questioned by them which was natural, they wanted to know a little more about me. I was telling a little about my life and how I met Brian a few hours ago, and why I came to sleep here tonight.

"You got kicked out of school TODAY and then you broke a guy's nose?! That's amazing!" – Zacky laughed and the way his laugh sounds is funny and contageous as hell.

"Gates, I think you had good aim in choosing our new friend." – Shadows smiled and we spent hours talking about me, and they ended up telling a little more about their life as a newly created band.

We all had dinner together, we ate a big pizza in celebration of my presence here, in the midst of lots of laughter and screams, it's here that I feel good, this was my new family and I had no doubt about that. I felt alive for the first time in a long time.

However after so much laughing, eating, watching TV and laughing some more, we started to get sleepy. Everyone said good night and went to they're respective rooms, I followed Brian to his because I wanted to see his huge collection of guitars that he told me so much about during the afternoon.

"Madeleine, make yourself comfortable, this is the corner of the house where I spend the most time everyday." – I couldn't believe it, he had guitars everywhere! Guitars on the walls, on the floor, on stands... I was lost, I sat in his bed just watching.

"Brian, you told me you had a collection, not a store." - Brian laughed at the comparison and sat down next to me.

"I don't think I'll ever complete the collection, every day I see different beautiful guitars and I feel the urge to buy them!" – He looked at each one with a special affection, it was amazing to meet someone like me.

"I feel you." - I replied.

"You do?" – A few hours ago I told Brian that I also loved playing guitar, in fact, I talked to him long enough to know that we have a lot of things in common, some of them really ridiculous things but we still have them in common.

"Hell yes." – Brian smiled at my answer.

"Well, it's getting late, the only guest room we had in the house was remodeled because we made our studio there, so I'm going to sleep in the living room and you stay in my bed, okay?" – I wish I had paid attention to what he said, but I didn't heard a single word. I was more concerned with observing every detail of him, he was perfect. I've never felt like this and I'm head over heels, "confused" is not enough to describe what I feel.

"Maddly, did you hear me?" - Brian approaches me and I couldn't stop seeing his charming look. My cheeks felt hot too when he called me by my new nickname.

"Brian- Huh yes, I heard" – I took a shock of reality in seconds and went back to the normal world, anyone gets lost looking at him.

"No, you didn't, you were more busy imagining other things with me." – I choked on my own saliva, how did he know?! I'm going to have to cover this up ASAP, I don't want him to think I'm crazy, we literally met today.

"I don't know what you're talking about, that's fucking bullshit." – I don't know if I've already convinced myself, but I'm terrible at lying.

"Yeah sure, but I'm just going to say this one more time, I'm going to sleep on the couch downstairs because the only guest room we had was remodeled to make us the studio, so you sleep in my bed." – Brian spoke with a curious tone, I was letting myself be carried away by his conversation. He's good at what he does to me, I don't know what it is, but it's special.

"Yes, thank you and good night." – I tried to divert the subject as quickly as possible.

"Alright, since you didn't go home to get clothes, you can use mine, the closet is in that door in the corner. Good night." - He closes the door slowly and I hear him going down the stairs.

I decided to go see his closet right away, as soon as I opened the door the lights automatically turned on, revealing countless pieces of clothing of all kinds, and thankfully most of them were black.

I grabbed his t-shirt and some tight-fitting shorts, I closed the door and changed. I then went to bed and couldn't sleep, I find the house and the bed very strange when I'm not sleeping at home. I've been like this for as long as I can remember, and it pisses me off a lot.

An hour passed, two, then three. I couldn't sleep, the clock marked two o'clock in the morning. I got tired and decided to get up and go to the living room where Brian was.

Maybe he was awake? I really need to talk to someone to get some sleep or something.

As soon as I went downstairs I looked at the couch and Brian wasn't there.

"Bri-" – Before I finish the sentence, he appears behind me out of nowhere and in silence.

"Hello Maddly- DON'T SCREAM!" - Brian had the reflex to put his hand over my mouth so I wouldn't scream and wake up the whole house.

"OH- Well, I wasn't expecting this one, can't you sleep either?" I questioned as he slowly removed his hand from my mouth.

"No... not really, but what is happening to you not being able to sleep?" - Brian asks and starts to go upstairs, I follow him.

"I am feeling very weird about the bed and the place, I can only sleep well at home." – He went into his room and lay down on the bed.

"I already knew you were going to say that, do you trust me?" – He had his arms open while making a "come here" expression with his eyebrow.

"I trust..." – Could this be happening to me? He wants me to sleep next to him? It has to be a dream.

I lay down next to him and he gave me a huge hug as he covered us with the vast blankets on his bed, this was all happening so fast and I'm so confused.

"How do you feel?" – Brian asked and I lay down on his chest, my heart felt like it was going to jump out of my mouth.

"Good, very good." – My voice was shaking, this can't be happening to me. What's so special about this son of a bitch to leave me like this, it's all so new.

"Good Maddly, now try to sleep." His hand traveled through my hair, gently stroking my entire head.

I hate to admit it, but in less than five minutes I was fast asleep. And how good I slept next to him, I had never felt so safe in my life.
