I sighed.

It's Sunday night. All we did Saturday  was sit at home and played Saints Row 4. It was a lazy day for all of us. Oli practically stayed in bed all day along with Tay but she got up to get food then went back. Brook was reading a book while I played. It was a chill day.

Earlier today though was basically the same. Oli challenged to beat me in Halo 4. I agreed and kicked his ass. But as of now, it was about 8 p.m. and Taylor wanted to take me out. I nodded as I went upstairs to get my shoes.

I came back downstairs and she was already in her car. Of course. I stumbled over to the garage door and hopped into her mustang. 

"Where're we going?" I questioned.

"Somewhere." She smirked. I cocked my eye brows at her. I sighed.

"Okay. Fine with me." I smiled and went along with it.

About 5 to 8 minutes later we pulled in front of the venue that A7X was playing at tomorrow night.

"What're we doing her?" I said, trying not to assume anything.

"You'll see." She had a smirk plastered on her face. I could tell she was nearly gonna burt with excitement for something.

We walked up to the ticket stand and she knocked on the door. About 2 minutes later a man appeared. He seemed to be about our age. 

"Hey Austin" She said walking into the building. Obviously a different Austin than the one we had lunch with on Friday. 

"Hello hello. I'll go get the guys." He greeted. 

Tay lead me to the place people would be standing and moshing at.

"What guys?" I asked curiously.

"You'll see." She still had that freaky smirk on her face.

"You better not be setting me up with one of Austin's buddies Taylor Lynn." I looked at her dead serious.

"I'm not even planning on setting you up with anyone." She said, she looked at me innocently and I could tell she was being honest.

"Okay. Good." I said. We waited there a little bit longer, and I was growing more and more nervous. Right as I was about to get up and tell Tay that I'll just wait in the car I heard feet shuffling. I looked around.

"Hello ladies!" a deep voice said. I turned and right there...right before my eyes was the famous Mathew Shadows. What. Was I dreaming?! Was he really talking to us? WHAT IS HAPPENING.

I tried so hard to keep my fan girling to a minimum.

"Sup Matt!" Tay said noticing my reaction. 

This is Makayla, Makayla this is Mat Sanders or also known as Mathew Shadows." She smiled at me. 

"H-H-Hi." I stuttered. What the fucl. This is so embarassing. I felt like my stomach was gonna come out of my mouth.

"Hey!" He smiled. I would die for that smile. Ugh.

"So where are the others?" Tay asked. I glanced at her. What.

"On the bus, wanna come hang?" He smirked. I felt like dying. Was this real? What.

"Sure!" She smiled back at him.

We made our way to the bus. Taylor had to hold my arm to keep me balanced and to stop me from shaking. This cannot be happening. Oh my god.

"Hey bros! We got company!" Matt stepped into the bus first, then Tay, then me. I was hit with the scent of different colones and alchol. I looked around the front lounge of the bus. I could barely breath. Zachy Vengance and Johnny Christ were both sitting there. They greeted me and Taylor. I could barely stand anymore. 

"Hey have a seat, you alright?" Zachy asked me. I nodded and sat by him. I couldn't help myself but stare at him. I was sitting next to Zachary James Barker. This can't be happening. 

"She's a little stunned from meeting her favoritest band ever." Tay said. I shot her a I'm gonna kill you but thank you so much later look. I owed her so much for this. I counted the members. Matt, Zacky, Johnny, Syn?...Where was Mr. Gates?

"Synyster is in the can. He'll be out in a sec." Johnny answered me as if he had read my mind.

I felt like I was going to explode. 

"So are you guys comin' to the show tomorrow night?" Zachy asked looking back and forth to me and Tay. I shrugged. I looked over at Tay. She as getting something from her bag. She pulled out 5 tickets. 

"Hell yeah we're going!" She shouted. I looked at her stunned!

"Is this why you were acting weird earlier!?!?!" I practically yelled at her. I couldn't decide if I should be mad at her or be over joyed. 

"Yupp." She said popping the P.

"Why 5?" I questioned.

"Me, you, Oli, Brook, and her boyfriend Mick." She answered with a smile.

I smiled. I swear, I can barely stand her at times but I'm so fucking thankful for her. 

"Who're these people?" I heard a voice. I turned my head to see the sexiest man alive in the doorway to the bunks. The man I loved to much I could barely breathe right before my eyes. It was Brian Elwin Haner. Or the famous Synyster Gates. The man who could play the guitar and make angels cry. 

"This is Makayla and Taylor." Johnny answered him.

"What's up?" He said as he went to take a seat by me. Oh my god. When he sat down I smelt his sweet scented colone. I felt like melting. Seriously, am I dreaming?!

I looked over at Tay, she was just smiling at me. Damn her.

When we all sat there having the conversation of a lifetime about Iron Man and Batman, It was the best time of my life. Although, I couldn't help but notice that only one person was missing...The Rev. I looked down at the floor knowing the fact he was gone. I wish I'd met him before he went. 

"Hey, you okay?" I looked up to find Syn looking at me.

"Yeah..I just wish I'd have met the Rev before he passed." I sighed. 

"I wish you could've too. He would've liked you" He smiled at me. Damn him and that smile. Ugh.

"I'm sorry...I know you were close to him, I know what it's like to lose someone close to me." He nodded. I felt a connection between us. Was this happening? This stuff only happens in movies or fan fiction. What the fuck is going on?

He put his around me, and that snapped me out of my thoughts. I looked at him with a questioning look on my face.

"I guess life just sucks that way." He smiled at me and a chuckle escaped my lips. We joined in the rest of the conversation everyone else was having and somehow they went from superheros to the way you describe tastes. I don't understand.

Before I knew it Johnny had put on some Iron Maiden and Zachy put his arm around me too and we all just sat there singing along and having a good ol' time. I wished this night never ended. 

Hey guys! I hope you like it so far! I just wanted to let you know that this is all fake, OBVIOUSLY but I don't know too much about this band, but in this story all of the band members are single and the rev is dead (obviously again) but they're all still about mid-ish or late 20s :)

THANKS SO FREAKING MUCH.
