Can We Escape From This Afterlife? (Synyster Gates fanfic)

7. Dear God, is this really happening?

Soon enough all the fun couldn't last forever, even though I wish it did. Me and Tay sadly left their bus around midnight or 11:30. We had hung hun out with the since 8. Wow. I knew I would see them tomorrow but it was still fucking crazy! 

"Holy. Fucking. Shit." I said as we approached her car.

"Right?" Tay replied with a smile. 

"So, since you have 5 tickets, who else is gonna go besides us and the other 3?" I asked.

"Well, Vic and Mike may or may not be there. Tino will be, and I'm pretty sure Oli's friend Matt (the drummer) is coming as well." She answered.

"Sweet!" I exclaimed. I was pumped for tomorrow night. Syn invited me over to the venue tomorrow too at noon and I'd be there til the show started. 

"By the way, Syn invited me to the hang with him tomorrow before the show started so I'll be there before you guys." I told her.

"Ooooo! Someone's gotta date!" She said, I knew she'd assume that! 

"NO!! It is not a date, we're just hanging out AS FRIENDS!" I told her. As much as I wish he meant it more than just that, but it's better than nothing! Right?

"Whatever lovergirl!" She told me. I rolled my eyes as we pulled into the drive-way.

"Was tonight awesome, or what?" She smirked at me.

"Hell yeah it was!" I shouted. We walked inside to be greeted by Oli rushing up to Tay whining about being home alone with Brook and Mick and how it sucked because everytime he'd walk downstairs from her room they'd be cuddling. I laughed at him. 

"Shut up." He pouted at me. Whatever. I lunged upstairs. I doubt I would be able to sleep tonight. Especially after that. I could hardly even breathe. I layed there...in bed...just laying there, smiling like a dork. Tonight was UNFORGETABLE.....

I can out of the tiny bathroom. In my opinion that's the only real sucky thing about tour, the tiny-ass bathroom. I walked into the front lounge and noticed 2 new faces I hadn't seen before.

"Who're these people?" I asked openly.

"This is Makayla and Taylor." Johnny had answered me. 

Oh, I thought. They were cute, but the one with darker hair was cuter. She had a magenta like tint in her hair. She looked amazing actually. I had to mentally slap myself to stop staring. She'll think I'm weird if I don't. 

I sat next to her. Everyone broke out into a conversation about Batman and Iron Man and about sass, I think? 

I looked at the girl I was sitting next to. Her name was Makayla if I remember correctly. 

"Hey, you okay?" I asked her so only she could hear.

"Yeah, I just wish I'd have met the Rev before he passed." She sighed. I missed my old best friend. He was one of the closest people in my entire life. Man, I missed him. 

"I wish you could've too. He would've like you." I tried to smile at her. I felt weak.

"I'm sorry, I know you were close to him, I know what it's like to lose someone close to me." She replied. I looked at her with sorrow. I nodded, someone as beautiful as her didn't deserve to go throught that pain. In fact, no one should. 

I put my arm around her to try and comfort her. I'm not necessarily good at this stuff, but I'm trying...

"I guess life just sucks that way." I tried to smile at her again. I felt a bit more stronger that time, but not that much. After that little moment, we joined back into the conversation. I didn't care what anyone else was talking about but I felt a connection between me and this girl. Hell, I already had my arm around her. I smiled.

After a while Johnny put on some Iron Maiden and Zacky put his arm around Makayla as well...I don't know what came over me when he did that though. I got this jealousy like feeling...Was it jealousy? Nah, I'd just met the girl. I don't know...She has such an impact on me. 

A couple hours later of all of us hanging out I asked Makayla to come over later around noon and to see if she would stay until the show or later.

"Of course! Here." She replied and handed me a piece of paper. It had her number, her name and a little heart on it. I smiled. 

"Okay." I hugged her bye and watched her and Tay drive off.

"Does the famous Gate have a school girl crush?" Matt was teasing. I chuckled.

"Shut up dude. It's not a crush." I said to him.

"Then what is it?" He came up to me.

"I don't know man, I just feel like I have a connection with her though, ya'know?" I said. 

"And she's not just one of those band-whores either.." I groaned. I haven't had feelings like this in so long. 

"Just get some sleep man, you'll see her tomorrow." He said, I didn't look at him but I could feel him smirking at me. I didn't even know if I could sleep with her on my mind. She's definitely something else. But what? With all these thought, I eventually went to sleep.
