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

17. Sorry, Not Sorry.

Hey guys! :'c I am so fucking sorry for not updating lately. My sleep schedule is a big fault for that, and the fact that I'm a terrible procrastinator. ~ Anywhom, I'm so sorry, but hopefully the next few chapters make up for it. <3

P.S. In this chapter Brook gets her first P.O.V.!!!!!! cx

------------------------Makayla's P.O.V----------------------

I woke up to my phone blaring Syns guitar solo in the song Afterlife. It took me less than 2 seconds to process that he was calling me. I shot straight up from my bed and answered my phone.

"Hello!" I smiled waiting to hear his amazing voice on the other end.

"Hey sweetie!" He said back. I smiled even bigger. I loved it when he called me that.

"Hey!" I giggled. "You woke me up." When I said that I felt heat rush up to my face. I'm such a weirdo. 

"Oh! I'm sorry, I can let you get back to sleep if you want.." He said with a little apologetic tone in his voice.

"No no! It's okay. I needed to wake up anyway, I was planning on making everyone breakfast." I smiled.

"Oh! Okay." I could practically hear him smile on the other end. "Anyway! I was wondering if you could go to the park down by the pet store you work at later today." I smirked. 

"Sure, what for & when." I answered.

"Say, around 1ish?" He said back.

"Okay! I'll call you again before I head over there, I gotta make breakfast." 

"Awe, okay! I miss you! Bye!" He said with a hint of sadness in his voice.

"I miss you too! Bye" I said, then I hit the end call button on my screen. I'm happy on some level he's not the type in relationship where automatically you say "i love you". He takes his time, which makes it all the better. 

I slipped on some better looking pajama pants and headed downstairs to find Brook who had made her signature breakfast brownies. Of course! Haha.

"Morning." I said getting a piece of brownie. 

"Morning." She mumbled. Well fuck. 

"What's wrong?" I looked at her funny. Normally she didn't act this way.

"It's Mick." She sighed.

"What's going on? Did he do something stupid?" I said, sitting next to her on the bar.

"No, it's just...ugh. Fuck." She said frustrated.

"I don't feel the spark I used to with him. I just....I don't have that feeling anymore and I don't wanna continue this thing I have with him." She said looking at me with that look of hurt in her eyes.

"Then tell him. Who knows, maybe he doesn't either?" I said, trying my best to help.

"But one the main problems is I've been crushing on someone..." She said, looking away from me.

I cocked my eye brows at her. 

"And whom may this new crush be?" I said trying to make eye contact again...She wouldn't though.

"jasjkdas babrjabajfr" She said quietly and fumbling with her words.

"Who?!?" I said. I was now determined to keep pesturing her until she said it. 

After about nearly a full ten minutes of my pesturing her she finally said, right as Tay came down the stairs talking to someone on the phone.

"JACK FUCKING BARAKAT." She yelled. At that moment Tay snapped her head in our direction and I smiled at Brook.  Within seconds a huge smile grew on Tays face. Oh shit.
