"Rise an shine its like 1:30" Joe said shaking me awake.
I lifted up my head and suddenly felt dizzy.
"Carm you don't look too good.." He said sounding concerned.
"I'm fine." I mumbled getting to my feet.
"Any work for me today." I asked from the bathroom slipping on black sweatpants and a white crop top and brushing my hair until all the naughts were out then brushing my teeth.
"Yeah you gotta do some Pierce The Veil and Motionless In White posters." He answered leaving the room.
I stepped out of the bathroom grabbing a sprite from the mini fridge then headed into the basement. I walked into the editing room oblivious to the fact Tony's siting in the corner texting away. I started flipping through the files before i heard the door slam shut and lock. The door locks from the outside with a key that we keep on top of the door and one on the inside to get out. I searched for the key and realized it wasn't there.
"This isn't funny Joe open the door." I hissed trying to push the door open.
"Not until you and Tony talk everything out." I Joey called dropping the keys and walking away.
"Joe i'm not fucking kidding you better open the damn door!" I yelled. He didn't answer and i turned around to face Tony
"I have nothing to say to you." I groaned siting back at the computer opening more photos.
"Please Carmen, just listen to me." He pleaded sitting next to me.
"What am I listening to? You telling me you didn't mean anything you said and that i'm a whore? That you feel pity because I almost died and thats the only reason you talk to me? Or am i just another rebound like April was because you still love Stephanie and can't get over the fact that you two are done. If you love her so fucking much than get her back and don't bring me in your twisted life." I barked feeling my eyes turn glassy.
"You know what, you changed. You're not that happy girl anymore that i was falling for. I was in love with you and i didn't mean to abandon you at the hospital but i couldn't face you after that night. I didn't know who that girl was, i was drunk off my ass and i didn't even know we went to a bar. I know i screwed up but you're not making it any easier. I know you're pissed off at me and i don't care. I just want you back. The real you." He muttered shooting his eyes away from mine.
"No one likes the real me. I am so pathetic and worthless its not even normal. I function like a fucking animal! I hide my real feeling so no one was to worry about me. But if you want the real me here i fucking am. A worthless piece of shit that fucks everything up and ruins peoples lives. I'm unstable, i can't focus on anything, i'm torn up, i want to run away and hide. Tell me how you feel about me now. Tell me how happy you are that I'm 'back' that i'm me again. Fucking tell me Tony because i'm not sure i even like the real me." I sobbed putting my hands over my eyes.
He hugged causing me to hide my face in his neck. Rubbing my back in circles he started slowly rocking me trying to console me.
"You're not a worthless piece of shit. Carm.. You're gorgeous, sweet, and have the best personality. I love you, we all do and you know that. I want you to be happy and talk to me about everything. I can't lose you like i lost Stephanie. You mean more to me then any girl i've ever met. I'm in love with you Carmen. I really am." He said squeezing me into a tighter hug. I started crying even harder and hugged him back.
"Do you forgive me?" Tony whispered.
I nodded my head and pulled away. He put his forehead on my and attached out lips. I felt a spark as our lips moved in sync. Suddenly the door open and we shot our heads towards Joey who had a huge smile of his face.
"Finally." He said pulling us out of the room.
"We're all going out for dinner so go put on something pretty you two." Vic stated as he walked upstairs followed by Joey, Tony, and I.
I got changed into a black v-neck shirt, a black pencil skirt with white designs, straightened my hair, and added mascara and eyeliner. I wasn't a huge fan of wearing makeup but i do when i want to. I walked out to find Tony in black skinny jeans and a white t-shirt.
"Fancy." I giggled sarcastically as he walked me out of my room.
"I try." He smiled as we all left for some Chinese restaurant.
We arrived aggravated with Jaime and Mike who decided to have a sing along on the way here. Tony and I walked in hand in hand while the rest of the guys let out 'ooohs' and 'awws'.
"How many?" A waiter asked.
"Six." My brother answered.
"Right this way" she said as we all followed her to a big booth.
I ended up sitting between Vic and Tony while my brother was trapped in the middle of Jaime and Mike. We sat for a little ranting about things, ordered, then continued ranting.
"Tony?" A random girl asked from the side. I looked over and realized it was Stephanie from his facial expression and everyone else's.
"the other night was really fun Tony, we should do it again sometime." She winked slipping him a piece of paper then walking away. I felt my eyes swell with tears as i started at him in utter disbelief.
"Carmen, it's not what you think.." He said ripping up the paper and dropping it under the table.
"I think you had sex with her." I whispered trying my best not to break down in the middle of the restaurant. Mike shook his head in shame and looked away.
"Carmem thats all over now. I want to be with you and thats it. Give me a week and i'll prove it." Tony said pulling me into a hug.
"Whatever." I groaned as the waitress gave us our food.
I finished before everyone else did so i started getting fidgety. I played with Vic's hair half the then switched to Tony's the other half. We were there for an hour until we got in the car and headed home. Tony chased me into my room threatening to tickle me. I hopped onto my bed and shoved myself under the covers to avoid him. He sat on me and started tickling me taking a few breaks to avoid me having an asthma attack.
"Tony stop i'll pee!" I said laughing and rolling around.
"Good! Then you'll have to sleep with me." He smirked ceasing the tickling.
"You wish," i said rolling on top of him so i was straddling his waste. I leaned down and kissed him slowly leaving him wanting more. I rolled off him and laid beside him giving him a devious look.
He quickly got up and pulled me over his shoulder and dropped me down on the other bed. He leaned over me and kissed me harder and harder each time. I quickly pulled off his shirt reviling his tattoos as he did the same to me. He began kissing my neck as i took off his jeans. He found my sweat spot causing me to let out a small moan as he began to nibble and suck at it. He unstrapped my bra and pulled off my skirt and panties then took off his boxers. He began thrusting causing me to let out a few moans into his neck.
"Tony.." I moaned as he we both hit our highs.
He laid down next to me and covered us up as we both drifted off to sleep.
"I love you." He whispered kissing my forehead.
"I love you too."
