if they're perfect, you love them (the rev/avenged sevenfold fanfic)

The truth behind Jimmy

Jimmy's POV

"I think I've made up my mind." Anastasia whispered into my ear, barely audible. I just chuckled lightly before picking her up bridal style. I dropped her on my bed, gently. Then I plopped down next to her. I turned to look at her, and saw her staring at me. "Why me?" She asked as she turned onto her back so she was looking at the ceiling.

"What do you mean?" I asked. I had no idea what she was talking about. "I mean why me? Why do you love me? The fuck up, the freak, the emo bitch, the gothic slut."

"You are none of those things. You are perfect to me, and I love you." I gently pecked her on the lips. She smiled at me.

"Jimmy?" She asked gently. "Yes, sweetie?"

"I still need to meet your parents." Oh god. Here we go. "I don't have any parents." I said. She looked at me questioningly. "What do you mean?"

"My parents died in a car accident a couple of years ago. I moved here because I know the owner, and they're letting me live here for free." She looked at me with saddened eyes. "So you live by yourself?"

"Yep." I said popping the 'p'. She scooted closer to me. I put my arm around her and hugged her close. She put her arm around my waist. I kissed the top of her head gently.

"I love you." She whispered. "I love you, too." Was the last thing I said before I drifted off into a peaceful slumber. I woke up to a loud buzzing and a soft vibration. I gently shook Anastasia awake. "Fuck you." She mumbled.

"Anastasia, you need to get up. Your phone is ringing." She shot up. She quickly answered her phone. "Hello?! Yes mom. I'm as safe as safe can be. No, I'm at Matt's house." She lied smoothly. "Ok. Bye." She hung up the phone.

"My mom wants me home right away. She wants to have a day of just us two." She started getting up. "Are you sure about that. I thought they beat you."

"Only if my dad's around." She got up and looked at me. Would you mind if I got ready here?"

"Not at all. Bathrooms next door." I said, pointing in the direction of the bathroom. "Ok. Thanks." I smiled and watched her walk off.
