Happily Ever After (Synyster Gates fanfic)

When Feelings Overwhelmed.

"How can I be SUCH an asshole?" he shouted as he sobbed even more.

Lena just looked at him, unable to actually do anything. She hasn't seen him so upset before. She was glad he expressed his emotions but she hated that it had to be this way.

"It's ok" she told him. "you were drunk and high and all that.."

"Okay but was that a reason to act like an ass? I bet no" he wiped some of his tears and lighted a cigarette. 

She watched him inhale and relax, gaining back his normal breathing. What could she do, she had to tell him after all. If it wasn't today, it would be the other day or never. So she decided not to feel guilty about it, it just had to be said.

"Lena?" 

"Yes, Brian?"

"I don't know what to say. Just that I'm sorry, really."

"Don't worry, baby. I understand" she hold him close.

"I wish you do" he exclaimed

"Okay, now let's get going! If we stay a bit more here, we'll both just cry our souls out" she laughed a bit reluctantly.

"You're right. Bye Jimmy. We'll come back later, I love you!" he looked at the grave for the final time and then he stepped forward to the cemetery's door.

"Yes, bye Jimmy. We love you and we miss you" she sighed as she followed him.

When they found their car, there was a moment of silence.

"Ok, gimme the keys Brian" 

"No way, I'm driving us home, I'm not drunk.. yet"

"I said give me the keys, Gates! Or do you want me to go on foot?"

"Alright, take them!" he shouted as he threw her the keys.

They got in and Lena started driving. The silence remained and she made a move to break the ice. She rested her hand on Brian's thigh and called his name. He didn't respond. He turned his head to face the window and closed his eyes instead.

"Fine then, Haner" she became pissed with his cruel attitude.

After a while, he finally spoke.

"Hey, can you please stop the car somewhere? I need to get some air, ya know?"

She looked at him in suspicion but she did as she was told.

Once he got out, he opened her door too, inviting her out by giving her his hand.

"Come on, I need to tell you something, okay?"

"Uhm, okay. I don't have anything to lose, right?"

"Right" he replied as she got out. "So.. I want you to know that I'm sorry for being a prick now. Feelings took over me. Shouldn't be this way."

"Bria-"

"Also, let me finish, today I've booked tickets to Cuba. One week there and then we'll go  to Spain for a 2-week trip."

She stared in awe as he announced her the news. "This man does everything for you to be happy and you've already fucked up his emotions several times" she thought to herself and hugged Brian really, really tight.

"Brian, I love you! You can't believe how much I do!" she told him as tear run down her cheek. "I'm sorry for being so tough with you today, baby. Oh god, I'm a horrible wife"

"No, it's ok. You're a wonderful wife baby, I love you too" he hold her in his arms.

"I love you, I love you, I love you" she screamed and kept crying like a baby.
