As Dan told Zach, Maxx, and I to grab our stuff, Maxx never let go of me. When we all got into Dan's car, I played 'That's What You Get' by Paramore, and put on my headphones.
I started dozing off during the 30 minute drive to Sydney's and Dan's house. While dozing in and out of slumber, Maxx held me and kissed my forehead.
"I'm so sorry, baby girl. I should've helped you more. I should've given that fucker what he deserves." Maxx whispered against my forehead. I felt his warm tears fall down onto my head and wetten my hair.
Now it was my turn for the tears to fall. My heart broke at the fact that Maxx felt like he was worthless. Without Maxx, I wouldn't be here today. My tears fell on to the sleeve of his brand new jean jacket. Luckily, my crying was really quiet so nobody heard it.
After the 30 minutes, Maxx carried me inside bridal style and set me on the bed of one of the guest bedrooms Dan and Sydney had in their house. Dropping me on the soft bed, he then walked out and began talking with Dan and Zach.
"Look, Maxx. I think it'd be best for you to sleep with Y/N in the guest room. Zach can take the other one. You're her favorite. And besides, if she has nightmares, you can comfort her and just be there for her." Dan said, quietly. I began changing into some shorts and a t-shirt.
"I already thought of that. I love her more than anything else in the world, besides Pistol and drumming, of course." Maxx said. I saw Dan put his hand on Maxx's shoulder.
"You're a good guy, Maxx." He turned and headed into his and Sydney's room.
Maxx sighed as he walked into the guest room we're sleeping in and sat on the bed beside me, rubbing my leg.
"You should be asleep, sweets. Tonight's been rough for you." Maxx said softly, squeezing my hand.
I was already tired, but I was scared to fall asleep. Luckily, we brought Pistol, so she was snuggled up against me, her soft coat and quiet purring helping me fall asleep.
I woke up with Maxx's arm around my waist. When I looked over at the clock, it read "6:37 AM." I groaned silently, scared of waking Maxx up. As I grabbed my phone from the charger, what I saw was shocking.
"103 Missed Calls from Cody🥰💍."
I rolled my eyes as I plugged in my headphones and began playing some of the voice messages he had left me. The first one began with him crying.
"Y/N...baby...please...I'm so so sorry. She made me do it...she was only supposed to be over to talk about tour venues and that if I didn't sleep with her, she'd ruin our lives—not just mine; Zach's, Dan's, Maxx's, and yours. Whether she was being serious or not, I did it because I didn't want to take the risk..."
The next one played.
"Baby, please... I need you.... I love you and only you.... please take me back... I miss you..."
After about 38 minutes of listening to sad voice messages, I decided to quietly sneak out and call a taxi to go to Cody's house.
When the taxi dropped me off in front of Cody's house, I hesitantly walked up the brick path to the door. I pressed my fist against the door and knocked a few times. Within seconds, Cody opened the door. He didn't look like himself; his blue hair all messed up, his blue eyes bloodshot, his cheeks stained with tears. It was painful to look at the man I loved look like this.
"Cody-" I couldn't finish my sentence before he engulfed me in a hug, him squeezing me harder than he ever had before.
"Baby, you have no idea how much I missed you... I-I'm so sorry for what I did... I-I don't know what I was thinking... I love you... Please forgive me..." He began crying harder. I hugged him back and began crying with him.
"Cody, listen to me. It's okay, I swear. I love you.."
Now, was it really okay he fucked a girl and cheated on me? No. I took him back because I wanted him back too. I loved him. He made me happy. Many people wouldn't want me to, but at the end of the day, it's my decision and my life; I do what I want.
"Baby, I'm so happy to have you back." He smiled while picking me up and kissing me several times. He did that the most. He did it in public, private, wherever he felt like. Everyone found it really cute.
After I called the boys back after they blew up my phone, I told them everything from me catching a cab to Cody's to me forgiving Cody and taking him back. They were all pissed at first, but then they were happy for me.
We all gathered at Cody's place to hang out. I was sitting on Cody's lap as Maxx began to walk over to us.
"Hey, man. I'm...Sorry for beating your ass last night.." Maxx said. Maxx wasn't really one to apologize, so it was weird to see.
"Nah, I totally deserved it." Cody said holding me tightly. I smiled as he pecked my cheek. The five of us continued watching the movie that was on as I was in the arms, once again, of the man I loved and planned to spend the rest of my life with.
