Hell To Pay

Bittersweet Dessert

"Okay, first, I'm really sorry. For everything. I know I don't deserve your forgiveness, you have every right to be angry. But I just want you to know that I hope you can live your life happily. I really do."
"You're done?" Sam looks at him, waiting for anything to comes out from him but he's done.
"I am."
"Okay. My turn. What the fuck did you all thinking when deciding what's better for my life? I mean, I can't fully blame you because apparently Chad is in this too. I hate it, but I can't mad at him. It pissed me off......" She stands up, trying to get close to him.

"....but then I realized. I should've listen to myself when I feel something, the moment I saw you after the hospital incident. I feel like I know you more than you say I do. It feels so wrong when I dreamed about you while I was sleeping next to Josh. Now I know why I feel that way."
"Maybe the bad memory that I caused you."
"No. It's a trace of my feelings. Right now when I see you... I know I'm no longer angry about how you cheated on me. I angry because you and everyone decided that I can't start another chance with you. Not that Josh isn't good, it's just... I didn't feel it with him. Maybe I was pushing too far because I was angry at you at that moment and confused between a comfort and true feelings." She put her hands on his cheeks, waiting for him to say anything. "If that so... Can you not run away from me? Give me that one chance."
"I'm done running. I'm done being a stupid little prick. Maybe you were a jerk, maybe you cheated on me, but that's the hell that I should pay. And.... I'm willing to try it one more time."

He smiles slightly, holding a good tears from his eyes. "You sure you won't bail yourself right now. Because I'm not gonna let go of you after you say yes."
"Yes. You little bastard. Come here." She put her lips on his, claiming what's been hers these whole time. All the happiness is on their shoulders and Taylor don't want to waste any more time from now on. "Since we're here, can I ask you something?"
"What?" He pull out a key chain that she returned to him that day. The one that he bought for her. And then he takes it out from his car key, raising it on his hands and get closer to her ear.

"It's technically just a keychain but... Will you marry me?" She looks slightly surprised but she takes it very positive and nods her head. "Yes. Now put that keychain in my middle finger to make it official."
"Alright then." He chuckled as well put that on her finger. "Now, you sure don't wanna call your brother? Because... You know, he's gonna be mad at me for not telling him."
"Oh come on, he's just a very big teddy bear."
"Teddy bear that can punch me for sure." He says as he place another kiss on her. "Wait a second, I got an idea." She takes off the keychain and pulls her phone to call somebody.

"Yes, all of them. Right now." After she put the call down, Sam goes after Taylor's arms and drag him to a nearest church where they can see a preacher is there by himself by the tme they walked in. "Can I help you two?"
"Father, can we get married in front of you, like right now?"
"This is your idea?" Taylor almost burst laughing when he knows what she's about to do. "How's that father?"
"Technically, yes you can with at least one witness, even though I recommend a more prepared one." Sam looks to Taylor, pretty sure that she wants to do this. "Let's do it. What will you say, Taylor?"
"Let's do it."
"But wait, we have to wait."
"Wait for what?"
"Attendees."
"What? Are you kidding? Who?"
"I told Chris to bring your whole band, and also my brother's band."
"Awesome!"
"I know right? Just wait a minute...."

"We're here!" Chris rushes in followed by Dave, Nate, Pat, Chad, Anthony, Flea, and finally Josh who's smiling to her slightly. "Ah, you're all really here!" Taylor hugs all of them and when he comes to hug Josh, he stop for awhile, "Thank you Josh. For everything that you did."
"Don't mind it Taylor. I know it's for the best."

"Alright! Get the seat and be quiet!" Nate tells everyone to sit down before the preacher takes a spot in between Sam and Taylor. The vows come out naturally, like both Sam and Taylor are prepared for this.
"Yes, I do." Sam almost shed a tear when Taylor put the keychain on her finger.

"Oh god!!! Finally my sister got married." Chad hugs her soon as they got out of church. She then looks at him in the eye and says, "Thank you. For being a great brother."
"Oh come on, don't be sappy. You're a wonderful sister as well. Anyway, Josh is probably waiting for you."
"Josh?" She's looking back and forth to Josh and Chad. "Something is wrong?"
"No, he said he wants to talk to you." She looks to Taylor who's gladly let her take the chance. "Go on. Don't look at me like that."

Sam walks to where Josh had standing for a couple minutes. "Hey Josh."
"Sam. I bet Chad told you about me?"
"Yeah. He said you want to talk to me?"
"Uh uh. I just want to congratulate you. I'm glad you finally made it."
"Josh I'm sorry..."
"No, really. Don't say that. You don't have to feel sorry about your own happiness. I should've known that from the start. Anyway, don't be so hard on Taylor. We know he's a good guy." He chuckled. "I know that Josh. I was...stupid."
"Alright, alright. Keep that one for him." He smiles, "Also, I'll be out of town for a couple months before about tour kicks off." Sam looks at him, confused, "You're going?"
"Yeah. With Bob. We'll be traveling for some times."
"Seems fun."
"Yeah. You should try that with Taylor sometimes."
"I will... I will.." Sam than hugs him before he takes off. "Thanks a lot Josh. For things you did for me."
"Don't mind that. Anyway, I should be leaving now. I think Bob is already waiting."
"Okay. Take care."

Taylor is already waiting for Sam in the car. "How's that?"
"All good."
"No hard feelings?"
"Nope."
"Good." He open the passenger door, let her comes in. Soon as she sits down, she put her hand on his cheeks and his cheeks turn red. "We should go back."
"Why?"
"We got some business."
"What business? Is it including you, me, and bed?" She purposely get herself closer to him and kiss the bottom of his lips.

"Now you're getting me rushing."
"That's better. Trust me, the rush will definitely pays off."
