Chapter Four

"Axel was a stalker I had when I was in the orphanage. He was my uncle in one of the failed adoptions. When I got sent back he wasn't too pleased and started stalking me. I got that text and started hyperventilating while looking for my inhaler. And I guess now I'm here" I finished explaining what had happened before I passed out and woke up.

They nodded and went to go get food, but before Andy left he discreetly passed me my phone. I just smiled as a thank you. I didnt feel like talking anymore.

I unlocked my phone and pulled up facebook, scrolling through notifications but stopping once I see a new friend request, normally I didnt look at these but the name got me hooked.

'M. Shadows sent you a friend request'

I rolled my eyes, but clicked Accept anyways. I furrowed my eyebrows once I clicked on the supposed M. Shadows profile, only to find that the name had changed to Matt Sanders. Security thing, maybe? I still didn't buy it.

My phone dinged as I was finishing up a game of candy crush, and I clicked on the little circle bubble in the corner of the screen, and it said Matt Sanders sent you a message.

I sighed, convinced this is a fake account or something along the lines of that, but I read it anyways because I was rather lonely. Fake or not, I could use an internet friend to rant to, someone that I doubted I'd ever meet.

Boy was I wrong.

All the message said was, Hey.

So I replied with a simple, Hey, back.

Getting tired of waiting for a response, I searched the room with my eyes for my backpack, which I found beside my bed. I reached over and dug through my bag until I found my headphones; pulling them out and plugging them into my phone and ears, I pressed play on one of my favourite albums.

Waking The Fallen

I smiled and started to relax, which didnt last long as another ding sounded from my phone.

I looked at it, Wanna hang out?

I sighed yet again, of course I'd hang out with Matt Sanders. But the chance of this actually being him? Very low chance.

I replied with a simple, Prove it's really the Matt Sanders, and then I promise we will hang out. Today even if youd like.

I waited what seemed like forever to hear that familiar ding.

But it never came, in its place was the sound that came from a video call. I gulped, but slowly unplugged the headphones and set them on the nightstand, and pressed answer. Only showing a quarter of my face.

I almost shit myself when the screen loaded. Sure enough, I was staring at the real Matt Sanders.

"So? How about we hang out??" He asked, as he smiled making his dimples evident as all hell.

"Umm well I'm kinda in the hospital, but I should be out later today. I'll text you my address, just send me your number on Facebook." I said and he instantly looked concerned

"What? The hospital? Why??" He nearly yelled, and I heard synyster in the background

"Who the hell are you yelling at??" He said as he was walking by but screeched to a halt as he saw the phone screen, at this point my whole face was on show, hair too. And my chest tattoo, which I admit is the same as syn's chest tattoo, only red and black instead of white and black.

"Woah, she's pretty" Brian said and slouched down over Matt's shoulders, "and she has the same tattoo as you bro, looks like she loved the rev, too."

"I did, more than anything, I still do really," I confessed and he smiled, "That makes us happy" Syn said,

Just then a nurse walked in with what looked like forms in her hands, "Oh, I gotta go guys, umm, so I'll see you in a bit then Matt? I asked and he smiled for some reason, "You bet, have fun getting discharged, it sucks" He said and I laughed then pressed the end button,

"So here can you just sign this and then you may get changed and are free to go," the nurse spoke sweetly, I just nodded and signed the paper and grabbed my clothes, walking to the bathroom and changing into my proper clothes, black ripped skinny jeans, my new blue Vans, and an oversized Waking the Fallen hoodie and tried to leave the hospital as quickly as I could, once I finally managed to make it outside I pulled out my phone and lit a cigarette. My phone started ringing just as I was about to press call, "Hello?" I spoke into the phone, waiting for a response, "Hey, so I was thinking about it and thought maybe pick you up instead of wait for you to get home, totally didn't sit outside what I think is your house for 10 minutes before making this decision, but y'know, what do you think?" He rambled on making me laugh, I took a drag of the cigarette and answered him, "That sounds like a fine idea, I'll text you the address of the hospital, bye Shadz" I said and he laughed "Okay, bye now" I hung up and sent him my location,

Reality was starting to set in now and I began freaking out, I was going to hang out with M. Shadows!? He probably only liked talking to me because I wasn't freaking out like a crazy fan, well that's out the window now. I decided to light another cigarette and as I did I saw a car pull up, I assumed it was Matt so I grabbed my bag and walked to the car, sure enough I was right. I kind of didn't want to be right, but I got in anyways and tried my best not to freak out as I was engulfed by his cologne and the slight smell of cigarettes and beer, not a bad smell in my humble opinion.

"Hey" He smiled,

"Oh, hi there" I said in a weird voice, then mentally slapped myself in the forehead, what was that? Oh hi there, real smooth.

He laughed and looked over at me, making me more nervous, "Is someone a little shy now that this is real and I'm here?" He asked with a smirk on his face, before he adjusted his sunglasses and classic backwards cap with the bandana beneath it, and drove off,

"So, where are we going?" I asked, if he wanted to go to my house, I'd have to call Chris and let him know, if not, it could wait a little while.

"Your house, where else?" He asked and turned on the radio, ironically, a song of theirs came on, but it was Fiction, so I didn't mind, I loved Rev's parts in this song, I smiled at Matt and for once in my life felt completely free..until I realized I have to call my dad, I turned down the radio a bit and dialed his number, "Hey Chris-I mean dad, I'm out of the hospital but I'm bringing a friend over, is that cool?" I asked, he laughed, "It's cool with me sweetie, but the boys might tease you about it, and Andy might not like it, but yeah I'm fine with it" I laughed because it sounded like he was eating cake, "Alright thanks dad, I'll let you get back to whatever you're eating right now, "Chocolate cake my girl" He said then hung up after attempting to say I love you,

"Alright, we should be there soon, this is the right neighbourhood right?" Matt asked, and I nodded and looked out the window while turning the radio back up, shortly after, we pulled up to the house, Andy's car wasn't here, neither was CC's or Kellins, it seems like it's just my family here, that's fine with me, that means less taunting later.

"Alright, shall we go?" I asked, about to open the door, but before I could even get my seatbelt off and my hand on the door, Matt had it opened, how did he move that fast? I got out and thanked him as we started walking up to the front door. I walked in and gave Chris a hug before introducing them all to Matt, though I'm sure they have either met or at least have heard of eachother, "Y'know Riot, I didn't think you would bring M.Shadows home, that's a lot better than a lot of guys, but still surprising," Chris said, and I nodded, "Yeah I know, one minute he was just someone I wanted to meet, the next minute, Shadz is driving me home from the hospital, I'm a bit confused too Dad, don't worry"

For the rest of the evening we just sat around talking, it was nice and sweet and nothing I've ever had before. A Family. One that actually cares about me, loves me, and wants what's best for me. It's new, but I love it.
