My Other Half (Avenged Sevenfold)

Untitled Part 59

"Brian? Where are my sleeping pills?" I asked him later that night.

Brian froze, cringing where he sat. He smiled sheepishly at me, then cleared his throat.

"Um, I tossed them out last night." He said quietly.

"What? Why?" I asked.

I knew of one time that I'd had a bad nightmare and managed to wake everyone up. I felt embarrassed, but it was just the one time. I can't sleep for shit lately. Why the hell would he throw them out the night before we are going to get married? I desperately need a good nights sleep.

"Because you don't need them." He stated simply.

"You are such a pussy! Just tell her!" Zack yelled.

"Tell me what?" I glared, crossing my arms.

"You're beautiful." He smiled nervously.

"Goddamn, man! I'll fucking tell her if you don't!" Matt growled.

Brian groaned rather loudly, looking at me painfully. He sighed and made me sit down next to him.

"Babe, you were having nightmares every night you took them. You were screaming in your sleep. You weren't even awake, and I know you don't remember it." He sighed.

"So you didn't tell me!" I shrieked.

"Told you that you should of told her." Johnny muttered.

"Dude, shut up!" Brooks hissed at him.

"I didn't want you more upset. I know you were embarrassed the one time I told you, and I didn't want you feeling that way again. I'm really sorry." He groaned.

"I'm fucking embarrassed now, Brian. You tell me a week later when I only thought it was the one time?" I snarled.

"Do not make eye contact with her." Zack whispered at Brian. "You will only provoke the beast within."

"Baker, I'll kick your ass up between your shoulders blades." I growled, getting snickers from everyone.

"I know I should of told you, but I just wanted to wait until after the wedding. Last night was pretty bad, babe. I'm sorry." Brian said.

"How the fuck am I supposed to sleep tonight?" I snapped at him.

"Thank god I'm good for something." Johnny smiled at me.

"Say what?" I glared at him.

"You made eye contact with her. You know you shouldn't do that when she's pissed!" Brooks glared at Johnny.

"I have a death wish, what can I say?" Johnny grinned.

"Let's try a new method, shall we? A more natural one." Johnny smiled, producing a joint.

I cocked an eyebrow at him curiously. The little fucker has been holding out on me. Johnny lit the joint and handed it to me.

"You're like a bad after school special." I said, watching him laugh.

"Yep. Less talking, more smoking." He smiled.

"Better not be ditch weed." I grumbled at him.

"Hell no! I got it off of Road Dog when I met him that one day." He laughed.

"Definitely not ditch weed then." I smiled, taking a hit.

As I sat happily smoking a joint, Brian's phone chimed. I watched as his eyebrows scrunched together. Wonder what the hell that is about. I didn't have to wonder long because Brian was ready to explode. His face turned about twenty different shades of red as he sat there silently. He was squeezing his phone so tightly in his hand I wondered if he was going to break it.
