The Mysterious Unholy Confessions...

As we walked into the basement again, Synyster caught up with us. Zacky had his hands around my waist, when Matt came over.

"Where were you guys?" Matt accused.

"Um...outside..." I responded cautiously.

Matt just shook his head and looked at Syn who was looking at his cell.

"What's wrong Brian? Your Girlfriend giving you trouble?" joked Matt.

I looked over at him, just when Matt started to laugh. Syn started to turn a deep shade of red.

"Oooo I knew it!" yelled Zacky.

"So?" replied Syn.

I just shook my head and sat on the couch. Johnny came over and looked back and forth between the three of us.

"I just missed something and I'm kind of glad I did..." he laughed.

"You didn't really miss anything, Johnny...just Matt making fun of Brian like normal..." laughed Zacky.

"Awww and I missed it?" smiled Jimmy, coming up from behind Johnny.

Syn was really embarrassed, but all he could do was just ignore it and go along with it. In a way I felt bad for him.

"So what's her name?" asked Johnny.

"Maia..." whispered Syn.

"Really? When are we going to meet her?" questioned Jimmy.

"Um..." started Syn.

"Oh leave the poor boy alone..." I exclaimed.

"You know you want to meet her too..." laughed Johnny.

"So? Stop torturing him..." I revolted.

"I love it when your a rebellious..." smirked Zacky.

"Later..." I laughed.

"Oh...get a room!" yelled Matt.

I just rolled my eyes and sat with the guys until they finished practice. Once they were done the guys all started to head home, but Zacky and Syn stayed for a little longer. This was going to be a long night....especially with Matt, Zacky and Syn.

Synyster's Plan for....Love?

As we got to the top of the stairs, everyone was around the table, puting food on their plates. I went over and sat next to my brother and Zacky sat on my other side. I reached for the rice when Synyster jumped. We all looked over at him.

"Cell phone..." he laughed nervously.

Synyster seemed really nervous about his cell phone. He glimpsed at the front of it and put it back into his pocket. I shook my head and reached for the chicken. I felt Zacky's hand on top of my knee and glimpsed over at him as he smirked. I shook my head and continued to put food on my plate. After we ate, we all went back downstairs to the basement. I sat on the couch when Zacky joined me along with Synyster. Synysters phone rang again as he jumped up.

"I...I got to go take this..." he said and walked out of the basement.

I was really wondering wha was going on with him. I looked over towards Zacky and he just shrugged. I looked over towards Matt as he was talking on his cell as well.

"Hey...wanna have some fun?" I whispered to Zacky behind my back.

Zacky looked at me confused as I nodded towards the door Syn had just walked out of.

"Sure..." he smirked.

We both stood up and walked over to the door and listened.

"I know...I miss you too...I'm at a band practice right now, but I'll be able to go after..."

I looked at Zacky, who shrugged and looked at his feet.

"Alright..I love you too...bye.."

I heard the closing of his cell, when Zacky looked at me.

"What are you two doing?" asked Synyster, standing in the doorway.

"Us? What about you?" revolted Zacky.

"What?" asked Synyster.

I just rolled my eyes and shook my head.

"Who's this mysterious "one" you were talking on the phone with?" asked Zacky.

"That's none your business..."

I laughed and took Zacky's hand.

"Cmon...let's leave this "lover boy" alone..."

I started to walk away with Zacky, when Synyster yelled.

"I'm NOT A 'LOVER BOY'!"

"Yeah! Keep telling yourself that!" I yelled back.

A little Vengeance can go a long way...

As I looked at Zacky, he had a certain look in his eye as if he wanted to say something that would mean so much.

"Zacky...whats wrong?" I asked.

"It's nothing..."

I could tell that he was lying. I took his hand and brought him over to the couch.

"No...tell me..."

"It's just..." he stumbled.

His hair fell in front of his face, which I absolutely hated. He pushed it out of the way and looked up at me.

"I've been thinking a lot..."

"About what?" I asked curiously.

"About our...our friendship..." he responded.

I looked at him confused fo a moment. What the hell was he insinuating? I looked down and played with the ends of my bangs.

"I mean...Matt's told me about your feelings for me..."

I looked up at him, shocked.

"And what exactly did he tell you?" I quesioned, a little furious.

"Oh...not much...just some pages from your journal..." he snickered.

"Not Funny!" I laughed slapping him on the side of his head.

"Yeah it is..." he smirked.

I went to slap him again, when he caught me off guard and took my hand and started tickling me on the couch.

"Zacky!" I screamed.

He continued to tickle me, until he stopped suddenly and looked at me.

"What?" I asked, looking at him.

Without warning, he lunged at me and kissed my lips. At first I was surprised, but went along with it. He pulled away slowly, and looked at me.

"That's what you've been waiting for..." he smirked.

I looked at him, with no response.

"It said that in your journal..." he laughed.

"Matt..." I said under my breath.

"Oh...don't blame your brother...you know that you liked it..."

I looked up at him and smiled.

"Maybe I did...maybe I didn't..." I replied, standing up slowly and trying hard not to laugh.

He wrapped his hands around my waist and pulled me down on his lap. I looked back at him and laughed.

"Hey you two! Are you going to come eat or are you just going to starve to death?" yelled Matt from the top of the stairs.

"Matthew Charles Sanders....YOU'RE GOING TO GET IT!" I yelled.

I started to run towards the stairs when Zacky held me back.

"Run man! RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!" he hollared.

I laughed and ran out of his hands and up the stairs with Zacky following me at my heels.

Shadow,Vengeance,Synyster,Christ, & Reverend?

I grew up with my older brother Matt, who was seen in an adult's eyes as a bad influence for me since he was notorious for his disorderly conduct and misbehavior, but to me he was my idol and best friend. Along with my brother was his friend Zach. Zach wasn't really liked by my parents that much because of the fact that he had grudges against many people who doubted his success. As a matter of fact, I had always had a crush on Zach since the day Matt brought him over to hang out in the basement. Zach was a lefty and played guitar. One day him and Matt decided to start a band, in which he was also responsible for the creation of the acronym "A7X". Stating that the 'A' stood for avenged, and then the 7 stood for 7 and the X was for fold . When they named the band "Avenged Sevenfold" I thought it was an interesting name, especially when I met the other members...

***Flashback 9 years ago (1999)***

"Kaitlyn!" screamed Matt.

"What?!"

"GET YOUR ASS IN HERE!"

I ran into the room and looked at my brother and Zach sitting on the couch in the basement. There were three new guys I had never seen before. I looked at each one of them. Two of them looked like they were Matt and Zach's age of 18, while the other one looked about my age of 16.

"Kait...this is Johnny, Jimmy and Brian..." stated Zach.

I looked at each one of the guys when the member named Brian stuck out his hand.

"You can call me Synyster..." he said.

"Nice to meet you.." I smiled, shaking his hand.

"I'm Jimmy, but they call me the Reverend..." said the guy next to Synyster.

"Okay..." I said, a little interested in the names.

"I'm Johnny, but I get called Johnny Christ..."

I looked at all three guys and smiled. I turned to Zach and Matt.

"What are your nicknames?" I laughed, not expecting an answer.

"Zacky Vengeance and M. Shadows..." replied Zach, pointing to himself and Matt.

"Oh sure...you get cool names..." I laughed.

Matt shook his head and went over to the mic. I went over and sat on the couch, when the guys all sat around and began to play a new song they had just wrote called "To End the Rapture". Synyster was amazing on guitar, while Johnny and Rev rocked it out on bass and drums. I looked over at Matt and saw him for the first time it seemed, having fun. I shook my head and laughed, when Zacky came over and sat on the couch next to me. I tried hard not to blush, but I ended up losing that battle. After the guys practiced for about an hour or so, dinner was ready. Matt went upstairs, followed closely by Rev, Synyster and Johnny. I started to follow when Zacky stopped me.

"Kait..." he said.

I turned and looked at him.

"Whatsup?" I asked.

He walked over to me and looked down.

"Zacky..." I said, lifting his head. "What's wrong?"
