Author's Note (Monster): Hello, our lovelies! I'm very happy to see I've reached twice as much readers in 9 days this month than I had last month in 9 days. Truly, I'm happy about that. I've been sick at home, got the flu but that means I've got time to develop some ideas. Up till now I've got two Love Drabbles, A Riddle Me This chapter and two Untouched chapters ready to be uploaded. Replies to the reviews below, enjoy!
If you have a fav pairing/summary you'd like to see on here, request in the reviews below and we'll turn it into a story.
Happy 50th chapter, guys.
Deuce x J-Dog requested by Deuce Hater 69
How long until you get over your ex?
Do you know the answer? Is it a day? A week? A month? Two months? More? A year? Two years? I never really cared for the answer. It took people way too long to get over their ex and I didn't get it. I didn't get how they kept going like "I MISS THEM" but their relationship was toxic and frankly, they were more in love with the memories of that person than the person they were now. That was my view on the subject. It shouldn't take that long to get over an ex.
It's over and done.
Get over it.
Get over it
I shook my head as my train of thoughts ended and looked up, unaware of what was going on around me. "I said: get over it, Matt!" Charlie called out, pushing the mini fridge closed with his foot as he had taken the last popsicle and the drummer certainly didn't agree. "Fuck off, Charlie! That was MY popsicle!"
"You suck long and pointy things all the time, don't complain", Charlie laughed before heading out in the back of the bus. I inhaled sharply. My mind went there again. Thinking about exes. Thinking about my ex.
"Danny!" Johnny roared and the whole bus fell silent except for the lead singer who widened his eyes and tried running from the blue masked rapper who had only yelled, not moved a muscle from his seat up front. Danny stumbled over the couch, ran into Funny Man who murmured something like "Yo, don't run over ya homie, Danny!" before he reached the back and made Charlie whisper a way too loud "NO! He'll come after me too!"
I smiled at the life inside the bus. So many things to do. Johnny and Danny at each other's throat again. Charlie and Da Kurlzz joking around. Funny Man vowing his everlasting love to pizza as he nursed the final piece of their dinner together. I enjoyed days like these but there was a nagging feeling in my chest.
You miss him, don't you?
The feeling crawled up my spine and I swallowed a lump. No. I don't.
Yes, you do. You miss having him around.
I sighed and took my phone out to check Twitter and Instagram for a moment. Maybe it could erase it from my mind.
Deuce ( Deuce9Lives)
followed you
My breath caught in my throat as I read the notification again. And again. And again. And again. I still thought I was dreaming.
"What's that?" a voice came up behind me and I practically yelped and locked my phone before looking over my shoulder to see Danny raise an eyebrow. "Paranoid?"
"Kinda. What's up?"
"You were staring at your phone like you just saw the weirdest porn. What was it?" Danny asked and I made a waving gesture. "Nothing."
"Jay."
"Danny", I said in the same stern voice but he cracked a smile. "You're a fucking idiot. I'm gonna go find Charlie. He's got to play my human shield while Johnny's pissed at me."
"Why is Johnny pissed at you anyway?" I asked and Danny grinned. "You'll find out later. Promise."
"Did you replace his shampoo with green hair dye again?"
"No."
"Did you squeeze his juice again when he tried drinking it with a straw?"
"No."
"You're making me curious, Danny", I chuckled and Danny stuck out his tongue, skin going pale as Johnny suddenly got out of his seat. "Danny!"
I covered my mouth not to laugh as I could now see what happened. Danny drew a dick on Johnny's cheek when he fell asleep. "Classic", I mouthed to the singer before he fled to use Charlie as his shield once again. When he left, I unlocked my phone again and stared at the message. He added me.
He was following me again. Why? What were they saying about him? I tried digging into Deuce and what the fans were discussing lately when I stumbled upon something interesting. A thread.
They say Deuce told a friend he misses J-Dog. That's why he's following him on Twitter again.
OMG That is soooo cute!
I ship them.
I heard he wants to make peace with Danny too!
I smiled at the comments but reminded myself that these were just rumours. There was no telling if Deuce thought of me like that. I let out a sigh and put away my phone. It was getting late. I should try to relax a bit.
Later that night we found ourselves playing cards on the floor. Johnny was no longer angry with Danny when he found out the dick wasn't drawn with a permanent marker but with eyeliner. He could wash it off easily. Of course, it led to quite some jokes about Danny using eyeliner. The singer rolled his eyes at them with a scoff. It was great how he was getting bolder with us. Eight years by our side and he could just be himself. His own silly self.
Charlie bought Da Kurlzz a popsicle because the drummer got fucking upset over it. What a baby.
Around midnight the five of us were stripped to our boxers as Funny Man was winning all the strip poker rounds. When Danny was the first to lose his underwear, we decided it was time to call it a night. That was the golden rule. If Danny gets naked, it's time to go to bed.
Interpret it how you like it.
I was the last one awake when I decided to put away the cards into the cupboard and pour myself another drink. After sipping my glass, my mind wandered back to the comments. How could I still let myself be affected by him? The split had been so long ago, yet when he seemed to show the slightest of interest, I jumped at the thought of healing whatever cracked our bond. It was low. It was pathetic.
I had to go for a walk. This shit was fogging my mind with doubt and hurt again. When I opened the door outside, I heard a familiar voice before stepping outside.
"Come on, Aron. You can do this. Jay won't bite."
I stepped outside in surprise as Deuce stood in front of the door. The ex-singer seemed equally as baffled as me when I stepped outside. We stared at each other for a moment before he offered me a weak smile. "Hey."
"Hi", I said, returning the smile.
He averted his eyes, tongue running across his bottom lip as he seemed to be looking for the right words. I decided to help him a little. "I saw you followed me on Twitter."
"Yeah. I did."
"Fans say it's because you said you miss me."
He whipped his head up to look at me but when he saw my curious gaze, he nodded. "I know. I mean… I do. You see, Jay. I just… I've been such a fucking blind assho…"
I cut him off by drawing him into a hug and sunk my face into the crook of his neck. "I miss you too."
He chuckled. Soft. No sign of mockery. Just like it used to be. After all these years. All these years full of shit, he came back to me. He came back the same way he entered my life in the first place. At the right time at the right place. Maybe we lived our years in hurt for a long time but I didn't care about those lost years.
Because maybe, just maybe, if you can't get over that ex, it's because you were too blind to see that you were meant to be.

Let me hear from the silent readers out there, I won't bite despite being a Monster.
HU4LIFEBITCHES: I'm definitely comfortable about my gender but I get that those who feel different inside, don't want anyone to tell them off like "no, you've got the other body. You're not the gender you feel you are" because seriously? We get to tell what they feel like? We don't know if it's someone who's truly a different gender or just some asshole deciding to mock Transgenders but last time I checked, it's none of our fucking business. It's a fucking bathroom, not a porn video. You're there to take a leak, not touch each other. God, I'm tired. I'm happy Skillet was awesome.
danny'sdanny: if they're not understanding, they're not worth the effort! I walked up to my friends like "I'm dating a guy" and they mostly shrugged, some of them went "I KNEW IT!". I love your constant reviewing though.
KrashTheDerp: Funny how you appear after I've reviewed your story. I'll get to Johnny/Da Kurlzz sometime later. It's an interesting pairing, that's for sure.
