Love drove me crazy // James Hetfield

22. love song

James's Pov

I had dropped Y/n off at her house with some heated and intense kisses as I drove back to my house and went inside. I ended up getting my kids to bed and then seeing Y/n's notebook on my bathroom counter. I opened it and began to read it.

In the car, in the car, in the backseat, I'm your baby
We go fast, we go so fast, we don't move
I believe in a place you take me
Make you real proud of your baby
In your car, I'm a star and I'm burnin' through you
In your car, I'm a star and I'm burnin' through you

Oh, be my once in a lifetime
Lying on your chest, in my party dress
I'm a fucking mess but I
Oh, thanks for the high life
Baby, it's the best, that's a test
And yes, now I'm here with you and I
Would like to think that you would stick around
You know that I'd just die to make you proud
The taste, the touch, the way we love
It all comes down to make the sound of our love song

I smiled at her writing. Her writing was unique and I think she was writing about 'us' but she wanted to secretly write it. I began to edit a few parts and add on to the song while I moved to my bed and laid down.

Dream a dream, here's a scene
Touch me anywhere 'cause I'm your baby
Grab my waist, don't waste any part
I believe that you see me for who I am
So spill my clothes on the floor of your new car
Is it safe, is it safe to just be who we are?
Is it safe, is it safe to just be who we are?

This is new for me because I don't usually write from her point of view, Y/n's, or a woman's in general, so I tried to make it seem as good as possible.

I woke up in the morning and yawned, reaching over to grab my notebook from my night stand where it usually is but I didn't feel it. Where did I leave it? I sighed and got up, grabbing my phone and dialing James.

"Hello?"

"James, hi, quick question, did I leave my notebook over at your house? I have a feeling I did."

"Yeah, you did."

I smiled, "Thanks, I'll come get it."

"Okay. Bye, love you so much."

"Bye, love you sooo much, too."

I hung up the call and then began to get ready for the day before leaving to his house.

•••

I knocked on the door and then it swung open, being greeted by the tall metalhead with his stupid grin I loved so much.

"Hey, baby," he said and kissed me.

"Heyyy, okay, where's my notebook?" I ask.

He handed it to me mid-kiss and held my face.

"Thank youuu-"

"I'm making breakfast for my kids, do you wanna join? We can hit the studio afterwards?"

I sigh and nod, "Of course, you do too much for me."

He smiled and kissed me again and let me inside as he closed the door behind me. I opened my notebook and saw some writing I recognized in blue ink. James.

"You wrote in my notebook?" I asked and laughed.

"You like it?" He asked and kissed me again but with more passion.

I nod, "I love it," I say and felt him go to my neck, "James, what about your kids?"

"They're not even awake, baby."

I smiled and pulled him away from my neck and held his face.

"Rockstar, get me breakfast like you offered and get your kids."

He sighed and kissed me again with his deep laugh and then began to do as I said. I smiled and saw him serve me some eggs and bacon before jogging up the stairs to his kids. I noticed a guitar case, sitting in his living room as a small velvet box. I furrowed my brows and was about to do something but then James came back down with his kids. His son was over his shoulder and his daughter was in his arms while she was giggling and kicking her feet. I smiled and took a bite of bacon as James set them down and got them breakfast.

"Daddy! Can I sit by Y/n?" Cali asked.

James laughed, "Yes, sweetie, you can."

"Can I too, daddy?" Castor asked.

"Yes, buddy."

I laughed as James smiled at me and set their breakfast on either side of me as they sat beside me.

"James?"

"Yeah, baby?"

I pointed to the guitar case, "What's up with the guitar?"

He looked over and quickly went over, grabbing the box and hidding it.

"This is a gift I actually got for you. I forgot to hide it but, yeah, it's for you."

"Really?? Why? Something special?"

He shrugged, "Maybe. But this is one early gift."

I smiled, "Thank you."

•••9:52 PM

I was playing the floor is lava with James's kids as he sat on the couch with a movie on.

"All right! Now you gotta follow me back to the couch, it's the safe spot," I say as Castor and Cali followed me on pillows, "When we get to the couch, we gotta get dad!" I say as we reached the couch and the kids jumped on James.

I laughed as James and the kids did too.

"Okay! Okay, it's time for bed now," James says.

"Daddyyyy, Cmon!" Cali complains.

"Listen to your dad, it's time for bed so you can get some really good sleep for when we go ice skating tomorrow!"

"Yay!!" They both said and raced upstairs.

James looked at me and smiled, "Ice skating? really?"

I smiled and nod, "Yeah! It'll be fun."

He smiled and kissed me while standing up.

"Let me go tuck the kids in and then we can go get in the hot tub."

I smiled and kissed him again before he got up and walked upstairs. I then went upstairs and changed into a black bikini that had skulls on the top and then strings with silver beads on the bottoms. I walked downstairs and outside in the back to the hot tub. When I slowly got in, I groaned from the pleasure as I saw James come out. He dropped his towel on the chair as his black swim trunks looked so hot on him. He got in with me and sat beside me while we immediately started to make out. I giggled from his hand touching my thigh which tickled a little.

"I love you," I say to James.

He smiled, "I love you too."

That's when we parted from the kiss and looked at each other.

"You're so beautiful," he told me and caressed my cheek.

I rolled my eyes and smirked, "Shut up."
