Always Second Best... (Adam x Reader)

Chapter 16

(Y/n)'s POV

As me and Adam finished eating, he did the dishes but I helped him by drying them and putting them away. Then as we were leaving Adam picked me up bridal style, and flew off.

"A-Adam what are you doing?!" I panicked, as I've never let someone else fly with me in their arms.

"Just shut up, and enjoy the ride babes." Adam snickered, as I hid my wings so it didn't bug Adam or annoy him.

As we flew to his house, I actually enjoyed being in his arms. But if he asks, if I enjoyed I'm not gonna say yeah. I don't need him knowing I've got a soft spot for him, that'll just destroy my ego.

As he arrived it was a little messy, but not really surprisingly as he seems like the kinda dude to not give a shit about how dirty his house is.

"Sooo this is my pad, hope you don't mind the mess. I did clean it, but must've lost motivation in the midst." Adam spoke, which I just giggled.

"It's alright, so do you have a garage or a studio?" I asked, which he knew what I meant.

"Well heaven doesn't have cars, but I do have a garage it's like my studio." He chuckled, which I smiled.

"My brother and I started our band in a garage, just like Nickelback did." I exclaimed, as Adam smiled.

"Well I saw you got rid of your guitar, why's that?" Adam asked, which I shrugged.

"I thought I wasn't gonna play it again, and just sold it." I spoke, which Adam nodded.

As he brought me to his garage, I left like I first started again. It made me feel I don't know, alive again? If that makes any sense, I smiled and looked around.

"Wow someone's famous." I spoke, as I saw pictures from his concerts and meetups.

"Yeah I know, I fucking rock." Adam spoke letting his ego take over, which I snickered.

As I look at the CDs of his music, I smiled as me and my brother never got that big... We just did it for fun, but it was always our dream to get that big. But I mean how could we? He was a full time truck driver, plus Danny and Shy only came over when Travis was home... I thought, as a frown came over my face.

"Do you want to use my spare guitar? I barely play it, so it might be out of tune." Adam spoke, which he brought my smile back.

"Y-Yeah sure." I say, as he handed it to me I took it gently. Then I smiled at him, and he smiled back.

"Um I don't want to sound rude but uhh, could you ya know... Take your mask off-... Umm do get me wrong I love your mask but uh-" I stuttered out, which made Adam chuckle.

"Yeah I can, it's okay to admit I'm hot ya know bae." Adam teased, as he took off his mask.

"Wh-What? Pfff-" I say as I giggle nervously, which I look away from his gaze.

What is happening to me, I'm never this fucking nervous.. Oh come on (y/n), pull your shit together! I thought to myself, as Adam tried to look for a song that would send a vibe.

(Y/n) - tilted
Adam - bold
Both - tilted and bold

As Adam strums up so do I, as he tells me what strings to strum for this song.

Coming out of my cage, and I've been doing just fine.
Adam sings, which I smile at him as I use my magic and snap my fingers so the drums are playing along. Which Adam smiles, and I smirk.

Gotta, gotta be down because I want it all!!
I sing which Adam smiles, as I don't know he seems to like having duets with me or?...

It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this?
We sung to together, as in we're in harmony.

It was only a kiss,
It was only a kiss...
We sing as we smile at each other.

Now I'm falling asleep, and she's calling a cab.
He smiles, which I blush.

While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag.
He strums the same note as me, as he's the lead guitarist and I'm the second one.

Now they're going to bed,
And my stomach is sick..
I smile, and so does Adam.

And it's all in my head, but she's touching his chest now!
He takes off her dress now, let me go!!
We sing as the melody of the guitars and drums, mix in like pepsi an vodka.

And I just can't look, it's killing me! They're taking control!!
We sing as my cheeks burn like fire, from blushing.

Jealousy, turning saints into the sea! Swimming through sick lullabies, choking on your alibis.
I sing, which Adam smiled a soft and calming one.

But it's just the price I pay, destiny is calling me! Open up my eager eyes, 'cause I'm Mr. Brightside!
We sing , as the music and melody drown out anything and everything.

I'm coming out of my cage, and I've been doing just fine!
Gotta, gotta be down because I want it all!
We sing, as I felt someone was knocking on the door I push that feeling down.

It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss,
It was only a kiss...
We smile, as the music was so hypnotic.

Now I'm falling asleep, and he's calling a cab.
While she's having a smoke,
And he's taking a drag.
Now their going to bed,
and my stomach is sick.
We sing proudly, as I feel nervous again.

And it's all in my head, but she's touching his chest now.
He takes off her dress now, let me go!!
Adam and I lock eyes, as I blush.

'Cause I just can't look, it's killing me!! They're taking control!!
I look away, as Adam chuckles.

Jealously, turning saints into the sea. Swimming through sick lullabies, choking on your alibis.
I sing as I strum my guitar, as Adam smiles.

But it's just the price I pay, destiny is calling me! Open up my eyes, 'cause I'm Mr. Brightside!!
Adam winks at me, as a soft smile forms on my face.

I never.
I never!
I never!!
I never!!!
As we both sing, as we end the song.

Adam looks at me in a funny way, which I cocked my head to the side in confusion. Then he gently puts his hand on my cheek, which I looked at him. As Adam snapped his fingers, as our guitars on placed back where they were.

I looked at him and he looked at me, as he started to come closer slowly the space between our faces was slowly nothing. Then we kissed, as I closed my eyes and wrap my arms around Adam's neck he wrapped his arms around my waist.
