Chapter 1

AJ walked through the front door of his house and dropped his bags on the couch. It had been a rough day at rehearsal for his upcoming Johnny No Name Tour and he was just looking forward to a quiet relaxing night at home.

"Hey Manda you here?" He asked as he headed upstairs to grab a shower. "Babe is that you?" AJ turned towards the bedroom where he had heard a slight noise and opened the door to find Manda practically mauling Nick on the bed. "What the fuck do you think you're doing?" He yelled angrily.

"What the hell does it look like I'm doing?" She said as she was straddling Nick.

Nick looked up from his position smiling slightly at Aj rubbing it in his face with an eyebrow lift.

Aj blinked and positioned his mouth to yell again but nothing came out. He stormed down the hall mumbling stuff to himself and headed to the bathroom. He slammed the door behind him making the pictures on the wall shake in rampage

"Stupid bastard. Doesn't even have the balls to break up with me," Manda talked to Nick still looking down the hallway in rage.

Aj turned on the water coldly and turned to look at himself in the mirror, "Fuck the world" he mumbled to himself. "Life sucks like a fucker sometimes. Son of a bitch," he yelled at himself in a ready-to-fucking-explode manner "Damn slut" he grubbled A burst of energy came over him. With rage flowing through him he drove his fist through the mirror cutting his fingers and the back of his hand in random place. Blood splattered glass spilled all over the sink and shattered onto the floor making loud clanging noises heard throughout the house. Aj looked at his hand bleeding furiously and shrugged the pain off. He pulled closed the lid to the toilet and sat down putting his hands on his head and placing his head between his knees. "God damnit, mother fucking bitch. I'm going to kill that fucking slut. Who the fuck does she think she's fucking dealing with?"

Manda hopped off of Nick and walked over to the bathroom door, "What the hell are you doing in there?"

His blood stained his hair splotting it all over in dark red. He motioned towards the door almost opening it but drew himself away. "WHY THE FUCK DO YOU CARE? YOU DON'T SEEM TO GET A FUCK ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE, EXCEPT GETTING SOME FROM EVERY FUCKING GUY WHO COMES IN THE FUCKING HOUSE!" he screamed at the top of his lungs. "I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS FUCKING SHIT! ITS OVER YOU DUMB BITCH!" he flung open the door and shoved her out of the way making his way towards the room where Nick was lying on the bed."AND AS FOR YOU, YOU STUPID BASTARD!" he walked to Nick in a rage and picked him up by the shirt getting in his face, "WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE HUH? I BET THIS WAS YOUR IDEA! YOU DIRTY FUCKING BASTARD! GET THE FUCK OUTTA MY HOUSE AND THE FUCK OFF MY BED!" he threw Nick down and stormed out of the room.

"Geeze Aj chill dude!" Nick yelled back at him straightening his shirt. Nick wrinkled his forhead in an angry fashion and got off the bed pulling his pants up. He walked to Manda as AJ slammed the door to the bathroom closed, leaving the two in an uncomfortable silence. "Well, he can kiss my goddamn ass. I'll do what I want." Nick glanced down at his blood splattered shirt from Aj's bleeding hand.

"Yeah, it's your life, why the fuck should he run it?" Nick looked at her in a cocky manner.

Aj pulled at his own hair turning on the shower water and let it pour onto his hand that stung like wild fire because of the recent cuts. He ripped his shirt over his head and stripped himself down to nudity, stepping into the burning hot shower. He looked at his bleeding hand and began to sob in an odd fashion. He caught his breath and turned toward the faucet letting the water rinse the blood out of his hair which dripped down his body in streaks of red.

Manda pounded her fist on the door. "You know what AJ? I don't know why I stayed with you anyways. Wasted two and a half goddamn years of my life with your punk ass. You never paid any damn attention to me. That's why I cheated on you. And you know what? This isn't the first time either!"

"Dumb asshole ruined my fucking shirt," Nick said looking at it again whipping at the blood as if it was something that would just fall off, trying to get off the subject.

"Well, it's not like you don't have the money to buy a new one" she said in an annoyed tone of voice.

Aj listened to her yell and beat on the door in a careless manner. "YEAH YOU KNOW WHAT?!" he poked his head out of the curtain, "IF I REALLY GAVE A FUCK I WOULD'VE KICKED YOURS AND NICK'S FUCKING ASS! BUT SINCE I'M A NICE GUY I'LL LEAVE YOU TWO TO FUCK... OH AND NICK I HOPE I STAINED A LOT MORE THAN YOUR FUCKING SHIRT!"

"Well, whatever. I'm leaving.," Manda moaned in a grumpy manner as if she was a two year old who hadn't gotten her way.

The water from his hair dripped on the floor like a waterfall. Faded streaks of blood could still be seen against the white tiled floor. "Son of a bitch" he pulled his head back into the shower.

"Damn girl, you ok?" Nick said putting his hand on Manda's shoulder.

"I know you're just gonna come crawling back to me like the damn pussy-whipped little bitch that you are," she screamed crossing her arms in a bitchy manner.

Aj rolled his eyes and pretended not to hear her last comment and continued with his shower. "NoI'm not Bastard Makes this out to be all my fucking fault."

Nick raised and eyebrow and opened his mouth just a crack giving her a look that she's seen more then once. "Yeah, stupid bastard\It's not all your fault. It's his too! How could he treat you bad So pretty and sweet," Nick touched her cheek lightly with the back of his hand nibbling at her ear trying to calm her down.

Manda smiled. "Can we just leave? I know if I stay I'm just gonna piss him off more."

Nick nodded, "Yeah thats what I meant. Let's just go to the mall or something." He led her down the stairs and to the car, driving off making loud screeching noises that Aj heard as he turned off the water to his shower.

The blood stained his hands in many different places but the flow calmed and Aj was now able to touch things without leaving a mark.He brushed his hair and got dressed walking to the kitchen to make a snack still mumbling to himself.He sat at the kitchen table listening to the noises the house makes. The screams of him and Manda echo in his head. He scratched at his head and closed his eyes imagining looking at himself in his own rage.
