Matt's POV

After we were done with our love making, we had laid there then decided to get up to get some breakfast. Not that I wanted to let her out of my arms, but I was hungry.

I slid on my boxers and basketball shorts along with a shirt. And since Joella only had her clothes from the night before, she slid on her panties and grabbed one of my shirts to put on.  

"Gotta have some music on while cooking." She smirked, turning the stereo on in living room then went to the kitchen.

I was going to cook for her but she wouldn't let me, she wanted to be the one to cook so I had gave into her and let her.

Then after breakfast was over, she insisted on cleaning up. As I was sitting back watching her ass sway to the music while at the sink, I heard someone knock so I went and answered it.

"Hey man, what's up." I motioned Johnny in.

"Not a lot." He said as he stepped in, he then noticed Joella in the kitchen, but since she had her back turned he didn't recognize her. "Oh shit man, I didn't realize you had a girl over my bad."

"No you're good short shit." I chuckled, "Believe it or not, that's Joella." Thankfully, my shirt hung down her enough where you couldn't see anything but her bare legs.

"No shit?" His eyes went wide.

"Come on." I motioned towards the kitchen, "Babe, look whose here." I said as we got to the entry way.

She turned around, "Johnny!" I think she realized she had no pants on because she all of a sudden she started pulling the shirt down more, "Uh let me go get some pants on."

She quickly rushed to the bedroom while trying her hardest to not show off her behind. Which it was kinda funny to watch.

"So you and Joella back together again huh? How'd that happen? I thought with her accident and all." Johnny spoke quietly.

"Yeah." I sighed rubbing the back of my neck, keeping my voice low too "Yesterday, we ran into each other, literally. She bumped into me by accident. She's the reason I couldn't continue hanging with you guys last night after the fitting. Then after dinner and it all just fell into place."

"So does she have her memory back?"

"Yeah, it's amazing. I mean there's some things she don't remember." I then lower my voice more, "Like what happened for us to break things up, but she does remember that we were fighting the night of her accident. So don't say anything."

"I won't." He shook his head as Joella walked back in with her leggings on. "I talked to Zack earlier, everything's set for the party tomorrow night." He spoke with a normal volume.

"Party?" She questioned.

"Yeah, tomorrow night is Brian's bachelor party." I answered.

"Ah, I bet you guys will have fun then."

"Oh it will be." Johnny grinned with a nod.

"Hey, I think Michelle is having her bachelorette party tomorrow night too. Why don't you see about joining them?" I suggested to her, the girls would love to see her.

"Uh I don't think so. I mean it sounds like it could be fun but at the same time, it's her party and she should be focused on that. If I go, they might be focused on what's happened to me."

"They would be excited to see you that's for sure." I stood behind her and wrapped my arms around her shoulders and kissed her temple. "But you will be my date to the wedding right?"

"It's too late though... isn't it?"

"Of course not." Johnny spoke up before I could. "They'd totally be cool with it."

"What he said." I smirked, that's exactly what I was going to say too.

They all told us we could bring a date to the wedding and I want her as mine now that we're back together.

"But-"

"No buts, please come with me? And they won't be wanting to talk about the accident and you being absent in our lives. Everyone will be focusing on Brian and Michelle."

At least I hope that's the case anyways. But I know they are going to be asking questions eventually about it and about us.

She turns her head to look at me, "I wasn't going to bring that up this time. I was merely going to mention I'll have to find something to wear."

"Well, you have a few days to find something that I'm sure you have in that closet of yours. They're not having these parties the day before the wedding, thank God."

"Yeah." She giggled, "You see and hear people doing that and I think it's stupid to have a bachelor or bachelorette party the day before."

"Exactly." Johnny chuckled.

"So you'll come?"

"I will." She smiles.

"Awesome." I smiled and kissed her.

Later that Evening

No One's POV

Since there was a dinner for the wedding party, Matt talked Joella into going. As some of them was waiting outside the restaurant for a few more people to show up, they noticed them pull in.

"Wait, does Matt have a new girl?" Lacey questioned.

They didn't recognize Joella because of the new hair style and she had sunglasses on. Plus Johnny wasn't allowed to say anything to anyone about Matt and Joella being back together because they wanted to surprise everyone.

"Does he?" Val smiled, she had been in a conversation with the guy she was with and hadn't seen them pull in.

"Oh my gosh, he does. Finally." Michelle beamed motioning to them getting out of the vehicle.

"Are we late?" Joella asked Matt as they walked towards the group hand in hand, as everyone watched them.

Matt glanced at his watch, "Nope, not yet. And looks like Zack's not here yet neither. Same with Brian's brother."

But he spoke too soon because then he noticed Zacky and Gena walking up.

"What's up Shads." Brian smiled, "Who do we got here? Bringing a new girl, you do realized this dinner is for people who is in the wedding ceremony right?" He joked, but flinched because Michelle had jabbed him in the side with her elbow.

Since Joella hadn't taken her sunglasses off they had yet to recognize her. So that's when she decided to mess with Brian for his remark, "So what are you doing here then?"

"Uh because I'm the groom."

"Wait, you mean to tell me the man whore of the band is getting married first? What did you do, knock Michelle up so you have to marry her before her father kills you?" She joked.

Matt noticed Michelle was getting ready to go off on her so he quickly stepped over and whispered in her ear, "Don't, she's only joking with him. Just wait for it." Michelle just looks at him confused and nods.

"What the fuck?! Who do you think you are? Coming to my dinner party talking to me like that? And I don't know how you got your info but I am not a damn man whore."

"Hmm, that's funny, because according to some of your fans you are. I mean really, just get on Wattpad or Archive of our own and search up fan fictions about yourself. They portray you as a ladies man and a man whore." She was trying so hard not to bust up laughing.

"Yeah well fuck that shit. I ain't no fucking man whore, you bi-" he started to say bitch but stopped himself out of respect for Matt.

"Awe go ahead say it, I'm a bitch but at least I'm true to myself and don't deny what I am." She smirked.

Matt seen Brian's face getting red from anger so he quickly stepped in putting his hand on her back as he chuckled, "Okay babe, that's enough."

"About time you stop your girl." Brian groaned.

"Oh he can't control me. I do what I want."

"What the fuck is your problem with me?! You don't even know me." Brian took a step closer to her.

"Awe come on Brian." She laughed as she finally took off her sunglasses, "I'm just fucking with you."

Which made everyone relax and laugh once they realized who she was.

"Are you shitting me? Fuck! You really had me going talking that way." Brian laughed, "You just wait, I'm so going to get you back for that." He took that moment and hugged her.

Everyone then took turns hugging her and welcoming her back.

When everyone called down from excitement, Matt introduced Joella to David.

"Ells, this is David, Val's boyfriend." He had realized he used the nickname he used for her so he said her full name. "David this is Joella."

"It's a pleasure to meet you Ells." David smiled.

"Likewise, but call me Joella. Only Matt here calls me Ells." She pointed out, which caused them all to snicker at her remark.

"Oh my bad." David smirked.

During the dinner, the conversation Joella was expecting, came. The questions about her and her recovery and then how her and Matt got back together. At first she was hesitant to talk about the recovery part but did open up about it. She figured since they were her friends, she would tell them about it all because it was only right that they were curious.
