Last night, I had difficulty sleeping. With being on tour, you have strict sleeping times,play the gig, get into the tour bus, go to sleep, get up, set up, practice, play the gig. It's an endless tiresome cycle. We are having a rest in London, which is good, 3 days, at home. I had difficulty sleeping because I was so excited, also because every time I closed my eyes, I saw flames. This was the city where I grew up, where my father is buried, where my mum is buried.
We are having lunch at Nandos, yeah, healthy right? After, we're heading down the river to Southbank, where the London eye is. It's Saturday so it will be busy as hell. That's not what interests me though. I used to go to these meets, mainly "emo" kinda people go but it revolves around MCR, but there obviously would be other bands that people are into. Tyler, the band and Black Veil Brides are going sight seeing to like Big Ben and the London Eye, they are probably taking a boat tour or something.
Andy is coming with me, to see the meet. I haven't been in at least 3 years, there's going to be new people obviously, but hopefully, there will be some people who remember me. Now, I know you're thinking, what kinda idiot stops seeing such awesome people into such epic bands? Well it's because, when my dad died, I couldn't face to go again, I didn't feel like seeing my friends. I deleted Facebook and everyone kinda just disappeared from my life.
Not much has happened between me and Andy. He doesn't speak to me much, and I am sort of thankful and sort of not. I want to talk to him, about how I feel, but I don't know if I love him, or at least like him in the same way that he likes me. Yes, he is cute, and sweet, and those eyes could make any girl swoon and his perfectly carved lips. Maybe, I do, just a tad.
We say our goodbyes and split off into our sight seeing groups. Me and Andy walk down the river. It's quite far away from Nandos but I like walking it, there is a Starbucks with blue writing, i used to wonder if the CEO knew about it.
"You know, you might get attacked, I'm sure there is gonna be some fans of you," I said when we were half way.
He kind of laughed a bit but didn't say much else. I looked down to his hand, it was at his side so, maybe, he'd be happier if I held it. I slipped my hand into his and smiled up at him. A small grin appeared on his face.
We continued to walk. There was a group of 15-17 year olds, all in their "hipster" clothes, the ones that think they are so unique but are just like most other people on the street. One of the shouted gay fags and I stopped abruptly.
"Just ignore them Scarlett, they're dumb fucks," Andy whispered.
"No, I can't just ignore them!" I marched over to them, still holding Andy's hand. "Listen here slags and imbeciles. First, it takes two guys to be gay, and I'm, quite clearly a girl, just because I don't dress like miss slutty here, doesn't mean I'm not a girl," I give a death glare to a girl with blondie-brown hair that's straight like they seem to always have, with way too much spray tan and caked on makeup. It was a nice day and she obviously jumped to the opportunity to wear something exposing because she's wearing a crop top that showed most of her breasts at the top and all her stomach at the bottom, she then had super tight, short shorts, half her ass was showing, she was then wearing a pair of navy blue vans.
"Shit it's a girl," one of them said half laughing.
"Yes, IT is a girl, actually, she's my girlfriend, and she's obviously doing a lot better in life than you dickheads because right now she's on tour with her band, and I'm on tour with mine too, so please, continue your sad lives, because mother fuckers like you deserve it," Andy turned with his hand on my back and we continued walking again. Girlfriend? When did that happen? "Your welcome for helping you out there," he muttered.
"Thanks... why did you say I was your girlfriend?" I asked.
He just shrugged.
"Do you want me to be?"
Once again he shrugged.
I stopped abruptly and it made him stop. "Why don't you talk to me? Andy, you've helped me through so much, even when I didn't know you personally."
"Because... because every time I talk to you, I get this urge to kiss you and, even just being with you I have to fight this want to hold you."
"Then kiss me... and hold me," I didn't know where this confidence was coming from, where these words we're coming from, but I'm glad I was saying them.
He looked around and looked back at me, raising an eyebrow. "Here?" He asked.
I looked around and bit my lip, Southbank was packed with tourists and I didn't feel like having my first kiss with Andy here.
"Maybe later?" I asked.
"I can wait, always," he smiled and we continued walking hand in hand.
As we got closer, I could see the meet and my heart was beating fast.
"HOLY MOTHERFUCKING SHIT! IT'S FUCKING SCARLET! ALEX LOOK!" I heard someone shout. I look around to see who it was and I smiled as Sophie and Alex came running towards me. Last time I saw them I was so much younger. I'm surprised they recognized me. They both pulled me into a hug and I felt like crying.
Some more people I recognized came over but lot's I didn't and I'm pretty sure I have never seen a few of them ever in my life. I heard someone say something but I don't know what, then lot's of the new kids came over and was saying hi to Andy, as expected.
"Guys, come on, don't kill the poor guy!" Sophie shouted over the giggling and chatting humans. Andy was obviously struggling to talk to them. I reached my hand out to him and he took it. I pulled him out of the crowd smiling.
"You OK?" I asked.
"Perfect," he smiled with me and kissed my forehead.
I spent my time meeting up with my old friends and meeting new ones. I learnt that a bunch of people were seeing Black Veil Brides in two nights time.
Someone had gone into the Paper-chase inside the station and bought a bunch of sharpies. She gave them to Andy and he signed a fuckload of bags, phone cases, purses, shirts, arms and even boobs. Guy, he liked to bring his acoustic guitar a lot so he did and Andy signed it. A few people even asked me to sign some things.
A few more signings and photos later it was dark and the city lights were on. The trees string with blue lights, the London Eye multi-coloured changing lights. Boats lighting up the river. Bridges strung with lights, it was beautiful.
We were standing about 10m away from the London eye, me and Andy, and there was hardly a line. The sky was surprisingly clear and the moon and stars were visible. Party goers and the dinner seeking tourists still walked by the river.
I shivered a bit and felt him hug me. I slipped my arms inside his hoodie and hugged him back. It wasn't as much of a romantic gesture because I had done it many times today with other guys and a few girls, its kinda just what you do when you're cold, no one thinks of it differently, Even when you start making out. I mean Luke went around giving everyone love bites.
Most people had gone and I upped my new Facebook friends by adjust 150, because even they there weren't as many I knew the friends of friends of some of my friends.
"Have fun today?" I asked.
"Yeah, I don't think I've signed that many autographs before!" He smiled and his sweet blue eyes looked bluer with the blue lights from the trees.
He leaned down hesitantly and I giggled and tip toed up and kissed him softly. My hands moved from his hoodie to his cheek. He had both of his hands on my waist, he leaned down more so I didn't have to to toe but also to deepen the kiss.
He ran his tongue along my lip softly and my lips parted involuntary, he took his chance and skipped his tongue in mine.
You stood fucking whore starting playing and vibrating in my pocket, I blushed a bit pulling away and answering.
"Hey, sorry to interrupt your make out session but as your guardian you must get permission from me," Tyler said immediately making me laugh.
"Shut up! Where are you?"
"Here!" I heard down the phone and behind me as someone squeezed the tickley part of my waist. I yelped and dropped to the floor.
"Asshole!" I shouted.
He just laughed and helped me up. "Come on Love birds, we've booked a pod on the Eye thing."
"It's the London Eye." I glared at Tyler and took Andy's hand.
So, were we a thing now? I mean he never actually asked me to be his girlfriend, so, I dunno.
We joined the short line and got into the capsule. As we were a large group there wasn't anyone else in here. We had the stage crew, the two bands, managers and bus drivers.
Andy'sP.O.V
"You guys boyfriend and girlfriend yet? Cause that was a full blown make out." Ashley said sticking his nose in my business.
"No but I will at the top, I gave Sophie some cash cause she knows what Scarlet likes and she came back with 2 white wristbands. I have a whole pencil case of sharpies now, and so I made these." I showed them to Ashley, I had drawn Andy+Scarlet and a bunch of guitars and lightning bolts and things. On the inside of one, her one, I wrote, Dear Star, I love you. Be mine? Love Lightning Thunderstien. A.K.A Andy xx
"Cute, bet she'll like them."
I nodded and went over to her, she was looking over the river and she looked... sad?
"Hey, you ok?" I wrapped my arms around her waist softly.
"Yeah, I just missed home so much, I don't want to leave," she sighed resting her head back into my chest and closing her pretty little eyes.
"I understand, I umm, I have a gift, for you," I took out the wristband from my pocket and gave it to her.
She took it smiling and saying thanks. I started to panic that she wouldn't see the inside but she looked up and said yes. Randomly, cheesy as fuck, fireworks went off near a bridge with quite a lot of people.
"What the-"
"Guy Fork's night, he tried to blow up the parliament building so every 5th of November, we have fireworks to celebrate his failure. Remember remember the 5th of November," Scarlet said as if she knew what I needed, well wanted to know.
I went on to Facebook and updated my relationship after status as in a relationship with Scarlet.
I also checked my Facebook page, all three BVB members have one. There was a tagged picture of me and scarlet kissing in front of the London Eye. It was posted by a girl called Talitha, she had had a big camera so the picture was really good quality. I saved it as my lock screen and a picture of Scarlet looking out the side of the London Eye as my background.
She's all mine.
***
We had a river side hotel but we still had to get the bus. The hotel was expensive but we all chipped in. When we arrived I had to literally beg Tyler to let Scarlet to stay in my room. I had to persuade him that we wouldn't do naughties.
Scarlet said that tomorrow she is meeting up with her old school friends at a place called Westfield which I'm hoping has a hot topic or something because I need some new clothes.
Scarlet's P.O.V
Ok, so, first night with Andy. We'll be sharing a bed, alone. Am I scared? No. Am I nervous? Yeah. It's not like he'll do anything bad its just, what if I kick him while I'm sleeping or something?
I got some things from the room I was originally staying in which was with a few of the stage crew girls. They were all friends with each other so I was glad to be with Andy.
"Andy! Hurry up in the shower!" I shouted to the bathroom door in our hotel room. A bit after the shower stopped and out came a sexy wet black haired boy with blue eyes and a towel around his waist.
I must have been staring cause he grinned. "Like what you see?" He asked.
"Yes, no, maybe?" I blushed like the fire extinguisher he gave Chase a concussion with.
He laughed and I rolled my eyes going into the shower. I locked the door and stripped. These were my favourite kind of showers, a room, where you could lay down completely. Like, it was an actual room. If you get what I mean, like the ones in Japan. I sat on the floor and let the water trickle down my body, I washed with soap and piled my hair with free conditioner. The room outside the shower has the sink and stuff. I heard Andy's bare feet padding around. In front of the fuzzy kinda door I saw the shape of him brushing his teeth, I instantly smiled ti myself. I poked my head out, trying my best to cover myself with the door, although the outline was still visible through the door which is so annoying. God, he better not be a perv!
"Andy, pass the towel and don't look!" He passed me a towel but I could still tell he was looking through the mirror. He didn't see anything though because I went back inside the shower-room to wrap the towel around myself then came out and hugged him from behind.
"Ewww! Dude you're soaking wet!"
I tried not to laugh so made a kinda scoffing noise.
"You dirty little girl!" He said surprised, but laughing too. "Let me finish brushing my teeth."
I let him and brushed mine too. As he started first, he finished first and went into the bedroom. Which means I had to go get my pajamas from out there.
Once I finished I went out to get my pajamas and as I was about to go back inside Andy said, "You can get changed in here, I don't mind!"
"Ha, cute. No." I go back into the washroom and changed then came back out and sat on the bed next to him.
"Movie?"
"Yeah!" I smiled.
"Which movie?" He asked.
Yay, I get to choose! "Super 8! It's so freakin awesome! The kid in it looks like my dad when he was younger."
He got out his laptop and we put it on. He then pulled the covers over us and I snuggled into him. He is so warm I could die! I started drifting off at the part where they were in the truck going back into the area they had been evacuated from.
*****
My phone started calling which woke me up. Andy had his arms around me and his head on my chest. He looked so cute small. I moved my arm to get my phone and answered it holding it to my ear, with the other hand i stroked his back softly. He nuzzled his cheek, it made me smile.
"Hello?" I said trying not to be too loud to wake Andy.
"Hey you bish!" It was Jason!
"Jason! Are we still on for today? I'm gonna see you right?"
"Jason! Are we still on for today? I'm gonna see you right?"
"Yeah hun, don't worry, is your hunky boyfriend coming?" He asked which made me smile.
"Yeah, he's coming, but right now he's asleep," still trying to be quite.
"No shit, he was awake when you were asleep!"
"Huh?" I asked confused.
"Hun, he posted a picture of you sleeping on insta, twitter, his facebook page, you name it babe!" The asshole, damn you Andy!
"Anyways, it's 7am, see you, Chance and Kandee at 11am?"
"Yeah, at Westfield, also I'm bringing some one else if you don't mind!" I could hear that he was excited.
"Ok, bye Jace, love you gayboy." I hung up and looked down at Andy, his precious blue eyes were looking up at me.
"Hi," I whispered smiling.
"Hi," he whispered back. "Who was that?"
"That, was Jason, my gay bestfriend, you're gonna meet him today, for the second time."
"Second? Oh! Right, when I first met you, was he the tall tanned one?" Andy remembered.
"Yeah."
"Well thank god he's gay, that would have been some real competition," he muttered.
"Baby, everyone's a competition to you," I kissed his head.
"Love you," Andy said sleepily.
"Love you too," I smiled and got up. I had already chosen the things I was wearing when I grabbed them so I went into the bathroom and put on an Asking Alexandria baggy white tank top. Ripped-skinny jeans and a silver studded belt with a FAKE wolf tail, I could never EVER have a real one and I made sure that it was fake. I stole a hoodie from Andy which was pretty big on me and the sleeves were too long, but it was warm and smelled of him.
Then I had a thought. What if he slips away from me like everyone else I love. The thought disarms me and my tears well up in my eyes. I'll get too attatched and something bad will happen and I'll loose him. Maybe, I can love him, but not be too attatched? I don't know. I stared at myself in the mirror.
A knock at the bathroom door made me yelp. I said a come in and Andy came in with his usual cute attire. He smiled at me and started brushing his teeth as did I. I had left my eyeliner in my room and my mascare was in my jean pocket from yesterday. I borrowed Andy's (yep, borrowing my boyfriend's eyeliner, jealous?)
I went out while he did whatever and put on some socks and shoes. It was still only 7:30ish but you know, we had to have breakfast and find our way to westfield. For you who don't know, Westfield is a giant shopping centre or mall or central commercial, whatever you wanna call it.
We held hands and went to find something to eat. We settled for a small cafe and had muffins and criossants and tea, well Andy had coffee, but as I'm not so keen on the stuff, I had some cozy, arm British tea.
One thing I've noticed is that a few words I say sound a bit American but my English accent is till strong.
We jump onto a train to Stratford, where Westfield is, at about 10am after having a stroll around.
I call Jason as we get off and go up the steps to Westfield. "Hey Jace, where are you guys?" I asked when he picked up after about five rings.
"I'm in Accesorize."
"Umm, why?" I asked trying not to laugh.
"Getting some scarfs," he replied with a flat voice. Oh. Um.
"Right, well, we'll meet you there," I hung up and took Andy's hand and went to accesorize. I saw Jason, indeed buying 4 scarfs. Although, I couldn't see Chase and Kandee around.
"JASON!" I smiled and jumped on his back attacking him with hugs. He laughed and went outside after he paid, carrying me. "Where's Kandee and Chase?"
"Scar, they moved to Australia, I thought you knew that?"
"No, no, I didn't well, minus 2 friends cause I don't know if I have contact with them," I mumbled a bit, that was sad. I might never EVER see them again.
"Jason! Jesus christ! I've been loo- who's that?" A guy approached us and stopped when he saw me on Jason's back.
"Meh bish," he replied. I giggled and jumped off to hold Andy's hand who was awkwardly standing there.
"Well, this is my boyfriend, Isaac," Jason smiled, putting an arm around Isaac's waist and kissing his cheek.
"Is it a fetish that your boyfriends' name starts with I?"
"Maybe," Jason said looking from side to sound which made us all laugh.
We spent the afternoon talking and catching up and my heart was drooping closer and closer to the time we all had to dispearse. Jason said they were going to the gig with Izzy tomorrow so, I said I'll try and find them.
As we left, it started to fucking rain.
"Shit! Hairspray! Eyeliner! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" Andy started panicking overing his hair.
"You're such a girl Andy," I laughed and tip toed to kiss his soft cheek.
He pulled me close wrapping one side of his hoodie around me as we walked.
"I love you, Scarlet."
"Love you two, lightning thunderstein."
