Never Give In
I decided against putting this on Quizilla and decided that Fan Fiction was best!
Chapter One
It was finally the night of the Black Veil Brides concert! Well not really since I had just woken up and the concert was at ten but at least the concert was today. I still needed to go out and buy more eyeliner so I can dress up like Andy Six so I decided that a visit to town was in order.
I threw myself out of my bed and stumbled over to my en suite. It was always the same every morning. I would stumble around because I wasn't fully awake and about an hour into my day my walking would begin to return to normal. I stripped from my sweat pants and T-shirt and stood in the shower. When the water hit me I was shocked by how cold it was but it gradually began to warm up and finally it became bearable. When I stepped out my hair was soaked and I was shivering slightly. I wrapped a towel around my pale body and plugged my hair dryer in. The gust of warm air instantly began to warm my body up. My hair always took a while to dry since it was down to my waist but finally it was done.
I pulled on a pair of jeans and an Eyes Set To Kill T-shirt. I was always into skinny jeans and a T-shirt but I always had to wear my leather jacket. When I was finally dressed I went over to my dresser and pulled out my eye liner pencil. I created a fine line and then I was done. To say the least my skin was flawless so I never needed much make up which to me was a good thing as I didn't have to waste so much time of my life to make myself look good.
With that I ran out of the flat and down the stairs and jumped into my car. The car roared to life and I pulled away from my pathetic excuse of a home. The only plus to living there was the fact that it was very close to town.
I pulled into the car park and parked as close to the door as I could. I was still feeling tired so I decided that coffee was the best thing for me at the minute. Luckily there was a small coffee shop just round the corner so I payed it a little visit.
When I walked in I got my usual greet from the cashier. She used to be my babysitter when I was five so I felt obliged to say hello back. She quickly got me a cup of coffee and one of those free chocolates and I sat down. I took a sip and then went off in my own little world. It was nice to be on my own. Sometimes I think people take it for granted. I mainly thought about the concert that I was going to be going to on my own due to the fact that I don't really like talking to many people. I had been so deep in thought that I hadn't noticed some one behind me.
"Can I get past?" He asked. My chair was sticking out very far and there was no way anybody would be able to get through the gap between my chair and the table behind me. I stuttered an apology and moved forward to him. I wanted to know who I was obstructing so I turned to see his face. He was wearing a hoodie with the hood up hiding some of his face. He was wearing sunglasses and was obviously trying not to make eye contact with me. It wouldn't matter anyway considering the fact that I couldn't even see his eyes. He shuffled through the gap and that's when I knew who it was. I gasped out and saw his shoulders slump as he realised that I knew who he was.
"You're Andy Six" I gasped. He turned around and sat in the chair opposite me.
"Yes but please don't broadcast it" He pleaded. I gave a small nod and he sighed in relief. It must be hard to go everywhere and be noticed every time you leave your house. An uncomfortable silence fell over us and soon I was racking my brains just trying to think of something to say.
"So are you enjoying your coffee?" I asked. I rolled my eyes to myself and put my head in my hands. It could only be me that would be so stupid as to ask a question like that. When I looked up he was smiling at me. His mouth opened and a small chuckle escaped him.
"It's very nice thank you" Andy said politely and then went back to grinning at me.
"I've just started a conversation with you about coffee, you must think I'm a complete loser" I groaned but Andy just shook his head.
"It's small talk. I like it" Andy said honestly. He was nodding thoughtfully and I opened my mouth and ruined it.
"Is small talk you're nickname for me?" I asked with a small bubble of laughter. I gasped out in horror when I realised what I had just said. I expected Andy to be disgusted in me but surprisingly he wasn't.
"Your nickname can be whatever you choose" Andy said. I was waiting for another laugh from him but when I looked up he seemed to be completely serious.
"How about my real name?" I asked with what I knew was a hopeful look in my eyes.
"Of course" Andy said. He was leaning back into his chair and I could tell he was beginning to relax around me.
"It's Skye Grace" I answered. Andy gave me another nod as the thought carefully about my name.
"That's a beautiful name, very unique and from what I assume you're quite a unique person" Andy said.
"You could say that" I chuckled. I had always been unique however everyone back when I was at school just thought I was weird. I was hated ever since I was nine years old and even to this day people laugh at me and throw things at me. I haven't had a friend since I was six and to be honest I'm glad. I enjoy being on my own but sometimes I wish that I had at least one person to talk to about my life. I was so deep in thought that I hadn't realised that I was staring at the floor and I was back in my own world. Andy was looking at me with a worried look in his eyes.
"Are you ok?" Andy asked. I laughed slightly and looked into his eyes.
"Yeah I zone out all the time when I'm thinking" I explained. Andy nodded in understanding. There was another awkward silence as I sat and tried to think of something else to say to him but luckily he broke it this time.
"Are you going to the Black Veil Brides concert tonight?" He asked.
"Yeah I'm going to do my make up like you" I said but instantly regretted it. He must think I'm a complete idiot for wanting to dress up as him. As if I could pull it off but when I looked up he didn't even seem bothered. I was convinced that nothing bothered him.
"You'll look good. Are you going to try and meet us?" He asked. I couldn't even explain how much I wanted to meet him and the rest of the band.
"Of course I will" I said. To get a photo with Jake Pitts, Andy Six, Jinxx, Ashley Purdy and CC would be the best thing in the world.
"I'm surprised that you haven't asked me for a photo yet" He said as though he had just read my mind. I have him a hopeful look and he laughed. He gave me a small nod so I jumped out of my chair and over to the one next to him. He pressed the side of his head against mine and put his arm around me. I turned my phone round and pressed the button. He pulled away from me and I returned to my seat and I could feel myself getting red. I didn't want him to see me red so I covered my face with my mug as I sipped my coffee which had cooled down a lot. It didn't take long for it to be all gone.
"Thanks for the picture" I said. Andy nodded at me and then looked at his watch.
"I've got to go" He said. I looked up at him and stood up.
"Goodbye" I said. He stook his hand out and I shook it.
"I hope I see you tonight" He said. When I looked into his eyes I saw all seriousness.
"Keep the sunglasses off. You're eyes are nice and you should show them off" I said. He laughed then nodded and with that he was gone. I thumped down in my chair again and sighed. I couldn't believe that I had just had coffee with Andy Six. It was possibly the best morning of my life and by far the most uncomfortable. I was surprised my heart hadn't leapt out of my chest. I pulled my phone out of my pocket and took a look at the photo. The first thing I noticed was my jet black hair with electric blue highlights sticking out all over the place. It was tickling Andy's nose. Andy! He looked amazingly hot. I was glad that he didn't have those sunglasses on. They hid his perfectly blue eyes. His hair fell just longer than his shoulder and was sticking out all over the place like mine. He was just so amazing in every way possible that it was so hard to describe. He was slender of course but underneath that plain black tee he looked strong.
I found myself beginning to miss his presence. He was one amazingly funny man. I wish I'd asked for his number and that was when I realised that I was just another fan to him. Why would I be any different? I was actually upset by this. It annoyed me that I had ever even thought that he could have considered me more than a friend. I brushed my hair away from my eyes and left the coffee shop. I just want to get my make up and go home now so I went to the chemist and got my usual eye liner. I was relieved when I was making my way back to my car. My feet were beginning to hurt and I just surprisingly wanted my pathetic flat back. I opened the back seat of the car door and threw my bag into it. I hadn't noticed how angry I was until I slammed the car door shut.
"Temper, temper" Someone whispered in my ear. I gasped out and turned quickly whilst I jammed myself in between the stranger and my car only it wasn't a stranger. It was Andy.
"Oh it's just you" I said. Andy gave me another smile and I found my heart racing again. Why did he have to be so amazing? He opened my car door for me and I slid inside but I made sure not to break eye contact with him.
"Can I have a ride?" He asked me. I was stunned to say the least.
"How did you get here?" I asked him.
"Jake but he can't make it back here" Andy explained. I nodded slightly at him. As he was getting into the car I took a deep breath to compose myself and then I turned back to the normal Skye Grace. When Andy got in the car he gave me another warm smile which sent all of my composure out of the window. I pulled out of the car park and onto the street.
"Where are you going?" I asked Andy.
"Can we just go to your place and then I can try and get someone to get me from there?" He asked. I nodded and turned a corner. I had to stop myself from groaning when I realised that he was going to see my rubbish flat. Andy pressed play on the CD player and children surrender came on blasting. Andy shared another warm smile with me and began to sing along. I noticed that he didn't have his sunglasses on and I found myself praying to God that it was because of me that he had went against the sunglasses.
We finally arrived at my flat and I led him upstairs to my flat. I was worried that he would think I was disgusting after he saw the dump I lived in but he seemed cool with it so I let my nerves rest slightly. I opened the door to my room and we took a step inside.
"So who are you gonna call?" I asked plainly out of curiosity.
"Everyone in my contacts" Andy laughed. He turned away from me and started phoning people. After about ten minutes he finally turned back to me and sighed.
"What did they say?" I asked.
"I've got to find my own way there" He said.
"I'll try and take you but I need to get ready first" I said.
"I do too. I tell you it's a good thing I keep everything I need in here in case anything goes wrong" Andy said pointing to the bag that he had slung over his shoulder. I laughed at him and pointed at the bathroom. When he was in I changed into some different clothes that I was going to be wearing for the concert. It was a pair of black skinny jeans and a Black Veil Brides T-shirt and like I said I can't forget my black leather jacket. I ran a brush through my hair and poofed it up slightly. I heard a knock at the bathroom door and I grinned at myself.
"Yes I'm decent" I called through. Andy popped his head around the door and smiled again. He still didn't have his make up on but his hair was done and he was wearing all leather again. He stood next to me and we both done our make up for the concert. I couldn't get my eye make up right so Andy offered to help me. He turned me to face him and he done it for me all the while with his hand on the side of my face. I could feel my knees trembling.
"See you look amazing" He said to me. My phone just had to ruin the moment. I got it out and looked at it. It was a text from Darren. Darren was the type of guy that would pretend to be interested in you when really he was only interested in making out with you but he could be really nice so he was beginning to become a possibility. I put my phone back in my pocket.
"I'll ring him back tomorrow" I said mostly to myself but Andy heard me as well.
"Who was that?" He asked.
"It's Darren, he's my sort of boyfriend" I explained.
"Sort of?" Andy said with an inquisitive look.
"He keeps trying to kiss me but I've never kissed anyone and I don't know how to do it" I admitted. Andy nodded knowingly but before I could carry on with what I was saying Andy had his hands on my waist.
"It's fine" Andy reassured when he saw the shocked look on my face.
"What are you doing Andy?" I asked. I'm not ashamed to say that I was beginning to get a little wary. A rockstar was in my flat with his hands on my waist. You tell me how I'm supposed to react.
"Put your hands anywhere" He ordered. I couldn't even argue I just put my hands around his neck. He bent down and kissed my lips softly. God they were plush! I kissed back and soon we had a rhythm going on. He pulled away from me and smiled.
"Oh my god" I sighed.
"You'll be fine with this Darren" Andy said whilst touching his lips. I couldn't think of anything to say so I said the first thing that came to mind.
"Let's go" I said. We ran out of the flat and back to my car. We were driving round the coast when Andy finally spoke.
"How come you're being so silent?" Andy asked.
"We just kissed Andy" I laughed. I was so shocked that I didn't even know how to describe it to myself let alone describe it to Andy.
"Yeah I know I wanted to help you" Andy sighed.
"Ok so it didn't mean anything?" I asked.
"No" He replied. I let out a sigh of relief and my normal mood began to return.
"So who was your first kiss?" I asked. I had no idea if that was too personal so I just went for it.
"You" Andy finally answered. I pulled over and sat in silence.
"Me" I squeaked.
"Yes is that a problem?" Andy asked.
"No I was just wondering how someone that looks like you hasn't kissed anyone" I admitted. Damn at this moment in time I think I actually hate myself. Andy grabbed my hand and made me face him.
"I was your first kiss and you were mine. It really doesn't matter so let's drive" He said with another of those amazing smiles. I was speechless so the only thing I could do was nod at him and drive to the venue.
When we arrived Andy and I had to go our separate ways. He said goodbye to me and honestly I hoped to god that I would see him again. I can honestly say that he was great. I stood in the line and waited to enter the arena. Suddenly going to see Black Veil Brides seemed a lot more personal and I didn't feel like I was just a fan of theirs anymore. When I entered I managed to push my way to the front where they were just starting to set up. After what felt like hours of waiting they finally came out and started playing perfect weapon. I could see Andy scanning the audience. I really wanted him to notice me but the chance of that happening were slim to none. When the song finished Andy had a little speech to say.
"This song's for my first everything, my first really good friend, my first coffee shop encounter and my first kiss" He said with a cheeky smile. That was when his eyes fell on me. There were a few cheers from the audience and then he began to sing the Mortician's Daughter. I swear I could have fainted right then. I completely failed in trying to concentrate on the rest of the concert. Believe me I tried but my mind was in other places and every time I got into a song my mind never failed to wander. I was starting to get annoyed with the concert now. I just wanted to get to the meet and greet and talk to Andy really badly. Finally the concert was over and I was standing in the line waiting to talk to Andy. The line was just so long and after what felt like hours Andy was in my sight. Just seeing the tip of his hair was making my heart race with anticipation. With every second I was getting closer until I was finally standing in front of him.
"Hi Andy" I said.
"Oh Skye, I was wondering when I'd see you again" Andy said with another smile. God I think I live for those smiles now.
"The Mortician's Daughter was interesting" I laughed. He shook his head and laughed along with me.
"Did you like it?" He asked sweetly. I couldn't help but nod at him. He quickly pulled out a pen and grabbed the Kerrang magazine that I was holding in my hand. He scribbled his signature down and something else that I didn't quite get a chance to see what it was. I had been lost looking in Andy's eyes that I hadn't even noticed that Jake Pitts was standing next to us. He was looking at me with a bright smile planted on his face.
"And who's this then?" Jake asked me whilst stretching out his hand for me to take and shake.
"I'm Skye" I said whilst shaking his outstretched hand.
"The Skye Grace?" Jake asked.
"Um, excuse me?" I asked.
"Well Andy has told me so much about his first everything" Jake laughed and with that he was off talking to other fans of his.
"I best get to the other fans" Andy said. I nodded trying not to let his words hurt me and believe me it was difficult.
"Goodbye Andy" I said.
"Goodbye Skye" He sighed and then I simply walked away with my Kerrang magazine. I got to my car and sat in the driver's seat. Why couldn't I just have a simple life like everyone else? It just isn't fair. Is sighed to myself and put the keys in ignition and then I drove away from Andy.
When I arrived home I took a shower and took all of the make up off. I looked round the bathroom to find the baggy jeans that I wore for bed. I pulled them on and checked the pockets there was a small note in there it read:
Thanks for the help
-A6
My heart almost stopped dead in my chest when I saw it. I returned to my bed and pulled out my Kerrang magazine. I looked at Andy's signature and sighed to myself again but I could have screamed when I saw the next bit. It was his phone number! I pulled out my phone and began jamming in a text I couldn't wait for him to reply. There was one question running through my head as I texted. Why would Andy Six want me to have his phone number? I shrugged it off and sent the text that had held so much joy for me to type.
Hey thanks for giving me your number
-SkyeG
No problem you were great to me and I felt you deserved it
-A6
How was the meet and greet?
-SkyeG
Crappy. My mind was on other things
-A6
Like what?
-SkyeG
Oh it's nothing
-A6
KK I'm going to bed now. I'm off to town again tomorrow so I'm in need of some much appreciated beauty sleep.
-SkyeG
Psh, you don't need beauty sleep. Goodnight Skye xx
-A6
When I read that last text my heart was beginning to swell. I laughed to myself and turned my phone off. The light went off and I closed my eyes for the last time until I woke up.
