Never Give In

Hope you enjoy it!

Chapter Two

When I woke up there was only two things on my mind. Going to town and checking my phone. When I turned it on I had a new text from Andy.

Morning! Did you get your beauty sleep?
-A6

I hurried to text back whilst trying to get ready. Let me be the first to say that pulling on skinny jeans whilst trying to text people is not the easiest thing that a person can do. I finally finished and sent:

Of course I did. You should come to town today you might just see me.

-SkyeG

Way ahead of you I'm already there.

-A6

I'm coming down now. I'll see you in the coffee shop soon.

-SkyeG

I was speeding down the road. I couldn't wait to talk to Andy again; it's going to be great. I parked in the same car park as yesterday. I hurried through the little shopping centre and I could soon see the small coffee shop again I opened the door and went in. My old babysitter wasn't working today so instead there was an old woman who I had never talked to before. I hurried down the small aisle and found Andy sitting in the corner table. He was hunched over a notebook and when I came into view he put it back in the bag that was draped around his chair.

"I have a notebook that I write all of my feelings and stuff like that into too" I said.

"Do you write songs?" Andy asked.

"No I write stories. I want to be a writer so I write everywhere I go since you never know what might give you inspiration" I explained. Andy nodded with an admiring look on his face. He pushed the seat opposite him with his foot and gestured for me to sit down. Damn! He was so great. I could feel a blush rising to my cheeks so I quickly sat down and tried to hide my face but Andy leaned forward and made me face him.

"I won't hide my eyes with sunglasses if you don't hide your blush. It's very cute and could be considered sexy" Andy said. I was honestly mesmerised by him that the only thing I could do was slowly nod at him. He thought my blush was cute and sexy at the same time. That's a good thing considering the fact that he'll be seeing it a lot. The old woman who I had never spoken to came over and handed me my coffee. I smiled at her and she smiled back.

"You two make the cutest couple ever" She said before leaving again. The one thing that I had noticed there was the fact that Andy never said that we weren't a couple. My God I need to stop my heart from racing like this. I found myself tugging on my lip ring like I do when I get nervous. It's a bad habit that I really need to kick but hey, I'm sitting in a coffee shop with a guy that I really like, what am I supposed to do?

"I'm definitely not going to kiss Darren" I blurted. I generally had no idea why I wanted to tell Andy that but I can honestly say that I hate myself for it.

"How come?" Andy asked. He generally seemed like he cared about it even though it must have been the stupidest thing to talk about in the whole world.

"I think I like someone else" I answered truthfully. The other person that I like is Andy but I just made that completely obvious in front of Andy himself.

"Who is it?" Andy asked with that same cheeky smile that he had at the concert when he was talking about me. It was like he knew a secret that no one else knew and he was proud of it.

"Enough about me I want to talk about that little speech before you sang the Mortician's Daughter" I said with a cheeky smile of my own. Andy blushed furiously and tried to turn away but I made him face me.

"What are you doing?" Andy asked.

"Don't hide your blush it's cute too" I admitted. His blush was still there but a wide smile took its place.

"I'm sorry about the whole Mortician's Daughter thing" Andy finally said.

"It was very sweet" I said whilst leaning back in my chair. A silence fell over us but this time it was the most comfortable thing in the world. I just love just sitting near him. I couldn't stop myself from looking into his eyes and getting lost in them. The blueness of them seemed to pierce me. He had toned down the make up considerably and was just wearing a fine line of eyeliner around his eyes like I do. God he was perfect in every way possible. When we finished our coffee I told him that I had to go to the library. I didn't have to but I really wanted to show him something. When we made it there I walked to a corner with a small stack of papers there. I picked them up and passed them over to him.

"What is it?" He asked.

"The library said that they would put my work on display" I said proudly. He gave me another smile and read it. When he was done reading he had the same smile planted on his face.

"It's brilliant" He sighed. I didn't want the goofy smile to be planted on my lips but it was there.

"Thank you" I sighed. He put the small pile of papers back on the desk and took my hand.

"Where do you want to go?" Andy asked me whilst leading me out of the library.

"Home" I groaned and we did just that. We got back to my car so I drove back to my house. I was beginning to get very tired now and it was a practically a battle with my eyes to get them to stay open. I could tell that Andy could tell that I was tired because he kept shooting me nervous glances. I was sure he thought I was just going to close my eyes and fall asleep when I'm in the middle of driving us home.

We finally arrived at the block of flats that I live at. I led him up to my room just like I did yesterday and as soon as we got into the room I went over to the bed and quite basically collapsed onto it. It felt so nice to just close my eyes and begin to fall asleep. Andy sat down next to me and I knew it would be bad if I didn't strike up a conversation but I was stumped but luckily he managed to start the conversation.

"So I'm going to be here for the next three months" Andy voiced.

"How come?" I asked.

"Tour's over and I have family here" Andy explained.

"Good" I mumbled whilst moving over to cuddle into him slightly. God I am far too forward with people. I need to learn to cut it out but surprisingly Andy didn't try to move away from me or mock me.

"Why?" Andy chuckled.

"Because it means I get to spend more time with you" I said sleepily.

"You're a fan" Andy said. Ouch! Now I'm wide awake. I'm not going to lie about this what Andy just said really did hurt me. I sat up and looked at him. He had his eyes shut and looked like he didn't have a care in the world.

"What?" I whispered. I didn't want Andy to see the hurt in my eyes but I couldn't stop myself from saying it. He looked at me and I could tell that he felt awful but I can bet that he didn't feel as awful as me.

"Oh Skye no" Andy started but I cut him off before he could finish.

"So do you sit and have coffee with all of your fans? Is that really all I mean?" I asked. I could feel the tears begin to fill my eyes. I mentally told myself off for getting so wound up about it. I had to get a hold of myself. Andy shot up and pulled me closer to him. He was staring into my eyes and making me get all breathless again.

"When I said that you were a fan I was meaning to say that I can't believe how I could care about a fan like this" He said.

"Like what?" I asked.

"You'll find out one day" He sighed. He turned away from me and lay down on his side. Although what he said to me could be considered hurtful I knew that he was forgiven. I couldn't tell if he was annoyed with me so I just done what I thought was best. I lay down and put my arm around his waist. I could feel him relax and then he turned to face me. Now it was my turn to relax. He pushed a stray hair away from my face and smiled at me again. I was so relieved when he flashed that smile at me that I practically barrelled into him. A small chuckle escaped him and he put his arms tightly around me. I dug my head into his chest and was surprised when I felt a cold tear roll down my cheek.

"I'm so sorry" I whispered. Andy forced me to make eye contact with him. When he saw me his face softened even more, if that was even possible.

"Why are you crying?" He asked me.

"I thought you hated me. I don't want to lose the only friend that I've had since I was about five" I admitted. Andy sighed and pulled me even closer to him.

"I could never hate you" Andy sighed. He kissed my forehead. I thought that was going to be it but apparently not. He moved down to my cheek then to my lips. He hesitated as though he knew it was wrong but when passion got too much to bear he pressed his lips to mine. It was so slow and gentle that it felt like my stomach was doing flips. It was so much better than the first kiss that was strictly as friends but God knows what we are now. Was I a fan, friend or was I more than that? Andy pulled away suddenly with a horrified look on his face. With one look at him I knew exactly what he was going to say.

"Don't even dare apologise" I said. He looked at me again and bit his lip slightly. That was when he made his choice. He pressed his lips back to mine and made all the hurt and tears simply melt away. It was so gentle and sweet that it reached complete perfection and had me breathless.

"How's that for an apology?" Andy whispered against my lips.

"It was perfect" I laughed. All of the feelings of tiredness had washed away from me. It was as though his kiss purified and cured me.

"I've been wanting to do that ever since I stole your first kiss" He admitted. Although I stayed silent I knew that I was thinking the exact same thing. I had also been wanting to do that ever since he had pulled away from me yesterday.

"Wow" Was all I managed to say. Andy chuckled slightly but turned back to compete seriousness again. He took my hand and sat up. I followed his exact movement.

"If we're going to do this then we'll have to do this slowly" Andy said. I hated to say it but I completely agreed with him. The thought of rushing into anything with Andy physically scared me. What if he just thought that I was nice and then started to get to know me and then thought that I was a complete and utter twat?

"I agree" I managed to say. He nodded at me slightly then kissed my cheek.

"I'll tell the band but no one else yet" Andy said to me.

"Like I's have anyone to tell" I laughed. To me I think it's a good thing that I can laugh about the past that caused me so much misery when I was just a small child. I never understand why everyone had to be set at a certain standard. To me it was just pathetic. That was when I remembered. How could I have forgot about him?

"What's wrong?" Andy asked when he saw my expression.

"I do have a friend and I completely forgot about him" I gasped. We don't really see each other much but he texts me and phones me all the time.

"That's really good" Andy said with another kiss but this time it was just for my cheek.

"Mhm" I whispered. I looked up at Andy and to say the least I was shocked. His blue eyes looked even bluer and his hair just seemed slightly different. Maybe it was because he was mine and I was his. Could things like that change a person? I honestly don't have any idea but I knew one thing. I was even more attracted to Andy than I was yesterday.

"Are you ok?" Andy asked me. He had to have sensed that I was feeling rather distant from him. I didn't mean to be but I always get like that if I'm trying to think about something.

"Are we going too fast?" I asked him. Andy's facial expression hadn't changed so I'm assuming that he feels the same way.

"How about we start off as good friends who kiss a bit?" Andy asked with a small laugh. I nodded at him with complete seriousness and he nodded back. I have to admit that that was a stupid move but I still don't think that I'm ready for this. Besides my friend Alex was coming tomorrow and he was staying for the weekend so I didn't want anything to get in the way of our weekend together. When I next looked at Andy he seemed quite hurt and to be honest I don't blame him. I had went from being all into him to telling him that I thought we were going too fast. I had said it with our best interests at heart. I leaned in slightly and pecked his lips. God, why did he have to be so alluring? I couldn't help but put my arms around his neck and kiss him more. He let his hand snake into my hair. It felt as though his hand belonged there and to be perfectly honest I never wanted him to move his hand. It was me to pull away this time and then I was back to pulling on my lip ring. I had to learn how to break this habit. He grabbed my hand and made me leave my lip ring alone. It was a good thing as well. At the rate that I was going at I would have ended up ripping it out completely.

"You'll get an infection if you keep doing that" he warned.

"I'm tired" Was all I managed to whisper. He looked at me one last time and then nodded in understanding. He threw himself off my bed then walked over to my side. He bent down ever so slightly and pressed his lips to my forehead. When he pulled himself away he hesitated and then with a warm smile he walked out of my bedroom.

I pulled myself under the covers and shut my eyes. I wasn't aiming to go to sleep I just wanted to think for once in these last two days since they had been so stressful. I'm sure everything in my life was trying to be stressful in this moment in time. I can't wait for Alex to get here tomorrow. He would know how to make me feel better. He'd be able to take my mind off it he always managed it when we were kids so why should now be different?

I don't want to think anymore it was difficult and it was making me miserable. Why did everything have to be so hard? I need Alex now! He always makes me the darkest of days feel so much further away than they actually are. This is one of the many reasons why I love Alex. Did Andy even compare to Alex? Maybe I should make a move on Alex. There's been countless times when Alex has tried it on with me and I've said no. Maybe I should say yes if he tries again. No! That's slutty. I can't believe I even had that thought. That's ridiculous! He's my best friend I could never do that to him. I knew he liked me a bit more than friends so it would be bitchy of me to play with his feelings like that. Now I really want to go back to bed. I was shattered and confused and to put it bluntly I wanted Andy but first I really had to explain everything to Alex. He would be able to give me the best advice in the world and if he didn't then I'd have to suck it up and deal with it in my own way without the help of the amazing Alex.

I threw my head back and sighed but that didn't get my anger out. I just had to scream so that's exactly what I done. Afterwards I actually felt physically lighter and way more happy. I finally let it out but I still have to talk to someone about it.

I didn't get a chance to think about how I was going to tell Alex what happened because I could feel myself drifting off into sleep. As it was arriving I let out a sigh of relief. Finally! Now I would have a couple of hours peace where no one would be able to bother me about anything in the world not even Andy could get to me now which I couldn't decide if it was a good thing or a bad thing but to be honest I couldn't care less anymore the darkness was getting too close now to let me even consider thinking about anything else. So I shut my eyes and let it fold over me as I bathed in the calmness of it all and boy did it feel good to have relief.
