|~*~Carolyn~*~|
Tuesday, November 1
Carolyn stirred in her sleep. She was awake, but still had her eyes shut. She didn't want to get up yet. This was the best sleep she's had in years. Then she realized a pair or arms were around her, as if they were protecting her. She opened her right eye slightly. She saw part of a white button down shirt stained with fake blood. Andy.
She closed her eye and rested her head on his chest. She realized there was a blanket on them. That wasn't there last night., she thought. Maybe Andy put it on us. Or, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment, his mom did.
She felt Andy move a little in his sleep. No, please don't wake up., she thought. She was too comfortable to get up yet. But he woke up.
"Carolyn, are you awake?" he asked in a groggy voice.
"Yeah." she said and opened her eyes. She lifted her head and met his eyes. Then remembered why she was here and lowered her head. She sighed.
Andy knew what she was thinking about. "Do you wanna talk about it?" he asked cautiously.
Her mom always told her that telling people what was going on would make her feel better. She admits that telling Andy those two things that day at the park made her feel a bit better.
"I've had a hard life," she started. She took a deep breath in order to continue. "First, I was a premature baby. That's the reason I'm smaller than other girls my age. But that also meant that some of my organs weren't fully developed yet. My lungs weren't ready. I could breathe, but not much. So when I was born, the doctors kept me in the hospital with an oxygen mask for a week since that's how early I was. So at times, its a little hard for me to breathe."
"Another thing is that when I was nine, I went to the doctor for a checkup. Only the doctors were checking some of my blood and saw that I had cancer. I lived with it until when I was thirteen, it finally went away. Then things got better for a while, until..." she sniffled. "One day my mom was coming back from the funeral home. She was a mortician. On her way back, she got into a car crash with a drunk driver and was put into a coma. She was in it for two weeks, and finally, the life support wouldn't be enough. So the doctors took her off life support and she died in an hour." he wiped her eyes. "And after my mom's death, my dad wasn't the same. He started drinking more, going to friends house and not coming back for hours. He started to blame me for my mom dying, even though I didn't do anything. And finally, he took it out on me. Started beating me. If I hadn't run away with you last night, I would've gotten another beating after you would've left."
She let her tears come out. She wasn't bursting into hysterics. She had done enough of that before. But thinking about all that had happened to her in her 17 years was still hard.
"Carolyn, you're not alone. I've met tons of Black Veil Brides fans that have gone through some of the same things you have. You're not alone." Andy was quiet for some time, letting those last three words repeat in his head. You're not alone... Maybe I can put that in the song I'm working on. "Does anyone besides me know all of this?"
"CC knows everything except my dad beating me." she said. "I couldn't bare to see his reaction. His family lived with us in Nebraska before coming here last year. At that time, he would come over and try to make me feel better. Like acting like a complete idiot around the family. And he got really protective of me during middle school until finally I told him to stop when we were freshman in high school. He got less protective. If I didn't tell him to stop, he wouldn't even let me hang out with you by myself. He'd insist on being with me twenty-four seven."
"So then what's the real reason for you moving?" Andy asked.
She smiled. "I was able to convince him to move here. It was easy since he was drunk that day and because the next day he was too hungover to argue about it."
"You evil little girl," Andy teased.
"Hey if I didn't do that, I wouldn't even be here talking to you." Carolyn said.
"Good point."
"What time is it?" she asked.
Andy reached into his pocket and grabbed his phone. His eyes widened then relaxed. "Eh its just 10:53 am."
Carolyn's eyes widened and she sat up. "Its almost eleven? Why didn't we wake up for school?"
"Oh I woke up when my alarm rang. But I told my mom that you might not be up to going to school today so she's letting us stay in for the day. Besides, do you really wanna go to school after what happened last night?"
Carolyn thought about it. "Not really."
"Exactly." Andy finally sat up. His hair was a mess. And not in the way he had it last night as Sweeney Todd. Carolyn started laughing.
"What? Do I have something on my face?" he asked.
Carolyn shook her head. "Look at your hair!"
Andy stood up and went to the mirror that was in the guest room. His eyes widened. "Whoa. We got some serious work to do." he told his hair. He turned back to Carolyn. "Do you wanna take a shower?"
"Well yeah but what am I gonna wear?"
"Well I have some old clothes that should fit you. From when I was 14."
They left the guestroom and went down the hall to Andy's room, which was a complete mess. Typical. They looked through some boxes of old clothes and saw that an old pair of skinny jeans and a Misfits shirt would fit just fine.
They went downstairs and were greeted by Andy's mom who had a knowing smile on her face.
"Morning mom." Andy said, ignoring the smile on his moms face. He knew he'd have to talk about what she'd seen in the guestroom when she was checking up on Carolyn last night. But right now wasn't the time for that.
Andy's mom took one look at his hair and lost it. Andy huffed. "Yeah, yeah, yeah. My hair is a mess and its totally hilarious." he said in a sarcastic voice.
Finally Andy's mom noticed Carolyn standing behind Andy. "Hi, I'm Andy's mom, Amy." she said.
Carolyn introduced herself. "I'm Carolyn."
"Anyway," Andy turned to his mom. "Can Carolyn take a shower in your bathroom. I'm pretty sure she won't wanna go in mine."
His mom laughed. "You're right about that. Last time I went in there I saw some of your Batman boxers on the floor."
Andy's face reddened. "MOM!" His face got hotter when Carolyn started snickering into her palm.
"Sorry." his mom said, but she seemed to enjoy seeing him that way. "Anyway, of course she can! She can borrow one of the extra towels in there. Its a blue one." she took another look at Andy. "And you should shower up too. Mainly to fix your whole hair situation."
|~*~Carolyn~*~|
Andy's old clothes did fit Carolyn. So when she was showered and dressed, she went back to Andy's room. She knocked before coming in. Last time she didn't knock before going into a guys room, she saw CC naked. O_O
"Come in." Andy's voice said. Carolyn opened the door and walked in to see Andy drying his hair with a towel. When he stopped, his hair was dry and it looked a bit wavy instead of straight.
He pulled out his flat iron. "If I don't get my hair straightened, soon my hair will look like I have curly fries growing out of it."
Carolyn laughed at the thought of seeing actual curly fries growing out of his head. Then she noticed there was a few strands that weren't black.
"Do you have blond hair streaks?" she asked.
"I'm pretty sure I don't." he said. She walked up to him and showed him the hairs in a small mirror she found on his desk. "Oh... it looks like that part's going blonde."
"Going blonde?" Carolyn asked.
"My hair isn't naturally black. Its actually blonde. I just dye it black."
Carolyn cocked her head and tried to picture Andy with blonde hair. She couldn't do it. Andy chuckled and grabbed a photo frame. There was a boy about twelve in hockey gear with curly blonde hair. He had Andy's smile and eyes and-
"Wait is that you?" she asked.
"Yup." Andy said.
"Well you've certainly changed." she said. Just then Andy's phone blasted Knives and Pens.
One final fight for this tonight, whoa!
With knives and pens we made our plight.
Andy saw that it was CC. Oh boy...
"He-"
"WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU AND MY COUSIN? IF YOU'VE DONE ANYTHING TO HER I SWEAR I WILL-"
"CC, dude, relax. I'll explain later. Just tell the others that you guys have to come over to my house after school. And I swear I haven't hurt her. Quite the opposite, actually." Andy said.
CC seemed to relax. "Okay. I'll tell them." and Andy hung up.
"What happened?" Carolyn asked.
"CC freaked and they're coming over after school."
"Why?"
"Because we're going to get your stuff and move it into CC's house." Andy said. Carolyn still seemed confused. "I don't think its a good idea for you to live with him. So I think you should tell CC about your dad and we'll move you into his house."
Carolyn's face lit up. "Oh my gosh.. That's a great idea!" she ran up to Andy and gave him a hug. Then pulled back with doubt on her face. "But.. Wait... How are we going to get my stuff without my dad knowing?"
"Hm... Well we could call the cops and tell them that he's been abusing you. That'll get him out of your life. He won't hurt you that way."
"You'd really do that?" Carolyn asked.
"I really would." he said and pulled her back for another hug.
