A/N: This is a one-shot I came up with the song 'Andy, You're a Star' by The Killers. I'm not going to tell you who the main character is; it's a guy, that's all I'm saying. You'll figure it out. ;-) I've never written a story with a song in this style before, hope you like it.
The italics are the song lyrics.
Andy, You're a Star
Dear Andy,
On the field I remember you were incredible, I'd watch from the bleachers with the crowd. I'd stay as long as I could, until they would find me just to pick on me. They'd call me names-
"Looser!"
"Hey! Shut up!"
"Fag!"
"Dumb ass!"
"Hey, shut up!" Yeah, I wasn't very good at insults or staying away.
On the field I remember you were incredible, soccer was defiantly your game. You'd be running across the field, my eyes following that green and blue jersey of yours as they pulled me away. I would scream when you scored a goal, I would scream when they'd punch me in the face. Their voices screamed over mine.
"Hey shut up!"
"Hey shut up!" Yeah, they couldn't keep me silent.
Sincerely,
Your number one fan

Soccer season ended, but that didn't stop you. On the match with the boys, you think you're alone, your parents refused to come but I wouldn't. I watched from the sidelines, silently hoping that you'd notice I was there. But you were focused, and you were great. I loved watching you with the pain that you drain from love for the sport.
I wish I could be like you sometimes.

Dear Andy,
I saw you yesterday. In a car with a girl, promise me she's not your world. Tell me she was just a one time deal. Tell me you don't care for her. Tell me… Something.
'cause Andy, you're a star, you deserve so much better than her.
Sincerely,
Your number one fan

You walked up to me today, looked me over with those piercing blue eyes of yours. I could feel my heart beating harder and harder, and then you smiled. I swear I melted right there, right on your red and black high tops sneakers.
"Leave your number on the locker, and I'll give you a call." You said handing me a paper with your locker number. You flashed me that smile of yours again and I almost melted a second time.
Locker 229, I already knew the number by heart. I had seen you there everyday fifth hour on my way to Science. I was so happy that I almost didn't see the two meatheads behind me. They smiled at me; theirs no where near as beautiful as yours. I remember briefly wondering where the teachers or hall Nazis were while they dragged me by the collar.
"Let me go!" I screamed trying to pull away.
"Hey shut up!" Meathead number one shouted down at me.
"Hey shut up!" Meathead number two repeated the first as he pushed open the bathroom door, "Yeah…" He grinned helping the other shove me in the urinal. One of them pulled off my sunglasses blinding me, I heard them being dropped in the toilet.

Dear Andy,
Today I walked down the hallway by the Gym. You leave your legacy in gold on the plaques that line the hall. You're such an awesome athlete. I smile touching the paper in my pocket, the one that held my home number, the one I was going to give to you. The meatheads from yesterday gave me a black eye which I had to explain to my guardian as an accident. Their voices still echo in my head,
"Hey shut up, hey shut up, yeah…"
But your voice is louder, I can't wait to hear it again.
Love,
Your number one fan

I went into town today. On the streets, such a sweet face jumping in town was you walking into the drug store. I had half a mind to follow you in to see why you haven't called. It's been three days. I heard you tell one of the jocks your E-mail this afternoon. Maybe I'll just E-mail you…

The teachers all glare at me, like I'm some kind of freak. In the staff room the verdict is in, the principal walked out with Logan and Xavier. They look at me with disappointment, how could I do such a thing? I just saw you there, in a car with a girl. I just wanted you to promise me she's not your world.
The officer standing next to me helps me up pulling my hands behind my back. How could I do such a thing? I loved you, 'cause Andy, you're a star, In nobody's eyes but mine.
You stare at me from the window in the principal's office, disgust on your face, a bandage covering your right cheek.
And I can't stop myself from screaming, "Andy, you're a star, in nobody's eyes but mine!" And I can't stop myself from crying as the officer pulls me away and you close the blinds.
Andy, you're a star
In nobody's eyes…
In nobody's eyes but mine…

A/N: Yea, a little creepy. But what can I say? I wanted to write a one-shot with this song. Please, please, please review!
