A/N – two chapters in two days :O like I say I'm going to try and keep updating more regularly, I'm writing on the chapters while I'm on my breaks at work as well as my days off, any reviews are welcome and if you do, keep in mind I am dyslexic, so I do have issues with grammar and spelling but this is something I do struggle with, if you do notice any spelling mistakes, words missing or grammar errors please let me know!
Anyhow onto the chapter. I am starting this one while they are getting ready for the award show as I am from Scotland and have never been to New York so don't really know what to write about when they would be exploring haha.
Yes I do still get where, were and we're mixed up.
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
Corey POV
"Chris are you nearly ready?" I shouted to the bathroom while inspecting myself in the mirror, I had on a long black dress, with red lace, with off the shoulder straps and black converse, no way was I wearing heels right now in case I fell, my hair which was now dark blue had grow to just above the middle of my back with a full fringe was curled and hung down my back with some of it tied up leaving my fringe to frame my face, my make up was simple, dark lined eyes with a cut crease and dark red lips, applying the last of my highlight I took one more look at myself from different angles making sure my bump was not visible through my dress, nodding to myself I turned to the bathroom door just as Chris walked out and I swear my stomach flipped, Chris had on a white shirt black suite and tie, his long hair brushed and kept off his face with his usual black and white bandana and no eyeliner on his eyes.
"yeah babe I'm ready" he smiled walking towards me "I am starting to wish we didn't need to go to this award show, you look beautiful" wrapping me in his arms and pulling me in for a hug "baby the things I would do to you" He growled in my ear
"No Chris, we have to go" I laughed as he moved my hair over my shoulder kissing my neck.
"Mmmm…I know we better head to the lobby to meet the guys there" Chris groaned moving to take my hand.
We walked out the room towards the elevator, it was a nice day today and we had spent all day exploring round New York, we had a couple people come and ask for pictures or autographs but it was lovely, I couldn't believe how much colder New York was to Cali in the Autumn, Andy had managed to pick us up some things for the baby while him and Mar got stuff for the twins, since we couldn't go get it our selves incase anyone seen us.
Once we reached the Lobby everyone was there waiting for us all the guys dressed in suites like Chris but Andy had on a black shirt and waist coat and his now short hair was gelled back looking very sleek, I walked over to Frankie and Mar who where stood off slightly to the side, Mar had on a white dress like mine with black Lace, black heels and her hair straightened, her hair was now white blond with pink ends, and natural make up, Frankie had on a blue dress that came to just above her knees, with heavy lined eyes no other make up, and her shoulder length hair tied up, Lily had on the same as me but her hair down and straight and Lacey was wearing a red floor length dress and her hair was left in her natural waves which was currently a dark brown , Frankie looked towards me a gleam in her eyes
"Why do you look so happy" I asked as I got closer and Chris had walked to wards Andy and the rest of the gang.
"Oh I don't know, could be to do with some noises I heard from your room last night" Frankie smirked
"Oh..um…yeah "I stuttered feeling my face heat up, Frankie just laughed and put her arm over my shoulder.
"Corey don't be embarrassed, I'm happy for you, we both are " Frankie turned to Marilyn "We all know how worried you have been about everything" She smiled careful not to mention the baby "but its good that you and CC had some time together last night"
"I am still worried, that hasn't changed…It was spontaneous" I smiled thinking of last night "the only weird thing was I could feel the it move while we where doing it"
"You'll get used to that, trust us" Marilyn laughed "well lets get going, they are sending a limo to collect us and we will get out photo's taken walking on the black carpet"
-At the venue-
"Wow this place is amazing!" I smiled holding onto Chris's hand as he helped me out the car,
"It really is" Ashley grinned "should we see if one of the photographers can take a group picture of us?"
"I don't see why not" Andy smiled smiling towards the flashing lights before walking over to one of the many photographers "do you mind taking a group picture of my friends and I?"
"No, not at all, if all the guys stand at the back, Ashley you stand in front of Marilyn and we'll take a nice couples picture" The man smiled and waited as we got into position for the picture,
"Nice big smiles" The photographer shouted as he clicked the button and the flash went off,
"Thanks man! It's very much appreciated" Andy smiled taking the mans hand and shaking it
"Its no problem at all, I'll send a copy to the people who organise the awards and they can forward it on to you, it will be published in Kerrang! Though "the guy smiled at Andy before moving to take pictures of the other people coming up the carpet
"That was so nice of him" Lacey smiled taking Jakes hand and walking towards the door
"Yeah it was" I agreed looking up at Chris, who was already looking down at me "I love you"
"I love you too baby" Chris smiled leaning down to kiss me, even with my eyes closed I could still see the flash go off, pulling away from Chris I turned to wards the cameras
"Sorry, to romantic of a moment not to capture it" the man from before smiled "do you want to see it?"
I nodded walking towards him while he loaded the picture on the to digital screen of his Camera,
Looking at the picture of me and Chris, one arm wrapped securely round my back, the other lightly resting on my stomach, however unless you where really looking it would just look like it was resting on my hip, my arms where loosely wrapped round his neck, the picture taken just before we kissed and we where both smiling at each other with our eyes closed.
"Oh wow" I whispered tears coming to my eyes "I love it"
"I'll send it to you along with the other one" He smiled.
"Thank you!" I smiled trying not to let the tears fall,
"Come on Corey, we need to go in" Chris smiled pulling me with him, we found out table with the rest of the guys, we also had a few other people sitting at our table, I recognised Taylor Mommsen as one of the people at our table and then James and Charlie, James was dressed in all black and Charlie had on a light green silk top and black jeans, MCR was sat at the table next to us, Andy was currently talking to Frank and Gerard,
"Hey guys, have we missed much? " I asked taking my seat between Mar and Chris
"Nah they are coming round with the food in a few and then they will start announcing the winners" Lily smiled over at me.
"Oh good! I'm starving" I smiled
"When are you not though Corey" Lily laughed
"That's true" I laughed with my sister who smiled knowingly at me
"They came and took the drink orders, I just got you a water and CC a beer" Ash smiled
"Thank you!" Chris grinned just was the waiter came to drop off the drinks and advise the food would be coming out now.
-Frankie POV –
The food had just been served and we where listening to the hosts Corey Taylor and Danny from Asking Alexandria announce the winners for best new comers
"The nominees are, Black Veil Brides, Partners in Crime, and the pretty reckless, can we have a drum roll please" Corey Taylor spoke into the mic while opening a black envelope,
"And the winner is…Partners in Crime" Danny yelled into the mic
"Oh my god….oh my god we won!" I gasped looking towards Corey, Lily, Marilyn and Lacey who looked equally as shocked as I did, Corey looked like she was about to cry as CC pulled her into a hug, before helping her out her seat, Jeremy walked us up to the stage where Corey and Danny stood waiting with our awards,
"Well done girls, you should be very proud!" Danny smiled moving us over to the mic stand,
"Well, we have no idea where to start" Corey smiled into the mic, "We just want to thank every single person who has supported us and believed in us and voted for us"
"We really do appreciate you all so much" I smiled into the mic "I would however like to make a small announcement if that's okay?" I turned to wards Danny and Corey who nodded and I waved for Jeremy to come up on stage as the girls went back to the table Chris going to help Corey back to her seat,
Jeremy came and stood beside me placing his hand on the small of my back as I stood away from the mic stand and Jeremy took my place
"As you all may know just over 5 months ago Frankie and I got married, however we have been keeping a secret from most of our friends and fans which we would like to share with you now" Jeremy smiled "We are delighted to announce we are expecting a baby at the start of January"
"We would like to add that you all respect our privacy at this time but just wanted to let you all know" I added, the room burst into applause as we walked off the stage and went to join our friends, Gerard and Frank stood and gave us both a hug as did Mikey and Ray and congratulated us
"Well done guy's!" Corey smiled taking my hand as I sat back down "I'm so proud of you both"
We spent the rest of the night thanking people who congratulated us while we watched other awards being handed out, BVB won for best album, which they could not believe they won but where delighted about.
"Corey?" Jeremy asked looking at his sister
"Yeah?" she smiled turning to him as he walked over to her under the guise of giving her a hug
"Have you thought about telling people? I mean you only have a few months left before he's here you might feel less worried about anything happening" Jeremy whispered to her while looking at me,
Corey stiffened slightly in his arms before pulling away to look at him "you're kidding right?" She whispered her voice shaking slightly
"It was just a thought Corey, I'm not saying you should" Jeremy reassured her, CC patted him on the back
"I think I am going to take Corey home now" Chris smiled helping Corey stand, we watched them walk out the door with instructions to send us a video of them getting back into the room
"Do you think they will be okay?" Ashley asked turning towards us
"I think so, I think they are still just scared, there has been some progress I guess which is better then nothing" I smiled
"What do you mean?" Marilyn asked leaning over Ashley
"Well…" I ducked my head down and lowered my voice before looking back at Ashley and Marilyn
"They had sex last night" I told them Jeremy groaned next to me and Marilyn laughed
"Yes I would agree that is progress" Ash laughed Marilyn just smirked
"How you are not grossed out by hearing that" Jeremy asking Marilyn "that's our sister"
"Well they have been together long enough and…" Marilyn trailed off but we knew he was refering to the fact she was pregant "What did you say that made them leave?"
"I asked if they had given it another thought about telling people, that it might make them worry less if more people know, but I think they are worried if they do the same thing might happy that will cause them to loose it" Jeremy shrugged "I can understand why they are worried, I mean Brent seems to have a personal vendetta against Corey which I would love to know why, but its different this time, we all know that we would make sure nothing happened to her"
"Maybe we should ask Corey why he seems to hate her so much, I mean he didn't really start to target her till he relationship with CC went public" Lily added.
"Hmm…I suppose your right, seems weird doesn't it?" Andy agreed "I think we should ask when we get back to the room"
"Yeah I think your right, it might help her feel more at ease" I nodded as my phone dinged with a video from CC
-CC POV-
"Corey, baby, I know you're worried, I am to, but Maybe Jinxx has a point?" I asked turning to look in my fiancé who was now sitting on the bed in a vest top and shorts, make up off and hair wet from the shower
"I know, I know he has a point, and it might be the right point, but I can't Chris, I really can't, I don't want people to find out and something to happen, I want to wait till he's born and I can protect him" Corey looked down " I wish I wasn't so worried, but Chris you don't understand!"
"What do you mean I don't understand?!" I yelled turning towards her narrowing my eyes "I am the only other person who understands how you feel Cassandra! We both lost our daughter, not just you"
"yes Christian" She narrowed her eyes back at me " I am well aware of that fact, believe me I am" I could see the tears start to pool in her eyes "you might know the how it feels to loose our daughter, but you didn't need to go through the actual physical pain of bringing that baby into the world knowing she would never take her first breath, knowing that I didn't protect her, that she was already dead " Corey finished as the tears started to run down her cheeks, bringing her hand to her face to wipe them away "YOU" she pointed towards me "have NEVER had to feel that pain, and I thank god every single day that you didn't because it kills a little bit of me every time I think of it"
I moved to walk towards her and she held her hand up stopping me in my tracks "Christian…" she sighed looking at me, her eyes glittering with unshed tears "I love you. I love you more then words can explain…I can't even begin to explain how much I love you, how I loved you before I even knew what love was, you and this baby are my whole world, I can't" she stopped for a moment " I can't risk loosing either of you, I don't want to tell anyone, because if people find out before he's born, what's to stop Brent arranging to me to get jumped again?"
"Corey I would never let that happen" I told her, looking to the ground "but you need to understand its different this time, everyone of our friends know this time, none of them would let anything happen to you or the baby"
"I know that Chris, but I knew Brent was going to do something last time and I didn't do anything to stop it" Corey cried, more tears made their way down her cheeks
"What?...what do you mean Corey?" I asked walking towards her again "you didn't know he had anything to do with it till he blurted it out at school" she shook her head
"No Chris, I knew he was going to do something, I just thought it would be him, not a group of random guys"
"Corey..?" I stopped when I heard a knock at the door, I moved towards the door and opened it, and everyone was stood outside
"Can we come in?" Andy asked motioning inside
"yeah, what's up?" I asked moving to allow them in
"Corey, we need to ask you something, please don't get upset or angry when we do" Andy smiled standing in front of her "Why does Brent seem to hate you more then the rest of us?"
Corey looked shocked for a second before turning to me
"I..um…well" Corey muttered her eyes never leaving mine "before things became serious with me and Chris, I was friends with Brent" Corey stated, moving to sit on the bed "I know he used to terrorize us, but when it was just me and him we where friends, it was nice, having my own secret friend, we ended up getting to be more then friends, we slept together"
"What?!" Jinxx yelled "When?"
"Before I got close with Chris" Corey muttered, looking down "it only happened once, I spoke to Chris like properly got to know him and we fell in love, Brent Told me it wasn't going to happen again and i agreed, it was to awkward but then when I went public with Chris he changed, started being worse to everyone, so I cornered him about it, about why he was leaving dead animals in my locker, and he told me he was In love me, I laughed at him, told him I didn't feel the same, that I loved Chris and he put his hands on my waist, tried to kiss me, but turned my face to the side, I guess he was trying to convince me he was the one for me, he felt the my bump and the baby moving he was so angry, said he would make me regret what I had done, that's when you all came bursting into the art room and he was strangling me, before I blacked out, not long after I was attacked and lost Rebel" Corey was full blown sobbing now, I moved over and pulled her to my side keeping her close to me
"Corey… why didn't you tell us?" Frankie asked motioning between her and Mar
"we promised to keep it a secret, it was never supposed to go as far as it did, we had been drinking and it just happened" Corey looked up at me " are you going to leave me?"
"No, no baby of course not! I love you, what happened in the past is in the past" I smiled kissing her softly as Mar and Frankie came over and hugged her between me and them
The rest of the gang looked at Corey with shocked looks on their faces, "Corey you should have told us" Andy said sadly "we're your family, we would have kept it a secret"
"I know you would have, I'm sorry" Corey cried tears falling faster then before.
"No, Corey its okay! I'm just glad we know now" Andy took Corey from me wrapping her in a hug,
I looked at Corey and smiled before pulling her back to me and placing a chaste kiss on her head before turning to the other people in the room. "guys, if you don't mind can you all leave? I would like to spend the rest of the night showing my woman how much I love her"
