Black Waves

When He Gets The Tea

Two days go by and there has been no sign of Remington. Andy is a mess of a person and has been blowing up Remington's phone with texts and phone calls. Social media has had nothing either. He finally caves and sends a text to Emerson.

Andy- Hey, have you heard from Remi? Even if he's there and doesn't want to talk I just need to know he's okay

Two minutes later he gets a phone call from the brother. 

"Hey..."

"What's going on? Why do you think he's here? Did he leave?"

"Fuck...I was hoping he was with you... he walked out two days ago and I haven't heard anything since."

Emerson is panicked. "I know he isn't with Sebastian either. I'll try calling him hold on." Emerson grabs his other phone and dials his brother's number. It goes straight to voicemail.

"What happened that made him leave?"

Andy is trying to hold in his tears but his voice waivers, "He was so mad about the post I made sticking up for him. He said I shouldn't have done it and now all his privacy is gone. He told me to go ahead and show the world the photos and video of his rape so everyone can judge for themselves and that he is better off dead." 

"He's just had so much going on. I shared the post you made and I thought it was great. It was about time someone on our end talked about it because William's side has been outrageous. None of this shit is fair."

"Em, I'm just so fucking scared he hurt himself. I've been driving around the city the last few days and nothing. I know he won't fucking drive so he's on foot."

Emerson gulps. "Andy if it's been two days...maybe he did..."

"I can't even think of this. Just keep trying to contact him, okay?"

"I'm going to call the hospitals around there and see if they've seen them."

Andy's stomach drops at the thought. "Okay," he mumbles. "I'll call you if I hear anything...bye."

He is sobbing again. This is too hard to handle. My poor Remi...

Emerson is calling every hospital and no one has seen him by name or by description. Maybe this means he is still alive and a good thing. Or they haven't found him yet... 

Emerson decides to text Sebastian to keep him updated even though they aren't on best terms. Regardless of what Remington and him have been going through, it's still better to keep him in the loop.

Emerson- Hey, have you heard from Remington lately? He's having a breakdown of some sort and ran off

Sebastian- Shit serves him right. He just fucking uprooted his whole life and left us hanging

Emerson- You aren't worried in the least fucking bit? Your brother could be hurt or dead!

Sebastian- It's his life. It's what he wanted

Emerson groans and stops talking to him. They need to get the hell over themselves and make up already. 

Emerson- Rem, if you need space just let us know. I rather know you are okay

Andy takes another ride around the city and walks around some of the parks. He asks a couple of people who look like they stay in the area a lot if they've seen the man and everyone shakes their head no. He goes into a little coffee shop that looks so spiritual and earthy. So inviting. Andy goes in and orders a cappuccino and sighs, sitting at a little table with aloe in the middle.

A beautiful lady walks over and sets his drink in front of him. She has beautiful long black locks with gold wrapping around some of them. She has a rose gold septum and beautiful orange, blue, and yellow tattoos flowing down her arms, making her glow even more. Andy looks up and thanks the young woman and gives her a small smile.

"You know, you look a little familiar." The lady says, her name pin said Kamiatra. 

"I'm in a famous rock band, Black Veil Brides," Andy says quietly, rubbing his eyes. 

"Oh shit really? That's cool! I've listened to y'all for years now. But I swear I've seen you somewhere else. Have you been in the area long?"

"No, I moved out here with my boyfriend last month."

She sits across from him and smiles sincerely. "So what brings you here late at night to drink some more caffeine? You have wicked dark circles going on under your eyes right now."

He laughs a little and looks down. "My boyfriend left me about three days ago. I've been looking for him like crazy because no one has heard from him. He has a history of depression and suicidal thoughts so not knowing where he is..." he puts his elbows on the table and puts his head in his hands," I'm freaking the fuck out."

Kamiatra sips on her latte and listens to the man. "It must be heartbreak in the city this week. You aren't the first person to come in here feeling down as shit."

Andy mumbles, "Really?"

"Yeah. Another tall man came in here yesterday morning and sat in the shop for hours, drawing and drinking a bunch of tea. He was so funny but you can tell he had something going on. He said he broke up with his lover and is regretting it like crazy but can't go back. He was hot as fuck."

Andy picks up his head and finds a recent picture he took of his boyfriend. "Was...was this him?"

She nods and raises her eyebrow at Andy. "Well, damn, he don't play on my side then." They both laugh. 

"Do you know where he went? Or did he say anything else?"

"He really didn't say anything. Besides that he misses his lover like crazy and feels like he fucked everything up. He drew a bomb ass portrait of me though. I hung it up over there."

Andy looks at the portrait and smiles. That's definitely my baby... Andy gives her his number and stands up. "Please let me know if he comes around again, okay? The second he comes in."

She smiles and nods. "Get your bae back!"
