Andley: Normal is for Dweebs

Requested by @ellafifteen

Anorexia (an-o-REK-see-uh) nervosa - often simply called anorexia - is an eating disorder characterized by an abnormally low body weight, intense fear of gaining weight and a distorted perception of body weight. People with anorexia place a high value on controlling their weight and shape, using extreme efforts that tend to significantly interfere with activities in their lives.

Andy Biersack was Anorexic. He barely ate and was constantly tired from getting no nutrition to make energy. He'd never show his pain though.

No one could really tell that Andy had this problem. He was naturally skinny in lean, so you could barely notice how his ribs unnaturally stuck out. Plus, he'd have to remove his shirt.

He didn't know how he got this way. One day he was examining himself in the mirror when he noticed his stomach. Then his mind took over and destroyed his self image.

That was two years ago. Now he had a band and a boyfriend, who were unaware of his problem. Well, till today.

Andy and his boyfriend, Ashley were making out on the couch. Things got more heated and Ashley started stripping. Andy reluctantly joined, not wanting Ashley to get suspicious. He figured that the dark eyed man wouldn't really notice the small details since his Vision was clouded by lust.

Ashley was running his hands over Andy's body when he felt his spine and his ribs. He ran his hand over them again and decided to look down. That's when he fully noticed how skinny Andy was.

"Damn Andy, you should eat more." He commented, making the taller man red in the face.

"No way. I don't wanna be fat." Andrew said, without realizing."

"What? You never told me you had an eating problem."

At this point, Ashley was off Andy and putting his clothes back on.

"Wait Ash, I'm sorry. I-"

"No, just leave me alone. Oh god." Then Ashley was out the door, leaving Andy a mess.

Andy felt so stupid. Why couldn't he just be normal? He ran into the kitchen and started eating everything he could get his hands on. Unfortunately, his body couldn't handle it all and soon he was puking it all up.

Two Days Later

Ashley had spent a few days researching Andy's illness and felt horrible about the way he left. He was just shocked that someone so perfect could see theirselves in such a way.

He went back to Andy's place and hoped that his lover would see past his outburst.

He opened the door, to see Andy curled up on the couch.

"Uh Andy?"

The younger man's head snapped up, not expecting to hear that voice ever again. He watched as Ash came and sat next to him, running his hand over Andy's ribs.

"I'm gonna help you get better. It'll take awhile, but you're worth it to me. Do you wanna do this?" The brown eyed man asked, getting a hug in response.

"I wanna be normal. Not for me, but for you." Andy spoke, making their bond just a bit tighter.

Epilogue

It took three years to get Andy back on track. He relapsed a couple times, but Ashley was always there to pick his back up. They told their bandmates, but kept it from the fans. Who knew how they would react.

Fast forward another year and Ashley proposed to Andy. They got married 7 months after that. Their band was huge by now aswell.

Two years after the wedding they adopted twins, Maya and Aaron. Who they happily raised until they were off on their own.

Ashley and Andy Purdy both died on the same day, at age 79. Hand in hand they took their last breaths, silently thanking each other for the great life they lived.
