Chemical Love (Craig Mabbitt Fanfic)

Chapter 23

*Andy’s POV*

Anastasia walked on our bus without knocking and it she didn’t look good. What the fuck? I swear, if Craig did anything…

She interrupted my thoughts when she hugged me and started crying. I wrapped my arms around her trying to comfort her. She wasn’t calming down whatsoever so I did was I do best; I sang. I started singing Saviour knowing what it meant to her.

‘A saviour, will be there

When you’re feeling alone, oh

A saviour for all that you do

So you live freely without their harm…’

She calmed a bit and pulled back. She still had tears in her eyes and makeup running down her cheeks. She had pure sadness in her eyes and I felt bad for her.

‘Do you want to tell me what happened?’ I asked her. I just wanted to there for her. She looked hesitant for a minute and held back her tears.

‘My dad…he committed suicide a-and he left me some sort of note or s-something…I have to go back to Chicago as s-soon as I c-can,’ she chocked on her words as tears lined her eyes again. I pulled her to my chest again as she started crying.

‘It’s OK. It’s going to be OK. I promise,’ I tried to comfort her. Pulling away, she shook her head.

‘No, he was my only family…’ she explained everything. From her father drinking to her brother abandoning her. She was crying once again by the end of it. I hugged her tight and stroked her hair. We completely ignored the rest of the guys on the bus.

‘Hey, it’s OK. You have us and Escape The Fate. Basically everyone on this tour. You’re not alone,

We’ll brave this storm…’ I sang Carolyn to her; it just seemed to fit the moment. She calmed down and I insisted she stayed with us for the night. She agreed and went to grab some clothes. I started to acknowledge Ashley’s and CC’s presence.

‘Well that was…interesting…’ Ashley said breaking the awkward silence. I just nodded my head still shocked about everything she told me. My phone vibrated telling me I had a text.

Craig: Take care of her please…

Andy: Of course. Don’t worry

I put my phone back as soon as Anastasia arrived back. She smiled sadly at Ashley and CC.

‘S-sorry about that guys…’

‘Don’t be sorry. We understand,’ CC replied.

‘Well…I’m just going to sleep; I don’t really want to deal with anything right now,’ she walked to the bunks and I could hear her talking to Jinxx and Jake for a second before silence fell again.

*Emily’s POV before Anastasia left*

Anastasia, my best friend, was locked in the bathroom heartbroken. I couldn’t even do anything to help her. We could hear Saviour by Black Veil Brides playing. I knew she was trying not to cut; she always played that song when she felt like cutting.

None of us said much, probably not knowing what to say. Robert turned on the TV and let whatever play. American Dad appeared on the screen and I couldn’t help but smile at it.

We heard the sound of a door opening and Anastasia walked out with makeup smeared on her face. Her phone was still playing music from the bathroom and she looked unfazed by everything. We were about to ask what was going on but she obviously didn’t want any questions. She left the bus leaving us all confused and worried. What if her sadness drove her to the extreme? I couldn’t bear if she died.

A few minutes later I got a text from Ashley telling me that she was on their bus and breaking down. At least I knew she was safe.

~Hey guys! Sorry this chapter is a little crappy :/ I'm starting to get writers block for this story since I'm not obsessed with ETF anymore but the story must go on! I'm not gonna be that kind of person who starts a story and doesn't bother to finish it just coz I don't listen to them AS MUCH as I did (I still do <3)...that pisses me off so much...anyway, thanks for reading, vote and comment! I love to hear feedback even if it's criticism. Goodbye!~
