I heard the garage open, meaning that my mom was home. I went into the kitchen and grabbed something to eat and waited for her to come in. When she walked in she looked as though she had an even worse day than i did. She sat at the table and put her head on her arms. Her short red-brown hair was able to cover her face enough to where i couldn’t see her face. “Mom, whats going on?” i asked.
She sat up and looked at me. “I was told today that and old friend of mine from when we lived in Florida is dying.” she said. “Oh no! Im so sorry mom.” i sat down next to her. “I need to go down for a while to be with her.” she told me. “How long will you be there?” i asked. “I don’t know. I want to be there for her in her final days, but who knows how long that will take!” she said, then she looked at me. “I need to leave tomorrow. Do you think you can manage by yourself while im gone?” she asked. i looked at her. “I think ill be OK, it is me your talking to.” i said. That made her smile. “OK, well i need to pack, and get a plane ticket. Ill leave you some money for emergencies.” She got up from the table and went to her room and slammed the doors.
I felt so bad for her. But i also did wonder how long i would have to be by myself. I get up from the table and grabbed some grapes from the fridge. I hated seeing my mom upset.
I went back in my room and logged on to my computer and pulled up Microsoft Word and finish typing some of my fan-fiction stories about Andy. They are really silly and kind of cheesy. But i know some people would appreciate them. I log onto Facebook and go onto the BVB Soldiers group and post my finished story. I got a lot of comments on it pretty fast saying things like “that was really good, i liked it!” stuff like that. I logged off and laid on my bed again. This time i drifted to sleep. Thank god it was Friday. I had one week of school to do and then the concert next weekend.
*******ONE WEEK LATER********
The week went by sooo slow! I had at least one test in every class this week, and Rachel was still saying shit about me. Now whose the one being immature?? Anyway, i try not to think about it because tomorrow night would be the night i have been waiting my whole life for: the Black Veil Brides concert and meet up! I called Lauren to make sure we were still on for the show, she said of course and that i could spend the night at her house after the show. I thought that was great because i was tired of being alone every night. My mom was still gone in Florida with her friend, and who knows how much longer!
I went in my room and laid on the bed and turned on the TV. I was so excited for the show i don’t even know if ill be able to sleep tonight! But i probably should, i didn’t want to go to the concert all tired. I watched pretty much every episode of Family Guy and Pretty Little Liars i had on my DVR, and before i knew it, it was 11:30. I got up and took a nice hot shower, with the past couple of weeks i have had, it was just what i needed. I got out and put on my usual sleep attire(i.e white tank and black shorts) and drifted to sleep.
I had a dream about Andy. I showed up to the meet and greet and it was just us there. He reached his hand out and i took it. It felt like we were floating. It was just the two of us. We were just talking. He leaned in to kiss me, but right before our lips touched, something happened to where i stopped floating. I called out to Andy, but he didn’t even try to reach for me. I just kept falling.
When i woke up, i was sweating. I wiped some of the sweat from my neck and looked at the clock. it was 7:00 AM. Just thirteen more hours before i would go to the concert. But i hope that the dream i had wont come true, and i hoped something better would come out of me meeting Andy.
I looked at my phone. I had a text from Lauren and a missed call from my mom. Why was my mom calling me at 7 am for? I looked at the text from Lauren. It said that i should come over to her house a couple hours earlier so we could do our makeup all crazy like most fans do at Black Veil Brides concerts. I texted back saying “definitely, ill bring my makeup case.” I decided to lie back in bed to see if i could get any more sleep. And boy i sure did. I slept until about 11. When i finally decided to get my ass out of bed, i looked through my closet to see what i should wear. I decided on my White BVB t-shirt with stripes and the whole band on it with purple graphics on it, skinny jeans and my purple tye-dye converse. I got dressed and texted Lauren. Since i didn’t want to be alone for the next several hours, i asked if i could hang with her until the concert. She said yes and i got in my car and drove over to her house with my purse and makeup case in hand.
