Andy Biersack fanfiction - Accidents Happen *COMPLETED* （≧∇≦）

Chapter 36 - Curiosity

--Tessa's POV--

Vic and Sammi were sitting on the couch, Sammi's slumped figure trying to talk as she sobbed. Vic was looking down at her with sympathy and rubbing her back, almost as you would a small child. Vic snapped his head towards me and gently moved Sammi's head from his leg. "I, uh, I can come back..." I said quietly, stuttering over every word. "No, maybe you can help actually....She doesn't have anywhere to vent and uhm," Vic itched his nose and placed his hands on his hips. "She's been here for three hours. I think she's gonna sleep here..." He seemed a little unsettled. I nodded awkwardly. "Did you hear what happened between them?" I asked. Vic nodded awkwardly and looked back at Sammi. "It sounded horrible..." I trailed off and Vic led me over to Sammi. "Hey Sammi...You remember Tessa?" Vic asked in a low, comforting tone. Sammi sat up a little and wiped her nose with a crinkled tissue. She nodded. I knelt down to her level. "I just thought maybe....I know what you're going through and, I'm here if you need to...talk." I said, looking up at Vic. Vic touched my back slightly as if to wish me good luck and disappeared behind the curtains, leaving me and Sammi alone. I sat down criss cross applesauce on the couch across from her. "Now first...I know it's really hard, but I need you to tell me exactly what happened...You don't have to go into detail, I just need to understand what happened." I said gently. She nodded.

--Sammi's POV--

It was easier to talk to Tessa, she was so motherly. I opened up my mouth to speak.

"I-I don't rem-remember much...I d-don't remember his f-fa-face. I just remember being sort of trapped in a cramped, dark area and he only said one thing but...I don't remember it." I said, barely able to push down the sobs. "Did you tell him to stop at all?" Tessa asked, looking sad and weary. I wondered what all happened to her, and what made Andy do all that in the first place. "I think I tried b-but, I c-couldn't s-speak very well..." I said. She didn't speak, so I spoke for her. "Wh-What happened between you and Andy?" I asked quietly. It was probably a rude question, but I was in to poor a shape to care. "Right now? We're actually, uhm, going out. Again..." Tessa said, a little smile as she talked about him. "I mean...why did he do all that to you?" She tensed up, and for a moment I thought she was going to remain silent, but to my suprise she opened up her mouth.

"His friend died, to put it simply, and he dealt with it...horribly. It started out with a couple drinks after work, but it escalated so quickly I...I didn't have time to help him. He became addicted to alchohal and drugs and...everything. It wasn't just about his friend dying anymore. It was anger at himself, but with no will to stop. He started, uhm..." I noticed tears in his eyes. "Hitting me...and that escalated too, and I didn't get help because I kept telling myself it won't happen again, that one night he'll come home sober and it'll all change...And then one night, he..." To my suprise, Tessa let out a sob. She quickly regained herself and continued to tell. "He forced me down and...I found out he'd gotten me pregnant a while after that and I ran away. " She finally finished.

My own story seemed like nothing now compared to the long, heart wrenching suffer she'd endured. "I'm sorry...Thank you, for everything....I think I'm going to try to talk to Jinxx later." I said, feeling bad I had pushed Tessa on the tender subject. "That's a good idea. I'm sleeping here tonight, are you?" She said, wiping away a final tear. I shook my head. "I've already been enough of a burden. Truly Tessa, thank you." I said, beginning to get up. I wanted to hurry out before Vic came in. It was awkward knowing he'd heard all that.

--Tessa's POV--

Sammi bid me goodbye and I pushed the curtain aside to see Vic scrolling on his phone. "How'd it go?" He asked. "Good." I said, memories still fresh in my head. "That's good...Glad she could get some closure." He said. I nodded. "You wanna get a drink tonight? I'll pick you up at 8?" He asked, seeing I was upset. Even though I don't drink much, it sounded nice to go on a friend-to-friend date. "Okay...I won't say anything to Andy, I know he'll get his panties in a bunch." I said, laughing lightly. "Okay." Vic said, laughing along with me. "See you at 8?"

"See you at 8."
