Industry || Pete Wentz

Chapter 11

Ok so ik i said i wasn't going to continue but i kinda just wanna get rid of this out of my drafts so yeah here is a half bad and half ok chapter that i started like a year ago so yeah also i changed the actor for Harley which there was no point to but i did it anyway so it's now Michael Fjordback i'm pretty sure he was the young Peter Hale in teen wolf and i thought he suited the character better so yeah

"Vi, long time no see." Pete grins at me, Pete's smile was contagious, as much as I was feeling down, Pete could always impact my mood just for a little while. I have avoided Ryan since I told him and he has avoided me, we'd catch eyes sometimes. None of my band would talk to me, we had to act all happy on stage, the media picked up on this and wrote countless articles suggesting that there is a possible split or that Harley and I split up. I had been spending most of my time hanging around Andy and sleeping in his bunk while he slept in mine, I've been avoiding my childhood friends for over a week now.

"I saw you this morning when you threw water over me." I roll my eyes, as I walk off while he follows close behind me.

"Well it's too long for someone not see Pete Wentz, I bet you're feeling weakened by every second I'm gone." He brags, Pete Wentz's ego is bigger than anyone's I've ever met before as I've told him countless times before, he always claims that I have a thing for big ego's but I guess that's just his ego talking.

"Sure it is, now go tune my bass for me since you love me so much." I bat my eyelashes at him in hoping for him to actually agree.

"Hmm, I don't know what's in it for me?"

"A blow job."

"Really?" He gasps.

"Of course not, you freak." I squealed in disgust, as if he actually thought I'd do that for him, he has another thing coming. It was nice to laugh but I can never feel like I mean it. I don't want to be one of those girls who wallow in self pity and talk about their problems all the time but right now; I don't feel myself. I'm not sure if I will ever feel like myself again.

"Worth a shot." Pete just shrugged, flicking his hair over his forehead with a small smile on his face. His aroma made me feel at peace, he was so endearing and I hated it. I hated how he could kiss me and I would like it, no one has ever made me feel like this and I hate it.

"So the party is today." I sighed, I didn't want to do it. I couldn't act happy about the album when I didn't feel it. This has been the shittiest 2 years in my entire existence, and I can't remember the last time I generally felt a bit of happiness. 

"Indeedy doo, are you excited? I mean I've listened to the album about 9 times and I'm obsessed it's great. I'm worried if FOBs album can even compete with your's." Pete rambled on about the album, in my eyes I didn't think it was all that great. I smiled at Pete, to show that i'm grateful for his gratitude.

"What's your favourite song from the album?" I asked in curiosity, personally I really like Ignorance or Stella but it's always nice to know what other people think.

"I love Ignorance, and I know it's like the only one other people have listened to because it's your first single, but lyrically it's mesmerising. It speaks to me on level. Wow I sound so deep and stupid but yeah I really like Ignorance I guess." Ever since the kiss, we tried to go on as normal but Pete just had random spells of rambling and getting all timid and shy. I think he was embarrassed or something because I know he didn't mean the kiss and turning him down must have damaged his ego a tad.

"So Vee, what's your favourite song on Folie a Deux. I know you have the demo, Andy told me." Pete grinned as I blush slightly. It was true, I stole the demo from management because I was so obsessed with the new album.
