Erroneous (Andy Biersack)

Chapter Twelve

~Jade Aslenna Simms~

It'd been a week since I was living at Blake's house. I was happy here. I think a little time to myself was what I needed. Blake was hardly ever here. He worked up the street at a tattoo parlor for a guy named Gabe.
Gabe was a nice guy and had offered me a job at the parlor when I was ready. He was in his mid-sixties and had a niece named Lillian, who was my age, that worked at the parlor and also lived upstairs in the little apartment type thing he had built for her.
After, work, which started at eight in the morning, Blake would go see Cassandra, his girlfriend. She didn't like me. It was rare, I had learned, for Blake to get home before ten at night. It didn't matter. I was still happy.
I hadn't talked to Andy all week. Jess and I talk about three times every day. Stella's calls are getting rarer and rarer as time goes on. I had attempted to paint Andy's bright blue eyes quite a few times. All of the drafts had been trashed, though. I couldn't get the right color.
Blake had given me a room in his house and told me I could paint it any color. I decided on the blue of Andy's eyes and had spent hours looking for the correct color. The lady at the store even mixed a few paints as well, but I couldn't find it.
I sighed and glanced down at my phone. Jess was calling. I tapped the device twice, answering and then, putting it on speaker.
"Hey wifey!" Jess cheered.
"Hey!" I laughed.
I cut the sandwich I was making in half.
"What's up?"
"Just making lunch," I said, tossing a small bag of Cheetos in the on my plate.
"Fun, fun. CC's paying some fan to make him a headband with a unicorn horn on it."
I laughed. Man, did I miss all the boys.
"Jade?" I heard.
"I'm in here!" I yelled.
Blake walked in the room, holding a his phone.
"Gabe let me off for the rest of the day," Blake told me, plopping down beside me and grabbing one half of my sandwich.
I picked up my phone, "Jess, I'll call you later, wifey."
"Alright, talk to you later. Bye wife!" she responded, hanging up.
Blake and I watched TV for the longest time, snacking and talking. This went on for hours.
It was going on midnight when I finally fell asleep.

-Next Day-
~Andy Biersack~

I sighed as the guys walked in the bus.
"Ashley, have you heard from Jade?" Jake asked.
"No, but she's only an hour away from here. Like where she's staying," Ashley replied.
"What?" I perked up.
"Yeah, Blake's house is about an hour away from here," Ash told me.
"I'm going to see her," I mumbled, standing up. I knew the address- Jade had written it down on a piece of paper and accidently left it here.
I pulled on my jacket, grabbed the keys, and bolted out the bus door.
The red Camaro rental car sat in the parking lot we were in. I jogged over and quickly got in.
With the address set in my phone GPS, I began to drive.

~Jade Aslenna Simms~

I was walking to the tattoo parlor when a red Camaro pulled up beside me. I instinctively kept walking. I heard the door shut and I quickly turned down the alley I had to go down to get to the back door of the parlor, which I had been instructed to enter through. After walking for a few seconds, a hand covered my mouth and I was pushed against a crimson brick wall. I tried to scream and wriggle out of the person's grip. My squirming and muffled cries had their own effect, and I was released.
"Damn Batgirl, you're supposed to be fearless. What the hell was all that?"
I had turned to run away but, turned right back around when I heard those words echo through the dark alley in a masculine, deep voice that could only belong to one person.
"Andy," I breathed without even looking up. I knew that voice.
I ran the distance to Andy I had gotten away and jumped on the blue eyed boy I had grown to love. He stumbled back into the wall as my legs wrapped around his waist and my arms around his neck. Andy, being the immature boy he is, pretended to drop me, letting go of the hold he had on my thighs. I shrieked and Andy laughed, quickly catching my body, as he had let go.
I tightened my grip on him for that very reason, as Andy and I had an unestablished staring contest. I, of course, won when Andy broke his gaze and leaned in to kiss me. And that he did. He kissed me until I was forced to pull away, gasping for air.

"I missed that," Andy chuckled.
"I missed you," I stated.
"I missed you more than you can ever imagine, Jade. Please don't ever leave me again. I am begging you. This past week has been miserable. Nights have grown sleepless and I've been spraying your perfume everywhere. Ashley walks on the bus and pretends to die because the whole damn bus reeks of Liz Earle Botanical Essence." He said the name of my perfume with a French accent, causing me to laugh. "I missed that laugh, babe. Jess is like a lost puppy during our shows without you. She gets so bored, she convinces our driver to let her drive the bus. She took it to McDonald's the other day and we had no bus when we were done because Jess was in the McDonald's drive-thru."
I laughed again and Andy pecked my lips. He smiled at me and I cupped his cheek, running my thumb over the corner of his lips.
"Andy," I said, "I love you. I swear I will never ever leave you again. Things will go back to the way they were. I'll come back on tour, Jess will stop going to McDonald's, Danny and I will start doing merch again. It'll all go back to normal and I'll be back."
I, having the height advantage, for a change, leaned down and kissed Andy. When we broke apart, Andy put me down and grabbed my hand.
"C'mon babe. I have to go to the parlor for a few minutes," I said, pulling Andy down the alley with me. He followed me, keeping a tight hold on my hand.
I pushed open the heavy back door of the parlor and walked through to the front.
"Hey Fruit Loop," Gabe smiled at me from his desk, which was positioned right at the door.
"Hey Gabe, this is Andy," I smiled.
"Your boyfriend that you never shut up about?" Gabe asked, standing up.
My cheeks turned a dark red color as Andy laughed, "Aww, Jade."
Gabe stuck his hand out and Andy reached for it and shook it.
"Hello Andy, I'm Gabe."
"Andy."
"GABE!" I heard Lillian yell from the front. "YOUR THREE O'CLOCK IS HERE!"
"Excuse me," Gabe mumbled.
Blake walked back a few seconds later.
"Hey Blakie," I smiled.
"Hey Jade, who's this?" he asked, throwing the rag he was holding on Gabe's desk.
"This is Andy," I told Blake, swinging Andy and I's intertwined hands back and forth. Andy looked down at me and smiled.
"Blake, Cassandra called," Lillian said, walking into Gabe's office. "Said something about-"
Lillian looked up, "Oh my God."
"What's wrong?" Blake asked.
"You're Andy Biersack," she gasped.
"Hi," Andy smiled. I let go of Andy's hand and he gave Lillian a hug.
"Be careful babe," I warned. "She might faint on you."
Andy laughed and Lillian rolled her eyes. Andy grabbed my hand again and his phone rang. I swiftly grabbed it from his back pocket.
"What?" I answered.
"Uhmm, Andy are you sick? You sound..." the person said. It was Ashley.
"Is this better?" I asked, deepening my voice dramatically.
"Okay," Ash laughed, "who the hell is this?"
"It's your bestest friend," I replied, my voice still deep. Andy was looking at me smiling.
"Jade? Is that you, princess?" Ash asked.
"HI!" I yelled.
"No need to bust my eardrums, Jade," Ashley winced.
"Oops," I smiled.
''Can I talk to Andy?"
I handed the phone to Andy and wrapped my arms around him. He wrapped one arm around me as he talked.
"Can't we just cancel tonight's show?" Andy asked. I smiled and buried my face into his neck. He sighed and told Ashley bye.
"Noo," I whined, tightening my grip on him, knowing he was about to leave.
Andy sighed, "Babe."
"Noo,'' I repeated.
"Jade," he pleaded, "I have to go, baby."
"Andy," I whined. "Don't."
"What am I supposed to do, Jade? Let the band perform without me?" he asked.
I nodded into his neck.
Andy tried to pry me off of him, resulting in me squeezing him tighter.
"Babe," he said, running his hand through my hair. "I have to go."
I shook my head and Andy sighed, "Fine. If you're not letting go, you're coming with me."
He lifted me off the ground and looked at me.
"Okay, okay," I gave in.
He put me back on the ground and kissed my head.
"I love you," I said as he pulled away.
He smiled, "I love you."
And just like that, he was gone. I wouldn't see him for a while, I thought. I sighed and Lillian smiled at me, "You know Jade, all I ever want in life is for someone to look at me the way he looks at you. He loves you, a lot."
"I love him more than anyone could ever understand. He is literally the best thing that has ever happened to me. I love him so much."
"So does Juliet," Lillian said.
And she was right.
