When you Can't Sleep at Night (Of Mice & Men Austin Carlile Fanfic)

√ Chapter 5- Faith Healer

Hi Guys i didn't mean to neglect you!;^; so that GIF over there is just precious. That smile is great.

~~~

Please say yes. Please say yes.

"... Well I Don't know. We've met before, and I just... I-I just...."

"Go on." Aaron sounded intrigued yet irritated. Tears had begun to fill my hope filled eyes, because I don't want to hear this indirectly. I began to sob quietly, minding my sobs. Mel leaned into me and draped her arms around my shaking shoulders.

"sshhhhhhh... Lyric what's wrong?" I stared into Mel's eyes intensly.

"I don't want to hear this...If he does...love me then i want him to hear it from directly." My whispers began to raise with each exhale of air. My lungs constricted inside my chest. I wiped he blurry ears away and released Mel's body. I picked myself up off the floor and sighed a breath of relief. I felt better. It sounds weird but it was true. Mel's innocent voice interrupted my thread of thoughts.

"The Avenged boys are going o be here soon are you ready to go out there yet?" I raised my head and proudly spoke.

"Yeah I guess I am." I smiled, proud of myself from trying my hardest to over come my habit of crying.

"That's my girl! I'm really proud of you." I smiled and a pale blush crept across my plump cheeks. Mel snaked her arms around my torso once more before she nodded and released me. She began to twist her body away and walk toward the door, placing her hand on the knob. she stopped for one last aside.

"Austin's a cutie...I hope he will treat you right." With a wink and a simple pull she was out the door and in the other room. What she said was just too faint for me to make out but it probably wasn't that important. A small grin pulled at the corners of my lips. I began to proceed toward the door and walk into the other room. Just as i entered the small lobby, he avenged boys had just arrived and he Of Mice guys had entered my Mel's "office" to discuss the desired sound of the new album. I thought i saw Austin just wink at me but i mus be seeing weird things. I shook i off and greeted the Avenged guys.

"Sup ya"ll?" I greeted them with a sweet smile.

"Ya'll? who is teaching my little Lyre these terrible greetings?! Is it Mel because I will smack that bitch if it is!" I snorted at the response of my greeting. Today will be a good recording day!

~~~

After a long day of fucking up recording with laughing from the boys I was exhausted. I did have a good time though, the boys are just hilarious. As was laughing at one of Johnny's jokes. I snorted only making he rest of the guys begin to laugh.

"Hey Lyre go get me a water." I smirked and raised my brows.

"Bitch please, I ain't no water boy!"

"You are right, you're a watergirl...Ms. BeerBitch!" Shadows said blandly as a joke. I pretended to sigh and act hurt, I began to smile and reached over to the mini fridge grabbing the handle and opening it. I reached in and grabbed a smart water. As I was about toss it to him, I felt a gaze burn into the back of my head. I turned my body completely around to glance at a gazing Austin. His stare was intense. I felt a heavy blush kiss my cheeks for the first time ever. His brown eye appeared as if hurt. Was He jealous? My eyes must be deceiving me again.

"Hey Lyre you going to give me my water or....what are you staring at?" Shadows had gotten up and began waving his hand in front of my face. I snapped back to what I was doing.

"Sorry I thought I saw something.." I didn't completely lie. I pulled a smile revealing my natural white teeth. He looked a me concerned but probably shrugged it off after realizing I wasn't lying because I really thought I saw Austin jealous. My heart almost skipped a beat at the thought. Shadows grabbed the water and thanked me smiling. I smiled back pretending to be oblivious of the gaze that lay upon me once more. After another minute it dropped. I sighed in relief not listening to the Avenged boys.

"Doesn't that sound like a great Idea Lyric?!" My head snapped toward them.

"I'm sorry, what did you say?" I didn't mean to ignore the boys. I felt embarrassed being so out of it, with my head in the clouds.

"We were just talking about how when the record is released we should throw a grill out concert with some of the other signed bands!" My eyebrows raised hat actually sound like that would be a good time. I smiled flashing my pearly whites again.

"That sounds like a great idea! I will talk to David my boss about it!" They glanced hopeful happy smiles into my direction. I loved these guys so kind and full of energy!

"oh crap, we Have to leave and meet up for an interview. Bye Lyre! Thanks Today was great!" They all came up and embraced me into a big bear hug. They let go as Shadows ruffled my hair and began to wave as he rotated his body toward the door. I smiled and began to wave back as the other boys turned to him and said their "goodbyes". I chuckled and began to bring myself to my boss's office. I walked in abruptly to find David having a meeting with the Of Mice Guys. An Awkwardness filled the air around everyone.

"Sorry I didn't knock...I will come back once you guys are finished." I begun to turn until I was interrupted by my boss's voice.

"Oh no Lyric it's fine we were just finishing up! Did you need something?" David was a kind hearted gentle guy, newly engaged to his beautiful, considerate fiancé Juliana. I grinned and began to explain what the guys and I thought would be a good idea. "That is a great idea Lyric! We could sell tickets to see the bands, meet them, and give them a sneak peek on what we are working on with newly signed bands!" I was flattered that David liked the thought of a concert cook out! I smiled genuinely and briefly moved my sight to Austin who had begin to faintly blush and grin winking at me one more time. I moved my gaze back to David and began to take my leave. I nodded excited and said my goodbyes.

My stomach filled with butterflies. I felt beautiful and majestic all at the same time, it was great!
