"Are we all ready to go?" Andy asked, walking into our room with a towel hung loosely around his hips.

"Yea, everything's ready... Apart from you." I replied, zipping up the back pack that held my camera and a few lenses. It also held things like a few books, my sketchpad and my phone with earphones for my entertainment on the way over to the UK.

"You're taking your camera and stuff even though you're not taking pictures?" Andy questioned, flicking through the remaining clothes in the wardrobe as he ran a hand through his damp hair.

"Actually, I will be taking pictures. Set You Free is the opening act so I get to take pictures of you afterwards." I smirked as I took out a batman shirt for Andy to wear. His mouth curled up into a smile and his dazzling eyes crinkled slightly. I took in every detail of his face as he dipped his head to peck my lips quickly. I still wasn't used to being able to have Andy all to myself. We had been together for about four months and we were getting along perfectly well. We argued sometimes, usually about stupid things like who put the empty carton of milk back in the fridge or who left the downstairs lamp on before going to bed. Most of the time, they ended with us dissolving into laughter after realising how stupid we sounded. Of course, there had been the occasional serious argument when Andy became angry because of one of my breakdowns. He always told me that he wasn't angry at me, but at himself for not telling me how 'perfect' I am often enough. I shake my head and laugh at that point, pulling him in for a hug.

The point is, I'd seen Andy at his worst, and I still want to be with him for his best. Sometimes he does get ridiculously angry with things out of his control. Sometimes he gets upset because he wants Black Veil Brides to be perfect, but can't quite see the perfection yet. Sometimes he becomes brooding and thoughtful after reading a hateful comment on the Internet or a tweet from a fan telling him that they don't approve of our relationship. But despite all of that, I love him. I love him so much. Even when I'm calming him down, or trying to coax him into talking; I love him. Those rough times just make the happy times better: more enjoyable. And I'm sure he feels the same way.

"Are you okay, baby?" he asked me, the slanted eyebrow on his face giving me the impression that he was slightly confused.

"I'm fantastic. I can't believe I'm going on tour!" I grinned at Andy and hugged him, "can we leave for the airport now? I want to spend some time with Olivia, Leo and Sammi before leaving. I'm guessing that they'll be there."

"Yea, sure." he replied, slipping on his shirt and tying a few bandanas to his belt loops. I laughed at him slightly and picked up my large and stupidly heavy suitcase after slinging my back pack on my shoulder.

"First tour ever, here I come." I muttered as we left our house for the next two months.

"Hayley, I'm gonna miss our conversations so much! Promise me that you'll call all the time and stuff!" I hugged Olivia again. We were boarding the plane in a while and everyone was a bit teary.

"Of course! I'm going to miss you so much!" I smiled. I glanced to my side to notice Dan looking slightly disgruntled at the fact that he wasn't getting much attention.

"And I'm gonna miss you too, Andy!" she reached up and ruffled his recently-cut hair. He decided that he didn't like his hair being so long and it was getting a bit dreaded and out of control.

Everybody continued saying goodbye with sad smiles. After about another five minutes, Black Veil Brides and Set You Free were on the plane, getting ready to take off.

"Have you ever been on a plane before?" CC asked me. He was sat in the window seat next to me and I was sat next to Andy.

"No, I swam to America." I told him sarcastically.
