Warped tour, the one place where one could be themselves and not feel like they are getting judged by every pair of eyes they come across.
The hot summer air lay heavily on my shoulders but the excitement pulsed through my veins. Reality finally kicking me in the face saying, 'cheer the f*ck up! You're about to see black veil brides!'
This thought brought a wide grin to my face. I was about to be face to face with my favourite band. I've been waiting here at the barricades since about 12:30 in the afternoon. Black veil brides were scheduled on at 5:00 and it was currently 4:30. I was watching pierce the veil who I do enjoy, who doesn't love a bit of mexicore every now and then?
(A/N: Australia doesn't have warped tours so I'm very sorry if I get any of this wrong)
Although, I had been standing in the hot sun for a good four hours and I wasn't feeling too great. But the thought of seeing my favourite band had me feeling like I needed to hold on just a little bit longer.
Sweat beads were starting to roll down my forehead at this point, but I was still bobbing my head along to Hell Above. 4:50, ten minutes to go. My heart was pounding in my chest. As soon as Hell Above had finished, Vic wrapped up their set.
I jumped up and down, trying to get some feeling back into my legs as I had been standing here for quite awhile. This is dedication for you.
So close, come on Black Veil Brides, I don't think my legs will hold me up for much longer.
"WHO'S READY TO ROCK MOTHERFUCKERS" the sudden yell made me jump, but I felt all giddy inside from the sound of Andy's voice. CC had come out first, holding his drumsticks above his head. Next came out Jinxx, Jake, Ashley and then finally Andy.
I screamed as loud as I possibly could as they started the intro to Wretched and Divine. Andy scanned over the crowd, looking at all the excited faces of mostly young teenagers smiling right back at him. Somehow, in the mix of all the chaos going around, those ocean blue eyes managed to bore into my own. Time had stopped, everything had slowed down for a second and it was just me looking into the eyes of Andrew Biersack. My god, someone pinch me.
The sun had gone down some but I was still feeling the consequences from making myself endure the heat all day. Try and stabilise yourself, come on. I felt myself start to sway, all I heard was 'security!' and then it all went black. Nothing, I felt absolutely nothing.

"Are you sure she's going to be okay?" I heard a male voice speak.
"Heatstroke, in some cases, can be pretty serious. But this young lady here just needs a lot of water and some rest"
"Okay, thank you"
"No problem, you take care of her now"
"I will" and then I felt myself start to get lifted up into someone's arms. I wanted to open my eyes and protest, I don't know who this guy is, where he's taking me. My eyes start to squint open and I see a flash of black hair, and then it was as if I had died and gone to heaven as I looked up at the face of Andy f*cking Biersack. That sight alone was enough to make anyone pass out, again.

Hopefully, this will be the last time I awaken. But as I open my eyes, I'm met with complete darkness. Anyone's natural reaction would be to wonder where the hell they are, mine is to flail my arms and legs around and come into contact with the hard ground.
"Ouch" I groan. I hear the thud of approaching footsteps and a curtain rips open. I look up at the person standing above me, wow I wasn't dreaming.
"Are you okay?" his deep voice rings through my ears like beautiful music. His hand grips onto my arm and lifts me up carefully. "Uh, yeah, I'm okay. Thank you" I say appreciatively.
"It's no problem at all, I'm Andy" he says to me. "Well, I guess you already knew that since you were at the set today" he chuckles to himself.
"Yeah, I'm Y/N and I am kind of disappointed that I didn't get to see the entire set" I look down at my feet. "Y/N, that's a really pretty name. There's always next time" Andy smiles. "I guess so" I say nonchalantly.
"Come sit" Andy says, grabbing my hand and pulling me into the lounge of what seems to be a tour bus. I take a seat onto the black leather couch, the cool texture lowers my body temperature dramatically. Andy sits across from me.
"So how come you were in the first aid tent? I was kind of listening but then I think I passed out again" I laugh. Andy laughs lightly before replying with, "I saw you fall so I called to security to take you to first aid, then after the set I came to see if you were alright. Then, I just decided to take you back to the bus to get some rest" Andy's cheeks seem to flush a deep red colour, which I found adorable.
"Thank you, I really appreciate it" I smile gratefully. Andy smiles back, his blue eyes shining in the dim light of the bus. "So how are you feeling anyway?" he says, concerned.
"I feel alright, I'll survive"
"In that case, would you like to go get something to eat? You look like you need it" Andy jokes. I laugh and nod, "but what about Juliet?"
"That's over and done with, don't worry about that"
"Okay, then yes. I would love to" I grab out my phone to text my mum that I'll be home a little late. "I probably look like death though" I sigh, pulling up the camera on my phone to check my appearance.
"You look beautiful, Y/N" Andy smiles sweetly. I offer a grin in return, this is the best night of my life so far.
Andy and I eventually emerge from the tour bus and into the warm night air. "Where shall we go" I say, swinging my arms back and forth. "I saw this little restaurant on the corner as we drove into the venue" Andy suggests.
"Sounds good to me!" with that, Andy grabs my hand and leads me towards the restaurant. Who would of thought that passing out in the middle of a concert would of gotten me to hold hands with Andy Biersack and go to dinner with him. Good things really can happen to absolutely anyone.
I'm never going to lose hope again.
***
As we ate, Andy and I talked about everything! I feel like I've known him for years. I have had many people on social media tell me how much of an asshole he is in person but boy, were they wrong. Andy is the biggest sweetheart I've ever met and I'm so glad. I was always afraid of meeting my idols in fear of them not turning out how I thought they would. But Andy, he is everything I have ever imagined.
"Wait, wait, wait! So you tripped over your cat trying to ask Juliet out on a first date?! How awkward can you get?" I laugh so loudly that people at other tables were glaring at me. Andy laughs too, "yep that's me, awkward Andy"
"You know," Andy begins, "you have a really cute laugh" he smiles nervously. "Yours is cuter" I blush. Andy grins and grabs my hand across the table. "This will sound so cliche, but I feel like I've known you my whole life" Andy says looking down at his lap.
"Andy," slowly those bright, alluring eyes look up to gaze into my own average orbs. "I feel the same" I smile. Andy smiles widely, "I'm glad"
***
That was our first date, first memory, first everything. That night was the start of a beautiful relationship and I wouldn't take it back for the world.
Who knew I would be grateful for fainting?
