Switch Blade Romance

Lavender Moon

After charles was finished he climbed off Andrew who was laying facedown on the couch dulled and bemused. Charles patted Andrews bare bottom, get dressed baby so we can go outside I've got something to show you. Andrew sat up slowly and started dressing himself. Charles stood there looking at him smiling, Andrew wanted to take something and bash his smug smiling face in. Andrew stood up Charles reached out a hand to him, Andrew looked at Charles hand in disgust." Well baby come on take my hand! Charles stretched his hand out again. Andrew reluctantly took it Charles led him out of the cabin onto the porch. Andrew started shivering, it was freezing outside it was mid January after all Andrew thought to himself. He was only wearing a brown T-shirt and jeans, Charles looked at him you're cold aren't you? Andrew hesitated and then nodded. Come here then I'll keep you warm he put his arm around Andrew and drew him in close. Andrew was suddenly reminded of the Aiden he had known back in Annabelle. Which now seemed like another lifetime ago; he had been sweet and sensitive and loving. That's what made Andrew fall in love with him, but then charles had replaced Aiden. In reality there had actually never been an Aiden it was always charles! He had just been that deceiving that he could pretend to be two people. Charles lead Andrew to a spot in the yard near a woodpile, ok Andrew look up. Tell me what you see Andrew slowly looked up at the sky the moon was big and beautiful, with a blueish haze almost lavender in appearance. Its beautiful Andrew said! Yes it is baby I wanted you to see it, my stepfather always said when the moon looks like that its a sign. Someone's gonna be born or someone's gonna get married, or someone's gonna die. Andrew wheeled around at the last word, Die? Charles you're going to kill me aren't you? Please don't I really don't want to die! Charles face remained calm. He gently placed a finger to Andrews mouth, shush baby no talking right now. Andrew began to cry Charles reached into his pocket, Andrew thought he was going to bring out his switchblade. But instead he brought out two rings; Andrew I want to marry you! I've been in love with you every since that day I saw you in class. And I can't see myself with anyone else, do you feel the same way? Andrew thought to himself" no I don't I couldn't love you. You're a serial killer, and a rapist and God knows what else! But I think I better say yes if I want to live long enough to get away from you. Andrew smiled yes, yes I do charles" Charles face lit up then you'll do me the favor of being my husband? Andrew smiled again. Yes I will OK perfect, charles slid the ring on Andrews right index finger. And then he slid the other ring on his finger, you see this ring Andrew Charles said. Yes baby I do charles nodded these rings mean eternity. They're a bond that can't be broken, no matter what. Charles brought out his switch blade next Andrew flinched back a little bit. Charles what are you doing? Sto..... But before Andrew could finish charles had grabbed his right hand palm up and sliced his hand. Andrew screamed out oh shut up you cry baby it didn't hurt that bad did it; charles took the switch blade to his hand next and sliced his palm and he held their hands together. Andrew saw some of their blood fall into the frost bitten ground. Charles looked at Andrew now we're married to death do we part and maybe even not then! There's apart of me inside of you now Andrew and there's apart of you inside of me. And it will flow there forever and ever now let's go inside and sleep. Tomorrow I'll take you fishing,

Annabelle Texas January 19th 12:45pm.

Lacey stood in the middle of Andrews apartment she didn't know what she was looking for. All she knew was her best friend wasn't there, in the past few months she had lost more friends than anyone should. Especially at twenty one everything in this apartment reminded her of Andrew. The couch where she and Casey and Rachel and Andrew and Wmax had sat on Thursday nights and watched the vwampire Diaries. Or on one occasion Andrew had let her spend the night after she and her roommate had gotten into an argument. And now all of it was gone, the police had just now released Andrew's apartment as a crime scene they had gotten all of the evidence they could get from it. And Andrews parents were supposed to be coming today to take some of Andrews personal things home. It had only been three days since he had been gone but as Rachel had told her. Even if they did find him alive he most likely wouldn't be living here again. Why would he want to? A friend had been murdered right there in the kitchen and another friend had almost lost his life right here in the living room. Max was still in the hospital but he was improving so was Anita she had opened her eyes yesterday. And talked a little Lacey had told her nothing about Andrew being kidnapped! The doctors had said it was best not to at this point. Finally it had hit Lacey why she had come to Andrew's. She was coming to get LaLauries doggy bed, lalaurie was finally being released from the vet today and Lacey had offered to take her home. Lacey walked into the kitchen and saw the chalk outline of Deira's body. Lacey started trembling and finally she broke down crying she sank down against Andrews counter and cried for what seemed like an eternity. Finally she got herself together and walked over and picked up La-lauries bed and started out of the apartment. She looked around one last time it even felt different she thought to herself, it didn't feel like a home anymore it felt like a crypt a tomb or a grave. She began to feel uneasy and then she turned off the lights and walked out of Andrews apartment.
