Metal Saved Me

Chapter 10

Padge's P.O.V.

The lads all left as visiting times were over, my heart just sank. For me not to play the gig tomorrow it just wasn't in my nature to leave fans down but what choice did I have. But none of that shit compares to what my baby has being put through, she lost her home, her belongings. her life's work. If this was Adam that done this, it was pretty fucking low, he could of killed all of us in the house. But hey he is a selfish asshole, why would he really care?

Moose's P.O.V

I'm lying here on my bunk trying to get my head together, just thinking I could have died tonight only for Padge, I truly owe him my life. My heart was breaking for Poppy too, she lost it all in one moment of madness by some worthless prick. Hope he or whoever it was gets what's coming to him/them.

Matt's P.O.V

Poppy was doing alot of tossing and turning, she managed to sleep so I presumed it was a nightmare. She started saying no, no, no in her sleep, then she suddenly sat up, all sweaty and screaming her lungs out. Olivia, Jai and Moose jumped out of their bunks to see if she was alright.

Matt: Poppy its OK, we are here.

Poppy: Sorry was just a really bad nightmare

Jai: Don't be sorry hun, what was the nightmare?

Poppy: I saw Adam and he had managed to get into the house with all of us there, tied us all up and doused us in petrol and set fire to us

Moose: Fucking hell

Matt: Come here!

With that I pull her in for a hug while Jai went and made her a cup of tea, she was truly scared and who could blame her, but fuck her dream was insane!

Jai came with the tea and we agreed that we would not be sleeping tonight at all, so we got up and took Poppy for a walk. It was now 8am so we took her out for some breakfast as soon as we all washed ourselves up, we all had black soot all over our faces and arms. Poppy had no clothes as they all burned with her house, luckily the guys in Halestorm couldn't sleep either and were outside their bus, Lzzy gave a few bits to Poppy to wear from her suitcase. Poppy was so grateful.

Lzzy's P.O.V

I could not sleep for the life of me, none of us could, tonight has being one of the most horrible experiences ever. We all got up and had some coffee, we were covered in soot, so we washed ourselves up and decided to find somewhere for breakfast, when we got outside the bus, the Bullet guys were coming out too. Matt mentioned Poppy had nothing to wear so I gave him a few things from my suitcase for her to wear, she was so grateful to me once she came out dressed. We headed to a nearby diner and ordered breakfast but if we were honest, we more or less played with our food. Visiting times were not for another 2 hours at the hospital, so Poppy said she wanted to go back to the house. We all agreed to take her. So we got a minibus cab to take us back to the scene of the crime. Neighbours were out and when we all got out of taxi, the neighbours all rallied around Poppy and gave their deepest apologies and offered there houses for a place to stay, she thanked them all but she didn't wanna be a burden. Everything she loved dear was gone, she walked through the remains of her house to see if she could salvage anything. She did find a metal box with some knic naks in it, seemed like nothing but to her it was something, she also saw her chest that was at the end of her bed, she opened it and smiled, we all go over to her and we see she has some clothes, a camera and a bit of money she was saving in it. It was something and better than nothing. Matt helped by carrying the chest out of the rubble.
