Until Your Heart Craves In (Chris Motionless/Joshua Balz FF)

Chapter 27 (Layla pov)

~Layla~

Chris sat next to me as I crawled into his lap laying my head on his shoulder; “What’s wrong?” he mumbled as I sighed, “I saw Danny Worsnop today.” He coughed and looked at me. “What?” I was walking Xan and he put his hand on my shoulder and I looked at it was him. He asked me how I was and I said good and I picked up Xan and bolted out of there.” He sighed as he kissed my head, “Next time call me alright.” I nodded as he sighed wrapping his arms around me. “What are we doing tomorrow?” he asked as I sighed, “Uhm setting up for Balz’s proposal at the park by our old house.” He nodded as he looked at me. We crawled into bed as I snuggled into Chris as he played with my hair as I fell asleep.

When I woke in the morning Chris was just looking at me as he sighed softly, “your sister told me.” He said as I looked at him confused, “Told you what?” I said as he sat up. “that you rather have kids first than get married.” I sighed as l looked at him, “is that a bad thing?” he chuckled, “no, not at all but I’m just wondering why?” I sighed as I looked at him, “Because if we have a kid first I think it’ll  just bring us closer and Marriage is to seal the deal.” I mumbled as he chuckled at me. “Sounds great to me,” he said kissing my neck making me moan, “Hey get your asses up!” Ricky yelled as I giggled. I hopped into the shower as I relaxed in the shower I just did my thing as I wrapped a towel around myself as I got out I saw Chris coming in. “Hey.” He mumbled as he kissed me, “Are you alright?” he smiled and nodded, “I’m perfect.” He said as I smiled, “I’m glad I’m sorry I don’t want to get married first…” he shook his head, “Are you sure that, that was all the explanation?” I sighed, “I don’t want to be like my parents get married have three kids then end up like we are now.”

He looked at me, “we would never do that Layla.” I sighed, “I know, now go take a shower stinky,” he chuckled as I went into our bedroom shutting the door and changing into a random pair of skin tight skinnies and a tank top. I went back into the bathroom, “babe I’m going to work.” I said as he sighed, “alright babe I’ll see you this afternoon.” I giggled as I kissed him one last time before I left. I grabbed my purse and left; When I got to the bar I went in, “Hey Marissa I’m here!” my boss came out and smiled, “great you can help the newbie set up!” I nodded as I got busy working as I looked up as I gasped, “Taylor?” I said as she looked up at me, “Holy shit Layla!” “I thought you were a merch girl for Asking?” She sighed, “I just quit I found out that I can’t be apart of that scene anymore after you left.” I nodded, “Trust me I’m clean now too.” She giggled as she hugged me, “well I still smoke a little weed on the side.” I shook my head, “I’m straight edge clean I don’t drink, smoke unless is cigs and I don’t do drugs.” She smiled, “Proud of you!” I laughed, “Danny’s clean too ya know.” I shook my head, “I can’t even be around him without thinking about the past.” She nodded as we got back to work.

When I got off I saw Chris, Ricky and Ghost. “Hey guys!” I said as Chris handed me my dress. “what?” “We just came here from the dry cleaners.” “OH! Okay thanks babe.” I said as I kissed his cheek. “let’s go before my other past catchs up with me.” Chris looked confused, “Hey wait!” Taylor said as I sighed putting my head against Chris’s chest. “Hey Taylor this is my boyfriend Chris, and-” “I know who they are!” she squealed as I groaned. “Look we are in a bit of a hurry.” “Oh okay well maybe we could get coffee sometime.” I shrugged, “Maybe but right now I’m a little busy.” I pushed as she nodded and walked away. “Babe calm down,” “I’m sorry it’s just my past I’m not to happy with it and it’s coming back to kick my ass.” I mumbled as Chris shook his head, “Let’s get home than get to go shopping.” I nodded and sighed. We got home, I dropped my dress off and the guys left there nice clothes at the house. My phone rang as I saw my sister calling, “Yo!” she was just silent, “where are the guys?” “With me except Ryan and Brandon.” Chris whispered, “tell her that they are visiting, family. “Chris says they are visiting family.” She sighed, “Alright what are you doing?” “Shopping with Ricky, Ghost and Chris, they need and Chris and I need stuff for the house.”

She giggled, “what’s so funny?” “Do you and Chris need more condoms?” I rolled my eyes and just didn’t say anything. “Sorry but no I don’t think we have been using any you no my motto!” she made a confused noise, “It feels better without the condom so why have them.” “OH!” I shook my head, “Alright I’m going shopping have with love boy.” She giggled as I hung up.  I shook my head as we got into the car and Ricky drove us to th store; When we got there I raced Chris in as I went straight for the candles as Chris  went with me as the others did their own things. After we got the candles we walked around a bit, till Chris and I saw Taylor talking to Danny and Cam. I froze as Chris mumbled, “you have to face it some time.” I took a deep breath in as we walked up to them, “Hey guys.” I said as Danny, Taylor and Cam looked at me. “Hey I thought you were busy.” Taylor sneared at me, “I am I have to do quick shopping before I head back to my sisters.” She rolled her eyes as I glared at her, “My sister is getting engaged!” I said as she rolled her eyes again as chris brought me closer to him.

“Don’t start a fight we don’t need to be kicked out of here too.” I nodded and sighed, “Look I’m sorry I ran from you Danny, just my past is haunting me right now.” He shrugged, “It’s cool I guess.” I shook my head, “Look danny I’m being serious right now, I am sorry. I’m clean and super clean hell I haven’t touched a drink since my brothers anniversary!” Danny froze up as he nodded, “I’m clean too.” I nodded, “That’s great Danny, I’m glad for you.” He smiled a little, “We have to finish our shopping but maybe the bands could get together.” He nodded, “I’m in town till Friday.” I nodded as Chris and I left, “I hate you for that.” He chuckled.  “I love you too.” I smiled at him as we got a couple other things as we checked out we saw the boys getting escorted out. I shook my head at them as I paid for our stuff and went out to the car, “what did you two do?” They looked at one another, “Well…We had a clothes fight than a food fight than we were yelling ‘GOTTA LOVE THESE!!’ while we had women’s panties throwing them on people.” I shook my head at them, “Guys really.” They laughed as we left back to the apartment.

We watched a couple movies and ate dinner as Brandon and Ryan came in; I went into our room and closet the door changing into my purple dress with silver rhinestones on them. I put my knee high converse zipping the back Chris came in as he kissed me softly, “Don’t go out there the guys are changing.” He said as I nodded, as I went into the bathroom so I could curl my hair, Chris came in without his shirt on as I looked as him as he smirked at me, He kissed my cheek as he did his thing as I giggled and sprayed my hair with hair spray. I did that repeatedly as I sighed; “you okay babe?” I nodded, “I’m great just happy for my sister; I want something too you know.” He nodded as he smiled hugely. I rolled my eyes as I turned my hair curler off as I went into the bedroom put my promise ring on, pet Xan and sat on the bed, “do you need me to go out there?” I nodded as Chris laughed at me as I pouted as he kissed my cheek as he left, “Babe could you come out here and help us load the car.”

I walked out as I helped them load the car as I smiled hugely; we got into the car and left for the park, once we got there the boys played for a little bit before I got the texts. “Guys we need to light the candles they are almost here!!” they ran to me as I lit the candles for everyone as we played Savior by Black Veil Brides as my sister walked over in a beautiful red dress curled hair and she has on her red converse. I giggled as my sister looked at us she got confused than when she looked back at Josh he was on one knee my sister teared up as she looked at him, “Axelia May Charleston, will you marry me?”
