Being Different Part 16

Anna's pov (day of the concert):
We were on our way to the arena where the concert was at. Tarren and Jacob were walking behind me and Carson and Taylor was walking in front of us. We didn't want to pollute the air, so we just walked to the arena since it was really close to our hotel. Carson and I heard giggling behind us so we turned around and saw Tarren blushing as Jacob whispered something in her ear. Carson and I turned back around and kept walking. A couple minutes later, we were at the arena. We were all wearing twenty one pilots clothing, so we were pretty much identical except facial features. I know Tarren tries to hide it, but I can tell she likes Carson. I'm kinda worried about something happening at the concert, but Tarren's dating Jacob. What if they have a relationship behind my back? I shook my head at the thought and kept walking. When we got to the security guard, we handed him our VIP tickets. We walked to the VIP section and waited for the concert to start. A little while later, the lights started to go down and the show started. The first song they sang was "House of Gold". That song is legit my life. We were closer to the stage than the other fans, so we got a better view. Tyler walked to the edge of the stage and gave us high fives. I started to hyperventilate when Tyler touched my hand. After the concert was over, we went to the meet & greet after and we got our shirts signed. I got a really cute picture with Tyler where he kissed my cheek and I blushed. I set it as my lock screen and I set the picture I got with Josh as my home screen. Tarren went to the bathroom a while ago and she still hasn't come back. I sent Carson to go find her and he hasn't come back yet. I walked to the bathroom area with Taylor and Jacob. As we walked around the corner, I saw something I wished I had never seen. Carson and Tarren were making out by the girls bathroom. I walked up to Carson and ripped him off Tarren. I slapped him across the face and screamed at him as waterfalls were pouring down my face, "I hate you!! We're done!! I don't ever want to talk to you again!!" I turned to Tarren and pointed my finger at her, as I said, "And you. How could you do this to me? You knew how much he meant to me. I knew I never should have told you he liked you. I hope you enjoy your life without me in it!" I walked away trying to calm myself down. Jacob stayed back to deal with the Carson and Tarren deal. I ran to Taylor and gave him a hug. He whispered calming things in my ear to help calm me down. After I calmed down, Taylor texted Jacob and told him we were going back to the hotel room. When we got back, I went straight to the bathroom and locked the door behind me. I grabbed my true best friend and slid the cold metal against my arm.

One for Carson.

One for my life.

One for being ugly.

About the 7th or 8th cut, Taylor started banging on the door and yelling, "Anna!! Unlock this door right now!" I stood up carefully looking at the bloody mess that was from my arm. I walked to the door and unlocked it. Taylor walked up to me and helped me clean up my arm. "Why would you do this, Anna?" "Carson doesn't love me anymore. He's happier with Tarren. I want to go home. Can you take me?" "I wish I could, Anna. But I can't." "Fine. But can you cuddle with me?" "I'll cuddle with you. Oh and Anna?" "Ya." "I like you. Like like like you. In fact I love you. I've always liked you, but I was apparently to stupid to realize it. Just know I'll always be there for you till the day I die. (Get what I did there? No? Okay. I'll be quiet now.) I understand what you're going through. Believe it or not, but once I was bullied and I cut everyday after school. I've been clean for almost four years now. I'm always by your side. I guess what I'm trying to say is, Anna, will you be my girlfriend?" I was beyond shocked I didn't know what to say. THE Taylor Caniff was bullied and cut? I was even more shocked that he asked me to be his girlfriend. I slowly looked up at him and kissed him. I felt him smile through the kiss. I pulled away breaking the kiss and smiled at him. "Is that a yes?" I nodded and cuddled into his chest. The last thing I heard before I fell asleep was, "Goodnight my love."

Taylor's pov :
I can't believe Anna cuts. No one as beautiful as her should have to deal that type of pain. I know what you're thinking 'You were bullied and you cut?' Yeah I was bullied in high school. I used to cut as soon as I got home from school. I cut every day. One day I cut to deep and I had to go to the ER. I quit cutting after that for the fear of people finding out. I can relate to Anna a lot. I finally grew a pair and asked her out. I've had a crush on her for awhile and I was hoping she would say yes. When she didn't say anything, I started freaking out. She slowly looked up at me and kissed me. SHE KISSED ME!! I was really happy. I smiled through the kiss as fireworks flew everywhere. She pulled away from the kiss and I asked her, "Is that a yes?" Wow Taylor. What a great question to ask. Of course it was a yes. She freaking kissed you!! She nodded her head and snuggled into my chest. I whispered in her ear as she dozed off, "Goodnight my love." I wrapped my arms around her waist and fell asleep.

Tarren's pov :
I went to the bathrooms and did my business. I ran into an old friend and talked to her. Carson showed up a little while after. He walked up to me and kissed me. HE KISSED ME!! I didn't know what to do so I kissed back. There were sparks when we kissed. Every time Jacob and I kissed, there weren't any sparks. I felt really bad because Anna was dating Carson, but who cares? Carson was suddenly pulled off me. I opened my eyes and saw Anna slap him. I looked to my right and saw Jacob standing there in shock. I tried to say something, but I couldn't. Anna started screaming at Carson, then she turned to me and pointed her finger at me. She said to me while she was crying, "And you. How could you do this to me? You knew how much he meant to me. I knew I never should have told you he liked you. I hope you enjoy your life without me in it!" I felt really bad. I just lost one of my best friends. Jacob stayed behind. He walked up to Carson and started to punch him. I couldn't do anything I was so shocked. I just stood there staring with my mouth open. Jacob looked at me and shook his head walking off. I fell to the floor crying. I just lost my best friend and my boyfriend. I guess I have Carson. I walked to Carson after I calmed down and helped him up. I took him to the girls restroom and cleaned him up. As I was cleaning the blood from his lip, he asked me, " Tarren? Would you go out with me if I asked you?" I was shocked to be honest. I didn't know what to say so I nodded my head. He smiled and gave me a quick peck. He started to walk towards the exit, when I grabbed his hand stopping him. I asked him, " What are we then? Are we dating or not?" He nodded his head and walked out of the bathroom. I smiled to myself as I washed my hands. I walked out of the bathroom and caught up with Carson. We walked back to the hotel hand in hand. We walked to mine and Anna's room so I could grab my stuff. After we grabbed my stuff, we went back to Carson's room and saw Anna and Taylor cuddling. I would have taken a picture and put it on Twitter, but Anna hates me already enough as it is. We decided to get Carson's stuff and go back to my room. I'm guessing Anna, Taylor, and Jacob are all sharing a room and Carson and I are sharing this one. Oh well. I guess whatever works. Carson and I laid down in my bed and cuddled. Before I fell asleep, I heard him say, " Goodnight beautiful. I love you." I fell asleep with a smile on my face next to the boy I love.
