I learned a lot of things over the time that lunch started and ended. Locker D-23's name is actually Gerard. A couple of times I would catch him staring at me. He would just wink in response. I'd blush and avoid his gaze, looking down at my hands.
Another piece of information I learned was Cat-Eyes' name. Ivy. For some reason, I thought it suited her. Lily told me about her run-in with Ivy. She said that she practically bit a kid's head off for accidentally elbowing her. Lily also said the kid was Johnnie. I felt bad for him. He didn't seem like the person to hurt somebody on purpose.
Andy repeatedly called me "Blue", even when I corrected him, stating that my name is Quinn. He ignored me and I acted pissed off at him but I secretly liked the fact that Andy had a nickname for me.
Lily, of course, brought up Ryder one time and how I'd had a crush on him for forever. I blushed fiercely, especially since she brought him up in front of two cute guys I just met. Andy had a slightly hurt expression. "Wait are you and Ryder...?" he had asked. A blush crept up to my cheeks again. "No! Of course not!" I exclaimed. "I've always wanted him to be my boyfriend..." Whoops. Why did I say that? Before anything else could happen, Lily glanced down at her watch, noticing it was time to leave. She clutched my arm, leading me out into the hallway. I wave awkwardly in the direction of our lunch table. Gerard is the only one who waves back, with about the same level of awkward, but cute.
Once out of sight and earshot, she squealed, "Quinn! Andy has such a big crush on you!" I roll my eyes at how much she's fangirled today. She stops jumping, with a dead serious look, which wasn't like her at all. "You like him too right?" she whispers. This whole situation with Lily makes me want to laugh out loud. "Well yeah, I like him. As a friend," I add in quickly. "He's just not Ryder." Ryder's deep gray, stormy eyes come into my mind. Lily shrugs. "Yeah, yeah sure. Just keep trying with Ryder. I'm sure that'll work out."

After a few more hours, the school day is almost over. In Latin class, I was glad to be with Gee. Gerard told me that I could call him that. It flew by since I got plenty of time to converse with Gee and get to know him better. We talked about bands, books, religion, ethnicity, family. He was really cute, but he definitely wasn't Ryder. He was also nice and charming and basically everything a girl'd like in a friend you meet the first day. He was new this year, coming in from New Jersey. Gerard didn't tell me why his parents sent him here, though. I told him about how my parents sent me here 4 years ago, because they really only cared about my education, not seeing me. Lily is like my family so that makes up for the absence of my parents. Although I still talked to them occasionally and visited them on holidays. Gee and I made sure to exchange numbers and Instagrams before third period could come to a close.
Apparently, the only class that Andy and I shared was English. During every class after first period, I was secretly wishing he was there. He seemed really mysterious and I need to get to know him. Maybe I should text him and schedule a time for us to meet up.
The next two periods I had with Lily. They were pretty boring but we made it through. Once you finally get to senior year at J.R. Holiday Boarding School you can pick your dorm mates. You can only pick two. Of course, I chose Lily. We also chose our long-time friend Meg. She was sick today so she didn't get to do anything but lie in bed. She was okay though, she got to binge watch Black Butler, our favorite anime, and YouTube so I'm pretty sure she's a-okay with that.
We're all going to have a girls' night to celebrate surviving the first day. Meg got The Hunger Games for us to watch on Amazon Prime. It's always been a classic for us since we were all like 12. Once Liam Hemsworth comes on screen Meg cheers. Me and Lily are both Team Peeta so obviously we roll our eyes. Faster than a blink, Meg swings her gaze to us, raising her eyebrows.
"Soooooo," she drags her voice suggestively. "Did you see any hot guys?" Lily nudges me, beaming and I flip her off. She falls to the ground and clutches her stomach from laughing so hard. "Ooohhh. What's going on with Quinn?" Meg grins. I blush.
"Okay, so this really attractive guy seemed to be interested in me. Even though he was really hot, I kinda tried to brush him off. I guess I was a bit nervous. Ugh, I'm so stupid." I put my head in my hands. He was being so friendly and nice and I put all my walls up. For no reason. Just cuz stupid, anxious me had to mess things up. Meg inquires his name and I tell her Andy Biersack. Her hands fly to her laptop and plugs in the name. Sometimes it surprises me how lazy she can be, but when it comes to guys she's faster than an Olympian.
She squeals when she finds something. "He's in a band!" she squeaks. "An emo band, guys." Lily and I both perk up. Meg goes to YouTube to see if she can find any of his music. She clicks on the one labeled "In The End" uploaded by Black Veil Brides. I definitely liked the band name. Seemed like it had a story behind it.
The song was amazing. The band members all had makeup that looked like war paint. Andy's was a white streak across the middle of his face and eyeliner. It brought out his blue eyes which gave me a pleasant feeling inside. He wears a leather vest that on the back reads "Prophet". Every time he looked at the camera, for some reason I thought he was looking at me. Into my soul. A shiver crept up my spine. When the video ended, I just kinda sat there at a loss for words. The girls giggle at my expression. My face reddens again.
"How have I never listened to this band before?" Lily demands. We abandon The Hunger Games and decide to change it to BVB music videos on the TV. There's an older one from 2010-ish called "Knives and Pens" where Andy looks much younger, most likely in his younger teenage years. His black hair is cut into an emo hairstyle and his band members look different than the ones in "In The End". I guess they've gone through numerous members. Meg takes a particular interest in the drummer and Lily seems to find the bass player attractive.
By the time we finish all the videos, it gets really late so we decide to get some rest for school tomorrow. When my head hits the pillow, I smile, dreaming about Andy.
Hallo! Thanks for reading :) My first BVB song was this one so I thought I'd make it her's too <3 Song requests are always open ;D Stay happy, not crappy ^_^
