18 (An Andy Biersack fanfic) *ON HIATUS*

Chapter Sixteen

"Fucking hell!" Andy yelled and threw his phone at the wall. Of course it had to be him to tell Andy the news.

He ran his hands through his hair, messing it up and sighing loudly. He had to figure something out. With his luck, it would be Madeline taken away on purpose. He couldn't have that happen. Who knows what went on in the Capitol building.

Andy went to his room and fell back onto his bed. Today had been a long ass day, and he needed a break. He reached out to Madeline to tell her what's up. He won't tell her everything, but enough to keep her informed that possible danger is coming on.

Madeline. My father and his men are going to be coming here within the week to pick out the one C.O. I want you to stay as cautious as you can.

Thank you, Andy.

I love you

I love you too, Andy.

Andy had an idea on how to keep Madeline safe, but he didn't want to do that to her, but if it kept her safe, then maybe it'll have to be.

He closed his eyes wanting to take a nap and relax for just a little bit before things became too hectic.

Back at the auditorium, the group finished eating and were talking about random things, but Dylan didn't seem comfortable.

"So, is Drex, like, your new boyfriend? He's really clinging to you," he noted, looking at Drex as they had their hand on Madeline's arm as if to keep her around.

"Oh! No! They're just a friend," Madeline said, blushing a bit.

Drex smiled and ruffled their hair. "A good friend!"

"Hmmm..." Dylan still didn't seem convinced, but he just shrugged.

"Why do you care mister grumpy?" Alex asked him, raising her eyebrows.

Dylan coughed awkwardly and shook his head. "I don't. Shut up, Alex."

Angelica glared at Dylan and slapped him. "Only I can tell her to shut up."

Alex laughed and poked Angelica's side. "Relax. He's like a brother to me. We fight all the time. You should be used to it by now." Alex pecked Angelica's lips and smiled.

Madeline watched the two girls be affectionate towards each other. It just made her miss Andy. She knew she couldn't be with him 24/7, but when she was without him, she just felt something was missing from her. Maybe that's what true love felt like?

When Andy had told her to keep cautious through his telepathy, she could almost feel his anxiousness, and she was sure Drex felt it too, but they didn't say a word.

"Hey, I think Angel and I are going to go explore the rest of the grounds," Alex said.

"What does that mean?" Dylan raised his eyebrow. "Was that like a sexual innuendo?"

Alex gasped and shook her head covering her mouth. "DYLAN! No! I meant literally! You know this institute is far bigger than it seems. There's secret passage ways and everything. I found a couple myself." Alex looked proud of herself.

"Alright, well don't get caught," Dylan warned. "Or else we're all in trouble. Everyone knows we're all a group."

Alex nodded her head jumped up from her seat, skipping off, dragging Angelica behind her and yelling, "I'll tell you if we find something!"
