Amelia's Point Of View (One Month Later)

"Millie, wake up! People want to meet you!" Brendon whispered in my ear excitedly, while gently shaking me.

I grunted, rolled over, and opened my eyes to meet his warm chocolaty ones that were staring down at me lovingly.

"Yeah, yeah, i'll get ready. I'll be out in 30" I smiled and pecked his lips.

"Ugh, fine, but I'm counting!" He exclaimed mockingly, and walked out of the room with a huge grin plastered on his face. I laughed.

I'm so glad things turned out the way they did. Brendon is the sweetest person ever, and i'm really happy we both liked each other. He's been helping me through my eating disorder, and depression, and I've never felt better. Of course i'm not completely recovered, but i'm so close. I just need to ignore those voices in my head that keep calling me 'fat', and 'ugly'.

I got out of bed, and pushed myself onto the cold floor. Slowly, I walked over to the walk in closet to pick out some clothes for the day. A few weeks ago, Brendon took me shopping, and bought me a whole wardrobe. I felt terrible for spending his money, but he assured me that I needed it, and that I didn't need to worry. But I still felt guilty. But since then, i've actually gotten a job at Starbucks down the road from us, so I will be able to buy things myself. And it's adorable when Brendon comes in every morning to get some coffee, and asks how my morning has been.

I grabbed a cute pink crop top, shorts, and a sweater to hopefully hide my scars from the people i'm suppose to be meeting in a few minutes. I don't want them thinking i'm a freak, or that i'm always sad. 

That's simply not true. I've actually never been sad since I have met Brendon. I mean, yeah there were times where I would be upset and bawl like a child, but he would always help me and cheer me up. And I am so thankful for that. I grabbed my clothes and phone, and walked across the hall to the bathroom. When I walked into the bathroom, I heard people talking in the kitchen.

"She sounds really cool, I can't wait to meet her!" A familiar voice exclaimed.

I have no clue where I've heard this person before, but I know I have. God, that's going to bug the shit out of me. I closed and locked the door, and peeled my clothes off. Quickly, I got into the shower and turned the hot water on. 

I hurriedly finished my shower, and dried myself off. Fastly, I threw on my clothes that I picked out and started blow drying my hair. After my hair was somewhat dry, I brushed it out and put on my makeup for the day. I decided on a natural look with a cat eye, just like I always do. Swiftly, I put on my white sweater, put my phone in my back pocket and unlocked the door.

I opened the door and steadily walked out, shutting it behind me. Slowly, I took a deep breath and started walking towards the mumbles of people. I stopped right outside of the kitchen, my heart pounding. Well, the one good thing is that i'll be able to remember this person? I still don't even know if I have heard their voices or even met them. Well, lets get this over with I guess.

I walked in with my eyes fixed to the floor. 

"Hey! You must be Amelia! Nice to meet you!" I nodded, and looked up to see my dream. My idols. The people I looked up to for forever. The people who helped me through everything. The people who saved me. 

My hands flung to my mouth as I gasped.

"Well, this is Tyler, and that is Josh. Even though i'm pretty sure you already know them" Brendon chuckled.

"You guys helped me through everything. You saved me. Your music got me through the toughest of times, and it still does. Thank you so much." I started getting choked up. 

Josh walked up to me, and pulled me into a huge hug, a smile on his face. Tears of pure happiness rolled down my cheeks and I smiled as well. We pulled away, and I hugged Tyler as well. When we pulled away, I went over to stand by Brendon.

"Brendon actually told us about what happened, and how you guys actually met. I'm so sorry about everything." Tyler sadly smiled.

"It's fine. I've actually gotten a whole lot better since me and Brendon met, which I am so thankful for." I looked up at Brendon, and rubbed circles in his back.

"That's good! You seem cool, friends?" Josh and Tyler held their hands out, which I gladly shook, and smiled.

"Friends."
