The minute I woke up, my head started hurting. I looked around and realized I was home. I swear, I don't even remember falling asleep. Then suddenly, memories came flashing through my head. Memories of the party, my birthday, Ashley...

I don't know why he'd do that if he loved me. Maybe I was just his charity case that needed help. Maybe that's the way all the guys think of me.

Ugh... My head REALLY hurts. I looked at the time and noticed it was already 1:15 PM. I just laid there for a few minutes until I got a call from the house phone.

I trudged down the stairs and picked up the phone, "Hello?"

"Hey, I was just calling to see if you were okay after last night and-"

"Look. You don't have to do all this for me because you feel bad, okay? I'm sick of all the lying and backstabbing."

"Alex, what are you talking about? I didn't-"

"No need for any excuses, just leave me alone," and with that, I hung up.

Good thing I haven't told any of the guys about my dad, and the way he treated me when I was younger. If I did, they would've just made a bigger deal than it has to be. It's best this way. They wouldn't have to deal with me and all my problems anymore.

DING DONG!

Someone's at the door.

"Go away!" I yelled.

"Wait! But I need to talk to you!" The voice sounded like Andy's.
"C'mon, hear me out!" He yelled through the door, then suddenly walked in.

"Leave."

"Hey, you're the one who left her door unlocked. Just listen to me for a second. I'm not doing anything for you because I feel bad, I'm doing it because I care about you. I promised you that'd I'd always be here for you and here I am," he explained while hugging me.

I sat there, motionless. I've heard the same story before, what makes Andy any different? He'll probably walk back out of my life before I know it.

"You can talk to me, if you need anything or if you're just feelin' down..." He looked at me with concern.

I plastered a smile on my face and replied, "Thanks, I'll keep that in mind."

He gave me a strange look. A mixture between sadness, suspicion, confusion and concern.

I decided to change the subject, "You wanna hang out today?"

"I can't. I have to record in the studio for a little bit, we're still working on our newest album."

"Oh yeah, 'Wretched and Divine'?"

"That's the one. You can come with me if you want," he offered while holding his hand out for me.

I smiled and grabbed it as he pulled me to my feet.

"I'm not afraid to die!" Andy just finished one of their songs called 'In The End' then looked over at me, like he actually cared to know what I thought about it.

I gave him a thumbs up as he flashed me a big grin.
Wow, his smile was so... Perfect.

The songs are amazing! I bet I'm the first person, who isn't a member of BVB or a producer that's heard a couple of songs from the album. They're really coming along nicely, I'm so happy for them.

Speaking of the other guys, I haven't seen them all day...

"Hey guys!" CC yelled while sitting down next to me.
