I suck at being a girl. Fact. It takes me over one and a half hours to do my makeup and hair every morning and then it still sucks. My mom tried to teach me, but now I've moved out so that's useless. My friends, I only have two so it's not the strongest either. Youtube tutorials "next apply fake lashes carefully and use a damp Q-tip to push them into place" I shove the Q-tip into my eye accidentally and take the eyelashes off... wow. Heels? Don't even get me started..
Having said all that I'm kinda glad I'm not normal "normal is the setting on a washing machine, nobody wants to be that" says Ashley purdy. A.K.A the bassist in Black Veil Brides. A.K.A my favourite band of all time! Ok so if my music taste wasn't indication enough that I'm slightly unusual let me describe myself. I have waist length black hair (that's dyed. the natural colour of my hair is blonde -_-) I am wearing black ripped skinny jeans and a band t-shirt (three guesses which band) I am also wearing stomper boots and a leather jacket. My skin is extremely pale and my eyeliner is.... wonky. Argh!!
I rub my eyeliner off and start again. Leaning closer to my mirror and leaving my mouth open (attractive right) Once I've finished re-doing my eyeliner I grab my skull-panda rucksack and make my way out of my apartment.
Yeah, I may be 20 years old but who doesn't love pandas? and who doesn't love them more when they are skeleton pandas!? I am currently at university and training to be a vetinary nurse... whoop-de-do...
I moved to America a few years ago back when I was 18 and life has been ok since. I mean, I'm not rich and I'm definitely not famous but it's good. I can do what I please and there is no one to stop me.. well almost no one... My mother, A.K.A the hag is one of the strictest mothers of all time. I couldn't die my hair until I was 14 and I'm apparently not allowed and piercings or tattoos ever. She'll get a shock when she next sees me.
Anyway, to keep myself afloat I had to get a few jobs. Waitress, Dog shelter worker and a tutor. I teach people who struggle at school some extra tips and tricks to help them through exams and stuff. The reason I figured all of this was important is because I got a strange call as I was walking to the doh shelter one day about a strange request for a tutor, I answered the phone to hear an older woman "hello?"
"Oh hello dear are you the tutor we've been told about?"
"I guess so" I say with a smile before realizing she couldn't actually see me.
"Oh brilliant. I was wondering if you could tutor my son, he's um.. A little older than some of the others" I assumed she meant he'd had repeated a few years
"Oh that's fine, I'd love to"
"Ah lovely, he just wanted to learn a few things. Not much but if you want to?"
"Of course!"
"Good" she then gave me all the details etcetera and we arranged the first lesson, Thursday. It was Tuesday today so I had a while to prepare.
I daydreamed my way through the next few days, barely returning to the real world and when I did I would read and imagine countless other things. My favorite book of all time is "Prince of wolves" by Quinn Loftis. How the wolves treat their mates, respect, compassion and love. It made me almost envious but got me hooked at the same time. I must have read it six times at least, I get more from the book every time I read it.

Thursday rolled around pretty quickly so I got dressed into a smart pencil skirt and blouse and put my hair back into a bun. I put on plain black creepers, took all my piercings out and covered my tattoos. I find that parents approve more if you look professional.
I walk up to the house and knock a few times, after a few seconds a tall man in his early 20's opens the door, his piercing blue eyes look me over critically as he messes up his hair. All his tattoos are widely on show and I am astounded by the number of them before something finally clicks in my brain. This is Andy fucking Biersack.
"You're not.. They said you had tattoos and piercing and... You're not at all what I wanted." He says dissapointed and tries to close the door which I quickly jam my foot in.
"Wait... Please..."
