Black Veil Brides- My Journey

ChapterTwenty

Charlie's POV

I woke up in the exact postion I fell asleep, face down like a log. I reached for my phone to check the time it was half past nine in the evening meaning that the show had started. I also had a text from quite a while ago. It was from Juliet Simms.

J: Hello beautiful xx ;) Andy told me to send you a text so here I go, hope you have fun on tour sunshine. Always be positive bbe remember anyone would gladly take your place so make the most of it xx look after Andrew for meh :*

I smiled to myself before getting out of my clothes and getting in to a Hello Kitty onesie Ashley had bought me. It was very soft and kept me warm in the cold atmosphere of the tour bus. Everything was quiet and when I tried to open the door to get out onto the streets I couldn't. Shit. I was locked in.

I decided to go sit on the couch and listen to some music. I unraveled Jake's headphones and put the plugs in my ears. Knives and pens started and as no one was around I began to sing along.

Alone at last, we can sin and fight,

And I've lost all faith in this blurring light,

Stay right here, we can change our plight,

Storming through this, despite what's right.

One final fight for this tonight

Woah-oh-oh

With knives and pens we made our plight,

Lay your heart down, the ends in sight,

Conscience begs for you to do what's right.

Everyday it's still the same dull knife,

Stab it through, and justify your pride

One final fight for this tonight

Woah-oh-oh

With knives and pens we made our plight,

Woah-oh-oh

I can't go on without your love, you lost, you never held on.

We tried our best, turn out the light.

Turn out the light.

One final fight for this tonight

Woah-oh-oh

With knives and pens we made our plight,

Woah-oh-oh

I can't go on without your love, you lost, you never held on.

We tried our best, turn out the light.

Turn out the light

Quickly I turned my music down; something moved on the couch opposite me, exactly where Jinxx always sat. It was a small black blob. It rolled over and stretched out. I then realised it was Johnnie.

"You're good at singing," he said through the darkness.

Freaked out, I quickly jumped up onto my feet and pressed my self against the window.

He found the light and turned it on.

"Um hi," I said, sitting back down on the couch. "Thanks, I thought I was alone."

"Well not really," Johnnie said "I'm here."

"I know that now, why aren't you in there with the rest?"

"Well I fell asleep and I'm not sure... wait why aren't you in there?"

"I fell asleep and I woke up and all the exits are locked."

"What the fuck, they can't lock me.. Us in here," he exclaimed "ugh fuck this."

He sat next to me, quite close actually. I didn't mind as long as he kept that 2cm space.

"Well, um how are you?" be said looking into my eyes biting his lip.

"Apart from being stuck in a freezing cold tour bus with you, then alright," I said in response.

"Oh ok then." he looked down a bit disappointed.

"Wait what?" I thought through what I said in my head then got how hurt Johnnie must have felt. "Ahh no Johnnie I didn't mean it like that, I love you," I looked up at him as I spoke.

"Eh, you what?" he looked very shocked and so was I, I didn't realise what I just said.

"Like um."

"Love?"

"Love?"

"Yeah.."

"Friends,"

"Friends."

"Mm."

I nodded then looked away.

"Well um Charlie?"

"Yes.."

"Do you wanna play a game?"

ChapterTwentyOne

Johnnie's POV

I burst out laughing as Charlie sat there, slightly freaked by what I just said.

"So sorry Charlie, I-I...seriously didn't mean that sexually, unless you want to but we said friends and I don't no really what that means um... No sorry"

The words spilled out of my mouth so fast I couldn't stop them.

"A game you said?" Charlie said quietly, "well okay what game,"

She looked up at me with her huge, curious eyes.

"Well what about A,B,C bands?"

As she said this she leant a little closer to me bumping my shoulder with hers. I had adventurously sat quite close to her but the 2cm gap between us soon became 1cm as we started our cute little game. Well I thought it was cute anyway.

"Okay then let me start," she said grinning, "A for Asking Alexandria, B... Aha Johnnie, You got an easy one."

I really liked the way she said my name. It wasn't overly British but it defiantly not American. Adorable.

"B.. Haha yeah Black Veil Brides duh,"

"Um C, Crown the Empire. Ooo! I now the next one, A day to Remember! I love them so much."

"What so do I they're like my favourite band at the moment." I exclaimed bumping shoulders again

I then found myself found staring into her beautiful grey eyes. I'm not sure if she minded or not because she just stared back. The space was now non-existing. I really wasn't sure what my brain was doing, but my heart had kinda taken control. She smelt really nice, a mixture of banana milkshake, hair spray and war paint.

Our noses touched gently and I felt the need to hold my breath. I think we both were as I couldn't feel any breath on my face. It felt right to lean to the left so I did and I was so close.

Something vibrated between us and we both jumped away in panic and confusion. It continued vibrating, and only then did we realise that there was someone's iPhone stuck between the black seat cushions. I pulled it out and answered the call.

Charlie crept up gingerly behind me and put it on speaker.

"Hello?"
