A lot of people have warned me about creepy people on the Internet, since I'm on it about 24/7. I listen to them once and a while, because I do tend to run into some weird people, but I always end up blocking them - I sure don't want to get tracked down and kidnapped or something.... I find more awesome people than creepers, though, so that's pretty nice! But little did I know, one day I would meet someone who would change my life forever. She would make me the happiest person in the world. She'd support me in everything I do and am as a person, and would love me for who I am.
This is our story....
On the afternoon of January 9th, 2011, I was in my living room, listening to music on the computer and playing around on twitter. I was pretty bored and was looking for something other to do, but I couldn't think of anything, as usual. My mentions on twitter were bare, which doesn't happen very often since I have over 2,000 followers. You're probably wondering how the heck I have so many followers, huh? Well, I'm a HUGE fan of the band Black Veil Brides, and my username is @AshPurdysBoner; Ashley Purdy himself follows me. Ash is the bassist, and he's pretty damn sexy. He's very sexual and likes the ladies a lot, and even has his own custom porn basses with naked chicks on them. Not my favorite thing in the world, but hey, I can live with it, can't I?
I decided to click on the button to write a new tweet, since no one would tweet me first. "I am soooo bored..!!!" I typed, "someone be awesome and entertain me..? (;" I pressed send.
A few moments later, a tweet showed up directed to me, from @AndySixsEyes. "Hey there! I'll entertain you! :3" I could see her name was Najwa, and she had a picture of Andy Biersack's eyes (Andy is the lead singer of Black Veil Brides) as her profile picture. I've never heard of the name Najwa before, and I instantly took a liking to it. It was unique, and very beautiful sounding. She asked me my name, and I told her; Clarissa, but Clary for short.
I clicked reply, typing back, "Yay..!!! Thank you..!! :D" I did the "..." before question marks or exclamation points because that's what Ashley Purdy does when he types, and I thought I'd be cool to copy him just for fun. I soon developed a habit of it after doing it for so long, and did it without even thinking.
As we continued to talk, we started up a conversation about how we absolutely love BVB. I told her that I've seen them in concert once and have met them all, except for Ashley. Which is really unfortunate because he's my favorite member.... She said she's seen them as well, and has only met Ash and Andy. But still, she met ASHLEY. So jealous! Apparently when she met him she couldn't stop smiling at him, and he joked at her saying "Are you broken? I think you are! Andy, we should throw her in a dumpster!" When she told me this, I couldn't stop laughing!! Ash could be such a sweetheart sometimes. He often got over the top with objectifying women and treating them a bit like objects, which I don't appreciate. But I shrug it off a lot of the time. I mean, how harmful could it be?
I started to take a real liking in Najwa, and I could feel myself relating to her and bonding over this band we both love so much. I smiled to myself for finding my new cool friend, and we talked late into the night, both of us falling asleep before either of us could say goodnight.
