Divine and Wretched

Chapter 25

                                                                               (Ashley's POV)

  ~Eleven Years Later~

  Andy and I have been married for eleven years and my love for him keeps growing. I am grateful to have him in my life as my husband, best friend, and bandmate. BVB has made five albums and Andy has two solo albums. Plus, he made a comic book to go with one of his albums. I'm beyond proud of him. Everything he's accomplished shows how talented he is. I'm proud of myself for my accomplishments as well. Andy has just gotten back from his solo tour. "I'm home!" 

  I jump off the couch, running to him to give him hugs and kisses. "Welcome home. I missed you." I state, kissing him. 

 He kisses me back, hugging my waist. "I missed you too. I love you. I'm glad to be home. Although I am exhausted." He says. 

  I rub our noses together. "I'm glad to have you back. I knew you would be exhausted, which is why I ordered us pizza. And maybe an MCU marathon?" I smirk. 

  He grins, letting go of my waist. "Sounds like a perfect evening." He agrees, sitting on the couch. 

  I grab our MCU Blu-ray that's in 4K and start our marathon. And yes, we're watching them in order to be watched before we see Avengers: Endgame tomorrow. Yes, we're going to try and watch them all before tomorrow. 

  He cuddles into me. "I missed this." He states. 

  I grin, wrapping my arms around him. "I did too. Its nice to have you all to myself again." I state. 

  He kisses my cheek. "Awe that's so sweet. I'm happy to have you all to myself too." he says. "i missed you like crazy and being home is wonderful." He says. 

  I nod. "I missed you too. Its nice to have you back. I love you so much." I state. "Not having you here was weird." I tell him. 

  "That's good you love me. It was weird to be away from you for this tour. Usually you're on tour with me." He says. 

  "Agreed." There's a ring from the doorbell and I open it to see the pizza delivery man. I pay and then take the food. "Food!" I state, putting the boxes on the table. 

  He grins. "Thank you for dinner." He states. 

  I nod. "You're welcome. Plus, it's your favorite." 

  He starts eating. "Thank you. I love this scene." He says looking at the TV. We're currently watching Iron Man, the movie that started it all. 

  I nod, watching and eating as well. "I do too. Robert Downey Junior is the perfect Iron Man. No one else could have done the role justice." I state. 

  "Agreed. Stan Lee himself said that RDJ is the perfect casting." He says. We're both major nerds, especially when it comes to Marvel. I'm a comic book fan but Andy is even more of one. 

  I laugh. "Of course you knew that. You know more than I do about this stuff." I state. 

  He smiles. "That I do. You know what, I'm proud of everything we've accomplished since starting the band." He explains. 

  I nod. "I am too. I honestly didn't think we would get as far as we have. It sounds awful but that's the truth." 

  He laughs. "I know. Every time I perform onstage it feels like a dream." He says. 

  I lean into him again. "Same here. This right now feels like a dream even though I know its real. Very real." 

  "I love you." He states. 

  "I love you too." I say back. I lean forward to kiss him. "I love you too, Biersack-Purdy." I kiss him on the lips. 

  He leans into me as we kiss. I love him more than anything in the whole universe. I want him to know that because he deserves to. He's amazing and I know he knows it. He pulls back. "Damn." He says. 

  I bite my lip. "Damn is right." I agree. "I fucking missed you." I say. 

  He grins. "I missed you too." He states. He then smirks at me. "I also missed doing this." 

  I nod. "Yeah I know that. I missed this too." I say in agreement. "I wouldn't have this any other way." 

  He smiles against my shoulder. "I wouldn't either." He says. 

  I finish eating and then cuddle into his side. "I'm glad. I love this." I mean it. I love being with him watching movies and cuddling on the couch. I wouldn't want it any other way. In this moment, I know that we'll be together. In this moment, I know we're soulmates. And I love Andy more than anything.
