Band One-Shots (Open!)

Cliché (Andy Biersack and Max Green)

"Whatever fag." I scoffed at the shorter man in front of me. "I'm a bundle of sticks?!" he exclaimed in mock surprise, "Thank you so much for informing me!"

I laughed and punched him playfully in the shoulder. "You're such a dumbass, Max!"

He just shrugged in response, smirking at me. Yes, Max is Max Green, whoop-dee-fucking-doo.

His band, Falling In Reverse, was touring with my band, Black Veil Brides. Max and I are really close; we have a very playful friendship.

I ran my fingers through my short black hair, sweeping it back as I asked if he had fun playing the show tonight.

He nodded with a smile. He has such a beautiful smile... Wait, what? Fuck, I sound gay. Get a grip Andy.

"ANDY."

"Sorry, I kinda spaced. What's up?" I admitted sheepishly. He rolled his eyes, saying, "You alright? Your face is kinda red."

I hadn't even noticed my face felt hot until he pointed that out. "Um, yeah, I'm great." I lied, feeling my cheeks grow even warmer.

Max stepped closer, putting his hand on my arm. "Andy, come on. Level with me here. What's wrong?"

I shook my head, trying to shake off the fuzzy feeling I was getting from being so close to him.

"Nothing." I broke away from his grasp and made my way to Ashley, who was flirting with some blonde Barbie bitch.

"Hey Ash, can I talk to you?" I interrupted. The girl shot me a dirty look, but I ignored it. "Yeah, of course!" Ashley smiled, leading me away.

"What's up?" he asked once we were alone. "I um...." I sighed, biting my lip before saying, "I think I like Max."

He raised an eyebrow in curiosity. "You think you're gay?" he questioned. "Oh no, I like screwing girls. That's a good time.

"It's just, I get like this fuzzy feeling when he touches me, and I can't stop smiling when I'm around him."

Ashley did a little happy dance as he clapped his hands. "Awwwwww!" he exclaimed, "That's so cute!"

"Shut uuuuup!" I whined, covering my smile with my hand as I once again felt my cheeks get warm.

"Oh come on," Ashley laughed, "You totally like him." "Maybe I do." I mumbled, looking down as I removed my hand.

Do I really have feelings for Max? I guess so, I get the same feeling with him that I do a girl... Does this mean I'm bi, then?

Fuck, this is confusing!

I felt a thump on my forehead, and looked down to see an irritated Ashley. "Hey Sasquatch, I'm talking to you." he snapped.

"If you really do like him, you should tell him. You never know, he might like you back."

I shook my head fearfully. "But if he doesn't, it could ruin our friendship." "Then me and the guys will be right here for you.

"Now get moving Bigfoot, go find your sexy man and tell him you want his penis."

Before I could protest what he said, I was shoved back out to the main area to go find Max.

Ashley scurried off, probably to go try to track down that girl again. Left with no other option, I went to find Max.

He was sitting by himself, scrolling through his phone while drinking from a water bottle.

I couldn't help but notice he looked upset, and thought maybe I should give him space.

No, Andy. Toughen fucking up. Now or never. Besides. Ashley will probably beat me with a toaster or something if I don't.

"Hey Max." I said shyly, standing in front of him. "Hey." he muttered, not looking up from the device.

"Can, can we go outside for a minute? Alone?" I requested, my stomach filled with butterflies.

He sighed as he shoved his phone in his pocket, then stormed outside. I followed quickly, closing the door to the little alley we were in.

He leaned against the wall, crossing his arms as he looked at me impatiently.

I ran my fingers through my hair again before thanking him. "Mhmm. Whadja need?"

How do I even say this? "I just now realized I like you?" That's fucking ridiculous... Screw it, I'll just show him.

What's the worst that can happen? He punches me, tells everyone I'm a fag, never talks to me again?

Stop thinking about the bad things, just do it already! I held his face between my hands and pressed my lips to his before he could react.

He froze for a split second before kissing back roughly, grabbing the sides of my shirt and slamming me against the wall.

"Aggressive." I giggled against his lips. He chuckled before murmuring, "You have no fucking clue how long I've wanted to kiss you."

I was about to ask when he reconnected our lips, making me feel as if things were spinning around us and time had slowed down.

We finally pulled away after several minutes, feeling breathless. We just leaned our foreheads together, our eyes remaining closed.

Closed till we heard a giggle.

Ashley's giggle.

That rat bastard.

"Well that was cute." he laughed, when I jumped away from Max, "So you two gonna date now or what?"

"I, I uh.." I stammered for words, at a total loss. Max took initiative to respond, saying, "Depends. You gonna leave so we can have privacy?"

Ashley chuckled, shaking his head at us before walking back inside. "He's nosy." Max giggled, setting his hands on my waist.

I shrugged, wrapping my arms around his neck as I said, "He just cares a lot."

Max nodded, looking at the ground as we started to sway, like we were dancing together to a song.

"So, Andy?" he mumbled after another couple of minutes.

"Yes?"

"Will you be my boyfriend?"

"Of course."

Andy had the same answer when they got engaged three years later.
