4:30am. The time that showed on the alarm clock. Smacking it, D woke up to gravity pulling at his hair. He rolled over on top of Andy to wake him up.

"Good morning to you too" Andy rasply spoke, glancing at him. He rolled over so D fell off onto the bed. He got up, the blanket falling off his chest, tattoos showing.

He chuckled, pulling D to him and ruffled his hair, before seeing the youngest book it over the bed. Having long legs and arms, he grabbed him, throwing him onto the bed before going onto all 4s over him.

D froze, words stuck in the back of his throat. Sitting up, he scooted back slowly until Andy had gotten face to face with him. The blue eyes had him lost in a thought. Not until Andy kissed him. The sparks that went through the kiss had D flustered.

"I- I..." He slowly recovered, while Andy got ready. He moved his hands to his lips, not knowing what in hell just happened.

A knock on the door got him back to reality. A sleepy Jinxx with coffee at the door looked at the two. "Almost time to get to the studio. 10 minutes." Closing the door behind him, he headed back down to get packed with the others.

D got ready, black plaid pants and a vintage Batman shirt complemented his red flannel tied around his waist. He shrugged, since he would fix his hair when they got there. He grabbed his phone, before putting his vans on.

Both of the boys got in the car, D taking the window seat. Putting on his earbuds, he put on Palaye Royale, humming along to Black Sheep. He wanted to sing as a child, but his parents said that he could not and he had been stuck doing band, where he learned to play guitar.

The boys got to the studio, BVB going to their studio, while D sat outside. He glanced around, before asking the staff if he could go into a room and do a cover of a song.

"Yeah kid. Show us what you got" The director said. They turned the music on, which the melody of 'Anxiety' played.

D let his vocals out, the raspy undertone fitting Remington's. He let all his emotions into, the scream lyrics fitting with his voice. The smoothness worked on the parts where it needed it, vise versa on the raspy whisper parts.

Listening from the hallway, the guys nodded, hearing his alternative rock voice that he never showed to anyone. They all approved, before the producer pulled them off to the side.

"He needs to make an album, it can be covers of songs which is fine. That kid has potential to be a singer or possibly join you guys." At first the guys weren't so sure, so they asked to see if he could run through a slow song for em.

The studio people asked D, who nodded. He pulled up Tonight is the night I die on his phone. He put in the earpiece, listening for the cue the start.

His raspy voice that they once heard became silky and smooth on the slow song. Sharp notes flowed into smooth ones.

The boys had already texted Remington to get the boys ass over to the studio asap. In a 3 minute interval of texting the message, they walked through the door.

"Yes, you texted?" Remington spoke, but they all shut up, hearing D's rasp. They glanced at each other, before they jammed out slightly.

"He's great. Is he living with you guys?" A nod of agreement between all of Black veil brides. The boys spent 2 hours there before leaving.

At home, Jake and Jinxx worked with D on guitar. Ashley however, pulled Andy off to the side. He pulled him away into the kitchen, but still in earshot range of D.

"I don't think it's a good idea to have him join the band Andy. We have no other way to add him in" He looked, seeing the eyebrows of Andy furrowed.

"If you don't like it Ash, you can leave. All the other guys like him." He crossed his arms, glaring at him. "Besides, you can't get mad at me when I already stole his lips." He smirked going to see how the 3 were doing.

"How you boys doing?" Andy said peering around the corner. He got a nod from D, while Jake and Jinxx perked up. "He's great! He's picked up everything so fast"

D blushed red. "I- I did band in middle school and played guitar." Andy watched D get flustered, a slight hint of jealousy pinging on his face.

"I'll leave you 3 to continue. Let me know when you guys get done." He said, pecking D's lips when Jinxx and Jake weren't looking before leaving.

The youngest shook his head, going back to focus on the guitar work at hand. Jake, Jinxx and D practiced the guitar part for Carolyn, before a knock at the door interrupted the three.

"It's CC. Mind if I steal him for a bit?" Jake and Jinxx allowed D to go with CC. "What are we doing now?" D asked confused following him. "We're gonna get you all fancied up for Andy." D sucked air in. CC handed him a pair of black pants with fake blood splatter, a split red and black flannel with a white tank undershirt and black vans. "Can you skate?" D looked at CC if he had been drinking. "Yes I can fucking skate." D took the skateboard, putting his beanie on. "Where do I meet him?" CC told him at the local skate park. D nodded, skating on his way there. He had his earbuds in, skating into the skate park.

Everyone there stopped what they were doing once he skated in. They were terrified of him, knowing that he had been a really good skater.
He reached a quiet part of the skate park. He waited 20 minutes, not seeing any sign of Andy anywhere.
