Here I sat just sniffling. Vic had left and I didn't know what happened. Maybe he was disgusted by my story? I don't know but the cold air was making me numb.

I decided to head back to the busses but before I could move Vic came running back. "Sorry I took so long, but I was held up" I saw that he had his guitar. He jumped up on stage and told me to stand up. " I don't know if you want to record this but you can" I was confused but hesitantly took out my phone.

"I learned this song a few days after it came out, it helped a friend of mine so I decided, why not sing it to you? It's called To Write Love On Her Arms" he played a few chords while looking at me

Well she won't leave this night alone
And she won't sleep at all
And all the sorrow that she takes out on herself
It comes around and leaves her bleeding on the floor
And she knows
Yeah she knows that there's a lot of ugly things about this world

I don't know what hit me the hardest, the lyrics or the fact he was singing them to me

These street lights
They shine bright
As they illuminate the darkness of the pavement
They shine
As we try to write in on her arms
The love she longs to taste
And we'll find that inside
That she's a broken heart that anyone could save
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
These street lights
They shine bright
As they illuminate the darkness of the pavement
They shine
As we try to write in on her arms
The love she longs to taste
And we'll find that inside
That she's a broken heart that anyone could save
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright

And the stars are always there
But we miss them in the dirt and clouds
We miss them in the storms
Remember hope
Remember hope
Hold onto hope
We have hope
Hold onto hope
(It's alright)

When he was finished I pressed 'stop' and went to hug him. This was honestly the best and worst day ever. I kept saying thank you and he laughed lightly "did you like it?" I pulled away and looked at him "YES!!" Never in a million years would I think that Vic and I would become friends. We walked to the busses together laughing at random jokes. "Why did the mushroom go to the party?" I laughed because I knew this one "because he was selling mushrooms?" I guessed. He laughed and shook his head " you are too young to know about drugs!" He playfully chastised " I'm almost 19! And I'm pretty sure you did illegal things at my age" he laughed and nodded "so what's it like hanging out with your favorite bands?" I smiled evily "I don't know" I shrugged and he gave me a confused look " I thought that we were your fav-" I laughed at his confusion "my favorite band is One Direction idiot!" He stopped walking and gasped "you did not just say that"

I waited for him to catch up "well technically I don't have a favorite band but I do have a top 5" he nodded and waited for me to continue "I list them alphabetically cause I can't decide who should go before who or who should be first, I mean they're all very talented but I love y'all for different reasons" we had reached the busses "so whose in the top 5 then?" Vic asked as we entered the bus. Everyone looked at us, well Abby glared at me, I rolled my eyes and continued the conversation with Vic " Black Veil Brides, Bring Me The Horizon, One Direction, Pierce The Veil, and Sleeping With Sirens" Ashley wedged between us on the sofa " YEAAAH!! BVB ARMY BEATS ALL OF THEM BITCHES!" Vic and I laughed "no you're first cause B comes before P in the alphabet dumbass!" He frowned at Vic's words and left "umm Abby and I should leave, see y'all next year hopefully?" Abby stood up and walked to the door leaving without saying goodbye. "What happened?" I asked to no one in particular " she's jealous" a deep slurred voice answered. I instinctively looked towards the sound and winced at the sight. Andy stood there, leaning against the kitchen door frame with a beer in his hand, his icy blue eyes blood shot. Slade wouldn't do this to himself but then again Andy wasn't Slade. "Umm I should leave, bye guys, thanks for everything" I hugged everyone except Andy and Mike since Mike was MIA. I exited the bus and saw Abby waiting for me. "Hey, eventful day huh?" She rolled her eyes. "Maybe for you. Andy wouldn't shut up about how he never met a fan who refused to talk to him or take a picture! You know how annoying it was?!" We reached the car and buckled in before Abby continued ranting "and then you walk out with my husband, practically stealing him away, and went God knows where!" She huffed out and pouted. "He wants to sponsor me" I said quietly afraid of her reaction. We were on the highway when I received a text "WHAT!! How come you didn't tell me this?" She asked a bit angrily and I shrugged " cause I don't know if his management wants to sponsor me yet, he just sent in a video and I guess he hasn't heard back from them. Answer my message please, I don't need a ticket" she opened my screen and screamed "what?! Abby what happened?!" I pulled over and looked at the message

Good news, managements on board! You're coming on tour with us! Call me for more details just get your ass back here
P.S Abby can come :)

With that I did an illegal U-turn and headed back
