Stay Alive

Chapter 5

It started to snow the next day, so Andy was sent out to run some errands for his parents and I stayed back with Amy and Chris. She had to show me his baby pictures and told me tons of stories about their holidays and his birthdays. I smiled a whole bunch and laughed even more. I would sometimes catch a glimpse of Chris looking at Amy like he was the luckiest man in the world and it would warm my heart.

Andy returned with a bunch of shopping bags and I helped him carry them in. A knock came and Andy welcomed in his cousin, Joe, and introduced me. I explained that I was a big fan of his channel on YouTube and he was happy to meet another fan. I then went to get comfy on the couch and Andy came to sit beside me, his arm draped over the beck of it, as we all settled in for the movie.

"Andy, did you pick this?" I asked.

"What?" he giggled. "Tim Burton movies are fucking amazing."

"Uh huh. Yeah, we'll be there."

"Who was that, hun?" Chris asked Amy.

"Janet. She's invited us to a wine tasting tomorrow."

"Looks like you'll have the house to yourselves," Joe chuckled, nudging Andy.

"Dude," he scoffed.

"Sorry."

He was right though. We would have the house to ourselves tomorrow. I glanced over to Amy and Chris and noticed she winked at me. I blushed hard core and tried to focus my attention back on the movie but it was super difficult. I looked up at Andy and he was completely engrossed in Batman. I sighed and excused myself to go sit outside for a bit and I immediately called Zara.

"Hey, how's Cincinnati?"

"I think Andy wants to have sex with me."

"Well that escalated quickly."

"Z, I'm serious! I'm fucking terrified."

"Doe, calm down. Have you forgotten who you're dating? He's one of the most kind, sensitive, and patient men in the world and he would never pressure you."

"Hey," I heard him call out.

"I gotta go. Hey, I was just coming back-"

"Doe."

"Okay," I sighed.

"I'm sorry about what Joe said. He was out of line."

"He wasn't wrong and I do eventually want to. I just...I don't know."

"Hey," he replied, taking my hand in his, "I told you I'm patient. I'll wait as long as it takes. There's that smile I love so much. Come on, we're missing Jack Nicholson's perfect portrayal of Joker."

-----TIME LAPSE CHRISTMAS PARTY-----

"Get crazy, get wild," Zara sang along as she finished decorating.

"Why do you insist on having a party?"

"Because Christmas."

"And I'm sure LMFAO is Christmas themed."

"Foo loves Christmas."

"You would know," I giggled.

"I'm this close to spraying you with silly string. That's the guests. Can you open the door?"

I sighed as a bunch of her friends piled into our apartment and the music started pumping. I felt so fucking out of place. I grabbed a drink and went to hide in a corner for a bit. As I scanned the crowd, I heard some commotion by the door. I turned to see the entire Black Veil Brides band and their girlfriends walking into our place and I practically choked on my drink. Andy found me pretty quickly.

"I hate parties," he chuckled in my ear.

"Why are you here then?"

"For you. Come on, I want you to meet everyone."

I was introduced to the entire band and I was sure that my face was glowing like a fucking disco ball. Brand New Numb by Motionless In White started to play and Z dragged me into the tiny mosh pit. Incidentally, I dragged Andy along with me, and we all started jumping and head banging to the familiar song. At least Zara invited people who liked good music.

"Have you seen them live?" Andy asked.

"No but I want to!"

"They got a concert coming up in January and I got an extra ticket. Wanna come with me?"

"I'd love to!"

"You guys are fucking adorable," Z smiled.

"Hey, Scott," Andy waved.

"This ones for the underdogs!" everyone shouted.

I didn't realize it until the song ended, but as we were moshing my ass was right against Andy's crotch. I blushed as everyone started to calm down with All In My Head by Fifth Harmony playing. I felt Andy start to leave me, but I grabbed his hands and placed them on my hips. I rotated my lower half against him like Zara showed me a long time ago and I felt his fingers tense against my skin. I leaned myself back against him as my body followed the rhythm and he followed along with me. As I rolled my hips, he would roll his with me and I swear he moaned in my ear. I turned to look him in the eyes and he looked fucking intoxicated, drunk on my dancing. As the next song started to play, I ran my hand down to his crotch and grabbed his junk through his pants, forcing his jaw to tense.

"Doe," he whispered.
