Die For You (for Naefallenangel)
Renae “Nae"
:
Renae, Nae for short, woke up the morning of the Black Veil Brides concert feeling full of anticipation. She had perfect tickets and she was going to get to see the boys up close and personal. She opened her bedroom door to find the house empty. Of course everyone had left her alone. It was normal.
She scratched her head and rubbed her eyes as she slid on a pair of her mom’s flip flops and walked outside in the blazing sunshine. She squinted her eyes and began walking down the driveway towards her mailbox. She figured no one had gotten the mail yet, and it was already almost twelve-thirty in the afternoon. The mail would have arrived by then.
She opened the mail box and started pulling out bill after bill for her parents to pay. As she closed the mailbox, a car full of guys drove by and honked at her.
“HEEEYYY! WOOO!” They all called at her, hanging out the window.
She looked up and saw the car was filled with the guys from Black Veil Brides. This was a dream, right? Right?
“NICE SHIRT!” One of them called out.
As the car disappeared down the road, she looked down at her mom’s flip flops and then let her eyes travel up her body to her heart print pajama shorts and then to her Black Veil Brides t-shirt. Black Veil Brides just saw her in her pajamas.
She shook her head, looking through the stack of envelopes as she walked back up the driveway to her house. She knew how close to the venue she lived, but never, not once had a band driven by her house like that.
****
The concert itself was amazing, as she had expected. Black Veil Brides never failed to impress her. Although the concert itself would have been more exciting if she had someone to go with. None of her friends liked her music, and because she lived so close to the venue, her parents allowed her to go to concerts by herself. They knew that if she needed them at any point, she was five minutes down the street. It gave both parties a sense of comfort.
When the show was over, she wandered outside and around to the side of the venue so she could call her parents. The option of walking home didn’t seem like the most enjoyable idea, so she went to the side of the venue to cancel out the amount of noise from the large crowd trying to mow their way to their cars. She pressed the phone to her ear and listened as it rang, and rang, and rang. She got voicemail and hung up. Maybe walking was her only option. Just as she put her phone in her pocket, someone grabbed her from behind and spun her around to face him.
He had yellow, decaying teeth, a five o’clock shadow, and tangled curly hair. She tried to scream, but was in too much shock. He thrust his hands into her pockets and bag, looking for things to take. She tried to fight him off, but he was stronger than she was. He pulled out a gun, and pointed it at her forehead.
The door to the side of the venue opened and she saw Ashley Purdy walk outside from behind the man. He spotted the two and saw the fear in Nae’s eyes.
“Hey, you!” Ashley called out.
The man spun around, taking Nae with him and holding her against him with the gun still pointed at the side of her head. “Take any more steps and she dies.” The man said with his scruffy voice.
Tears escaped Nae’s eyes and Ashley could feel an overwhelming sense of pain wash over him as he watched this beautiful girl being held hostage.
Ashley started to back up towards the door, when Andy, the rest of the band, and their security guard Matt walked out. Matt saw the man with the gun and pulled out his own gun, pointing it the man.
“Drop your weapon.” He ordered.
The man stayed unphased and Nae just prayed it would be over soon. She just wanted to be home in her bed, safe and sound. She never asked for any of this.
Ashley stepped forward, distracting the man with the gun and Andy snuck around behind him. He snatched the gun out of his hands and threw it into the bushes. Matt swiftly put his gun away and grabbed the man, taking him away to the police, who were stationed on the other side of the venue.
“You guys saved me.” She breathed heavily.
Ashley grabbed her and hugged her. He didn’t know this girl, but she was a fan, and he never wanted anything to happen to his fans.
“You could have died.” She said into his chest.
“I would die for you.” He admitted to her.
Andy and the rest of the guys watched the two. “Hey, you’re that girl from earlier today!” CC observed.
“Oh, yeah!” Jake agreed, realizing himself.
“Do you live around here?” Ashley asked. “We’ll take you home.”
Nae nodded and clung to Ashley’s side. She never wanted to let him go. He made her feel safe, and she held onto him for the whole way home.
