I Sold My Soul To The Devil...For a Rockstar's Love

Prologue

“An angel, a demon.”

That's a line from “Never Give In” by Black Veil Brides. And it about sums everything up. Andy Biersack is an angel sent straight from Heaven (fallen straight from Heaven, anyway). And I, I am a demon. I guess. I belong to the Devil, so I guess that makes me a demon.

I'm not a Satanist or anything, so don't go thinking that's what I'm talking about or freak out. In fact, before the Incident, I was fully devoted to God. I wasn't just one of those “Christians”, I actually had a genuine relationship with God. Not saying I don't still love God. But my soul belongs to the Devil now, and God probably wants nothing to do with me. Where the darkness is the light cannot be. That's not right, but it's something like that anyway.

Maybe I should back up a bit.

My name is Charlie Danvers. I am 23 years old, currently taking classes at the local community college and lately I've been working some afternoons at Rue 21 (it was the only place—aside from Hot Topic, but there's not Hot Topic near—that would hire me because of my appearance.

The other person I mentioned (besides the Devil) is the rockstar I sold my soul for: Andrew Dennis Biersack (better known as Andy Six or “Sixx” to stupid idiot poser “fans”), the vocalist and frontman of Black Veil Brides. If you don't believe me that he's an angel, just listen to the man sing. It is not humanly possible to have that beautiful of a voice. Heck, it's not humanly possible to be that beautiful period, unless sent directly from Heaven.

What girl of the outcast persuasion wouldn't fall in love with him? But for me it wasn't just another celebrity crush. Even I'm not stupid enough to sell my soul to Satan over that. Perhaps I should back up even farther.

It started with my best friend CC (also known as Christian Coma. I know his real last name, but I swore I'd never tell anyone who might be a fan of his). Well, it actually started before that, before We Stitch These Wounds even came out, before the band consisted of its 5 present members, before it even had only 3 members: Andy, Sandra, and Chris Hollywood. I have loved Black Veil Brides ever since they were just a little band in Ohio, with Chris Stewart and Bobby and all of them.

So I guess at first I did just have a “celebrity crush” on Andy, but even then I claimed it was more than just a crush; I claimed I was in love. He was just too gorgeous and his voice was just too beautiful.

If only I'd had any idea then that my best friend would become the drummer for Black Veil Brides, that I would actually develop a friendship with Andy and get to see the real him behind the makeup and lyrics, that that “love” would become actual true love.
