I Sold My Soul To The Devil...For a Rockstar's Love
Chapter 1
Chapter 1
CC had a huge secretive smile plastered on his face--his smiles were always the biggest, but something about this one was mischievous. I looked up at him. My hair fell over my face, so I blew it off.
"Uh oh," I said, and stood up. "The face. The face is never good." I had known Christian for way too long.
He started grinning even wider, and I put my hands on my hips. "Spill. Now."
"You're looking at..." he paused for what seemed like forever, and only continued when he saw on my face that I was about to punch him in the face, "the new drummer of... Black Veil Brides!"
I nearly passed out. I think I screamed an earth shattering scream. Black Veil Brides had been my favorite band since like 2007, and he knew it too. I loved Sandra as a drummer, but CC was my best friend and I knew he was just as good (if not better, but that might just be my bias talking) and I knew he had worked so hard for this and deserved it more than anyone. However, I couldn't help but fangirl. I should have been congratulating him, but come on, this was Black Veil Brides, and I had to have my immature moments sometimes, despite the fact I was 23.
CC crossed his arms over his chest and semi-glared at me. I glared right back as I drew in a deep breath. "Okay, okay, I'm done. For now." I took in a few more breaths to further calm myself.
"So..." I said suggestively, slowly slinking closer to Christian, "when are you going to introduce me to the boys...?" I wiggled my eyebrows.
CC just laughed. "I don't think so, Char." He smirked.
I pouted. "No fair! Come on, you're my best friend. And now you're in my favorite band. Me and my favorite band are now bound to cross paths often."
"You're such a child, Charlie," he said, but not in a mean way. And he was right. I had to grow up way too fast; not having any friends, being an outcast, having uninvolved parents, and being depressed and made fun of all through high school can do that to you. But now that I was an adult and I had CC, who, although he was almost 30 could be just as immature as me, I was trying to live the childhood I never had. Well, I was just more outspoken and carefree and wild I should say, not all quiet and depressed all the time.
I continued pouting and unconciously tugged on my right gauge. I knew he couldn't withstand my puppy dog eyes for long.
"Not gonna work this time," he said with a shake of his head. He started to walk out of my open garage where I had been spray painting a shirt rainbow colors.
"Did I say congratulations?" I called after him. He paused like I knew he would. "Congratulations, Christian." I walked up to him and wrapped my arms around his waist, encircling him in a bear hug. "You deserve this more than anyone."
He groaned, and I looked up at him. "All right, fine. Come on. I'm meeting them in 30 at the bar down on Main."
I let out a yelp as I followed him out, skipping. Then I stopped. If I was going to meet Black Veil Brides, I was going to have to start acting my age. Especially Andy, who I had the biggest celebrity crush on, and who seemed to have a thing for older women. Well, I was older, and I was going to show it, even if it meant not being my new child-like self.
