“So this is goodbye then...,” a bandaged and healed Andy said standing in the terminal with me, waiting for my flight back home. The guys had to stay in the hospital so they couldn’t continue Warped Tour until everyone was well enough to be dispelled. It had been more than a few days and they had a long bus ride a head of them to catch up with the rest of the tour.
“Yeah, I guess,” I said sadly. I didn’t want to leave, especially after what happened, after what I caused.
“WE’LL MISS YOU!” CC screamed as he ran up and hugged me and spun me around.
“CC, god, you’re hurting me, ow, haha”
“Oh sorry,” CC said with a giggle as he sat me down.
“Oh, we wanted to give you something, something to remember us by and to show our gratitude,” Jinxx said, handing me a beautiful black electric guitar with all of their signatures on it along with sentimental paragraphs. I took the guitar in my hand, holding it by the neck, and I started to cry. We had been through so much together, good and bad. I must’ve been crying pretty hard because the next thing I know, I’m in the middle of a big group hug.
“I love you guys so much,” I said in between sobs.
“We love you to Emily,” Ashley said with sadness behind his voice. We all let go of the hug and I wiped my eyes.
“Well, goodbye,” I said, turning toward my flight entrance with my new present in hand. I was almost to the entrance when I heard Andy yell at me to stop. I turn around and the others had already gone, but Andy was jogging up to me. When he reached me, I could really tell he’d been crying.
“I just wanted to give you this.” In his hand was a note with his number written on the bottom. “Read it when you get home,” he said while embracing me in a tight hug, tears falling from both of our faces. We pulled away from each other and just took in the moment for a while. “Oh!” Andy exclaimed, taking off my guitar pick necklace from around his neck and holding it out. “Here’s this back.”
“Andy,” I sighed, “you get to keep that. When I said you need it more than I do, I meant it. It’s yours forever now, so you can remember me.”
“How could I not remember you,” Andy said returning the necklace back around his neck. “I WILL miss you, so much” Andy confessed, rubbing the back of his neck shyly.
“I will miss you too Andy,” tears falling from my face. I let my head fall in sadness. Andy lifted my chin with two fingers so I was looking up at him and he kissed me a sweet and sad goodbye on my forehead, wetting it with his tears. With one last hug, I boarded the plane, continuing to hold on to my unique carry on. As the plane was pulling out of the terminal for takeoff, I could see a tall, dark haired man in the airport window, watching me as the plane took flight.


Walking into my house felt so weird. I had been through so much in such a short period of time. I walked into my room, set my new guitar next to my acoustic one, and flopped down on my bed. I just took in my whole room which I thought I’d possibly never see again. My light yellow colored walls seemed to glow bright as it reflected the sun’s rays streaming in my windows. Next my window, on the other wall, was my BVB posters, 2 were official and 3 just shot from the previous Warped Tour. It looked like a shine of sorts. I seemed so odd to look at those posters now. I was looking at big, blown up photos of my friends; it was just odd. I could see all of the red lipstick kiss marks around Andy’s face on one of the posters. It reminded me of when Andy kissed me that night on the tour bus when playing truth or dare and when he kissed my forehead goodbye only hours ago. It seemed like an eternity. I took the note out of my pocket and read it.

My Saviour Emily, You have no idea how thankful I am for saving my life. I owe you it. You’re a wonderful girl and I care about you… It seems like forever ago when you got beaten by that man and I saved you and you passing out on stage. It seems like forever ago since I’ve learned what you’ve been though… I could never imagine losing my family like that… but please, promise me, no more cutting. Like I said, I care for you, a lot. Please FaceTime me throughout the rest of Warped Tour. I already miss seeing your face. We’ll see each other again soon. Love, your Saviour, Andy 673 – 593 - 24410
