What It Is To Burn

“So Andy, if Dess was a Disney Princess-which one would she be…” Bryan asked and Dess laughed as Andy looked from the interviewer and over to her before looking into the camera.


They had been there for over an hour and Odessa had soon realized that this was probably the funnest interview she was going to do ever. Bryan asked the most odd and off the wall questions and she and Andy were enjoying joking around with one another trying to answer them. They were being honest, but there was a layer of joking and teasing that made the interview more special. Thankfully they had avoided any of the more private questions, but Dess could tell that they were coming.

It’s not that she and Andy were embarrassed or ashamed of their sex life-they both enjoyed it immensely, but they were also very private people. Andy’s fans were rabid nearly 85% of the time and neither he nor Dess wanted to give them any more ammo to throw at the couple. Dess shook her head to clear her thoughts and she smiled as Andy looked down at her, his teeth grinding down on his lip ring as he thought about his answer.


“Well I know she loves Little Mermaid, but she always makes me think of Rapunzel.” Andy said and Dess cocked an eyebrow at him and shrugged her shoulders.

“You always remind me of Pocahontas so I guess we’re even…” She said and Andy looked hurt as he looked into the camera and started to pout.

“Yeah well you know how much I love to paint with all of those colors of the wind…” Andy said, a smile playing on his lips as he leaned down and kissed the top of her head.

“Okay Dess-if Andy was a Batman Villain…which one would he be?” Bryan asked and Dess felt her eyes grow wide as she looked from the camera and then up to Andy.

Shit-that was a hard one.

“I-uh-The Joker.” She said quickly and she closed her eyes slightly as Andy stood next to her silently looking down at her with a smirk on his lips.

“The Joker-okay, well I guess that’s appropriate.” He justified and Dess heaved a sigh of relief as Bryan just laughed and turned to Andy.

“Andy-same question…if Dess was a female Batman Villain which one would she be?” Andy looked down at her, his eyes squinting as he took in her innocent smile and doe eyed stare.

“Well if I’m The Joker than she would have to be Harley Quinn.” Andy said and Dess nodded her head softly-she could accept that.

“Not Catwoman?” Bryan asked and both Dess and Andy sighed. It was always rough talking about Batman with people who weren’t fanatics like they were.

“If he was Batman then Catwoman would be an appropriate choice…” Dess explained and Bryan still looked lost.

“Just give it up man…you’ll probably never get it.” Andy laughed as he clapped Bryan on the back and the interviewer just gave them both a strange smile before he looked down to pick out another question.

“Moving on then-Dess how is Andy in bed?” Bryan asked and Dess only smirked at the interviewer as she crossed her arms over her chest and looked up at Andy.

“Terrible-he snores constantly and usually I have to go sleep on the couch.” She joked and Andy reached out, tickling her sides as Dess giggled and tried to move away from him slightly.

“Yeah well at least I don’t talk in my sleep like some people…” Andy said with a pointed look her way and Dess only laughed softly as she nudged him and they both turned to Bryan. The poor interviewer was just standing there-he looked like he didn’t know what should be said at this point.

“That was one time!” Dess defended and Andy stuck his tongue out at her and she reached over and pinched his butt quickly.

“You talk in your sleep Dess?” Bryan asked and Dess felt her cheeks flame up. She hadn’t been sleeping well lately and because of that and the fact that she had so much on her mind…well she had been talking in her sleep.

“Only when I have things on my mind. Mean!” She turned to Andy, a pout on her lips and he only shook his head as he leaned down and pressed his lips to hers.

“So Andy-what is your favorite sex position?” Bryan asked and Dess only raised her eyebrow and crossed her arms over her chest. Andy didn’t look very amused, but he put on a small smile and looked down at her before looking in to the camera.

“Anything involving the gorgeous Odessa Montgomery is my favorite.” His tone was serious and Dess only shoved his shoulder as she smirked at Bryan. He wasn’t going to get his answers as easily with personal questions like that.

“Dess-same question. When you look at Andy, what sex position do you see yourself in with him?” Dess coughed, holding a hand up to her mouth and Andy gave her a concerned look.

“All of them-we have tried every single one that you could ever think of and they are all spectacular!” Dess laughed and Bryan groaned as Andy high fived her and they both laughed into the camera.

“Alright alright I get the hint. So guys-what is the plan for the next six months?” Bryan asked and Andy held his hands out-signaling Dess that it was her floor to take in that moment. He could hardly remember what day it was, let alone try to think about what he would be doing come December.

“Um-well we are heading back to Virginia after Warped and I personally will be in full on Wedding Mode. Andy has some appearances in LA. The wedding is on Halloween, our Honeymoon is the next day and we will be gone for a week and then it’s back on tour with Bullet For My Valentine. Did I miss anything babe?” Dess asked and Andy bit down on his lip ring as he thought everything over.

“No-no I think you got everything.” Andy said and smiled as Bryan just looked at the two of them. They were perfect together-almost too perfect and Bryan smirked as he looked down at his questions.

“So Dess-what is one thing about Andy that you can’t stand and be honest.” Dess glared at the blonde interviewer as she chewed on her lip and looked up at Andy and thought for a moment.

“Um-well Andy is quite the whiner. You are!” At her first sentence Andy had begun to pout and moved over to stand on the opposite side of Bryan and now the interviewer was in the middle of the couple.

“Alright. Andy-same question. There has to be something about Dess that just bothers you…” Bryan said and Andy got an evil gleam in his eyes as he looked over at Dess and then faced the camera.

“Odessa has a habit of being incredibly controlling when it comes to certain things. Like our house, Christmas decorating and where we go on vacations.” Andy said as he avoided her burning gaze and if looks could kill he knew he would be a dead man right at that very moment.

“That is not true! I’m just a planner and you procrastinate!” Dess defended as she glared at Andy and then turned her cold stare to Bryan-he had started all of this.

“Okay okay-on a lighter note. If Andy was a pop song, Dess, what song would he be?” Bryan asked and Dess only smirked as she thought it over for a minute.

“I would say he would be the song Cups…you know the one Anna Kendrick sings in Pitch Perfect.” Dess laughed as Andy glared at her and then shook his blonde head as he scowled into the camera.

“God I hate that song!” Andy said as he stomped his foot and Dess only laughed as she patted his head softly and then turned to Bryan. He had no idea what he had gotten himself in to.

“Why do you hate that song so much man?” Bryan asked and Andy only sighed as he ran a hand across the back of his head and placed another cigarette between his teeth.

“I sing it-“

“-a lot” Andy finished and Dess only stuck her tongue out at him and smirked at Bryan.

“Could you sing it now?” The interviewer asked and Dess laughed as Andy groaned and rubbed his knuckles against his sun burnt forehead. He hated this song and he hated that Bryan was encouraging her to sing it-again.

“Sure-do you have a cup?” Dess asked and Bryan laughed as Jon handed over his empty McDonalds cup and Dess only stuck her tongue out at Andy once more before she placed the cup face down on the table and began to clap.

“I’ve got my ticket for the long way around. Who’ll buy the whiskey for the way? And I would like some sweet company and I’m leaving tomorrow what do ya say?” Dess sang softly as she clapped and tapped the cup to beat. Andy looked down at her and even though he hated this song-Dess always sang it beautifully and in the fading sun she looked perfect standing there before him.


Andy smirked as Dess continued to sing and he felt proud of her in that moment. She wasn’t a singer-even though he told her time and again that she should be, but Dess always said she loved to be in the background and watch him perform. He had pulled her on stage a few times and singing up there with her had given him a high like he had never felt before.

She filled him up with a light that he had never had before in his life and as he looked down at her-standing there in her cut off shorts and ripped Pierce The Veil shirt, Andy felt himself fall in love with her all over again. She was so simple and pure standing there with her moss green eyes partially closed and as she finally finished the song Andy leaned in. He pressed his lips against the top of her head and he smiled as she made a content sigh and looked up at him.


“That was awesome. Andy you should be really proud of her.” Bryan said as he looked down at his questions and Dess just looked up at Andy, nodding her head softly with a doe eyed look on her face.

“Oh I am. Don’t you want to know what pop song I think fits Dess?” Andy asked and Bryan motioned for him to go ahead. Dess cringed as Andy smiled down at her.

“Oh God…” Dess groaned as she covered her face with a ringed hand and waited for the axe to fall.

“Baby Got Back! That’s the song!” Andy laughed and he knew that Dess was turning beet red before he even looked down at her.

“May I ask why?” Bryan said and Dess looked up at them, focusing her eyes on the camera and she just shook her head.

“Turn around babe…” Andy said and Dess just shook her head. She squealed as Andy scooped her up and threw her over his shoulder like a bag of flour. She knew her butt was to the camera and Dess kicked her legs out to try and cover her exposed ass.

“Andy! Put me down and Bryan stop laughing at me!” Dess shouted and Andy only smacked her butt lightly as he let her down and then winced as she let her fist fall against his shoulder.

“Alright well we are almost done guys, but I do have one more question for the both of you. Out of all the songs on your three albums-which one is your favorite?” Bryan asked and Andy looked down at Dess and then smiled. It was a hard question-almost like asking him which child was his favorite. Andy motioned for Dess to go ahead of him-he wanted some time to think things through.

“Shit-uh…um-fuck! I guess if I had to just pick one it would be Wretched and Divine, but it changes every once and awhile!” Dess defended and Andy looked over at her with a shocked expression. He would have guessed either Done For You or Lost It All since he had written them with her in mind. Andy chewed on his lip as he looked down at Dess and then off towards the camera.

“Shit-I can’t choose man, but I will say that I do have my favorites and I want everyone out there to write in-physically write Bryan a letter explaining to him which one is your particular favorite Black Veil Brides song!” Andy said as he smiled into the camera and then all three of them burst into laughter.

“Alright well thanks for coming guys and Dess it was awesome to have you here with us this time around!” Bryan said as they all faced the camera and then Bryan quickly moved to shut everything off.


Dess stood off to the side as Bryan and Andy talked and joked for a few minutes until finally he walked over to her, wrapping an arm around her shoulders as they exited the tent and headed back over towards the bus. She and Andy embraced before they reached the steps and Dess smiled. Doing this interview had been so much fun, but deep down she felt like maybe it had been a mistake. Like maybe it would cement her even more into just being Andy’s girlfriend.
