I Tried

I woke up to a silent house. I walked down the stairs into the kitchen and found a note from Jaxon.
'I had to go to work early, and I dropped Danni off at her work, Nellie said to call her when you wake up she wanted to take you shopping. Be home by 3. -Jax
I went back to my room to call Nellie. She would be here in about 2 hours. Great thats plenty of time to get ready. I took a shower, ate breakfast, straightened my hair, put on my makeup, pulled on a pair of black skinny jeans, put on a red and black plaid shirt and buttoned it up just enough so my black bra wasn't showing ;), and finall put on my old locket that was given to me at my mother's funeral. The very memory of being at the funeral and seeing my mother's body lying dead in a giant coffin made me shiver, but that story is for later. I walked into the kitchen and waited for Nellie to show up. About 5 minutes later I heard a car honk and knew that she had arrived. I walked up to her shiny black volvo.
"Nice car Nellie, when did you get the money for this baby?" I asked knowing that Nellie wasn't one for saving money.
"I used the money my aunt gave me for college to buy this sweetie, and my own apartment." She giggled
"When did you move out of your aunt's place?"
"About 2 weeks after I was released." She looked down. I guess the rethinking of how almost everyone of us were almost sent to juvie left her speechless. I guess I shouldn't keep you in the dark about what happened.

Well, when I was about 13 or 14, Nellie, Jolene, Avery and I use to be total sweethaerts until Billy moved in. Billy was my ex boyfriend, who had a reputation for getting into HUGE trouble. He moved her with his dad Hank and little brother Richard (Billy's mother divorced Hank a loooooong time ago and is know in prison for multiple counts of abuse and drug dealing). From the very beginning I had a crush on Billy. He was so hot, and mysterious, I couldn't even control myself when he asked me out in high school. But, that was one of the worst mistakes of my life. You see Billy had connections with people from other towns who made big bucks selling drugs. Billy instantly got me hooked on them, then Jolene got into them, then Avery, then fnally Nellie too. We would go to parties and get high and wasted. Billy even got poor Richy into drugs, the poor kid. For a long time Billy, Richy, the girls and I would take any chances to get high, the last memory I have of this awful life was at a party on our junior year. Billy's friend Damon threw a giant party and invited us and all of his drugie friends. I got so drunk that night I hardly remeber anything that happened, except for one thing. You see Billy and I were so lustful for each other that sometimes when we got drunk I would wake up the next morning and see that we had sex. Billy was always sex hungry and I wasn't all for it. Anyways that night at the party Billy took me to Damon's parents room where he tried to get me to have sex with him but I was sober enough to tell him no, but he wasn't happy with that. Billy laid me down on the bed and pinned my arms down and I couldn't get him off of me. I started screaming but nobody came to my rescue. I felt so helpless and scared. Then I saw Richy come in behind Billy.
"Billy! What are you doing to her?!"
"What does it look like I'm having drunk sex with my girlfirend."
"GET OFF ME YOU DICK!"
"Bro get off her, you're hurting her!"
"Get the fuck out of here Rich! I'll do what I please with her!"
The next thing I remeber Richy jumped on Billy and threw him off me. I saw the brothers throw each other around the room, I took this advantage and ran out of the room. I tried to find one of the girls but I couldnt find anyone of them. The next thing I remeber is the cops busting us and arresting everyone at the party.

"Ronnie? Ronnie!" Nellie snapped me back into reality. "Ronnie we're here."
I got out of the car and walked next to Nellie as we browsed through multiple shops and bought a ton of clothes, jewelry, and other things. We stopped and had salads for lunch.
"It's so good that you're back Ronnie, we all missed you very much."
"I missed you guys too, I'm so glad to be back home and not stuck in rehab."
We finished our lunch and got up to walk back to the car. We bought a couple of coffees on the way and started talking about setting up for Danni's graduation party. Then I suddenly bumped into someone which knocked me on my ass.
"Ouch!"
"Ronnie are you okay?"
"I'm fine Nell, help me up?"
"Sure, I'm so sorry si- Oh my God!"
"What is it Nell?"
Without a word Nellie pointed my head in the direction of the stranger I bumped into. LORDY JESUS CHRIST I BUMPED INTO ANDY BIERSACK!!!!
"I'm so sorry! I didn't look to see where I was going." I said helping him off the ground
He looked at me for a moment then gave me a little smile, "Oh, uh that's ok I'm fine."
I said nothing, all I could do is look into his amazing blue eyes and wonder what an amazing person like him would be doing here.

"Um, I'm Andy and you are?"
"Im Ronnie and this is Nellie."
"Hi Andy," Oh Nellie'
"Well um judging by your friend here, I guess you've heard of Black veil Brides?"
"Yeah your band is awesome It's the best."
"Thnaks Ronnie" He smiled
I didn't say anything and neither did he, we just looked at each other and smiled, and Nellie was hyperventalating in his presence.
"Umm well I have to go I have soundcheck in half an hour. Would you guys want to come to our concert tonight?"
"Um sure we'd love to. but umm I dont think our other friends would forgive us if we went without them." Nell giggled
"well I have twoo extras if thats enough?"
"Thats perfect Andy thank you"
"Welcome, see you girls tonight,"
"BYE ANDY! .... He likes you Ronnie."
"What are you talking bout?"
"he couldn't keep his eyes off of you, ANDY BIERSACK LOVES VERONICA STONE!"
"Oh will you shut up Nell, come lets go home I'll call Av and Jo on the way"
"Ok Mrs. Biersack"
"i'm gonna kick your ass if you say that one more time."
