I woke up the next morning and felt Andy's arms around me. Smiling, I looked over at him. He looked so different when he slept, so young, and innocent. A smirk suddenly appeared on his face.

"Why don't you take a picture, it'll last longer," he said, as his eyes snapped open and I felt a blush creep onto my cheeks.

"Shut up," I huffed, trying to get out of his grip, but he just held on tighter. "Andy let me go, now."

"Whyyyyyy?" he whined, as he loosened his arms.

"Because, I need to shower and get changed and ready for the day," I said, getting up. He got up as well and watched me as I grabbed my clothes from my bag, heading over to the bathroom of the bus. He followed and I gave him a confused look as I reached the door.

"Uh Andy, don't you have to shower as well?"

"Yeah I thought we could go together, to save water and all that," he said, as I rolled my eyes.

"You are such a guy. No," I said, pushing the door closed as I heard him sigh from the other side. Laughing, I stepped into the shower and let the hot water relax my body. I thought about last night and immediately remembered the weird text that I had gotten from the anonymous person. I had no idea what it was but it freaked me out and I began to get nervous at the thought of it. Who was that? And who was... watching me? And why?

I turned the shower off and dried myself off, and then slipped on my clothes for the day. I was wearing purple skinny jeans, black leather boots, and one of our very own band t-shirts. I couldn't believe that I had seen our merchandise in Hot Topic, it was so cool!

I went to the BVB bus and saw everyone there was already ready, including Andy.

"So guys," said Alexa. "We have until 3pm - which gives us 4 hours - to do whatever we want before we have to drive to our next venue."

"Which is?" inquired Ashley.

"Michigan," she replied. "But what do you guys wanna do today?"

Sammi spoke up, "I know! I saw a really cool park with a big waterfall and it looked really beautiful. I wanted to take some pictures, but if you guys don't want to come it's alright."

In the end we all agreed to go to the park, because none of us had been anywhere peaceful for a while. I strolled through the park with Andy; everyone else had gone off into little groups.

"This is really beautiful, Sammi was right," I said, looking at the trees around us. This park was massive!

"Not as beautiful as you," I heard Andy say and I started to giggle.

"Oh my god Andy, I never knew how dorky you really were!"

"Hey, the dork is offended," he said, clutching his chest.

"Aw, I'm sorry. And thank you, you aren't so bad looking yourself," I winked as I gave him a kiss. We stood there, hugging, for the next five minutes, just relaxing our minds.

"Hey, Sammi just texted," Andy said, looking at his phone. "They're all at the waterfall, should we head back?"

"Yeah," I took his hand and we went back to the waterfall, which took about 10 minutes of walking. When we reached there, we saw everyone scattered around the grass while Sammi was taking pictures of things aorund them.

"Hey guys!" she said brightly as we waved back to her. Andy went to talk to Ashley on the grass, while Sammi continued to take pictures. I walked over to the other side of the waterfall - to my surprise it was a lot deeper and the water was moving much faster. Suddenly, I felt the presence of someone behind me. Thinking it was just Andy, I continued to stare at the water. I looked at the reflection, and to my horror, it wasn't the tall, familiar looking frame that I was expecting.

From what I could see, the person was shorter than Andy, and he was dressed in all black, complete with a ski mask to hide his face. I didn't dare to turn around, in fear of him realizing that I knew he was there. I held my breath as I thought about how I could get out of this situation. I couldn't call for help, nor could I text one of the guys to tell them that I was in trouble. Suddenly, I felt the person give me a hard push, sending me straight into the water.

The freezing waterfall swallowed me up. I tried my best to get to the surface. When I managed, I screamed out Andy's name, but the current pulled me back under before I could take another breath. It was pulling me deeper and deeper and I couldn't get back up. My brain clouded and all I saw was a figure moving towards me before I blacked out.

*Andy's POV*

I had gone to talk to Ash for a while, and to rest on the grass. Sammi was busy taking pictures while everyone else was talking. I looked around, but I realized that I couldn't see Scarlette anywhere.

"Hey guys, have any of you seen-" Just then, I heard a piercing scream - and the person was screaming my name. Instantly, I realized that it was Scarlette's voice and my face paled. Everyone stood up suddenly, worried looks on their faces.

"-Scarlette," I finished, before running around the waterfall, towards the direction that the scream had come from. I saw that the water here was way deeper and had a stronger current, and my pulse started to quicken. I saw someone being dragged underwater by the current and recognized Scarlette's purple hair. Without thinking, I jumped into the water to save her. It was freezing cold and it was making my feet and hands numb. I could hardly see either, and I was trying my best to fight against the current. I managed to grab her arm and pull her up to the surface, when I realized that she had gone unconscious. Jinxx and Jake pulled me and Scarlette out of the water, and they put her on the grass, where she lay unmoving.

"Guys," I said, my lip trembling. Sammi was already calling 911 while Ash was trying to calm down an extremely worried and tearful Alexa.

An ambulance pulled up and they tried to bring Scarlette back but it wasn't working. With grim looks on their faces, they put her onto a stretcher and drove off at high speed to the nearest hospital. We all ran to the car and piled in, speeding and following the ambulance. Once we got to the hospital, I rushed through the doors where the receptionist looked at me.

"Hello, my name is Andy Biersack," I said, panting. "An ambulance came in about 10 minutes ago with a girl, do you know what happened to her?" She typed a few things into her computer and looked up at me.

"Miss Scarlette Moore?"

"Yes," I said, nodding my head vigourously.

"She has just been checked into room 324. They managed to get the excess water out of her system but she's asleep right now, you may go see her but one person at a time please," she said, eyeing the whole group that had walked up behind me.

We made our way over to room 324 and stood outside.

"Andy, go," Alexa sniffled, her eyes bloodshot.

"No, why don't you go first?" I said, although I really wanted to see her. But Alexa was her best friend.

"I want you to go," she said, as I nodded and opened the door. What I saw wasn't the worst, Scarlette was in a hospital gown, sleeping of course, her hair still slightly damp and a small cut visible on her forehead. I could hear the steady beeping of one of the machines by her bed.

"Who might you be sir?" said a voice as I jumped and turned around. It was one of the doctors.

"Oh! Hi, I'm Andy Biersack, I'm Scarlette's boyfriend," I said as he nodded, understanding.

"Miss Moore had a narrow escape, you and your friends did a great job of saving her. She should come around soon, but she'll have to be under strict rest - so not a lot of running around and she must not be put under a lot of stress."

"Okay, when can she leave the hospital though?" I asked, looking at the clock. It was 3:15, we should have left 15 minutes ago for Michigan.

"As soon as she wakes up we can discharge her. But remember what I said, Mr. Biersack," he looked at me as he walked through the door and left me alone with Scarlette. I walked over to her and stroked her cheek, her skin was cold and pale but I could feel her pulse which made me relieved.

"Scar... what happened? Please wake up soon, I miss your voice," I said, looking at her. She didn't move. I sighed, deciding it would be best if I let someone else have a turn to visit her. As I was about to leave, I felt her fingers tighten slightly on my hand. I tuned back and saw her gorgeous brown eyes looking at me, confused.

"How did I get here?" she whispered, her voice weak.

"You almost drowned Scar. I saved you and we brought you here."

"We?"

"Yeah, everyone's here."

"Thank you Andy. I owe you so much. I - I love you."

My heart melted at those three magic words. I never thought that she would be the first one to say it. She looked nervous.

"Please say something..." she said, her cuteness making me want to hug her and never let go.

"Scarlette, I love you too. So much. Ever since you spit coffee onto me the first time you met me," I said and smiled. She looked relieved as she smiled back, laughing a little.

"You're never going to let that go, are you?" she mumbled, looking slightly annoyed.

"Nope," I said as I walked over to her and kissed her lightly on her lips. Kissing the top of her head once more, I left the room.

Once everyone had had their turn talking to her, she was allowed to leave the hospital. It was 4pm and we could still make it to Michigan by 10. So I carried a very drowsy Scarlette back to the tour bus which had stopped in front of the hospital, and put her down in her bunk. I climbed in next to her as she put her arms around me and buried her face into my chest. She fell asleep as I lay down with her, and eventually so did I. I held her tightly, never wanting to let go. I didn't know how she had ended up in the water before, but if it was a person's fault I was going to find them and make sure that they couldn't eat properly again.
