Far And Away.

Andy and Flora walked side by side over to Ashley's house. After Andy pleaded for Flora to come to band practice with him she finally said yes. Of course as friends though, it didn't seem like she'd let that one go.

Every time Andy looked at her his heart leaped. She was stunning, with her rosy red cheeks and pink nose from the burning cold, she looked perfect.

"Are they going to hate me?" Flora asked as they came up to the home. She couldn't help but feel nervous, these were the boys who made up her nickname..

"Of course not." Andy shook his head, "Your amazing, Flor." Something about the way Andg shortened her already-shortened name made Flora smile.

"You hated me a few months ago." She chuckled.

"We've been over this, that's cause I was an idiot." He laughed, opening up the door to the garage.

He had texted the guys saying they were both coming and to be on their best behavior. "Hey guys."

The four boys were spread around the couches, computers in their laps or cellphones in front of their faces.

"Hey." The boy with almond shaped eyes spoke first. "I'm Ashley." Flora smiled.

"Flora." She said, the other guys all smirked at her and Andy.

"Uh this Jake, Jinxx, and CC." Andy said, gesturing to the three other black haired guys in the room. Flora swallowed hard and tried another smile. She couldn't have possibly been more nervous to meet these guys.

"You guys are cute." CC grinned and Flora felt a deep blush paint across her porcelain cheeks.

"We're not dating." She said, definitely.

"Yet." Jake winked at Andy who just rolled his eyes and sat down. He gestured for Flora to sit down next to him. She gratefully did and felt his arm slide around the back of the couch they were on.

"Guys don't be like that." He said, smiling through closed lips.

"Where did your little boyfriend go?" Ashley asked.

"Uh we broke up since he moved." Flora said, awkwardly.

"I'm sorry, oh and Flora?" Jinxx said, and Flora found herself looking back and forth between the four guys a whole lot.

"Yes?" She asked Jinxx.

"Your not that skinny." He said, and everyone around the room nodded. She smiled and looked down at her lap.

"What are you calling me fat?" She giggled, making everyone laugh.

"Of course not." CC smiled at her. She wasn't sure she'd be able to get along with these guys but they seemed nice now that Bret wasn't around.

Now that Andy and her were friends. And possibly something more.

Her lips were still tingling from their kiss earlier and she found herself wanting to kiss him more.

Flora knew she loved Andy: admitting it to him was the problem.

"So you guys want to give Flora here a little show?" Ashley asked. Andy grinned down at her and then back up at his band.

"Let's do it." He jumped up and grabbed the mic from where all their instruments rested.

The guys stood up as well and grabbed their guitars, CC sitting behind his drums.

"What song?" Andy asked.

"How about Perfect Weapon?" Jinxx grinned and Andy only smiled.

"Perfect." He said, looking down at Flora. She was staring at him with wide eyes, taking in all of their instruments.

Suddenly, Andy let out his guttural scream and she looked taken back as the music began to play.

Awake at night you focus
On everyone who's hurt you,
Then write a list of targets,
Your violence lack of virtue.

Leave us alone!

You're on your own!

Watch out!

We are breathin'
While you're sleepin'. Go (go!)
And leave us alone.

The liars cheatin',
Our hearts beatin'. Go (go!)
And now you're on your own.

Here's to your perfect weapon,
Crack bones with blind aggression,
Like birds whose wings are broken,
You live without direction.

Leave us alone!

You're on your own!

We are breathin'

While you're sleepin'. Go (go!)
And leave us alone.

The liars cheatin',
Our hearts beatin'. Go (go!)

And now you're on your own.
Go!
Go!
Go!
Go!

And now you're on your own!

Go!
Go!

And leave us alone!

We are breathin'
While you're sleepin'. Go (go!)
And leave us alone.

The liars cheatin',
Our hearts beatin'. Go (go!)
And now you're on your own.

He sang right to her, screaming and smiling at the same time. No girl had ever made him feel the way she did and Andy would go through hell and back for this girl.

He was positive Flora was the only one for him and she was too. Just a little nervous.
