Far And Away.

Flora bit her lip in an attempt to keep from laughing while the camera was rolling. Chance and Andy had decided to start a comedy series on YouTube and it seemed that every video was getting funnier.


This time around, Andy and Chance were in front of the camera doing an interview to apply to be Captain Cold's roommate.

"I'm not even going to pay you, I won't even go under that delusion.." Chance shook his head before looking over at Andy.

"Uh- and when I say eight dollars, I mean like 3 dollars and then eight dollars worth of laffy taffy." Andy said, holding a pause before all three of them let out loud laughs. It was classic Andy.

"Oh my god.." She chuckled as Chance stopped the camera.

"This is becoming ridiculous." He laughed.

"But it's soo funny." Flora giggled falling down on the couch behind the camera.

Andy and her had come to some sort of agreement. Flora didn't talk about college until she chose and that was the end of it. He didn't want to make her choose anything for her and she knew that.

"..ANCIENT WICKEN LORE SAYS THAT IF YOU HIT SOMEONE 23 TIMES IN THE HEAD WITH A FIRE EXTINGUISHER THAT IT WOULD HEAL THEM, OKAY!?" Andy screamed in Chances face while Flora buried her face in her hands.


They filmed for another hour or so, knowing how many bloopers they'd have. Sometime during it all Andy's phone began to ring. His face fell into a frown at the name that had popped up on
his phone.


Scout.

"Uh- guys- I'll be right back." He swallowed, standing up. Once he was out of ear shot he pressed the little green button. "Hello?"

"Andy, it's so good to hear your voice." He closed his eyes and shook his head.

"What the fuck do you want?" He seethed.

"I want you." She said. "I miss you so much."

"Scout it's been a year and a half. I moved on.." He said. "You can't do this to me."

"Andy, you've never loved someone like you love me. I know it's true. Just come to LA, be with me."

"N-no." He cleared his throat and shook his head even though she couldn't see it. "No. Not again. I won't have you drag me around again. I'm tired of it."

She was silent for a moment. "I know you still love me."

"Scout, I fucking hate you!" Andy seethed. "You don't understand how much you hurt me!"

"How many times do I have to say I'm sorry!?" Scout was pleading now and just hearing her voice sickened Andy.

"You just need to leave me alone. I'm in love with someone else and it's real. And not that shitty love we had, real love." Andy shook his head again. "You can't have me again. Ever. And I hope the fact fucking rips you apart."

With that Andy hung the phone up and dropped it on the floor before following after it. He drew his knees to his chest and looked down sullenly.

A few seconds later she felt a pair of skinny arms wrap around his shoulders. He leaned back, feeling Flora's chest against his back.

"I'm so sorry Andy.." She whispered, her chin resting in his neck.

"I'm just so fucking tired of her shit. I'm happy now and she just wants to fuck with my life.." He groaned, turning so his face pressed into her hair.

"I'm pretty sure after that phone call you'll be left alone." She chuckled, breathing in his masculine scent. Mint and smoke- that was something she would always associate with Andy.

"I love you, Flor. God, I love you." He swallowed. "Please, never leave me."

"I'll try." She whispered in his ear, leaving a few soft kisses on the chord of his neck.

He stayed silent after that, just staring in front of him as Flora held him tightly to her.

"I love you, too."
