Love And Other Drugs

“Luxe! Char! Lulu!” Someone called their names as the girls walked out of the venue and Luxe looked down towards the end of the alley and noticed two girls and a guy were waving at them. Alex tried to move her along to get on the bus, but Luxe only smiled, nodded her head towards the fans and soon enough all five girls were walking towards the squealing group.

“Hey guys! Enjoy the show?” Luxe asked as she stopped infront of the two girls and took their CDs so that she could sign them.

“We LOVED it! You and Andy are so beyond cute together!” One girl with red hair giggled and took her CD back after the other girls all finished signing it. Luxe tried to keep her smile on her lips, but it was hard because every time she thought about that kiss and the aftermath it made her want to cry.

“Yeah! Are you guys dating?” The other girl asked and Luxe only smirked and moved to take a picture with them.

“So what’s your favorite song?” Char interjected, saving Luxe from having to answer any uncomfortable questions. Luxe mouthed a ‘thank you’ to the guitarist and noticed that the girls seemed to be thinking it over.

“I LOVE I’m No Good, but the entire album is amazing!” The red head said and her friend seemed to agree.

“I really like Broken-the duet with Andy. Your voices sound really awesome blended together like that and you guys do a really awesome job singing it live.” The guy said and Luxe only nodded her head. She was tired, she wanted to get out of these stage clothes and in to her pajamas and she wanted to drink-a lot.

“Well guys we’re really happy you had a good time and we’ll see you next time!” Luxe said as she gave the three kids hugs and then began to walk off towards the bus.


The bus was there, a comfort and right behind their bus sat their trailer, which was being loaded with their equipment and merch. Behind the trailer sat the BVB bus and trailer and behind that the Roadie bus and extra trailer-they were a huge caravan and Luxe smiled as she stopped at the steps and looked back towards the BVB bus. She could faintly hear laughter coming from inside and she only wished that they could all get along so that they could get to know one another. She had been able to get to know some of the members-CC and Jinxx seemed to be the most willing to actually put differences aside but even then they were still distant.

Luxe felt someone gently push her and turning her head slightly she saw that the other girls were behind her and that Char was pushing her forward. The cool air of the bus almost slapped her in the face as Luxe finished getting up the steps and she made a beeline for her bunk. This would be the first night of her sleeping on a moving vehicle and while she was nervous about it, Luxe figured she might as well get over it. Char was behind her, those nimble yet calloused fingers quickly undoing her tight corset and Luxe laughed as she noticed that they formed a line all the way down the hall.

Char was behind Luxe, Mads behind Char, then Pixie and last was Lulu-until all of the girls were free of their restraints. Her skin felt itchy from where the bones of the corset had pressed in. The girls all laughed together as they quickly changed and Luxe forwent a bra, her medium sized breasts feeling free for once that day.

A black t-shirt, a pair of Batman sleep shorts and her knee high socks made Luxe feel right at home as she walked towards the front of the bus and took a seat at the kitchen table. Her laptop was sitting there where she had left it earlier before they went to soundcheck. As the laptop booted up, Luxe noticed that Char was fixing drinks in the kitchen and soon enough she had been passed a tall glass filled with Jack and Coke and there was even a cute little stripped straw sticking out of it. The first sip was pure heaven and Luxe could instantly feel her body relax. She logged on to her Twitter and found that she had over four hundred new followers and way too many @’s for her liking.


@DollBaby: @LuxeDolly and @AndyBVB are so fucking adorable! Pictures from the show to come!

@Jinxxed4Lyfe: just got home from the @HDolls and @BlackVeilBrides show and I have to say that I LOVE @LuxeDolly and @AndyBVB together!

@LuxeyGirl92: @LuxeDolly and @CharRousse can I please get some style tips because you girls were looking amazing tonight xoxo


It went on and on and Luxe felt her heart skip a beat every time a mention of she and Andy popped up on the screen. It seemed like a lot of people thought they were a legit couple and Luxe knew that Andy was probably seeing the same thing all over his own Twitter. She didn’t understand-sure they kissed and sure they had gone out on one date, but did that really make them a couple? Exiting her Twitter, Luxe moved on to her Instagram and she felt sick to her stomach and quickly took a sip of her drink. Over 2,000 likes and more than 150 comments on her before show picture of she and Pixie with their hair all sticking up, but that wasn’t what bothered her.


@BVBDolleyWolly: @LuxeDoll and @AndyBVB are cute, but I feel like he could do so much better

@BVBGurl1995: @LuxeDoll I think you’re pretty but @AndyBVB is MINE!


Comment after comment and a lot of them were like this. Good lord it was terrifying at how angry some of these girls were at her and quickly Luxe signed on to Pixie’s tumblr. The girls had an official The Hollywood Dolls tumblr that they could sign on to, but that was monitored by Alex and she felt safer looking around on Pixie’s. Luxe felt the bile rise in her throat as she typed in The Hollywood Dolls and looked over their tag.

Some pictures from the concert had come up on the screen, but there were also pictures of she and Andy from their date over a week ago when they had gone out to that fancy restaurant. There were no photos of Luxe dumping her pasta on his head, but there were plenty of pictures of Luxe laughing, grinning and of Andy giving her that smirk that he got sometimes. It looked like they were a couple from afar, but the conversation they had been having was anything but nice.


“Fuck. My. Life.” Luxe groaned as she quickly downed her drink and moved to get up and get another one. Char and Mads were both sitting on the couch, playing a video game and they both looked up at her as she moved around the kitchen.

“What’s up buttercup?” Char asked as she watched the small singer moved around the kitchen and pour almost the rest of the bottle of Jack in to her glass. Luxe had been stressed, the kiss with Andy had been a disaster and all of the girls were feeling exhausted right now.

“I’m never going to be able to get away from the little shit…” Luxe sighed as she flopped back down in her seat and Char moved to look at the computer screen that Luxe was pointing her way. All five girls moved to huddle around the computer and what Char saw made her stomach hurt.


Picture after picture was of Andy and Luxe, kissing, laughing, smiling at one another and of course there were videos of their performance cropping up all over tumblr. Char understood now why Luxe looked so miserable and she quickly sat down next to the blonde girl and wrapped her tattooed arms around Luxe and held her. The other girls all whispered quietly to one another and soon enough Pixie and Lulu were sitting across the table from them and Mads was sitting on the corner of Char’s right knee. They hadn’t all gotten along at first and even now Mads got fed up with Pixie and her constant positive attitude, but they were still sisters and had to be there for one another.


“I’m gonna go…” Mads said and Char only reached out a hand and grabbed for Mads’ long red and black hair. The wild drummer stopped moving and only growled at her best friend. Luxe was now half way done with her second drink and they hadn’t even gotten down the road yet.

“And where do you think you’re gonna go?” Char asked as she held on tightly and Mads only growled at her.

“Over to that fucking bus to put a stop to all of this.” She hissed and Char only shook her head. It wouldn’t do any good because Andy didn’t have much to do with this shit anyways. He was suffering almost as much as Luxe was.

“I really don’t think he’s got much to do with this Mads.” Lulu spoke up in between sips of her own drink. All of the girls were drinking, no matter their age and they were all feeling pretty tipsy in this moment.

“Yeah well I still want to get over there and give them all a piece of my mind.” Mads said as she crossed her arms over her chest and noticed that Luxe was looking at her.

“I have a better idea…” The blonde and teal haired girl smirked at them all and soon enough the girls were all up and following Luxe towards the back of the bus.


The singer quickly opened up a cabinet that was hidden in the wall by the bathroom and Mads only smirked as she looked inside and figured out what Luxe was thinking. Each girl took a handful of toilet rolls and soon enough they were running down the bus steps, careful to stay out of site of the driver as he would alert Alex to what they had planned. The night air was cool against her skin, but it only fueled Luxe to keep moving as they all ran back towards BVB’s bus and slowed down as they got closer. The bus was older than theirs and the windows were capable of opening and Luxe stopped as she heard her name and then laughter.

The girls stayed as quiet as they could as they moved to stand on either side of the bus and watched for Luxe’s signal. She looked right and then left and after seeing that no one was around she laughed lowly and then let the roll in her hand fly over the top of the bus. Pixie and Lulu were standing on the other side and they soon rolled both Luxe’s and Char’s rolls underneath and then the process was repeated.

Being slightly drunk-or very drunk in Luxe’s case-gave the girls just the right amount of courage to keep going and soon enough the black BVB bus was covered almost entirely in toilet paper. The laughter inside was dying down into a serious conversation and Luxe could just barely see two of the five people inside. Andy was sitting at the kitchen table and his face was glowing blue so she knew he was looking at a computer.


“What the fuck?!” Someone called out and soon enough a head with long black hair popped out of an open window and the girls were all laughing as CC stared down at them with wide eyes.

“Just incase you guys run out!” Char called up to the drummer and soon enough more heads were popping out of the window and Luxe could see that Andy was looking over CC’s shoulder at her. He looked annoyed, but there was a small bit of playfulness in his eyes.

“This means war Dolls!” Ashley called after the group of girls as they ran off towards their own bus and the guys all watched them go.

“Bring it on!” Luxe shouted out in to the night before she finished running up the steps and the door shut behind her. It would be war, but in war sometimes you win and sometimes you lose.

Never both.

Notes

What tricks could the guys have up their sleeves for the Dolls? What about Andy and Luxe's new found fanbase? People either seem to love them or hate them-how do you feel?

Hope you guys had an awesome Halloween! Review<3
