Our Heart's Beating (COMPLETED)
Chapter Twenty Two
VIV’S P.O.V.
TWO WEEKS LATER
I stretch awake and glace at the clock; 4:21am it blares, I can barely see it.
"Ow" I say at the stab of pain that came from falling out of bed.
A head pops out from over the bed.
A head with strands of hair sticking out at all angles
"Aye, did you just fall outta bed? Are you okay?" CC asks.
"You look like a d-dickhead" I say, laughing.
Then something hits me: I am in CC’s bedroom, in his bed; well I was in his bed.
Scrabbling back like and awkward crab, I crash back against the wall and I run my hands over my clothes. Same shorts, same top, same socks.
"O-Okay, it’s alright"
That’s the second time that I thought about that.
Well then.
CC looks a little confused; he even blinks a few times.
That’s my CC.
I crawl back over to the bed and haul myself up onto it.
He looks at me with a placid expression, as though he can’t figure out what’s going on, he probably has a bitch of a hangover; for the second time in a week; suck shit, mate.
-
He bundles me up in his arms and brushes the hair out of my face.
I like it when he does that.
"You look like shit" he says out of the blue.
"S-same to y-you" I reply.
He laughs. "We can look like shit together then"
I lie on my back and he worms closer to me.
-
We whisper about nothing important until the sun comes up.
As the sun lights up the room, I snuggle closer to him.
Then for a second time in the morning, something hits me.
"H-hey, babe" I say, his eyes meet mine, while his hands trace circles on my arms
"W-when you g-go with BVB, y-you will leave h-here, and get a h-house near the re-recording studio"
His hands stop dead, and his eyes go wide.
"Oh, yeah. Well shit, I didn’t think about that, let’s not think about it until the time comes when I leave" he says softly.
"O-okay" I breathe.
He brings my chin up with his fingers and he smiles at me.
I can’t help but smile back.
"That’s the sexy smile I like to see" he says.
I roll my eyes and he kisses me lightly.
Right in the middle of our kiss, Ashley bursts in.
"ALRIGHT LOVEBIRS KEEP IT PG! RISE AND SHINE" he screams.
CC blinks at him, with the expression less than a brick.
CC’S P.O.V
When we stumble into the kitchen and Ashley makes himself at home on the couch with a cup of coffee in hand.
"Uh, where is e-everyone else?" Viv says, stretching and rubbing the sleep out of her eyes.
"Oh, at Jinxx’s place, something important came up" Ash says vaguely, waving his hand dismissively.
"Oh yeah? W-why aren’t y-you th-there?" Viv presses, trying to sound intimidating even with her stutter,
I think she thinks that something’s up.
I take her hand, reassuringly and flash her toothy, genuine CC grin.
"Chill babe" I tell her.
She purses her lips.
"I’m starving and seeming as I am not as good a cook as you, can you make me something?" I ask.
She tries to look defiant but a smile creeps up on her frown.
"That’s my girl!" I say.
She busies herself in the kitchen, the sound of clanging of pots and pans bouncing off the walls.
I go and sit on the couch, occupying what space Ash hasn’t taken up.
"So Ash" I say in a low voice "what’s so important?"
He takes a deep breath
"Sandra left three days ago, right? And she is doing a record with her new band..."
I don’t get it.
"And?" I say, stretching out the word.
"We have got a record deal as well, meaning, we have to leave and go to the recording studio" he says.
Leave, as in…Leave?
Like go away to somewhere entirely different.
Go somewhere that isn’t remotely near Viv.
"Oh" I say shortly.
"I’m sorry man, but you and I both know that Viv is finishing College, I don’t think Mama Biersack wants another drop-out" Ash says. I nod
"Yeah, dude, I know. There is no way I am letting her drop out either" I say, shaking a bit.
I am leaving her.
I am leaving Viv; after I promised I would never leave her.
I feel like someone has stabbed me, right in the heart.
Ash pats me on the back
"I’ll let you break it to her" and then her walks away.
I close my eyes. "Hey babe?"
She looks up
"I need to leave with BVB" I mumble
"Okay! See you when you when you get b-back" she says, clearly not getting it.
"No, I don’t mean a day trip. I mean move-away leave"
She jerks to a stop, dropping a plate.
"L-l-leave?" she stutters
"Leave" I repeat “leave for good”
