My Romeo

He smiles at me while his friends sit down and join us at the table. Andy moves beside me, blocking me from leaving the table without him moving. His two British friends sit across from us, and his friend with the dyed hair pulls up a chair and sits at the table.

"Scarlet, this is Ashley," Andy says pointing to the guy with dyed hair, "Danny," he point to the guy with the beard, "and Ben." pointing to his last friend. They all mutter "hey"s to me and I just nod my head.

My leg shakes under the table simply out of nervousness. Who are these men? And why are they with me? Will they do things to me? Stop over thinking! I stare off out of the window, I'm scared to make contact with any of them. Andy sees that my leg is shaking and keeps his hand on it, instantly it stopped, and I look at him.

"Sorry, it's just that you seem really out of your element right now, and I could see the anxiety it was putting on you, so I couldn't help myself but try to help you calm down." He says, still not removing his hand. I don't mind it, it's just kind of weird.

"Thanks." I say under my breath.

The waitress comes over and places my order on the table. "Cheeseburger, side of fries, and a strawberry milkshake." She says, putting it in front of me. "And for you gentlemen?"

"I'm gonna have what she's having, it looks pretty good." says Andy, looking at me.

"I'm looking for some dessert, and lady, you look sweet." says Ashley, winking at the waitress. She giggles a bit and so do I. The guy's got charm. I then stop myself when I notice they're all looking at me. I fucking hate attention.

"You have such an adorable little laugh." says Danny, I give him a smile and look back down at the table. "How old are you?" he asks.

"Seventeen." I say clearly so he can hear me. I don't really speak that loudly, I like to be distant, a wallflower.

"A damn travesty." Danny says, and the rest of the guys laugh a little, the waitress and I did too. He blushed a little, which was cute. The waitress takes the rest of the orders and we wait. I don't like eating in front of people, it's too awkward for me. For me to take a bite in front of someone is way too much for me to handle. I don't know, it's just too weird.

"Dig in Scarlet." Ben says. I shake my head no and look down at the table. Andy shakes my shoulder, making me look up.

"Come on, don't be afraid to eat in front of us, we won't judge you." he whispers and I nod my head. I start eating some fries, which puts a big smile on his face. He doesn't even know me, but he can see who I am like no one else can. It's new and I like it. The guys finally get their meals just as Nicole arrives.

"Scar, looks like you've gotten yourself some new friends." Nicole says smirking.

"You know what, you took so long that you can pay for my dinner." I tell her. She laughs.

"Don't sweat it, it's on me." Andy says with a soft smile. "You know, it's running late and Juliet expects me home soon, so I'll see you guys this weekend." Andy says throwing two fifties on the table, getting up and following us out the door. Then Nicole gets a call.

"Hello... really now?.. I have to... fine, see you in twenty... love you... bye." she says hanging up the phone. "Scarlet, Ricky needs me right now."

"What's the situation?" I ask.

"He needs help studying for his biology quiz." she says.

"mm hmm" I say.

"Please."

"You go, I'll hitch a ride."

"Thanks, you're the best."

"You've got the right." I say as she enters the car and pulls out of the parking lot. I glance over to my right to see Andy texting someone on his phone. He looks up for just a moment and catches my eyes on him.

"Well I just got kicked out of the house tonight." Andy says, he seems pissed.

"Really?" I ask softly.

"Yeah, Juliet can be a bitch sometimes, but I still love her. Do you wanna go on a walk with me?" I nod and we start walking down the street. Andy takes out a cigarette, lights it up and takes a long drag. The smoke hits me and I begin coughing some of it up. "Oh sorry." he says rubbing my shoulder, "Didn't mean for it to go right in your face."

"It's okay, I'm use to smoking, my parents do it all the time."

"So what courses are you taking this semester?"

"Chemistry, Math, English, and Music."

"So you're in my class?" I nod.

"That means you're Mr.Biersack" he nods.

"I have to warn you that most of my class is vocals."

"Now you're gonna wish I never chose your class."

"Don't say that, I bet you have a wonderful voice."

"You'd loose that bet then." he chuckles, which puts a big smile on my face.

"Hey, you're not nervous talking to me anymore."

"I have this thing where if I get to be with a person alone for awhile, then I start to bring down my wall and start to get to know them. Let's just say I have issues." he puts his arm around my shoulders and says.

"Everyone has issues, it's the strong people that are able to admit we have them." Wow, that's something man.

"Why become a teacher? I can tell by the look of you and hearing you speak that you'd be able to rock out on a stage. Why don't you?"

"I want to teach kids how to fall in love with music, just like I was taught. You'll see tomorrow just how different my teaching skills are. So do you want a drive home?" I nod and we walk back to his car.

Our journey begins, god this is gonna be a motherfucking long ass drive. This sucks. Andy turns on the radio and 'Paradise City' by Guns N Roses, fills the car. God I love this song. Soon the awkward silence ends as he pulls into Nicole's driveway.

"Did you have fun tonight?" he asks as he turns off the radio.

"Surprisingly, yes. I thought today would be good just because I left home, but this is way better." I say, fuck did that slip out?

"You left home? Where are we?"

"Yeah I left, that's another story for another day, and this is Nicole's house. Her parents love me a lot so they're letting me crash here until I get my own apartment."

"You're interested in buying an apartment? There's this apartment in my building for sale, it doesn't cost much. Maybe you should check it out sometime."

"Ye-" I say. I would finish the end of the word, but Andy's lips have now become glued to mine. His lips are as soft as they look, and boy, what a kiss. His lips detach from mine.

"Sorry, I couldn't resist any longer."

"It's okay, goodnight Mr.Biersack." I say getting out of the car.

"Scarlet, please." he says. I quickly squirm into the house, run upstairs to Nicole's room, and close the door, dropping to the floor in confusion. What the fuck just happened?
