~Stars Can't Shine Without Darkness~

Andy's P.O.V.~

I go down the stairs and grab a beer from the fridge before sitting beside Ashley on the couch. He raise his eyebrow at the drink in my hand but ignored it. I chugged half of it and made a sour face at the taste. Star came down the stairs with black shorts and the shirt Ronnie gave her on. Jealously ached in my mind but I swallowed it, along with the beverage. I couldn't help but stare at the way her hair moves with her body and her curves are perfectly in line with her body size. She caught me staring at her but avoided eye contact. I rolled my eyes and sighed.

"Anyone see my keys?" She shouted, turning towards Ashley and I. Ashley reached over and grabbed them, tossing them to her. She thanked him before blowing him a kiss which he gratefully took. I took a deep breathe and felt my face begin to beat with jealously. I didn't like this feeling, but there's nothing I could've done.

Violet and Star pranced out the door and drove off to school. Not a single acknowledgement of my existence. It he stinging in my heart was back and even stronger as the day grew. I sat there patiently watching Orange is the New Black with the guys whileNoah came down the stairs. I glared at him and stared deeply at the television. He sat in the single chair and played on his phone.

Hours went by and so far I hadn't even gotten a shower. Star, Violet, and another girl with brunette came into the house and ran straight up the stairs. I didn't know what I was feeling, I felt...numb? I wasn't angry, I wasn't happy, but It felt like I was to upset to function. I was cut off by Ashley waving a hand In my face. "Get up. You're going to get a shower, and we're going out. Kay? Kay. Now go." He pulled me up and shoved me towards the stairs, causing me to stumble over my footing. I groaned and pulled my shirt over my head, then my pants, and finally my boxers.

The hot water beating off of my back was relaxing as I scrubbed shampoo into my hair. I stood there for a moment, even when I should've been getting out, and thought about Star. How upset she was. But the night before, damn that was amazing. But it's gone now, like it never happened. 'But it did' she willingly gave me all of her, and I threw it in her face the next day, not even realizing she could've been taken. I slammed my fist against the tiled wall and turned off the shower. I didn't bother getting a towel, so I pulled up some black jeans, white tshirt, and my signature leather jacket. I combed my hair and lined my eyes with a small amount of black eye line under my eyes.

"Ready?" Ashley asked. I shrugged and stepped into his car. Minutes later, we pulled into the parking lot of a club. Colored Lights showed through the tinted windows and you could hear the music for outside. "Ashley, I don't know about this. Star's going to be pissed." I tried to hack out, but he continued to walk. "She already is my friend." Good point...

We passed the guard with no questions asked, showing that he knew Ashley well. We walked towards the bar tender and Ashley ordered us each a round of shots. "ID please" the bartender asked. "I...uhm...-" "he's with me John. He's fine" the bartender, John, shrugged and poured us the drinks.

A couple shots later and my vision was already dizzy. Several girls in skimpy outfits were surrounding Ash, feeling his arms and abs. A girl with dark brown hair and blonde tips came over to me, she was wearing a shredded crop top with ripped booty shorts and alcohol rested from her breathe. "Hey, what's your name sexy?" She breathed in my ear. I suddenly felt uncomfortable with this whole situation but Ashley winked at me and strode off with three girls attached to his arms. "Hello?" The girl asked again, kissing my neck gently. "Andy" I answered quickly, shooting a couple more shots down my throat. "How about we move this into another...environment. Yeah?" She hooked her black nails around my collar and pulled me into the guys bathroom, locking the door behind us.

She kissed my neck and pulled my hands down to her ass. I squeezed her ass, making her smirk against
my skin. She moved up to my lips and we quickly made this into a make out session. I bit her neck as her scraped her sharp nails down my back. Her petite hands unbuckled my belt and tried to unzip my jeans but I caught her wrists. "Wait...stop. I can't.." I stepped away from her as confusion showed her face.

"What do you mean you can't?! You were fine with it five seconds ago!" She huffed. "I know...it's just...I'm taken alright? I have a beautiful girlfriend and I can't do this to her." I ran out of the bathroom searching frantically for Ashley. I spot him making out with a red head on the red leather couch. I walk over there and get him to his feet, knocking the girl to the other side of the couch. "Ow you dick!" She yelled. "Ash I need to leave...I just...I just cheated on her...oh god she's gonna hate me!" I angrily tugged at my hair. "Calm down man, we'll get a room and sleep there tonight, alright?"

"Come on" Ashley pulled me away from the stool and dragged me across the street. We paid for a room that smelled like spoiled eggs. I fell on the bed and instantly passed out while Ashley called up Jake telling him we'll be back tomorrow. I had to talk to Star tomorrow...but if I tell her....she'll hate me even more. What she doesn't know won't kill her, right? Right.
