Bullets in a Music Box

The soft sounds of The Dark Knight played in the background as I nuzzled my face into Andy’s shoulder. It was somewhere around midnight and I was really tired. Yesterday we did the last show of the tour, yay, but then today Falling For Fatality had meeting after meeting with Tyler and some of the sound techs for the studio. Tyler wants us to begin recording the EP as soon as possible, which I would normally be fine with, but I just want a few weeks off before getting into it. Andy wrapped his arm around my shoulders and kissed the top of my head.

“Are you tired?” He asked.

“Yes,” I said.

“Do you want to go upstairs then?” He shifted in his spot and I sighed before shaking my head.

“No, I love this movie and you are warm so I don’t want to move,” I explained and he chuckled.

“Are you happy the tour is over?” Andy asked and I nodded before shifting so I could wrap my arms around his waist.

“Yeah, now I can spend more time with you,” I said into his shoulder and he kissed the top of my head again.

“Exactly what I was thinking,” he said and I could hear him smiling. “So, tomorrow is your birthday.”

“Yes it is, why?” I lifted my head to look at him.

“I might be planning something for you,” he said.

“Andy, you better not be doing a huge as fuck party for me, cause I might have to kill you,” I said and he shook his head.

“Not a huge party, but a party with friends and family. And then something else that I am not telling you about,” he smirked and I gave him a look.

“Andy,” I whined and he smiled.

“I’m not telling you the other part. You get to be surprised from time to time,” he said and I groaned.

“How do I put up with you?” I asked and he shrugged.

“Who knows,” he said and then he focused on the TV. I rested my head on his shoulder and watched the movie with him. If he is planning a party, that’s fine, but what the hell is this other thing?


A loud thud coming from somewhere in the house woke me up the next morning. I rolled over in the bed and looked around the room. I was alone. A groan left my mouth before I climbed out of the bed and immediately wrapped my arms around my chest, it was cold as fuck in the house. As I made my way downstairs, I could smell something being cooked in the kitchen. When I got to the bottom of the stairs, I looked into the kitchen and saw Andy at the stove, shirtless and looking really attractive. I yawned and walked into the kitchen. When I got over near Andy, I wrapped my arms around his waist and rested my cheek on his back.

“You are supposed to be sleeping,” Andy said.

“I heard a loud thud, and I thought you died or something,” I told him and he chuckled, the muscles of his torso tightening,

“I dropped the pan on the floor, and then Crow almost tripped me, but I survived,” he said and I let go of him as he took whatever he was cooking off of the stove. I took a step back and then jumped up onto the island and sat down. Andy kept making what he was making before he turned around and looked at me.

“Since you aren’t in bed, which really puts a damper on this whole plan of mine, you get getting breakfast on the couch,” he said.

“I can go back upstairs Andy,” I laughed and he shook his head.

“Not the same effect. Get your ass on the couch,” he fake threatened me and I rolled my eyes before climbing off the island and walking into the living room. Then I sat down on the couch and pulled my legs up underneath me while I waited for Andy. When he came into the room, he had two plates and two cups of orange juice. He sat down next to me and handed me a plate that had three pieces of french toast, some scrambled eggs, and a few pieces of bacon.

“Oh my god, I think I’ve fallen in love with you all over again,” I smiled and he smirked.

“It is your 23 birthday, you deserve some good ass food prepared by your boyfriend,” he smiled before taking a bite of bacon.

“I do deserve this. So, what else do you have planned for me?” I asked.

“Well, you know about the party, but that isn’t until like seven tonight, but, I have an entire day of awesome planned. We are eating, so step one is done. Next we are going to go to a tattoo place and you are getting those damn tattoos you are constantly talking about, then we are gonna relax on the beach for a few hours while Zara, CC, Charlie, Ashley, Jake, Jinxx, and Callum decorate the house for the party,” he explained and I nodded.

“Okay, sounds like a plan. But, who said I want to get tattoos?” I asked.

“You. Every day since you got the owl,” he said. That’s right, I have.

“Oh, well, whatever. Am I required to wear a bikini or can I just wear jeans?” I asked.

“You can wear a bikini if you want, but I wasn’t really planning on swimming,” he said.

“So we are literally going to relax on the beach? Like lay out on the sand, talk, be weird and shit?” I asked, getting excited.

“We are going to just relax, we both deserve it, being the lead singer of a band can be really stressful,” he said.

“Can be? It is stressful,” I laughed as I took a bite of my french toast. He rolled his eyes and turned on the TV to Netflix.

“Oh my god, we should watch Once Upon a Time,” I said with a big smile on my face.

“Why?” Andy whined.

“Cause, it is amazing. And Jennifer Morrison is hot as fuck, and don’t even lie, you think so too,” I said and he chuckled.

“Fine, let’s watch Once Upon a Time,” he said and turned on the show. I did a little dance while squealing in my spot. When I finished my food, I put the plate on the table in front of me and crossed my arms loosely over my chest. Andy was taking forever to eat but I didn’t mind, he was getting into the show. Which I find hilarious because he’s always going on about how he doesn’t like it. I watched him as his face contorted into confusion at what was going on, on the screen.

“Why the hell do you like this show?” Andy asked me after a few minutes.

“Cause I love Disney and the fairy tales. And you seem to like it as well,” I pointed out and he looked at me.

“Never said I didn’t,” he said.

“Actually, you pick on me all the damn time about liking this show, so don’t even,” I said.

“Picking on you is fun,” he smiled and I glared at him.

“No it’s not. Cause if you pick on me, I might just have to snap back,” I said.

“You’ve never snapped back at me, so I think I’m safe,” he said.

“You just wait, it’ll happen,” I warned and shifted in my spot. “But, you finish this episode while I go and take a shower and get dressed, okay?”

“Go for it,” he waved me off and got comfortable on the couch. I scoffed and got off of the couch. As I walked upstairs, Crow appeared at the top of the stairs. I smiled at him and he meowed at me. When I got into the bedroom, Crow jumped up on the bed and rolled over, showing me his stomach.

“Where do you hide mister?” I asked and rubbed his stomach for a second. He looked at me and licked his paw.

“Whatever,” I muttered and walked into the bathroom to turn on the shower. Once the water was running and warm, I stripped out of my pajamas and climbed in. The feeling of the warm water running over me was amazing.

When I finished with my shower, I climbed out and walked over to the mirror. I turned my head left then right, something seems to be missing from my face. I’ve always wanted to get a nose ring, maybe I should do that today. From out in the bedroom, I heard Andy walk in, say something to Crow, and then I think he walked into the closet. I walked out of the bathroom and ruffled through my dresser drawers to find clothes. Once I did, I began to get dressed. When I was fully dressed, Andy hadn’t come out of the closet. What the hell is he doing? I walked over to the door and looked inside.

“What the hell are you doing?” I asked. He turned around and looked at me.

“Figuring out what to wear,” he sighed and I chuckled.

“You sound like a girl,” I laughed and he flipped me off.

“I’m sorry if I don’t know if I want to wear a cut up shirt or a normal shirt,” he said as he bit his lip.

“If you were asking me, I’d say a normal shirt,” I said as I leaned on the door frame. He looked at me before grabbing a shirt and walking up to me. When I didn’t move, he bent over and gave me a kiss and snuck past me.

“So are we going to the tattoo place first? Or beach? Cause I’m feeling the beach,” I laid down on the bed on my back and watched Andy as he put in his shirt.

“Well, you have an appointment at the tattoo place at two, so, tattoo place kinda has to be first,” he said.

“Fiiiine,” I sighed and looked up at the ceiling.

“Why do you keep whining?” Andy asked me as he laid down on the bed next to me.

“Cause it’s my birthday and I’m allowed to,” I said and he rolled his eyes.

“We should probably head out if we wanna make it to the appointment on time,” he sighed and I laughed.

“I don’t even know what tattoo I want,” I said.

“Sure you do, you’ve talked to Zara about it hundreds of times,” he said. I rolled over onto my stomach and looked at him. He was laying on his side, holding his head up with his hand.

“True, okay, fine. I know what I want to get. Do you think they do piercings too?” I asked.

“Piercings?” He asked.

“Yeah, I kinda sorta wanna get my nose pierced,” I smiled sheepishly and he laughed.

“Copycat,” he said.

“Not on that side, jeez. And I wanna get that double piercing thing, you know, two rings on one side,” I said.

“That sounds painful,” he sighed and I gave him a look.

“Says the man who gets tattoos every other day,” I said. He gave me a look and I smiled.

“They do piercings. What tattoo or tattoos are you gonna get?” He asked me as we both got off the bed and walked downstairs.

“I’m thinking, a Peter Pan themed one that says ‘Fly With Me,’ and maybe a Batman tattoo on my wrist,” I smiled and heard him chuckle. We walked outside and got into the car before he answered.

“Total copycat,” he chuckled and I shrugged.

“You’re not the only one who likes Batman in this relationship,” I looked at him and he smiled.

“I know, you have a Batman phone case, Batman necklaces, and Batman clothes, you may be more obsessed than I am,” he laughed and I shrugged.

“Batman is the shit, what can I say?” I asked and he rolled his eyes. We were quiet for the rest of the drive and when we got to the tattoo place, I got this big smile.

“Do you think they have a drawing of what I want?” I asked.

“Possibly,” he said and we climbed out of the car and walked inside. There was one person getting a tattoo, another person waiting to get a tattoo, and someone behind the counter. The guys smiled at us and welcomed us.

“Welcome to Oceanview Tattoo, I’m Trent, do you have an appointment or are you a walk-in?” The guy asked and Andy answered.

“We have an appointment under Sadee Christian,” he said and Trent looked in the computer by him and nodded.

“Alright, here for a two o’clock appointment. Sam over there will be able to help you once he’s finished. Do you have something in mind?” Trent asked and I nodded.

“What Peter Pan designs do you have?” I asked. Trent nodded and walked over to an area and grabbed a big book before returning to us and flipping through to a set of pages.

“These ones,” he said. I looked through them and found one that closely resembled what I wanted.

“This one,” I pointed and Trent nodded, again, and took the paper from the slot.

“Is that it?” He asked.

“Also Batman, the logo,” I said. He turned the pages again and stopped at another set of them.

“This one,” I said and he grabbed the paper and looked up at me.

“Is that it?” He asked.

“You guys do piercings, right?” I asked.

“We do, are you interested in a piercing?” He asked and I nodded.

“Have you heard of getting two nose rings on one nostril?” I asked.

“I’ve seen it, and it’s pretty kickass, do you want that?” He asked.

“Is it possible?” I asked.

“Um, I don’t think we can do that specific one, but we can do the single ring,” he said.

“Whatever, I just want a piercing for some reason,” I said.

“Piercings are kickass. Looks like Sam is done, I will give him these two papers and he will get to making the drawing. I’ll do the piercing once I finish with this guy here,” he said and I nodded. I walked over to the chairs and sat down next to Andy, who had his foot up on his knee and was on his phone.

“Sorry that took so long,” I said.

“It’s fine, so no double ring nose thing?” He asked.

“Nope. But I could always get the second one somewhere down the line,” I shrugged and he smiled. He leaned over and gave me a kiss, which surprised me cause we don’t normally do PDA.

“What was that for?” I asked.

“You’re my girlfriend, it’s your birthday, why not?” He asked and I rolled my eyes before resting my head on his shoulder. It’s nice to spend the day with Andy, especially when it’s my birthday. I watched the room as the previous guy paid and left. Trent walked over to the other side of the room and got the piercing gun thing ready. Then he called me over. I got off my spot and pulled Andy with me. When I sat down, Trent got right into doing the piercing, which by the way, hurt a little bit, but then it was fine.

“Alright, fast and easy. Here is a pamphlet on how to clean it and the products we recommend to use. Now, Sam over there is ready for you,” he said with a smile and I smiled back before getting off the stool and walking over to this Sam guy.

“Hi,” I waved and he smiled.

“Hi, first off, you two are awesome, big fan. Secondly, getting two tattoos today?” He asked.

“Two tattoos, yes, and thanks,” I smiled and sat down on the bed thing.

“Where do you want them?” Sam asked and I smiled, again.

“The Peter Pan one I want on my left shoulder blade. The Batman one I want on my right wrist,” I said and he nodded.

“Alright, let’s get to it. Peter Pan is first,” he said and I nodded before taking off my sweater and moving my straps off my shoulder. Then I rested on the bed, on my stomach and Sam got to doing the tattoo. Andy was sitting in a chair next to Sam and was smiling as I got the tattoo.

“What made you want to get a Peter Pan tattoo?” Sam asked.

“I’m a big Disney fan, and Peter Pan has always intrigued me,” I said and he nodded. We were mainly quiet for the rest of the time. Andy and I kept making faces at each other, and he was taking pictures of me, presumably because I was making faces. At some points of the tattoo, it hurt like a bitch. When Sam began the Batman tattoo, I almost started crying because it hurt. When he finished the tattoo, I was happy with it. I told Andy that I would pay for the piercing, but he refused and paid for the whole thing, which made me feel like a greedy bitch. But Andy said he was fine with it. After the tattoo place, we immediately drove off to the beach. Today is turning out to be the best birthday ever. Tonights party better be kickass.

Notes

Hello again!! So there wasn't as long of a wait for this chapter. And, in case you were wondering, when I write the chapters, I literally write like at least three drafts before getting the final one. I'll write something out, and then I won't be feeling it, so I'll delete it and start over. I usually do this like three times, no joke. Then I figure out how to write the chapter and stuff like this comes out!!

So I was told I should focus more on Sadee and Andy, and the relationships, than the band stuff, and I agree. So you guys get almost an entire chapter of just Sadee and Andy. The next one will be them as well, but also have everyone else in it. Cause her party is in the next chapter!

Question Time: I have no specific questions, just the general one. What should Andy and Sadee do in their free time, as in dates and stuff?

Sadee's Outfit:

Smiles! (as always)
