An Angels Last Fall

Ashley was coming over twice in a day ever since the day at the café. He was a good friend and I would open up to him accidentally at times. He just listened. But he always whispered to Juliet when I had said my hellos. I figured that they just wanted to catch up or something. I never bothered. Today was different though. He drug us out of the house in a rush rejecting everything I wore. He finally went into my closet and made an outfit for me. http://www.polyvore.com/new_york_maybe/set?id=138030012 . He refused to tell me where he was taking us. Juliet had a smirk on her face the whole time.

“Where are we going?” I whispered when we had gotten inside of his car.

Juliet was in the passenger seat with a small jacket over her practically bare chest. Her outfit was a bit bizarre for me but Ashley didn’t complain. http://www.polyvore.com/stuck_up/set?id=137862487 No one really complained when it came to what Juliet wanted. And I learned that after a while. “You’ll see.” She turned around to me smiling.

I leaned back in the seat and stared out the window playing with the ends of my hair that Juliet had thrown back at the last minute. The music playing on the radio was soothing me. It was unlike anything I heard but something about it made me feel like I was home.

“New album?” Juliet asked.

“Yeah, World of Sacrifice. Don’t tell anyone I showed it to you.” Ashley laughed.

“Who is singing?” I asked leaning toward the front of the car.

“Andy, you’ve never heard us?” Ashley said looking back at me quick then back to the road.

I shook my head. “No,”

I leaned back into the seat. God really did give some people beautiful voices. Something about Andy’s reminded me of someone. I smiled and closed my eyes as the song went on. When I opened my eyes I was startled by Juliet staring at me with a huge smile on her face. I jumped slightly and she just went back to her normal position. I played with the jacket over my shirt. Ashley pulled into a parking lot and parked. When he got out I figured I should to the same. I looked around to see that there were several other cars around us with people in tattoos and black walking inside.

“It’s a party to celebrate the completion of our album.” Ashley said.

My face went cold and hot at the same time. “Will Andy be here?” I asked remembering that he was a part of this album.

“Yup!” Ashley smiled pulling on my hand leading me inside.

“I can’t.” I said pulling my arm back to my side.

“Why?” Both of them asked at the same time.

“I just can’t.” I held my hands close to my chest and stayed close to the car.

“There’s a small chance he’s even going to notice you. Do you see how many people are here? He has other friends you know.” Juliet snickered.

I slowly dropped my arms and walked toward Ashley. He then took my hand softly and walked me to the front. I took a gulp and reminded myself that I was strong. And Juliet was right. There was a 15% chance he would even talk to me. But what if I had the urge to talk to him? What if I can’t control what this human form wants? I took a deep breath and stepped inside with them.
