Before The Angels Fell

Andys POV

It was getting close to Halloween and I wanted to take Riley shopping with me to organise our costumes.
I was getting ready to pick her up when I heard a car horn coming from my drive way.
I quickly rushed downstairs and prayed it wasn't Ashley pretending we had plan again.
I flung the door open to see a white, 2001, Mercedes convertible sitting in my driveway.
"Hey handsome" Riley called as she got out of the drivers seat. "Like my new car?"
"What...? When...?" I stuttered.
"I picked it up today. Uhh, it's so beautiful. I always dreamed of having a nice car like this" she said leaning against the passenger door.
"Why didn't you tell me?" I said still stunned.
Riley just shrugged. "Didn't think it was necessary."
"Riley, this must have cost you a fortune. You know I would have helped" I said going over to her and resting my hands on her arms.
"Andy, I'm not a charity you sponsor. I don't need help. I think you forget that I own a successful bar in Hollywood. I make plenty of money. I can afford this" she assured me.
I looked into her emerald green eyes and she was being serious.
Sometimes I forgot that Riley was actually a strong and confident person. Despite all her anxiety and insecurities that she hides. She was always resilient and bounced back.
"You're right. You've got this" I said giving her a quick kiss.
She smiled up at me and sighed. "So what are we doing today? You just said be ready by 11."
"Well, I was going to tell you later, but I'm too excited. Jinxx does an annual Halloween party and it is always epic. So I thinking we could organise our costume today" I said scooping her into my arms lifting her off the ground.
"Hmmm, costume? You know what were going as?" She said playfully.
"Yes, it's what I go as every year."
"Batman and Catwoman?"
"Okay, no, every other year" I laughed.
"And what's that?"
"You'll have to see" I said carrying her to the drivers side of the car and opening the door for her.
"Fine" she said hopping into her car.

"Andy, we have been in this Hot Topic for an hour! If you can't decide I'll buy both of them" Riley whined as I debated over a new t-shirt I could cut up.
"Shh! Not too loud. Do you want a swarm of teenage girls to chase us out?"
"Fine, but hurry up!"
"But I can't decide!"
"Okay, they are both Black Veil Brides tops. I'm going to buy them both, you can cut both up and I will wear one. Are these part of our costume?"
"... Yeah."
"Okay, come on. Give me the other stuff" she said holding her hand out for the make up and jewelry we had picked out.
"You're not paying for all of this" I said, not giving her the other stuff. "Just the tops, if you have to" I said rolling my eyes.
"Fine" she agreed. "I still can't figure out what the hell we going to be..."
"You'll see" I laughed as we walked up to the register.

After we shopped a little more we headed back to my house and laid out all the stuff.
"Figured it out yet?" I joked.
"Hmmm, nope" she said looking at all the stuff on my bed.
"Have you got a pair of old black jeans?" I asked.
"... Yeah, I think so... Why?"
"I'll rip those up too."
"But!"
"It's part of the costume."
"You are a sneaky little devil" she said grabbing my waist and looking up at me.
She paused for a moment and she seemed to melt. "You know how much I care about you Andy. How amazing you are. I always have so much fun with you. You make me better..." She said then smiled sweetly.
"I don't think you understand how you have made me better" I said pulling her into a hug.
"Andy, you've already seen how fucked up I am. I never thought I would ever be normal" she mumbled into my chest.
"Hey, it's okay. It's been a few months and you are better than ever. I wouldn't worry. I'm just the luckiest man in the world" I said pushing her away, only to grab her chin and kiss her.
Her arms tighten around my waist and pushed me against her body.
Our kisses deepened and I felt her tug me towards the bed.
Did she want to take this further?
I followed her lead and backed her on the bed. She collapsed softly onto her back and laid on top of her. Her leg hooked around my hip, trying to bring me closer. My hand ran over her body from her neck to her hips. I played with the skin between her jeans and pullover, before I slowly creeped up.
Her skin was so smooth and soft, all I wanted to do was undress her and touch her.
I felt her fingers unravel from my hair and graze across my neck and mimicked my hands. She was soon on the skin of my stomach and dragging my top up.
I happily helped her take it off and hers soon followed after.
She was so beautiful.
I started to kiss down her neck, nibbling at her skin. I felt twitch with with every touch, wanting more.
I moved down her chest, leaving a trails of kisses over her breasts. I tugged her bra down a touch so I could get to the nipple. Her body shivered as my teeth grazed over her.
"Andy..." She whispered.
"Yes Jamie?" I said against her skin.
I could physically feel her roll her eyes.
"I really should get going. I have work tonight" she huffed out.
"No!" I whined, wrapping my arms around her waist so she couldn't go anywhere.
"Andy, I really have to go!" She said squirming.
"Why now?"
"Andy, you know my place on this issue. And you said it yourself, you don't want me to get in too deep if I'm not ready."
"No, you don't want me to get in too deep" I said without thinking.
"Really? That's really unfair Andy" she said, clearly pissed. She shook me off her body, grabbing her top and exiting my room.
"What?" I said following her.
"You know exactly what! Can you just not make those sex jokes? It's not that I don't want, trust me, I do, but at the right time. Can't you just accept that?" She said from the bottom of the stairs.
"I can, and I do. I'm sorry... I'm just a little sexually frustrated, that's all. You know I want to wait for you."
She closed her eyes and huffed a sigh. "Thank you. But soon though" she smiled.
I smiled back, unsure if she was being serious.
"Okay, I really have to go though. I'll see you on Halloween. Will you tell me then what we're going as?"
"Well I'll be dressing you. You'll fine out then" I winked.
Riley just shook her head as she walked out my front door.
