"Ash oh my god, put me down!" Andy exclaimed as his best friend threw him onto the floor.

They were a laughing mess, bottles of alcohol everywhere, and he honestly couldn't have been happier.

Well, he could have been..

Jake and Jinxx were out on dates leaving CC, Andy, and Ashley to get drunk at home. And drunk they were.

He wanted to be with Sylvie. He wanted to be on a date with her and it killed him to know that they couldn't. Just friends was proving to be the hardest task Andy had ever had to go through.

"Pour me a shot, dude!" Andy grinned, flopping down onto the couch.

"You got it, lover boy!" Ashley winked, a bottle of Jack Daniel's in his hand.

"Me too!" CC exclaimed. He came back moments later and handed them both the glasses. "A toast, to Set The World On Fire!"

"It's not out until next week, C." Andy laughed.

"Who cares? A toast!" He yelled. They all clinked their glasses together and tossed back the sour shots.

"Mm.." Andy mumbled, looking up at the ceiling. "Guys, what do you think of Sylvie?"

"I think she's sexy." Andy kicked him on the thigh and flicked him off. "God, sorry!"

"What do you think of us?" He raised his brow.

"I think she's leading you around like a little puppy." CC laughed. "But it's cute."

Andy rolled his eyes. "Do you think we'd be good together?"

"Yeah dude." Ashley rolled his eyes. "I mean, why wouldn't you be?"

"She doesn't want to be my girlfriend yet." He frowned, looking at the ceiling.

"Maybe because she just wants to make sure it's right." CC slurred.

"I just really like her." Andy groaned, rubbing his eyes. "And I always want to kiss her, or hold her, or hug her."

"You sound like a girl, Biersack." Ashley laughed. He kicked him once more and stood up. "If you want her so bad, insist on it."

"What do you mean?"

"Say, I really like you, Sylvie, and I want to be your man.." CC said in his best Andy impression.

"Dude that's stupid." Andy fell on his side and closed his eyes. "But I miss her."

"You saw her a few days ago!" Ashley laughed.

"So?" Andy chuckled. "It's been too long already."

"You know what you have to do?" Andy shook his head, laughing as Ashley rubbed his hands together. "Do things around her that give off that air of flirt. Like touch her ass, or her hair all the time. Be the douche, sometimes girls like that.."

"Really?" Andy asked, the poor guy knowing he never had any game. He just jumped into relationships feet first.

"Yes."

"And it will work?"

"It's worth a try."

Sylvie coughed as she inhaled a bit of Poppy's joint. She laughed as the young girl just shook her head. "No, that's not for me."

"It's not for everyone. Just stick to liquor." Poppy handed her the shiny glass of alcohol and Sylvie took a large gulp to get the pot taste out of her mouth.

Somehow, Poppy had gotten a fake ID good enough to trick the dude at 7/11. Or it could have been her tits..

"So what's up with that Andy dude huh? Why hasn't he moved in on you yet?"

"I don't know, Pop. I've been trying to push the idea of a relationship away for now but if he asked now, I'd be all for it. Maybe.."

"Maybe?" Poppy raised her eyebrow.

"What if I'm not ready for that? I mean there has to be a reason I keep telling myself it's too soon.."

"You're fine, girl. You guys are perfect for each other. Everyone knows it.." Poppy said, taking another long drag of her joint.

"But what if everyone is wrong?" Sylvie frowned. "What if all of his fans are right and we'll just break up in a year?"

"Then you had an amazing year together before parting ways but I think everyone knows that's not going to happen.." Poppy shrugged. "Just talk to him about it."

"I would but I'm scared.." Sylvie groaned, tipping back the last of her drink.

"Then wait for him to talk to you." Poppy giggled. God- she had been in LA a week and she was already being dragged into her best friends problems.

She hadn't even known Andy that long and she knew the boy was in love with Sylvie. It was so blatantly obvious that it made her laugh to think about how the best friends just pretended like they hadn't gone on a date, or that they don't cuddle and make out. The pair was in denial and soon enough it would eat them alive.

They would get together. Everyone knew it.
