Before The Angels Fell

Andys POV

I waited nervously side stage. This was the first time I was ever performing to a crowd this controversial. The first time we, Black Veil Brides, were performing at a Warped Tour. I had only dreamed of this moment my entire life. What I had been working towards.
I looked around at my band, who were all trying to warm up for the show, but couldn't help glancing at the crowd every few seconds.
I peered down at Riley who was casually on her phone. Seemed out of character for her.
"Since when are you so calm?" My voice sounding annoyed.
Riley shrugged as she continued to scroll through her phone.
"What's with you? I've never seen you so... relaxed" I said squatting down to her level to look at her face.
"I don't know. I think I realised that no matter what, you're mine and no one can take that away from me" she said grabbing my chin and pecking me on the lips.
I was a little taken aback. She was complaining about meeting fans today and how they would hate her, and now she didn't care? What?
"Who are you and what have you done with Riley?" I said sarcastically as I laughed.
"It just feels like a weight has been lifted. I no longer care what other people think" she shrugged.
I smiled and shook my head. "I can't wait to move in with you."

Rileys POV

I watched as the bus drove away, followed by all the other tour buses.
The grounds were starting to empty out and the deconstruction began. I wondered around, killing time before I would have to go back to Andy's empty house.
There were still fans hanging around, watching the buses leave and scouting for any lost merch or money.
I slowly made my way to the cab line up, when I heard screaming... or fangirling, I should say.
"OHH, MYY GOD! YOU'RE RILEY! ANDY'S GIRLFRIEND!" A girl screamed as she ran up to me.
"Uhh... Hi, yes, I'm Riley" I said awkwardly.
"Oh my God, you're so pretty! I saw you when you were with Andy behind the fence. You guys are so sweet!" She swooned.
"Uhh, yeah, I'd hope so... Uhh, what was your name?" I asked extending my hand to shake hers.
"Oh, sorry, my name is Isabel. My friend is not going to believe I met you!" She said, barely shaking my hand. "Oh, wait, there she is" she said pointing behind me. "CLAIR!" She yelled.
My stomach dropped. Please don't let it be the same girl I gave the finger to...
To my dismay, it was.
"Clair! Look! It's Riley!" She said jumping with excitement.
"Oh, I already met her" she said as she approached.
"Oh..."
"Yeah, she's a bitch" she said giving me a dirty look.
Isabel looked horrified. "Really? She's right here..."
"It's okay Isabel. I expected to get people like Clair hating on me today. And you know what? I' cool with it, cause it only tells me you're jealous cause I got what you will never have. And that's Andy" I said smiling proudly.
"Whatever, you're still a bitch. Come on Is, let's go home. I'm done with this trash" Clair said, grabbing Isabel by the arm and dragging her away.
I stood there for a while. I didn't know whether I should be angry or sink deep within myself and cry...
I wasn't a bitch... No, I was... truthful. She was being a bitch. Good thing I believe in karma, cause it will get her.

I got home to Andy's house and it was strange. Andy's house felt so hollow sometimes.
There was the scent of cigarettes and cologne that lingered throughout the rooms, it only made me miss him more.
I made my way upstairs to undress and shower. All the make up Andy had put on me had smeared by the end of his concert and looked horrible.
Once clean and in pjs I took a cigarette out of Andy's top draw and lit it in bed. Andy would freak out if he saw me do it, but why have an ashtray inside if you never used it?
I figured I have a smoke cause I was about to check social media to see if they had posted anything yet.
And sure enough, I flicked onto Facebook and Ashley's page came up right away. It was a picture of Andy, Ashley and CC, all with a bottle of Seagram's whiskey to their mouths.
"Oh God..." I said to myself.
This was only the first night and they were going crazy. This would all be Ashley.
I hope Andy would be responsible...
