They Can't Stop Us From Our Freedom

Before we left Lindley's, I asked Andy to call up the guys and to tell them what happened while Lindley and I went back to her room to see if everything was cleaned out. Andy said he would come up when he was done.

"So how's Andy going?" she asked nudging me.

"Nothing is going on, and if I liked him I woulda told you first thing, you know that."

"Suuuuure, I know he likes you. I mean, why else would he grab your hand, by the war I saw that, or ask us if we wanted to move in. Plus, the way he looks at you seals the deal."

"Fine I'll give you that, but what about you moving in? There's got to be a reason for that."

"Well, I've been talking to CC-"

"WAIT YOU'RE TELLING ME THIS NOW?!"

"Chill out nothing's happened yet, we have just become really really good friends and I kinda sorta like him. Not just because he is my favorite in the band, but because of his personality and stuff."

"Yeah I get what you're saying-" I didn't get to finish my sentence because Andy walked in.

"You guys ready?" he asked.

"Yup, LETS GOOOOO," Lindley replied running ahead of us.

"So whatcha guys talking about that I can't hear?"

"Nothinggggg. God, Biersack, why you so nosy?"

"I'm not nosy, I'm curious." he replied in a matter-of-factly voice.

"Well you know what they say, curiosity killed the cat."

"What happened to not using cliche, overused statements?" he said with another smirk. I think he ikes to be a smartass.

"Yeah whatever," I said shoving him out the door.

We got to their house and all they guys came rushing out in excitement and Sammi trailing behind them. CC immediately went to Lindley and the rest we're just kinda confused.

"So you guys ready to move in?" Sammi asked as soon as we were inside.

"Of course we are!" I said.

"Well we should probably start on that. I'm gonna get rid of the boys for a little while so I can actually talk to you guys without Andy crowding you and CC crowding you." she said pointing towards both of us.

"Okay," we both said laughing.

She sent them off to wherever and told us they would be gone for until at least 1 AM.

"Well are we going to start or what?" she asked.

"I'm tireddddd," Lindley complained.

"Yeah, yeah get up." I said.

"So who's room is who's?" Lindley asked.

"Well CC has requested that you room with him," I saw Lindley turn bright red, "so you up for all that energy?" Sammi finished.

"Yes," Lindley said shyly.

"Okay good, he already has a big enough bed for both of you so you'll be alright. And Windy, Andy has requested to room with you." Sammi said. i was shocked.

"I'm not really sure about that..." I said cautiously.

"What the hell Windy? I was totally right," Lindley said back.

"Just, after everything that has happened I--I'm not really sure I want to room with anyone just yet," I said as I began to choke up. I couldn't pinpoint it but I knew I didn't want anyone that close to me. I'm definitely not ready for a serious relationship. Although I did like Andy, it's only a tiny crush and I've never been able to hold long relationships. Earlier today was nice, but it' another a good idea; I know it's not.

"Alright that's fine we'll just move you into the master bedroom like we were going to anyways and if you change your mind we can just move Andy in there as well." It was a compromise I could handle. Why would Andy like me anyways? I'm not even that pretty, well I am, just compared to Lindley I'm not.

We got done unpacking and moving in.

"So you nervous to share a house with these boys? They can be wild," Sammi said with a wink.

"Oh my God Sammi I'll be just fine, it doesn't really matter since my virginity is gone," I said kinda quietly.

"Are you sure you don't want to turn him in to the cops?" Well that went downhill quickly.

"I don't know, I'm just afraid that they won't believe me and if they do, that he'll come after me."

"I think you should Andy won't shuttup about you, he's definitely there to protect you. I think he'll be happy about your decision. He was pissed off when he was on the phone earlier. And I can't believe that you're comfortable talking about this not even 24 hours after it happened."

"Yeah, my parents always taught me to just suck it up and cry into your pillow at night when no one can hear you. But I don't know if I want Andy. He's a great guy and all but I'll feel like I just like him because he's in my favorite band and that's what all his fans want, plus I don't know if I can take the hate I'm gonna get."

"Woah wait, you're parents taught you that?! Well no wonder your brother turned into that. And trust me the hate is just jealous fans, you guys deserve each other." Maybe I was wrong to make the decision to not move into the same bedroom as him. I'll see what the first couple days are like and make my decision then. Last time I made an impulsive decision, I lost literally everything.

We finished like six hours later.

"Okay that didn't take long at all," Sammi said.

"THAT DIDN'T TAKE LONG AT ALL?! IT TOOK LIKE 5 HOURS!" Lindley yelled.

"It actually took 6," I added.

"Well I thought it was going to be like the entire night, well more time for talking!"

"Are you serious?! I just wanna sleep!" Lindley said.

"Yeah, yeah it seems like you're always tired," Sammi said.

"She is because she never sleeps," I added laughing.

We sat in silence for a little while.

"Guys what do I do about Andy?"

"Umm like him back?" Lindley replied.

"But why would he want me, I mean my brother only wanted me so he could rape me, what if Andy wants to do the same?"

"Trust me Andy isn't like that, although he does like sex, he's going to respect the space you want." Sammi said.

“I’m definitely not ready for that,” I started crying, “I wasn’t e-even read-y in the fir-first place,” I managed to choke out in between sobs.

“Aww Windy, it’s gonna be alright, you seemed so tough today I know you can get through this.” Lindley said as she came over to hug me.

“I just don’t want An-Andy to know how hur-hurt I am. I’ve only known him a few days and I don’t want to be a burden like I was to my parents and Sydnee.” I broke down.

“Seriously Windy Andy isn’t like that, he’s so determined and doesn’t give up on anything, even things he should give up on,” Sammi said reassuringly.

“Okay but I still don’t want him knowing about this,” I said slightly recovered.

*Andy's POV*

"You guys should go have fun for a night," Sammi said to us, "I need to talk to the girls for a little while."

"But I wanna stay with Windy for the first night," I said back.

"You will but for now we need you out out out," Sammi said.

"I'm up for a night of clubbing," Ashley said.

"NOT HELPING!"

"Come on bro we'll see em later, promise you'll keep them awake?" CC asked.

"No we have to make sure Windy goes to school tomorrow, she needs to get through this." Sammi said back.

"What are you her mother?" Jake asked laughing.

"Well, at least I know she'll be a good one when it comes time," Jinxx said. Sammi slapped him.

"It's true though" he said laughing.

"Fine, but its only like 6 so what are we going to do until then?" I asked.

"Jinxx will take you to get ready at our new place."

We left. I really wanted to stay with her but I guess not.

When we got to the club, I wasn't really feeling the party.

"Come on Andy, let's go pick up some chicks." Ashley yelled over the music.

"I can't I have a roommate remember?"

"Just do it in your car then."

"Ugh fine I'm coming."

After three drinks and five minutes of searching I found one, but it just didn't feel right even with all the alcohol. I decided to go back home. I just walked because I was so drunk. I've never been like this I don't even know what's going on. I always hook up with girls when I go to clubs but I just can't do it tonight. I lit a cigarette and kept walking. I walked in the door around midnight and all the girls were sitting there.

*Windy's POV*
"Hey Andy why are you back so soon?" Sammi asked.

"Ehh I wasn't in the mood for clubbing, I guess I'm just tired. And shouldn't you guys be asleep right now, don't you have school in the morning?"

"Yeah, we better go to bed, I don't even wanna go tomorrow but we only have like four more days." I said.

"Yeah, four more days of hell. You're gonna die when you hear the rumors going around about us." Lindley added.

"As if I haven't been through enough already," a tear slipped down my cheek and the others followed.

Andy turned me towards him and wiped them away. "Hey it's okay, you're going to survive I promise," he hugged me.

"Hey Andy can I talk to you for a sec," Sammi said so that I wasn't the one to have to break the news that we weren't rooming together after all.

Sammi was right, he really does want to look out for me. But I still don't know. Who would want me, I'm a mess...

*Andys POV*

"Yeah Sam what's up?"

"Windy asked me if she could just room alone, she's really hurting right now and everything's really confusing for her," Not exactly the news I wanted, "she likes you but she has her walls up. I'm sure she'll change her mind in a couple days or after school ends and everything simmers down. I just wanted to let you know what was going on ya know? And I wasn’t supposed to tell you this and DO NOT bring up her brother to her,"

"Yeah okay thanks Sam I won’t mention anything."
