The Saved Become The Saviors

Jenn’s POV

***On the tour bus heading to the first venue***
We have finally started to drive to the first venue in Dallas, Texas. Which finally gives me sort of alone time if you know what I mean considering i’m on a tour bus. I crawled into my bunk and closed the curtain, turning over so that I was facing the wall. I put my headphones in and started to blare the first song to come on, which is none other than Roger Rabbit by SWS. I closed my eyes and began to silently sing along. But like always my music never seems to get loud enough, because I can hear my bunk’s curtain slowly open. I paused my music and pretended to be sleeping.

“Why, why can you just let me in, just let me help you. You don’t have to be strong on your own, i’m here for you and always will be. Please baby girl just let me in” Ronnie rested his head on my shoulder, I can feel my shirt getting wetter every second. I squeezed my eyes shut even tighter than before, and I too began to cry. I just sat there in silence, crying to myself.

“I wish I can take away all your pain. I would take it all for myself if it meant you could be truly happy” He kept his head on my shoulder for a while longer before standing up and leaving.

“Not even the worst of people deserve this kind of pain Ronnie. And if I have any say in it, you will never know what it’s like” I whispered to myself before finally falling asleep.

I woke up what seemed like a very short time later, due to the damn bus shaking every which way. I don’t see how Ronnie and them do this for a living. I slowly rolled out of my bunk only forgetting I was off the ground by a couple feet, only to crash down to the floor

“Fuck” I quickly got up and left before I did something else and wake everyone up. I made my way to the front of the bus, straight to the fridge. I grabbed a bottle of water and a apple. I thought about what to do to pass the time seeing as how there was no way in hell I was going back to sleep on that damn bus, so I went up to where the driver was and pulled up a stool to sit next to him.

“You must be Jennifer, I presume” He gave me a gentle smile that made it so that the only thing you could do was smile back

“The one and only, it’s nice to meet you”

“It’s nice to meet you as well, i’m Sal by the way” He was an older man. His hair was mostly gray, and he had a beard, glasses, gray blue eyes, and one of the warmest smiles i’ve ever seen. He sort of looked like a fun and cool grandfather.

“Well Sal it seems as though you're stuck with me for a while. That is if you don’t mind of course”

“How could anyone turn down your wonderful company darling” He said with an even bigger smile. I sat there talking to him all night until the sun came out and we arrived at the first venue. He even let me drive for a short while. We arrived at the venue around 4 in the morning. Sal stood up out of his chair and gave me a kiss on the forehead before heading to bed.

I cleaned up the little corner I had claimed to be mine while talking to Sal and when I was done I found Alex sitting on the couch waiting for me to finish. “What was that about?” She asked raising an eyebrow

“Oh that was nothing, I couldn’t sleep so I figured I would keep him company. It must be lonely driving most of the day” I sat down next to her “Hey, Alex”

“Yeah whats up?”

“You know if I ever meet my grandfather, I would Imagine and hope he would be a lot like Sal”

“Jennifer don’t do this. You know we can’t get attached to anyone. It’s not fair for us and mostly them. You know full well that after this tour you will never see him again” she said in an irritated but sympathetic voice

“I know, but do you ever get tired of always lying about who we are and never being able to keep people in our lives. I know I do, it’s seems that the only people that seem to stay in our lives now a days are always the ones that we don’t like sticking around. You know I used to have dreams about having a normal life, one where i’m not dodging bullets, not getting a new identity every other week. No, no i'm sitting in a coffee shop, having a nice warm cup of tea and I don't run into an ex, instead i end up meeting the man that I’d spend the rest of my life with” my eyes began to glisten with the tears I refuse to let fall for a life that I was destined to never have, what’s the point of crying over something I never had and never will.

“Jenn..” She was about to say something else but I just stood up and walked to my bunk

“I should get some sleep” how stupid am I to let my feelings get to me. I have to make sure to keep a lid on them from now on

***Four days later***
The guys had all finished their fourth show on warped and so far i’m having a blast everyone here is just so energetic. And the fans absolutely love them all. Alex and I haven’t been able to do much snooping around yet, so far everyone seems to be hang low, probably until Juliet gets here. And as much as it pains me to say, she needs to hurry up and get here.

Today Alex and I will be joining both Falling in Reverse and Black Veil Brides for their meet and greet. They ended up having them at the same time today, and Ronnie thought it was about time to introduce his baby sisters to his fans, to the world. Alex and I were both in the bus pacing back and forth debating on our outfits, (Jenn's outfit. Alex's outfit) we wanted to make a good impression, one that said they belonged there.

“Will you two hurry up already i’m sure you two look amazing” Ronnie shouted of the front lounge.

“One minute” both Alex and I shouted in unison making the two of us laugh. We heard someone knock on the bus door, then everyone greeting someone. Alex and I both took one last look at each other

“Well, I guess this is the best we’ll get” she said walking to the front with the guys.

“Yeah but you look great and i’m, well me” I whispered heading back to the mirror to ‘fix’ my make up. again. I can hear everyone compliment Alex on how amazing she looks and I began to have second thoughts.

“Jenn hurry up we’re gonna be late” Andy said. Wait Andy is here now, that means everyone is here then. Yup i’m not going, it’s official

“I’ve changed my mind. I’m not going” I said putting my foot own although no one could see

"Jennifer Axenus! Get your ass out here now! You are going and that’s final” Ronnie used my full name, god I hate it when he does that! I’m not a child

“You can’t make me” next thing I knew I heard a loud sigh from the lounge then footsteps heading my way. I was expecting Ronnie, or Alex to come a drag me out of the bunk area but instead Andy came back. I crossed my arms over my chest.

“I’m not going” I pouted

“Yes you are now let’s go” he said sternly

“Nope” I sat down on a bunk

“Fine” Andy took a big step towards me

“Andy, what are you doi-” He threw me over his shoulder and walked off the bus toward a tent and set me down in a chair. I once again crossed my arms over my chest and glared at him, if looks could kill. Already the tent was surrounded by fans and already I can see most every girl there glare at me. So I just stuck mt tongue out at them and crossed my arms in protest.

Seeing how much these fans looked up to two of my favorite bands and my well family made me forget being mad at Andy and I was enjoying myself. I don’t know why I was so worried in the first place.

Alex and I just sat back watching everyone take pictures and signing things when I saw this little girl back behind everyone, she must have been only 4 or 5 years old. I walked around the crowd and knelt down next to her. “Hi there. Which band are you here to meet?”

“Umm” she shyly said swaying her hips. She soo cute! She slowly pointed towards Andy. a smile instantly grew on my face, even to 4 years olds Andy is a lady’s man.

“Ahh, I see” she then pointed to Ronnie “Well how would you like to meet both of them right now?” I lightly nudged her, and she smiled and laughed, rapidly shaking her head

“Well then let’s go” I picked her up to get her through the crowd and walked up to both Ronnie and Andy.

“Hey guys I have someone i’d like you to meet” Both Ronnie and Andy instantly became gushy and snatched the girl right out of my arms. I smiled to myself and let the girl have the time of her life. I left to get a smoke in before Ronnie announced who Alex and I were. I had just lit my cigarette when someone started shouting

“Alice! Alice where are you!” I saw a man that had to be only a little older than me frantically looking around. I walked over to him

“Sir, are you looking for someone?”

“Yes my daughter, I don’t know where she is. Have you seen her” damn his daughter, he’s really young and pretty hot I might add. I chuckled and pointed towards andy and Ronnie and Alice laughing to the point they all head tears in their eyes

“You mean that little girl” he looked over and his worried face instantly turned into a huge smile “I found her behind the crown in a complete awe over the band and she said that she wanted to see Andy and Ronnie so I did her one up and took her to meet them”

“Oh my god thank you so much” he pulled me into a hug, which shocked me at first but I still hugged back

“Come on, let’s go meet your daughter’s idols” he chuckled then followed me over. I introduced him to everyone and his daughter ran straight into his arms and started tell him all about her meeting Ronnie and Andy. when she was done talking to her dad she came over to me and thanked me for letting her meet the guys. After that I whispered in her ear

“Now, how would you like to help me prank the rest of the guys” her face lit up instantly
