I'd Die For You

*Jake's POV*

We had all our stuff pack and we all moved into Cambria's house. We were waiting for Jon to get ahold of us. We said bye to out friends and family. Our parents gave us money just so they know we could live out there without a worry. It wasn't until the very end of the week that Jon called Andy. We heard Andy talking and he was freaking out. Cambria came out and had the biggest grin on her face and we were just wondering what the hell was going on.

"Jon found a way to move us all without going on a plan, one since Roku and Chris are worry about the kids being to young else and the pug. So he found a new way for us to be getting out of here and they will be here in an hour." She smiled and walked back to wake up Ashley and Jess. Roku and Chris. They were all happy and I looked at Jinxx.

"This is really happening for us isn't it?" I had to ask, make sure I wasn't dreaming.

"It is really happening. We are going to LA and have a record deal for us!" Alice and Ella both giggled and tackle us into a hug. I swear the sofa beds were night but I wanted my bed back and that wouldn't be until the time we got to the new house.

We moved everything out of the house, Cambria handed the keys over to her land lords and even got her many back for ranting so long. We had everything in the yard and we were thinking of a moving trailer and van like we always have. When a fucking tour band and huge trailer hook to the back of it came into the street and stopped in front of us. We were all freaking out. There was no way we were going to be able to pay for this. What was even more great what he got moving guys too and they put our stuff in the trailer for us and Jon show us around the bus. Chris and Ashley ran to the back and making sure they were the first to get the beds. Jess and Roku just rolled their eyes and knew they would be stuck where ever the boys would be. Roku walked back to get the twins in a bed since they were at the nap time. It's going to be a long trip being on this bus. I was looking around and they had everything on here. We all picked out beds, and we then sit in the living area, while Jon and the bus driver were in the front with the address to our new home. It was more then we could have ask for and kinda sad to move away from everyone we been around.

"You know, we all never share stories, I mean with Chris, he shared everything with us but we never told him anything about ourselves ever. We know about people bulling him, that he was having a hard time with his mom's family and everything, but we never explain to him about us." Andy did have a point and some of us had a dark past. I sighed and he looked at me. "I'm guessing you want to go first?"

"I can if you guys want that. I mean Ella and I have a lot she share." I smiled at her. "See I lived in another state, been to a few actually. Though when my mom got sick, we moved here. I didn't meet Andy until grade school and didn't side with him until the first grade of middle school. I was a loner and didn't really want anything because I found out bad news about my mom. She was my main weird, even to my sister and father she was our main worry." It was getting really hard to talk about. My mom was still around but it killed me to be leaving here like this.

"It's okay babe, you can keep telling your story. I'm here for you." Ella kissed my cheek and I was glad I had her.

"Anyways, I ended up with a lot of trouble. When I first moved here. I tried to stick up for Andy in maybe it was like 2nd grade. The kids were messing with him on the playground and I went over and punched the kid in the face for it. The day after that, they beat my ass. Teach me and Andy a lesson that day." I just sighed a bit. I remember that day, they had Andy tied to a pole with a jumprope and throwing mud and everything at him because to them he was a freak and weird kid.

"That day I forgot about until now. Thanks Jake." He sighed and we all laughed, Chris seem really interested in hearing our stories.

"As we got older, I didn't let how James and them walked all over people. So I started working out and trying to be in shape, but then things with my mom was getting worse and it made me really depressed. I pulled away from all my friends I had and wouldn't even go to school anymore. One day I decided to go on this chatroom and that's where I met Ella. She was from the UK and we just talked and talked, she help me with so much and I asked my dad to go to the UK and see her. Well she was even more beautiful then her profile picture and I became a creepy and was stalking her before I even let her know I was the US boy she was to meet and talked to" I had to laughed at myself with that one even Ella laughed.

"Oh that was interesting to explain to my parents. Had to tell them that I fell in love with my stalker." She just laughed and I smile.

"She help me through a lot and when it came to her wanting to be with me, she moved to Ohio and we both just ganged up on the people that came after Andy and if we couldn't do much, we were at least there for a friend if he needed one. The kid had no one." I looked at Andy and he sighed. He hated reliving his childhood though he knows that he going to have to tell Chris about THAT night and what lead up to it, I think he was waiting for the rest of us to tell our story. "But yeah the stuff with my mom is good. I really hope nothing happens to her. Now I hand it over to Jinxx and Alice." I smirked a bit and Jinxx just sighed and try to think of where to begin with his story, always being really careful with his words.

"Let see, I guess that if you haven't notice Chris, I'm really into classical music other then just rock n roll. I play guitar but can play piano and violin too. I was made fun of in my home town for always being this kid dressing the way that I do and carrying a violin with me. But I wanted to learn it. I wante my grandfather's violin, so even though I was picked on so much for it, I still over came it. They only think is the bullying got worse for me and it made my parents want to move away. So that is was we did. We needed up here." He just sighed a bit. "It really wasn't any better, still in middle school and the creepy kid. Though they was this one girl that always seem to like me and was hanging out with me." He smiles at Alice and she just laughed.

"I thought he was a freak at first, but then one day I heard someone in the music room and I looked and it was him. I stood there for the longest time just watching him play between the violin, guitar and piano. He was really good at it and he even picked up on a cello too. It was just the make interesting guy in school." She smiles.

"Yeah, one day I was hanging out with Jake, we became friends on the frist day of school for me. I notice that Alice hang out with Ella and him a lot. He was the one that let me into their group, Andy at the time wasn't one for talking so when I was around, he didn't say much. It wasn't until the one day James came after him. I knock the kid hard on his ask. It actually made people freak me because I was always quiet and keeping to myself. But I know how it was being bully, it was easy for me to tell that Andy was near his break point. You will understand Chris, Andy is the reason a lot of us became friends. The only different is how we got out lovers. Hell Roku, Jess and Cambria didn't move here until the 2nd year of our middle school." Jinxx put his arm around Alice. "Anyways, but I asked Alice out and at frist it was a bit hard because her parents didn't care for me. It wasn't until I told my mom about it and she wanted to meet Alice's parents. So we made a dinier thing with the family."

"It was interesting at first, my parents were really iffy about it because Jinxx was raise in music like everyone else here. I wasn't but I did like guys with more to them. I couldn't stand normal guys so I begged my parents to meet with him. They didn't like how any of them were at first but after that night my parents change their view on people like Jinxx, Jake and Andy. They seen the great that was in them and were happy that I surrounded myself with such colorful people." Alice just laughed.

"We been dating since that day and I always made sure to protect everyone in the group, Jake and I would team up on people. Once I found out that Jake play guitar, him and I made a studio to work in and we been coming up with some really sick things." I laughed and agree with him but he smiled. "So yeah guess you can say things were bad at first. I think the worse thing I ever got was beaten up like Jake did, but in my hometown. Anyways, I'm happy now and I have Alice." He looked over at Ashley. "Your turn..." We all know he didn't like talking about his past but he had to.

"Let see, when I was 11, both my parents were killed. I ended up being raised by my grandmother and aunts and uncles. I been around music forever and I picked up on bass. I came from a really small town and I was the kid that no one liked because I was into country and rock music. They use to call me names and act like I was the evil person, but then would come to me for fashion known I was good with that kind of stuff. I got into a lot of fights too. I surf and skateboard. What caused my grandma to move was because I beat the shit out of his kid and put him in the hospital. We had to pay all the bills and my grandma knew that I wasn't just going to stand around. So we moved here to hope it would get better. I ended up with James and them. Playing football and going to partys." He looked at Andy and I seen him nodded. Yeah, Andy and Ashley weren't always friends. "There is a few times that I help beat up on Andy. I never hit him but I held him in place so that he couldn't run."

"James always made sure to be the one to hit me. Ashley only ever pushed me on the ground." Andy sighed and closed his eyes.

"It's not like I wanted to but to be with James and them, it was their job to keep Andy down. James was hoping to push him to the point of where Cambria found him. The one day I ended up going to my grandma about it. I didn't want to hurt a kid that was facing shit that I was once put through before I beat the shit out of them. She told me that I should side with the kid that needs the help. That maybe hanging with him would get me to control myself a bit from wanting to hurt people. I was fighter though. So the new day I went into school. I made sure these two were not around, because they would kick my ass. I found Andy crying in the one bathroom. It turned out that James jumped him and really beat up on him. He had a black eye when I found him. He didn't trust me at first but I kinda forced him to the nurse office and stay with him. We just started talking and the next thing you know we had more interest then I did with the other kids. All four of us had the same dream, to be in a rock band." Ashley was right about that one.
"It wasn't until a few months after Ashley that Roku, Cambria and I moved here. Roku and Cambria been best friends for a while and when Roku couldn't stand the shit with her family, she asked Cambria if she wanted to move to Ohio, just the two of them at first. But I wanted to go with her, she's my cousin. The only one that actually pays attention to me. So after telling out parents we were moving. They got a house together here in Ohio. We even got ourselves into school. No one didn't know we live alone." Jess just laughed. "When I started the school, I ended up falling in love with this outlaw guy. He was with the group by the time we got there and I was really shy and didn't want to talk to him. Roku being my cousin forced me to go talk to him but going up to him and being like 'Hey, she likes you, now both of you talk and get to know each other.' I could have killed her for that one."

"Well you're happy she did now because we are together and I didn't go for that other girl like I was planning on going with." Ashley just looked at Jess and she laugh.

"Well if you would have, she would have controlled you like a puppet on a string." Jess just smirked at him. "Your taste of wamen suck before you met me." We all had to agree with that one and laughed.

"Yeah I didn't think of the money users." He just laughed more. "Anyways, but her and I hooked up because of her cousin making that move. See I did have my eyes on her but they all made friends with Jake and them before I could get close and I was still with James and them when the girls first came. But I seen that Andy needed the most help. The kid would just let everyone walk over him and it really got to me. So I beat the shit out of James, gave what he gave Andy every day of the week. They tried to gang up on me a few time but I put all of them in the hospital at one time or the other. My grandma told me she gave up on trying to keep me away from that but told me that it was a good thing someone was protecting the kid. Anyways, the real person that save Andy wasn't us. We didn't see how much he was hurting. We protect him, but we didn't see the signs, not like Cambria seen. Because once I started dating Jess, the other two just follow and Cambria was the closest to Andy more then the reason of us. We were there trying to protect him. She was the one keeping a close eye on him." Ashley was right about that one.

"Yeah, all my life I was in different schools, my parents trying to find me somewhere that I would be liked in but no matter what I got my ass kicked, I got called names and everything. By the time middle school came, I couldn't really pay attention anymore. I had people that were will to protect me but I couldn't thank any of them because I was so lost. Cambria tried to reach out to me, she tried to get me to realize that I had some much for me. I liked her a lot, the first girl I ever liked. I mean that wasn't a friend like. It was more of me falling in love with her. But I thought that I wasn't good enough for her so I tried to push her away." Andy sighed and I could tell he hated this part of his story.

"Roku and I were the first wants to notice that Andy was too far gone to be save. Roku told me that I needed to get close to him." Cambria just looked down. No one like talking about this part of our past. We wanted to forget about it but it wasn't that easy. Chris needed to know what he was getting into and how close we are as a family.

"It's true love, Andy is a lot better now, but you didn't know him in middle school like the rest of us. He looked like he was going to end his life at any time. It got to the point that Cambria and I didn't want to leave him alone. With us being the only single ones in the group. We were able to pick up that he was that far gone. I mean I know the feeling believe me, my dad and sister. I needed to get out of my house and Cambria help me with that. I miss my mom but that's why I was in Ohio and not Cali like we plan to be." Roku smiles a bit.

"I just couldn't deal with things, I was on different medicines and none were helping at all so I told my parents I wanted off them. They did take me off them but then I only got bad, my depression was so bad. What everyone didn't know that James and them still attacked me, waited for me to be alone and would beat me up for the guys beating them up, or just doing random things to me. Called me names, messed with my mind. It was getting so bad that the school wanted to lock me away in one of them hospital things for mental kids. But my parents wouldn't allow it. Told them that they need to force the no bullying instead of ingoring it. One day, it just got to me really bad." He looked down, this was the hardest on him and still messed with him. Cambria held his hand tightly and he just looked at her smiling softly before clearing his throat to talk more. "They found out that I liked Cambria, they found out that she was the only person I would let into my house any time of the day or night."

"I didn't know they were after him so bad, that day in school, he was really upset and crying. I tried everything to calm him down and nothing was working. What really set him off that day was the fact that everyone found out he was in love with me and they came after him for it, telling him he didn't deserve love." Cambria looked at him. Andy was really quiet right now, we all knew why too, he was getting ready to tell something he only ever told us and that only Cambria seen.

"We tried to shut everyone up. We tried to make sure that it wouldn't get back to him. Cambria even hid the fact that she knew, but it didn't stop him from finding out that she knew." Ashley looked down, this was never easy for us. We almost lost Andy that night, we would have went to check on him and his brains would be all over his room.

"We tried to calm him down. We didn't know how bad it was and when we all went to hold him back, to get him out of it. He took it as we betrayed him." Jinxx looked away now and Alice just hugged him.

"I even try to talke some sense into him, we go back from grade school. Longer then the others but I couldn't." Ella put an hand on my leg. "I went to stop him from running and he ripped through my arms. He ran out of school and we all ran after him. We didn't want him alone. We didn't trust what he would do. But the kid ran fast and we lost him. We all went with our girls too look for him." I just sighed.

"I was the one that went to his house. Roku went back to our house to make sure he didn't show up there. He knows we were always the cloest to him. But I had a feeling he was at home. His parents weren't home and he would be alone. I walked up to his house, and grabbed the key. After that, I looked around his house. I called out to him and I heard him moving upstairs so I went there." Cambria looked at Andy to see if he was ready to take over.

"I heard her coming up and if it wasn't for the gun in my mouth I would have told her to not come up. But it all happen so fast, she open the door and screamed my name. The next thing was the gun being pulled around for my head and ripped out of my hand and she just wrapped me into a bear hug so that I couldn't move. I lost it and just break down crying, it took me a while to relax and just let her hold me because I needed someone there for me. She told me that she knew everything and that she loved me too. So told me she wanted me to be happy and wanted to be there with me. That she will never leave my side again. We talked for hours and by the time we were done talking. I asked her out and to be with me forever. If it wasn't for her ripping the gun out of my hand. I really wouldn't be here. I never wanted to fall that low, I thought I could handle myself, but it shows even the strongest person has that breaking point. My parents did send me to a mental hopsital. Told me that I needed it, just for a week or until I was better. Almost losing their only son scared them more then anything. That's where I started working on writing. Where them two songs started, just needed the right help to get them done." He smiles at Chris and we all could tell that Chris seem to zone out a bit. It's like he was lost in thoughts.

"I knew there were bad things about everyone's past, but I didn't know that full meaning. You all really didn't have to share that with me." He just seems so beat like he was feeling bad that he didn't tell us everything. "There is more to my story too, Liz was prego one time, but because of a car crash she lost the baby. What makes the story even more fucked up, it was Matt's." We all were looking at him in shock.

"What are you talking about? We thought she was using you to get with your cousin." I know I was a bit too mean. but I didn't care. "I think you need to talk Chris, I mean it seems that you don't like telling the whole story."

"I don't, I try to forget it, but if Andy can hide something like that. I guess I can deal with my past too. See, yes she did use me to get to Nick. When she found out Nick was dead because of my stupid idea. She freaked out on me and left for a while. When she found out my dad got a good job and had money. She came back to me, but I didn't know she was with Matt. Matt and I were friends, even before Nick showed up. But Nick isn't as prefect as everyone thought he was. He was younger but the biggest bully to me. He turned everyone against me and told people about how rich my family was going to be. I always tried to be nice to him, always but he never was. Only around family, he was trying to take me out in the house, but I ran when I got free. It should have been me that was killed there. Sarah don't know that though. She never knew about the torture my own cousin did." He cuddled Aiden in his arms. They didn't want to leave the 1 year olds in the back alone.

"Then what happen love? What made them hate you so much that killing seems to be the biggest thing." Roku just looked at him and Chris was shaking. Something tells me this wasn't a good story, maybe as bad as Andy's.

"When Nick died, everyone told me it should have been me. Matt was trying to protect me, but then Liz came over and was like, 'he's my boyfriend, I didn't know you two knew each other.' it upset him and he just looked at me with so much hate, and walked off. Later that night he called me and told me if it was true. I told him that she left me because of Nick dying, then he told me that she was sleeping with him. We thought that it was a plan to turn us against each other. So we just went along with it. Here's the fucked up part, I was driving home with Liz when we went to a party. I know I shouldn't have drink and drive, but in Cali and when you're young. LA is your playground, I ended up crashing the car and putting me and Liz in a hospital." He sighed and just closed his eyes. "When I woke up, being in a medicine force coma because I had broken bones like hell. Matt was there, everything was like it was, but I seen something in his eyes. Something that scared the shit out of me."

He pause for a while. We don't know what he was thinking but it wasn't making him cling any less to Aiden. It was starting to worry us, so Andy moved to take Aiden out of his arms before he cling to the kid too tight. Chris thanked him and he let out a sigh to finish his story.

"He asked me if I knew if Liz was prego. I told him know, note that I was on fucking drugs for pain of broken bones and just woke up from a coma. He told me that she was and because of me being stupid and not listening to him, the baby was killed. What shocked me next was that they were together still and that she wasn't even to be with me that night. He knew she was going to have his baby. I didn't know, no one told me anything. See when she found out about the baby, she had them check and it was Matt's, they decided to get together again for their child. They both blame me for ruining their family. It's why she was so pissed when she found out about the twins. It's why I fear every fucking day they are going to just be there to take them away." He sighs a bit. "Anyways, but Matt told me he would make me pay, that Liz plan worked and we were enemies now. Matt was with a gang too, they hurt and kill people and I fell victim to that gang. It got to the point that if I would not show up when the other band members did. He would send them to my house and beat the shit out of me. My dad came home that one time. My sister was hurt too and my mom blame me for everything from my cousin's death to where we put her behind bars here. For a while I thought everything was my fault."

"But it's not you fault Chris and you have all of us. We are going to be living a dream and they won't be able to touch us." I was trying to make him feel better and he just laughed a bit.
"I want to think that, I really do but Liz and Matt are both out there. We are going to LA, they hometown, my hometown. They know the streets as well as I know them. And they run things. Most of the gang is locked up or were killed. So it's only them two since we killed the other 3. But they promise to make me pay for the lost because now Liz can't have kids at all. Turns out when I crashed it was into a shop, when the glass broke it went through her stomach. So yeah, it cut the baby in two and made it that she couldn't have kids." He shiver a bit. "They won't stop, not until I can get rid of them, get them locked up or something. They killed everyone that ever tried to be friends or my lover. It got so bad that they tried lighten my house on fire with me and my family in it. My dad had enough and we moved. We changed out numbers, moved to a new state away from Cali. I should have got them off my facebook but would send me messages that if I didn't add them they would make my life hell. It's why when things were getting really bad I was trying to push you all away." He just looked up at us.

"Man, you don't have to push us away, we are here for you and as a member of BVB, you need to stay with us. We will protect you and be there to help you. There is no way they are going to get you or Roku or the kids. We won't let them." I smiled at him and he just laughed again.
"You guys don't get it do you? They weren't going to let you three got, they were going to kill you in the most horrible way. They were going to cut up Andy to the point that he would just bleed out and die. Sorry to be so dark but true, they were going to wait until you were barely able to think and then probably cut your throat to make it that you choked on your own blood." He looked at me. "They only beat you down known that you and Jinxx would stop them from doing that to Andy. Though, I'm sure you know the kicks were meant to do more then hurt." I remember that, it was like they were trying to kick me so hard that their boots would be like knives. "And she shot you, she was toying with you, as soon as she was bored, she would have shot you in the head." We were really messing with the wrong people.

"Dude, this is so not cool...." Jinxx was getting a bit freak out and you can't creep out a creeper.
"It's not, that's had band them two are. It's why I jumped in front of Roku when Liz went after her. I knew she would do something to hurt the twins. It's why she gave up on you all and went after me. A family for a family...." He just got up and walked around. We were all just sitting there in shock.

"I'm going to put the kids to bed and go talk to him." Roku took Aiden from Andy and walked back with both of them. We just heard whispers until everything was quiet.

"I'm not going to let them hurt him like this. He didn't do anything wrong and being told he did isn't right. Chris needs our help and we need to protect Roku and the kids." Andy was looking at all of us. "Being on tour will be the best for us. We sign to this record company, we make our records and we go on tour. We make sure we can travel with you girls and the kids. We need to keep them all safe until Liz and Matt are behind bars or dead."

"Andy, you do know if they are this bad, we might not have good luck in LA?" Ashley was right.
"They will find us anywhere, think about it. We become a rock band, our names everywhere. There is going to be no hiding. We have to keep that promise, to protect him and them. I would be dead if it wasn't for Cambria and you guys. We need to be there and face that we aren't in high school anymore, we can rule this world and we can make sure that if we go missing, everyone going to know about it. I knew there was more to his story. Matt was really trying to kill me, he had the knife at my throat when he heard Liz scream and the shot that killed his friends. He ran, was fucking scared and ran." That was the first time we heard what happen in that bad room. "He told me they were going to kill us all, because they wanted Chris to feel what they felt. He just didn't know we were all smarter and came from different backgrounds of things." Andy smirk. "This is war..." We all laughed.

"We watch everything around us, we keep Chris busy that his mind don't go back to what happen in LA. Hell I'll go out and party with him just to make sure that we can have fun but don't do anything stupid." Ashley smirked.

"We are going to do stupid things, drugs, sex and rocknroll. Though without the drugs that is." Jinxx just laughed and we all looked at the time. We been on the road for about 4 hours.

"I'm heading to bed guys." They all looked at the time and nodded, it was time for the bed, we still had a while to go before we were in LA. "Goodnight..." I take Ella's hand and go back to our bunk. It wasn't long before everyone else was in bed and asleep. I kissed Ella before going to check on Chris, Roku and the kids. They were all fast asleep though Chris was still shaking a bit. "Chris?" I kept my vioce down and he open his eyes slowly to look at me.

"I'm fine, I'm sorry about that. I didn't mean to scare or worry anyone." He sighs a bit and held Roku close to him. "I just felt bad, you all told me really deep shit and you barely knew the main part of mine. I didn't mean to go into details like that. I'm really sorry Jake." He just looked at me like he was so beat.

"Don't worry, Andy is planning to keep us really busy. So just relax, we will always be around, and the girls will always be around. You have nothing to worry about. You're our brother and we will protect you as one." I smile at him and he relax some, I seen him calm down more.

"Thanks Jake, really, I guess I just had to find a good group of people then bad ones." He smiled and just cloes his eyes, he must have been tired because he was out as soon as his eyes closed. I walked back to Ella to see she was asleep so I just ended up going to bed too. We should be in LA in the next few days, I really couldn't wait to be in a great city.

A/N: So yeah, this story has some really bit twist and turns and yeah now you know everyone's dark past for the story. Even more of Chris though that's done now, it's out and just shows this isn't the end just yet.

Notes
