Love To Hate Me

The drug in me is you

I was walking through the bus areas today and trying to sell Black Veil Brides shirts. I put on one cut up the sides and found a couple fans eating. I walk up and say," Hey guys, I am the merch seller for Black Veil Brides. You want a shirt? It's 15 for this one and 25 for the special tour shirt."
The tallest guy in group says," Hell yeah. Guys lets help this girl out."
They started to pull out there wallets out and pay for their shirts. I smile and say," Thanks guys. Have a kick ass time." The went on their way as I approach my next group of kids. I wave at them and say," Thank you guys for coming out. I have t shirts and other merchandise."
The kids laugh and say," Of course. We would love to but we didn't bring nearly enough for all the shirts we would need."
I smile and say," I will give you a discount. You guys seem really nice and why not. "
I hand them seven tees and get a fifty. I put the money in the pouch I had to carry. I walk passed a bunch of buses looking for people to sell merchandise too. I end up in the spot me and Ronnie used to sneak around to make out. Yeah I know that sounded badly but he said no one wanted us together. I look at the exist and say," Ronnie?"
Ronnie looks at me with tears and says," Yeah?" I run and hug him tightly. His arms felt so good around me again. My heart was beating so fast, I swear Ronnie probably felt it beating.
He smiles and says," Finally, a moment we can talk in private. Do you remember all the memories we had here?"
I pull away and say," Yeah I do. I was just thinking about all the times we hid because of what people thought."
Ronnie looks in my eyes and says," I am sorry. I just didn't want to lose Falling In Reverse. My manager was being a Bitch and said that I needed to stay single for the fans. "
I sigh and say," I know it's the same old story though. We never got to go out or hold hands in public. It made me feel like shit. I couldn't even be cuddle against you without the manager breaking us up."
Ronnie licks his lips and says," I know. Words can't explain how sorry I am and how different I wanted those years to go."
I smile and say," There was a lot of stuff to love about those years with you. I think I am going to get going. You can text me. I only sold a couple shirts." I go to walk away and get pulled in to Ronnie.
Ronnie smirks and says," Not so fast baby." He leans in and attaches our lips together. I kiss back for a couple minutes then pull away. He gives me that signature bad boy smile and says," Wow that was an amazing kiss."
I nod my head in agreement as I run away to the nearest place full of people.
Craig sees me and says," What's up with you? You look as white as ghost."
I sigh and say," Just the past. The past haunts me. Ronnie kind of just kissed me."
Craig looks in my eyes and says," Ashley, the past can't affect you if you don't let it. If you still like him maybe you should give it a chance. Just don't get your feelings hurt."
I play with the ends of his hair and say," There's just one problem."
He looks down and says," What is it?"
I check Craig out and say," I like someone else as well as him."
Craig moves in to where our lips are almost touching and says," Whose that?"
I smile and push our desperate lips together. Craig's hands fall to my waist and pulls me in against his body.
I pull away and look in to those beautiful Brown eyes waiting for my reaction. I smile and say," Who knew? You are a great kisser. You are just so gentle."
Craig laughs and says," Thanks I guess. You want to go grab some food after the show?"
I nod and bite my lip at his invite. He chuckles and says," And maybe that too? I know I have been thinking about it."
We wave goodbye as he only has thirty minutes to get ready for the show. I sell fifteen more shirts off the bat. The last thirty minutes of Black Veil Brides is playing. I turn my back to walk back to the bus. I have a date with Craig? Maybe I am just going to be someone to talk with the band. I am so confused does Craig like me?
I check my phone to see Ronnie's name pop up. I open the message that says," Do you remember what we did before every show ? You looked great today;)"
I laugh at his silly message and reply," What has gotten in to you? You haven't been as cocky as you usually are. Yes I remember. I still have the pictures of us."
Ronnie texts back as I finally reach the bus to lay down. Ronnie's text read," Uhm. Really? I have some great shots of you as well ;). Maybe we should end end the torture?😚."
I laugh at his attempts to flirt and think about all the times he made me feel beautiful. I can't believe he held on to the special pictures I sent to him.
An hour of silly texting went on before I heard a knock upon my door. I open the door and Craig says," Ready to go?"
I laugh and say," Where to my prince?
He grabs my waist and says," How about some fast food? Taco Bell?"
I jump up and say," I love Taco Bell."
He smirks and says," A girl after my own heart."
We went to Craig's car and head out to the nearest Taco Bell where we ordered food then came back to the bus. When we get in the bus I kiss his check gently.
He looks in to my eyes and says," If you would only stop teasing. I could show you how un gentle I could be." He winks on last time and starts to eat his food. We eat for forty minutes then decide to cuddle in my room.
Craig looks at as I change into my sleep wear. We plug in our phones then watch movies until one o clock in the morning.
I look at him and say," Craig?"
