We finished the concert and went off the stage. BVB stood backstage and waited for their turn to go out on stage. Andy stood on the side of the stage with a shocked facial expression. Had something happened?
He noticed that I looked on him and smiled that smile he'd smiled the first day we met. It still had the same effect on me. I could feel my heart skip a beat. I walked faster and went out through the door.
Andy's POV
I looked after her when she walked out through the door. That seemed to be the only thing she did these days… walk away.
Ashley tapped on my shoulder. "It's time", he said and ran out on the stage.
I ran after him and started to sing We Stitch These Wounds. The fans went crazy when I started to sing.
We also played Children Surrender, Never Give In, Knives And Pens, Perfect Weapon, All Your Hate, The Mortician's Daughter and Sweet Blasphemy.
After the concert waited an almost three hours long signing. I didn't feel like meeting all the fans today but felt like I had to. I couldn't let them down. A good thing was that I got to see Liz.
She stood and talked with some fans. She smiled all the time and laughed together with her fans. Now and then she looked over at me with an angry look.
We went back to the bus after the signing. Ashley and CC started with the alcohol right away and put on some music. Looks like I wouldn't be sleeping anytime soon.
No one skips Ash's and CC's parties.
It all ended with that Jinxx broke the table, Jake threw up in Ash's bed and I fell asleep in the shower.
I didn't wake up until three pm the next day. Jinxx walked around in the bus and cleaned everything up while Jake tried to fix the table.
I went out for a smoke. There on the big parking lot sat Liz on the ground with her back towards me. It was a really hot day today so she only had a bikini top and jeans. Down her spine was a long tattoo with the text NEVER GIVE IN. I'd never seen it before but it made me smile.
The door closed behind me and Liz looked back. She threw the cigarette she had in her hand on the grand and walked towards her bus when she saw that it was me who stood there.
"Liz! Wait!" I shouted before she opened the door.
She turned around slowly. "What do you want?" she asked.
"Why are you so mad at me?" I asked and started to walk towards her.
"Are you kidding me? You don't know why? For real?" she said.
"Would I as if I knew?"
"Are you retarded? You left me. You said you loved me and you left me and never came back!" she said.
"I went on tour! I didn't have a choice!" I said.
"You didn't have to go, you wanted to!" she said.
"Of course I wanted to! It was my chance to make my dream come through. I had fought for it for years! Why are you so angry over that?" I asked.
"Because you never even thought about how I felt about it. And then I get to hear from Sammi that she's moving with California with you guys!" she growled. "You just left me without saying anything!"
"I didn't leave you Liz", I said and stood now in front of her.
"Oh really? Well I never saw you in Cincinnati again", she said.
"I came back."
"No you didn't!"
"Yes Liz, I did. When the tour was over I went back to Ohio to take you with me to California", I said.
"What stopped you?" she asked.
"David", I said.
"What?" she asked and seemed confused.
"He basically screamed at me to leave. Said that you was over me and had some new guy called James or something", I explained.
She just stood there and looked at me for a while before she said something. "David hasn't said a word since our parent died."
"Well he did that time", I said and started to walk back to my bus.
"Andy! Wait!" she shouted and started to run towards me.
