It's Called Warped Because Hell Was Already Taken

(CC's POV)

Surrounded by all these awesome band members, I don't think I could ask for anything more.
The party was getting started as the community bottle of Jack made it's way around.
Music started playing and I started singing along to All Time Low with Ashley.
"It was like a time bomb set into motion, we knew we were destined to explode!"
What can I say?
We're professional party animals.
After another minute, Ashley stood up and made his way to Andy.
"Hey Jinxx." I smiled at him.
The slight buzz made me confident in myself as I scooted closer to him.
I could feel the heat radiating off his body, his perfect body.
"Hey C." 
"How ya doing?" I wrapped an around around him, leaning my head onto his chest.
It was quite comfortable and I wished I could do this more often.
"I'm doing okay." he smiled, watching Andy and Ashley.
We couldn't hear what they were saying, and Andy's long hair was covering his face but Ashley looked happy.
"What about you?" Jinxx asked me.
"I'm okay."
"You sure? You've been pretty upset the last few weeks."
"I guess." I sighed.
"Do you want to talk about?" he asked softly, turning to look at me.
"Kind of." I mumbled before I could catch myself.
"Do you want to go back to the bus?" he asked.
"Sure."
Looking over, Ashley had wrapped his arms around Andy's waist, a peaceful smile on his lips.
"I think they've finally made up." I commented.
"Good. I've been trying to get Andy to talk to Ash for days now and nothings worked. We'll leave them alone." Jinxx stood up.
We left the two lovers behind, happy with the outcome of that situation.
"So what's wrong?" Jinxx asked me once we were away from the others.
The only other sounds you could hear were our quiet footsteps as we padded towards the tour bus.
"There's someone I like..." I trailed off, biting my lip.
"Really? CC, that's great!"
I laughed. "Jinxx, you sound like a teenage girl."
"What am I supposed to do? Act like an overprotective dad? I'm sorry Christian, she's not good enough for you." he laughed.
"Um, it's not a girl."
"Oh? In that case, no boy is good enough for my CC."
"I'm being serious Jeremy."
He flinched when I used his full name but didn't say anything.
"Who is it?"
"I can't tell you, but I really love him. He's wonderful, cute, funny, and really talented."
"Wow. I'd date him." 
"Yeah...the problem is, he's already dating someone. But I don't think he loves her very much!"
We had reached the tour bus by now. He kept quiet as we got inside, locking the door behind us.
"What are you thinking?" I asked.
"About you, actually."
I could feel a blush creeping onto my cheeks, but I looked away.
"Why?"
"You're so sweet and adorable." he started. "I don't know how someone would chose their girlfriend over you."
"Really?"
"Yeah. You know what I think you should do?"
"What?"
"The next time you see him, wrap him in a hug and kiss him."
"Seriously?" I asked, bewildered. 
"Yes. Prove to them you love them and maybe they'll start to consider. If you don't think they love their girlfriend as much as they claim they do, what's to stop you?"
I closed my eyes, taking in a deep breath.
The next time I saw him? 
I could do that.
I opened my eyes, looking into his.
His black hair framed his pale face perfectly, a few wispy strands sticking out.
He was perfect.
I licked my lips, gazing into his chocolate brown orbs for a second longer before trailing my gaze down to his rosy lips.
I leaned in, breathing slowly.
My forehead muzzled the side of his face before I turned and kissed him softly.
He froze for a second and fear coursed through my body.
This was a bad idea.
After a second of hesitation he started to kiss me back, harder.
I soft sigh escaped my lip and his hands started to weave into my hair.
He pushed me closer to him, letting a moan escape from his lips.
This was it. 
The moment I've been waiting for for months.
I knew he didn't love Sammi, there was someone else he loved more.
That guy was me after all.
I smiled into the kiss, pulling away slowly.
Gazing into his eyes, they were filled with confusion and awe.
"I'm the guy you like?" he breathed.
"Yeah." I nodded, smiling.
"I don't know what to say."
"Don't say anything then; words are superfluous anyway. Just kiss me."
I didn't wait for an answer, just leaned in and kissed him again.

"Christian?" 
I opened my eyes to the pale morning light.
"Yeah?"
"Wake up."
I laughed, sitting up.
We were nestled together on his bunk, holding on to each other.
Last night came rushing back, putting the biggest smile on my face.
We didn't fuck, but we didn't need to.
We kissed and then we fell asleep together.
"I'm awake." 
"Where is everyone?"
We looked around, but we were the only ones on the bus. 
"My guess is Andy and Ashley spent the night having make-up sex and Jake passed out somewhere." I suggested.
At the mention of Jake, something flashed across Jinxx's face.
Regret?
Longing?
I ignored it, focused on getting dressed.
"Come on, we're going to spend the day together." I kissed his forehead.
Once we were dressed, basically in our concert get-up, minus the war paint we ventured outside.
"I can't believe that happened last night." Jinxx whispered to himself.
"I know." I couldn't stop smiling.
He ruffled my hair, even though he was the shorter one.
"What are you going to do about Sammi?" I suddenly asked.
I forget they were fucking engaged!
"I've been thinking of breaking it for awhile now." he admitted.
I pulled him in for a hug, kissing his lips once more.
"I love you Jinxx."
It was true, I had fallen for him long ago and I knew I loved him.
"...I love you too." he seemed nervous and hesitant but he said it nonetheless.
Fucking yes!
My life was finally starting to go the way I wanted!
He was actually in love with me!
"What are we going to do?" I asked, once we reached the venue.
It was after noon, we had slept most of the morning.
I felt sorry for the guys who had gotten drunk and had an early set time.
"Falling in Reverse plays in an hour, and then we're after them. Let's go watch them." Jinxx suggested.
"Okay."
We linked hands, walking towards the main stage.
We were almost there when a voice started calling our names. 
"Jinxx! CC!" 
It was Jake.
We stopped, letting him catch up to us. Jinxx instantly let go of my hand and I felt a bit of loneliness wash through me.
It was for the best.
He was still engaged to Sammi, no one had to know yet.
"What's up?" I asked.
"We need to get ready. We're on soon." Jake panted.
"No we're not." Jinxx stated. "Falling in Reverse is next, then us."
"FIR cancelled." Jake informed us.
"Why?"
"Something happened to Ronnie. I don't know what, that's all Andy told me. Let's go!"
Sighing, we rushed off backstage.
Andy was already there, pacing manically.
He seems worried, but somehow managed to put his war paint on.
"Hey Andy." 
"Jinxx. CC. Jake." he addressed us all by name, obviously distracted.
"Where's Ashley?" I asked, looking around.
"Why the fuck should I care?" Andy finally broke his pacing, looking annoyed.
"Didn't you guys make up?" Jake asked.
"No. He was being a fucking douche bag last night. I haven't heard from him since he walked off. I thought he left for the tour bus." Andy answered.
"Oh."
"I'll call him." Jinxx offered, taking out his cell phone.
Jake and I started putting on our war paint, making sure our  instruments were set up.
"He didn't answer." Jinxx told us, coming back.
"What do we do now?" I asked.
"Play the show without him." Andy answered simply.
