Die for You

A few days after Blaze's chance to break in to our house, things began to settle down, there wasn't any sign of Blaze and I felt like I could breathe for once without his vice around me and trying to consume me. I took a deep breath as I stood in my new dress that I was going to be wearing for tonight's performance on The Voice. I wore a light golden to black corset dress, cross earrings, my Gothic tiara, a golden spiked bracelet, black leather fingerless gloves and black high heeled boots. The dress touched the floor and my dark red hair was in a braid. Tonight, I was performing 'Wide Awake' by Katy Perry, a song that I wanted to sing and work with Adam on. It basically fit me up to now, falling in love with Andy and having him make me into a bigger and stronger person and having him give me the faith I needed to heal and move on. I was excited to do it and get it done. I smiled at my reflection in the mirror, pursed my red lips and got ready to head onstage. I took the steps out for the stage and took my place on stage, I had made it into the semi-finals, and I was very excited because I had the sense that I might actually win this thing. I listened as I heard the video clip played of me talking about why I chose 'Wide Awake' for this week. It was down to me, a rocker named Caroline and a pop singer named Blair. I just waited for my cue and when I did, I began to sing:

"I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake
Yeah, I was in the dark
I was falling hard
With an open heart
I'm wide awake
How did I read the stars so wrong?
I'm wide awake
And now it's clear to me
That everything you see
Ain't always what it seems
I'm wide awake
Yeah, I was dreaming for so long

I wish I knew then
What I know now
Wouldn't dive in
Wouldn't bow down
Gravity hurts
You made it so sweet
'Til I woke up on
On the concrete

Falling from cloud nine
Crashing from the high
I'm letting go tonight
Yeah, I'm falling from cloud nine

I'm wide awake
Not losing any sleep
I picked up every piece
And landed on my feet
I'm wide awake
Need nothing to complete myself, no

I'm wide awake
Yeah, I am born again
Out of the lion's den
I don't have to pretend
And it's too late
The story's over now, the end

I wish I knew then
What I know now
Wouldn't dive in
Wouldn't bow down
Gravity hurts
You made it so sweet
'Til I woke up on
On the concrete
Falling from cloud nine (it was out of the blue)
I'm crashing from the high
I'm letting go tonight (yeah, I'm letting you go)
I'm falling from cloud nine

I'm wide awake
Thunder rumbling
Castles crumbling
I'm wide awake
I am trying to hold on
I'm wide awake
God knows that I tried
Seeing the bright side
I'm wide awake
I'm not blind anymore...

I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake

Yeah, I'm falling from cloud nine (it was out of the blue)
I'm crashing from the high
You know I'm letting go tonight (yeah, I'm letting you go)
I'm falling from cloud nine.."

I opened my eyes and I heard the crowd cheer and I smiled brightly as I saw Andy, Bam, and Rob on their feet. I chuckled and blew them all a kiss and it was all a blur before I was escorted backstage to change into my clothes. A Metal Mulisha American Flag dress, black tights and my DC shoes. I pulled my hair out of the braid and put on my Electric sunglasses. I then heard a knock on my dressing room door and I jumped.

"Come in." I said. I then looked up into the mirror to see Andy, who had a black rose in his hand and I smiled softly. I went back to the mirror and ran my fingers through my hair before I noticed Andy's reflection in the mirror. His blonde hair made his icy electric blue eyes shine more and I loved it. He handed me the rose and I took it. Andy's arms wrapped around me and he leaned his head on my shoulder.

"You looked so beautiful tonight, Faith." He murmured. I smiled a little and I turned to kiss him on the cheek.

"Thank you, Light." I whispered. He kissed my temple gently and I still couldn't help but think of Blaze and whatever he had planned. Blaze has threatened to kill Andy if we don't give up Blayde to him and I know that we won't. I don't want my daughter around that sick bastard. Andy's hand lifted my chin and I met his electric icy blue eyes again. I still felt a little afraid of what Blaze's motives were.

"I know you're thinking about Blaze," Andy said. "Faith, he isn't gonna hurt you. I won't let that happen. You know that."

I nodded and Andy pulled me into his arms as he kissed the top of my head.

"You know I'll fight for you," Andy told me. "Always. I love you, Faith. I love you to death."

"I know. I love you too, Light." I said and Andy kissed me gently for a few moments, I could taste the cigarettes he smoked in his breath and when we pulled apart, Andy kissed the top of my head.

I then heard a boot against the door and I jumped as Andy chuckled. Bam then walked in with Rob and I rolled my eyes. Thanks, Margera. I thought, gritting my teeth for a second.

"Smooth, Margera." Andy said.

"Shut up, Six." Bam replied, as he went over to the mirror to refix his hat and glasses, he had a fedora hat, a black with silver metallic thin striped jacket, a Cradle of Filth shirt, jeans and combat boots.

"At least I knocked," Rob said. "Bam's a dick, so you shouldn't be expecting anything less."

Andy and I laughed as Bam rolled his eyes at Rob's comment and he put his glasses back on. Andy took my hand and he squeezed my fingers gently.

"Faith," Andy murmured.

"Yes, Light?"

"There's something I wanted to tell you," Andy replied. "There's an art show tomorrow night that we have planned for the re release of Wretched and Divine and I want you to come along."

"Of course, I'll go along." I said. "I'll also draw some stuff for the show. Rob, do you have any blank skate decks I can use?"

Rob looked at me and he thought about it for a second.

"Yeah," Rob told me. "I have some. Why?"

"I need a few of them to draw on. Andy and Black Veil Brides are doing an art show tomorrow night and I want to display my work," I explained.

"I'll lend you a few. Go nuts." Rob replied.

"Thank you, Dyrdek." I hugged Rob and pecked him on the cheek and Rob blushed and I giggled softly. We all left and went out for some drinks at the bar and I began to get my ideas for the art show, I was drawing a basic sketch on a napkin with my black pen and I drew a dragon spitting fire in the shape of a Mourning Star, the logo for Black Veil Brides. Rob had given me five blank skateboard decks and we went home so I could begin drawing. I took the first board and I grabbed some paints and began to paint the design. I drew a blood-red dragon in a night landscape, and the flames that came out in the shape of the Mourning Star was in blue flames. My next piece that I was going to do was a vampire bat with a Mourning Star rosary necklace around its neck, I drew the bat and had blood dripping from its fangs. I also drew a Dracula-like cape on it as well. My third piece was a wolf howling in a Gothic woods scene, the wolf was a Timber Wolf and the stars in the sky were all Mourning Stars. My fourth piece was going to be a white tiger with a Mourning Star on its forehead. My last piece, is going to be a heart with the moon in a starless sky and an angel that I'm working with Andy. Called 'When Faith Meets Light'. The banner on the bottom had mine and Andy's handwriting on it, just like our hand tattoos.

The 'Revelation In Black' Art Show had featured pieces from all of Black Veil Brides' albums: We Stitch These Wounds, Set The World On Fire, and Wretched And Divine: The Story of The Wild Ones, it also had exhibits from a few of their videos and stuff from their film, Legion of The Black. I was excited for the BVB Army to see my pieces that I provided for the show. I wore a skull and rose corset and black tights, I wore the black diamond cross necklace that Andy gave me for my 25th birthday and I had my hair done in a pixie style like Alice Cullen from Twilight, I had a black cross double finger ring, a black wristband with studs. I had black eyeshadow done cat-style and dark red lipstick. I also took one of Andy's jean vests to wear and I wore black booties. When Andy saw me, his jaw dropped and I chuckled softly. Andy pulled me to him and he kissed me on the cheek.

"You're so beautiful." Andy murmured and I smiled, wrapping my arms around his neck.

"Thank you, Light." I whispered and kissed him gently for a few moments before we took off for the House of Blues, which is a nightclub in LA, when we arrived, Ashley, CC, Jake and Jinxx were already waiting for us. I gave them all hugs when I arrived and I gave Ashley and CC pecks on the cheek. Andy then gave me a tour of the whole exhibit and I was amazed with all the art pieces and all the pieces from all of Black Veil Brides' albums. I then saw my pieces on the wall beside Andy's and I smiled. I couldn't wait for the BVB Army to see our work and to hang out with us. I thought. During the party, I began to notice that Andy wasn't around and that frightened me. I had no idea where he was. I began to panic and I pulled Ashley and CC aside.

"Andy's gone," I said.

Both Ashley and CC's eyes widened and they looked at me in complete disbelief. I had no idea where Andy was or where he went. Then it dawned on me. Blaze. Blaze. Blaze must've kidnapped him while he was outside or something! I thought.

"Where did he go?" CC asked.

"I think Blaze took him," I replied. "While I wasn't looking."

"Shit. What do we do?" Ashley said. I shook my head and I began to break down. I had to find Blaze and get Andy back. Blaze really did it now. He had me cornered, just like he knew he wanted me to be in before he could get me. CC hugged me and I just cried. I just hoped to God that Blaze didn't kill Andy already. I silently prayed to the Wiccan Gods to keep him safe and protected and recounted a protection spell under my breath. I had to find Andy and get him back. I had to. I need my Light.

"We'll find him, Lace." CC told me. "We'll find him."

I nodded and Ashley patted my shoulder and he gave me a side hug before going to tell Jake and Jinxx. I hope that Andy is okay, Please don't take him away. Please. I prayed sliently. Please.
