In the End

I awoke this morning and I shifted onto my side to see Andy was asleep and I smiled, because today was December 26th, his birthday. We had an amazing Christmas together, Andy's parents came out and I invited Bam and Rob and Kat too. I also had put the finishing touches on Andy's birthday party as well. It was happening at the lake house and I had a big guest list too. Andy was still asleep so I just moved my fingers through his hair and he smiled because he knows that my touch is something that he just loves. I smiled as I kept moving my fingers along his jawline and down his neck and I just started stroking his 'Mortician's Daughter' tattoo when he opened his eyes. The shimmery icy blue in his eyes, filled with so much love and devotion. He cupped my face in one of his hands, while his arm brought me closer to his body.

"Hey, beautiful." Andy's voice was dwelling with sleep, and I chuckled softly. I just lay my head on his collarbone and I sighed softly as he stroked my hair softly.

"Hey," I said. "Happy Birthday, Light."

He smiled and he kissed my forehead softly, and his fingers kept their soothing motion as he stroked my hair.

"Thank you, baby." Andy kissed me softly and I just melt into his being and into his kiss for a few moments, ravishing in the passion and the love that I felt for him. We pulled apart and he leaned his head on mine and closed his eyes. I smiled at him and in this moment, I couldn't help but be so thankful for having Andy alongside me for so long and to have him catch me when I feel like falling down and there wasn't a person who understood me more than Andy did.

"How did I get so lucky to have such an amazing boy alongside me?" I murmured and Andy chuckled, as his fingers moved down my jawline softly.

"I ask myself that every night when I see you laying next to me," Andy whispered, intertwining our hands. "I always believed that fate brought us together, but there's more to that. It wasn't Blaze, either. It was because I wanted to heal what was broken from him and show you a life and love that you never got to see because you were trapped in the dark for so long. I had to shine brightly for you and show you that there was Light at the end of the tunnel. And Faith, I wouldn't trade that for nothing. You're my everything."

I melted by his words and tears filled my eyes, but I blinked them away because I was just so happy in that moment. He did fix what was broken and he did show me a better life and love that I never had before.

"I love you, Moonlight." I said. Andy kissed me again, gently but a little bit deeper and we pulled apart and he kissed my temple.

"I love you too, my beautiful Faith." Andy whispered and I just kissed him on the cheek before I got up to go make him breakfast. He watched me as I went into the closet to change into my AJ Lee 'Love You Til Your Last Breath' shirt and a pair of shorts and Andy began to get up so he could follow me downstairs after getting Blayde up. He watched as I decided on what to make for him and I then came up with pumpkin spice pancakes. As I was mixing the batter and turning the griddle on, Andy came up and he wrapped his arms around me and he kissed the back of my neck, making me shiver.

"You don't have to do this for me, love." Andy said. I giggled softly.

"I insist. Plus. You're my boy and it's your birthday. Let me treat you for everything you've done for me. You deserve this." I told him as he grinned and kissed my temple as I began to flip the pancakes. I hummed the chorus of 'Make It Rain' by Ed Sheeran that I heard on Sons Of Anarchy, and I put the pancakes on Andy's Batman plate and on my Sons of Anarchy reaper plate too. I handed them over to Andy as I dusted some powdered sugar on them and Andy smiled as he dug into the pancakes. I smiled and I just dug into mine as well. After a while, Andy's hand moved across the table to take mine and I looked at him and he gave me a side smile.

"I can never take what you do for me for granted, baby." Andy kissed the back of my hand. "I love you, Faith. Thank you."

"Of course," I murmured. "And I love you too, Light."

He smiled and after breakfast, Andy and I just curled up close on the couch, and watched American Horror Story: Freak Show while Blayde was playing, even though I hated seeing the strongman because he was the same guy who killed Jax Teller on Sons of Anarchy and Andy hated him for killing Jax off and he went on a rant as to why he shouldn't be on the show and I started giggling because it was funny and it made me feel at ease.

"That fucker shouldn't even be on that show," Andy muttered. "He killed Jax Teller! Jax Teller was a badass motherfucker!"

"Babe, Charlie Hunnam's still alive." I said, laughing.

"I know Charlie's alive," Andy said. "But still. Asshole."

I laughed again and I just kissed him on the cheek because he was pouting like a little kid and it was cute. He sighed and he pulled me closer to his body and Andy kissed my nose and I just snuggled up close to him again and before I could even close my eyes, I heard my phone buzzing. I sighed, and let go of Andy to answer it.

"Hello?" I said.

"Lacey." I heard Kat's voice on the other line and a smile came across my face.

"Hey, Kat." I said, as I walked out of the room so that Andy wouldn't hear the conversation between Kat and I. "What's up?"

"I just wanted to tell you that I finished the touches on the decorations for Andy's birthday party," Kat told me. "Are you still coming to get your makeup done for the party?"

"Course. I'll swing by your house an hour before the party starts so we can get ready together." I replied.

"Great! I'll see you then!" Kat said before hanging up and I smiled because I couldn't wait for Andy to see the look and as I walked in and looked at my amazing boy laying there on the couch, waiting for me and he turned his head towards me.

"What was that all about?" Andy asked.

"Just Kat. Also, I have a surprise for you tonight." I said, as I just lay back in his arms. He grinned and he kissed my lips tenderly and he then kissed my head again.

"Well, whatever it is that you have planned, I look forward to it." Andy murmured, taking my hands in his.

"Good. Just make sure to get a masquerade mask and then come to the lake house tonight." I told him and he raised a brow in wonder and then nodded his head.

It was a masquerade party that Kat and I planned and I had my outfit set for the party and I just was so excited. We stayed like this for a while before I had to run and do some press and stuff for Going to Hell and I then headed over to Kat's house to get ready. I grabbed my bag of stuff out of the trunk and I walked up to the door and let myself in. Kat was waiting for me in her bedroom. She wore a Wednesday Addams inspired dress and a black mask with sliver sparkles. I set my bag on her bed and I gave Piaf and Poe and couple of pets as well.

"You ready?" Kat said and I nodded as grabbed her makeup and she set down her palettes and lipsticks and blush. She put on some of her High Voltage eye primer on my eyes and she opened up the palette and dipped her brush into the silver and she started doing my eyes and then she wiped the sliver off and began to put the brush in the ice blue, the same shade as Andy's wonderful, warm and beautiful eyes.

"Why silver?" Kat asked, as she was blending in the sliver and the ice blue.

"Because, Andy loves when I wear silver eyeshadow, he tells me that it brings out the shards of silver in my eyes." I told her. Kat 'aww'ed because it was sweet and she started putting on my eyeliner, she did a winged eyeliner and she did my mascara and put on my lipstick, which was called 'Vampira' and when I looked at myself in the mirror, my jaw dropped. I looked gorgeous and I knew Andy was going to be impressed with my look.

"Wow, Kat. I love it. Thank you." I said, giving her a hug.

"You're welcome." Kat replied. "I'll give you some space to change and then we'll go, okay?"

I nodded as she walked out and she closed her bedroom door. I then opened up my bag and I changed into a corset that was blue, the same blue as Andy's eyes, and a pair of leggings and high heeled boots, I wore some earrings shaped like daggers that Kat let me borrow and some mourning jewelry that was also hers too. I put my hair into a braid and I grabbed my mask. It was black, it had crystals on it and it fit over me, but covered my right eye and left my left eye open. When I walked out, Kat smiled brightly at me.

"You look gorgeous." Kat told me. "Andy's gonna be all over you, babe."

"Thanks." I replied as we took off out the door and headed in our separate cars and took off for the lake house. I was greeted by Bam, Rob, Ashley, CC, Jake, Jinxx, Alissa & Doyle, Ashley Costello, Chris Motionless, Lindsay and the boys in Cradle Of Filth, even Mark showed up too. I haven't seen Mark since WrestleMania either. He brought his wife Michelle McCool too and Chris Jericho had arrived too. I just hung out and socialized with everyone before I got the text from Andy telling me that he was gonna be here at anytime now. I had everybody hide and I then heard Andy come in. I took a deep breath as I waited for him to enter the living room, where I was and as soon as he did, everybody jumped up and surprised him.

"Holy shit! Wow." Andy said, laughing as I walked up to him and I wrapped my arms around his neck, as his slipped around me.

"Happy Birthday, Light." I told him. Andy leaned in and kissed my lips deeply and tenderly, luckily Kat's lipstick can last up to six hours, so it doesn't smudge off while we're kissing. We pulled apart.

"Thank you, Faith." Andy murmured. "This is the best thing you could've ever done for me."

"Aww. You're welcome, my Light." I whispered, pecking his lips. Andy was dressed in a leather jacket, his white button down shirt and a pair of skinny jeans and his mask, which was a plain black one and his boots. He looked me down and his jaw dropped at my beauty and I laughed because it made him look like a monkey and I leaned to close his mouth.

"You look so gorgeous, baby." Andy told me.

"Thanks. You'll never believe who inspired my makeup." I replied.

"Who?"

"You," I smiled and Andy kissed my cheek. "Kat did my makeup and she told me that you'd love it."

"I do." Andy's hand cupped my cheek and his fingers caressed my jawline as he leaned his head on mine and closed his eyes. "If you see Kat, thank her for me."

"Thank me for what?" Kat said and Andy jumped, making me giggle.

"Holy shit, you're actually here!" Andy said and Kat laughed.

"Course. Lacey came to my house so that I could do her makeup." Kat explained. Andy looked at me and then he looked back at Kat.

"I didn't even know she was wearing makeup," Andy replied. "It blends in so well."

Kat just smiled at Andy and she wrapped her arm around me.

"That's the thing with my makeup line, Andy." Kat told him. "I try to make sure it's natural for any skin tone, besides my own. Lacey wanted a 'Moonlight' look and I did that. Silver, representing your name, Light, and ice blue, the same as your eyes. And I used my Vampira lipstick to darken it and make it dramatic."

"Well, you did a wonderful job on her. She looks beautiful. Thank you, Kat." Andy smiled and I let Kat go so that Andy could hug her.

"You're welcome, Andy. Lacey was wonderful to work with." Kat let go of Andy and smiled back at him. "I'll leave you two alone now."

I nodded and Kat walked away and I just turned back to Andy and he brought me close to him and we danced along to 'Here's To Us' by Halestorm and as we danced together, I just couldn't help but fall in love with Andy all over again. This one boy has been my rock and my support as I dealt with the Blaze issues and I couldn't be more happier with such an amazing boy to share my journey with and to have someone love and care for me as much as Andy does. The warmth in Andy's ice blue stare was full of love and happiness, and he gave me a soft kiss as we danced. We pulled apart a few moments later.

"I love you so so much, Faith." Andy murmured. "This has been the best birthday ever. I can never repay you for doing this for me, honey. Thank you so much."

"I love you too, Light." I whispered. "Every year, you've made me happier and you never cease to amaze me with your amazing voice and your art and your kind soul. I love you from the bottom of my heart and you've always been there for me since the beginning and I can never thank you enough for always being there and encouraging me to keep fighting when I can't do it anymore. You've kept me sane in my darkest moments and for that, I'm grateful to have you on this journey with me."

Andy's eyes almost filled up with tears and he leaned in and kissed me deeply and gently.

"That's because you're my heart. And I'd do anything for my heart and I keep my heart close and I lay everything down for you. You're my Faith. My religion. My sense of direction. My motivation as an artist and as a person. You help me grow, Faith and you make me who I am, babe and you're such an amazing and beautiful girl, inside and out." Andy told me, as he stopped dancing with me and he just took my hands in his. I just moved so that my head lay on his chest as I melt into him and blink away tears at his words. Andy's hand rubbed my back in smooth circles and he kissed my hair. After an amazing dance, Andy and I just sat with our friends and we talked and I just lay my head on his shoulder, his arm wrapped around my waist, keeping me close to him and he'd sneak the usual kiss on the temple or on my lips and it made them all smile and coo at us and it made me giggle. Gifts were given to Andy and I just smiled as he unwrapped them all until it was Mark's turn and Mark had a huge smile on his face.

"I have a very special gift for you, Andy." Mark said and he turned away from us. "Stinger! Come here!"

Andy's eyes widened as he was standing, toe to toe with 'The Icon' Sting. Sting smiled and he extended his hand to Andy.

"I take it you're Andy then?" Sting said. "The Deadman's told me about you."

Andy was in awe, as was I and after a minute of being frozen, Andy shook hands with Sting and I mouthed a 'Thank you' to Mark and Mark nodded at me. I listened as Andy talked to Sting and he thanked Sting for being his idol and Sting thanked him for all of his support over the years. Andy couldn't believe that he was talking to Sting and I was just so happy for him.

"I-I can't believe this is happening right now." Andy replied. "I never would've thought that I would be talking to The Icon. Thank you so much, Mark."

"Of course, Andy." Mark replied, putting a hand on his shoulder. "Happy Birthday, bud."

Andy nodded as he continued talking to Sting and I watched as one of Andy's lifetime goals came true. After that, cake was shared and it was just a memorable evening and Andy kissed me softly after all of the masks were taken off, including mine.

"Thank you again, love." Andy murmured. "I can never repay you for going out of your way to do this."

"You're welcome, my Light." I pecked his lips. "Anything for you."

Andy chuckled and with that, the party wrapped up and we all headed out and I just spent the night with my boy, in his arms.
