Chapter 1

'andy someone's on the phone for you!' Ronnie's mom yelled. 'im commin!' And i ran downstairs. Not knowing who was on the other line. 'hello?' 'are you andrew biersack?' 'eh, yes i am, sir.' i answered with a little shock in my voice. 'i'm dr. cantwell, im from the hospital in brooklyn' 'eh okay...' i answered again. 'im calling, because i have bad news for you,' 'okay, tell me.' i mumbled. 'your parents died in the plane crash last night.... we're sorry about your loss' tears filled my eyes, tears of anger, sadness, and the most important,i was powerless. I did not want to believe it. it couldn't be true. My mom and dad were just in the hotel, and they had the wrong people. 'andrew, are you still there?' The doctor asked. The phone fell down to the ground. With me next to it. i buried my face in my hands and made my long black hair fall in front of my face so no one could see me crying my eyes out. 'andy, are you okay?' Ronnie's mom asked while she kneeled next to me. 'their dead... mommy and daddy, are gone' i stuttered. 'baby, thats terrible...' she said with a little shock in her voice, trying to hold back her own tears' slightly i could recognise the footsteps on the stairs, it was ronnie, who came down to check what happened. He must feel confused about seeing his best friend and his mom cry, for a for him unknown reason.

'mom, andy, whats going on...?' He asked a little bit scared. I stood up and wrapped my arms around him, burying my face in his neck. 'their dead, ron, their dead' 'who are dead.... tell me andy....' 'my mom and dad...' i tried to speak out properly. It failed, tears were running down my cheeks, all i wanted was my parents back, the two people who ment so much to me, who used to support me, manage me, all that was gone. And all i wanted for that moment, was being with them, i ran outside off to the train station, ronnie, who already called my girlfriend to tell what happened, came after me, 'andy wait!' He screamed panicked. I kept running, away from reality, away from the pain. A second voice screamed my name. 'andy, dont jump! Stay with us!' I realized it was juliet, i stopped the running and collapsed on the ground. Again i started crying, and in no-time ronnie and juliet held me in their arms to comfort me. They helped me up and we walked home. Juliet and ronnie both didnt let go of my hand wich they were holding. The walk was quiet, no one knew what to say. We arrived back at ronnie's house, where his mom and juliet's brother took place on the couch. Tommy stood up directly when he saw us. 'andy, im so sorry,,,' tears were still running over my cheeks, along with the black make-up i used to wear. While we were standing there, a smile came onto my face, 'you know, this may be a sad time, but i can make it through, together with you guys.' we smiled and hugged for like 5 minutes. Tommy went home, and ronnie's mom went on with wat she was doing.

Ronnie, juliet and i walked off to ron's room. Juliet wrapped her arms around my waist and i couldn't feel more lucky now she was by my side. I sniffed her hair, which was smelling like strawberry smoothies. 'together we can make it through andy, trust me' 'i know babe, we can, and were gonna' while saying that, i knew i was lying, i couldn't go through this. I just was not able to.
That night, i went home. For hours i sat on my parents bed. Crying, watching the pictures, included a baby picture, of my mom holding a baby andy. 'i miss you so much mom, why did you leave me, alone in this big world, i cant do it all on my own yet.' 'your not alone andy,' a voice whispered. It was jake, my guitarist. I looked up and tried to look him in the eyes. He smiled slightly and sat down next to me. His arm around my shoulders and his head next to mine.
'were gonna help you andy, all four of us are there, even sandra called to ask if it was true, andy, your not alone in this, were all in this, all for one and one for all remember?' I smiled and hugged him.
