Fallyn's POV

~~~

My body feels so warm right now, like sleeping with a heated blanket and I feel happy, the happiest I've been since the morning before I walked into Kat's room and found her, gone.

I snuggled up to my large pillow, then the pillow moved.
Not expecting anything but me to be in bed I jumped back in surprise.
The bed beneath me disappeared for a moment before I was pulled onto it once more.

"I thought you might be awake." My eyes opened and I looked at Frank who was looking sleepy with his arm around my waist. My face went bright red as I realized I'd been using Frank Iero as my human pillow, it didn't help when he gave me a grin and my heart turned over.

I'd had my head on his chest, along with my arm and I felt like I'd overstepped so many boundaries. Did I sleep like this the whole time?

"I'm so, so sorry." I said without moving away, not a single part of me wanted to move an inch.

"It's fine, you make an excellent hot water bottle, remember to put that on your résumé." I giggled, any panic I'd felt before was now gone with his goofy smile.
Despite me having a whole queen size bed to sleep in I'd somehow managed to end up on his side with my arms around him.

Please tell me I didn't do anything else stupid in my sleep.

"What's the time?" I glanced at the clock on the nightstand and squinted to read the time, the room was too bright.

10:23

I've been asleep for a while, a long while. Gerard's probably woken up and knocked on my door by now. For some reason I felt embarrassed at the thought of having any member of the band walk in to see Frank and I in the same bed, even if we weren't doing anything.

Before I moved my head and arm away from his chest he hugged me to him and my brain started giggling like an idiot while my heart raced.
Peanut chirped at the bottom of the bed and I grinned at her cute little face while I got out of the bed.

"Do you wanna see if the guys are awake?" I adjusted my pyjama top and picked up Peanut.

"Sure, but first I have to put on some day clothes and brush my hair."

At the end of the day I'm a girl and I act like one when I'm around a cute guy who made me forget every word I'd ever learnt.

"You're hanging out with guys who avoid showers and rarely brush their hair, it doesn't matter what you're wearing."

I thought for a moment before shrugging and agreeing. We went into Gee's room via the hallway and within three knocks he answered the door and smiled at me.
My stomach rumbled and I immediately remembered I didn't have dinner last night because I'd ended up having a supernatural motivated spazz out and stayed in Franks room.

Peanut jumped out of my arms and trotted into the room as if she owned the place.
I could see Ray, Bob and Mikey standing in the background and talking happily, they also appeared to be dressed in day clothes and groomed, unlike me.

Gerard looked happier than usual while he apologized for not getting back earlier and I told him it was no problem. A part of me was kinda glad he didn't get back earlier, otherwise I wouldn't have woken up in a bed I preferred over mine.

"We were thinking of going to a diner or something for breakfast, you wanna come with us?" I nodded and grinned, food sounds like a great idea right now, I miss food very much.

"Gimme ten minutes to get changed." I went back to my room and brushed my hair quickly with one hand while brushing my teeth with the other.

With myself appropriately clothed, cleaned and in a good mood I went back to Gerard's hotel room and stood in the open doorway.
Frank seemed rather cranky compared to the others despite him being the most overtly happy member of the band. It was rare to see him not making a joke.

"I'm presentable to the human species." I said while adjusting my Panic! At The Disco band shirt.
My hair still refused to look good in any sense of the word and stuck up in random places even though its length should weigh it down.

"Cool, I'm so hungry I could eat someone." Frank joked and the rest of the guys laughed while a smile cracked across his face at last.

I'd asked Frank not to tell the band about what happened last night, I didn't want Gee to go to the effort of getting a new hotel and I wanted him to know I'd spend the night in Franks room even less.
We had a long while before the band had to start getting ready for tonight's concert which I was super excited for even though I'd been to them play last night.

On our way to the diner I threatened Gerard so he'd never try making me come onto the stage again because it was horrible. He swore on his life, so I was less worried about being sung Happy Birthday at the end of a My Chem concert, which was good.

We walked through the beautiful, snow filled city streets and I smiled at just about everything, except for the people, they freaked me out.
It took us about an hour to find a place to eat because none of them had any idea where we were and they behaved like guys and refused to ask for directions.

By the time we found the place, ate and left it was nearly one in the afternoon, time flies when you're having fun. The band and I spent most of the afternoon exploring the uncharted city, going into shops none of us would normally visit and eating foreign food from unheard of supermarkets.

Every now and then a fan of My Chem would stop the band and ask for a photo or a autograph.
Except for that I'd almost forget I was hanging out with a famous, influential band. As far as I was concerned they were guys who made dirty jokes, threw snow at each other and were really bad at finding their way around a city.

By the time that, well, time occurred to anyone it was almost six, I have no idea how that much time went by so quickly but somehow it was done.
Then yet another hour was spent trying to find our way back to the hotel, Frank and I were of no use to anyone and we'd start laughing whenever we accidentally went around a block.

"Fuck this, I'm calling a taxi or we'll never find our way back." I was still laughing at the bewildered look on the bands faces.

I'm about as useful when it comes to navigation as they are, but I'm not trying to find my way around. Frank and I sat on a wall while Gee talked quickly into his cell with an annoyed look on his face.

"I'm never going on The Amazing Race with you guys, I'll be fucked if I do." I giggled, what Frank said couldn't be truer if he tried.
He'd been suddenly really nice to me after last night, he'd seemed detached but I was happy he wanted to talk to me.

"You'd be the person who got lost in the airport and had to ask everyone for directions." I said to Frank, even though I'd be that person as well, I'm horrible at finding my way around places most of the time.

"And you would be the person who was polite to all the other teams and would come in last place because of that."

I smiled, even though I'd been a real bitch to Frank and the band while I was on the bridge I wasn't normally a mean person. Ray, Mikey and Bob looked in a good mood considering their usually glum expression, I wonder what they did last night?
Gerard looked happy as well, except for Frank he was probably the silliest, member of the band but he hasn't been acting like it two days earlier.

I want whatever happy pills they're having.
I'd also like a hotel room that wasn't creepy, possessed and plain intimidating.

It confused me last night, Frank checked out my room and I came with him. When I ran out the bath had been full to the brim, with the water being moved by some unseen force.
There had also been no electricity powered lights and I needed candles to light the room.

Is all he had to do was flick the switch, even thought the power to the lights was supposedly disconnected. When we get back to the hotel I should ask the reception desk what the fuck was going on, because that room is screwed up.

"Isn't the snow beautiful?" I accidentally said out loud, I'd been looking at it while thinking and without a filter between my mouth and my brain the words did whatever they wanted.

"It's pretty but I can think of things that are more beautiful." Frank gave me a grin and I stared intensely at the snow for a moment.
Was he talking to me just then?

Ray, Mikey and Gee were giving him a look I couldn't understand but Frank seemed to know whatever it is the look meant. Guys had always been strange creatures as far as I was concerned.

They thought we were the complex ones when in reality they are significantly more confusing.
They would always like really strange or stupid stuff, they were cryptic twenty four seven and would either creep you out with their overzealous flirting or make you doubt your femininity by saying nothing and treating you like one of the guys.

Even though Frank Iero was the rhythm guitarist of My Chemical Romance, a celebrity and ridiculously good looking, he was still one of the guys who confused the fuck out of me.
So for all I know he could have been looking at something behind me while talking or was thinking of someone or something else.

I took a sip from a can of carbonated fruit juice and tried to think of a response that couldn't be taken the wrong way.

"Uh..." I was interrupted by the taxi van pulling up to the curb.

We had no other choice but to get a van every time, there were six of us and not enough room in a regular taxi.
We piled into the van and I was lucky enough to avoid having to respond to what Frank said earlier.

The van stopped outside the hotel and we headed inside, Frank, Ray and Mikey had to grab their guitars and the whole group (including me) had to get changed for the concert.
Especially the band, because people would notice when My Chem came on stage wearing hoodies during their Revenge tour that was well known for red and black clothing and makeup.

Hesitantly I went into my room so I could put on normalish, clothes which were reasonable to wear to a concert.
Normally I'd take twenty or so minutes to get dressed, arrange my hair and put on shoes but with this room I managed to do it within ten minutes.
Like yesterday I went to the van waiting out the front with Frank who skipped along the hall with a bright smile on his face.

We got to the concert hall much earlier tonight so the band had plenty of time to laze around and do a soundcheck. Which meant more time for their very entertaining conversation they'd have while waiting for the doors to open and their cue to go on.

The most hilarious bickerfest of the night was between Gee and Frank, it was over who took who's eyeliner and I watched it trying not to laugh.
Everyone ended up laughing though when we all realized they were actually being serious and not joking.

It turned out Gerard had left his in his coat pocket and Frank's had fallen onto the floor, so watching them apologize was funny.
They were all overly excited by the time the doors opened and it was their cue to go on, which meant there'd been a ton of energy going around the place.

That also meant Frank was a danger to anyone and everyone once they went on stage, it didn't matter if it was Ray, Bob or a microphone.
But it didn't matter how violent or outrageous Frank got the show remained awesome and I'd never choose anything else over this.

When it was over and they'd finished two encores they came off stage covered in sweat and Gerard had what I hoped was fake blood on him considering how Frank hit him with his guitar earlier.

"That was a good crowd." Mikey said putting his guitar into its case and sitting on the floor next to it.
I'm not sure what classified as a good crowd but tonight's people were really into it.
How anyone could not like this band is something I'll never be able to understand, they were fucking awesome and I got to hang out with them every day.

"They didn't seem to mind when you kissed Frank." I laughed a bit.

During Our Lady of Sorrows there was a bit of a Ferard moment when Gee kissed Frank and the whole crowd went wild.
If only they realized Frank and Gerard acted nothing like that, except for some occasional inappropriate jokes that freaked me out.

"What can I say, he's a great kisser and its hard to keep my hands off him." Gerard said with a face that was so serious looking you could almost believe him, this was an example of their humor that completely scared me.

"Aww, you're so sweet." Gerard sat on Frank and immediately got pushed onto the floor.

"You smell bad, get off me." They did stuff so rough sometimes I thought they were lucky they didn't hurt themselves or each other. I'd never get onstage with Frank, I'd end up with a concussion, broken bones or something equally painful.
We hung around backstage for a while before the band went out to sign some autographs for any fans still hanging around.

There weren't many people hanging around the front maybe twenty or so.
Once the fans had pictures, signatures, hugs and a large variety of stuff that left smiles on their faces we made our way back to the hotel. We started walking back to the hotel.

They seemed to enjoy walking for some reason, I didn't understand why, there was so much snow, it was beautiful but cold and wet. Maybe they'd been cooped up on the bus for too long and needed to stretch their legs.

Frank and I hung at the back of the group, chatting and smoking, I have to say Gerard wasn't very happy when he saw Frank give me a cigarette, in plain terms, he was pissed.

I'd talked him down through my explanation of how I'm living life on a day to day basis, which I've already told them. It seemed to me that the group had forgotten my plans for suicide, I almost had as well but it lingered at the back of my mind.
I hadn't decided not to do it or to do it, I'd settled with the idea of delaying it for now, the guys had somehow made me teeter on the edge of rethinking everything.

"I didn't know you smoked." I said to Bob as he got a cigarette from Frank and lit it up.

"It's not an all the time thing, it's only occasional." He mumbled to me before walking off to talk to Ray. Bob is a good guy, he's quiet and somewhat socially awkward, especially when Frank's screwing with him but he's still a good guy.

The ember on the end of the cigarette burned bright as I studied it for no particular reason.
When finished I stubbed it out on a bin and threw it in the rubbish.
I wonder why Katelyn didn't come to the concert tonight, did she have some kind of angel schedule she worked on?

Maybe there was an allotted amount of time she could spend out of heaven.
The streets are very empty during the night, I wonder why? It's probably because of the cold, snowy, winter.

When I rubbed my face at one point during the walk I realized just how cold I must be, my face is freezing right now. Frank gave a smile as he noticed my crappy attempt at warming my face up, which was pulling the front of my hoodie up 'til it covered half my nose.

He put an arm around my shoulder and I felt my cheeks up to the point of turning bright red and I lent my head on his shoulder while we walked, Frank was likely to have meant this as a way of keeping me warm but I liked to imagine it meant something else.

We walked into the hotel and got up to the top floor, Gerard suggested we reheat last nights pizza and everyone agreed, it would be a waste to throw it out.
Gee heated up the pizza in his room while I went back to 333 to put on my pajamas because the only way to eat reheated pizzas is in your pj's.

When I'd finished, it was dinner time, the whole band stuffed their face and between us we ate four large pizzas.
Frank and I ate a vegetarian one and luckily Gerard remembered that I'd mentioned my veganism and got the pizza made with vegan cheese, I don't even think Frank noticed any differences about it.

Peanut was happy to see me when we got back and the whole time I was eating she sat on my lap and would eat anything I gave to her. Something about me felt like I was doing the wrong thing keeping her, she was a wild animal and she should be out in nature.
She was a baby still but once she was an adult she'd want to go into the nature and have baby's of her own.

Once dinner was over I said goodnight to the guys and headed back to my creepy room.
The lights refused to work for me no matter how many times I tried, how Frank was able to turn them on so easily baffled me. With a sigh I gave up trying to turn the switch on and started lighting candles left, right and centre.

I didn't want to sleep in my room but I didn't have the guts to ask Frank if I could stay in his room another night. I needed to balls up and stop being afraid of what's probably created by my over active imagination.
There was no full bath or glowing ball of light in the elevator and my brain needed to know that.

While in the bathroom and taking regular suspicious glances at the bath I brushed my teeth and silently dared it to do something.
Nothing magical happened, no floating sheets, no moving vases, then I remembered it happened after I'd fallen asleep and woke up.

That tripled my fear of going to sleep, anything going on I wasn't aware of while I was unconscious was not something I wanted happening to me.
I moved about my dimly lit room while listening to the music list that played from my iPhone through the clock/docking station.

'But does anyone notice? But does anyone care? And if I had the guts, to put this to your head.'

Someone knocked on the door and I cautiously went over to it, worried it might be a repeat of what happened last night with the blacked out peephole and no one standing at the door.

"Hey, Fallyn. What's up with the lighting? Are you getting ready for a date?" Frank started talking at a rapid pace the second I opened the door to see him leaning against the doorframe in a loose shirt and boxers.

"No I haven't got a date, it's because the lights won't work, I tried turning them on about twenty times. Do you want to talk or something?" He stopped leaning on the doorframe and stood up straight.

"I was thinking, uh." His face was gong red and he started trying to talk but stumbled over his words, "Um, it's about your room. I was thinking since what happened last night with the orb and the bath, I was wondering if you wanted to stay in my room again. I'd feel like a bad person if I made you sleep in a room that scares you."

It was my turn to go red, he'd brought up the exact subject I hadn't been able to mention to him.
Plus the thought of waking up this morning while using him as a human pillow made me feel a bit embarrassed.

"I wouldn't be intruding would I?" I was acting like a calm civilized person on the outside but I was babbling like a psycho in my head.

"Na, it's not a problem, if anything I'd kinda miss my hot water bottle." My already crimson face got even brighter and I internally grinned and giggled.

"Okay, uh, let me grab my iPhone." I grabbed said object from my nightstand and followed him into the hallway that had dimmed as the night went on.

I would have brought Peanut with me but she'd fallen asleep in Gee's room and I decided to let her sleep in there. She liked him as much as she liked me so I wasn't worried about her waking up and spazzing out. It was a bit weird staying the night in Franks room, I was sharing the bed with a guy I was attracted to but only because I was terrified of sleeping in my room.

I'd also only known him for five days and I'd woken up with my head on his chest with the possibility of waking up in the same situation in the morning.
After a couple of minutes of awkwardness I sat on the bed with my iPhone in hand and scrolled through the various photos that had been taken during my time with the band.

There were some pictures from the concert, the bus and from earlier on today while we were mucking around in the city. Frank had gotten hold of my cell so there were about twenty pics of him pulling faces and pictures of various stuff that had nothing to do with anything.

I smiled a little as I looked at a certain set of pics. Well that's attractive.

My eyelids began to get heavy the harder I tried to stay awake, going to the concert had really drained me. Frank was sitting on the bench drinking a mixer and he gave me a smile when he noticed I was watching him.
I gave a small smile back and put my head on the soft pillow, within seconds I was fast asleep and without a care in the world.

~~~

The door creaked open, so slowly that it increased the fear that was already flowing through my veins.

I can't see anything else, only the door, everything is darkness and it terrified me.
As the door opened blue light spilled into the room and I saw glowing that reminded me of the orb from the elevator.

Black tendrils wrapped around the door and crawled towards me on the ground while I tried to remind myself that none of this is real.
The blue light for even brighter and it started to be hard for me to see but I was afraid to close my eyes.

I heard whispering coming from all around me, undecipherable words crawled from the walls of the dark room and shivers ran across my skin.

Why is this happening to me?
What on earth did I do wrong?

The door opened wider and I saw the glowing orb getting brighter and brighter as it made its way towards me.

Blood left a trail on the floor and the orb became more defined.
An arm, a leg, the curve of a waist.
A hand firmly gripping a sharp butchers knife.
The insane anger that shone from under a beautiful, angelic face.

Evangeline.

~~~

I gasped for air as my eyes snapped open and I tried to separate my reality from my nightmare. I could feel Franks chest under my hand, of course I'd end up using him as a pillow, surprisingly I felt instantly better when I woke up with him next to me.

He was asleep and his chest was moving up and down slowly next to me but I blushed anyways.
God that dream sucked, I swore under my breath.
I'd thought the nightmares had finally stopped so I could sleep in peace.

Why does this have to happen? It'll always be the person who is most averse to the supernatural who will be attacked by it.

My heart was still racing and I tried to slow it down by sheer will, not that it seemed to work. I wonder if what I saw was really Evangeline, the girl who murdered hotel guests and her family.

Frank moved slightly in his sleep next to me and smiled for some unknown reason while I moved away from him. It made me feel embarrassed at my behavior during my sleep, was he awake when I cuddled up to him?

That would be just my luck for something like that to happen to me, Frank would end up thinking I was a creepy fan girl or some stupid thing like that. As I tried to shift to the other side of the bed I noticed he had his arm around my waist and I stopped moving.
My heart beat hard against my chest and butterflies took over my stomach with no mercy.
Franks sleep smile became wider, is he awake right now?

He's the kind of guy who would take satisfaction in making me have an embarrassment fueled spazz out. Even if he was awake his eyes were also closed and I took it as an opportunity to act the incredibly girly way I tried to shut off from my personality.
He's so gorgeous and he's got his arm around my waist and he's names Frank Iero, never in my wildest dreams did I think this would happen.
My eyes drifted to his mouth and I couldn't help but stare for a moment.

Hey, what's that?
Something pointy stuck out from under his top lip and I frowned for a moment, what's going on with his mouth?

"Frank." Something might be wrong with his mouth and it could be urgent, I shook him slightly and he stayed very still for a moment before opening his hazel eyes and looking at me.

"Fallyn? What's the matter?" As he opened his mouth to talk to me I got a good look at the sharp object.

Is that a vampire tooth?
Why would Frank fall asleep with fake vampire teeth in?
The strange looking teeth disappeared almost immediately and I gave him an unintentional strange look.

"Uh, it doesn't matter, never mind. I had a nightmare and it screwed with my head. I'm sorry for waking you up." I put my head on a pillow and closed my eyes, there was nothing wrong with his mouth, I was just imagining things.

"It's okay, I don't mind. I'm here if you ever need me." My face went red and I hoped Frank couldn't see it in the dark room.
His arm tightened around my waist and I moved my head back to his chest, while enjoying the feeling of warmth, safety and happiness.

Remember Fallyn, I told myself, he probably thinks of you as a kid and just wants to be protective or maybe he thinks of you as a sister.
I only thought of him as Frank, gorgeous, guitar playing guy who made my heart rate increase, my cheeks go red and my stomach fill with butterflies.
With my head and hand on his chest I noticed his lack of heartbeat for the second time.

He'd said that it was probably faint but I was positive there was nothing there.
