I woke up naked wrapped around Austin. I was sore but it was good. I watched him sleep. He made little snuffling sounds as he snored. I placed my hand over his heart and felt its steady beat. He grumbled something before his eyes slowly opened.

“Morning, angel.”

“Hi.” I was suddenly shy as I buried my face in the pillow I was resting my head on.

“Aw, don’t be shy. Did you enjoy last night?”

“Yes.” I nodded and he smiled at me.

“We’ll be heading back to the UK today. I forgot the Kerrang Awards are tonight. We need to get to London and you in a dress and me in something decent.”

“Sure.” I nodded and swung myself up in the bed with the sheets around me. “I’m going to take a shower quick.”

“Okay, I’ll get dressed and packed. We’ll be home before you know it, angel.”

“Okay.”

****
He was right. Obviously. Austin managed to get us back to my home before we had to rush off to London. My mum demanded I tell her everything while dad got Austin to help him fix something that had broken whilst I was gone.

“You’re not supposed to be home for another two days!”

“I know but Austin and the band has the Kerrang Awards to get to. He thought we should stop home before we got going again.”

“Well, I’m glad you’re home even for a while. Show me.” I held my hand out and she made a squeal noise. I laughed and she hugged me tightly. “I’m so happy that you’re happy.”

“You’re hair looks amazing also!”

“Thanks. I see you’re decorating.”

“Yes, your father decided it was time for a change. I’m glad Austin is looking after you good.”

“Me too, Mum.” Austin came out of the room dad had taken him into and I laughed at his dust streaked face. Paint was splattered on his cheeks, clothes and neck.

“What’d he make you do?”

“I only asked him if he could paint our ceiling. He’s tall enough.” Dad smiled and patted Austin on the back. “Good job.”

“Thanks.” He kissed me and I wiped away a splat of paint on his cheek. “We need to go if we’re going to get to London in time, angel.”

“Oh, yeah. Can we stay here after tonight?”

“Whatever you want.”

“We’ll see you tomorrow then.” Mum and then dad hugged me then Austin. I waved them both away and we caught a taxi to the airport. We were in London by 4pm.

“We need to get you a dress.” Austin said as we walked from the airport. I hadn’t taken any of my bags because I didn’t think I’d need them. I only had my handbag with purse.

“I don’t really want to go.”

“All your favourite bands are going to be there. Aren’t you excited?”

“Well, I suppose.” I fiddled with the engagement ring on my finger and looked into Austin’s puppy brown eyes.

“Then come.” Austin took me into an alternative formal shop and as I browsed the dresses he stood beside me.

“Aren’t you wearing a suit.”

“Nope. I’m wearing jeans and a black jacket. That will be okay.”

“Okay.” I picked a dress from the rack and smiled. It was a 50’s style dress but had zombies all over.

“These shoes would look great with that.” Austin said as he picked up a pair of heels in my size. They also had zombies over them. I frowned and looked down at my legs. The dress would come above my knees. “Here.”

I looked up and Austin was holding a pair of black skull tights. I smiled gratefully at him and stepped into the dressing room. It didn’t take long to get into everything. Once I brushed my hair with the brush in my bag and applied a small amount of makeup I exited the dressing room. Austin was leaning against a clothes rack on his phone.

He’d also changed and was wearing black skinny jeans, a plain black V neck shirt, a black button up shirt over and I saw suspenders hanging around his arse. I cleared my throat and he looked up with a smile. His smile grew when he saw me.

“You look great, angel. We really need to go.” Austin rushed to me and kissed me gently before taking my hand. “Mind charging to my room, Jackson?”

“No problem, Austin. You two have a wonderful time.”

“Thanks.” Austin waved over his head and he pulled me to a motorcycle. I tugged his hand and he smirked at me. “Scared?”

“No.” I shook my head and climbed onto the bike after him. He handed me a helmet and I snapped the clips together with a pout. I was kind of scared. He chuckled as I wrapped my arms around his waist. The venue was literally a five minute ride from the shop.

He got off the bike then helped me off. He’d parked down an alleyway so no one saw us go into the venue. He kissed me before taking me through a door which led onto a fake red carpet. I stepped back but he shook his head and pulled me closer.

“Together.”

I nodded and he pulled me down the stupid little carpet. I held my head down but Austin pushed it up and pointed to a camera. We posed for a picture as I squeezed his hand. I bumped into someone as I turned around.

“You okay, lady?” I looked up and nodded.
