Desperation Before I Hit The Ground 04

Andy's POV

           

            I'd managed to fall asleep and stay asleep for a good while. The sun was shining down in my face as I woke up, rubbing my eyes. I could hear Jake in the next room already up. I sighed, looking around. I really hope I don't get called back to that shoot… then again a part of me does want to be. I know it's stupid and completely hopeless but there's something about Ashley. He hates me though and unfortunately I can't do anything about that.

            "Andy you awake?" Jake called.

"Mhmm" I mumbled back.

            "Did you see the moving trucks outside?"
"Moving trucks?
            "Yeah someone just moved in downstairs"

People were always moving in and out in this apartment complex, guess it comes with the town. Most likely some blond bimbo hoping for an acting career. I pushed the covers off myself and slowly sat up.

           

            My hair was a mess and I looked like I was still in desperate need of sleep. I started the water and slipped my oversized t-shirt off. I looked at my naked body in the mirror. I wasn't toned, just sort of there. My stomach was flat but soft, my legs had no definition and my entire upper body had almost zero muscle to it. Not exactly your sex symbol.

            Sighing, I stepped into the water letting it wash over me. I washed my hair before turning off the water and getting out. I straightened it and applied my makeup. Now that I looked somewhat presentable maybe I should go see this new neighbor?

            Jake had already left to go meet Jinxx to work on some guitar riffs. That meant that I had the whole day alone. I wanted to get my mind off yesterday though; I don't want to have to think about Jazzy, the shoot or Ashley…

            Sure enough there was a moving truck unloading various pieces of furniture outside my apartment building. There was a tall guy leaning against the brick wall, smoking a cigarette. He had choppy black and red hair that fell in jagged lines down to his shoulders; he was muscular and had a few piercings and tattoos.

            I couldn't help but stare at him as he blew a perfect smoke ring into the air. He must have caught me looking at him because he chuckled before putting out the cig and walking towards me. I thought about turning around and running, I'm not good at meeting new people especially insanely hot guys. My feet didn't respond to me though so I just stood there.

            "Hello" he said in a heavy German accent.

He offered his hand for a handshake. It took me a second to realize it; I blushed shaking his hand back.

            "My name is Giovanni, and as you can tell I'm your new neighbor."
"Oh yeah, I'm uh… I'm Andy"

            He smiled, flashing a perfect set of teeth.

"Well it's very nice to meet you Andy"
            "N-Nice to meet you too" I said, trying to hid my red cheeks behind my hair.



Ashley's POV

            "Get the fuck up slut" I yelled throwing Jazzy's pants on top of his head. He moaned, rolling over almost falling off my couch.

            Somewhere in our drunken hook up we'd make it back to my place. He'd passed out on my couch naked. I have to admit it's not a bad sight to wake up to, but my hangover was making my head pound and all I really wanted was a hot cup of coffee and a bottle full of pain killers.

            Jazzy sat up, brushing his hair back out of his face. He still had his makeup on from the night before but of course it was now a bit smudged. I don't know how many times we fucked or if we'd done anything else. Jazzy blinked trying to figure out where he was.

            "You're at my house, now get the fuck up I've got places to be" I demanded again.

He held his head, obviously hung over as well. I didn't care though that was his problem which he could deal with once he got out of my house. Yeah he's a good fuck, and he's got good connections but he's a pain in the ass.

            "Fuck what did I do last night?" he groaned.

"A lot" I said with a chuckle.

            "I feel like I'm goanna puke"
"Then go to the bathroom, don't puke on my couch" he glared at me before stumbling over to the bathroom.

            I started the coffee and took a few pain killers for my splitting head. It was too early to start drinking yet. I could hear Jazzy puking in the bathroom. Just another lovely morning in the Purdy house.

            I've got to come up with some way to keep Jeff from calling that Andy kid back. I don't want to work with him. I don't even know if he's had sex before, he was just too pure, too innocent… too perfect to be tainted by me…



Andy's POV



            Giovanni had invited me out for lunch because his stuff was still in boxes and he said he wanted to get to know me better. I don't know why he would maybe he just wanted to know someone in his building, or he was just being nice. Either way I was now sitting across from him in this little sandwich shop that was within walking distance from the apartments.

            I'd ordered a grilled cheese sandwich with fries and chocolate cake. This place had a killer pound cake every time I would come here I'd get it. Giovanni on the other hand had opted for a much healthier choice; he'd gotten a grilled chicken salad with an apple.

            I hate vegetables, salads and most fruit. I know that eating like I do isn't good for me and once my metabolism levels off I'll be forced to eat healthy or I'll get fat. Giovanni smiled at me before taking another bite of his salad.

            "How's your food?"
"It's good" I said, looking down and keeping my eyes on my plate.
