Chapter 61[/u][/b]
‘I don’t like having to have to leave you in a hospital,’ Gerard said softly, standing beside your bed. You cupped his cheek in your hand, ‘it’s alright. I’ll be fine Gerbear. It’s only going to be for a couple more days.’ ‘I know but I still don’t want to leave you. You know, after sleeping in the same bed with you for 2 weeks and then having to stay in a bed all by myself, it was weird,’ he confessed. ‘Same here,’ you smiled. ‘Really?’ ‘Yeah,’ you told him. He kissed you on the forehead, which was bandaged up anyways because apparently your head hit the steering wheel and you split your head open, leaving you with 25 stitches. ‘I’ll be back later this afternoon to see you,’ he said. ‘Alright, I’ll be here, waiting,’ you said softly. ‘I hope so. I mean, I wouldn’t want to come back and find you flirting with a guy who is in for like some off the wall operation,’ he laughed. ‘Don’t worry I don’t think I’ll be leaving you for someone here,’ you assured him. He smiled and kissed you on the lips one last time before he crutched his way to the lobby where his Mom was signing him out.
‘Well it appears you two made it back to your bodies, safe and sound,’ you heard a female voice say cheerfully. You looked over and saw Chelsea, but she was in normal clothes. T-shirt, jeans, chucks, she looked like a normal person, not a guardian angel. You wondered where she kept her wings, you don’t remember ever seeing them when you were in Limbo. Then again maybe guardian angels don’t have wings? You shook the thought from your mind. ‘Oh yeah, Gerard almost didn’t make it though, he didn’t wake up right away like you said we would,’ you said a little bit sourly. ‘I’m sorry, but he made it, that’s what counts,’ she assured you. ‘Yeah,’ you said softly, ‘that’s what counts.’ ‘So did he tell you,’ she asked. ‘What,’ you asked before realizing what she meant, ‘oh yeah he did.’ ‘Good,’ she nodded. ‘Question for you, since you’re a, you know, can you like see the future,’ you asked kinda curiously. ‘Yes, and I can only tell you this. Stay with Gerard and you will be a very happy woman when you get older, I assure you that,’ she said. ‘So, what? We get married and shit,’ you asked. She just kept a smile across her face, ‘you’ll see.’ You were actually praying inside that what she meant was a yes. You could see yourself with Gerard forever, but did he want to spend the rest of his life with you? He loves you, you weren’t sure if marriage has even crossed his mind yet but it might have at one point. After all you’ve been together for 2 years coming up in June, surely he’s thought about his future somewhat. Little did he know what kind of future he was in store for.
Chelsea left you soon after and allowed you to sleep. Later on in the day before Gerard arrive, everyone, including Mikey and Vanessa, came back to visit and see how you were doing. They were only allowed 2 in at a time, so they came in as couples. Except Jesse, they let him come in with Sara and Quinn since he is family. Your Aunt and Uncle even made a trip down to visit you, which made you happy. They were the closest blood related family you really had that you were somewhat close to when growing up. Gerard didn’t leave your side until the night shift nurse kicked him out. He wanted to hide under your bed so she wouldn’t notice him but he was too big and you could see under the bed so his attempt in hiding didn’t do him much good. She caught him and escorted him out, you assumed he had a ride that picked him up. You fell asleep for the night.
Never in your life were you expecting something like this to happen. Getting in a car accident. Now you knew how your Mom and Jeff felt, but you were worse, you actually felt all the pain they didn’t have to suffer through. You remember being told that they didn’t feel any pain and that they died instantly. You searched around your neck for the necklace you had. You combined the necklace with four charms. The rose charm that Gerard had given you, Jeff’s class ring, your Mom’s wedding ring and the guitar pic your Dad had given you when you were little. Each one was special to you and you knew you’d be devastated if you lost any of them. Each was from a person you loved with your whole heart. In the back of your mind, Corpseweb’s offer still lingered. You still haven’t used your gift from him to see each of your family members. You knew what day you wanted them to be there and hearing what Chelsea said made you even more definite that , that was the day you wanted them to come back. You weren’t sure how or if it would be possible to have them all together at the same time, but you wanted them there on that specific day and time.

Chapter 62 [/u][/b]
‘The doctor said you can go home tonight, if you feel that you’re ready Bree,’ Gerard said. You let out a big sigh of happiness. ‘Finally I can get out of here,’ you said. Gerard cracked a smile, ‘yeah. But there’s some bad news, well I’m not sure if it’s bad news really, but it’s news,’ he said. You tilted your head, ‘what is it?’ ‘Mom is making us come back home this term for school. I think she’s afraid something more serious will happen if we’re all the way in New York,’ he told me. ‘But aren’t your grandparents staying at your house,’ you asked. ‘Yeah,’ he shrugged, ‘but she said we can either take our old rooms back and they can stay in the basement, or we can go in the basement and get bunk beds.’ ‘Gerard if you haven’t noticed, I really don’t care where I sleep as long as it’s in my own bed and after living with you and sharing the same bed for what? 7 months, I think the basement would be a bit better. Did your Mom say how Shadow was doing, she tends to get depressed when I’m not around, or so Mikey has told me,’ you asked. ‘Shadow had kittens,’ he said. ‘How the fuck did she have kittens,’ you asked with your jaw ajar. ‘Well, when two kittens love each other, they -,’ you cut him off. ‘I know how it works but where did she find the partner to have kittens,’ you asked. ‘Umm, well Mikey bought a cat, a guy cat and apparently they well, got frisky,’ Gerard said. ‘Mikey, got a cat? How come he never mentioned it before,’ you pondered. ‘Oh well, it’s not important,’ you thought. You were actually kinda happy now to go home and see the little kittens that were waiting for you.
‘So we’re gonna stay in the basement then,’ Gerard asked. You shook your head, snapping yourself out of your thoughts. ‘Oh um yeah, I claim top bunk though,’ you declared. ‘Bree, how are you going to get up there, you have a sprained ankle and something is fucked up with your neck, do you honestly think you’d be able to get on the top bunk,’ Gerard pointed out the facts. ‘Damn you for pointing out reality. I was trying to forget all the shit that’s wrong with me, thanks Gerard, for reminding me,’ you sneered. ‘Sorry, but it’s true,’ he said innocently. ‘Well, are you two ready,’ a voice said from the door. It was Mrs. Way. ‘Um I kinda need a change of clothes,’ you pointed out, ‘but other than that, yeah we’re ready.’ Mrs. Way handed you a bag of your clothes, mainly a pair of pajama pants which you figured were Gerard’s because they were black and hand skeleton’s as the pattern. A white tank top and a zip up black hoodie. And of course the undergarments and some slip on sandals. ‘Um, Gerard, I’m going to need some help,’ you said. Gerard’s eyes lit up, ‘really?’ ‘Um, yeah. But I’ll tell you when to come in,’ you said and poked him in the chest. ‘Alright,’ he helped you out of bed and across the hall to the bathroom. He patiently waited outside the bathroom door as you attempted to change your bra and underwear, which somehow you managed to do without feeling too much pain. You gave a couple taps on the door, allowing Gerard to come in and help. You swear you thought his eyes were going to fall out of their sockets when he walked in, seeing you in just your purple lacy bra and matching boy shorts underwear. ‘Close your mouth and put your eyes back in, you need to help me get my pants and shirt on,’ you said, trying to snap him back to.
He shook his head and looked at your face. You already felt insecure as it was, standing in just your bra and underwear and knowing that you were cut and bruised severely on pretty much every part of your body, most of which was bandaged up anyways. You put your arm out for him to come over, which he did. You placed your arm on his shoulder to help you with your balance to put your pajama pants on. After almost falling over a couple of times and Gerard catching you, you successfully got them on. You threw your shirt at Gerard and lifted your arms up so he could put it on you. You felt his hands linger when they passed your breasts, but you shot him a raised eyebrow and displeased look and he continued to pull down your shirt. You slipped on the sandals and headed out of the bathroom, Gerard trailing behind you. A nurse came by and looked at you two suspiciously, she must have noticed Gerard coming out of the women’s bathroom. Yeah that did look not only strange but very wrong. What did she think, that you two were having sex in there or something? If she hadn’t noticed you had a brace around your neck, a cast on your arm and a splint on your ankle, how much physical action did she honestly think you could handle, let alone the amount of energy required during sex? Exactly, you had barely enough energy to keep yourself awake any more from the medication they had been giving you. It was a medication that would help you sleep so your body could heal and relax on it’s own. Plus a large dose of pain killers every four hours so that made you very spacey too.
Gerard helped you to the car and let you lay down in the back seat. Mrs. Way drove the long six hour drive back home to Belleville. Home. Though you still had all your stuff back at the apartment in New York, did anyone take care of that yet? Oh shit, Donna’s gonna find out that you and Gerard were actually staying together. Great, just as you figured from the start she would find out and the situation was only going to get worse than it already was. Plus you knew she had a sort of grudge against you for causing the car accident, putting you and her oldest son in the hospital, extremely injured. She never really said much to you, other than the fact that she was happy to see you both alive. Mr. Way was actually more talkative than her, which was weird, because usually it was always the other way around. You fell asleep after about an hour driving. You were actually quite comfortable because Gerard brought along a pillow and blanket for you for the ride home. It was difficult to get comfortable at first considering you couldn’t move your neck but eventually you found a good position to put yourself in and managed to sleep.
You slept all the way back to Belleville because, when you woke up you found yourself in the basement, laying down in the bottom bunk of a set of bunk beds. You glanced over at the clock and it was actually the middle of the night. You could hear it raining. Before you loved the rain, but now you had nothing but hatred towards it. After the car accident you decided your favorite days were the ones that were overcast. You realized that all the times you have gotten caught in the rain have ended up badly. The night you were scared half to death when Corpseweb showed himself physically to you because the power went out, which was actually his doing, when you severely sprained your ankle the first time, and now the car accident. But then there were the good times, getting kissed in the rain for the first time, splashing around in the puddles with Gerard, dancing in the rain. You shook the thoughts from your head, you heard the person moving above you, tossing and turning in their bunk. You figured it was Gerard, you recall him saying he wasn’t used to not having you in the same bed as him. You were like each others teddy bears, safety blankets, the ones you made each other felt safe when in each others arms. You felt rather lonely on the bottom bunk too, it was weird turning over and not seeing his face but a blank wall starring at you. You sighed and did your best to fall back asleep. Praying this was all just one big nightmare and when you’d wake up you would be back in your apartment in New York with Gerard whining for you to get up for class, racing around for who gets the bathroom first and hanging out with your friends, happy again.

Chapter 63[/u][/b]
You were woken up by someone falling down the stairs. You slowly opened your eyes and saw a blurry Mikey sitting at the foot of the stair rubbing his head. ‘You alright,’ you asked, clearly sounding as tired as you were. ‘I think so,’ he said and got up, fixing his shirt in the process. Next you saw was Gerard standing behind Mikey. He gave him a hard whack in the back of the head. ‘OW! What the fuck Gerard,’ Mikey yelled. ‘Did you fucking wake her up,’ Gerard glared at him. ‘I donno. Did I wake you up Bree,’ he asked. You shook your head. ‘See! I didn’t wake her up,’ Mikey snapped at Gerard. ‘Whatever go upstairs, Vanessa is waiting for you, go to school,’ Gerard pointed up the stairs. ‘Hold on, I came down here to get a hoodie, then I’ll be on my fucking merry way,’ he said and walked into the laundry room, grabbing his zip up hoodie and went upstairs. He stuck his tongue out at Gerard before he ran up the stairs to meet Vanessa to go to school. Gerard sat down next to you, you didn’t realize it when he came down here, but he had a kitten in his hand. ‘It’s one of Shadow’s kittens, we’ve been waiting for you to name him,’ Gerard handed you the little white with black paws and ears cat, the complete opposite of Shadow. But he still had her bright blue eyes. ‘Ghost,’ was the first name that came to your mind.
Your attention was taken away from Ghost and to the doorbell ringing. ‘I’ll go get that,’ Gerard said and went upstairs to answer the door. Shadow scurried her way down the steps and hopped up onto your bed, laying down next to Ghost. You stroked the back of your hand on top of her head and all the way down to her tail. She lightly purred while Ghost started to play with her tail as she’d move it around. Gerard came back down the stairs with someone behind him. That someone being Chelsea. ‘Hey Bree,’ she smiled and gave a short wave. You gave a half smile, ‘hey.’ ‘How are you feeling?’ ‘Alright for the most part. Bruises are gone and moving around doesn’t hurt so much,’ you explained. Granted your neck and ankle were still in braces and your deep cuts were still bandaged up. Gerard still had some stitches in his forehead and tiny cuts along his arms from the shattered glass. ‘That’s good to hear,’ she said. You nodded. ‘So you two ladies want me to leave or would you like to watch a movie or something,’ Gerard offered. You looked at Chelsea and shrugged your shoulder, ‘a movie sounds good.’ ‘Yeah, I don’t have a set time on when I need to be back well, you know where,’ she nodded. ‘Alright, as long as it isn’t a chick movie,’ Gerard said. You and Chelsea both laughed, ‘boys.’ ’We’ll let you pick out the movie then,’ you smirked. ‘Nightmare Before Christmas it is,’ Gerard announced. Chelsea and Gerard turned toward the staircase. ‘Uh guys, I can’t exactly walk up the stairs,’ you said from your bed. Gerard turned back around and picked you up, bridal style and upstairs, Chelsea following right behind.
Gerard plopped you down on the couch while him and Chelsea went into the kitchen to make popcorn. You grabbed the remote and flipped through the channels. The phone rang and you reached over to pick it up. ‘Hello?’ ‘Hey Bree! It’s Jill, how are you feeling,’ Jill asked in a cheerful voice. Geez what it up with everyone being so cheerful lately. ‘Alright, so what’s up,’ you asked. ‘Well, me and Kat were wondering if you were up for coming over and having a girls night,’ she asked. ‘I donno babe, I still have to keep the neck and ankle braces on for another two weeks, and it’s pretty hard to do anything other than sit while I have them,’ you explained to her. ‘Oh okay, well maybe once you are feeling better just the girls can get together and have like a sleep over or something,’ she mentioned. ‘Yeah, sure,’ you said. ‘Well, I’ll let you go, feel better,’ she sympathized. ‘Thanks, well talk to ya later,’ you said and you two hung up.
Gerard and Chelsea came back out to the family room with two bowls of popcorn and three cans of pop. Gerard sat down next to you and Chelsea at the other end of the couch. Pressing the ‘play’ button the movie started. After the first twenty minutes of the movie all of you lost interest and started talking. Mainly it was Gerard asking a thousand questions to Chelsea and what it was like to be a Guardian Angel and stuff along the lines of that. Chelsea answered all of his questions, until he finally ran out of questions. You had one question for her, but you weren’t sure if it was even possible to even get it to happen. To be taken back up to Limbo and visit your family as a spirit. Technically the time you were granted was for them to come to Earth as a living, breathing, soul again for 3 hours. But would it be possible to see them twice, once human and once as spirit? You wanted to ask but you made the decision not to in the end.
Around 4 or so Mikey barged in through the front door. The movie was already shut off and the three of you were just sitting around talking in the family room. Mikey walked in and sat down in the chair, all three of you looked at him. He let out a heavy sigh and raised an eyebrow. You all just looked at him, he was a mess, his glasses were crooked, his hair going in directions you never thought it could, his clothes were wrinkled and torn. ‘What the fuck happened to you,’ Gerard blurted out. ‘Errr umm, nothing,’ Mikey blushed. ‘My ass it’s nothing,’ Gerard retorted. ‘You walked into the house, making quite an entrance and you come in here, sit your ass down, looking like a mess and a goofy smile across your face,’ Gerard added. You and Chelsea looked at each other, you were both thinking the same exact thing. ‘Gerard,’ you tugged at his arm. ‘Maybe you should let him have his moment right now, and talk to him later,’ you nudged him. Gerard crossed his arms and leaned back on the couch, then getting up again and heading downstairs. You assumed to his drawing room. Mikey told you that’s pretty much where he was the whole time while you were still in the hospital and told him to go home. You and Chelsea waited until you both heard the door shut downstairs before you turned your attention back to Mikey. ‘So Mikey,’ you said with a sly smile. ‘Getting home kinda late, since school got out at 2, if you actually decided to stay the whole day and not ditch,’ you said with a smirk and raised eyebrow. Chelsea excused herself and left, mentioning that she’d see you soon before she left. Mikey tried to escape with her but you managed to pull him back in and make him talk to you.
‘Now Mikey you were careful right, nothing broke or anything,’ you pressed. ‘For the thousandth time, yes Bree! We were careful!’ You pressed a finger to you lips, signaling him to lower his voice. ‘Can I go now? Now that you know my dirty little secret,’ he asked irritated. ‘Yeah go on, oh wait can you help me to the stairs, I can get down there once I get to the stairs and after that, but yeah I have nothing to hold onto without my crutches, which are downstairs,’ you asked. He nodded and helped you up and you slung your arm around his neck as he held you tightly around your waist. You hopped your way over to the stairs and grabbed onto the railing and hugged Mikey. ‘Never thought you’d be the first between you and Gerard,’ you shook your head lightly. ‘You are going to talk to Gerard about this right,’ you asked. Mikey looked away. ‘Mikey, he’s your brother, plus you know it’d eat him alive if he knew. Considering I have a vow against it until marriage,’ you pointed out. Mikey’s eyes got wide, ‘are you serious? You’re gonna wait until marriage?! Man I feel so dirty for doing it now.’ ‘Don’t be. It’s something that has been going through my family for generations, well except for my Aunt, she had a bit of too much fun in college. If you haven’t noticed she’s not exactly that old looking, and Jesse came earlier than expected. My mom wasn’t so thrilled to find out her baby sister of 6 years younger, was having a baby the same time she was,’ you could see the expression turn to worry on Mikey’s face. ‘Don’t worry, you said you used protection, nothing broke. You should be fine, tell her if she wants to talk or if something happens unexpectedly, you can come to me. I won’t turn my back on you,’ you promised. ‘Thanks Bree, for everything,’ Mikey hugged you one last time before you made your way down the steps. You waved back at him telling him you were fine before you headed back to the drawing room. You turned the knob and lightly pushed the door open. You could see Gerard with his back towards you as he leaned over the desk and scribbling away at the paper in front of him.

Chapter 64[/u][/b]
‘Hey babe,’ you said as you leaned against the door frame. Gerard turned around quickly, startled to hear your voice. ‘Oh hey. What are you doing in here,’ he asked. You shrugged, ‘nothing to do and was curious to see what you were up to.’ ‘Just drawing, nothing special,’ he answered. You gave a half smile, ‘you know we have to leave in a little while to go to the doctors office?’ He nodded, ‘yeah. I’m almost done with this anyways.’ ‘Can I see it,’ you asked. He shook his head, ‘nope.’ ‘Why not,’ you teased. ‘Because, it’s not done and I’m saving it for something,’ he said with a smile. ‘Alright, have it your way,’ you surrendered. You limped your way over to your sketch book and grabbed a couple pencils and went back out to your bed and laid down. You opened it up to a blank page and started drawing random little pictures. Flowers, hearts, coffins, tombstones, suns, moons, anything that your hand drew made its way on the page. You started to subconsciously start writing your name with ‘Way’ as the last name. You liked the way it looked written out on the page.
Bree Scarlet Way’
‘I could get used to that name,’ you thought. You sighed and closed up your sketch book and looked over at the clock, you had to leave soon for the doctor. They claimed they wanted to take a few x-rays to see how your healing was coming along and if it was doing really well you might not have to wear the neck brace anymore. The thing itched and got annoying, you could never look another way without having to have to turn your whole body in that direction. The ankle brace you didn’t mind so much and your walking was getting better, even though you still limped a little. You stuffed your sketch book under your pillow and sat up. ‘Gerard,’ you called. The door opened to his little studio and there he was with a smile on his face. ‘Time to go,’ he asked. ‘Yeah,’ you said. ‘Alright, come on,’ he walked over and held out both of his hands to help you up. He turned around and bent down and you hopped the best your could onto his back. ‘You think you can get up the stairs with me on your back,’ you asked as he headed towards the stairs. ‘You’re not that heavy, I think we can make it, just watch your head for the ceiling,’ he laughed. ‘Thanks for the warning,’ you mentioned just before you actually did hit your head on the ceiling. ‘You’re welcome m’lady,’ he said with a grin. You somehow managed to get up the stairs safely, Mikey was sitting in the family room watching T.V. Gerard gently put you back down on the ground and allowed you to use him as support. ‘Hey Michael,’ Gerard said, calling him that name to piss him off. Mikey turned around with a pissed off face, ‘don’t call me that!’ Gerard let out a short laugh, ‘I’m going to go take Bree to the doctor, you think you can not blow up the house while we’re gone?’ ‘Haha very funny Gerard,’ he snapped at him. ‘What? I’m just making sure, don’t want to come home and not have a home to come to any more. Not to mention Mom, Grandma, and Grandpa won’t exactly be happy about it either.’ ‘Whatever,’ Mikey mumbled and turned back to the T.V. You put on your sandals, since it was the only shoes of yours you could actually get on and Gerard helped you out to the car. You got into the passengers seat and soon you were headed to the hospital.
Gerard hated the hospital, every time he seems to go in there he always has had something serious, or life threatening. The nurses now seemed to know exactly who you both were and just sighed when they’d see you walk through the entrance doors. So you were accident prone, you couldn’t help it, well you could but things happened that you couldn’t control too. The doctor soon called your name and took you back for x-rays. Gerard stayed in the waiting room and read through one of the old magazines that is always sitting there. You got your x-rays done for your ankle and neck and was sent back to a room where you waited for the doctor to come back with any news at all. The door opened at first you thought it was the doctor but it turned out to be Gerard, you smiled and he sat down in the empty chair in the corner. ‘They say anything yet,’ he asked. ‘Nope, still waiting for them to come back with the x-rays.’ The door soon opened and the doctor came in with his clip board and an envelope which you assumed were your x-rays. ‘Ah Miss. Harmony, pleasure to see you again, Mr. Way,’ he nodded towards Gerard. ‘So how have you been feeling,’ he asked you. ‘Better, it doesn’t hurt so much to walk anymore and the bruises are pretty much gone,’ you told him. He smiled, ‘that’s wonderful to hear. Most people who come out of accidents as badly as yours don’t usually recover so quickly, or just don’t make it. But you two, you must really have someone above watching over you.’ You looked at Gerard and smiled with a wink, ‘yeah, guess so.’ The doctor pulled the x-rays out of the envelope and put them up on the screen to look at them. ‘Well your neck seems to be healed, but your ankle still needs some time and your stitches are healed too,’ he said. ‘Kinda figured it would, I sprained it last year pretty badly,’ you sighed. The doctor turned to Gerard, ‘how are those stitches coming along?’ Gerard looked uneasy, ‘not sure, haven’t looked at them lately.’ Gerard never did well with that sort of stuff, he was thankful that he was at least out of it when they did put the stitches in, he’s scared to death of needles. ‘I’ll look at you once we’re done with Bree here.’ Gerard shifted in his chair a bit, not looking forward to his turn. He wasn’t expecting to have anything done today, just you. The doctor took off your neck brace and gave you a different brace for your ankle, and took out the 25 stitches in your forehead.
‘See that wasn’t so bad now was it Gerard,’ the doctor said, taking out the last stitch out of Gerard’s forehead. Gerard still had his eyes closed and biting his bottom lip. You swore if he bit any harder, he would have broken the skin. You were standing next to Gerard the whole time, you took his hand and squeezed it when the doctor was done. Gerard opened his eyes slowly and sighed with relief that it was over with. You guys signed out and left the doctors office and headed back home.
Gerard laughed when he saw the house, ‘guess Mikey restrained himself today.’ ‘Looks like it,’ you said with a smile. You kept rubbing your neck where the brace was for the past month. You’ve been out of school this whole time, Gerard went back but went to the local college instead. Taking the same courses he was taking at the other school but here. The school agreed that you could continue your courses over the summer since you’ve missed so much. Gerard said he’d take some summer courses too so you wouldn’t be alone the whole time. You and Gerard went inside being greeted by everyone. You loved Gerard’s Grandparents they were so nice, especially his Grandma Elena. She was so sweet and Gerard adored her. After all she was the one who did teach him how to paint and draw, and according to Mikey she even taught Gerard how to sing. Even though you haven’t heard Gerard really sing before you trusted his word. The only time you remember hearing Gerard sing was in the car over a year ago. Mrs. Way had dinner ready and was surprised to see that you had your neck brace off and somewhat walking now and that Gerard didn’t have his stitches anymore. ‘Just in time you two, I was just ready to put dinner on the table,’ she said cheerfully. She never did pull a grudge against you after the car accident when you explained to her why you got distracted and that you were pretty tired, she wasn’t exactly pleased but she did forgive you and not hate you. But she said that there would be no more road trips while living under her roof. You and Gerard were quick to agree with her. Mikey rushed past you and sat down at the table ready to eat. Everyone just sorta of laughed to themselves at his excitement to eat. No matter how much he ate he always stayed very thin, damn him and his metabolism.
Dinner was talkative and entertaining. Afterwards you and Gerard headed downstairs, he went back to his studio to go and finish what he was working on earlier. Claiming he had, ‘finishing touches,’ to put on it. You pulled out your guitar and strummed through a couple chords at first. It seemed to be forever since you last played but as you started fingering a couple chords it started to all come back to you quickly. You really wanted to go upstairs and join Mikey, maybe combine a bit with you on guitar and him on bass. ‘I wonder if he ever did tell Gerard about him playing bass yet,’ you thought. You took your guitar and went upstairs and knocked on his door. You could hear him get up and open the door, ‘oh hey Bree,’ he greeted with a smile. He eyed your guitar. ‘Hey, was wondering if you wanted to jam a bit,’ you asked. Mikey looked down the hall, ‘yeah sure.’ He opened the door wider and closed it when you walked in and sat down on the floor. He pulled out his bass and got it tuned and ready. ‘So what do you want to play,’ he asked. ‘I donno, whatever you know best.’ He nodded and started plunking out the notes to a song you both knew really well. After playing it a few times you both could hear footsteps coming up the stairs. Mikey’s door opened and you both saw Gerard in the doorway. ‘Hey babe,’ you smiled. He looked at the two of you with a raised eyebrow. ‘Since when do you play bass,’ he asked Mikey. ‘Since last summer,’ he stuck out his tongue. ‘How come you never told me,’ you knew where this was leading to, the secrets out. Mikey shrugged, ‘you always said I’d give up on it if I started playing and well as you can see I haven’t.’ Gerard smiled at his brother. Brotherly love. ‘If I would have known that you had been playing bass I would have maybe considered starting a band a while back,’ Gerard mentioned.
‘Hmm a band, ha yeah right, like we’d ever be able to do that,’ Mikey snorted. Gerard shrugged, ‘it was just a thought. Well, I’m going to bed and I came up here to get Bree.’ You stood up and gave Mikey a hug, ‘this was fun, G’night.’ You and Gerard headed downstairs. ‘How long have you known he could play,’ Gerard asked. You looked away. ‘The whole time,’ Gerard exclaimed. You bit your bottom lip and nodded. ‘And you never told me,’ he asked. ‘I’m sorry babe, but he asked me not to tell you, he was afraid of what you’d say,’ you said. You kissed him on the cheek before crawling into be. ‘G’night sugar,’ he said as he climbed up the latter to his bed and went to sleep. ‘Night babe.’

Chapter 65[/u][/b]
‘Sugar get up,’ you heard Gerard cooing to get you awake. You peeked one eye open and smiled, ‘what do you want?’ ‘For you to get up and come outside and enjoy today, it is Spring after all,’ he smirked. ‘What’s today’s date,’ you asked. ‘April 1st,’ he giggled. You groaned to yourself. ‘Why do you want me outside, I’m very comfortable inside and in bed,’ you smirked. ‘Ooo can I join,’ he got a giddy and jumpy. You laughed, ‘yeah sure babe, get in.’ He raised an eyebrow, ‘oh no you don’t your getting out of bed,’ he started to tug at you. You gained a bit more strength than him and pulled him on top of you in the bed and kissed him fiercely. You could feel him smile as you kissed him, you quickly slid your tongue into his mouth, his eyes popped open by surprise. You haven’t been this persistent in a long time and caught him off guard. He went along with you, gathering himself under the blankets now with you. You snaked your hands around his waist and started to tug at his shirt, you pulled it off of him and he found his hands to your waist, tugging at the bottom of your shirt. You knew exactly what you were doing and waiting for the right moment. You ere soon stripped down to your underwear and bra, and Gerard down to his boxers. You propped yourself up on top of Gerard, straddling yourself across his lower area. You could feel him grow hard under you and you smirked a little. ‘Some one is getting excited,’ you teased him. Leaning down and placing kisses up his stomach , up his neck and then nibbling on his ear. ‘Oh god,’ he moaned as you did this to him. ‘You ready,’ you whispered into his ear seductively. He nodded quickly and appeared completely ecstatic. You smiled and sat up and put your hands behind your back like you were going to take off your bra, his eyes growing wide with excitement. You tilted your head to the side and looked up, ‘mm well, too bad, it’s not gonna happen,’ and you got up and gathered your clothes off the floor. His jaw dropped, if it could go down to the floor it would have broken the floor and continued going. ‘Are you kidding me,’ he said dumbfounded. You walked up to him and kissed him softly on the lips, ‘April Fool’s love,’ you whispered and walked away into the bathroom to take a shower. ‘That’s not fair,’ you could hear him yell from the bed. You burst out laughing in the bathroom, once you were in the shower you heard the door open, ‘war is on,’ he said and closed the door. You rolled your eyes, ready for whatever it was that was going to be coming your way.
You got yourself ready for the day and went upstairs for breakfast, well actually lunch since you slept in this morning. You found Gerard sulking in the family room in the chair. You smirked and walked into the kitchen and got yourself a cup of coffee. When you went back into the family room, the only person in there was Mikey. ‘Hey Mikey, where did Gerard go,’ you asked him. He shrugged, ‘mentioned something about pay back and ran outside.’ ‘Oh god,’ you groaned and plopped yourself down on the couch next to Mikey. ‘What’s wrong,’ he asked. ‘It’s April 1st,’ you said, hoping he’d get it. ‘And,’ he said. ‘It’s April Fool’s Day if you haven’t realized and lets say I pulled a really evil April Fool on Gerard a little while ago,’ you said. ‘What’d you do,’ he asked excitedly. ‘I got him to think I was ready to have sex with him and at the last minute I got off of him and walked away yelling April Fool’s at him,’ you explained. Mikey scrunched up his face in disgust. ‘Ew I didn’t need to know that,’ he said disgusted. You shrugged, ‘you asked.’ The phone rang and you picked it up, it was Vanessa. She asked for you to come over, she needed to talk to you. You were surprised considering you figured she would have been calling for Mikey. You told her you’d be over there right away. Mikey looked at your strangely when you put the phone down. Vanessa didn’t sound to good on the phone and you got up and left quickly. Leaving Mikey completely confused.
You and Vanessa sat there and waited the dreadful couple of minutes until all your questions would be answered. Vanessa was too nervous to even look at it, so when the timer went off you got up and checked. You looked at it and turned back to her. ‘What color is positive again,’ you asked her. She looked at you in fear, ‘pink,’ she said quietly. You sat down next to her, holding the test in your hands. You hugged her, ‘it’s pink.’ She burst out crying in your arms. ‘What am I going to do, I can’t have a baby, I’m only a junior in high school,’ she cried. ‘I can’t drop out of school, I don’t even want to know what my parents will think, or if I want to keep it or not,’ she kept rambling through her worries. You calmed her down the best you could, ‘the only thing I can tell you right now is to talk to Mikey and see what he thinks.’ ‘What if he dumps me because of this,’ she sobbed. You tucked a few strands of hair that were falling in her face, behind her ear. ‘I don’t think he’d dump you because of this. He loves you too much to do that Vanessa. You’ll figure things out and what the best thing to do is, all of us are here to help and guide you through this,’ you assured her. She hugged you tightly, ‘thank you Bree.’ ‘Come on lets get you cleaned up and head back to over to my place so you can talk to Mikey,’ you said. Vanessa washed her face and you brushed out her hair for her. She put on her make up the best she could, wiping away stray tears that would fall from behind her glasses from her golden hazel eyes. You walked back home and walked inside. Mikey was in the family room.
‘Mikey,’ Vanessa choked back her tears. He turned around and got up and walked over to her. ‘Hey babe, what’s going on,’ he asked confused, looking between you and her. ‘I’ll leave you two alone,’ you excused yourself and walked over to Gerard who was standing at the foot of the stairs. ‘What’s going on,’ he asked as he pulled you close to him. ‘You’ll find out soon,’ you said. ‘This isn’t an April Fools joke is it,’ he asked, noticing that Vanessa was crying again and Mikey was holding her in his arms. He rocked her back and forth, comforting her the only way he knew how. ‘No it isn’t,’ you said and wrapped your arms around him. Gerard took a sip from the glass of water he was holding, Mikey took Vanessa upstairs into his room so they could talk in private. ‘Lets just say, you’ll be thankful that we didn’t do what we almost did this morning,’ you said patting him on the stomach. He spit out the water that was in his mouth. ‘What does that mean,’ he said shocked. ‘You’ll see when they come down and talk to everyone,’ you said. ‘Why can’t you just tell me,’ he asked. ‘Because it isn’t my news to tell,’ you said quietly. You sat down on the couch and turned off the T.V. that Mikey had left on. Gerard sat down next to you, ‘so is it good news or bad news,’ he asked. ‘What? God Gerard, give it up, I’m not going to say. It isn’t my news to share,’ you said finally. ‘Fine, fine, fine, I’ll wait,’ he kissed you on the cheek and you cuddled up in his arms.

Chapter 66[/u][/b]
You and Gerard waited in the family room until Vanessa and Mikey came back down. They sat down across from you, Mikey held Vanessa’s hand, rubbing his thumb over her hand. Giving her assuring squeeze. ‘Gerard,’ Mikey started. You leaned on Gerard, laying your head on his chest. ‘Vanessa, is pregnant,’ he said slowly. Gerard didn’t say anything at first, he just looked at his brother in silence, as if he was waiting for Mikey to yell ‘April Fools’ or something. ‘And you’re the father,’ Gerard said slowly. ‘Yes, I would be,’ Mikey confirmed. Gerard sighed. ‘We’ve talked it over and we’re going to wait and talk to Mom and Dad and her parents before we make the final decision on whether to keep it or not, and I wanted to ask for your support in which ever the decision is,’ Mikey said. ‘So I’m going to be an Uncle,’ Gerard said to himself mainly. ‘Well you are my brother and that would make you my child’s Uncle,’ Mikey said. ‘Are you positive you’re pregnant,’ Gerard asked, directed to Vanessa. She nodded, ‘very sure.’ ‘Well, you have my support Mikey, Vanessa,’ Gerard said. They let out each a sigh of relief, so did yourself. ‘So when do you plan on talking to Mom and Dad about this, not to mention her parents too,’ Gerard asked. ‘Well, we figured we’d tell Mom tonight and try to get Dad here too, and probably bring her parents over at the same time,’ Mikey explained. You both nodded and agreed that, that would be the best idea, it sucks to have to do it twice, just do it all once and get it over with.
Vanessa’s parents sat in the family room with both of Mikey’s, they were looking at each other strangely. You and Gerard sat down next to Gerard’s Mom. ‘Now before anyone jumps down our throats, and starts screaming and yelling at us, we want to say we love you all and value each of your opinion,’ Mikey said calmly. The four parents all sat there waiting for what the news was. Mikey gripped onto Vanessa’s hand. ‘Would you just spit it out already,’ Gerard muttered. ‘Shut up Gerard, it’s a bit harder than you think,’ Mikey snapped. ‘Well,’ Vanessa’s Mom said. ‘I’m, I’m, pregnant,’ Vanessa said. Vanessa’s parents looked at each other and then glared at Mikey. Mr. And Mrs. Way looked at each other in shock and then at Mikey and Vanessa. ‘How far along are you dear,’ Mrs. Way asked. ‘Not far,’ Vanessa said. ‘You realize that you will have to drop out of school and give up your future if you have a child now, not to mention risk your health for it for being so young,’ Vanessa’s Mom said coldly. ‘I know Mom, that’s why we were going to ask what your opinions are on this. We haven’t made a final decision yet on whether we want to keep it or not,’ she said. ‘I don’t think our opinion is was really matters, we’re only here to guide you in your decision and tell you what we would do, it’s mainly your decision,’ Mrs. Way said. ‘Well that’s easy for you to say, you’re the mother of the father,’ Vanessa’s mom snapped. ‘Mom,’ Vanessa snapped. Mrs. Way raised and eyebrow at her and glared. Vanessa’s Dad looked at Mr. Way, neither of them knew what to say. ‘What’d done is done right, she’s pregnant, you’re the father, you’re mother is right Mikey, we can only support you in which ever decision you two decide to make. I can’t say that I’m happy to hear that our children might be having a child this young and may be forced to drop out of school because of it, but we will do whatever we can to help you through this all,’ Vanessa’s Dad said. His wife looked at him like he was insane. Vanessa’s Dad got up and hugged his daughter and shook Mikey’s hand, as did Mr. Way. Mikey’s Mom got up and hugged them both, Vanessa’s Mom did the same but a bit colder than Mrs. Way.
Mikey and Vanessa went up to his room to talk. Make their final decision about it all. It was a lot for them to take in. They came down about an hour later, announcing they agreed to keep it. Both families were understanding and agreed to help them the best that they could the whole way. Little did they know what was in store for their future.
You and Gerard went to sleep, and Vanessa went home with her parents. Mikey really wanted to stay with her through the night to comfort her, it was hard for both of them. They were only 16, how were they going to handle a child that young, not to mention school, and how to raise the child. But they agreed to do the best that they absolutely could, no doubt about it.
The next day was spent very quietly. Mikey and Vanessa went to the doctors office to have the test officially done just to make sure that the test she took was positive and not just some fluke. You and Gerard stayed around the house and you figured it was time to have that talk with Gerard. You sat down on your bed and he joined you, sitting next to you on the bed, you took his hand in yours. ‘Gerard, there’s something I’ve been wanting to tell you,’ you started. ‘You’re not pregnant too,’ he said quickly. ‘Gerard, no. We haven’t done anything like that and I haven’t exactly gone anywhere without you by my side so no, I’m not pregnant, but it is about sex,’ you assured him. ‘Oh, okay, what about it?’ ‘Gerard, there’s a vow in my family, that any girl born is looked upon to be wedded as a virgin, and I promised my Mom when the whole puberty thing started happening to me that I’d stick to that family vow. There’s a feeling deep down inside of me that one day that it will be you at the alter dressed in a black tux and ready to say our, I do’s. And seeing what risk we’d be taking, after this whole thing with Vanessa and Mikey, I see it even more fit to wait it out until that time,’ you explained to him. Gerard pulled you into a hug, ‘Sugar, I’d wait till the end of time to have you and I hope that I will be the one for you when that time comes. I understand that it means a lot to you to wait, and I’ll wait with you, no matter what.’ You smiled, ‘thank you Gerbear, that means a lot to me.’ He kissed you on the forehead. you could hear the door open and Mikey and Vanessa walking in, he was calling for everyone to come to the kitchen. You all gathered around the kitchen table and sat down. ‘They gave us the final results,’ Mikey started. ‘That fast, doesn’t it usually take a couple days,’ Gerard asked. ‘The usual test does but they agreed to give us the one that has a quick response,’ Mikey said. ‘Well,’ Mrs. Way pressed. ‘I am,’ Vanessa started.

Chapter 67[/u][/b]
‘I am not pregnant, the test I took from the drug store turned out to be incorrect. Apparently there have been some problems with that test lately and they have been getting a lot of girls coming in lately retaking the test and discovering that they aren’t pregnant,’ Vanessa finalized. Mrs. Way let out a deep breath and put a hand to her chest. ‘Seriously? So I’m not going to be an Uncle,’ Gerard said. ‘Sorry Gee, not now,’ Mikey said. ‘Damn. Well, I mean, I’m happy to hear you aren’t pregnant so you guys can have a normal life and finish out school and stuff, but you know I was starting to like knowing that there was going to be a little kid calling me Uncle Gerard, I was gonna teach them how to throw a decent spit ball,’ Gerard said. You rolled your eyes, ‘yeah that’s really mature.’ ‘What? No one ever taught me how to throw a decent one, so I figured what the heck mind as well teach the little squirt before they get to kindergarten,’ Gerard pointed out. ‘Whatever,’ you sighed. ‘Well, at least you know the truth now and can let go of all this worry,’ you added. ‘No more sex under my roof or from either of my sons,’ Mrs. Way stated plainly looking at Mikey and Gerard. ‘Trust me, after that scare we won’t be,’ Vanessa said quickly. ‘Good,’ Mrs. Way said and then looked at you. ‘He’s not getting any either,’ you said quickly.
The rest of the day went by smoothly, Jill called again and asked if you wanted to hang out with her and the rest of the girls tonight for a sleep over. The rest of the girls meaning, you, her, Kat, Molly, Sara, Ivy, Courtney, Vanessa, Cori and even Chelsea too. You thought it’d be fun so you agreed to it and said you’d be over around 6. You packed up your things for the night, grabbing some CD’s, make up, the works. And made your way over to Jill’s house. You were greeted at the door by none other than Jill herself, ‘hey babe, never thought you’d get here! Come on in, the pizza just got here!’ She led you into her house and told you where to dump all of your stuff. You were greeted by hugs from everyone, most were pretty surprised to see how well you looked and how you were doing.
‘We were almost positive you wouldn't have come,’ Jill mentioned as you all gathered in the basement. You sat down next to Molly and Sara, Sara came to New Jersey for the weekend, considering your Aunt and Uncle are considering moving here over the summer and they wanted to check out some property now. You looked around the room and saw all the usual faces. You were surprised to see Vanessa here, considering all that has happened. She seemed rather up beat and perky, but you could tell she was still a little bit more on the quiet side than usual. Jill brought up the idea to play Twister. You decided to just be the caller and spin the wheel, you were afraid your ankle would give out in the middle of the game, even though it is in a brace. When everyone was in an awkward position the phone rang. ‘Let the machine get it! Lets finish this round,’ Jill said, as her hand was slipping out of place. You spun the dial, ‘right hand red!’ Everyone fell to the ground, laughing, covering up the voices coming from the answering machine. Once everyone picked themselves up, you all decided it was time for dinner. PIZZA! How you guys managed to get 10 girls around one little kitchen table you weren’t exactly sure, but you all did it.
‘Say, anyone want to see who it was that called earlier,’ Ivy asked with her mouth full. Jill got up and went to the other room to go play back the message. Everyone kept on eating, when Jill came back into the kitchen. ‘Ladies, there has been a request,’ she said with an evil smile. ‘Which would be,’ Courtney said. ‘Our boys want to spend the night as well,’ she smirked. A few started laughing. ‘So, shall we let them,’ she asked for a vote. ‘Oh no, we can’t just let them come, they have to do something first,’ Cori said. Jill smiled even bigger, ‘any suggestions?’ A few options were thrown around the room until one was agreed upon.
A make over for each of them. Make-up and hair styling, the works!
Jill called back the guys and told them to come, they weren’t suspecting a thing. You all ran downstairs and grabbed all the make-up you brought along to the sleep over. You all threw your stuff into one big pile, after labeling what was your own. The doorbell rang and you all made yourselves comfortable in the basement while Jill answered the door. A few minutes later you could all hear the guys’ loud voices and charging down to the basement. Each of them found their other half when they got there. Frankie nearly on top of ivy from the moment he found her. Gerard sat down next to you on the couch and greeted you with a sweet soft kiss on the lips. ’How’ve you been feeling,’ he asked. ‘Alright,’ you told him. ‘You know you can come home anytime if you don’t feel up for this,’ he said. ‘I know,’ you smiled and kissed him on the cheek. Once everyone was settled, Jill stood up with Jepha behind her, holding her close to him by the waist.
‘Boys,’ she began. All of their attention was brought to her. Chelsea leaned in and whispered, so Gerard couldn’t hear, ‘this should be good.’ You smiled and nodded. Gerard looked over with a raised eyebrow. ‘You are allowed to stay the night under one condition,’ she announced. A groan came from each of the guys and all the girls laughed in response. ‘What do we have to do,’ Ray asked, as Courtney cuddled on his lap. Jill smiled, ‘simple. You have to let us use you as a canvas.’ ‘What the fuck does that mean,’ Bert asked. ‘We get to put make up on you and do your hair too,’ she answered him. The guys all looked at her and groaned. Gerard shrugged, ‘whatever, as long as I get to spend time with you,’ he said as he poked you in the side. Frankie wasn’t really paying attention, his lips were a bit too preoccupied with Ivy’s to know what he was agreeing to. Courtney was already playing around with Rays hair, he looked uneasy and afraid. Bert sat there silently. ‘Haha first you are going to actually shower before I go anywhere near that hair,’ Molly said as she pulled at a strand of his greasy long black hair. Branden and Jepha started laughing. ‘What are you laughing at, you’re going to be taking out a few of those piercing’s of yours,’ Kat said to Branden. His jaw dropped, ‘but I can’t take them all out,’ he protested. ‘But I know you’ve had some of those long enough to where you can take them out,’ she rebutted. ‘Fine,’ he pouted. Matt agreed to go along with it, he hadn’t had much of a chance to spend time with the guys and with Cori lately due to school. Mikey looked uneasy about the whole thing, ‘as long as there is no perfume sprayed, I’ll be fine,’ he said. ‘Don’t worry, we’ll make sure to spray anything elsewhere. Just for you Mikey,’ Jill said. Mikey smiled, ‘thank you.’ Sara was already looking Quinn over on what she was going to do with him, hair and make up wise.
‘Any hair dying will be done in the basement tub, hair spraying will be done in the upstairs bathroom, and make up will be done in here. Any questions,’ Jill asked. You all shook your heads, ‘good, sorry boys. But you appearance is in our hands now.’

Chapter 68[/u][/b]
‘There is no fucking way you are cutting my hair,’ Gerard protested. You laughed, ‘I was kidding, I love your hair long, I won’t cut it. I just said that to scare the shit out of you. Besides, I’d probably screw it up badly anyways.’ Gerard sighed with relief, ‘thank god you’re fucking kidding.’ ‘But can I dye the roots turquoise,’ you asked. ‘Just the roots,’ he handed you the bleach and hair dye. ‘Yay,’ you giggled and made him sit down. ‘This is only temporary right,’ he bit his bottom lip. ‘Yeah, it will only last about three weeks, then we can dye your roots back to black again.’ He looked at his reflection in the mirror and sighed. ‘Serious pay back will happen if you screw it up,’ he warned with a half smile. ‘Calm down. I know what I’m doing. I used to dye Stephanie’s hair back in high school for her,’ you assured him. He nodded and closed his eyes the entire time you worked on his hair. ‘Stop wiggling around, you’re gonna get streaks instead of roots,’ you lightly hit him on the arm. ‘But this shit smells really bad and is making my eyes water,’ he whined. ‘I never said it was going to be a pleasant experience. It’s bleach of course it’s going to smell bad. Suck it up,’ you told him. He sat quietly the rest of the time as you worked on his hair. Once you were done you pointed to the door, ‘go rinse.’ He groaned. A few minutes later he came back with his hair soaking wet and his roots dark green-blue. You handed him the blow drier and laughed as he struggled with it. ‘You look like a girl using that thing,’ you laughed. ‘Shut up! I’m not used to using one of these things, I usually just let my hair air dry how ever it decides to,’ he said, getting frustrated. You finally took it away from him before he did something stupid with it. ‘Give it to me, you’re gonna electrocute yourself with that thing,’ you took it away from him and finished the job. You brushed out his hair and styled it with some hair gel. ‘There, done. Like it,’ you asked. He looked at it, ‘it’s cool.’ You smiled and kissed him on the cheek. ‘Dying it black isn’t going to take this long will it,’ he asked nervously. ‘No that’s one color, we had to bleach out your roots first so the color would show up for this, the black will cover up the blond,’ you explained to him. ‘Thank god,’ he sighed.
You had some fun and put eyeliner on his eyes and decided to grab your red eye shadow and put a little on his eyes too. It actually looked pretty cool on him. You haven’t met too many guys who could pull off make up, but Gerard could. ‘Whoa! I look like a vampire like this,’ he said when he looked in the mirror. You laughed, ‘why doesn’t that surprise me?’ He poked you in the stomach, ‘you know you love me as a vampire.’ He grabbed you by the hand and spun you towards him so your back was to his chest, he pushed your head to the side showing off your neck as he brushed your hair away. He kept his other arm wrapped around your waist so you couldn’t escape his grasp. You felt his tongue lick your neck and soon his lips pressed against it. He sucked on that spot for a little while, leaving his mark there before pulling away to actually nibbled on the rest of your neck. You giggled and squirmed in his arms. ‘You’re not getting away that easily love. You tortured me for over and hour now it’s my turn. I do what I please with your for the next hour,’ he grinned evilly at your refection in the mirror. ‘Oh help me! Please don’t hurt me Master, I swear I didn’t mean to,’ you played along with it. ‘You think sorry is going to help you, please, nothing you say can’t change my mind, you’re mine now, love,’ he said with a deep Romanian accent. He turned you around in his arms so you were facing one another. He pushed a rough hard kiss on your lips. He pulled away and you pretended to go limp in his arms. He picked you up and threw you over his shoulder. He carried you back to the basement and threw you down on the couch. You grabbed his hand in the process pulling him on top of you. ‘Don’t think any unwelcome deed goes unpunished,’ you whispered and pulled him into a deep passionate kiss. Something you two haven’t shared in a long time.
You two broke apart when you were hit with a pillow. You both turned and glared at the one who threw it. Frankie. ‘Oh don’t glare at me like that! Everyone is done now, you two can go play vampire and prey later, we’re gonna play truth or dare now,’ he said. You and Gerard both sighed, he got off of you and sat up on the couch. ‘By the way, cool hair Gee,’ Frankie complimented before he got dragged back into the bathroom by Ivy to do last minute make up alterations. Mikey came downstairs with his hair sort of spiked up in a mohawk in the front. He had a bit of eyeliner on but not as much as Gerard. Bert came down with Molly in front of him, he had red eye shadow surrounding his eyes along with some red streaks in the front in his hair. And you could tell she made him shower because he also was clean shaven and in clean clothes. Branden and Kat came into the room next, he had a mohawk that was bright red and she made him take out a couple of his piercing’s too. You almost didn’t recognize Ray when you saw him, Courtney gelled down his afro so it was long and curly. You think that was all he’d let her do because he really didn’t look any different other than that. Matt came with Cori, he had some eyeliner on and some other girly make up that she must have forced him to put on, along with parts of his hair pulled into tiny pigtails. He looked embarrassed but tried his best not to show it. He and Cori sat down on the couch across from you and Gerard. Jill brought Jeph back into the room, she let him keep in the earrings and such. She combed his hair forward so a chunk of his hair fell in front of his eyes. She put some eyeliner on his too. That seemed to be a common trend with all of the guys, they almost all had eyeliner or eye shadow on. Next Quinn came in with Sara, she two toned his hair, the top bleach blond and the under layer a chocolate brown. It looked really good on him and he seemed to like it too. Lastly, Frank. He came out with two X’s created by eye liner over each of his eyes, along with red eye shadow and black eyeliner. His hair was cut into a two toned, black and bleach blond laid down mohawk, all combed forward over his right eye. ‘Ladies, I think we did a good job on them,’ Jill said. ‘Think we should let them stay,’ she asked. You all looked at each other, ‘yeah. They were good boys during the process,’ you said. Jill looked around and got agreeing nods. ‘So be it. You guys can stay. Alright now who wants to play Truth or Dare?’ Everyone raised their hand.
‘Lick his face! Lick his face,’ Frankie yelled at Ray. Gerard scrunched up his face, waiting for it to all be over with. ‘Sorry Gee, but he’ll never let it go,’ Ray apologized and quickly licked Gerard’s face. Gerard wiped away the spit Ray left behind on his cheek and wiping it on the carpeting. Ray sat back down and looked around the circle. ‘Vanessa, truth or dare,’ he asked. She nervously looked around, ‘um truth.’ ‘Aw fine you’re no fun. Ummm, have you ever found a guy other than Mikey attractive?’ She sighed and looked at Mikey, ‘celebrities or like a guy from school or something?’ ‘Any guy,’ he said. ‘No,’ she answered simply and innocently. ‘Damn,’ Ray said. His turn failed. ‘Alright, Bree,’ Vanessa said, ‘this one’s for you. Truth or dare?’ ‘Truth,’ you smirked and crossed your arms. She gave you and evil grin. ‘If you could, would you marry Gerard?’ You smiled at Gerard. ‘Yes,’ you said proudly. Gerard looked at you with a surprised look on his face. ‘What? You think when I say ‘I love you’ I don’t mean it?’ ‘Well no, it’s just I didn’t think you have thought about it before, marriage I mean,’ he stuttered. Everyone threw glances at one another. ‘How little you know dear,’ you smiled and turned your attention back to the game. ‘ Frankie, truth or dare?’ He crossed his arms, ‘dare.’ ‘Oooooo,’ a few people said softly. He smiled and waited for your answer. ‘I dare you to go into the front room, while the rest of us go outside, and moon the street in the window at the neighbors,’ you said. He laughed and ran upstairs. You all ran outside and waited for him so show off his bare ass to the window. ‘Any one got a camera,’ Jill laughed. Some one actually did have one and snapped a shot of him in the action as he did it. A few people were outside across the street and saw it and you could all hear their gasps of disgust and surprise when he did it. You all ran back inside and finished out your game for a little bit longer. You all finished up the night with a movie before you all fell asleep.
‘You really love him, huh,’ Mikey asked you. ‘Yep, I do,’ you told him, looking down at Gerard who was sleeping next to you on the fold out couch. Mikey was sleeping in a chair across from you. ‘From the first day he saw you I think he knew he loved you. You know, one of those love at first site things. I don’t know why but I’ve been waiting to see him screw up. But then again I shouldn’t be waiting for it, he loves you, and I don’t think he’s gonna screw things up with you,’ Mikey smiled. ‘I hope not,’ you sigh. ‘I mean, when Vanessa asked me for the truth, if I’d marry him right now. If I could I did mean it, when I said I would. He’s like my other half. If he wasn’t around I’d have nothing, I’d be so lost without him.’ ‘That’s sweet Bree. Actually he feels the same way. He was scared half to death when you weren’t able to come home from the hospital right away. He’d stay up all night in his little studio in the basement and even play on his guitar a little bit, just to calm his nerves. I’m afraid to know what he’d be like if he lost you,’ Mikey said softly. You smiled, ‘I’m alive and well again. You know Mikey, I really do hope that he is the one waiting at the alter on my wedding day. I can’t picture anyone else there but him.’ ‘And I hope to be standing next to him watching you walk down the aisle in your wedding dress as his Best Man,’ Mikey answered. You smiled, ‘I hope so too.’ You yawned, ‘I’m gonna go to sleep now, G’night Mikey.’ ‘G’night Bree,’ he said and fell asleep himself.

Chapter 69[/u][/b]
‘Mikey, we need to go to the mall, or somewhere his birthday is in three days and I haven’t had the chance to go and get him something yet,’ you said. ‘Well, how do you suggest we get out of the house and him not notice we’re gone and get back into the house without asking a thousand questions when we get back?’ ‘I donno, but we need to go to today,’ you pressed upon. ‘Yeah no shit,’ Mikey rolled his eyes. You gave him a shove, ‘got any ideas toaster boy?’ ‘I messed up the toaster once! But ideas, no,’ he said. You and Mikey heard Gerard coming down the stairs to the basement. ‘Hey guys,’ he said when he saw you, ‘what’s up?’ You and Mikey look at each other, ‘umm nothing.’ ‘Umm, we’ll talk later okay Bree,’ Mikey excused himself and went upstairs in a hurry. Way to make it not obvious Mikey! Gerard sat down next to you, ‘whatcha up for today?’ ‘I donno. What are you up for,’ you asked. He shrugged, ‘Frankie called a little while ago and mentioned he wanted to go to the mall.’ You smiled, perfect, ‘I like that idea, we should go!’ He nodded, ‘alright, I’ll call him to let him know we’re gonna go too.’ ‘Okay,’ you said cheerfully and went off to the bathroom to shower up and get ready.
‘Umm, I have to go to the bathroom really quick, I’ll join up with you guys when I’m done,’ you excused yourself from the group. ‘You sure Sugar, we can wait,’ Gerard said. ‘Yeah, go on, I’ll meet up with you guys,’ you waved and went in the opposite direction. Mikey was holding back a smile, since he knew what you were up to. You watched them walk off and around the corner into a store. You ran upstairs to the vintage record store to pick up the Iron Maiden vinyl and The Misfits one you had them put on hold for you. How the heck you were going to be able to join back up with them and hide them you had no idea, but you had to get them, his birthday was in three days! You picked up the vinyl’s and joined up with the group shortly after. ‘Uh Mikey can you put these in your bag,’ you whispered to him as the rest of the group got ahead of you a bit, including Gerard. ‘Yeah, put them in,’ he opened up his bag so you could hide them in there. ‘Thank you,’ you said and you two joined up with the rest of the group, which consisted of Gerard, Frankie, and Ivy and Vanessa. Frankie and Ivy decided to take a ‘sick leave’ this week from classes in New York, the rest of the gang was coming back this weekend to celebrate Gerard’s birthday.
The trip to the mall consisted of the usual fooling around and ending up with getting kicked out for causing such a racket in the stores. Frankie insisted on jumping into the clock tower fountain in the middle of the mall, which got him a personal escort out of the mall.
You slipped yourself down into the basement without Gerard noticing, with his birthday gift in hand. You closed the door as silently as possible and then ran down the steps and looked around the room to figure out where to hide them without him finding them. It sucks when you have limited places to hide things, especially when you have to share a room. Not that you were complaining about that fact. But still. You slid the vinyl’s under your mattress towards the foot of the bed, just so you wouldn’t accidentally break them in the middle of the night with your tossing a turning. You seemed to be doing that a lot lately, or so Gerard has told you. Satisfied with where you put them you went into Gerard’s little studio room with your sketch book at hand. You sat down at the other desk in the corner that was yours, that held all of your art supplies. You turned on the lamp and opened up the book to a blank page. You sat there an looked at it, deciding on what to draw. You decided to let your imagination take over and let your hand draw what it pleased on the page. You found yourself drawing a couple to tattoos of Frankie’s that he’s gained over the past couple of years. He was addicted to getting inked every once in a while. A few times you all tried to get Gerard to go with him, but with his fear of needles he freaked out and locked himself in his room until Frankie left with Ray. Apparently Ray got one too, but no one has seen it and Courtney doesn’t talk about it either. You remember going with Frankie to get your tattoo, damn that thing hurt like a bitch to get but you loved it anyways. Frankie told you, ‘oh no it won’t hurt, it feels like it tickles,’ bull shit! You started to randomly draw hearts in the corners on the page with arrows going through them. Something you haven’t done since junior high. You used to get so bored in those classes, so you would just doodle in your notebooks instead of taking actual notes.
You felt two arms find their way around your waist and head on your right shoulder. You smiled and continued to draw until you closed up the book and shifted your weight towards Gerard. ‘What brings you down here,’ you asked as you kissed him on the cheek. ‘I wanted to tell you I have a date tonight,’ he said with a sly smile, ‘and my date and I have to start getting ready or we won’t be on time.’ ‘And who might you be going on this date with,’ you smiled. He threw a towel at you and picked you up and put you down on the toilet in the bathroom. He kissed you on the cheek, ‘get ready. We’re leaving in an hour, and I still have to get ready.’ You stuck your tongue out at him, he laughed, ‘I can do that too,’ and he did. ‘Any thin specific your date should wear,’ you asked. He looked up at the ceiling, ‘ummm, what ever the fuck you feel like wearing, but on the dressier side.’ ‘Alright, pajama pants and an old stained shirt it is,’ you teased. He laughed and let you get ready for tonight. You got in the shower and realized he never said exactly where it was you two were going, all you knew was that you were leaving in an hour and you had to look nice. Oh that’s a shit load of help. Gerard always knew how to spring really good surprises on you at the last minute. You memory drifts off to when he took you to the Belleville mansion and set up the romantic dinner and the things he gave you, the concert tickets, the promise ring, and the weekend alone together. You quickly finished up and did our hair and make up, and putting on a red pleaded skirt you had that you never wore but you figured you mind as well wear it for the hell of it. Along with a nice black tank top, nothing that fancy, casual enough to wear your knee high socks with red strips on the top and your low top red converse.
You walked upstairs and sat in the family room with Mikey, waiting for Gerard to finally finish up getting ready. ‘So any clue where your brother is taking me tonight,’ you asked Mikey. ‘Uh I think he mentioned something about dinner, and a movie. You know the classic date,’ he said. You nodded and Gerard appeared in the room. You stood up, he looked at you and smiled, ‘you look beautiful.’ ‘Thank you, you look nice yourself,’ you smiled. He had on his usual jeans, but the ones without the hole in the knee, a black long sleeved shirt that had a hood, and his hair actually nicely combed through with his turquoise roots showing. ‘Well lets go,’ he took your hand and led you out to the car. You pulled up to the diner that you used to go to when you two were together during high school, ‘I thought you said this was fancy,’ you laughed. ‘I never said we were eating here,’ he winked. ‘I’ll be right back,’ he said and ran inside and came back with dinner. ‘So where are we going to have dinner then,’ you asked. ‘You’ll see,’ he smiled and drove down the street and pulled up in the parks’, parking lot. You both got out of the car and he led you through the park, it was night so you really couldn’t see much of anything. He was leading the way and holding your hand as you trailed behind him. You stopped when he started to enter into the forest preserve, ‘umm Gerard, why are we going in there?’ ‘Do you trust me,’ he asked. ‘Of course I do,’ you answered. ‘Then follow me,’ he said and you squeezed his hand a bit tighter as he led your through the trail of the forest preserve.
You jumped when you heard something rattle in the weeds, Gerard laughed. ‘Shut up, it’s not funny,’ you snapped. ‘Yes it was, you should have seen the look on your face when you jumped 5 ft in the air,’ he said. ‘Whatever, is this place your taking me to close, my feet are starting to hurt anyways,’ you said. ‘Yeah, it’s not too far from here, ah yeah that reminds me, close your eyes,’ he said. You closed your eyes and let him lead you until he stopped. ‘Stay here,’ he said, ‘and keep your eyes closed.’ You were uneasy about this, but you trusted him and stayed where you were. You heard his footsteps come back and he stood behind you, ‘open up your eyes now.’ You did slowly and saw a beautiful lake with a full moon reflecting in its waters along with each star shinning brightly. ‘Oh Gerard, it’s beautiful,’ you said. ‘You like it,’ he smiled. ‘I love it,’ you turned and kissed him passionately. ‘Bree, there’s something else I had planned for this evening other than just dinner, this, and a movie afterwards,’ he said. ‘Okay,’ you said. Gerard took in a deep breath and stood in front of you, holding your hands in his. He looked into your eyes and smiled. You couldn’t quite figure out what was going to happen but what ever it was, it was giving you butterflies in your stomach and making your heart beat faster.

Chapter 70[/u][/b]
Gerard took in a deep breath, ‘I know we’re young. Fuck we’re 19, but I know you’re the one I want to be with for the rest of my life. I’ve known for a long time now that I truly love you and be with you forever. So what I’m trying to say Bree is,’ he kneeled down on one knee. You didn’t know really what to do other than just stand there and look down at him with a smile. ‘Bree Scarlet Harmony,’ he reached into his pocket and pulled out a black velvet box and opened it up to reveal a white gold ring with a heart shaped diamond in the center and little square diamonds lining the band on each side of the heart, ‘will you marry me?’ ‘Oh Gerard,’ you gasped and hugged him tightly and kissed him passionately on the lips. When you broke apart you both smiled, ‘is that a yes?’ You nodded your head quickly, ‘yes, it’s a yes.’ You were both sitting on the ground next to each other, since you knocked him to the ground when you hugged him, taking yourself down with him. You had tears of happiness spilling from your icy blue eyes. He took the ring out of the box and pulled up your left hand, taking your promise ring off and slipping the engagement ring in its place. You smiled and wiped away your tears of happiness, ‘it’s beautiful Gerard. When did you get it?’ He bit his bottom lip, ‘well, it was our first Christmas together, when I bought it.’ ‘You mean, you’ve been waiting to do this for a year and a half,’ you asked. He nodded, ‘yeah. I was just waiting for the right time.’ You wrapped your arms around his neck, ‘I think this was the right time,’ you whispered into his ear and then kissed him softly on the lips. ‘So shall we eat, before our food gets cold,’ Gerard asked once you two broke apart. You nodded and he laid out a blanket on the ground for the two of you to sit on.
‘When did you have time to figure all of this out,’ you asked as you picked up a fry. ‘I had help,’ he smiled, ‘when we got kicked out of the mall I had Frankie bring all this stuff here for me.’ ‘You mean Frankie knows that you were going to ask me to marry you,’ you asked. He smiled, ‘nope! I just told him that we were going to have a picnic by the lake and go see a movie, and everyone else heard variations of that. Fuck Mikey doesn’t even know I was planning on asking you.’ You blushed. You two finished eating and packed up the blanket and stuff then headed back to the car. ‘So you’ve had my ring in hiding for 18 months and I never knew it,’ you laughed to yourself. ‘I’m good at hiding things,’ he winked. ‘You’ll have to teach me your ways sometime for I suck at hiding things,’ you laughed. ‘Oh I know you suck at hiding things, how else do you think I found your sketch book so easily before,’ he laughed. ‘My point exactly,’ you said. You two got in the car and decided that you two actually were going to see a movie as planned. You had all this energy inside of you just wanting to burst out and make you scream with happiness. You looked down at your finger and admired it, you were actually going to be getting married to Gerard Way, the love of your life, the one you couldn’t see yourself better matched with. Such ironic timing too, you and Mikey were just talking about this at Jill’s sleep over not too long ago.
You and Gerard decided on the new horror movie that was out. You and Gerard didn’t last very long in the actual watching it aspect, you ended up making out in the back row the whole time. You ended up breaking apart from each other when a loud shrill scream came from the screen. You both laughed as everyone else was gasping and catching their breath. Gerard leaned in a gain, you could barely feel his warm breath upon your lips as he leaned a bit closer to kiss you. ‘Do you want me,’ he whispered. You nodded your head. ‘How badly,’ he asked. ‘Badly,’ you whispered. ‘Show me,’ he teased. You leaned forward and combed your fingers through his hair and pressed your lips against his own. This time around, licking his bottom lip asking for entrance, he parted his lips slightly and allowed you in, allowing your tongues to collide and dance with one another. You opened your mouth a bit more and he found his way into yours. You twisted your finger around a strand of his hair, pulling him closer and deeper. You felt his hands find their way to your hips and lightly touch across your bare stomach. Causing goose bumps where his cold hands traced, you smiled against his lips with surprise. You felt him smile back and his hand at your waist pulling you even closer to him. You eventually found yourselves on top of each other on the ground in the row. You were thankful that there wasn’t anyone else sitting in the row or in the row in front of you, otherwise you knew you’d both get busted and kicked out. When you heard the ending credits you broke apart from each other and sat back up on the seats as if you were watching the entire time. You tucked a strand of your hair behind your ear and straightened out your shirt and skirt. You both got up with the other people and headed out of the theater. When you got back to the car you both started laughing hysterically. ‘You know, I’m surprised we didn’t get caught, you kept moaning really loud,’ Gerard said. ‘Well it didn’t help that you kept grazing up and down my thigh like that, your hands are freezing,’ you said and got in the car. Gerard rubbed his hands together and got in the car too. You tow headed back home to find the house completely dark.
‘It looks like everyone is asleep, what time is it,’ Gerard asked. You looked down at your cell phone, ‘hah almost 2.’ Gerard had a big smile across his face, ‘so worth it.’ You stayed on the porch for a little bit and held each other tight before going inside. You walked inside the house silently and tip toed your way down the steps to the basement. Doing your best not to wake up Donna, Gerard’s grandparents or Mikey. You managed to get downstairs with the lights off, ‘we got in and didn’t wake anyone up,’ Gerard whispered, the sound of victory in his voice. You turned on the lights and you and Gerard both jumped when you saw Mikey sitting on the edge of your bed looking at the two of you. ‘What the fuck Mikey!? Are you trying to scare the shit out of us,’ Gerard whispered harshly. Mikey eyed the two of you, ‘where were you two all night? As I remember you saying, dinner and then a movie.’ You and Gerard looked at each other. ‘You tell him,’ you whispered into his ear. ‘I’m afraid to tell him he looks like he’s ready to rip my head off,’ he whispered back. ‘You know I can hear the two of you. I have shitty eye sight, my ears are perfectly fine,’ Mikey said, waiting for an answer. ‘Well, we went to the lake for dinner and then we saw the last movie of the night at the theater and it just got out a little while ago,’ Gerard explained. ‘You guys left at like 5, how long did you two spend at the lake?’ You looked at Gerard and then back at Mikey, ‘a while.’ ‘How long does it take two people to eat and leave,’ Mikey said irritably. You looked at Gerard and let go of his hand and then walked over and sat down next to Mikey on your bed. ‘Mikey how would you feel if you found out I was to be your sister in law,’ you asked him. He looked at you with a raised eye brow, ‘why would you ask me that? It’d be cool to have you part of the family, you pretty much are already, but why?’ You looked at Gerard and smiled. Gerard came over and sat down next to you. ‘Because, I asked her to marry me,’ Gerard answered before you could. Mikey’s eyes grew wide, ‘does Mom know?’ ‘Nope, you’re the first one to know,’ Gerard said. ‘Holy shit,’ Mikey exclaimed. ‘Shhh keep it down,’ you and Gerard both said. ‘Sorry. So do you guys know when you’re getting married?’ ‘Well, we decided to wait until after we finish college before we get married,’ you said. ‘That’s like three years from now,’ Mikey counted on his fingers. You smiled and looked at Gerard, ‘we know, but we can wait it out.’ Mikey shook his head, ‘you guys are crazy, but I support you guys anyways.’ ‘Thanks Mikey,’ you and Gerard both said. ‘Now go to bed,’ Gerard said and pointed up the stairs. ‘Alright, I’m going, congratulations,’ he said and headed towards the stairs, he stopped. ‘So is this why you were so nervous and talking to yourself while Bree was getting ready,’ he asked Gerard. Gerard blushed and threw a pillow at him, ‘shut up and go to bed.’ ‘G’night you two,’ Mikey said and went back upstairs to his room. You looked at Gerard who was slightly blushing still, ‘aww you were nervous?’ He laughed nervously, ‘ a little.’ You kissed him on the cheek, ‘that’s cute.’

Chapter 71[/u][/b]
The clock ticked every second. Each second bringing you closer and closer to your new life. A life of just you and Gerard. You looked at the new ring on your finger. Was this right? Should you and Gerard be engaged already, or was this not supposed to happen for a few more years? Either way you figured it was bound to happen, right? You shook the unwelcome negative thoughts from your mind and watched the spring rain fall outside the window. You got up and went up to Mikey’s room to see what he was up to. You knocked on this door, ‘hey Mikey?’ You could hear him running around, ‘one second Bree,’ he called through the closed door. A few moments later the door opened by a flustered Mikey. ‘You alright? You looked like you just had a war with your pillow,’ you examined him. ‘Sorta, was attempted to make my bed, so I got in a war with the sheets, not the pillow. But I’m fine. So what brings you up to the residence of Mikey Way?’ You shrugged, ‘I wanted to talk to you. ‘About?’ You sighed. ‘Oh that. Yeah, come on in,’ he opened the door wider to allow you to come in. You sat down on his newly made bed and looked down at your hand. Mikey sat down across from you, on his desk chair.
‘Second thoughts,’ Mikey asked. ‘I’m not sure. I mean, I love your brother and I really do want to spend the rest of my life with him. It’s just, we are just going to be turning 20, Gerard tomorrow and me next month,’ you said. ‘So are you saying you’re not ready,’ Mikey asked. ‘I feel like one big thing keeps happening right after another, and I have no control of it anymore, ‘ you sighed. ‘Vanessa’s pregnancy scare, no one had control over so don’t blame yourself for that one, but I agree it was a big thing that just happened,’ he said. You nodded and looked down. ‘But this isn’t really about the wedding is it? It’s just more about life in general,’ Mikey asked. ‘Yeah, I guess,’ you said. ‘Alright, I may only be 17, but I know Gerard and I know him better than anyone else, besides you. I honestly think he wouldn’t have proposed if he didn’t think it was right and it didn’t feel right to him. He loves you Bree, I have never seen him this happy, focused and dedicated ever, until he met you. You want to know what he told me that day after we went with you to buy your guitar,’ Mikey said. ‘What?’ ‘He said that if what he was feeling was real, then you’d be The One for him. He knew from the moment he saw you that he wanted to be with you forever,’ Mikey said sincerely. You smiled. ‘Ah there’s that smile I love to see on your beautiful face! Don’t over think things, just go with it, everything will turn out perfectly and how it should be,’ he said. ‘Thanks Mikey,’ you got up and hugged him. ‘no problem. I’m always here to talk to if you feel that you can’t go to anyone. I’m here,’ he hugged you back.
You walked down the stairs the same time Gerard was walking through the front door. He dint’ realize you were there when he walked in, you could clearly tell he was aggravated about something when he slammed the door shut and threw his car keys on the side table. You stood there silently, not sure whether to ask him what was wrong now or let him cool down first. ‘Uh, Gerard, you alright?’ He jumped when he heard your voice, he looked flustered. ‘Yeah, I’ll be fine,’ he waved off. ‘What’s wrong,’ you dared to ask. ‘It’s stupid,’ he said You walked over to him and put your hands around his waist , ‘doesn’t matter to me if it’s stupid or not. Tell me anyways.’ He sighed, ‘I was just at the record store and some asshole bought both of the records I was planning on getting and they were the original, and are nearly impossible to find. They don’t make them anymore and there are very few still out there for sale, and some asshole beat me to them,’ he explained. ‘What records were you planning on getting,’ you asked. ‘The Misfits and Iron Maiden,’ he answered. ‘Aw, I’m sorry. Who knows maybe you’ll come across those again, they couldn’t have been the last ones left completely,’ you assured him.
He nodded slightly as he calmed down. He took in a deep breath, ‘yeah I guess I jus wasn’t supposed to get them yet.’ You were laughing flat on your ass on the inside because little did he know both of those exact records were hidden under your mattress, only 5 feet below of where he sleeps. ‘Tomorrow will be a better day,’ you told him. A smile spread across his adorable face, ‘yeah.’
‘So when do you think we should tell everyone else we’re engaged,’ you asked him. ‘Not sure. We can keep it our own dirty little secret until we get closer to college graduation,’ he suggested. You let out a slightly evil laugh, ‘I like the way you think Mr. Way.; ‘I’m glad you do Mrs. Way,’ he said and kissed you softly on the lips. You smiled and let go of him to sit down on the couch. Gerard followed suit and sat down next to you. Gerard pulled you close to him in his lap with your back to his chest. He brushed you hair away from your neck before placing soft kissed down to the side where he left his mark from Jill’s sleep over. ‘You’re such a vampire,’ you giggled as he lingered over to the flesh above your artery. ‘You know you want me to suck your blood,’ he whispered seductively into your ear, allowing his warm breath to send shivers right down your back. He kissed you softly in that spot be fore nipping at it, pretending to bite you. ‘Ah, you know your mark hasn’t completely healed from last time,’ you said closing your eyes tightly. ‘Sorry,’ he said and shifted your position so you could rest your head on his chest, he pulled a blanket over the two of you to keep warm.
‘So are you guys planning on telling mom yet, about you know,’ Mikey asked. You and Gerard looked at each other and then looked back at Mikey. ‘Nope,’ Gerard said. ‘Gerard, I think mom would be upset if her eldest child decided to keep his engagement a secret from her,’ Mikey reasoned. Gerard sighed and then looked over at you with wondering eyes. ‘What do you think?’ ‘Mikey has a point, I would be upset if my son was keeping something like this a secret from me,’ you said. Gerard groaned, ‘fine, but only her. But can we at least hold it off for a little bit longer. It is my birthday tomorrow.’ ‘Yeah we know birthday boy. I don’t care when you tell her, just tell her soon,’ Mikey said and got up and left, leaving it just you and Gerard sitting on your bed. He looked at you and smiled, ‘what are you thinking birthday boy?’ ‘Well it is going to be my birthday and you know what I want,’ he said as he pulled you into his lap. ‘What would that be,’ you asked with a sideways grin. You could feel his warm breath on your neck, causing all of your muscles to relax as you melted into his arms. ‘You,’ he whispered and kissed you on the cheek.

Chapter 72[/u][/b] Happy Birthday to you Happy Birthday to you Happy Birthday dear Gerard ::cough:: Butthead! ::cough:: Happy Birthday to you ‘Frankie that was mean,’ Ivy slapped him in the arm. ‘What the fuck, it wasn’t me that called him a butthead, that was all Mikey,’ Frankie said in defense. Mikey quietly laughed and covered his mouth. ‘Mikey,’ a number of you yelled. ‘Don’t worry guys, he’ll get his pay back later,’ Gerard said. ‘Well, make your wish and blow out the candles,’ Bert said eagerly. ‘Alright alright,’ Gerard said and blew out the candles after closing his eyes and smiling. After a few seconds of black and Gerard’s hand gripping on your thigh, the lights flickered on and you could feel his hand quickly retract away. You pursed your lips and looked at him with a, I-know-that-was-your-hand, kind of look. He smiled widely. ‘Alright already, cut the kissy faces, already! Lets cut this cake,’ Bert yelled. Clearly he wanted cake. First piece was cut and placed in front of Gerard. You continued slicing the cake and passing them around so everyone got a piece, Bert asked for two, which he piled onto one plate and polished off rather quickly. ‘So everyone has a piece right,’ you asked. You all looked over at Bert, ‘yep,’ he mumbled through a mouth full of cake. You all laughed. ‘Bree,’ Gerard said, you turned towards him, your face meeting contact with a piece of cake. Gerard smashed the cake on your face a bit more, making sure he got your whole face covered. You pulled the plate off your face and pulled off a chunk of cake off of your face and wiped the frosting from your eyes. ‘Two can play at that game,’ you thought and picked up your plate and smashed it into his face. The plate fell from his face and he had a big smile on his face, ‘yummy!’ ‘You guys are such two year olds,’ Quinn laughed. You both looked at him and smiled. Gerard licked off what he could from his face, his mom threw him a towel to get off the rest of it. He looked at the towel and then back at you after his mom left to go get something. He threw the towel onto the ground, ‘I think I’d rather have you clean me off!’ You laughed and licked his cheek which was mainly frosting, ‘yum!’ Gerard laughed at the same time as you licked off his other cheek. ‘You know, I can get used to this,’ he said as he pulled you onto his lap. ‘Ew guys, get a room,’ Jepha said and threw the towel back at the two of you. You held up a finger, ‘one second.’ You turned towards Gerard, ‘your turn!’ He did the same to you, he licked off each of your cheeks. ‘We need to have cake more often,’ Gerard laughed as he wiped the cake off of his face with the towel. He handed it to you and you did the same. ‘PRESENTS!’ ‘Geez Frankie you make it sound like it’s your birthday,’ Ivy said. ‘What can I say, I get excited easily,’ he said and ran into the family room and jumped on the couch. Everyone else gathered into the family room, you sat down next to Gerard and Mikey was on the other side of him. ‘Mine first, mine first,’ Frankie said, grabbing the bag and shoving it towards Gerard. Gerard laughed and took the bag, he searched through it and found a couple CD’s he wanted. ‘Thanks man, I’ve been wanting these,’ he said. The circle of gifts went around. Your present came last. You handed him a box, he shook it at first before opening it. He looked like a little kid on Christmas morning, he smiled and ripped the paper off the box. He pulled the lid off and found a sketch book that was filled with drawing and photo’s of the two of you. The last page was a drawing of the lake he took you to only a couple days earlier. You slaved away at that picture for hours while Gerard was asleep and thought you were asleep too. ‘I love it,’ he said and kissed you on the lips. Frankie was having fun playing with the paper and bows, sticking them on everyone. Mainly Ray, he kept trying to see how many bows he could get to stick to his hair. Ray kept shoving him off every time he came near him with a bow or piece of paper. Ray wasn’t the only victim, everyone got attacked by Frankie eventually. ‘Wait! That wasn’t the last present,’ you said quickly. Everyone sat back down and you ran downstairs to your room. You grabbed the wrapped up vinyl’s and ran back upstairs. You handed it to Gerard, ‘but you gave me something already.’ ‘Just open it,’ you said. He smiled and opened it up. His jaw dropped when he saw the vinyl’s he went to the record store to buy yesterday. ‘I’m the asshole that bought the records already,’ you whispered in his ear. He hugged you, ‘you are by no means an asshole babe, thank you so much!’ You smiled. ‘Fuck I love you,’ he said and kissed you on the cheek and pulled you into another tight hug. ‘I love you too babe,’ you said between gasps he was holding you so tightly. You patted him on the back with your free left hand. You forgot you had your engagement ring on. ‘Hey did you get a new promise ring,’ Jill asked. You quickly pulled your hand away, Gerard looked at you and slightly nodded. ‘Uh yeah,’ you answered quickly. ‘Lemme see it,’ she said. You slowly pulled out your hand, she admired it. ‘I’ve seen that ring before, but it was in the wedding ring section at the jewelry store,’ Courtney said. All the girls were huddled around your hand. Courtney, Jill, Ivy, Sara, Molly, Kat, Vanessa, Cori, and Chelsea. Chelsea looked at you and winked. You figured she already knew about the whole engagement deal, after all she did see everything. Well, almost everything. You looked at Gerard, ‘well they made it similar to the wedding ring, but it’s not exact,’ he explained. ‘It’s beautiful, looks expensive,’ Jill said. ‘No shit, it was,’ Gerard said. You kissed Gerard on the cheek. ‘But the lady was worth it,’ he said and winked at you. Mikey looked at you and Gerard nervously. You pulled your hand away once everyone took a good look at it. ‘Hey isn’t that the ring you bought-’ Frankie was cut off by Gerard’s hand going over his mouth. He gave him a cold glare, ‘but it was in the wed-’ he mumbled through his hand. ‘Shut up Frankie,’ Gerard warned. Everyone looked at them oddly. Gerard smiled innocently. This was becoming awkward and you excused yourself for a moment. You went upstairs to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. Gerard came up a few minutes later. He knocked on the door, ‘sugar it’s me.’ You opened the door and let him in. He wrapped you in a tight hug, ‘I’m sorry, I didn’t think he’d remember. Usually he never does remember stuff that happened more than a week ago.’ You buried your face in his chest. He combed his fingers through your hair and kissed the top of your head. ‘I love you Bree,’ he whispered. ‘I love you too Gerard,’ you said as you laid your head on his chest and closed your eyes. You stood there for a little more than five minutes before realizing that you two were probably being questioned about your whereabouts. ‘How much you want to be they think we left to go fuck,’ Gerard laughed. You let out a small laugh, ‘well, I know Mikey can set the record straight and tell them we aren’t.’ He raised an eyebrow at you. ‘He knows that I want to wait until our wedding day for that,’ you explained. ‘Oh okay,’ Gerard said and took your hand. You headed back downstairs and joined in with the group and enjoyed the rest of the party which consisted of loud music, high levels of energy, and the traditional random games inside and outside.

Chapter 73[/u][/b]
The next month flew by. Frankie’s band had started to become really popular with the locals in Belleville and out in New York. You had started going back to school again with Gerard at the local college. Chelsea had become your new best friend, she was always there when you needed someone to talk to, mainly about stuff you didn’t want to talk to Gerard about. Some things are just not meant to be discussed with the opposite sex.
You sat in class, it was raining outside. You were having the hardest time paying attention to the teacher. Honestly, did you really need to be learning about art history? Oh yeah, you were going to be an art major, it’s in your requirements. Gerard had his head down on the table, you figured he was asleep. He could sleep through anything, but yet he’d never get in trouble. Usually. As the professor went on and on about Picasso and his abstract work, you kept looking out the window and watching the rain fall. You didn’t even notice that the professor dismissed you. ‘Hey rain drop, class is over,’ Gerard said. You pulled you text book and spiral together and stuffed them in your bag before heading to the other art building. This was the one class you didn’t have with Gerard. He decided to take up and extra drawing class when you had your advanced painting class. You were actually working on a painting that you were having put in the art show at the end of the semester. Gerard doesn’t know yet, and you don’t plan on telling him either. It’s more so going to be a surprise.
Class soon ended and Gerard was waiting for you at the front doors of the building. His hair was soaking wet along with the rest of him. ‘Did you like stand out in the rain and take a shower,’ you asked, looking him over. He looked outside, it was still down pouring buckets. ‘If you haven’t noticed, standing out there for less than a second is going to get you fucking soaked,’ he said. ‘Ah true,’ you agreed. ‘So shall we run to the car,’ you asked. ‘No, we’re gonna walk,’ Gerard said sarcastically. He grabbed your hand and you two sprinted across campus to get to the parking lot to the car. Gerard at first couldn’t find his keys to open the door. ‘Would you hurry up, I’m wearing a white shirt here,’ you yelled. ‘I’m trying I’m trying, but they’re slippery,’ he said as he fumbled with his keys and putting them into the car lock. He opened up his door and unlocked yours. You quickly opened the door and slammed it shut once you were in. You looked over and Gerard was looking at you with a goofy smile. ‘What are you so happy about,’ you asked. You watched his eyes look down a little, below your face. You rolled your eyes and crossed your arms across your chest. ‘Just get us home,’ you said. You made him break his gaze and drive home before the rain got any worse.
‘We’re going to go see Frankie’s band play tonight at 7, you guys up for coming,’ Jill asked through the phone. ‘Um let me check and see what Gerard and Mikey have going on tonight really quick,’ you said. You covered the one end of the phone. ‘Oh boys!’ Both of them quickly filed into the room. You laughed, ‘you guys up for seeing Frankie’s band play tonight?’ ‘Yeah sure,’ Gerard answered for both of them. You nodded, ‘okay you can go back to what you were doing.’ Gerard headed back upstairs and Mikey went back into the family room to resume his video game. You uncovered the end of the phone, ‘yeah we can go tonight.’ ‘Great! It’s at the coffee house at 7, I’ll see you guys then,’ Jill said. ‘Yeah, see ya,’ you hung up with each other and you went to take a shower. You still smelled like rain and you felt gross too. You grabbed a fresh towel and ran into the bathroom to clean yourself up for later. Which really was only 2 hours. You locked the door and stripped down out of your clothes and turned on the shower until the room became steamy. You got in and cleaned up, starting with your hair and working your way down. You shaved your legs which you haven’t done in a little while, you always felt so much cleaner after completing that task. As you were putting the razor back you slightly stumbled and the razor sliced across your wrist. ‘Damn,’ you yelped. You watched the blood trickle down your arm. Just great, it looks like you just tried to cut again, attempting to open one of your old scars. Actually the scars were starting to fade, they weren’t so much of a red purple color but more skin colored now. It was nice seeing the past fade away, almost as if it never actually happened. To the rest of the world it didn’t, but to you and Gerard it did.
You swiped on some make up and heavy eyeliner, leaving your hair down and wavy. You put on a clean pair of jeans with holes in the knees and a black and white stripped long sleeved shirt that had holes cut at the ends to slip your thumbs through. You tied up your black high top chucks and met up with Mikey and Gerard downstairs. ‘Beautiful as always,’ Gerard complimented. ‘Thank you,’ you smiled and kissed him on the cheek. ‘You two can go make out at the coffee house, can we go now,’ Mikey said irritably. Gerard rolled his eyes and you guys headed to the coffee house.
You met up with the rest of the group, everyone wanted to come up to see this show, Frankie said the band had an announcement to make and he wanted all of you guys to be there. You guys shoved two table together to fit you all in one space. ‘Any clue what this big announcement is,’ Jepha asked Ivy. ‘You’ll see,’ she said with a smile. A few minutes later the band took the little stage in the back. ‘Hey everyone, we’re Pencey Prep! Thanks for coming out to watch us tonight! Tonight is kind of a special night for us, this morning we got a call from Eyeball Records and they said they wanted to sign us to their record label,’ the front man said. You all looked around at each other in shock, Ivy sat there and laughed at the looks on your faces. ‘Holy shit that’s fucking awesome,’ Bert said. ‘Yeah Frankie was high on excitement all day since he heard the new,’ Ivy explained. After the band was done playing Frankie came over. Everyone giving him congrats on getting signed to a record label. ‘Never in my life was I expecting this,’ Frankie said with a smile. You all partied it up the rest of the night before heading home, tired, achy, and some of you drunk.
