Chapter 2 - The Concert

It was Saturday, meaning- today is the concert. I was wearing red long sleeves, a simple black shirt with a faded pink 'Get Over It' and a faded pink heart with thorns above the 'Get Over It' on top of my red long sleeves shirt, black jeans, and white Ed Hardy shoes with a lady and a skull as a design.

I heard a knock on the door then opened it. It was Pete, Ashlee, and Joe (Trohman). We were all very excited. We got into the limo and proceeded to the the concert. When we got there, we went backstage and Gerard and Mikey came to greet us.

"Hey! Thanks for coming to our concert." Gerard said.

"Nah, it's nothing, guys. It's because we all think you rock" Pete said. "I mean. Hayley here, you know, from Paramore?" Gerard nodded. "Well, she wanted to introduce her to you." Pete said grinning.

I glared at Pete and he's just laughing so hard.

Gerard reached his hand out and said "Well, I'm Gerard and... I'm a big fan of your music, Hayley Williams. We all listen to it even my bro Mikey, here." I grabbed his hand and we shaked hands.

"Nice to meet you, Hayley." Mikey said.

"Nice to meet you too, Mikey." I said.

"Yeah, umm... we gotta go to the stage." Gerard said. "Come on, Mike!"

They went off to the stage and we went to our seats.

The curtains came up and we saw them. Gerard started the concert with two songs from their previous album 'Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge'.

"Malibu!! How the fuck are you? We sure are fucking excited to be here!" He said. "You know, we have four guests here tonight. Two guys from this band I like, one from this band I love, and the other one... a singer. Come up here and give this people a damn good show!"

We followed him and went up to the stage. When we went up, the crowd screamed.

"These two guys here, Pete Wentz and Joe Trohman from Fall Out Boy!! This girl here, Hayley Williams from Paramore!! And this other girl here, Ashlee Simpson!!" He shouted. The crowd screamed with excitement.

"Hey Guys! Who should I sing with?" Gerard asked the crowd.

"Hayley! Hayley!" The crowd screamed. The three came down.

"You must be kidding me..." I whispered.

"No, sweetie. You deserve it." Gerard whispered back with a grin. "Now... I know you know this Hayley. Come on, sing with me."

Gerard sat on a chair and started playing his keyboard.

"When I was... A young boy...
My father... took me into the city...
To see a marching band...

he said son when you grow up,
would you be the savior of the broken,
the beaten and the damned
he said will you defeat them
your demons and all the non-believers,
the plans that they have made?
because one day I'll leave you
a phantom to lead you in the summer
to join the Black Parade" Gerard sang.

He suddenly stood up and kicked off his chair to the side.

"When I was a young boy
my father took me into the city
to see a marching band

he said son when you grow up
would you be the savior of the broken
the beaten and the damned" He screamed.

I grabbed the mic and sang "Sometimes I get the feeling she's watching over me
And other times I feel like I should go
And through it all, the rise and fall, the bodies in the streets
And when you're gone we want you all to know"

We sang the chorus together and the rest of the song with similar arrangement of turns.

"Now I know ya'll enjoyed that." He said. "You too, didn't you, Hayley?" He whispered into my ear and to the mic. It sent chills down to my spine. I became bright red and asked Gerard what he was doing. I saw Pete and Joe who were laughing their ass off.

"Come on, babe. Enjoy it. This is our moment." Gerard answered.

I just smiled and enjoyed it as he said. We spent the rest of the concert singing together.

At the after-party...

We went in the club that's sponsoring the concert. There were many celebrities. Including... Lindsay Lohan, Hilary Duff, Avril Lavigne, Ashee's sister Jessica Simpson, John Mayer, the other guys from Fall Out Boy, Panic At the Disco, my band Paramore, The Used, and all of the other bands and singers. And also actresses and actors. Avril waved at me and I went to her.

"Hey! We were like, watching the concert on this big screen this bar had and we were, like, so surprised to see you there with Gerard Way singing your life out. You did good, Hayley!" Avril said.

"Yeah. I really didn't expect Gerard to, like, invite me to sing with him, you know? I was like, what are you doing and he was, like, enjoy this babe, this is our moment." I said.

"Oh My God Hayley! He called you babe?? That is so gold material!" Avril shouted.

"Quiet down, Av! I think it was more of his image thing and not one of those I-like-you things that most of the boys do."

"Yeah right. I think he likes you! I mean he's into your music and you're into his..."

"Yeah but..."

"Hey. Excuse me Ms. Lavigne. Can I please borrow your friend and take her to the dance floor?" Gerard suddenly said.

"Why yes Mr. Way. You can. As long as you tell your brother to dance with me." Avril replied.

"Oh really Ms. Lavigne." Gerard said holding his laugh.

"I was born ready to dance with you, ma'am." Mikey said appearing from behind Avril. Avril and I were laughing so hard while Gerard and Mikey were holding their laughs.

"Come on! Stop the fancy talk and let's get to the dance floor!"I said.

Gerard took my hand and walked me to the dance floor while Mikey did the same to Avril. We went to the dance floor and danced our butts off. When I couldn't dance anymore, I excused myself and went to the bar counter. Pete sat beside me and ordered some beer.

"Hey Hayley." Pete said.

"Hey."

"You were really great earlier at the concert. We should celebrate." He said holding up a bottle of beer.

"Pete... you know I don't drink."

"Come on, Hayley."

I just agreed because I know how Pete will get if I don't agree with him. We drank some bottles and eventually... I got drunk. I started telling nonsense. Pete got drunk too. He invited me to the dance floor and I just refused. Gerard noticed me being drunk and I guess he got shocked. I saw him going my way and just laughed.

"Hayley! A-are you drunk?!" He said with shock. "Wha-What the hell? How many bottles did you drink?"

"I dunno... twenty bottles? Hehehe. Nah. Just... six." I said while laughing.

"Oh God. Come on, Hayley. I'm going to take you home!" He said. "Where do you live?"

"I dunno. In America?" I said still laughing.

"Oh... crap. Come on I'll bring you over to my place" He said.
