It's been a MONTH, ohohoh. By the way, Gorillaz was AM-A-ZING. And I saw them exactly a month ago, muahh.
Oh yeah, another reason that I didn't update is because there's a bad fanfic thread on Gorillaz-Unofficial that this is probably going to end up at. Just so you know, if ANY of my favorite goons posts this on there, you're dead. Love, ScribbledPaper.
Anywho, let's get this show on the road!
Chapter 7- His Name Is Gary
I remeber the first thing I said to him, "Where does this bus go?"
"I don't know," he said, "I just got here yesterday. I can tell you ain't from 'round these parts either."
"No, I'm not."
"You sound American."
"I'm from Canada...well, I grew up in New York until I was 10, and then moved to a suburb near Toronto."
"Ah." He stuck out his hand. "Name's Gary. I don't have a last name."
"My name's Keishy. I want a more normal name...just call me String."
"That's quite an...interesting name."
Suddenly the bus pulled up. I told the driver where I needed to go as I handed him my money. Then I took a seat. Before long, Gary showed up again. "Is this seat taken?"
"No, you can sit here."
Gary sat down and we were quiet for a few minutes. "So, what brings you to England?"
"I'm on a tour with a band, um, Gorillaz, you heard of them?"
"Ah, yes. Huge fan, actually."
"It was my friend's fault I met them. Before April, I didn't know who they were."
"Ah."
"But yeah, I'm with them."
"I see."
"Do you want to come with us tonight?"
"Absolutely! You just need to get me in there."
"I'm sure they'll be okay with it."
Later that night, I was being SUCH a girl trying to figure out what to wear. I ended up with a white, red, and black dress with a red cardigan over the top and black moccasins. I spent an hour making my hair as straight as I could get it, and smiled. I still had my braces on.
I left the bathroom in a very good mood and knocked on the door connecting the two hotel rooms. 2D opened the door. "Whoa, String, lil' dressed up dere?"
"What do you mean?"
"Why're yew so dressed up?"
"Oh, because I invited a friend along."
2D laughed. "Yew mean...yew finally got a boyfriend?"
"We're just friends for now," I said, blushing.
"Jus' friends? Den why're yew blushin'?"
"Umm.."
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. "He's here!" I squealed. I ran to the door and let him in. "2D, this is Gary." Gary stuck out his hand. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Pot."
"Nice to meet yew, Gregory."
"Gary," he corrected.
"Uh, well," 2D began, "Dis girl righ' 'ere is Noodle."
"Konnichiwa," Noodle said.
"An' th' one next t'er is my fiance, Scribs an' me daugh'er, Cassidy."
"Anneyonghaseo," Scribs said with a smile.
"...An' Murdoc's in 'dere wif Cyborg."
"Where's Russel?" Gary asked.
"Uhm...'e wos too big t'fit in th' plane still."
"Oh."
The ride to the arena was so much fun. Gary, 2D, and I sang the entire way there, which really pissed off Murdoc. He finally yelled at us to stop, and we did.
When we got there, I introduced Gary to the crew and a few of the 'other' band members. We wore lanyards with passes so that we didn't get kicked out by security, as always.
The gig went more than amazing. Gary kissed me during On Melancholy Hill. It's offical- we're now boyfriend and girlfriend. Someone was smoking something backstage when this happened. It gave me a contact high, and Gary had to stop me from giggling. He wrapped his arm around me and I smiled and calmed down. His skin was so warm, and I was so cold. It felt great.
When the concert ended, we went back to the hotel. As it turned out, Gary got a room down the hall and was going to go with us. He traveled around with us through England. He even took me out to dinner one night.
However, things turned very sour when we got to London. It was about an hour before we were going to leave for the Arena and Gary hadn't shown up yet. I took the extra key he got for me and went to his room. "Gary!" I shouted. This is when I saw it. My mouth dropped, and I couldn't belive what I had just seen. "Gary...!" I choked. "How could you?"
A/N: Uh oh.
