Chapter 25 – How to Break a Man's Heart
Gerard
"Dad, can I stay up and watch the gig tonight? Boston is meant to be a great crowd!" Tyler whined.
"No, Tyler, you need to be in bed!" Christie said matter-of-factly.
"But Mom…" his voice increased in whininess.
"Maybe just this once, Chris."
"I said no!" What the fuck is up with her?
"Please Chris, just tonight. It's all I ask." I whined in the same tone as Tyler.
"You sound like Ty…Okay, fine. Just this once." She smirked slightly. Tyler and I high-fived, both grinning.
"We all carry on, when our bothers in arms are gone, so raise your glass high for tomorrow we die, and return from the ashes you crawl!" I sang to the stadium, finishing off Mama. Now's the time, Gerard! Do it now!
"You are all fucking superstars! But I need to do something very important, and there's someone I want to introduce you all to! Christie, can you step out here please?" I looked over to the side of the stage to see her shaking her head. Her eyes were wide with shock and fear. "Come on, Chris! They want to meet you, now! Don't leave 'em hanging!" I grinned, walked over to the side of the stage and grabbed her hand. "You'll be fine," I whispered away from the mic.
I tugged on her hand and she walked out onto the stage with me. The crowd erupted, cheering her on. I pulled her to the centre of the stage, and began to talk…
"Now, Boston, this is the beautiful Christie Finch! Isn't she beautiful?" I stopped and they all screamed, "Yeah, that's what I thought too. Anyway, this girl matters more to me than anything, and I want to show her that!" I turned to look at her and she was smiling sheepishly.
"Why are you doing this to me?" She laughed.
"Well, there's something I need to do…" I pulled something out of my back pocket, not letting her see it. I then took her left hand in mine, and knelt down. The crowd began to scream, and she looked bewildered. "Christie Finch; would you do me the incredible honour of marrying me?" I opened a little red box to reveal I silver ring with a moderately sized diamond in the centre.
The crowd were suddenly screaming even louder.
But Christie's silence was deafening…
Christie
Oh shit, what do I say? After the shit with Frank, a proposal isn't exactly what I need right now…
The crowd were chanting "YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!"
The spotlight was on us.
The rest of the band was on edge.
Gerard's eyes were full of hope.
Shit; how do you break a man's heart in front of 30,004 people?
