"And guess what she did after that?" Gerard said laughing hysterically. I hid my face in embarrassment.
"She slapped him!" He exclaimed. The others roared with laughter. I shot Alicia a look, but she kept on laughing, sticking her tongue out.
"Isn't this supposed to be a band practise? I mean...I know Christa and Kaitlin want to see you play!" I said firmly smiling towards Bob and Rays new girlfriends. They were actually real nice...
"I suppose..." Ray mumbled picking up his guitar.
"Thank you!" I smiled, still blushing from embarrassment.
"Aww, honey you're bright red!" Gee smiled- still lauging.
"Don't honey me, Gerard Arthur Way!" I said.
"Arr, you're just jealous because people ARE GOING to pay to listen to us." He smiled, picking up the mic.
"Deaf people don't count." I said sourly, sitting on a chair and getting ready to watch them. Gee rolled his eyes before smiling.
"I think this one is going to be Demolition Lovers..." A soft melody from Franks guitar hit me first. This was not what I expected from the boys, but it was utterly amazing. Then Gerard started singing.
"Hand in mine, into your icy blues
And then I'd say to you we could take to the highway
With this trunk of ammunition too
I'd end my days with you in a hail of bullets
I'm trying, I'm trying
To let you know just how much you mean to me
And after all the things we put each other through and
I would drive on to the end with you
A liquor store or two keeps the gas tank full
And I feel like there's nothing left to do
But prove myself to you and we'll keep it running
But this time, I mean it
I'll let you know just how much you mean to me
As snow falls on desert sky
Until the end of everything
I'm trying, I'm trying
To let you know how much you mean
As days fade, and nights grow
And we go cold
Until the end, until this pool of blood
Until this, I mean this, I mean this
Until the end of...
I'm trying, I'm trying
To let you know how much you mean
As days fade, and nights grow
And we go cold
But this time, we'll show them
We'll show them all how much we mean
As snow falls on desert sky
Until the end of every...
All we are, all we are
Is bullets I mean this
As lead rains, will pass on through our phantoms
Forever, forever
Like scarecrows that fuel this flame we're burning
Forever, and ever
Know how much I want to show you you're the only one
Like a bed of roses there's a dozen reasons in this gun
And as we're falling down, and in this pool of blood
And as we're touching hands, and as we're falling down
And in this pool of blood, and as we're falling down
I'll see your eyes, and in this pool of blood
I'll meet your eyes, I mean this forever"
Christa, Kaitlin and I sat there in shock at what we had just heard, whilst Alicia smiled smugly.
"So what did you think?" All the sudden Gee turned shy; looking down, slightly red.
"It was beautiful..." I said in the midst of Christa and Kaitlin's appraises.
"Really?" Gerard asked.
"Really, really." I said sternly.
"Bull-shitter, I went off on the bridge!" Ray exclaimed.
"And I almost missed the whole of the intro!" Mikey laughed.
"SHUT IT! IT WAS AMAZING!" I told them.
"It was wasn't it..." Bob said, a faint smile on his face. I looked back to Gee.
"It really was."
"And that brings us onto the good news!" Mikey exclaimed, whilst hugging Alicia... I watched them carefully.
"Well, we have like 15 gigs lined up." Ray told us.
"That's great!" I said enthusiastically.
"Okay, less chitter, chatte we have a band practise going on, you know?!" Mikey laughed. I sat back in my chair and listened to them play, a firm smile stuck onto my face as Gerard ran around- Jumping onto Bobs drums and screaming viciously into the mic, Frank seemed to spit a lot...but he was incredible to watch- Mikey spun around on his heels, Ray rather amusingly head banged; his 'fro shaking above him. I noticed Bob watching me from his drums, I gave him a little wink before taking out a cig and lighting it.
5 WEEKS LATER------------------
GERARD
Nerves fired through me. I jumped up and down, trying to psych myself up.
"Okay, good luck! I'm going to go and get into the mosh!" I heard Blake say to Mikey. She gave the others a quick hug before coming to me.
"You're going to do great!" I told me, I wanted to believe her, but I was way to freaked out to.
"There is a scout!" I exclaimed.
"Yeah, there is and he's going to love you!" She said, giving me a hug. I hugged her back, my hands around her back tightly, after a couple seconds she let go and smiled again.
"Just be yourself..." I nodded as I watched her leave us to go to the mosh. This was...maybe our, 20th show? Yeah...I think so. Anyways, it was our 20th show and there was a scout out in the audience. There was actually 3 of them. I didn't help that I was of my face, either.
"High fives!" Mikey said as we carried out of ritual of high fiving before shows. Mikey took this very seriously. As they called our name I could feel a cold sweat rise up my back. I ran on, my masses of black hair almost blinding me.
"We're My Chemical Fucking Romance!" I screamed. The crowd cried back, I could almost hear Blake's voice screaming along.
"So we're gonna open by playing a pretty little song by The name of Demolition Lovers." My eyes went back to the others who started to brace themselves for the into.
"And I'm dedicating it to a very special friend of mine who is in the audience..." I said, eyes connecting with the amused looking Blake.
"Hand in mine..."
SORRY THIS IS SO SHORT! I kind of wanted to get the ball rolling on the whole MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE aspect in this story! I love you guys! Hope you enjoyed!
