I imagined watching them kiss is what it must feel like to watch your brother and sister kiss. But worse. Much, much worse.

I feel my mouth open in disgust, my eyes blankly staring at them. Gerard wraps his arms around Blake's shoulder, twisting her body closer to his. Ewwwwwwww...

I feel an elbow nudge sharply into me. I turned quickly to see Alicia.

"Stop it." She hisses.

"I can't," I whisper back desperately. I hear her sigh and get up as I continue to watch Gerard practically maul Blake. I clap my hinds together before getting up.

"Just going to get more...chips." I say before running out of the room and into the kitchen. I don't really think they noticed. I lean against the kitchen top, letting out a long breath. Alicia turns to me.

"What do you think you're doing?"

"...breathing?" I ask, utterly lost with her.

"No, no, no... You can't leave them alone! They're our guests!"

"Lic, they're my brother and your best friend. They invited themselves over and have since ignored us and enjoyed certain gross activities which a younger brother should never have to see his elder brother engaging in." I laugh heartily. She folds her arms sorely.

"Well if you think that's gross, how will you feel when their children are conceived on that couch because you left them alone too long." She asked, her eyebrow rose in victory. I raise a finger as if I am going to oppose but halt.

"Good point." I turn to walk out of the door, but am caught by a thought. I turn my head to Alicia.

"Do you think, y'know... coitus, would be something they could do... you know with Blake and" I don't finish. Alicia stared at me appalled.

"Good point, again. Better not dwell on that." I twitch nervously before walking into the room. I was decided. They were NOT going to have my nieces and nephews on that couch and no matter of awkward convocation would get in my way.

"So who's up for a game of scrabble?"

GERARD

"Q-I-N-T-A-R!" Blake shouts as we stare at our letters. I'm not about to ask what the hell it means so I just spell it on the board. Mikey and Alicia look at it carefully.

"That's not a word." Mikey states.

"Yes it is." Blake smiles.

"There's no U." Alicia said confused.

"Yes, but it's still a world. It's Albanian currency." Blake says proudly. My mouth drops.

"You little nerd." I laugh, poking her arm. She slaps it away, but her eyes smile at me. As Alicia starts playing around with some letters positioning them on the board, she opens her mouth to speak.

"Are you nervous for your operation on Thursday?" I looked to Blake, her eyes stay firmly on the board. She watched Alicia fingers pushing into place each letter.

"No. I'm rather excited." She nods, looking up to me.

Well now this could be the last of all the rides we take
So hold on tight and don't look back
We don't care about the message or the rules they make
I'll find you when the sun goes black

And you only live forever in the lights you make
When we were young we used to say
That you only hear the music when your heart begins to break
Now we are the kids from yesterday

All the cameras watch the accidents and stars you hate
They only care if you can bleed
Does the television make you feel the pills you ate?
Or every person that you need to be
[ Lyrics from: .com/lyrics/m/my_chemical_romance/the_kids_from_ ]
Cause you only live forever in the lights you make
When we were young we used to say
That you only hear the music when your heart begins to break
Now we are the kids from yesterday

Today, today
We are the kids from yesterday
Today, today

Here we are and we won't stop breathing
Yell it out 'til your heart stops beating

We are the kids from yesterday
Today

Cause you only live forever in the lights you make
When we were young we used to say
That you only hear the music when your heart begins to break
Now we are the kids from yesterday
We are the kids from yesterday
We are the kids from yesterday
We are the kids from yesterday
Today, today

"You're ward." A nurse smiled to me as she opened the door with one hand. I smile and roll in, Gerard is behind me with my overnight bag. She leads me to an empty bed and signals to it.

"Can I leave you to get comfortable? I have some matters to deal with. The doctors will be down soon though to put a numbing patch on to prepare for the anesthetic." I nod and watch her leave before sitting onto my bed. Gerard pulls the curtain around us, shielding us from the eyes of others. He finally sits next to me and takes my hand. His thumb rubs against my tender flesh automatically.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine." He tells me. I smile, but I'm not very sure.

"Trust me. You're going to come out of this so much better." He moved his hands to my neck, focusing his eyes into mine.

"I trust you." I leaned my nose and cheek into the crook of his neck, breathing out sharply.

"Hello, I'm your surgeon for today's operation."

GERARD

I tapped my fingers against my knees, popping air out of my mouth as I waited in the hospital. Bpb sat next to me, lazily flicking through a lifestyle magazine.

"Did you know that there is a diet where you only cheq tobacco leaves? They saw it represses your hunger..."

"No I didn't Bob." I said tensely. There's an awkward silence between us. I heard Bob flick his magazine to the next page.

"Woah, doesn't she have a good pair of legs?" Bob said holding the magazine up to my nose. I pushed it away.

"Boobbb." I moaned.

"What? I'm just trying to lighten the mood. Gerard they're not going to be done for ages and when I agreed to wait with you I didn't think it would be this boring."

"Well that's the only way I could get you to agree to wait with me."

"By lying?" He questioned.

"I prefer the term misrepresentation." I smile. I pop my mouth once more before getting up.

"It's a miracle!" Bob exclaimed. Some patients and doctors looked at him briefly as he did this. Bob glowed red and lowered his head.

"Yep, we're getting something to eat. Worrying like this on an empty stomach will gimme a stomach ulcer."

"Exactly. Then both you and Blake would be ill and I'd have to look after both of you like some su[per talented, blonde, booby, ho nurse." Bob sighs as he says that, his eyes drifting of into some dream world. Seconds go by before I think he's had enough Naughty Nurse dreaming and I click my fingers in front of his face.

"Bob, earth to Bob." He blinks rapidly before waking up.

"Sorry I don't know what came over me." He wipes the drool away from his mouth. We walk down the endless halls until we meet the cafeteria. I buy a pepsi max and tomato and cheese sarny. Bob on the other hand buys a slice of chocolate fudge cake and a double shot mocolatte.

"I pop open my pepsi and take a sip."

"Soo..." Bob smiles with a large piece of unchewed chocolate cake in his mouth.

"Would lead to..." I smile looking up to him.

"You and Blake."

"We're humans."

"Yes, I know that. How's it going? I mean we all knew you two would get it together eventually, but how is the getting together?" He says emphasizing every over world with an incredibly perverted smile.

"It depends what you mean by getting together..."

"Intimacy..."

"As in?" I question again. I can tell Bob's getting vexed with my riddles.

"The SEX!" He practically shouts out. I jump as he does so, dropping my Fork. I blush as I bend down and retrieve it, before waving a few apologetic glances at those who sat next to us.

"Well..." I mutter.

"Well, what? Is she dirty? God I knew she was dirty." Bob roared with laughter, his head tilting back. I roll my eyes. This was all guy talk, but it was uncovering some rather raw nerves.

"Quite the opposite infact."

"Military?" Bob gasps.

"Not even that." I say mysteriously.

"What, what's more bog standard than that?"

"Not having sex."

Silence.

"Oooooohh."

"Yes. Can you comprehend that?" I ask, my face burning bright red.

"Wait is she getting you to take it slowly or something?"

"No, not her. Me. I just don't feel comfortable going to that stage in her condition."

"But you could if you wanted to."

"Well yes, but that isn't the point. It feels wrong. I'm waiting until, she's better." Bob shrugs and take a bite of his cake before looking up at me curiously.

"What?" I ask exasperated.

"Nothing. I was just wondering when you grew that mangina of yours."

"Oh fuck off." I tried to say seriously, but giggles came out all too quickly.
