Chapter 26: Love

Nova's POV:

Hunter and I walk to the backstage area and he kisses me before taking the stage for his last performance in Louisiana. He has two new songs he wanted to do here and I take my seat near the edge of the stage and hear Taylor Swift shout, "Go Hunter!"

Hunter strums the opening, "Well, I didn't know me, like I know me now Sometimes you gotta get lost so you can get found I've been scared of the dark I've been scared of the light But if you never get knocked down, you'll never learn how to fight. Imagine all of the dreams you're too scared to chase You spend every last tomorrow looking back on yesterday I've been where you are so many times before These are moments when you find what you've been living for,"

I watch him start to move more as the beat picks up, "This is where you fall This is when you get up This is where it all begins This is where it hurts This is when you learn that This is where it all begins Where it all begins"

I smile and start to think to myself about how cute he is when he performs.

I watch Hunter swallow and I can tell he is nervous now, "My Momma used to say when I was just a child "Life's little ups and downs make it all worth the while" Oh don't worry 'bout nobody because nobody's keeping score Yeah, your hardest days are a part of something so much more"

I try to catch his attention and I finally manage to do so when he looks back at me, "This is where you fall This is when you get up This is where it all begins This is where it hurts This is when you learn that This is where it all begins Where it all begins Starting over is a beautiful thing You find out who you are through the pain."

I smile at him and he smiles back, "This is where you fall This is when you get up This is where it all begins This is where it hurts This is when you learn that This is where it all begins Where it all begins Where it all begins."

He smiles more and takes a breath, "So that song was a bit harder to perform but this next one is for my beautiful fiance Nova!"

I blush and Gee plops down beside me drinking a coffee.

"I call this one 'Still Falling'," I smile and he starts to play. " You'd think for all the days I've known you That I would have you memorized by now With Every question answered, Every single page turned But you keep me on the edge somehow."

I smile widely and stand closer to the edge of the stage and he turns to sing to me, "And every day with you is still a mystery With the sweetest story's falling from your lips I hold on to every word, Like it's the first one that I've heard It's the only time I've ever felt like this this."

I wave and he gives me a wink, "But after all this time, you'd think I'd be used to the pull of your gravity And after flying so high for so long, who would think I'm still learning, still burning, still falling', still falling' I still reach for your hand because I need it And your kiss is still the spark that lights a fire You're still laughing with me, And we're still making memories, I'm still a fool for you, and there's a million reasons why."

I blush as he plays for me, "After every late night street light drive Every love you miss you kiss goodnight Girl, your name is still my favorite Always will be and I'm still wanting, still all in, I'm still fallin' I'm still falling', Still chasin', still nervous, still reelin', still dreaming' about this."

I smile and mouth 'I love you' to Hunter as he plays. "And after every sunrise holding you, After all the crazy we've been through Every day and every minute girl it's something new, I'm still learning, still burning, yeah still wanting, still all-in, still fallin'. Still falling."

He smiles and sets the guitar on the stage and runs to me picking me up and kissing me deeply. I giggle when I pull away, "That was great."

He smiles, "Good let me take you out to dinner tonight."

"Why? Is it a special occasion? It's not our anniversary right? Fuck is it?" I panic a little.

"No no calm down," He rubs my back, "I just wanna take you out."

I nod and hug him before looking around, "everyone is staring."

"Come on let's go My Chemical Romance should be setting up." He says pulling me to the nearest exit.

Gerard's POV:

Isaac finishes setting up the stage and Mikey, Ray and Frank follow me out as Taylor S wishes us luck.

"So hello Killjoys! Just a warning this performance may get a little weird." I look back and see Frank wink at me and Ray nods and smiles at Mikey. I see Patrick claim the seat at the drums since Josh is out with Tyler and we don't have an actual drummer.

"f you now the song sing along!" I laugh and start saying Check as I wait for the intro from Frank and Ray. "Don't believe what they say, We're dead flies in the summertime They leave us all behind With duct tape scars on my honey They don't like who you are You won't like where we'll go Brother, protect me now With blood they wash in the money! You don't believe in God I don't believe in luck They don't believe in us But I believe we're the enemy! You don't believe in God I don't believe in luck They don't believe in us But I believe we're the enemy!"

Frank starts jumping around the stage and I move to grab him so we can share the mic. "Uh Uh Uh UhUh Uh UhUh UhUh Uh UhUh RIGHT NOW."

I watch Mikey turn to face the drummer as he plays and Ray kisses his cheek.

"I'm sick down from the bones to the other side Red-mob, we insects hide King rat on the streets in another life They laugh, we don't think it's funny If what you are Is just what you own What have you become When they take from you ALMOST EVERYTHING!"

Frank starts jumping and head banging with Ray as Mikey comes up towards me.

We all laugh and play a few more songs with a minimal amount of kissing.

Hunter's POV:

I decided to take Nova to one of the nice Italian restaurants with candles and fairy lights. We are led to a table and lucky for me I used my famous name to get us a table without a reservation. The host leads us to a small table with candles and we take our seats. "Ooh shots," Nova laughs.

I laugh, "I think there is a bar here if you want."

"No I was joking," she responds with a smile. I nod and we both look at the menu, "Why are all these things I can't pronounce?"

"It's italian." I smile, "It was this or cajun and well I can cook cajun anytime."

"uhhhhhh do they just have spaghetti?"

I nod and smile, "Yes they do."

"Okay," she nods.

"What do you want to drink? Maybe a wine? I have a fake ID on me."

She smiles, "I will take a lemonade."

Once the waiter comes over I order our food. I know that Nova is swinging her feet under the table as she looks around, "This place is really fancy."

I smile, "I always told my friends that I would take a girl here just to propose.." I laugh a bit.

She laughs a little "welp too late for that."

I smile, "Yeah i guess that's right."

She nods and I hold her hand as she draws shapes on my hands.

It took about 20 minutes of small talk the waiter finally brings our food. "This looks good."

She nods and we eat and chat.

*The Next Night*

I manage to sneak in on Nova dancing flinging her hair about on the bus, "Hot moves baby."

She jumps and stops what she is doing, "when did you get here and did you put the words hot and baby into the same sentence?"

I laugh a bit, "Just for a minute and yeah I am trying to use different words in my vocabulary."

She wrinkles her nose "Ew. Who are you and what have you done to my sweet country boy Hunter."

I laugh, "Sorry Nova."

She fake pouts and I blush a little. "Why are you blushing?"

"I tried to be cool and failed miserably." I say covering my face and laughing.

She laughs "I know, you're such a dork."

I nod, "Yeah I am."

"I love you though, and as much as I love you go away so I can dance." She says with a giggle trying to push me out of the living area.

"Nova we share a bus.."

"Well then go into a different room I don't know! Go into our bunk." She says.

I walk towards are bunk and grab my phone off the table, "Have fun."

I lay down and I hear the music when suddenly my song comes on. 'I want Crazy' is playing and I know Nova is dancing so I peek out and record about a minute of it before posting it.

When the song ends she turns it down and I hear her phone chirp, a second later she shouts my name angrily.

I laugh, "Sorry I couldn't help it."

She walks back to the bunk and plops down on the floor pouting, "I hate you."

"you have posted horrible pics of me loads of times." I point out.

"Yeah but.." she then looks up at me the way Emma does.

"I am sorry and I will take it down."

"You don't have too," she says still pouting.

"I will if you want me too."

"Nooooo it's okayyyyy" She sighs, "I just need cuddles in payment"

I smile, "Climb in."

She climbs in and curls up in my side, ""I hadn't actually watched the full video yet, will you show it to me?"

"All you missed was what I said at the end about how great it is to know your fiance will dance like this to a song that you wrote about her."

"Okay," She smiles and I wrap my arms around her.
