Hayley and I walked around a store, side by side, talking and laughing. The others were walking around in other spots.

"...ugh, Frank is just so sweet," She began, "He acts, so, tough around you guys. When we're alone..." I smiled, watching a sort of twinkle appear in her eyes, "...he just wants hugs..."

"Aww," I began, "Have you guys, kissed?"

"Not yet. We almost did, but then you guys were stalking us!" She cried.

"Don't blame me! It's Mikey's fault." She giggled as we began looking through a clearance rack.

"Sure sure..." I didn't have to gaze over to know she rolled her eyes, "How're you and Gerard doing?"

"Oh my god, that boy..." I began with a smile, "Sweetest mother fucker on the planet."

"What happened? Spill! Spill!"

"Alright alright!" I giggled, "He came over after school yesterday. Cause of the snow, my parents have been stuck at work, so we... we made dinner together."

"Aww..." Hayley cooed.

"Yeah, we just made some pasta. He was so cute, dancing around the kitchen with me. Then we watched a movie, he held me the whole time."

"That's so cute..." She gushed. After flipping through a few items, I gazed up to find punk boy looking through a stack of jeans. Oh Gerard...

"What're you-... oh..." She let out a short giggle, "I see..."

"Isn't he pretty?" I asked, watching him carefully pull a pair off of a display, "That boy just, does something to me..."

"No shit," She spoke. I finally looked over at my friend.

"Whatever..." We walked away from the clearance rack, now aimlessly wandering the small retail store.

"You think we'll have school tomorrow?" She asked, watching the light snowflakes fall through the front window.

"I dunno, maybe..." I said.

"Angel face..." I spun around to see Gerard standing there, empty handed, "I'm gonna go walk around. Wanna come?"

"Sure punk boy..." He took my hand as we walked out of the store, side by side. As the winter breeze blew, I leaned into his side for warmth. He kissed the top of my head, and rubbed his thumb against my hand.

"You're so pretty pumpkin..." He whispered.

"You're pretty too babe..." Gerard breathed a chuckle, now gazing at me. I gazed back and smiled.

"Oh sugar..." He murmured. I held a hand over my mouth as I blushed from the name. This only made him laugh.

"Angel face, don't hide..." He pulled my hand away, still chuckling, "C'mon, I wanna show you this store."

Suddenly, he broke away from me, keeping his hand in mine, as he ran. I was right behind him as he led me to wherever it was he wanted to go.

"C'mon angel face!" He exclaimed, glancing back at me.

"Whatta ya mean!? I'm right here!"

"You're too slow," He suddenly stopped, so I was forced to stop as well, "Here..."

"Punk boy, what're you-" And I was once again being held in his arms, "Ah! Punk boy..." I clung to him tightly. Before I could say another word, he went off running, "Ah!" I hid my face in his chest.

"Aww, angel face-" And then he slipped on a patch of ice, causing us both to fall. He landed on his back as I landed on top of him. Not in the, "oh my god kiss me" sort of way. No no. I fell so my body was across his.
