"Fuck yeah!" I scream as we make our way to the car. This is gonna be sweet. I actually convinced Gerard to go to the zoo with me! I mean, I've had a crush on him since I first met him so this will be great, I hope.

As expected, Gerard was wearing all black, Nirvana tee and black jeans. I was wearing an Anthrax tee so i couldn't be mad. We got into my Jeep and started on our hour long journey to the zoo.

"Hey Bee," said Gerard.
"Yeah," I said.
"This is gonna be kinda embarrassing but I get anxiety at zoos."
"It's ok Gerard, I'll be here for you." I winked at him and he blushed. Oh my gawd. He is so adorable when he blushes. New life goal: Make Gerard Way blush at all times.

We talked about bands and stuff and I made him blush more. He was so cute. We finally made it to the zoo. We got out and I payed for his ticket. He blushed again and thanked me. We went in and he decided that we should go see the monkies. We walked over and one of the animals was getting a shot. Gerard looked over, saw the needle, broke down and ran towards the bathroom. I always knew he was afraid of needles but I didn't think it was this bad. I chased after him aND found him on the floor of a stall. He looked up at me me with tears in his eyes. I sat next to him.

"Dont worry, Gee, it's all gonna be ok" I scooted closer and he cried into myshoulder. I grabbed him and cradled him on my lap.

He looked at me with teary eyes. "Thank you" he said with a shaky voice.

"Anything for you, Gee" I said and kissed his forehead. He blushed and said what I could never imagine him saying.

"I like you, Billie." He looked at me with sincere eyes and all I could do was smile like an American Idiot.

"I've wanted to say that since I'd met you, let's just say I have stage 4 Fear of trying."

We stayed there for a while, just him laying in my lap. I held him close a d twirled his hair and he had his arms wrapped tight around me. It was silent. Not an akward silence, but a comfortable silence when you can only hear each others breathing. "Hey, Gee," I said and broke the silence, "would you be my boyfriend?"

"I'd love to. I've always wanted to. I just so used to wanting what I can't have."

"Well, I'm here to fix that" I cupped his cheeks in my hands and kissed. Without a doubt, we were gonna be singled out, but it's the only way I know
