Unexpected Love

Mikey, Why Are You Raping That Bass With You're Eyes?

We hangout at the mall a little bit longer, and then we all went to Frank's house. Well, garage. He and Ray were jamming and I chatted with Gerard and Mikey. But it was mainly Gerard, seeing as Mikey was staring at the bass on the far side of the garage. Did he play too?

"Sorry to interrupt Gerard but, Mikey, do you play?" I said

"Um, no." he said and had a quick glance at me, and then returned his gaze to the bass.

"So the big bad boy Gerard Way can sing?" I asked with a giggle

"I used to be able to sing. I don't know about now. It's been ages" he said

"Why not find out?" I asked

"Nah, I'll just make a fool of myself in front of a hot girl" he said

Frank shot him a death stare.

"Easy babe" I said to frank.

He went back to play with Ray.

A blonde guy walked in and completely ignored me and walked over to behind the drums and started playing.

"That's bob, don't mind him. He's just in a mood. He's normally really cool" Ray said

I just nodded and turned my head back to Gerard.

"Please try? For me" I said with a smile and batted my eye lids.

"Fine" he said with a sigh.

"Frank, you got a mic?" he asked

"Yeah dude, over there" he said pointing to beside the bass Mikey was raping with his eyes.

Gerard pulled it into an amp, and just stood there for a minute, thinking.

He looked good up there, like, a natural. Now the question is... can he sing.

They were whispering, and then Frank turned to me "Whatcha wanna hear babe?" he asked

"I dunno, something new, something 2001, and really cool" I said

Gerard smiled

They started playing "In Too Deep" by Sum 41

I loved that song!

Gerard starting singing.

"The faster we're falling, we're stopping and stalling, we're running in circles again. Just as things were looking up you said it wasn't good enough."

I didn't bother listening to the rest, seeing as I was starstruck by Gerard's voice.

He was amazing. I literally was blown away by his voice.

Mikey flung his cell out. "Gran, listen!" he screamed, holding his phone out towards Gerard.

"Is that Gerard singing again?" she asked in a little old lady voice

"Yeah gran! He's singing" he said

Wow, thats the most he's said since I met him. Let alone this enthusiastic.

He hung up on his grandma and jumped up and hugged me. "Thank you Julia!!! Thank you sooo much!!!!! He needed this!!" he said

"Haha, hes really good mikes. They all are! You should play bass!" I said

He let go of me and sat down quickly.

"nah" he said quietly.

Shit, I shut him down.

Frank. My Frank. Was amazing on guitar. Don't get me wrong, Ray seemed epic, but Frank, to look at him, he looks like he plays his heart out every second.

Frankie was adorable. I was falling for him big time.

They all stopped and smiled at me.

"What did you think? I'm Bob, by the way" the drummer said

"I'm Julia, and I loved it! You guys were great! Are you guys like a band?" I asked

Franks face lit up.

"No. Strictly a one time thing. I don't sing anymore. They just jam" Gerard said.

Frank looked a bit hurt. Poor babe.
