Story Of My Life (Book Three in the Peterick Mpreg Series)

Royals (Emily's POV)

Well, I just found out that my dad is expecting again. It's actually kind of cool! Imagine when Jaimee finds out! Oh god. She'll be bouncing off the walls from excitement. Anyway, after that, we finished the two more songs we had to do and then we were done rehearsing. It was around seven right now, so we had about an hour until showtime. I was getting nervous already, but I tried not to let it show.

"Hey," I texted Gerard.

"Hey beautiful. How are you doing?" Gerard replied.

"I'm doing ok, I'm getting nervous already though. We just just finished rehearsing and guess what!" I sent.

"Aww :( and what?!" he asked.

"Patrick told all of us that he's expecting again," I replied.

"Aww really? I'm so happy for you guys!" Gerard said.

"Thanks, I'll be sure to tell Patrick and Pete that!" I replied.

"How was rehearsal?" he asked.

"Not bad actually, and can I do what we talk about now?" I asked.

"You singing for me?" he asked.

"Yeah," I replied.

"Sure, here. Let me call you," he said.

I took a deep breath and then waited for my phone to ring. Once it rang, I waited for a second, then held it up to my ear.

"Hey," I said as I smiled.

"There's that beautiful voice! This is definitely better than texting," Gerard said, which made me smile more.

"I agree," I said as I chuckled and walked into Fall Out Boy's dressing room.

I sat on one of the chairs and stretched. I was glad the guys were talking to Charlie and a bunch of other people, so they hopefully wouldn't walk in on me and Gerard talking.

"So what are you going to sing for me tonight?" he asked.

"What do you want me to sing?" I asked.

"What was your favorite song you rehearsed today?" he asked.

"Um, probably Forest, but I can't sing all of it," I said.

"Sing what you can," he said.

"Alright," I said.

"And take your time too, my dear," Gerard said, which made me blush.

"I'm not going to start from the first verse though, is that ok?" I asked.

"I scream, you scream, we all scream 'cause we're terrified of what's around the corner! We stay in place 'cause we don't want to lose our lives. So let's think of something better. Down in the forest, we'll sing a chorus! One that everybody knows! Hands held higher, we'll be on fire! Singing songs that nobody wrote!" I sang as raw and loosely as I could, hopefully making it sound good.

I waited for a minute or two, but Gerard never said anything. I was getting really nervous and scared. God, I probably sounded terrible.

"U-Uh, Gerard?" I asked.

"Em, that was amazing," he said finally. "Hey, where are you right now?"

"In Fall Out Boy's dressing room, why? And thanks by the way," I said.

"Open the door," he said.

I made a weird face, then hesitantly got up and went to the door. I slowly opened it and I saw someone standing there.

"G-Gerard?" I asked in complete disbelief.

He just put his phone down and walked towards me. He looked at me with his big eyes and I suddenly felt his soft lips on mine...
