Losing a Winning Battle

35

Gerard's P.O.V
After the show we went out to eat at Mcdonalds. Each of us ordered, well except I ordered for Sylvia because she was too shy.

Bob: Caesar Salad, apple slices & coke.

Ray: 2 Big Macs, large fries, & an orange Hi-C 

Frank: 4 Cheese burgers, large fries, & iced coffee

Mikey: Spicy Ranch chicken wrap & Dr. Pepper

Sylvia:  10 piece chicken nuggets, large fry, & an oreo Mcflurry

Me:  three Artisan Grilled Chicken Sandwich & Strawberry smoothie

As we sat down to eat Sylvia started playing with her hair. "Why do you keep playing with your hair," I finally ask and take a large bite of my chicken sandwich.

"Dunno," She says and then mutters, "I'm thinking of re-dying it again."

Frank slurps his iced coffee and asks, "What colour?"

She hesitates, probably thinking of a color, and says, "red."  

Frank laughs and makes a frame with his fingers and looks through them towards Sylvia. She giggles and turns away. "I say go for it, it fits you," Frankie says.

As we were eating a group of girls walk over to us and one says, "can you sign my iphone case?"

 The boys all look at me and Sylvia squirms in her seat. "Uhh...? Sure," I say with a smile.

I pat my pockets trying to find my sharpie, since we've gotten famous I've learned to keep a sharpie with me at all times.

I look up sheepishly and ask, "do one of you lovely ladies happen to have a sharpie, I've seem to have lost mine." One of the girls starts to search her bag but comes up with nothing.

"Hmmm well, In a few minutes we're going to the drug store to buy this one hair dye, if you want to come we'll buy a sharpie to sign your case," Frank says ever the smart one.

The girls nod and we talk as we finish eating. We toss our trash and we walk down the street to the drug store. Sylvia walked quietly behind me eating her mcflurry, these girls kept trying to get next to me so Sylvia finally started walking slower and stayed behind us all. We get there and buy the sharpie and we all sign the girls phone cases and wallets. I glance around the store, Sylvia must've wandered off again. The girls we still here and they kept talking asking what we were doing for our next show tomorrow. These girls were actually kinda adorable, potential one night stands, maybe even relationship worthy. I feel a tug on my shirt and turn to see Sylvia looking up at me. She holds the box up next to her face.

"You like?" She asks in a sort of emotionless voice.

I look at the color she is holding, "Cherry Fire Red," and nod. "Niiiiice," I say and mess up her hair. We pay and say goodbye to the girls. We walk back to the tour bus and Sylvia walks into the bathroom and starts bleaching up her hair. The whole time we all chill out and make fun of Sylvia and the silly noises she makes as she tries to not get dye everywhere. When she steps out of the bathroom with her now red hair clipped up in a bun, she looked real cute....

A/n: the first image ((black & blue hair)) is Sylvia's original color from the first chapter til now. the second is Sylvia's new color. Also i dont own these pictures i got them off of google.
