I was getting dressed when Matt knocked on my door, "sweetie you look beautiful. Where are you going?" Matthew had come back last night, we got into a fight when Zacky told him how I was rarely home. He accused me of sleeping around on him, leading him to push me hard against the wall.

"Gerard's taking me out for my birthday."

He came behind me, moving his hands around my waist and kissing my neck. "How about you stay home and I'll make this a birthday you'll never forget." I moved away from him, his face changed to hatred again.

"I have to go, if I don't show up at his house he'll come here." Matt started to walk closer to me, I was against the wall, waiting for his hit.

His eyes looked me up and down taking in my appearance. "You look like a slut." Then he just left, I heard him go into his own room. I let out a breath that was built up from fear. I closed my bedroom door and looked into the mirror that was on the back. Did I look like a slut?

Gerard said the place was fancy and to wear something nice. Since I only had one dress and he's seen me in it already I went out and bought a new one. This dress was black, it was long sleeved with blue designs on it. Underneath the black was a second layer the same color blue. I told Gerard what I was wearing and he said it sounded beautiful.

I didn't think it was that short, it went right to my knees. Oh well, time to go. Tonight was special so I even added a little makeup. I stopped at Matt's door before leaving, he was on his bed staring at the ceiling. "Matthew, I'm leaving now. I'll be home by eleven, that okay?"

"Fine." I felt bad about leaving him but Gerard had this planned for awhile. Besides today is my birthday and I want to spend time with Gee. While in the elevator I looked at my shoes, black and white converse. Hoped Gerard wouldn't mind, it went with the dress.

I decided to walk to Gerard's house, it was only a few miles. When I got to the house I took a moment before knocking. It had only been a day with me being fire but it felt like a lifetime. Finally I knocked on the door, Gerard answered. He was wearing a nice black shirt with a blue tie, it matched my blue perfectly. He was also wearing nice black jeans, black and white converse too.

"Shy, you.....you look amazing." I felt my face get red as I started to blush. "Want to come in and say hi to Bandit, she misses you already."

"I probably shouldn't, Lindsey wouldn't like to see me."

"She's gone for the weekend, won't be back until Sunday night. So tonight and tomorrow it's okay with me."

I followed him inside and into the living room where Bandit and Mikey were playing Candyland. "B" looked up and saw me, her face was priceless. "Shiloh!" She ran and practically jumped into my arms.

"Hey Shy."

"Hi Mikey." Bandit wouldn't let me go, "Bandit, I have to go with your dad. I'll come see you again, okay?"

"Okay!" She kissed me goodbye and hopped down, going to back to Mikey and Candyland. "Bye daddy! Bye Shiloh!"

"Bye pumpkin, bed time at nine. Don't give Uncle Mikey any trouble." Gerard took my arm and led me out to his car. "You really look amazing." He was such a gentleman. Opened my car door, helped me in and shut it for me.

"So where are we going?"

"It's a surprise, which means you need this." Gerard placed a blindfold over my eyes, it reminded me of when Matt did this. Except, I wasn't scared with Gerard. In fact, I felt completely safe, if he was leading me into the depths of Hell I would follow.

After driving for awhile I started to become bored, "Gee? Are we almost there? I'm bored." I heard him giggling.

"Yeah just about there, so impatient." Now I started to giggle, my phone started vibrating and I stopped. I knew it had to be Matthew, just what I needed right now. I felt the car come to a stop, my heart starting beating fast wondering what Gerard had planned.
