Evermore- Phan

Chapter 12

Phil's P.O.V:

We spent basically the entire day at the mall with Gerard and his brother Mikey who was wearing a camo singlet. Gerard and Dan were trying to out-sass each other the entire day which was pretty funny. Mikey is super cool and as Dan and Gerard were fighting over whether Pierce The Veil or Black Veil Brides was better, Mikey and I started talking. We got along really well and he's super funny. Then, I turned to Dan and Gerard. "Hey guys, do you want to get some food?" I asked. "Yeah sure Philly." Dan said, turning away from Gerard. "Yeah alright." Gerard said. The four of us stood up and walked over to MacDonald's.

"What do you want?" Dan asked us. "You don't have to pay for us!" Gerard replied, pulling his wallet from his back pocket. "You bought my boyfriend a new shirt, you said it's your birthday, you broke up with your own boyfriend, I'll buy lunch for all of us." Dan said. "You broke up with Frank?" Mikey turned to Gerard stunned. "Yeah. He was being an asshole and beat up Phil." Gerard replied. "Gee! Why didn't you tell me I could have beaten up the little shit!" Mikey whined. "I'm your older brother. I don't have to tell you. Plus, Dan already did it." Gerard replied. "Fair enough." Mikey said, giving Dan a high five.

"Now, what do you want to eat?" Dan asked. We all placed our orders and Gerard slipped me a twenty pound note. "Give it to him." he whispered, nodding his red hair at Dan as he and Mikey sat down. I made an 'OK' sign with my free hand and walked up to Dan who had just received his receipt. "I found twenty pounds on the ground. Want it?" I asked, holding the money out to him. "No, it's okay." Dan smiled. "Take the money Dan. As a 'thank you' present for today." I insisted. "You're gonna keep pestering me until I take the money aren't you?" Dan said. "Yep!" I grinned. "Phil!" he whined as we collected our trays and carried them over to Mikey and Gerard. "Did he take it?" Gerard whispered to me as we sat down and retrieved our food. "No. I'm trying though." I whispered back as Dan handed me my drink.

"Damn.. give it here. I'll try and get him to take it." Gerard said, stealing two of my fries. I stole two of his back and passed him the money under the table and we grinned at each other evilly. "What are you two smirking about?" Mikey asked, taking a bite out of his burger. "Nothing. We were just talking about your poker face." Gerard said, eating more fries. "What about my face? It's a beautiful face!" Mikey said. "I was just telling Phil about how you got your poker face. About how when we were babies you had a soft spot which I used to poke and then one day I poked you and your face scrunched up and turned into your poker face which you still have." Gerard said triumphantly. Dan started laughing. So did I. If looks could kill, Gee would be six feet under.

We laughed for a while and kept talking about random stuff until our food was gone. We put out rubbish in the bin and headed to Hot Topic again. Mikey and Dan dived for the Muse section while Gerard went to look at comics and I just stood there, a little pastel kid in a shop of darkness. Then, a song came over the store's PA. It was Panic! At The Disco's Nine In The Afternoon. I looked at Dan, a huge grin on my face. Dan and Mikey shot me a look saying, 'Don't. You. Dare.' I started dancing and Gerard walked over, saw me dancing and started dancing too. "I don't know you people." Dan muttered as we danced like morons through the store. "Yes you do!" Gerard said. The song ended and I saw a curly-haired boy staring at Gerard's ass. While yes, it is an adorable ass, I couldn't understand why this boy seemed so fixated on my friend's butt

"Hey Gee..." I said. "Yeah?" he asked, holding up a Black Veil Brides shirt. "That guy is staring at your butt." I whispered. "So? It's my ass. If people wanna look at it, who am I to stop people looking at it?" Gerard said, picking up a comic book and flicking through its pages. "Yeah but he's cute." I said. That made Gerard spin around. The boy immediately dropped his gaze and went back to looking at his book. Gerard walked up. "Hi." he said. "H-hi!" the boy replied. "That a good comic?" Gerard asked. "Yeah. You're pretty good- I mean- you're pretty- I mean- it's a good comic!" the boy blushed. "Thanks." Gerard said blushing. "What's your name?" Gerard asked. "It's Ray." he said. "I'm Gerard." Gee replied. "Hi Gerard." Ray smiled. "You're cute too. Don't worry." Gerard said. Ray relaxed a little and Gerard grinned.

Mikey's P.O.V:  (Yikes)

I saw my older brother, standing there, talking to a guy with a fluffy ass afro. Gerard was playing with his long, red hair, a sign I'd seen when he first met Frank. He tended to fiddle with his hair when he likes someone. I nudged Dan in the ribs and pointed at the guys. He grinned and we looked at each other. "Should we go tell this kid that he's single?" I asked. "Is an emo's best friend eyeliner?" Dan asked and we walked over. "Hey big brother! How's it going?" I asked. "Miiikkkeeey! I'm talking to Ray!" Gerard whined. "Hi Ray." I said. Dan made an excuse about wanting to show Phil some cute pastel earrings and left. "Hey Gee, I thought I saw some comics that look like the ones you sent to that publisher over there." I said. If Gerard was a dog, his ears would be standing straight up. "

Sorry Ray, I have to see if those comics are there. I'll be right back!" Gerard promised and bolted to the comic section. "He's just broken up with his boyfriend.  He's taking it quite well but I can see that he really likes you. Gee's my big brother, I know when he likes someone. Did you see how he was playing with his hair? That's a sign he likes you." I said to Ray. He perked up a bit. "Really?" he asked. "Yeah. Hey, you play guitar by any chance?" I asked. "Yeah I do." Ray replied. "Cool. I play bass and Gerard sings. We've got a few songs but we could really use another guitarist." I said. "Okay. What's the band called?" Ray asked as Gerard walked back around the corner. Out the corner of my eye I could see two very tall friends watching from the next shelf.

"What band?" Gee asked. "Our band." I said. "Oh that band. We're called My Chemical Romance." Gerard said. "Okay cool. Got a piece of paper I can write my number on so I can call you later?" Ray asked, directing the question at Gerard. "Paper? No but I have my phone. Here." Gerard said, passing him the phone. I winked at Dan and Phil and leaned over to Gee. "This is the voice of your conscious... just  kiss him." I whispered, just loud enough for him to hear me but not Ray who was busy typing his number into Gerard's phone. Gerard swatted me away but looked thoughtful at what I had said.

Dan's P.O.V:

Phil and I watched as Mikey whispered something into Gerard's ear and left him and Ray. Mikey ran around the aisle and stood next to me. We watched in anticipation as Ray handed Gerard's phone back to him and Gee stood, there contemplating the next move. "Call you tonight?" Ray asked. "Yeah sure." Gerard said. "Okay cool, super excited to work with yo-" Ray was cut off as Gerard pushed his lips against Ray's. Ray was a bit taken aback but quickly kissed back and Gerard pulled away after a few seconds. "I-I-I gotta go." he said blushing madly and ran out of the shops. The three of us ran after him and we found him just outside of the shopping centre, crying. "Gee!" Phil said and ran over to him. "What's wrong?" Phil asked, wrapping his arms around Gerard's shaking frame. "I-I-I messed up Phil." Gerard said in between sobs. "No you didn't." Mikey said, sitting down beside his brother. "Yes I did! We had the chance to get a good guitarist and I've blown the whole thing!" Gerard said, looking up at us.

His eyeliner was a little smudged. It was pretty good waterproofing. I had to admit. I sat down in front of him and tapped his leg. "Hey, look at me. You didn't mess up, no way! We saw Ray's face, he kissed back! He loves you Gee." I said, as Phil pulled a tissue out of his pocket and handed it to Gerard. "Thanks Phil." Gerard said, wiping away the smudges and the tears. "Look Gee. You didn't mess up. You're my big brother and I've always looked up to you. Every downfall was just a rookie mistake. You have to learn some things through experience." Mikey said, hugging him. "T-th-thanks guys." Gerard said as we hauled him off. He brushed off his ass and looked at us.

"Can we get a lift home from you guys?" Mikey asked. "Yeah sure!" I said. We walked over to my car and the guys jumped in. I started the car and we drove off, Gerard giving directions to the hotel he and Mikey were staying at. "Thanks for everything guys." Gerard said as he and Mikey climbed out of the car. "No problem. See you soon hey?" I said. "Yeah... see you soon." Mikey grinned. Phil and I headed home, our Hot Topic bags on the backseat. "Thanks Dan." Phil said. "It's okay. Anything for my boyfriend." I smiled, parking the car in the driveway. Phil grinned and undid his seatbelt. I undid mine and turned to face Phil. He launched himself at me and before I could react, kissed me passionately. We made out in the car for about 5 minutes until Phil pulled away. "I love you Danny." he said breathlessly. "I love you too Philly." I said, just as able to breathe as he was.

Sorry it wasn't very accurate on Mikey or Gerard guys. My writer's block has been really bad in the past couple of days and I thought I'd give you an extra long chapter. This one is about 1800 words.... yikes that's a lot of words. Thanks for reading and voting guys.
