G.way - im not always gunna be here

You and Gerard were walking through the corridors together trying to reach your locker. You and him weren't talking to much. Not because you had had a falling out or anything, purely because there was nothing to talk about.

Once you had arrived at your locker you thought of a subject to talk about.

"Relationships" you said aloud. Gee gave you a questioning look, enticing you to go on. "What's going on with you and that Chloe girl then?" You asked, slightly jealous as to the fact that you had a smidge of a crush on him.

"Nothing, which is disappointing." Gerard replied with a hint of annoyance. Rolling your eyes you opened your locker and took out the books you needed for next lesson.

"You know, it would help if you actually talked to her." You commented.

"Your right." And with that he left you at your locker alone as he headed to next lesson.

Walking over to your lunch table you noticed an extra person was sitting in your seat. With a confused expression, you walked over and tapped Mickey on the shoulder.

"Oh, hey (Y/N/N), we saved a space for you next to me and Frank." He said edging you to sit down. Once you sat down he turned to you and whispered in your ear, "we didn't want her to sit in your seat but Gerard persisted. She's an annoying basic bitch and I honestly don't know why he likes her." It was only when he said that, that you looked up and saw who it was.

Chloe.

"Mike, honestly don't worry there's nothing you can do, besides I don't think it would have been a good idea to get Gerard angry anyways." You replied back.

Something about Chloe made your blood boil and you knew something was 'off' with her.

~1 week later~

You knew that Chloe hated you. You could see it in the way she looked at you. Every opportunity she had she would make sure to put you down or insult you. For example the other day...

"I like your dress today" Gerard said to Chloe with a joyful smile.

"Thanks, I like to take pride in the way I look. Unlike some people." She added giving you a sly look out of the corner of her eye. Frank gave your hand a small squeeze as to reassure you that she was just trying to make you feel bad. She still succeeded though.

~1 month later~

Her hatred towards you had only gotten worse. Some days she would take Gerard to go to a separate table, away from the group. Others she just tried to make sure Gerard wouldn't pay any attention to the rest of the group, especially you. Some days it would be so unbearable that you pretended to be ill so your parents didn't send you in.

~7 years later~

"Gerard I don't know what you want me to say" you told the man as he sat on your couch sipping hot chocolate for the fourth time this week.

"Something, anything that makes me feel better about this situation." He answered with a hopeful look in his eye. Gerard and Chloe had been in another fight. This was so frequent that you had turned down arrangements purely because Gerard would need comforting again.

"So, tell me again, what exactly happened?" You asked, trying to think of something to say.

"Well I came home from band practice and saw she had a friend over, a guy friend at that and they seemed really close and cuddly so when I asked what was going on she said she was 'lonely' and that I 'was never there due to work' which is unfair because I'm  the one who is keeping a roof over her head. When I asked him to leave Chloe just said that 'it's rude to talk to our friends like that' but he's not even my friend I only know him because they met in the club we went to together on date night and even then he was trying the moves on her!" Gerard replied with aggression laced in his voice.

"Gerard I don't know why you don't just leave her, she's no good for you. There are 3.76billion other woman in the world to choose from and you choose her!" You retorted, questioning what Gerard sees in her.

"(Y/N), it's too complicated to just leave her-" Gerard started but you cut him off.

"Well you better uncomplicate It because I'm not always gunna be here to comfort you." You responded getting slightly mad.

"Fine, a good friend would have but your clearly not a good friend." Gerard stated raising his voice and standing up to head out. He was stopped as you grabbed his wrist.

"I'm sorry I just got mad because..." your voice started to fade away.

"Because..." Gerard edged you on to continue.

"Because...ihavehadacrushonyouforyearsandnevertoldyouandthatfactthatshenevertreatsyourightmakesmemadbecauseiknowicantreatyousomuchbetterthanshecan!" You said in one big breath.looking at the floor ashamed. You expected Gerard to get mad and walk away but instead he did something you could only ever have dreamed of happening.

His fingers lifted to your chin and made you look at him in the eyes. His head got closer to yours as he asked, "why didn't you tell me sooner?"

"I was scared" was all you could say before Gerard placed his soft lips gently on yours. It was magical. It only lasted a couple of seconds before he pulled away and said.

"I think I just made it uncomplicated".
