At first sight

chapter 7

After our date, Gerard walked me home, we hugged, and kissed good bye, then he left. I smiled to myself for the rest of the night....

****************************

two months later, December 23....

Gerard and I have been dating for two months now. We're taking things slow, but I really think I love him. He saved me from getting raped and possibly killed for fucks sake! That's the most bravest, and sweetest things anyone could ever do for me, of course when I fell for him, especially when I saw those beautiful eyes of his, and that cute smile, and his flaming red hair. He has a great personality too, he has made me laugh so much, to the point my stomach and face hurts. I feel wanted and loved sense ive been with him. it's only been two months into our relationship and he has already done a lot for me, last month, he surprised me by bringing in new furniture for me that he bought, I was so happy, I couldn't stop smiling. I hugged him and kissed him non stop making him smile and blush and laugh like crazy.

We'd been in my living room cuddling on the couch.

Gerard: I want you to meet my family....and I want to spend Christmas with you..

Rose: Really?

Gerard: yes, I have a feeling that they're gonna like you- no- they're gonna love you, because I love you.

He kisses my forehead and brings me closer to him, I was getting nervous because he wanted me to meet his family. That's a big step in a relationship, theres a lot of impressing to do, and make sure you don't say the wrong things or mess up. I'm not sure if I wanted to meet his family or not. I mean what if they didn't like me? What if they think I'm bad for Gerard?

Gerard: we should finish our Christmas shopping. We'll finish tomorrow before we leave. we're going to stay at my mother's house for a few days okay?

Rose: ....I'm not sure if I want to meet them just yet, G.

Gerard: why not?

Rose: This is a really big step...what if they don't like me, or if I don't impress them or-

Gerard puts his finger on my lips and shush me.

Gerard: They're going to love you..

He assured me, and brings me into a tight hug.

The next morning we'd been shopping, we went our separate ways in the mall and met each other when we bought what we had to get, then we went back to my place to pack up our clothes. We threw our luggage in his car and off we went.

During the whole ride I was shaking, not because I was cold, but because I was super nervous to meet his family. I lit a cigarette to calm my.nerves, he grabbed my free hand, and smiled, still staring at the road.

I grinned to myself. We finally parked in front of a house. It looked kinda old on the outside. Gerard got out and helped me out the car, and grabbed our luggage, we walked on the porch, opened the door and let me go in first, coming in after me, putting down the luggage.

Gerard: mommm?!?!

A beautiful woman came walking towards us, when she sees G, she immediately screams in.excitement and hugs and kisses him. They looked beautiful, I smiled to myself.

Gerard: This is my girlfriend, Rose. Rose, this is my mother, Donna.

Rose: Nice to meet you.

I flash a smile, she immediately brings me into a big hug and whispers "I've been waiting for this day," I didn't know what she meant by that, but I didn't bother to ask and went along.

Donna: it is nice to know my son found someone decent and makes him happy.

Gerard: where's dad?

Donna: he has a migraine, so he's taking a nap. Go on and show Rose around, I have to finish wrapping the gifts up.

G grabs our luggage and leads me upstairs, he shows me around then takes us to our room, I sit on the bed as he closes the door, then he drops the luggage and rushes to me and crash his lips on mine, he then climbs on top of me. He caresses my body and puts his hand up my shirt, he slides his tongue in my mouth, then we hear a knock on the door, he stops and gets off of me. I fix my clothes. He opens a door and a handsome young man with blond hair was in the door way.

Gerard: Mikey!!!

He hugs him for a few seconds that seemed like forever, they break the hug and smiles.

Gerard: Rose, this is my brother, Mikey. Mikey, this is my girlfriend, Rose.

Rose: Hello. -smiles-

Mikey: Nice to meet you. Hey, G, mom wants you and I to help put some dishes away.

Gerard: okay I'll be down in a minute.

Mikey nodded his head and left, Gerard turns to look at me.

Gerard: I'm not done with you...

He then leaves. What did he mean by that? I shrug it off and look around the room. There were paintings laying on the floor, I sat down and looked at them, they all were extraordinary, some were just splashes of.color but they were still cool, I wondered where theyd get their art from. 

There was also a sketchbook lying on the floor, I picked it up and blew the dust off, I opened it and was impressed by the sketches in it. I put the book on the night stand and headed downstairs. Donald, Gerards father was in the living room. We greeted each other and talked for a minute or two.

Later that night at dinner, we laughed together and talked about how gerard and mikey when they were little. I felt like I was a part of them. I never had much of a bond with any of my family except my uncle and grandmother. After dinner, Gerard and I went back to the room he saw the sketch book on the night stand, he picked it up and stared at it.

Rose: It was on the floor over there, I looked through it. Whoever drew those is very talented.

Gerard smiled.

Gerard: These are mine. And so are those paintings.

Rose: G...they're great, you have a special talent!

Gerard: Thanks, I want to be in the comic book industry.

Rose: Then go for it!

He just smiled and sat on the bed,.pulling me on top.

Gerard: I told you I wasn't finished with you...

He gets on top of me again and kisses me deeply, I wrap my arms around his neck, he slides his hands up and down my body. He plants kisses on my neck and chest, but I stop him before he goes any further.

Rose: No, not yet....I'm sorry,G. I just can't-

Gerard: shhh....you don't need to explain, just say no and I'll stop. I'm gonna go take a shower.

He kisses my forehead, grabs some clothes and leaves the room.
