At first sight

Chapter 20

The next day, we met a guy named Tony at his office in Reprise Records. We all sat down and talked for a little bit, telling him about us and what not. Eventually we got to business and got serious. Hours later we were signed to Reprise Records, which sounds awfully familiar to me. When we got home we celebrated by drinking a shit ton liquor and dancing. 

About a week later, we started recording in the studio, before you know it, we had a hit song on the radio, we found ourselves calling ourselves Rock stars, or rock goddesses. I mean that's what people were calling us anyway. The photo shoots and music videos were fun to do. Our first album was a hit too, we all moved into our separate houses in LA but still went to each other's house and stayed for a couple of days.

Months go by, and I'm sitting at home, smoking my last cigarette...ever. I was quitting. I turned on the tv and turned to MTV, our music was just going off. I took a puff from my cigarette, then came on MCR's video for "I'm not okay (I promise)" I rolled my eyes turned off the tv. I was starting to get over Gerard. I realized that if he really loved me, he would've stayed like Brook did. I took my last puff of my cigarette and threw it out the window. My house phone began to ring, I answered without looking at the caller id.

Tony: Hey, I'm having a party tonight and you and the girls are invited, I already called them. It's a 9:00.

Rose: okay, is there a dress code for this?

Tony: Nope.

Rose: What's the special occasion?

Tony: Nothing, just bored haha, see ya.

I giggled and hung up. I looked at my.clock it was 8:30, I hopped in the shower, and then afterwards, I searched through my closet for an outfit. I changed into some black skinny jeans, which had some rips in them, and a black crop top that kinda showed my belly button, the shirt had a skull and cross bones on the front, and I slid on my black boots that stopped at mid calf, I tied them up tight, and put on my cross necklace and a bunch of bracelets, and my hoop ear rings. I straighten my now cotton candy blue hair, and did my make up, and sprayed on my vanilla scented perfume. I looked at my clock, it was 9:30 already! I was late. I hopped in my benz and drove to Tony's mansion. Music blasting evem from the outside. I entered the door and saw hundreds of people dancing and drinking. I spotted the girls in the living room, we hugged and talked for a little bit and danced together. Tony came by and greeted us.

Tony: Having fun, girls?

Bekky: Hell yeah!

Jamie: This party is the bomb!

Brook: We ran out of beer...

Tony: Damn it. Hey, Rose, upstairs in my bedroom is another pack of beer,.could you be a doll and get it?

Rose: You keep beer in your bedroom?

Tony: Yeah I have a fridge in there.

I giggled and went on to finish my mission. It's my first time in his house so I didn't know where his stairs, as I was searching for his stairs, heart gets stuck in my throat as I see what I hadn't seen in forever.

Frank.

Mikey.

Ray.

Bob.

And...

Gerard. And they were standing in front of the stairs. Frank saw me, his eyes grew big and he tapped on Gee's shoulder and pointed at me, they all stared at me, as if they'd seen a ghost, well they probably think I am one since they thought I was dead. I turned to walk away, I heard Gerard call my name, I look over my shoulder he was walking after me, I ran.

I accidentally ran into Bekky, tears forming in my eyes. She asked what was wrong but I didn't answer. I immediately said sorry and headed for the door, and digging for my keys, I stop at my car, Gerard runs outside, he sees me opening my car door, hurry in and start my car, I.could see him racing after my car as I drive off. After I got home I just stood in the middle of the living room, with my hands on either side of my head, trying to hold back the tears that I hadn't cried in months.

Seeing him had killed me. He had bags under his eyes, and his hair was messy, but he still looked adorable. There was a knock on my door, I opened it, was the girls, and behind them...was My Chem.

I quickly grabbed the girls and slammed the door in the guys faces.

One of them knocked.

Rose: Why are they here?

Jamie: oh my god, they are so nice. The guys came up to us and started flirting with us, and the lead singer umm...

Bekky: Gerard.

Jamie: Yeah, Gerard said that you looked familiar and they wanted to hang with all of us, so we brought them here.

Rose: Big fucking mistake!!!

Jamie: why?

Brook: um, they didn't know, should I tell them?

Bekky: Tell us what?

They knocked again.

Rose: Later, after the guys leave.

I opened the door and straightened my act, smiling, arms wide open for a hug.

Rose: Guys, long time no see!!

Bekky&Jamie: what...oh well...later.

I hugged one after one, then when Gerard came up for a hug I was hesitant. We stared at each others eyes. It felt like time had slowed down, my stomach began tie in knots, my arms and legs got weak, but I hugged him anyway that seemed like it lasted forever. I fell in love with him again. Like when we first met.

Love at first sight.
