Queen of Hearts

Lindsey

'I cant believe Lindsey liked our performance' Gerard thinks, yanking the warm blankets over himself.

"How'd it go tonight?" Mikey asks through the phone.

"Good."

"Thats awesome bro."

"Yeah. Well, you should get some sleep."

"Alright. Congrats. See you soon."

"Yeah. Bye."

                    -----------------------

"You guys head to class."

"You sure?" Ray asks.

"Yeah."

"Alright." So Ray is now dragging Frank by the jacket to class.

"Well well well if it isnt our neighborhood weirdo."

"Fucking hell.." Gerard mutters, jumping slightly when Bert slams his hand into the locker next to him.

"What did you say..?"

"None of your business what I said." Gerard gets punched in the nose, and kneed in the stomach, then uses his arms to hide his face when Bert is about to punch him again.

But it doesnt happen.

The raven haired boy slowly uncovers his face to see Lindsey standing there, glaring at a pained Bert.

"Are you ok?!" She asks, turning her gaze to Gerard.

"Yep, Im fine." Gerard says getting up painfully.

"Are you sure?"

"Yep."

"If you say so.. Well.." The raven haired girl starts. "Im Lindsey."

"I know- I mean.. cool I'm Gerard."

"I know." Lindsey giggles. "You've been reading the notes."

"I what?" Gerard asks.

"The notes I leave for you."

"Oh. Those. Yeah. Seriously though.. how did you do that. Like.. that kid is MASSIVE!"

"Its easy. Dont fully straighten your arm, and put a shit load of emotion into it." Lindsey smiles.

"Got it. Is it fair if I dig my thumbs into his eyes."

"Yeah. Id say its fair."

"Ok. Well uh.. thanks."

"No problem."

"You did really awesome at the talent show thing by the way." Gerard says.

"Really? Probably not as good as you and your band though like that was awesome. By far my favorite performance ever." Lindsey smiles.

"Wow. Thanks."

"So you've met Jimmy huh."

"Uh.. y-yeah why.."

"He said you were pretty cool. Just.. in general."

"Oh. Right. Yeah I kinda mistook him for Bert at first so that was kind of uh.. awkward." Gerard says, scratching his neck in some attempt to lessen the amount of.. well.. awkwardness that was in the air.

"Anyway, we're having a party tonight, Jimmy, Kitty Steve and I. Its gonna be at Kitty's so if you wanna be there that'd be awesome. We all think you're like.. really cool."

"I would but I uh.. dont have her address." Gerard says.

"Oh. Well.. I'll give you my number so you can call me whenever you want ti head over there." Lindsey smiles.

"I uh- you- what?"

"I'll give you my number so that you can tell me when to pick you up."

"Oh uh.. sure." Lindsey then grabs Gerard's arm, writing her phome number on it with sharpie.

"Make sure it doesn't wash off."

"Uh.. ok." Gerard says, watching as Lindsey heads to class.
