Gerard hesitated then finally spoke "hi danny" she nodded smiling that he acknowledged her he didn't exactly knew what to do when he just had a one sided conversation with someone he stared at the moon this time which made his blood run cold.
He spoke again "ya know frank right?" He took a drag from his cigarette, and puffed out again she nodded and he looked at her for once in his life he found something beautiful again he was wondrous how frank got so lucky to get her he shook his thoughts from his head and shoved his nub of a cigarette to the ground squishing it into the cement.
She now looked at him confusion evident on her pale face her eyebrows furrowed and staring curiously towards Gerard, he became uncomfortable under her gaze anyone who'd stared at him in that specific way wanted him dead.
He shifted grabbing his jacket and shoving it closer to his body trying to hide he wished he'd have his long black hair covering his face he knew he shouldn't have fucking chopped it all off but his girl at the time 'found him more attractive that way'
Getting off tracked he suddenly blurted it out "ya know that gig ya played?.." she became even more confused as to why he would bring it up at a time like this but she shivered and nodded staring down at his cigarette.
He stared up at her shame evident on his face that he knew he should've told her this ages ago but he thought tonight it felt like the right time to do so, he gulped paranoia taking over his being "well..uh..frank didn't save you that night I did.." danny's face contorted and shook her head in disbelief she began to walk away until Gerard grabbed her hand softly with his much larger one.
"Please stay. I have more to tell you" he pleaded regretting her decision from being so willing she nodded her head in agreement and listened to more of his information gerard caressed her hand gently with his thumb and looked into her soft eyes again and whispered again "we're not good people danny.." not understanding she wanted to ask more she wasn't scared  frightened or confused just intrigued.
He knew she wanted to ask more and he continued his story with more explanation to make his story more understandable, "danny what we do is.." he ran his hand through his black greasy hair and contemplating whether or not he should tell her this information but he already spoke too much so he continued on "well uh what we do is we kill people. We kill people for money and wealth and well we um.. er.. killed the wrong people and now we're targeted your friends aren't safe and I'm sorry sweetheart but you're not either they are after us and let's say they aren't the nicest of people."
Taken aback what she just learned she dropped her hands gerard anxious began to either say it's all a lie and a trick or just flight and run into the night.
But instead she hugged him she hugged him tightly as if she'd never see the man again, gerard scared and didn't know what to do since he's never been 'hugged' before began to pat her back softly before danny grabbed his long arms and made them wrap around her waist.
After a few minutes of them just hugging Gerard pushed her away "I uh got you something I dunno if it'll fit you though." He opened a small black bad by his side and pulled out some clothing a long black and grey stripped shirt with skinny jeans.
She smiled and hugged Gerard again gladly accepting the clothing, she nodded her head saying a smiled 'thanks' even though she couldn't gerard stuck his two fingers up in the air and made a gun with them and fired as if his fingers had an impact he shuffled and quietly said
"were gonna get em though before they get you."
