Roommates

Rain.

I was woken up by rain pit- pattering on my window.  I sighed and sat up.  I looked around like I didn't know where I was when I knew exactly where I was.  I looked on the floor beside me.  Ray was sleeping on a blanket and a pillow.  I smiled and got up.  There was a sharp pain in my hand when I tried lifting myself up.  I looked over to my right hand and saw the bandage wrap.  I immediately remembered.  I got up, quietly stepping over Ray.  When I walked out of my room Mikey was in the kitchen fixing himself something.  He looked over at me, then at my floor.  He made a strange face.  "I guess he fell asleep in there last night." I said.  He nodded and went back to fixing him something.

"Babe."   I looked over at Ray.  He's started calling me babe now.  "What?"   "Open your mouth." He said.  "Why?" I asked.  "Just open it.  Close your eyes too." He said.  "Woah. If you're gonna fuck her in the mouth go to one of your bed rooms, Ray." Frank said.  "Oh shut up, Frankie."  I turned my body facing Ray.  "Open your mouth and close your eyes please." He said.  "I'm kind of scared to." I said.  "Don't be." He assured.  I listened and closed my eyes and opened my mouth.  I felt something go into my mouth.  "Now chew on it." I heard Ray say.  I started chewing.  It tasted disgusting.  I made a weird face but kept chewing.  It had a meaty tase to it but there was still something different about it.  "I don't like it." I finally said.  "You can open your eyes." Ray laughed.  He held a plate up to me and I spit the food out on the plate.  "What was that?" I asked.  "Sausage." Ray smiled.  I gagged.  "You put fucking sausage in my mouth?" I questioned.  "Yes." He laughed.  "Ew."   I turned back around and drank some blood, hoping to get the taste out of my mouth.  "No, that's ew." Ray said.  I rolled my eyes.  I saw Gerard shaking his head in the corner of my eye.  "I still can't believe you like that shit." Frank mumbled.  I laughed at Frank.  Mikey gave a small smile when I laughed.  It was pretty cute to be honest.  He never smiles but when he does it's actually pretty cute.  I need to stop.  I'm dating Ray.  "Brie?" Someone said.  "Huh?" I snapped out of my trance.  All of the boys were standing up walking towards to door.  "We're going out.  Wanna come?" Gerard asked.  "Um.  Maybe." I sighed.  "Come on, please." Ray said.  "I don't know." I whispered.  "Please?" Ray whispered back.  "But I don't want to get up." I said.  "I'll help you." He slightly smirked.  "What's that mean?" I said quietly.  "This."  He came over and grabbed me by the waist.  "What are you doing?" I asked placing my hands on his shoulders.  "Taking you with us." He said simply.  He picked me up and threw me over his shoulder.  They all walked out the door and Ray carried me. 

We were walking out of the apartment building when I asked Ray a question.  "Are you really going to carry me all the way to where you're going?"   "Maybe." He managed to shrug.  I'm glad it was a cloudy, rainy day.  He shifted me, lowering me down a bit.  He wrapped my legs around his lower torso.  I hugged him around the neck.  It felt right but then again it felt wrong.  I laid my head on his shoulder.  He looked at me and smiled.  I smiled back at him.  "Aww." Someone said.  I lifted my head and looked in front of us.  Gerard and Frank were looking back at us.  They were both smiling at us.  I rolled my eyes and laid my head back on his shoulder.  Mikey was behind us looking down at the ground.  I looked away from him.  "Could you put me down?" I whispered to Ray.  He sighed but nodded.  When he put me down, I slowed so Mikey could catch up to me.  "Hey." I said.  He looked over at me.  "Hey." He whispered.  "Do you have any clue where we're going?" I asked.  "Nope."   "Damn."  "Why?" He asked.  "I was just wondering." I shrugged.  "Ok." He nodded.

We stopped walking when we got to a small mall.  "Wanna go here?" Gerard asked.  "Sure." We all mumbled.  We walked in and went to the first store Gerard walked into.  It was a book store.  He and Frank were looking at comics.  Mikey was wandering around and Ray and I were looking in the mythology section.  My choice to look at.  I was looking at a book of Norse God's.  I saw the famous yet infamous name, Loki.  "Loki the trickster." I read out loud.  Ray looked up at me from a book he was looking over.  "Loki, an ugly giant- hang on!" I said.  "What?" Ray asked.  "Loki isn't ugly!  Well the movie Loki and some of the comic versions of him isn't." I said aloud.  I kept reading about Loki to myself.  I turned the pages until a titel caught my eye.  'loki's children.'  It said.  "Loki had children?!" I said, my eyes widening as I looked up at Ray.  "Apparently." He shrugged.  "I have to read this." I whispered to myself.  "Hey guys, we're going to a different store." Gerard said.  I looked at Ray.  "I need this." I breathed out.  He laughed.  "Then get it." He said.  "Oh I am!" I smiled walking up to the counter.  I paid for the book and we went to a lot of different stores.  I didn't buy anything else.  We finally left the mall.  It started to rain half way to the apartment.  Gerard, Frank, and Ray were playing around in the rain.  It reminded me of my mom.  She loved the rain.  She had polka dot rain boots that she loved.  She bought me and my sister matching ones when we were little kids.  She would go outside with us when it would rain and we would play around.  She loved watching us jump in the mud puddles.  "Hey, you okay?" Mikey asked, putting a hand on my back.  "Yeah." I looked over at Mikey.  "Yeah I'm fine." I nodded.  He looked down at his shoes.  "Thinking about your mom again?" He whispered.  "Yeah." I whispered back. 

Surprisingly it didn't take long for the boys to get sleepy when we got back to the apartment.  Frank and Gerard were already in the bed, Ray and Mikey were getting ready.  I obviously wasn't tired, so I just sat on the couch.  I saw Ray walking out of his room so I looked over to see what he was doing.  When I looked over I saw Mikey.  He was taking his shirt off.  He wasn't all muscles but he wasn't just skin and bones either.  "Shit." I thought to myself.  He walked away to go get something, his sweat pants clinging to his waist.  "Goodnight Brie." I heard Ray yawn.  My neck snapped over at him.  "Uh, Goodnight." I said.  He went into his room and shut the door.   "What am I doing? Staring at a shirtless man when I have a fucking boyfriend.  I need to stop." I said to myself.  I went to my room, got my new book and read till I couldn't read any longer and went to sleep for a few hours.
