It was the Fourth of July, and you and I were, you and I were, fire, fireworks-- Wait, I'm supposed to tell you guys the story aren't I, not sing the song (even though it's one of my favorites lol)... well, here it is:

Pete, Patrick, Andy, and Joe sat on a checkered blanket, waiting somewhat patiently for the show to start.  They had applied dry bug spray earlier, so the mosquitoes weren't bothering them much.

"Hey," someone whispered in the dark.  Pete looked up at a tall man--taller than him anyway, which was most people--with glasses and medium-length hair.  (This is back in 2005 as you can see) "Mikey!" he said, delighted.  "Hi, Pete.  Do you wanna... sit with me?" Mikey asked, casting an awkward glance at the other Fall Out Boy members.  "Go ahead, Pete! We don't mind," Patrick encouraged his emo friend.  "Yeah," Joe agreed, resting his head on Andy's shoulder.  "Well, if it's alright with you guys," Pete replied, accepting Mikey's helping hand.  They walked a short distance away, and Mikey spread out a blanket, beckoning Pete to sit.  He did so, not bothering to hide his smile as their hands touched. 

Suddenly, the sky lit up in a bright flash--the fireworks were beginning! Mikey grinned.  "It's beautiful," he marveled.  "Not like you," Pete replied quietly.  Mikey glanced over at him.  "Smooth move, Wentz," he said.  "If a little unoriginal." They resumed watching the show in silence, enjoying each other's company.  At the end, Pete's head was resting in Mikey's lap, and the MCR bassist was stroking his hair. 

Hmm... kinda cringy ending.  But I wanted to give you guys a sample of my "expert" (meh) fanfic writing :)
