Aww Pickles, My Neighbor is A Hottie

***Gerard’s POV***

***A month later***

News had slipped out that Iris and I were official. She got tons of hate, but along with the hate came the love. It was weird though, so many people liked Karie more than her. They didn’t even know her. She made me happy so they should have been happy for her. Whatever. They could either grow to like her or they could hate her forever. I knew she made me happy and that was good for me. The tour was finally over and I was heading to Mikey’s. Iris and I were going to buy a house, but until then I could stay at Mikey’s. He didn’t mind. I don’t think he did at least. I looked out the window and saw a boy with a woman. It reminded me of Karie and Bryan. Bryan’s birthday was during the tour, so maybe I could go visit him and say hello. Why would I want to though? They would give me dirty looks and yell at me. That was the last thing I wanted. I needed to go visit him though. That would be the right thing to do.

“Mike! I’m going to get some coffee, would you like some?” I started to walk out the door. Mikey stuck his head out of the book and nodded. I gave him a thumbs up and ran out of the house. Well I had to get coffee on the way back now. It was worth it. I didn’t want him to know that I was visiting the girl that he absolutely despised. We got over the whole leak thing. I got in the car and started it up. I was begging that Karie wouldn’t kick me out right away. I wanted to see Bryan and give him his birthday present. I had gotten him a few new video games that I was betting Karie wouldn’t let him have. She was such a mother to him.

I rang the doorbell and stood on the door steps. I wanted Bryan to open the door and tackle me in a hug, but that would never happen. Bryan hated me. I thought he did. I knew he did. I thought he did. I don’t know. I would have to find out.

“Hey! You came ea-“ Karie opened the door. She was wearing a Van tee with PJ pants. Her hair was in a bun. She stopped mid-sentence and stared at me. She looked angry, but sad at the same time.

“May I come in? I want to give Bryan his presents.” I lightly said. She just kept staring at me. Was she in shock? She probably thought I was never coming back considering I got a new girlfriend. I wanted to visit. Be friends.

“Where is she?” Karie finally spoke. She was angered. I could see it in her eyes and I could hear it in her voice. I gulped.

“Who…?” I shyly asked. I knew she was talking about Iris. I didn’t feel like admitting it though. I didn’t want to hurt Karie anymore .She scowled at me.

“You know who. Your new ‘girlfriend.’ You know sometimes I wonder how fast you move on. You told me you loved me. How can you just get over that? I don’t believe it. How can someone do that? You can’t tell someone you love them and get over it in a month.” She was shaking. I was pissed now. That fucking hypocrite. There was something I didn’t tell anyone. It was a long time ago.

“You,” I pointed at her, “you are a hypocrite. Remember in freshman year when you told me you loved me. Then you became popular. Then I wasn’t cool enough to be your friend. I wanted to be your boyfriend from then on. You think I can get over you that fast? Like bam now I don’t like you. I love you Karie. Love you. I always will, but sometimes you need to try and move on. I need to move on. That is what I am doing.” I felt myself start to cry. I walked off and headed back to my car. I was still holding Bryan’s present. I looked at the letter once more.

‘Hey Bryan,

I hope you had a lovely birthday. I know I wasn’t there, but I was there in spirit. Anways, I hope you hav fun playing these games.
Love you little bud,

Gerard.’
