Thick As Thieves [Mikey Way]

“This way.” I whispered to the guys as we made our way through the fire exit of the hotel.
We didn’t have any money so we kinda just had to escape.
Thank fuck for the guy who came up with fake names.

“Where are we actually going?” Ray whispered loudly from two places behind.

I was leading them around with Gerard behind me and Ray behind him with Frank and Mikey bringing up the rear.

“Well, first we find out way out of here, then we find the safest way to Jersey.” I told them and it was silent once again.

Eventually, I found a heavy wooden door with bright moonlight flowing in from the cracks.

I grinned and opened it, leading us all to the freedom of the cool night air.

I glanced back up at the well lit room we had been staying in for the last 24 hours and bit my lip.
What if they could smell us?
What if we didn’t pick up after ourselves and they picked up our scent?
We would be royally fucked with a shard of glass.

I sigh and shake the thoughts from my head.
We purified the place.
It should be okay.

“Come on. Let’s keep going…” I say and lead them through the trees.

You can hear all the cars going along the nearby roads.
This would be so much easier on wheels.
But we can’t even get a car.
It would be far too easy for the bad vampyres to find us.
Something about being around trees scrambles vampire scent, making it almost impossible for vampyres to track us down.
Something about an ancient bond with nature that vampires have.

We continued to walk for ages.

It was a beautiful night.

Full moon, cool wind.
Not a cloud in the sky and stars dotting the dark sky.

It was almost as light as it would be with that big ball of radiation exploding up in the sky.

I glanced back at Mikey and smiled.

He wasn’t wearing his glasses at the time, meaning he was blind as a fucking bat really.
Gerard was helping him to not fall over.

I chuckled and looked back, letting out a short cry as I run smack bang into a large tree.

I fell back on my ass and put my hand to my forehead, pulling it away to see if I was bleeding.
Which I was.

I glanced back at the guys who were laughing their ass off.
Well, Ray and Gerard were.
Frank was laughing so hard no sound was coming out.
He was just clapping like a retarded seal.

Mikey, on the other hand, was just looking around with a confused look on his face.

“What happened? Why is everyone laughing?!” He asked, obviously upset he couldn’t see.

Fucking Frank accidently broke his glasses.

I just chuckled and shook my head.

“Nothing. Nothing happened.” I said but Frank finally found his voice and spoke up.

“Your girlfriend was staring at you so she ran into a fucking tree!” He shrieked with absolute glee and I facepalmed, making him laugh even more.

Mikey began to blush and looked in my direction.

I don’t know if he can kinda see or if that was just an extremely lucky glance.
Because I’m pretty sure that would have been embarrassing if he just talked to a tree, thinking it was me.

“Ignore him. I swear he’s--- I don’t even fucking know what he is to be completely honest.” Mikey said and I giggled.

“Hey!” Frank called pouting.

I just rolled my eyes at the shorter man.

“Whatever you fucking psycho.” I said and he just glared.

“Geeeee! She’s being mean!” He cried, jumping into Gerard’s arms more or less.

“He started it!” I yelled, pointing at Mikey who just gave me an innocent look that, if I was alone with him, would have made me swoon.
But I wasn’t gonna do that with his brother and friends around.

“Don’t be mean to hiiiim!” Gerard whined, kissing Frank on the cheek softly.

I raised one eyebrow at Ray and he nodded.

“Yeah. This has been going on for a while now.” He said and I nodded slowly.

“Huh…” I said and tried to take it in.

I do see it.
Theyer so fucking cute together now that I actually have it right in front of my face.

“Guys! I’m blind! What do I do?” Mikey yells over all of us.

Well, actually it was just Gerard and Frank being all lovey and kissing and all that couple shit that makes me wanna puke, and me and Ray just watching them, half intrigued, half confused.

“Well good luck to them.” I muttered then look at Mikey.

“I have an idea but its kinda dangerous.” I said with a sigh.

There’s a way for decedents to cure any kind of disease or injury, I’m not sure if I can cure Mikey’s partial blindness though.

“I don’t care. I need to be able to see. It’s gonna be hard for me to get new glasses like this, isn’t it. And if I can’t see, I’m useless in a fight. If I’m useless in a fight, I’m an easy target. If I’m an easy target, I’m the first one to die.” He said.

I didn’t need any more convincing.

I didn’t know it was that serious and I’m sure Frank is fucking kicking himself over this.

“Okay. I’ll help you. I’m sorry if this doesn’t work.” I said and he sighed.

“What happens if it doesn’t?” He asked.

I bit my lip.

“You go completely blind, and I die. ” I tell him gravely.

He sighs.

“Let’s make sure it works then.”
