You're Never Just A 'Nobody'

After Christmas, I spent another 3 days NJ. Not a lot was some then, just looking around the place and taking it in before I left; it was a nice place, like I said, but I'd only visit with Gerard.
When it was time to leave, I thanked Gerard's parents for having me stay over and for being overly kind to me, which they blush to and go on about how much of a 'lovely' girl I am. Mikey catches a ride with Gerard and I back to NY, so there was no exchanging goodbyes with him.

It was mid winter, which meant the snow was super heavy. Not heavy so the roads were closed off, but close to it. I offered to drive since Gerard drove to Summit, but he insisted.
The car ride wasn't much to my enjoyment, all we did was play a bunch of music, talk and heard Mikey's conversation over the phone time to time.

"Mikey, can you grab us something to eat while I fuel up?" Gerard asks, looking over his shoulder at Mikey. He nods and they both get out of the truck. I look around at the surroundings, snow and big trees. Fabulous.
Im interrupted when Gerard taps on my window, pointing over to his wallet, I hand it over to him and he thanks me.

He hasn't talked about what happened on Christmas. I start to think he isn't interested anymore, which kinda leaves me in my own daze, once again.

Soon enough Mikey comes back with 2 coffees and some tea for me, a muffin as well. I take them both, scoffing them down. I haven't eaten since last night, oops.
Gerard comes back moments later, looking at Mikey with food in his hands and back at me, with nothing.

"Mikey where the fuck is Ava's?"

"She ate it.." Mikey chuckles, causing me to laugh. God, now I sound like a pig. Gerard rolls his eyes and starts the car, heading back to NY.

--------------- * NY * ----------------

We drop Mikey off first, he thanks me for the Christmas presents again and hopes to see me soon, which I say the same back.

When Gerard and I make it back to NYU, we're greeted by Maggie and Frank. They help us take our bags back to our rooms, Maggie starting conversations about how her and Frank spent Christmas, which sounded heaps more exciting then mine with Gerard.

After she had finished, she asked about Gerard and I. I told her about Christmas Day, and how he's been distant ever since. She sighs I annoyance,

"Maybe he's just nervous?" She asks,

"About what? I'm fine with everything, really." I state, looming back at her. We find our room and she fumbles with the keys, finally opening the door.

"Maybe he's finally going to pop the fucking question" Her tone is a bit funny, so I can't help but to laugh. She drops the conversion and comes over to help me unpack. When I lean over my bag, she gasps,

"Holy fuck Ava!" She exclaims, staring at my necklace, "Is this the necklace you were talking about?!" I nod, she studies it a bit more, not really studying it, more like admiring it. I roll my eyes and continue unpacking.

When I'm finally finished, I lay on the couch for a little just staring at the ceiling. Just thinking about life.
Ew.

At that moment, my phone rings, Gerard's ringtone flowing through the room,

'Elloo' I answer,

'Hey, do you think you could meet me at the tables outside out buildings?' He asks, sounding slightly shaky.

'Uhh, yeah sure' I reply. He mumbles a quick thankyou and hangs up. I let Maggie know I'll be back in a minute and make my way outside.

When the doors fling open, I see Gerard leaning against one of the benches drenched in snow. I walk up to him and sit down on the seat, side by side. We just sit there, looming out at the streets in front of us,

"So, iv been thinking..." He starts, clearing his throat,
"Thinking about you, thinking about me. My mother had told me I seem like a better person when I'm around you, Mikey tells me he wants to spend time with me because I'm in such a good mood since iv met you, and just then Frank commented on how I act these days, with more pride and a happier person thing.
And I was thinking, about ever since I met you, my life has changed. Ya know, for the best. I feel like a better person when I'm around you. And that makes me feel so fucking good." He pauses for a little, I take in what he's saying, "So iv been thinking, I want to be a better person, iv wanted to be a better person for years now, but I can't find anyone that makes me feel that, expect you, and I don't want to loose you, Ava."

We're silent for a while, I take in his words, trying to comprehend them in my own ways. He's a better person when around me..?

"So what I'm trying to get to is," He starts, taking my hand in his,

"Is, will you Avalon Jones, be my girlfriend?"
