You're Never Just A 'Nobody'

When Gerard texted me around quarter past 5, asking me to come over I agreed. Maggie also tagged along.
When we cleaned ourselves up a little and arrived, Gerard, Mikey and Frank all sat around on the couches, talking about what I guessed what it was like recording.

"Baaaaabe" Frank cried, as soon as he saw Maggie, she smiled and hug him but to her supries, he picked her up and kissing her cheek before sitting themselves down.
Gerard and I rolled our eyes and laughed at them, which they scowled at. Honestly; they were adorable together.
I walked over towards Gerard, exchanging some awkward hello with Mikey.

"So.." Maggie asks, breaking the weird silence. Gerard flings his arm around my shoulders as we're side by side,

"Soo...?" Gerard says, mimicking her tone. She rolls her eyes in response,

"How was it? Did they like it?"

"Yeah, it was great. They said they'll need us again tomorrow to record more, and I think they enjoyed it, us." Frank answers, tightening his grip on Maggie's waist.

"Yeah, they also mentioned stuff about touring, but that was going to be settled after we'd finished recording." Mikey pipes up, we all nod and continue conversation about other topics.

-------------- *5 Days Later* --------------

Before I hop into the shower, Gerard calls out saying my phone is ringing, also saying it's my mother.
I quickly wrap a towel around myself and reach for the phone,

"Fuck Ava, it's nothing iv seen before." Gerard chuckles, I blush and roll my eyes, grabbing my phone in the process.

"Hello?"

'Avalon, honey, how is everything?' My mothers voice rings through the device, I tell her how I'm holding up and that I'll be finished my degree before summer, which she is excited to hear about. What she then says is something that strucks my attention,

'After you've finished, I'd be happy to pay for a plane ride back here. I know you have Gerard there, but maybe you could come and visit for a while? See your sisters and brother?' She asks. I don't take up the offer quite yet, but tell her I'll let her know if or if not I'll come and visit. We talk for a little bit more, until she has to go. We said our goodbyes and I hung up, returning to my shower.


When i got out, and walked out the door, Gerard's arms wrapped around my waist and surprised me.I shrieked and tried to squirm out of his grip, but he only laughed. When he put me back down on the ground, he pecked my lips and went for his shower.

The conversation between my mother and I still rung around in my head. It would be nice to see my family again, go back to Australia. I still had 3 weeks before I finished to make my decision. It didn't feel like that long, but Gerard came over to me and say down.

"What's up?" He asked, obviously noticing my confusion. I sighed and told him about my mothers offer, he kept quiet and nodded at what I was telling him. When I finished he took both my hands in his and had the same facial expression as when he told me he loved me; his dead set serious face.

"Honestly? I don't want you going, but I know you should. You didn't spend Christmas with them, you haven't seen them in how long? I'm 99% sure you should go." He says.

"What about that 1%?" I ask, raising my eyebrow at him, he looks up at me and smirks,

"I'd miss our sex, duh. That's what that 1% goes too" He replies. We both burst out in laughter. My hands are drying the tears out of my eyes, that's how bad it is.

"But, Ava" He continues, breathing in between his words, "I think you should go, how long will you be gone for?"

"Two months.." I reply, barely above a whisper. He still hears me though. His eyes look into mine with hope, almost as if he's waiting for me to say 'I'm kidding', but knows i won't.

"T-two months?" He chokes out,
"Ava I won't be able to go through two months with out you."

I knew exactly what he meant. We were the kind of couple that HAD to be with each other 24/7, there was no possible way we could be apart for two days, and having to deal with two months... I didn't want to leave him, leave us, but I need to go back home.
I knew he wouldn't be able to make it two months without me. We both know he'd go back to drinking, worse even.
We just couldn't be apart from eachother.

"Gerard, I know it sounds bad, but we'll get through it. First iv got to finish and then we'll see what happens after then, okay?" I try and build up his confidence, but I can tell he's not buying it. He nods his head in agreement and gets up to go to bed, I let him know I'll be in there soon.

I sit there in the wooden chair, questions racing through my head, to the point where I'm stressing. What'll happen when I graduate? I don't even have a house here, I was only offered to come to the U.S because of my art work. I'll need to get passports renewed if I wanted to continuously travel from here to Australia. I clear all of my thoughts out and head to my room.

I find Gerard on one side of my bed, up against the wall. I pull the blanket back and hope in, almost instantly his arms go around my waist and pulls me closer.

"We'll be able to get through this, I promise you." He mumbles into my hair. I don't respond, not because I don't want to, but because I'm already asleep.
