You're Never Just A 'Nobody'
Chapter 7.
"AVAAAAAA!!!!" Screams Maggie, making me shoot up, worried. I hurry out of bed, tripping at least twice as I make my way to the kitchen/dining room where Maggie is.
Oh, but Maggie is not alone. Sitting on one of the chairs around the table, is Gerard.
So let me clarify this, I have horrible bed hair, I smell really really bad and I most likely look like complete shit. And then there's Gerard, looking a million dollars. His hair is not as scruffy today, he's wearing black skinny jeans with a black and white striped shirt. He's chewing on some gum and has a coffee cup in front of him.
Wait. Coffee? As in Maggie's coffee? Are they friends now or something?.....
"Oh uhh." I stand there, blushing madly. Embarrassed. I'm in black booty shorts with a hot pink singlet. Thank the heavens I'm wearing a bra. Gerard's face turns a bright red, while Maggie is standing there, switching her eyes from myself back to Gerard.
"I-I think I'm going to go for a shower. I'll be out in a few" I whip my body around and jog to the shower.
* Maggie's P.O.V ooooooo *
Ava races to the bathroom, clearly embarrassed. I probably should have told her not to come out in her pjs... oops.
I turn to face Gerard. Sitting myself down on the chair next to him, he looks up from his coffee cup, his normal coloring in his face again, smiling up at me. The way he smiles at you gives you the reputation of a guy that would burn down your house just for kicks.
"So.." I speak up, ".. you and Ava, huh?" Asking him the question Iv been wanting to know for the past 5 days, he looks up at me, the bright red coming back into his cheeks. He looks ahead of us, as if Ava would come out of the shower this fast.
"Uhh yeah. What about her?" He asks, taking a sip of his coffee.
"What's the go there? You like her or something?" I reply, pushing the conversation further, most likely pushing his buttons while doing so.
"Honestly? I think so. She's incredible. Absolutely gorgeous, she's got the best personality ever, her art skills are so unique. Every time I see her I just- I can't take my eyes off of her." He pauses, looking up to see my expression, which is totally starstruck. He's opening up, to me? Like I mean, yeah we were friends and then lost contact for about 5 years and now I'm sitting him down, offering him coffee and practically forcing him to open up about the feelings he has for my best friend.
Oops?..
"Aha, sorry you probably think that sounds really stupid" He continues, smirking down at himself, feeling the slightest bit embarrassed for opening up to me.
"Gerard, don't worry about it. Okay? At least I know the truth. Thankyou." He nods, I give him a supporting smile.
"Coffee?" I say breaking the awkward silence. He replies with a quick 'yes'. I stand up taking his cup cup with with so I whip up some coffee, for myself and Gerard. I hear the shower stop and seconds later I see Ava walking out of the bathroom, a nice red shirt with black 3 quarter black jeans on.
*Back to Avalon's P.O.V*
I waltz back into the dining room. I see Gerard looking down at his fingers crossed. He looks up at me, he studies my face for a while, I ignore it and walk straight past him, giving him a quick 'good morning'. Making my way to the kitchen to find Maggie making coffee, two cups of coffee. She's making one for Gerard too? Okay..
I pour myself some tea and Gerard speaks up as I raise my cup to my lips,
"I-um, I thought we could walk to our class together..? If you don't mind that is." He asks, stumbling over his words a little.
What did Maggie say to him?
"Oh yeah sure, that'd be great. We should probably head off now, it's already 9:30am" I say, quickly finishing off my tea. Gerard grabs his coffee and scoffs it down. Ew. He thanks Maggie and grabs my hand, making our way over to the door.
Gerard's hand is still holding mine as I stumble behind him, he slows down realizing I just about fall on my face.
We make it too class in fine timing. Sitting down in our seats up the back and just talking to each other, I realize I haven't answered his question. On whether or not I'll go on his little 'date' type of thing he offered.
I bring out my phone, finding his name and replying, he clearly said to 'text or call' him when I thought about it
Me: Sure :)
I look over to see Gerard looking at his phone in confusion.
Gerard: what?
Me: Iv made up my mind. Pick me up at 6, tonight? :)
Gerard looks over at me, his face lit up with excitement, the biggest smile painted across it.
You're going on a date with Gerard.
