Well I hope that you do the same, aww sugar...

Alice opened her eyes and for a moment she panicked before remembering where she was, when this a happened a smile came to her lips.

She had a blanket on that she didn't remember having when she fell asleep, then she turned to her right and saw Gerard still sleeping facing her, his mouth slightly open and breathing deeply.
Maybe he was the one that putted that blanket on her, or Mikey that was also sleeping close to Gerard.

She couldn't fall asleep again, so she decided to make some breakfast, at least some coffee and pancakes, after all boys were always hungry. She got up and walked towards the kitchen, when she was done making breakfast which consisted only in pancakes and coffee, she saw the clock it was already 10 am, which wasn't late really.

Alice then remembered she still had her panties drying in the tub of the bathroom, she decided it was better she removed them from there already, before somebody saw them, she walked toward the bathroom across the hall and when she tried to open the door it was locked.

Oh, oh. Alice thought before someone shouted

- I won't take long!. - it was Gerard. Goddammit Alice, now he's seen your panties, you should have done something else with them, even throwing them out sounded like a better idea right now, she realized she hadn't answer.

-um...o-okay! - she said stuttering a little and louder than she intended. - take as long as you want, I made breakfast! .- Really Alice? one after another.

-Great! - said Gerard.- I'll be there in a min.

Alice then walked towards the living room and saw Mikey still sleeping, she decided not to wake him up, after all reheated pancakes tasted just as good. Alice sat down at the kitchen still embarrassed about the fact that Gerard was in the bathroom with her panties in full view, she tried to take it out of her mind sipping her milk.

Finally, she heard footsteps coming to the kitchen before Gerard's head on the door.
- I just have to take something from my room, I'll be right back.- he said sweetly smiling at her, why did he have to be so perfect?- oh! you made pancakes, you're the best Alice, be right back!- he said again before disappearing again.

He came back holding two sheets of paper, and sitting down beside Alice, he handed them to her and then took a sip of one cup of coffee. Alice looked down to see that they both were blank, she looked at him confused but avoiding her eyes and without saying anything he got up and put his coffee inside the microwave.

Alice looked down again at the blank sheets, feeling ever more confused she turned them around and her eyes opened widely; they were 2 stunning drawings made only with pencil.

In one there was the face of a beautiful girl amazingly drawn she had dark hair and light colored eyes, judging by how lighter they were drawn compared to other things in the drawing, like a dark beach on the background. She looked strangely familiar to Alice, her eyes at first glance looked happy but once you looked at them intensely you could get a sense of deep sadness in them, that kind of sadness that's been there for quite a while.

The other drawing was the same girl, wearing a misfits t-shirt sitting down on a school beach, lost in thought looking at the window, with a hand beautifully drawn as everything else holding her head, it wasn't until Alice studied the threes that were outside that window, that she realized who the girl was, it was her...

Alice finally looked up and saw that Gerard was sitting beside her again, she didn't realize when he got there, he didn't say a word and was looking intensely into her eyes, she felt her knees getting weak, thank god she was sitting.

Gerard started to get even closer to her without breaking eye contact, after what felt like an eternity in which she didn't breath at all, his lips touched hers softly before pressing into them, they were soft and the scent of Gerard invaded her, a mixture of coffee, cigarettes and his cologne, they kissed slowly and then started to go faster as the kiss got deeper, Alice opened her mouth and the sour taste of coffee overwhelmed her, their tongues started dancing and Gerard placed his hand on her neck, caressing it, causing her to shiver as she started to caress his hair, she felt her cheeks burning before they broke apart and were looking at each other's eyes once again, breathing heavily.

-I really like you, Alice.
