“I guess I just miss my baby brother.” Gerard said, letting out a deep breath.
I felt really bad for him, honestly I did. His brother was being a frickhead and Gerard just wanted Mikey to act like himself again.
“Sorry. Didn’t mean to drag you into the family drama. Anyways, the lasagna’s almost ready. I’m going to set the table. Thanks for helping me with dinner.” He smiled in a way that almost looked painful and left, walking towards what I would guess to be the dining room.
Mikey stomped down the stairs shirtless, luckily though he had on pants, looking extremely angry. He started walking to the dining room, so I walked over to him, stopping him before he could get to Gerard and make him more upset.
“You. You’re not going in there yet and you certainly aren’t unless you’re going to apologise to him.” I spat at him, blocking the doorway to the dining room with my arm.
“Do you even know what he did?!” Mikey growled, glaring down at me.
“Yes, he interrupted you being a slut with your boy so you wouldn’t be too exhausted to eat the dinner that he worked extremely hard to cook.”
His eyes flashed with anger right before he grabbed me by the collar and pulled me up to his eye level.
“What did you call me?” He snarled, grinding his teeth down.
“A slut, I think.” Gerard appeared in the doorway, smirking.
Mikey dropped me quickly, not before slapping me, and walked to Gerard, puffing out his chest and crossing his arms. “You need to apologise to Pete. He’s terrified now.”
Gerard looked upset and walked towards me, almost hiding behind me.
“How dare you. I can’t believe you would ask Gerard to apologise to him.” I growled, stepping closer to Gerard in a protective manner.
“You’re not even involved in this! Get out of the house!” Mikey screeched.
Gerard stepped out from behind me. “He’s not leaving.”
“Why not? You hated him this morning!”
“And you weren’t a jerk this morning. Things change.” Gerard said calmly.
It made me feel better that he didn’t hate me anymore and I let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding.
“Screw this.” Mikey said, storming out and back up the stairs.
Tears started to form in Gerard’s eyes, making me use every ounce of self-control I had to not wrap my arms around him and make sure he was okay.
“C-can you just hold me?”
I closed the space between us, letting my arms wrap around him. He shook slightly as his head dropped on my shoulder and his arms slinked around my waist.
“Thank you.” Gerard mumbled into my shoulder, tightening his grip around me.
“Of course.” I whispered right as the timer went off, signifying the lasagna was done.
“I guess it’s just us eating tonight.” He said as he pulled away and went to get the lasagna so it didn’t burn.
