I Never Told You What I Do For a Living
The Meeting
The leaves rustled on the tree as one by one they slowly fell on to the damn grass. It was a cold day in October when the Iero family moved to Newark New Jersey.
Their twins Frank and Jaydee were only seventeen about to turn eighteen on the 31st. Neither one of them wanted to leave New York. They didn't see the point in starting senior year in a new school.
The car pulled into the drive way, the tires grinding against the gravel. The car door open slowly and a kid with dark black hair sweeping over his face and a lip ring stepped out. Frank. He wore a look of disgust as he glared up at the big house.
"We're moving into this shit hole?" He crossed his arms over his chest and kicked the rocks under his face grumbling.
"Oh shut up Frankie it's beautiful and you know it" Jaydee hissed at her stubborn brother and gazed up at the big house.
It was coded in fresh white paint and had blue shutters on each window.
"I don't see why we have to live in this dump." Frank spat.
"Stop your belly aching and help your father bring in the boxes." Their mother growled as she walked up the drive way marveling at her new home.
"Yeah whatever." He muttered under his breath. Rolling his eyes he picked up a box and stomped through the front door.
Jaydee took a few boxes up to her new room and started unpacking. A few hours later she was all settled into her new room and decided to go check on her brother.
"Hey grumpy, you need help unpacking?" She asked in a sing-song voice.
"What are you doing? We don't want to be here remember? We had to leave our home, the
place we grew up for dad’s stupid fucking job, and for what? Our last fucking year of school.
"This is bullshit and you know it." He voice was filled with pain and betrayal.
"Were here whether we want to be or not so we just got to suck it up. I'm pissed just like you but I'm not gonna turn into super bitch just because we had to leave. There's nothing we can do about it now anyway." She sat next to him on the bed and followed his gaze to the wall.
She watched him glare and an angry tear built up in the corner of his eye.
"Just leave me alone okay?" He hissed.
"Fine whatever Frank." She stormed out of his room more angry then she was when they arrived.
She crashed onto her bed and tried to sleep but all she could think about was her friends that she left behind and having to be the new kid at school again, she just lay there unable to sleep.
Soon enough morning came and it was the first day of school. Frank and Jaydee dragged themselves out of bed and down stairs. Neither of them had a car yet so they were forced to walk.
After a few minutes they approached a big building with people swarming in. Looking at their schedules they saw they had separate first period classes. They looked at each other both in fear of splitting apart and roaming through the foreign school alone. They sighed, said their goodbyes and parted in search of first period.
Jaydee slowly walked into room 311 which was her biology class.
"Uh...Mrs. Trenton?" She asked as her face became hot, her nerves getting the better of her.
"Yes sweetie?" The middle aged teacher asked looking up from her desk with her glasses
pushed to the end of her nose.
"...hi...uh...I'm Jaydee Iero. I'm new here." She choked out and tried to breathe smoothly.
"Oh yes that's right. I'm expecting you. You're sitting in the back nest to Gerard." She looked up from her seating chart and towards the class full of students. "Mr. Way?" She called out and no one answered. "Gerard Way." Again no answer. "Gerard!"She practically screamed.
"Huh?" The guy in the back of the room grunted confused, pulling and ear bud from his ear, music was blaring out.
“Ok sweetie go sit next to the confused one in the back. He'll be your lab partner."
Jaydee made her way to the back of the room and took her seat by Gerard.
As she took her seat by him she just couldn't stop staring. He was hot. He had mid-neck length jet black hair with smooth pale skin, but his eyes are what drew him to her. They were a honey hazel with specks of green. When he looked up at her gazed her trance broke and her face became red.
"...Can I help you with something?" He hissed unaware of how he must have sounded.
"Oh...uh...n-no.....s-sorry..." She looked down at her desk chewing her lip and mentally
slapping herself.
The look on her face made the corners of Gerard's mouth curl up. The red tint to her face made her look so cute. "I'm Gerard."
She glanced back up to see him smiling at her.
"I'm Jaydee." She choked out.
"You ok? You look nervous."
"Well it’s my first day here and the only person I know is my brother....I get nervous talking to people."
"Well now you know me," he smiled "you want me 2 show you around?"
This made her smile and the redness in her cheeks slowly start to fade. "Yeah that would be great!"
"Okay cool, let me see your schedule." She handed him the paper and he glanced over the classes. As he read he began to laugh to himself.
"What's so funny?" Her face became red again.
"Somehow we have all but 1 class together and that's study hall. Your gonna get pretty sick of me." He smirked.
"I don't think that's possible." She muttered unaware that he heard her.
"What was that?" He laughed.
"Huh?....oh...uh...nothing." She stared down at her desk.

The day came to an end and Gerard walked Jaydee out of the big building. "Can I walk you home?" Gerard asked staring at his feet.
"I'm supposed to wait for my brother." His face dropped at her words. "But I might be able to ditch him. Just give me a second to tell him." She smiled up at him.
"Ok that's cool."
A few minutes later Frank stomped out with a livid look on his face.
"I hate this fucking school and every fucker who inhabits it! Can we just leave? I need to get
out of her now!" His face was bright red and his fists were clenched tightly.
"Oh...actually Frankie...I was gonna walk home with Gee."
"......you're fucking kidding right! Whatever..." He grumbled under his breath and stomped off.
"I'm gonna pay for that later." Jaydee sighed.
A small kid with glasses came running towards the two calling Gerard’s name. Gee sighed and closed his eyes already annoyed.
"What Mikey?"
"This school sucks! I don't wanna be a freshmen...can't you tell all the seniors to stop picking on me?" The boy asked hopefully.
"Oh come on where's the fun in that? Then I don't get to hear all the fun swirly stories." Gee laughed with a smirk on his face as he noticed that Mikey was drenched in water.
"But they're your friends!!! Tell them to stop or I swear to god Gerard!"
"What do you mean my friends?" Gerard’s laughs slowly began to fade.
"Ray and Bob!" Gerard started to laugh yet again.
"Dude just walk home and shut up ok?" He tried to catch his breath.
"Fine but I'm telling mom you ass!" Mikey stomped back with the same anger as Frank had earlier.
Gerard slowly took Jaydee’s hand and began walking home.
"So what do you think about high school so far?" He asked
"I think I like it a lot more that I met you."
"Well now I just feel special" he flashed a pearly white smile. "So do you have a boy friend back in New York?"
"Uh.....n-no....why?" She asked shocked and flattered.
"....I was just wondering I guess."
"Oh...well what about you....do u have a girlfriend?"
"......I did but it didn't end well." His voice was a straight monotone.
"Oh. Why what happen?" She looked up at his beautiful face.
"...I found her with another guy...things just went from there." He avoided her stare. His face was emotionless.
"What kinda things?" She pried
"Nothing would you drop it!" He spat.
Her hand slowly slipped from his and her face dropped. "....oh...uh...yeah sorry."
"...no...it’s fine... I didn't mean to yell I just don't like talk about that bitch." He slowly began to calm down.
"Do you mind if I asked her name?" She looked into his eyes.
"...Mariah." He said with a smirk.
