Kill This Venom From My Heart

"What the fuck are you doing here?" I snap, Jamia taking a step towards me and I notice the bruise on her cheek along with the tear tracks on her skin and her red swollen eyes. "I had no where else to go....." "You can't be here, we have a restraining order against you." "Please Frank...." "No, you need to leave before I call the police." Jamia starts crying again as she says "Don't you remember a time where you loved me?" "Yeah I do but that doesn't mean shit, it didn't mean shit to you then and it doesn't mean shit to me now after everything you've done, especially to Gerard. Now get lost." Jamia lets out another small sob before turning away and I step back and close the door, locking it again before I make my way back to Gerard who is now sitting up on the couch with a cushion cuddled to his chest. "What happened?" He asks and I sigh as I sit beside him again and say "She was crying and had a bruise on her cheek, she wanted to stay but...." "Maybe we should have helped her?" "Babe" I say softly and he shrugs and says "If she's been hurt, I feel bad that's all." "Baby are you forgetting what she did?" "No, I know it's stupid but...." Gerard trails off and I pull him over into my side, both of us falling silent as we just sit together, the movie still playing in the background.

The next morning I get up early, reluctantly leaving Gerard's naked body sleeping in my bed and I go into the bathroom, taking a quick shower and getting ready for the interview and live performance the band has scheduled for today. By the time I go into the bedroom to pull my shoes on Gerard is just waking up and I can't help myself, climbing onto the bed and straddling his waist as I lean down and press soft kisses all over his face. Gerard giggles and playfully pushes me away and I roll off him, settling on the mattress beside him as he slides over and half lays ontop of me. "You smell really good" he tells me as he cracks his eyes open, sitting back slightly and taking in my appearance. "You going somewhere?" He asks and I smile as I say "Yeah we have this live performance thing today, I didn't want to wake you for something so dumb but now that you're up, did you wanna come with me?" Gerard nods, letting out a small yawn as he says "I love seeing you play, how long do I have to get ready?" I glance over at the clock as I say "You have about half an hour." "Alright I'm gonna jump in the shower then." "I'll watch" I tell him and he chuckles at me as we climb off the bed together, Gerard grabbing a clean pair of jeans and boxers before stepping over to the closet and grabbing one of my shirts before we go into the bathroom. Twenty minutes later Gerard is showered and dressed and we head downstairs hand in hand, getting in the car and heading towards the office where the interview is being held.
