Kill This Venom From My Heart

Gerard and I continue to make out until the yelling from downstairs gets too annoying and we reluctantly climb off the bed, both of us changing into sweatpants and tshirts before leaving the room and as we make it to the top of the stairs Gerard steps behind me and rests his hands on my shoulders, pushing on them as he jumps up and I reach down and grab his legs, helping him settle on my back as I keep walking, carrying him downstairs. "Jeez it's about time" Mikey scoffs as we enter the room and Gerard removes one arm from around my neck to flip him off before hopping down off me and he takes a seat beside his mom as I ask if anyone would like a drink. While I'm in the kitchen I call for pizza, ordering a wide selection before grabbing everyone's drinks and making my way back into the living room where Gerard is in deep conversation with his mom and dad and Mikey is staring wide eyed at Ryan while the guys screw around setting up guitar hero.

As the afternoon turns to night the guys are fairly drunk and Mikey managed to convince his parents to let him have a drink and he's tipsy, the guitar hero battle still going strong but the playing getting worse and worse. Gerard takes his parents upstairs to show them around the house and I go into the kitchen with all the empty bottles, throwing them in the trash and when I come back into the living room Ryan and Mikey are curled up together on the couch in the corner completely ignoring the other guys and I smirk to myself before clearing my throat loudly and they jump slightly as they pull further apart and look in my direction. "Hey guys, what's going on?" I ask as I walk over and squeeze myself into the space between them on the couch, Ryan glancing at me awkwardly before looking away and Mikey glaring daggers at me. "Nothing" Ryan says before excusing himself and standing up, crossing the room and disappearing down the hallway. Once he's gone I turn my attention to Mikey, raising my eyebrow at him and his expression softens to a frown as he says "Look it's not any of your....." "My band isn't going to be destroyed by jailbait" I cut him off to tell him and he scoffs and says "What about you and Gerard?" "That was completely different, Gerard was only a few months off being of legal age, not a few years plus I knew Gerard could keep it to himself, I know you won't be able to help but run your mouth the first chance you get." Mikey's frown turns to a glare again as he opens his mouth to speak but he's cut off by his parents and Gerard coming back into the room and Gerard looks at us skeptically, making me smile as I stand up and cross the room to him. "Hey beautiful" I greet him before pressing my lips to his and then pulling away, continuing my path out the door, in search of Ryan who I find smoking on the back doorstep. "I know what you're going to...." Ryan starts but I cut him off by saying "He's fifteen Ry." "What?" He asks, his mouth dropping open and I shake my head as I say "I'm not hypocritical enough to condemn you for what I've done myself but he's so much younger and he's one of those typical fans that you thought Gerard was." "He said he was almost seventeen" Ryan tells me, shaking his head to himself as he exhales his last lungful of smoke, flicking his stubbed out cigarette butt onto the lawn before standing and following me back inside.
