Dark Side of the Street
"Watch Your Back"
*Gerard's P.O.V*
(The day after the party)
I'm going to have to tell her that she can't be around me anymore, that I'm calling off the whole friends with benefits thing. I'm not good for her, she shouldn't love me. I drink all the time, I smoke like a chimney and every time she is seen with me or anything and anyone associated with me I put her in danger. What if Ben's gang did something to her? What if Mikey did last night? No he wouldn't, mom brought him up better than that, no means no. I should have gone into that room last night and stopped him, but...after what Kelly said...I don't know, I just turned around and walked down the stairs, through all the people, out the front door, into my car, came here to my apartment and sat in the dark until Frank got in. The thing is I love her too. The first time I saw her, I just got this feeling, I wanted to hold her and touch her and kiss her and reassure her and be there for her. I didn't want us sleeping together to be a one off thing, it meant something to me and now I know it meant something to her, so I came up with the whole friends with benefits thing. But I'm no good for her, I'm gonna have to tell her I can't do any of this anymore.
"GERARD" Frank shouted, pulling me out of my thoughts.
"What?" I asked, turning away from my sketch book to look at him.
"Do you have money for when the pizza guy arrives?" He asked.
"Oh, yeah sure" I said, getting up to walk to the mantel piece to get my wallet. I like living with Frank. He wanted to move out of his parents house and I had a spare room after mom ordered Mikey home so I thought "why not?".
"Are you drawing Kelly?" He asked, looking in my sketch book as I walked over to him. I looked into the sketch book too, the drawing looked just how Kelly did last night.
"I guess I am" I said, as he took the money.
Suddenly the front door slammed open with a loud bang. Standing in the doorway was Mikey.
"YOU" he shouted, his finger pointed at me.
Before Frank or I could comprehend what was happening Mikey had grabbed me and slammed me down into the table. The legs broke off the table at the force of which he had slammed me into it. He started to punch me. I could feel blood start to trickle down my nose. After a minute Frank was able to pull him off me and stood inbetween me and Mikey.
"WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS ABOUT MIKEY?" shouted Frank.
"THIS IS ABOUT HIM SLEEPING WITH KELLY WHEN HE KNEW DAMN WELL THAT I WAS IN LOVE WITH HER" Mikey shouted, not taking his eyes off of me as I sat up, my hand to my nose.
"YOU BROKE THE FUCKING DOOR AND TABLE JUST BECAUSE OF A GIRL!" shouted Frank.
"Oh no, this is for everything" he said, more to me than to Frank, through gritted teeth. "This is the last fucking straw Gerard, you better watch your back".
With that he turned around and headed towards the now broken door.
"Did you hurt her last night?" I asked him just as he was at the door.
He looked over his shoulder at me. "No means no Gerard, I'm not that kind of man" he said before walking out the door.
*Mikey's P.O.V*
I got into the car and drove to the only place I could think of. The house that I had spent endless times scoping out for Gerard. I pulled up infront of it and cut the engine. I got out and walked up the stone steps to the black door, pausing for a minute before knocking. The door opened after a minute and the occupant of the house looked surprised at first to see me there, but quickly composed themselves.
"Well, Well, Well. Michael Way, what can I do for you?" said Ben Little, leaning against the doorframe, a smirk on his face.
