Dark Side of the Street
The Apartment
*Kelly's P.O.V*
I walked into the apartment behind Mikey. It was small, from what I can see anyway. We were standing in the living room. It was a dark kind of room, brown walls and carpet, with a black couch and fireplace. The wooden table, which was covered with comics and notepads, and the hand drawn pictures that were pinned to the table were the only things brightening up the room.
Mikey walked into another room and came back out with a full glass and handed it to me.
"Its just water" he said with a smile, seeing the concerned look on my face.
"Thanks" your replied, taking the water.
The whole time I felt someone's eyes on me. I looked over at Gerard briefly and saw him staring at me intently. "What's his problem" I thought as I looked away from him. He doesn't look angry or mad or anything really, just blank, lost in thought.
"Take a seat" Mikey said. "I'll try not to be long".
With that,him a Gerard turned and walked into the kitchen, leaving me in the bleak living room.
-------
A couple of minutes later the kitchen door opened and Mikey came racing out, went straight to the front door and left. I stood up to leave too when I heard someone behind me.
"He'll be back up in a minute" said Gerard."He just has to get something"
"Oh, okay" I said, turning to face him. He was leaning against the doorframe, his arms crossed across his chest. He was looking at me the same way as before.
"You can sit back down" he said. I did just that.
It felt awkward so I decided to break the ice by asking about the drawings around the room.
"Did you-". At that very moment Mikey walked back into the apartment and walk straight into the kitchen. Gerard followed and the door slammed behind them.
Confused, I decided to find out what is going on. There is no way they would just tell me if I asked them, and I wouldn't dare ask in the first place. I got up,walked over to the door and pressed my ear against it.
"You are going to break into that warehouse and you are going to take everything that is in there" I heard Gerard say angrily.
"Why me?" Mikey asked.
"Because I said so, that's why" replied Gerard. "They put Ray in hospital. We need to hit them where it hurts and taking everything from the warehouse is going to do that. You're not going to be alone, Frank will be with you"
"Why can't you do it?" asked Mikey.
"Because I just CAN'T" replied Gerard even more angrily.
Suddenly I heard a cough from behind me. I turned around to see Frank Iero standing there, looking at me.
"Gerard" He called.
The kitchen door opened and Gerard walked out accompanied by Mikey.
"What do you want, we were in the middle of something" Gerard said, looking at Frank.
"I found her", he pointed at me, "with her ear to the door listening in on your conversation" he said.
It all happened too quickly that I really didn't know how to react. Gerard had grabbed my wrist, so that I could not get away from him and started shouting at me.
"YOU LITTLE WHORE" he shouted. "WHAT DID YOU HEAR?".
He shook me. "TELL ME BITCH"
It was obviously showing on my face how scared I was because suddenly Mikey pulled Gerard away from me and pushed him up against the wall, holding him there with his elbow as Gerard tried to get out of his hold.
"LEAVE HER ALONE" he shouted at him. "CAN'T YOU SEE YOU'RE SCARING HER?"
Gerard looked at me, saw the tears that were now starting to stream down my face and stopped wriggling. He looked down at the ground. Mikey let go of him and walked towards me, took my hand and pulled me out the door.
