Cool Kids

Sweat was tripping from her body.
"Just one more time everybody!" the little but strong girl shouted.
"Alright class! Good job, see ya next week!".
The people were clapping and making their way out of the room, away from their hard but joyful Trainer.
As everyone left she gathered up her things and left for the next hours of sweating.
But not in the gym, up on a stage.

"Boooys, you'll never guess what we're donig tonight!" Ray said excited and sat down to his group of friends on the ground around the coffe table.
His big hair was bouncing and he beamed at them.
"Go see Monstertrucks!" - "eating everything we can without paying in the stores?" - "Making gross Pancakes?"
the other three Guys shouted.
"Ehhp, wrong! And I won't tell. It will be a lot of fun even for you, Gee!" the adressed man looked up, a shyly half-true half-faked smile crossed his lips and he let his raven black hair fall over his eyes. He wasn't sure of what to think about that.
Soon it was time for the group to leave. "Won't be driving tonight!" the youngest and shortest of them, Frank screamed, running to the car and occupied the passenger seat.
"Yeah that's alright I wanted to anyways. Have work tomorrow" Ray replied and taking the drivers seat. The Way Brothers had to take the back seats.
The younger brother, Mikey, bounced up and down.
"Gee I'm so excited, what could it be, huh? Aren't you excited? Geeerrward!!" He poked his brothers cheek. "Don't know it yet..." was the only thing Gerard said until they got to their target.

Ray held the door open and led the others into a club. The inside was comfy and looked like it was stuck in the twenties. "Ray what the fuck?!" Frank exclaimed.
"Ya know this club opens tonight and my old neighbor is taking part in the opening show and I haven't seen her in a while so I figured we'll just watch her performance and I can introduce her to you. She came back from travelling and we meet up this week anyway, but I wanted to surprise her." Ray grinned. "She is really passionate about this dancing stuff, but I was never allowed to see her so that's the other reason."
"I want to sit near the stage!" Mikey pushed through them and headed into the club.
"What can I get you guys?" the waitress asked as their sat down. "Ehm, three beers and a coke" Frank orderd with a questioning look to the others.
"Okay, make sure you check out our card. We have some great snacks and awesome cocktails on there" She winked and made her way to the bar.
Gerard let his glance wander through the club. He was amazed. Everything looked old an beautiful. He was definitely comfortable. Still. He remembered Ray talking about that Girl.
His heart sank. Meeting new people wasn't excactly his thing, but he had to. Unless he wanted to hide under the table. No that's not an option. A light giggle snapped him out of thoughts.
All eyes were on him and he could feel the heat creeping up his face.
"Up in the clouds again, huh Gee?" Frank grinned at him. "What were you thinking about?" "Nothing" mumbled Gerard and took a sip from his beer. He hadn't even noticed that the waitress brought it. Frank opened his mouth, wanting to tease him but the sudden music stopped him. Gerard sighed in relieve and the men turned their anttention to the stage.
"Ladies and Gentlemen! Welcome to the polarial Night Club in New York City!"
A fast swing song started to play and a group of Dancers entered the stage.
The lighting changed between a cold blue, red and pink. Their outfits sparkled and glitterd and they seemed so happy and energetic.
Every move, every snap of their fingers was synchron and seemed so easy.
They took everyone under their spell. Especially four young men near the stage.
Among them a black haired shy guy, whose heart pounded in his chest and who felt like they were dancing just for him.

The cheering and clapping the dancers earned made them smile even wider.
Lynn's cheast lift up and down from the heavy breathing.
She glanced through the audience and noticed a man with big fluffy hair. He looked like Ray, but in the light she wasn't sure and soon she forgot about it.
Backstage she listened to the others joking around and tried to get dressed as soon as possible. She didn't even bother wiping off her extreme stage make up. She wanted to get home and sleep.

Rushing through the club guests she almost didn't hear someone callign out her name.
"Lynn!"
She stopped immidiately and turned around. Searching for whom they voice may belong.
A man with big fluffy hair got up and waved at her, she had seen him from the stage.
"Ray?" she walked up to him. "Ray, oh my God."
They hugged each other long and tight, inhaling the scent of the other.
As they pulled finally away Ray couldn't resist but laugh at her. "What?" Lynn asked confused. "Is something wrong with my face?" Everyone at the table broke into laughter and her confusion grew. "Actually" a guy she had never seen before started "Yes" another ended. Then she remembered. "Oooh... Yeah sorry about that. I didn't bother wiping the make up off." she shrugged. "It just doesn't fit her clothes" Gerard whispered into his glass hoping no one heard. Lynn turned her head in his direction "hmm?" Gerard opened and closed his mouth like a fish on land and started to panick.
"So uhm I wanted to introduce you to everyone. Why don't you sit down for a little?" Ray said, saving Gerard. "I don't know.." The young woman fidget at her jacket. "I have to get up really early tomorrow." "Just five minutes" Ray beged. She sighed and sat down between Ray and Frank. Gerard tried to hide his face and almost choked on his beer.
"Boys this is my old friend and neighbor Lynn. Lynn the shorty to your left is Frank Iero"
They grinned at each other an shook hands. "Next is Mikey Way" she grinned at him aswell and leaned over the table to shake his hand. "And last but not least his Brother Gerard Way."
Gerard tried to wipe off the sweat from his palms bevore taking her hand.
He looked directly in her eyes of friendliness and it wouldn't happen again this night.
At least she didn't notice the hidden curious glances from across the table.
Also she didn't notice the ticking clock and elapsing time.
