Bullet-Proof Heart
Wouldn't it be great if we were DEAD?
I woke up feeling a pair of strong arms around my waste. Oh no! I think. I sit up straight causing a massive pain in my head. I turn my head and see Gerard sleeping peacefully next to me.
"Gee." I whisper, nudging him carefully.
"Mmm?" he groans.
"Gee, wake up! I accidently stayed the night! My mom is gonna kill me!" I say more forcefully.
Gerard's eyes flutter open and he looks at me calmly, "Vanya, it's gonna be fine."
"No! My mom-"
"Shh, I'm so hung over."
I roll my eyes and jump off the bed and head out of the beedroom door.
"Vanya wait!" Gerard protests, but I keep walking.
I walk into my house and quietly close the door behind me. My mom is sitting on the living room couch.
"Did you have fun?" she asks in a strained voice.
"um, yeah" I mumble.
"Where were you last night? You didnt come home."
"I slept over at Charlotte's last night." I lie.
"I THOUGHT I TAUGHT YOU BETTER!" She shouts.
"What?"
"I SAW YOU LEAVING THAT BOY'S HOUSE TEN SECONDS AGO!"
"Mom, listen, we didn't do anything."
"HOW CAN I BELIEVE YOU?! YOU JUST LIED TO ME!"
"Mom I promi-"
"JUST GET OUT OF HERE!"
"Mom I swe-"
"GO!"
I run out of the house crying.
"Gee." I whisper, nudging him carefully.
"Mmm?" he groans.
"Gee, wake up! I accidently stayed the night! My mom is gonna kill me!" I say more forcefully.
Gerard's eyes flutter open and he looks at me calmly, "Vanya, it's gonna be fine."
