Only One Way

I woke up about half an hour earlier than I usually do and just laid there for a couple of minutes feeling the butterflies in my stomach from thinking about the dream I had.

I was standing behind the desk at the store but it was dark out and then he was just..there. He leaned over the desk and grabbed my chin pulling me in for a kiss....... Oh I wish that could happen in real life!

I let out a loud sigh but then I remembered I'd be seeing him again today! I leaped out of bed and started rushing to get ready, even though I didn't have to be at the store until nine and it was only seven fourty-five.

I pulled on just a plain black t-shirt that would definetly show off my tattoos, wait did he seem like the kind of guy who would like tattoos?? I decided that if he wasn't then oh well, it's not like I can get rid of them even if I wanted to.

I put my lip ring in and decided to put on a little bit of eyeliner too but then I kept messing up and had to do it again.

By the time i got it perfect it was time to go, I looked in the mirror, "Not to bad Frank" I said to myself running my fingers through my hair then combing it with a comb cuz it looked too messy. I got my coffee and bolted out the door practically jumping into the car. I'd be lying if I said I didn't jam out to the radio all the way to the book store.

I kept humming and singing until around six, when he still hadn't come. I'd been sitting there all day like a kid on Christmas morning waiting to open the presents. I'd just given up hope that he was coming when he walked through the door and I'm sure my eyes lit up like fireworks because he laughed and asked "Happy to see me?" I blushed and looked down, he went over to the comics and picked out a few.

"They're for my brother" he said "He just got out of rehab and he's moving in with me." "Really?" I asked not sure how to respond "Yeah, he's pretty excited and I guess I am too, we're really close." "I've never had a sibling." I told him trying to keep the conversation going "On, it's pretty cool but like one minute you wanna kill them and the next you just love em to pieces."

I laughed and started ringing up the comics, when I was done he was staring at me with those gorgeous hazel eyes. "What?" I asked feeling my face reddin again. " Nothing, just, has anyone told you that your beautiful? " he asked and rubbed my pinky with his. "Um" I laughed nervously "i-uh um well actually" i stammered like an idiot, at a loss for words. "Well, I gotta go."

He said smirking and running his hands through his hair, the sight made my knees weaken. Damn he was so hot. "O-okay." I replied "See ya around." And he left and I grabbed my keys and I left. But for the next three days he came in and we flirted and talked and one time I even thought he was gonna kiss me, but he didn't. That was okay with me though for now anyways.

I got to work the fourth day after I meet Gerard waiting for six o'clock, (that's around the time Gerard liked to come) and after what felt like years it finally strolled around and I waited patiently, then I waited not so patiently and then the time to close the store came around and I kept it open another half hour, but still no Gerard. I held back tears as I walked to my car.

Besides, he probably just got busy and couldn't get here tonight, but he'd be here tomorrow. I comforted myself with the thought but when six forty-five rolled around the next night there still wasn't a Gerard or the night after that, or the night after that. It was like he just disappeared from the earth, or more importantly the face of MY earth.
