Kiss The Ring
To The Last Parade, When The Parties Fade, And The Choice You Made, To The End
Gerard's POV
"And the moment you've all been waiting for is finally here....it's time to announce Belleville High's Prom King and Queen."
The crowd busted into a load roar as they all migrated to the front of the stage. The gang and I sat in the back making fun of how arrogant the nominees were as they made their way across the stage. "You know, I'm glad that dumb plan of ours fell through. I'd die standing up there with those creatures." I flipped my hair out of my eye to get a better glimpse of the battle of the beasts before it began. They all stood up there with the phoniest smiles on their faces as if they were happy for each others nomination when really I knew they were tearing each other apart in their minds.
"Yeah...totally dumb.", Ri said in a weird tone. She saw me raise my brow at her and she shifted in her seat towards Bob. I smirked and went back to watch the revolting halftime show of the night.
"Belleville, your prom queen is....Frank Iero!", Principle Edison said with a questionable look across his face. Frankie ran up to the stage to grab his sash and tiara, which he always had an obsession with, and grabbed the mic. This was about to be a fucking shit show if I had ever seen one.
"Oh my god. I...I don't even know what to say. I want to thank each and every one of you for allowing...I'm sorry I can't stop crying I'm so happy...I want to thank you for allowing me to hate you so much over the last few years of my life because look at where I am now, queen of all you bitches!" He flicked off the crowd and jumped off stage. He ran back to the table high fiving all of us.
"Oh my god Frankie, that was fucking amazing! The valley girl voice-peeeeeerfect!", Tay said nearly falling out of her seat. We all wiped our tears and awaited the next winner.
Edison cleared his throat and approached the mic, "Thank you Mr. Iero for your colorful acceptance speech. Now ladies and gentlemen, it is now time to reveal your prom king!" The crowd erupted again, but this time the tone was more worried than excited. The nominees stood there in disgust as they realized their queen was now a male. "And your Belleville High prom king of 2000 is....Gerard Way!"
The gang all jumped up and cheered as I sat there with the look of sheer shock on my face. These fuckers rigged the ballot. I walked to the stage to claim my glory, I looked out at the student body and smirked. I signaled Frankie to the stage with me, when he got up there he locked onto my hand and kissed my cheek. "Now, I don't have much to say to you and I'm sure as hell not gonna thank your asses. But there is one thing that I've been waiting to say since freshman year, and that's suck my dick for all the shit you all gave me. So fuck you and goodnight." I dropped the mic and trotted back to my table where I was welcomed with fuck yeah's, bear hugs, and high fives. I sat down as they grinned at me innocently. "Oh don't worry, I fucking hate you for this." They exploded with laughter and ignored my claim.
"We had to do it! They were just as shocked as we thought they would be! It was pure perfection.", Ri said as she hugged me around my neck, "First gay couple for prom court, nice surprise I do say so myself." I had to agree with her. No one ever would've guessed that we'd win the crown much less even be nominated. I kind of felt good, hopefully this will open doors for future couples like us.
**2 day time lapse**
"Would you guys stop crying, please?", I groaned as Bob, Ray, Tay, Ri, and I lined up in the front yard for pictures. Our moms and Rosaline were being hysterical, tears and snot everywhere. I was already frustrated because it was hot as fuck and these big ass robes weren't making it any better.
"I'm sorry baby, it's just...I can't believe...this day is here!", she said crying even louder. I rolled my eyes and signaled Mikey to take over. In no more than five minutes, Mikes had taken all the pictures my mom had attempted to take in an hour.
After that was done, all went inside to have a few brews before the ceremony. "Hey Gee, you gonna be able to handle walking across stage without having a heart attack?", joked Ray. I punched him in his arm and ducked before he could get me back, causing him to punch Bob and in a matter of minutes, they were on the floor wrestling while their moms shouted that they were gonna rip their gowns. The rest of us sat back and just laughed as the two baboons tore each other apart.
Before we knew it, it was that time. We all walked across the field to find our name plated seats, this was the only time in my life that I hated my last name. We got seated and waited for the rest of our class to show up, to pass time we decided it be fun and immature to play the penis game in the enclosed stadium. I won every round because they chickened out when we got too loud, but I didn't give a fuck. Every chair was finally filled and the beginning of the end began to unfold.
"Kyle Waterson."
It was about two hours in and I was nodding off in the back row when I realized I was almost up. I shook my hair out and rubbed the crust out of my eyes. Here we go.
"Gerard Way."
I walked across the stage as fast as I could, but it still felt like an eternity. I grabbed my diploma, shook Edison's hand and rushed off stage. I looked to my right as I walked back to my seat and gave my mom, Mikey, Frankie a thumbs up while mouthing "fuck yeah." They all clapped in excitement and Frankie blew me a kiss. The end didn't feel so bad after all.
After all was said and done, we all met back at my house for the after party. We all got wasted as we rocked out to some Misfit records and played video games. I raised my beer and did that spoon tapping shit they did at weddings, "Here's to my fucking friends who have been by my side no matter what. And to the love of my life Frankie, I love you with everything I am. It's been one hell of a year, but we got through it. Thank you for never completely giving up on me." They all applauded as Frankie and I shared a passionate kiss, "Now fucking cheers to summer '00, because its gonna fucking rock!" We all collided our bottles and chugged whatever was left in them.
It was time to kick this shit into gear and I was fucking ready for it.
