Another Fivtive Romance, chapter 7
"Hello?"
"Hi it's me," a recognizable voice answered.
"I didn't think you would call," I said and got up to go somewhere where it wasn't that much noice around. Lilly and Vicky looked both at me with an understanding smile.
"Well I wanted to speak to you again."
I blushed and didn't really know what to say to answer that. He seemed to be a really sweet guy. He continued:
"I never did tell you my name."
Here it comes, I thought.
"No," I said
"Do you want to meet up somewhere?"
"Sure," I said shaking a bit.
"Go to the small entrance by the west side of the area. I'll meet you there."
"Ok, but how will I recognize you?"
"I still wear the same clothes as this afternoon."
"Ok then. See you there stranger," I said with a smile.
"Bye," he said and hung up.
His voice had sounded so safe and calm that I had forgotten to be nervous in the end.
I started walking towards the area that we had said we would meet and I quickly saw him even though he had the same look as most of the other visitors. Maybe it was the big sunglasses that made him unique. He smiled and came walking towards me and pulled me into a big hug. I smelled his special smell of male perfume, new clothes and a bit of sweat. His hair was more messy now and my heart jumped and if I had watched him a bit longer, maybe I had figured out all by myself who he was.
"Nice to see you again Becky," he said.
I smiled.
"Same to you."
He started walking towards the entrance and outside the area a while and I followed him with quick steps. He lit up a cigarette and looked even cooler than before.
"My name is Gerard," he said after a while.
That's when I fully saw it, that's why he was wearing sunglasses everywhere, it wasn't for fun or to look cool. It was to hide from all the obsessive fans ready to jump his bones to get an autograph.
"Now I see that," I said slowly. "You're from My Chemical Romance aren't you?"
He nodded and took of his sunglasses so I could see his eyes for the first time. Even though it was dark outside I could see them glow with a special light.
"But then why are you talking to me?" I couldn't help but ask that question. It had bothered me for some time now. Why would any good-looking guy bother talking to me?
He locked my eyes and said, "You really don't know, do you?"
"What?"
"Have you ever looked yourself in a mirror, or don't they have that kind of glass in Sweden?" he looked serious as he said that.
I was confused but understood where he was going.
"Of course they have mirrors. I just don't like my reflection."
Gerard just shock his head and the place we were going was the backstage area I noticed as we approached it and he picked up his pass card from his pocket and gave it to the guard.
"She's not getting in here," the guard said with a serious look on his face.
"She's my friend and I can bring as many friends as I want in here. It says so in the rider and the contract your festival has signed."
"Wait here," he said and went away to leave all the work to the other guards standing there.
"They always have to make a fuss of this process," Gerard said and rolled his eyes and then gave me a smile.
I was glad that it was dark so he couldn't see me blushing, I didn't even know why. While I was thinking:
"I wonder if he would like me as much after he knows that I'm not that experienced as I looked..."
"Hi it's me," a recognizable voice answered.
"I didn't think you would call," I said and got up to go somewhere where it wasn't that much noice around. Lilly and Vicky looked both at me with an understanding smile.
