I had followed Gerard out and got into the passenger side of my papas car and tossed Gerard the keys. He started the car up and didn't say anything.  I wasn't sure where he was bringing me. I was afraid to ask. We started approaching the school and I snickered a little.

"You think I'm going to school?" I say and he looks over at me.

"Why not Elle?" He says and I look at him in total disbelief.

"I'm sorry did you not see what just happened?" I say and Gerard just looked at me. "and you shouldn't be going either, he's gonna have it out for you now." I say cringing a little.

"So fucking what?" Gerard tells me.

"Did you not hear your mom say that you have to graduate... that we have to graduate?" I say motioning between us. He just looked at me. "How the fuck are you gonna graduate with Mr. Samuel on your ass Gerard... I cant deal with it." I mumble. "I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't fucking suspend you the second you walk in!" I cry out.

"Okay first of all Elle...Calm down." He says pulling into the lot. He parked in the back and shut the car off and looked at me. I took a deep breath and waited for him to continue. "Secondly... Mr. Samuel is a guidance consular, he cant fucking suspend anyone." He says and I shake my head.

"He can tell Mr. Bonner." I start to say and Gerard smiles.

"He can tell him what Elle?" Gerard snickers a little. "He's not gonna want anyone to know what just happened, trust me." He says and I frown. "There's fucking rules and shit." He tells me nodding a little. "You don't know how many he's broken, believe me, he does not want Mr. Bonner finding out about this." He says and I think about it a little. It kinda made sense.

"What did he say before?" I ask and Gerard opens his car door and gets out.

"Before what baby?" He replies taking my bag from the back seat. I went to take it from him and he shook his head no and tossed it over his shoulder... He was gonna carry it for me.

"When you complained in detention." I say and I slip my arm around his as we walk towards the doors. He shrugged a little.

"Just the usual crap you'd expect." He says and I squeeze his arm a little. "What?" He looked over at me like he had nothing else to say. I let go of his arm and darted up the steps and opened up the door. I held it open and he looked at me. "What are you doing?" He chuckles a little.

"I'm holding the door open for you." I say smiling at him.

He gave me a weird look as he went by. "What cause of all those times I held it for you?"  He laughs.

"Yeah I'm trying to even out the score." I say following him in. I reach over and grab the back waistband on his jeans. He kinda reached around and pulled me in front of him, wrapping his arms around me.

"You know the only reason I would hold the door open for you was so I could look at your ass as you walked by." He whispers in my ear and I laugh a little.

"Oh really." I say pulling away from him. "And I thought it was cause your mom raised you so well." I laugh.

"Trust me baby. The only reason a guy would hold a door is so..." His voice trailed off. He was looking down the hall. I stood up on my tiptoes and followed his line of sight.

There was a girl. In front of my locker... trying to open it. She was not much taller than I was. She had strawberry blonde hair. I'm sure I've never seen her before. I would've definitely remembered her. Her hair came down to her waist and it was curly. She was kinda pretty in a real fresh off the farm way.

As we got closer she started banging on my locker...with her forehead.

"umm do you need help?" I ask her and she turns around and looks at me and Gerard.

"I cant get my fucking locker open." She says a little defeated.

"Mmm that's cause that's my locker." I say and I look over at Gerard, just to double check. He nods.

"What?" She says pulling a crumbled up paper from her pocket. "No this is fucking..." The girl starts talking to herself. She's looking at the number on my locker and looking at the paper in her hand and shaking her head a little. "Oh shit" she grumbles looking up at me apologetically.

"Oh don't feel bad I can never get it open either." I say smiling at her.

"I am so sorry." She tells us as she takes a step back.

"Is this your first day?" Gerard asks her and she nods. "Can I?" He asks her reaching for the crumbled paper she was holding. She nodded and he took it from her.

"Well actually its my second day... well yesterday I was only here a half a day so I don't know if that counts..." She stammers a little nervously.

"Laura Halverson." Gerard reads off her paper. She nods a little. "I'm Gerard Way." He says holding out his hand to her introducing himself. She smiled at him and shook it a little. Her eyes locked on his... Oh hell no... I've seen this movie too... New girl in school. Fucking meets sexy gorgeous guy with piercing eyes. He helps her with her locker...she cries about being homesick.. he leaves long time girlfriend to be with new girl... Oh fuck no... not gonna happen...

It was kinda like Gerard was reading my mind cause he grabbed me and wrapped his arms around me from behind.

"and this..." he says proudly. "This is the love of my life Elle Waller." He says and I blush a little.

"Hi." I say holding out my hand. She gave me the same look she gave Gerard. You know, looking right in my eyes. I think she was sincere.

"Yeah I think you're in my English class." She says and I frown.

"So you're the reason." I say waving my finger at her. She looked a little nervous.

"The reason?" She says hesitantly.

"The reason I got stuck with dumb and dumber yesterday." I say and Gerard smiles. "Fuck I thought it was strange there being an odd number of kids in class, we've always had even groups before." I say laughing a little.

"Umm would it help if I say I'm sorry I existed?" She suggests and I smile. I think I like her.

"Mmm  a little. " I tease and she smiles. "Well you could make it up to me by being my partner next time." I say and she nods. Gerard smiled at us. He seemed happy... I guess cause he knows I don't really have many 'girl' friends and I seemed to be getting along well with this Laura chick...Just then Ray and Bob came walking up. " Guys this is Laura Halverson." I tell them. "She's new from ummm.." I say not quite sure where she's from.

"I use to go to St Marys." She says and I nod. Oh that fucking catholic school across town. Will use to got there...

Laura was looking at Ray and Bob. "Oh that's Ray and Bob my-" I stopped myself. I was so use to calling Bob- 'Bob my husband' that I almost blurted it out.... Good thing I didn't though... Didn't want to freak out the new girl... I kinda liked her...

Mmm but more importantly judging by the way Bobs looking her over he may like her too... Ooooh. I think I may have found a girlfriend for my husband!

Gerard must've noticed the look in my eye. The one I get when I'm about to interfere. "Elle." He calls my name and I look at him. He holds out my book bag for me.

"Oh I'm sorry." Laura says realizing she still kinda blocking my locker. Gerard hands her her crumbled up paper back.

"Yours is uh actually down that hall and to the right." Gerard tells her pointing a little.

"Don't you know it's rude to point." I say pointing my finger at Gerard. He reached over and grabbed my finger and pulled it to his mouth and kissed it. I giggled a little as he ran his tongue along the tip. He bit down and I squealed a little. Laura kinda smiled at us.

"You guys are cute." She says.

"Yeah they're really something..." Bob mumbles. "Uh come on Laura." Bob says nodding towards her. "Well uh show you where your locker is." He says and Ray nods.

"Make sure you help her open it!" I call out as they walk away. Gerard rolls his eyes a little. "What?" I laugh. "These lock are hard." I tell him and he laughs.

I got my books out and Gerard walked me to home ec class. We were still on 'breakfast week'. Paul said I could be in charge of making the toast... Needless to say we had no toast... Just bread. I didn't know the fucking toaster wasn't plugged in. I was so worried to that I was gonna burn it, that I kept checking it every few minutes. The bread never seemed to be getting any darker...go figure...

When the bell finally rang I wasn't really surprised to find Gerard waiting for me so we could walk to study together. I was gonna tell him not to fucking start with this following me around crap but honestly. I was kinda worried...
I was worried for him... I know who's ever doing this wouldn't hurt me... I'm positive of that. And I know he doesn't want to admit it but the milk was meant for Lia. He keeps saying how would they know that, that I marked it and wasn't gonna drink it, but fuck they obviously know a lot about me... They knew what kind of flowers I like. They knew I was at that club. They knew my fucking bathroom lock was busted... So yeah I think they'd fucking know that that milk was Lias...

And they may not want to hurt me... but they sure weren't worried about Lia getting hurt... What about Gerard? I know he kinda blew over it that day but I meant it when I said he was the one thing standing in the way...
I was glad he was walking me to class... This way I  could keep and eye on him...

We went into study hall. I didn't see Jessica... maybe she fell down a well... That would be some good karma there...

Ah but no... here she comes... with Dave...

Gerard and I were standing in the back. I was using the phone. Trying to get in touch with Mrs. Alexander the accountant lady. I wanted to find out what the fuck was going on with those deposits my papa was making to Sing Sing... Her receptionist had me on hold for fucking ten minutes already... I couldn't pace since the phone cord is like six inches long so I just stood there shifting my weight from one foot to the other...

I kept looking at the door too...I was half expecting Mr. Samuel to come in and drag me back to his office. I mean this is usually about the time he does it every day... But he didn't... maybe he thought twice about it since he knew Gerard was here...

Finally Mrs. Alexander gets on the phone... What a fucking waste of time that was... She says its been going on for years but that she doesn't know why. I hung up a little disappointed. 

I didn't have to tell Gerard what she said. I mean I held the phone so he could hear her too...

"Well now what?" He says a little resigned.

"Mmm I guess I'll have to go to Pete's house." I say and Gerard looks at me like he doesn't know what the fuck I'm talking about. "To see his dad." I clarify. He continues to just look at me blankly. "His dads a cop.. Remember?" I say and I stand up on my tiptoes and check his eyes.

"What the hell you doing?" He laughs.

"Checking your eyes." I say and he pushes me back down. "What you were getting a little spacey there Gee." I tease him.

"What the hell is up with you, you're in a real mood today." He says and I laugh.

"I don't usually have sugar in the morning." I say and he shakes his head a little. "And umm some cute guy fed me a jelly donut this morning." I say, running my finger down his chest slowly. He smiled at me.

"So you think Petes dad is gonna what Elle?" he says grabbing my finger and stopping it from going any lower. I was almost at his belt buckle too damn it..

I shrug. "I don't know... He's gotta be able to tell me something about why they're locked up.. if that Hunter guy was really released or not. Something, anything, I don't know." I say and Gerard frowns.

"He's not just gonna give you all that.. There's rules and-"

"Rules and shit... I know." I interrupt him. "But you said it yourself, his dads a crooked motherfucker so..." I sigh a little and Gerard just continued to frown. "You wanna come with me?" I ask and he snickers a little.

"You know he doesn't like me." He says

"Pete or his dad?" I ask

"Both." He says plainly as the bell rang.

"Mmmm walk me to math class." I say taking his hand in mine.

As walk across the cafeteria towards the door Jessica’s glaring at me. I could see her, out of the corner of my eye... I mean if looks could kill...damn.  Gerard hadn't said word to her all class, and she was defiantly not happy about it...

She was not happy at all...
