~ Chapter Two ~

This week went like hell. We were always moving from house to house, to pick all the things we wanted. I had just discovered that we were going to travel in the same bus of MCR, and I snaped Brian on the back of his head.
- You slut, you weren't going to tell me? - I asked, laughing at his face.
- Yeah, I wasn't, bitch. I wanted you to take those silk short pyjamas, so you could be shy for a while - he said, making me laugh.
- Just because you said it, I'm going to take only that to wear at night. If I die with some stupid disease for being freezed, it's better you know it was all your fault! - I screamed in his face, laughing. He laughed along.
- You don't have the guts to wear them - he said, getting on the point he shouldn't.
- Oh, I can't? You wanna bet?
- Not with that... that will take too long. I challenge you to wear the shortest dress you have today, on stage. I really wanna see how you rock with that. - He challenged me.
- Ok. If I do it, you'll have to sleep on the couch for a week; if I don't, I'll sleep on the ground, with any blankets - I said. - You wanna keep the bet?
- Oh, hell I do! - He said, and we shook hands. - Remember: a deal is a deal.
- Oh, brother, I always remember that.

We were just waiting for Phillip to come pick us up. Jacey was already with him, and we were going to the place were the show would be. I had my "short red goth dress":http://www.gothic-revival.co.uk/red%20moulin%20dress%20small.jpg on my suitcase, and just wanted to dress it to see Brians face. I laughed on the back seat of Phillips rented car, thinking of my brother sleeping on the couch of the tour bus. I hoped it had a couch. I laughed harder, imagining him sleeping on the ground.
- What's so funny? - Brian asked on my ear.
- Oh, just wondering what it will be like to see you sleeping on the couch - I replied, smiling.
- Oh, really? You woun't dare, I know it - he said. Then, he kissed my cheek, and started tickling me.
- Ah-ah-ah, stop, Bry! We look like boyfriend and gi-gi-girlfriend! - I said, laughing and barely breathing. He wouldn't stop, anyway.
- Hey, you two back there, we've arrived - Phillip called us.
- Saved by him - he said, pointing to Phil.
- Yeah, she was saved. I still have some make-up to do, since Phil wouldn't let me finish it at home... Could we go? - Jacey said, looking mad at Phillip, while me and Bry got out of the car.
- Yeah, I still have to change my clothes and put some make-up on.
- See you on stage - Brian said, looking like 'You won't do it'.
- Yeah, see you there - I replied, smiling.
Me and Jacey went backstage to get ready, while the guys went to the stage. I had five minutes to dress up and do my make-up.
- What's up with the dress? - Jacey asked. - Not that you don't look good, but I never saw you wearing a dress on stage...
- A bet with Brian - I said, knowing she would understand.
- Of course - she replied, laughing.
- I gotta go. See you in three minutes, Hurricaney - she said, making me smile.
Since I was a young girl, my mom had always called me Hurricaney, 'cause I couldn't stand quiet for a second, and I would destroy everything around me in no-seconds. "You look like e little hurricane" she said once, to me. "Yeah, you're Hurricaney from now on". I had always loved that nickname, and everyone around me knew it. I looked at the clock. One minute.
I was in the back of the stairs were I would go onto the stage, and I was hearing the fans screaming, as the lights were off and they could only see the sillouetes of Phil, Jacey and Bry. I saw the lights turning on, first for Bry, then for Jacey, and then to Phillip.
- Time to go up - I heard on my earphone. After that note, I took it off. I always did.
I got up on stage with my tiny dress, and turned to Brian to smile at him.
- One week on the couch, baby! - I said on the mic. The fans screamed.
- Hi, everyone! How are you tonight? - They screamed again. - Isn't it a fucking good night? - I heard a 'yes'. - Well, it's better now, 'cause I just won a bet against Brian, and he'll sleep on the couch for the rest of the week! - The fans laughed. - But now, let's start this fucking show, shall we?
The fans were always screaming, and I could see some boys checking me out. I didn't even bother about it. I was just feeling the music. We played 'Loneliness' first, then 'Burns You All', after that 'Waste It (On You)', and saved a little time for our new song.
- Well, people, are you enjoying tonight? - I asked, calmly. But the fans couldn't help but scream 'YES'.
- yeah, that's good, 'cause we got something new for you... We decided: if we're going to our first fucking tour, shouldn't we surprise the fans? And I wrote another song. We agreed in giving something softer to you, so, we hope you like it - this time, the fans were silent.
Phillip started playing the acoustic guitar, and I closed my eyes, while standing in front of the microphone. Then, I just started singing.

It is a sick morning,
A crazy afternoon,
A shit of a night,
And I’m stuck in my room.

Crying for all the things
That you made me go through.
I looked for my lost bruises,
Just trying to find you.


Is this a love song
Of a chemical romance?
Is this the search
For my lost romance?
Or is this
Another fucking day?


I went out for a bit,
And I still saw your face.
I burned everything around,
Just running away.

I found that I couldn’t run.
I was stuck on that place…
On the place I have first
Seen your teary face.


Is this a love song
Of a chemical romance?
Is this the search
For my lost romance?
Or is this
Another fucking day?


I wanted to cry, scream, die.
I wanted to just try.
But you weren’t there to help…
I needed to get safe…
Why weren’t you there?


Is this a love song
Of a chemical romance?
Is this the search
For my lost romance?
Or is this
Another fucking day?

When I finished, the fans were all screaming, and I could see some were eventually crying. I sang my heart out, always with my eyes closed, and even I was crying a bit.
- Thank you lot. This song is called 'My Lost Romance'... Did you enjoy? - I asked, smiling.
'Yeah' was echoing from everywhere. I heard someone in the front row saying 'I Love You, Chloe', and I smiled.
- I love you too, whoever you are. In fact, I love you all! We love you all! Thanks for making us who we are! Goodbye, suckers! - I said, walking back.
Me and the other members from my band said goodbye, and got off of the stage. I could feel that my make-up smeared, and I knew I must look like... I don't even know. We found My Chemical Romance on our way back to our room, and Gerard looked at me awkwardly. They got up on stage, while we were backstage, talking about the show.
- Fuck, there were like... more than a thousand people there! They were so many... Oh, my Gosh! If I was the singer, I wouldn't be able to sing. How did you do it? - Jacey asked, smiling. I was kinda absorted on my thoughts.
- Hum, I just did - I replied, looking at the door, expecting it would open, not knowing why.
- Hey, Chloe! - Brian called. I composed and looked at him.
- Yeah, slut?
- Hum, do I really have to sleep on the couch? - He asked, making a face of an angel.
- Always remember, brother: a bet is a bet - I said, making everyone laugh.
- Yeah, okay then. How could you wear that on stage? - He asked, looking angry at my dress.
- Hey, don't blame the dress! - I said, laughing and going to his lap. - Brother, you dared me... You know I always do what I say. You shouldn't have challenged me. You already knew this would happen.
- Yeah, I was hoping you would be afraid... But okay, a bet is a bet, anyway - he said, smiling. I kissed him on the cheek, and hugged him. Suddenly, the door opened.
- Hum, sorry for interrumpting, but we're going to a party tonight, and we wanted to know if you wanted to go... It's nothing big, but it would be fun. And since it was your first show on tour, it would make sense if you came to celebrate... - Gerard Way was saying, from the door. He looked with a strange disappointed look at me and Brian, and was talking to control his face. I laughed, and he looked at me.
- Yeah, we wouldn't miss it for nothing. Let's go? - I said, turning to my friends. They nodded, and I got up from Brian's lap, hugging him by his waste, while he rounded my shoulders with his arm.
We followed Gerard, until the moment I understood we weren't introduced.
- Hey, Gerard, is the rest of your band there, too? - I asked, slighlty touching his back.
- Yeah, they are - he said, emotionless.
We got to the spot where the other member from MCR were, and I smiled.
- Hi there - Frank said, coming to introduce himself. - I'm Frank Iero, but I assume you already knew that - he completed, smiling.
- Yeah, and that's Ray, Mikey and Gerard. We know it - I said, smiling and making them smile, except for Gerard. - Now, let me introduce ourselves. I'm Chloe, this is Brian, that is Jacey, and that is Phillip. I assume you saw us playing. - Everyone around me laughed, again except for Gerard. He really didn't look like in the mood to laugh and smile.
- Yeah, in fact we did, and you were tottaly awesome. That new song was just amazing. Here our boy Gerard almost cried, too - Mikey said, laughing. Gerard looked away. - Yeah, it would be nice if you just say something to them, brother - Mikey said, not noticing Gerard was a bit frustrated.
- Excuse me - Gerard said, and walked away.
- That's not what I meant... - Mike said, low.
I started following Gerard, but Brian grabbed my arm lightly.
- Where are you going? - He asked, suspicious.
- After Gerard... I think I might know why he is like that - I replied, and Bry nodded letting go of my arm.
I walked through the club we were in, and eventually left it. I found Gerard outside, leaning on the wall beside the wall, staring at the full moon.
- It's a beautiful night, isn't it? - I asked. Gerard didn't answer me. - I love looking at the moon, especially when I'm confuse or mad about something - I said, poking him. He side-looked at me.
- I'm just here 'cause it's too hot inside the club. Nothing else - he said, slightly mad.
- Yeah, right, Gee. You've been like that since you saw me and Brian in our room. Are you jealous?
- Have you just called me Gee? - He asked, confused.
- Yeah, it's cuter. Now, don't try to distract me. Are you jealous, Gerard? - I asked, determined. He looked to my face, and looked to the moon again.
- Why lie? Yeah, I'm fucking jealous. When you sang on stage, I fucking felt like a hurricane was there, and that really touched me. I felt something for you, and when I saw you backstage, I fell back to reality. It's so obvious you two are together, like, for years! - He vented, making me laugh. He looked at me.
- In one thing you got it right: me and Brian are together for years! - I said, laughing harder.
- Yeah, I just told you I'm in pain because of you, and you just laugh! - He replied exasperated.
- Easy Gee... Of course we're together, he's my fucking twin! - I laughed so hard that I sat on the ground, leaning on the wall.
- You're serious? - He asked, looking at me hopeful.
- Yeah... we were much more look-a-like when we were younger... But when we reached our teenage years, that changed, only God knows why.
Gerard smiled, and I could see the hope on his face. When he saw me looking at him, he flushed and looked away, to hide his eyes and his red cheeks.
- You don't have to hide your face, Gee. Just sit here with me for a while - I asked, and, strangely, he actually sat.
- I really fucked every chance I might have with you when I said all that about the hurricane and that, didn't I?
- No, in fact you didn't... My mom used to say I looked a lot like a hurricane, and even called me 'Hurricaney'... I love hurricanes since then - I said, smiling and crying at the same time.
- Why are you crying, Chloe? - Gerard asked, sorrounding my shoulders with his arm.
- Hum, my parents died when I was twelve, and yet I still miss them - I explained, trying to not get too into the story. He kissed my cheek and cleaned my tears.
- Do you see those two bright stars together, over there? - He asked, pointing to the sky. I nodded. - Those are your parents. They're looking over you every day and every night. They will never leave you alone, they'll be always there for you. And when you miss them, just look into the sky, and you'll see them - Gerard completed, making me lean my head on his shoulder, smiling.
- Thank you, Gee. Thanks a lot - I replied.
I turned to see his face, and realized that he was gorgeous. I had always known he was a hottie, but, right now, I could see the really beauty that was hidden inside him. He was pretty sweet, too. I tried to look into his eyes, but he was difficulting it, since he wasn't looking at me. I pulled his face and turned his eyes to mine. His eyes were hazel, and I had always loved that colour, don't know why. Besides, his eyes were so touching... I felt like I could see his soul through them, despite he was trying to hide it. He tried to look away, but I stopped him.
- Don't - I whispered. Then, I kissed him softly on his lips.
Gerard's lips were the sweetest thing I had ever tasted. And, believe me, I had tasted a lot of things before. But his lips were just so soft, smooth, just like silk. I couldn't help but kiss him more, wanting more of that mixture of chocolat and honey, with some extra sugar. Suddenly, he left my lips.
- Why... - I tried to ask, but he shutted me by putting a finger on my lips.
- I can't breath - he said, smiling and breathing deeply.
He kissed me again, and I heard the door open, but wouldn't move.
- You birdy lovers, let's go home... besides, let's go the buuuuuuuuus - I heard someone drunk saying. Then, I realized it was Brian's voice.
I got away from Gee's lips, and got up instantly.
- What the fuck, Bry? Have you forgotten our promise? WHAT THE FUCK GOT INTO YOU? - I screamed, shaking him so hard I almost crashed his bone. Gerard came to hug me by my waist, calming me down. Brian just laughed.
- We were twelve when we made that promise, little sista! It's time to let it go! Deal with it!
