Gerard drove us to high school, glancing at me worriedly but I put on the radio to dispel any awkward silence and avoid a conversation. Gerard reached over and grabbed my hand as we pulled into school.
“I love you.” He whispered.
“I love you more.” I replied, taking my hand from his grasp. We couldn’t show our love here.
I went through school in a daze. My grades were dropping but I couldn’t care less. All I could think about was our relationship. Eventually school ended and I ran to my locker before I hurried out to meet Gerard by his car. His car that he was staring at in shock before shaking his head and throwing his messenger bag in the backseat, slamming the door and opening the drivers door so hard I swear he could’ve ripped it off the hinges however when he slammed the door and punched his clenched fists against the dashboard I found out why. Someone had carved ‘incest fags’ into the door. I felt my heard stop and my stomach dropped as a wave of nausea hit. I closed my eyes and swallowed it back before I too stormed to the car.
“Who the fuck did that?!” I yelled as soon as the car door slammed shut behind me.
“I don’t know,” he said, looking down. I could tell he was lying but decided to let it be for now.
“Just get us home.” I whispered. He nodded and started the ignition, driving us home. Luckily mom and dad were out so we were able to park the car in the garage.
He brushed past me on the way into the house, pushing me out of the way but I sighed and shrugged it off, that car was his escape and someone had carved… that into it.
“Mom and dad have gone away.” Gerard said, bringing me back from my thoughts.
“What?”
“They’ve gone away. For a week. Left after lunch. Something about getting home early from work after work and last minute decision.” He said, passing me the note and checking the envelope, counting how much money they had left for us. I nodded disinterestedly.
“Who scratched the car?” I asked. Gerard ignored the question, instead muttering to himself.
“That’s good; I can paint up the scratches. They won’t know.”
“Gerard!” I called out sharply, grabbing his face in my hands, crushing the note slightly. “Who. Scratched. The. Car.”
Gerard looked like a deer caught in the headlights and he looked down at the floor.
“Adriann,” he whispered. My hands dropped and I took a step back, eyes widening. “I saw him. He ran when he saw me watching. I couldn’t move though. I tried to but I couldn’t move to stop him.”
Tears immediately fell from my eyes. I sobbed and ran out the backdoor, climbing as quickly into the tree house leaving a bewildered Gerard following me.
“What the fuck Mikey?” I didn’t answer though; I looked straight into the window of the house next door, the window that looked straight into the tree house, the window that belonged to a room where I could currently see Adriann sitting at his desk, eyes glued to the computer screen. He seemingly got the feeling someone was watching him and not even a second later he was glaring straight at me, a sadistic smirk on his face. I didn’t have a chance to duck out of view. Adriann waved at me and more tears fell as I turned my back and climbed down the ladder, ignoring a confused Gerard and taking one last look up at the window Adriann now stood at. I saw Gerard look up and watched as realisation passed through his eyes. I continued on inside, Gerard soon following me. I ran up to my room and slammed the door, hearing Gerard lock the front and back doors as I proceeded to throw things around my room. The door opened and Gerard was by my side holding me close, whispering calming things in my ear. It didn’t work. I pushed him away.
“He fucking knows,” I screamed. “He knows. He fucking saw us screwing each other.”
“Mikey please just-”
“Do you know what will happen when he tells the whole fucking school?! And what about when our parents find out their fucking each other?”
“Jesus look just calm down.”
“Don’t you fucking dare tell me to calm down,” I snarled, rounding on him. “This will fucking ruin us. They’ll separate us! They’ll fucking send you away. This could put you in jail! This whole things illegal Gerard! They could get you for rape.”
“Don’t you think I know that?” Gerard suddenly shouted, finally raising his voice. “I know that ok. I’ve known it since we started this relationship. We have to keep calm about this, there’s no telling who he’ll tell, if anyone. If we lose our heads about this, more people will find out.”
My knees suddenly caved and I sat on the floor, rocking back and forth as sobs racked my body. Gerard dropped down beside me, pulling me into his arms.
“I love you yeah? More than I can say. I won’t let them take you away that easily.” He whispered into my hair, kissing my forehead. I nodded slowly as I was slowly overcome by exhaustion.
~~~~~~~~~~
I woke up not much later on my bed when the phone rang. Gerard was curled up behind me and I slipped out of his hold and dashed across to mom and dads room where the other phone was.
“Hello?” I asked groggily, running a hand over my face.
“Hello pretty.” Laughed the voice on the other end.
“What do you want?” I asked sharply.
“Aww baby there’s no need to take that tone with me.” Adriann purred.
“What do you want?” I asked more calmly, my voice even.
“You know that was quite a show you put on the other day in that tree house. So hot.” He whispered.
“Shut the fuck up.” I hissed.
“Make me,” He retaliated. “You know I still jack off to the image of you two together. I knew camera phones were such a good invention.”
I froze. “What are you talking about?”
“Oh did I not tell you? I got you two on film.”
I couldn’t say anything, I just stuttered, opening and closing my mouth, hoping to find the words to express how I was feeling. None came remotely close.
“Think about it sugar. Think about the amount of people who could find out with the click of a few buttons.”
“What do you want?” I asked, a whole different weight to my words.
“Why don’t you come on round and I’ll tell you,” he proposed. I stopped, looked at the clock, chewing my lip when his voice cut in again. “And stop chewing your pretty lips. Get over here in 10.”
I looked over at the window, wondering how he knew I was biting my lip. I jumped when I saw a face but mentally slapped myself when I saw in fact it was my own reflection. I glanced at the clock again. It was shortly after 3oclock. I couldn’t go round now surely. This was ridiculous. He couldn’t blackmail us. Then though, I remembered that he unfortunately could, because he had videoed us. I was tempted not to go, but if I didn’t would that just give him incentive to send the video and expose all our deceits and lies? Our lives and our most intimate moments? Expose our souls. I had to go.
Within 3 minutes I was stood outside Adriann’s front door. He ushered me inside.
“You’re lucky,” he said, “no parents are home tonight to hear us, to hear you.”
I shuddered, wishing I had woken Gerard up and told him where I was going, what I was doing, left a note saying where I was. Too late now.
Adriann led me down to the basement.
