That morning I woke up to Gerard looking straight down at me. “What the h**l are you doing?”
“I was watching you sleep, you looked so prettiful.” He smiled.
I smiled back. “Can you please get off me? You’re draining my air supply.”
He took his weight off of me. “Sorry.”
“It’s fine. I just don’t feel like turning blue today.”
“To bad, I think Smurf’s are pretty hot.”
I pushed his shoulder and giggled. “So if I dyed myself blue you’d love me more.”
Gerard nodded his head.
I rolled my eyes. “And hey if I do dye myself blue I can probably join The Blue Man Group.”
“You do realize it has the word ‘man’ in the band name.”
“I’ll die myself blue AND get a sex change.”
“I don’t think I want you to be blue anymore.”
I giggled at the sadness on his face when I started talking about a sex change.
The last day was the absolute worst, not because of what happened, but knowing that we were taking the red eye back to NJ that night.
“I don’t wanna go.” I whined to Gerard, packing my very overstuffed bags. “Can we stay another week?” I smirked back at him.
“You know we leave for Europe Sunday night.”
“I know, then you come back to the states right?”
“For a couple months, then back to Europe.”
I nodded, I was actually really excited about going to Europe because I’ve never been there before. I heard it’s a beautiful place. I looked at my ring Gerard had given me last night as I finished packing and smiled. He was so sweet getting this for me, it’s so cute, and it’s the kind of ring that could go with any outfit you wear. But if it wasn’t I would wear it all the time anyway, just because Gerard gave it to me.
“You ready?” He asked, throwing his duffle bag over his shoulder.
“I guess.” I told him and sighed, then looked around the room. “I’m gonna miss this place.”
“Me, too. I liked it.”
“Are you kidding? I loved this place, if we could just live here forever then I totally would.” I grabbed all my suitcases. “Let’s go.” Gerard told me and opened the hotel door.
I waved at the room. “Bye.”
He laughed at me. “You’re such a dork.”
“If I’m a dork then you’re a dorkface, dorkface.”
We walked down the steps cause the elevator made these jerking motions that scared us both.
I, nor he, talked the whole time at the airport. It was like this weird feeling had come over both of us, not toward each other, but just the fact we were flying again. It kinda does get boring after a while. Also, knowing we were gonna have to get on a flight just a couple days after we got back to New Jersey made me sad.
Gerard called someone before we boarded our flight. “Yeah man, we should be there around seven, but with airport service I would actually say nine.”
“Who is it?” I whispered to Gerard. Poking him.
“It’s Mikey,” he whispered back, trying to still listen to what his brother was saying.
“Mikey!” I squealed and took the phone from Gerard’s hand, then presumed to walk away with it. “Mikey, I missed you so much. It’s been almost two weeks.”
“I know, you’re so mean not calling for so long.”
“The phone doesn’t just work one way.”
“Yeah, but I’ve been busy.”
“With your almost wifey, it’s about time you guys started talking about the date.”
“We were thinking within the next couple months.”
“Awesome.” I smiled, just the thought of those two together makes me melt inside, they’re so cute. “She’s not gonna make me wear an ugly a** dress is she?” I asked him.
He laughed. “You’ll have to ask her. But, I promise, if she does I won’t marry her.” He joked.
“Aw, thanks Mikey.” I joked back. “You’re worried about my fashion before your actual wedding.”
“You know me, I gotsta be fashionable.”
I laughed at his attempt to sound “gangsta”.
Gerard ran up to me. “Can I have my phone back now please?”
“Fine.” I turned my mouth back to the speaker. “Bye Mikey. See ya in a few hours.”
Mikey basically said the same thing back, and I handed the phone back to Gerard.
We sat in our comfy seats, and I laid my head on Gerard’s shoulder.
“What are we gonna do to fill up the time before we leave for Europe?” I asked him, as the plane was taking off, turbulence kicking in bad.
He shrugged, making my head fall off his shoulder a little. “Maybe we could go back to Pizza Hut.”
I laughed, remembering what we had done. “Are you sure they would even let us back there?”
“That was a long time ago, so I guess they would.”
“I wanna go to bed now, so shut up.”
“You were asking the questions.” Gerard defended.
I just rolled my eyes, then closed them to sleep. I like sleeping through plane rides, it’s very calming to me. Because you literally are floating on air.
“Wake up.” I was being nudged.
“Go away.” I turned my back to him.
“Jocelyn.” He shook me. “The plane’s about to land.”
I turned back toward him, yawned, and stretched out my arms and legs. “Fine.”
The plane was let off and I just wanted to go back to sleep.
I wish they would’ve let me just sleep on the plane, and not let anyone on the plane. Not even Gerard and just let me be alone. I dragged my things across the airport floor with my eyes half closed. “Gerard,” I groaned. “Are we going back to your mom’s house?”
“Yeah, I should spend time with her before we leave. I actually should’ve spent it with her this week, but...”
“Hey! Don’t blame me. You didn’t have to come.”
“I never said anything, I’m glad we stayed together this week.”
“I know,” I sighed. “Now we’ll have to deal with a gazillion smell boys for months, well, I will again. You’re used to it.”
“Hun, I’m one of those smelly boys.”
I laughed, then it died down in realization of something. “S**t. I’ll have to suffer through Matt’s 24/7 porn again.”
Gerard laughed. “I like it.”
“Of course you would.” I rolled my eyes.
We got into a cab, and decided to make the cab driver uncomfortable.
“Baby,” I said to Gerard moving my hands all over him. “Did you get those extra large vibrating condoms?”
“Anything for you hun.”
“Oh, before I forget I talked to Alicia and she said that she would totally love to come and play...um...dress up with us.” I giggled, in a sexy way though, not in my normal innocent girl way.
“Perfect. Now I get to pleasure the two of you.” He kissed me, and we completely smacked on each other’s lips in front of the driver.
I took a quick glance to see that he was looking in the rearview mirror every chance he got. I decided to get extra freaky with this. I took Gerard’s hand and put it on one of my boobs.
The cab driver was sweating because of what Gerard and I were doing.
I think Gerard forgot there was someone with us and went to do the thing that all girls want guys to do, but I pushed him off my lap and we sat back normal.
I tried to keep my laughing in and actually succeeded in doing so.
Once we arrived at the Way house, Gerard and I got out of the car.
Gerard reach through the passenger seat to give the guy his money.
The guy, who was obviously still turned on, shook his head. “This one’s on me man.”
“Ok.”
The cab driver pulled away.
I started to explode into that laugh I was trying to hold in. “Should we tell them about our sex ticket or what we just did first?”
Gerard hugged me. “I think the ticket, because that’s just a tad bit funnier.”
“Ok.” I ran into the house and everyone sitting around the couches and chairs. “Guys you will never believe this....” Upon seeing their faces I stopped. “Jeez, who died?”
