Some Other Way to Continue, (Gerard Way) to Hide My Face 22

and once again, my awesome lovely creative awesome kickass banners by killing4fun
"uhhhh..." i said looking at the ground. i felt frankie push me from behind in Gerard's direction and made a mental note to thank him later.
"cass?" Gerard said coming closer to me.
"yeah, yeah." i said quickly.
frankie sat on the couch and watched us.
"alone?" Gerard said in Frankie's direction.
i grabbed my keys from my pocket and waved gerard to follow me. the only place we would truely be alone was in the car. there were just way too many people in this house.
he followed me into my car and sat in the passinger seat. i sat in the drivers seat staring at the steering wheel waiting for him to start.
after nothing was said for a few seconds i shifted in my seat. i glanced over at him quick to see him staring at his hands which rested in his lap.
he opened his mouth slightly as if wanting to say something, but then closed it probably deciding against it.
i took a deep breath and looked at him. "so?"
he looked surprised and then nodded, "okay, here it goes."
he waited a few seconds and then continued, "that kiss... it is the reason i stayed up all last night. in it, i saw my life with you. i saw us together in the park swinging our kids on the same swings we used to play on. i want all of you for myself. and it sounds selfish, but i cant help it. ive been waiting to tell you this since we were kids. your my best friend. you are the most beautiful thing i have ever laid my eyes on. im yours for the taking, if you want it."
i stared at him staring back at me. never in my 18 years has anyone ever said something remotely close to as meaningful that was. i wanted to jump into his arms and tell him i was his.
"Gerard, that was the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me. i mean it."
gerard smiled to himself, "i practiced all night."
i laughed, "i want to tell you something, but i dont want you to think im weird."
"you know you can tell me anything."
i took a deep breath and looked him straight in the eye, "ive been in love with you since i was four years old. i know it sounds silly, but it was love at first sight, no matter how cliche that sounds."
he was smiling from ear to ear. he quickly leaned over and wiped my face with his hand. i hadnt even noticed i started crying.
this was just such a powerful moment. ive always told myself that one day i would tell gerard howi really felt, and i just did.
he leaned in closer to me and held my cheek with his hand. "i love you too."
i pushed foward and crashed my lips into his. this was a wonderful day indeed.
he pulled away quickly, and dug into his pocket. he took a deep breath once again and pulled out a box.
"cassie, will you marry me?"
i threw myself into his arms and cried happy tears. "yes." i must have repeated at least ten times.
i released him and he placed the ring on my finger and smiled up at me. "i love you." he said again. it was almost like he was making up for lost time.
"i love you too." i felt fresh tears trailing down my cheek.
we moved to the back seat where we stayed in eachothers arms for a while, every once and a while stealing kisses. it was unbelieveble. yesterday morning i was still wishing to even have gerard kiss me on the forehead. and now, we were engaged.
it wasnt until the car got too cold to stay in that we went inside. instead of telling everyone, Gerard and i snuck upstairs to my room without anyone knowing. just as we got settled in eachothers arms, my cell phone vibrated in my pocket. i groaned and pulled it out, looking at the caller ID.

VERY IMPORTANT!!!
also, in case you all didnt know, bob has recently left the band. im very upset and dont know where i stand. he is a great drummer and will be missed. there is no say on who they will replace him with, however i have a feeling it will be james dewees, the pianist for TBP tour and also singer/songwriter of Reggie and the Full Effect. (good band btw)
so i thought id get your opinions. do you want bob in the story still? i feel kinda weird leaving him in. but i still love bob so i wouldnt have a problem keeping him. what do you all think?
