My Real Romance

I've been sitting in the bathroom tub, with the door locked, for half an hour now.

Oh god. I can't go out there! He'll know it's me for sure!

I hear someone walking up the stairs, talking to themselves.

"She's probably just nervous. Geez, I hope she's alright"

Gerard. I smile.

Of course I'm nervous. We're reunited and you don't know it.

He knocks soflty

"Ivy? Are you ok?"

"Uh yeah. Just um-"

"Nervous?" I stare at the door, wondering what he's doing.

"Yeah, nervous"

I slowly get out of the tub, taking off my wings and shoes. I open the door and I see him siting on the ground. He quickly looks up at me and stands up, clearing his throat, embarassed. I start to blush.

"Um, so I-"

"It's alright Gerard" He nods.

"Do you know if Bert has any pants I could wear?"

"Um yeah. F-Follow me" I follow him into Berts room.

And he says I'm twitchy.

He rumages for a few minutes and pulls out a pair of black sweat pants. He hands them to me and quickly walks out. I bite my bottom lip.

"Wow, like the old days."

I take off my tutu and torn leggings, putting on the sweats.
