Unitl I Break

The next week was a crazy one. Seville barely had time to breathe let alone sleep or eat, trying to get the boys ready on top of finishing organizing the tour was insane. Brian wasn’t going on the trip, that’s why he wanted Seville, someone who knew the band and knew the business, plus it helped that she had just been over there for several months.

Paperwork, passports, certifications, crew, clubs, translators, contacts, trailers, cars, airplanes, places to stay, food funds, clothes! Everything was on her shoulders… the guys had to prep themselves mentally and physically; late night practices became a thing of commonality until the day before they left….but until then they were giving it their all.

Locked in a spare studio at reprise, they were busying discovering their band, and learning that the didn’t need the booze or the pills to be the personas that had developed…. They were their personas…. Or rather their personas were everything they had on the inside….especially true with Gerard. This heart-broken, tell tale boy of a childhood of ridicule who wore his heart on his sleeve until it was worn completely away by hardship, just like when your favorite t-shirt is worn by hard water; this boy that had sought happiness in the darkness isolated in a world of fiction, Gerard had viewed the world as he saw it and imagined himself a better role; This man was now seeing the world as it was, in a new light, and for the first time seeing that he already had a place in it, imagination was not necessary. And because of this, they were a new band, a new band that rocker way harder, way faster, and way more accurately then they ever had before.

That first practice was magic. It was if they had never played before. If they had thought they were on the verge of greatness before they had now idea where they were now…. Probably something similar to amazing but a hundred times better.

The night before they left, well actually the night they were leaving, was huge. Despite everything that had yet to be done they were all taking time out to go have dinner at the Iero’s, Mr. Iero was proud, so proud that his son was doing what he hadn’t. So at about seven Gerard pulled Seville away from the mound of paperwork she had set on the island counter, he hadn’t left her apartment yet and to be completely honest she didn’t want him too, but touring calls!

They pulled up to a quaint brick tudor home in nice area, where about twenty cars were piled into the yard. Everyone was there, more specifically everyone of Frank’s relatives were there as well as a few friends. Seville and Gerard walked up to the throbbing house, music and chatter could be heard blaring out of the house and the backyard. They were instantly greeted by friends, Gina had gotten the door she looked adorable, she had the cutest vintage jeans on and vintage seventies dress over top.

“HEEYY!” she yelled loudly a drink in handas she flung her arms around Gerard and Seville.
“Gina you look so hott how are ya babe!” Seville said rambuncously

“Well look at you too! And Gee when did you get all GQ?”

Gerard blushed a little as he lit up a cigarette; he was hardly GQ but his clothes were no longer falling apart, in thanks to Seville.

“Well come in guys! You know were everything’s at I gotta go run and get something for Frank real quick but il find ya!” Gina said taking off up the stairs. As the walked through the house Gerard stopped and introduced Seville to all of Frank’s family. His cousins, uncles, his grandpa, his neighbors, EVERYONE and that was overwhelming. They moseyed into the a living room that seemed to be packed with their crew Jack and his brother Bobby were throwing em back with Geoff Rickly who was in town and figured he stop in. Geoff, of everyone, was that happiest to hear Gerard was clean. Then there was Mikey and no sign of Carmella anywhere, though Willow was.

“Willow right?”

“Definitely, and let me guess that you’re the infamous Seville?” willow said cheekily.

“Hey you went to NYU right?”

“Went?! I still go!”

“And that sucks. Yeha I did that, glad to be free.”

“Almost free!! It’s taken forever to get this damn masters done!’

Seville laughed; she knew all too well that feeling. At this point Gerard took the opportunity to ask Mikey about Mella.

“I don’t know where she at.”

“What do you mean you don’t know I think if you’re gonna bring another girl to a party you sure as hell better know where your girlfriend is Mikes. What the hell are you thinking dude you have a girlfriend!” Gerard yelled in hush tones to Mikey at a level inaudible by the girl’s conversation which had now found its way to work…the weirdoes.

“Dude chill out, I asked her to come with me and she was all like, ‘I have to do stuff but ill try and stop by later’ yeah whatever…” Mikey said impersonating Carmella to a T.

Gerard couldn’t help but laugh, he was pretty good at it. “But dude you still brought willow…”
“But I like her Gee.” Mike said blushing guiltily.

In the meantime Seville had made her way over the Ray and Claire, both of whom were still showing each other off.

Then it happened….

“Look at that ,damn its been awhile since ive seen that backside….” A voice called from behind Seville.

Never tiring of the comments, Seville turned an instant wave of shock spreading over her face. In yet another instant Bob Bryar was on the ground, playfully pushing Seville off of him, “HELP HELP she’s licking me!!” and indeed she was. She sat up still straddling him as Frnak ran to the rescue…NOT he had to get in on the licking action too. It was getting to be a group activity, though Bob wasn’t so friendly when frank started licking him; he stuck his hand in franks face and pushed him single handedly away.

“You’re mean.” Gina said rushing over to the injured ego of Frank. She ran her hands over his hair, gently tugging on it as she pressed her lips against his. Frank moved his hands to her hips which sat comfortably across his lap as things heated up…

everyone in the room rolled their eyes; Gina pulled away and playfully bit her lip.

“Now… babe I have to … talk to you NOW.” Frank said urgently to Gina as he stood her up, took her by the hand, and whisked her upstairs seductively.

“You know Seville if you’re gonna sit on me like this all night which could probably follow Franks suit and move to a more comfortable locale.”

“Can Gee come?” she asked naughtily

“I don’t think he’ll like watching.”

‘Guess it’s just us then!” she said playfully jumping up.

Gerard kinda just stood there with a look on his face that said “I don’t know if they’re serious or not.”

Seville seeing this walked over to him and kissed him sweetly…. He still looked dumbfounded.

Confused Seville tried again. No luck.

Once more. Nope nothing.

She shrugged and grabbed his hand turning to talk with Bob again.

“So Bo-“

“Wait! Gerard said excited cutting Seville off, “Do it again!” he said turning to her with a singly raised eyebrow.

She whispered seductively into his ear, the warmth of her breath on his neck sent chills down his spine, “save some of that energy for later sugar.”
