I Need You Like Water In My Lungs

"What day is it?" Gerard sighed playing with my hair

"Friday."

"So, we should be leaving soon I suppose." I looked over at the clock and it was 6:00 a.m., check out was at noon.

"When do you leave?" I said as he continued to play with my hair

"2 days." he said as I looked up at him "I'll call you everyday, and when I don't call by a certain time. You have to call me." he grinned eagerly

"Ok." I said smiling
"And on days when I'm near you, or know you can fucking get off and come see me you will." he said tickling me making me giggle even more.

"Got it?" he said pinning me down still tickling

"Yes, I got it!" a said gasping for air inbetween laughs

"Good." he said getting off me and laying next to me, I got up and started making my way to the bathroom.

"Where are you going?"

"To take a shower." I smiled, and he grinned getting out of bed and following me.

'You're not helping Justine." Mandy sighed impatiently

"Hmm?" I said snapping myself out of my drifting thoughts.

"My boyfriend is on that tour bus too."

"What's your reason for this conversation topic?" I said pretending like I was looking at the tops, but I wasn't.

"You being sad, and Debbie Downer doesn't help me not be that way." she sighed

"What do you mean, I'm shopping with you aren't I." I hated shopping, I liked knowing there was a sale, and what was in it. Getting that and leaving.

"I just asked you if this green top looked nice on me." she said pointing to a baby poop green top

"Ok." she had caught me

"I hate green, and this looks like baby shit." she said trying not laugh

"I'm sorry, and yes it does look like baby shit." at that moment a few elderly women walked by us shaking their heads.

"We used to do it before Justine." she said sitting down on a bench in the dressing room.

"What?"

"Wait for them to come back from tour."

"Yes, but back then it wasn't the same. I didn't know the things I know now. And for all I knew Gerard slept with every woman that was willing."

"Did you really believe that?" she asked looking suprised

"Believe what?"

"That he slept with every woman that came along and was willing?" I nodded

"Justine."

"Mandy, you havn't had sex with him. No man can do those things just by instinct..." I smirked

"Well I know for sure after he met you he didn't let girls really mess with him past a kiss." I looked at her disbelieving. Not wanting to believe more than anything.

"Don't believe me? Ask him or Frank yourself one day,"

"Hmph." I sighed

"Wanna get out of here, I know you hate shopping." she said sympathetically

"I want some ham." I stated

"You hate ham." she said as I got up

"And kiwi."

"Ok, weirdo." she chuckled. But gave me a supicious look.
