After dad left I cleaned up the kitchen and then checked my phone.
1 message from Gee
I typed in the password so I could read the message.
Gee: hey Quinn sorry I'm running late be there in 15
Quinn: not forgiven
Quinn: jk see ya in 15
That meant I only had 15 minutes to get ready and I was still in my PJs. I ran through the house and up to my room straight into my closet. I still have no clue what Gee has planned so I just grab one of the first things I find. I throw on my All Time Low t-shirt, some black skinny jeans, and then some Converse. Once I finish I headed back downstairs after I brush my teeth and throw my hair up into a messy bun. I still have some time to spare so I run down to the studio that my dad has in the basement and grab my guitar that was left there so few nights ago. As I sit down on the bench I start to strum some chords. I didn't realize what song I was playing until the words filled my voice.
Mayday situation overload
I'm restless, obsessed with your future
And all my worries they don't bother you
Collected, you render me useless
But I carry on
Right now, I think that you think that I'm
Half drunk, searching for something of
Substance, casually dropping a line, designed
To keep you next to me
I can't awkwardly craft in advance
I know, that you wouldn't fall for that
You say "Shut up and take my hand"
And we carry on
I don't wanna say goodnight
The city comes alive, when we're together
Why can't Thursday last forever
I don't wanna say goodnight
I've never been so sure
Just do it for the memories
Do it for Baltimore
And do it for me
Hot damn, look at me now
I'm all, caught up riding the high of my
Good luck, casually dropping a line, designed,
To keep you next to me
I bet you never thought you would fall again
So much for keeping this, just friends
Shut up and kiss me now
And we carry on
I don't wanna say goodnight
The city comes alive, when we're together
Why can't Thursday last forever
I don't wanna say goodnight
I've never been so sure
Just do it for the memories
Do it for Baltimore
And do it for me
(Do it for me)

Once I reach the end of the song the doorbell rings in there. Perfect timing. Assuming it's Mayday situation overload
I'm restless, obsessed with your future

right as I end the song the doorbell sound rings. Assuming it's Gee I run upstairs and open the door.
"Hey Gerard wha-" mid sentence I was pulled into a bone crushing hug. A long hug. When he pulled away I could tell he had something on his mind.
"I'm sorry that you ever had to go through that crap and your dads and asshole and if you ever want to talk about it know I'm always here for you kid." He said like he has been practicing that speech.
" don't even be sorry. He was a jerk, but now I live in a stable home with a stable family and friends like you. It's all in the past. Now what are we doing today?"
"I want to show you something at my house. Then we can go out to eat. But really Quinn if you ever need anything ever you can always talk to me."
"I know"
"Alright. Now too the car!"I follow Him as we run out and jump in his car. I turn up the radio and we both start to sing to the songs that play as we head over to his house.
Another song starts to play and Gerard just turned to look at me and laughs.
The future is bulletproof
The aftermath is secondary
"What's so funny?" I asked
"It's nothing, I just haven't really listened to MCR since the split so it's kinda weird"
"Should I change it?"
"Nah let's jam out"
Drugs, gimme drugs, gimme drugs
I don't need it, but I'll sell what you got
Take the cash and I'll keep it
Eight legs to the wall
Hit the gas, kill them all
And we crawl, and we crawl, and we crawl
You be my detonator
Love, gimme love, gimme love
I don't need it, but I'll take what I want from your heart
And I'll keep it in a bag, in a box
Put an X on the floor
Gimme more, gimme more, gimme more
Shut up and sing it with me
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
From mall security
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
To every enemy
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
We're on your property
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
Standing in V formation
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
Let's blow an artery
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
Eat plastic surgery
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
Keep your apology
Give us more detonation
More! Gimme more! Gimme more!
Oh, let me tell you 'bout the sad man
Shut up and let me see your jazz hands
Remember when you were a madman
Thought you was Batman
And hit the party with a gas can
Kiss me you animal
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
You run the company
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
Fuck like a Kennedy
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
I think we'd rather be
Burning your information
Let's blow an artery
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
Eat plastic surgery
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
Keep your apology
Give us more detonation
And right here
Right now
All the way in Battery City
The little children
Raise their open filthy palms
Like tiny daggers up to heaven
And all the juvee halls
And the Ritalin rats
Ask angels made from neon
And fucking garbage
Scream out, "What will save us?"
And the sky opened up
Everybody wants to change the world
Everybody wants to change the world
But no one, no one wants to die
Wanna try, wanna try, wanna try
Wanna try, wanna try, now
I'll be your detonator
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
Make no apology
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
It's death or victory
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
On my authority
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
Crash and burn
Young and loaded
Drop like a bullet shell
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
Dress like a sleeper cell
Naa Naa Nana Nana Naa Naa Naa
I'd rather go to hell
Than be in purgatory
Cut my hair
Gag and bore me
Pull this pin
Let this world explode
As the song ends we both break into a fit of laughter. Then Gerard pulls in to a driveway of a nice home. It was tan with a dark roof. Not as big as the house I live in now but still gigantic.
"Welcome to mi casa!" He says with a smile. "Follow me I'll show ya around." We both jumped out of the car and he leads me in. He gives me a tour of all the rooms in his house and shows me where everything is. We go from room to room. His house is a lot bigger on the inside than it looks. We start upstairs and make our way downstairs to the basement. "This is what I like to call HQ"
Gerard swings the door open and leads me down the steps. At the bottom of the stairs there's two rooms. We go into one and my eyes light up. It's a studio set up with tons of instruments in it. The walls are all covered in band posters and his old band stuff. My jaw drops
"This is so cool!"
"Yeah it took me forever to get all this crap here but it's one of the things me and Linds dreamed off in a new home. If you ever want to use it just give me a call and come on over."
"Really?"
"Heck yea! I'll even show you how everything works sometime. But I wanted to show u something in the final room we haven't been in yet."
I follow him back out to the stairs as he stops infront of the other door. "close your eyes"
I did I was told and I heard the door creek open. He then tells me to open my eyes as soon as my eyes open I look around to see a huge room with Art and posters everywhere. The walls were covered in various art works by Gee himself. One of the walls was just painted straight on. I went over to the table on the left side of the room that was covered in hundreds of sketches. Gerard was so talented. He amazes me every time I saw his work.
"You like it?" He asks
" how can I not? everything is amazing. How do you get this talented?" He just chuckled as a response and I walked over to the desk on the other side of the room with a huge stack of papers on it. "what's this?" I read the top paper
Umbrella academy By: Gerard Way
"What is this?"
"That's actually what I wanted to show you. Remember when I told you I was working on a comic?"
"Yup, it was the first night we met."
"Yeah. Well I finally think I finished it. I want you to be the first to read it and tell me what you think. Not now of course but it's yours to take and read and tell me everything ."
" I can't wait to get started it's probably great I just know it."
" well that's not the last thing for today. I want you to meet someone and they just texted me saying they're at Starbucks. You up for that?"
"Totally who am I meeting?"
"My brother Mikey"
