17. Ray Toro

Safe with you

Romantic fluffy

God the world is ending.
It's everyone for themselves now.
I have my house protected with spikes and traps.

One morning I heard my trap alarm go off.
Someone got caught.
I took my axe and ran outside.
"Who are you and what do you want?!" I yelled.
"I- I'm sorry! I don't want to hurt anyone!" The person yelled. "Please! I was attacked I need help!"
They were covering their head with their hands.
I looked at them up and down and saw a huge gaping wound on his left leg.
"What is your name?"
"Ray, Ray Toro! Just please help me!"

I ran over and untangled the rope from his ankles.
I took him inside and tied him to a chair.
"Why did you come here?" I asked, cleaning his wound.
"I... I was told that one of the smartest survivors live here" Ray said.
"By who?"
"I don't know, I was in a hurry"
"I'm flattered to be known as one of the smartest survivors in the area but I'm not really a fan of people"
"What's your name?"
"Y/N Y/L/N"
"Thank you" he smiled.

He didn't look like someone with bad intentions.
He looked sad and hurt.
"You seem like a sweet fella but I have to keep you tied up for my own safety" I said.
He looked up at me. "At least I'll be safe"
I smiled slightly. "And I'll have company"
"You're all alone here?"
"I haven't talked to another person in months"
"That's- that's really sad, I wish I could hug you"
"No, I've been fine without anyone else around"

As weeks went by I warmed up to Ray.
I sat with him for hours sometimes, just talking about the world.

"Hey Ray, I think today's the day" I sighed, walking over to him.
"You'll let me go?" He asked.
"Yeah, you can go wherever you want"
I cut off the ropes.
He pulled me into a hug. "Thank you"
"Just go, runaway from here and find a place of your own"
"Y/N I don't want to leave you"
"You have to!"
"Why?"
"I-" I sighed. "Everyone always does, they die or they leave"
"I want to stay" Ray said. "I'm not leaving you"
I felt a tear escape my eye.

I've heard those exact words before.
My best friend got themselves killed right after that.
"Hey, it's okay" he whispered.
"No!" I pushed him away. "Stop! Those words get you killed!"
"Y/N, calm"
"GO! RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN!!"

Ray put a hand over my eyes and kissed me.
Then he removed his hand. "I'm sorry, that's the only way I could shut you up"
"Ray" I whispered. "Stay safe"
"I will, I promise"
I kissed his lips, quick enough for him to not react.
Then I ran to my room and slammed the door shut.

I cannot fall in love with the first person who's been nice to me in months.
No way.
"Y/N, is something wrong?" Ray asked from the other side of the door. "Please let me in"
"I- I'm fine"
"We both know that's a lie"
I opened the door and he pulled me into him.
"I'm right here, talk to me"
"If you leave you'll die"
"Why is that?"
"There's people out there that want to destroy everything I love and they already got my best friend"
"Everything you love?" He asked.
"Yes"
"Aw I love you too"
I looked up at him and he smiled.
Fuck.

I leaned in and kissed him.
"I was never supposed to fall in love" I sighed.
"I was never supposed to care about anyone"
"But that doesn't mean you can't" Ray said. "I know what it feels like to lose loved ones, I lost my best friends too"

Ray showed me a photo album of him and his friends, Gerard, Mikey and Frank.
They were so close.
"And once Frankie cut my head open with his guitar" He said. "He uh, he caused a lot of injuries but we loved him anyways. Gerard got kicked in the balls during a show. Mikey was the only one who never got hurt because of him"
His voice was shaky. "I don't know where they are. I miss them"
"Wait, they're not dead?" I asked.
"I'm not sure, they couldn't contact me when all this started"

Then the trap alarm went off.
"Someone's here" I grabbed my axe and got up.
Ray took his baseball bat and followed me.
I opened the door and raised the axe.
"Who are you and what do you want?!" I yelled.
"Y/N, wait" Ray said.
"RAY!!" Someone ran up to hug him.
"Frankie" he sighed.
"They said you'd be dead by the time we found you" another person said.
"Y/N, these are my friends, guys, this is Y/N"

I put the axe down.
"A LITTLE HELP HERE?!" The last guy yelled.
"Could you free Mikey?" Ray asked.
"Of course" I sighed.
I walked up to him and freed him from the trap.
"Thanks" he said.

We all went inside and the couch was more like a hug pile as all of the guys were lying on top of Ray.
He was just smiling
"So, Y/N, 'one of the smartest survivors' yeah?" Frank asked.
"Yeah"

Gerard was full on sobbing with his head on Ray's lap and Mikey was sleeping, resting his head on Ray's shoulder.
"Gee it's alright" he said, petting Gerard's head.
"I missed you man, I thought you died" Gerard sobbed.
"Well I didn't, c'mon give me a hug"
Gerard got up and hugged him.
Ray held him in a brotherly way, it was different from how he held me.
He really does love me.

"It's getting late boys, time to sleep" Ray said.
"Okay" all of the others said in unison.
Gerard and Mikey took over the couch and he got up.
"Goodnight boys"
"Goodnight Ray"
He took my hand and kissed my cheek. "Let's go"
Frank ran up behind Ray and hugged him.
"I missed you" he said.
"Missed you too Frank" Ray sighed. "Now go to sleep"
"Goodnight" I said, patting Frank's shoulder.

I went into bed with Ray, cuddling into his side and relaxing for the first time in months.
"I love you" he whispered.
"I love you too"
