Into Your Icy Blues (Gerard Way/My Chemical Romance)

Chapter 31. Stress & Life

I woke to the house phone ringing, and realized I had fallen asleep on the couch again. Like I've been doing most nights. Rubbing the sleep from my eyes I quickly got up to answer it.

"Hello." I heard my voice crack.

"Hey sleepy head." I heard Mikey's soft voice say on the other end.

"Hey Mike's." My voice sounded so horse.

"I wanted to call and tell you we will be coming home in two weeks. We will only be staying 4 days though." I felt joy radiate through my body.

"Oh Mikey that's some of the best news you could have ever told me. I've missed you guys so much. Is Christa coming home before that or will she be coming home then?"

"Hold on I'll ask.... Hey Chris Liz wants to know when you are deciding to go home."

"I was thinking of staying till you guys go home. Why is she okay? Does she need me to come home?"

"No no Mikey tell her Im fine. Don't worry." I rushed out not wanting anyone to worry. He quickly told her what I said.

"So any other good news?"

"Well we all got to shower today." I started busting out laughing.

"Oh how I don't envy your time on the road. I like my shower daily. I know you called me but could you please hand the phone to Gee. I haven't talked to him in a weeks now. I know you guys said he's been writing  and in a zone. I just at least want to say hi." I heard what sounded like Mikey sighing.

"Lizzy hes..." I heard Mikey pause.

"Never mind Mikes its fine. Please don't tell me another line or a lie. I have to go bye." I hung up before giving him a chance to continue. The phone began to ring and I quickly answer intending to tell mikey off.

"Mikey I don't want to hear it. I'm fucking sick of th...." I was cut off quickly.

"Hey Lizzy, Im so sorry I see I've called at a bad time."

"Oh god Mary Im sorry. No its fine, I thought you were my uncles friend calling back after I hung up. What going on do you need me to come in?"

"I hate to call, and give you this new but the store will be closed the next month." I felt my mouth drop open.

"Why, what's going on?"

"The inspector came by and apparently the owner of the building didn't actually repair the roof. There has been mold growing in the ceiling. We will know by the end of the week if the store is being moved or if it will be cleaned out."

"Oh wow Mary. Well keep me posted. I'll come back no matter how long it takes."

"Thank you Lizzy, that's wonderful to know. Well I better go and call everyone else."

"Okay, good luck." I said as I hung up the phone.

I was in such a bad mood I found myself cleaning the house. The kitchen and living room were spotless in no time but I was still fuming.

Things had seemed to be going so well. Gerard was calling me more, talking to me for hrs if he could. To now it seems like he is purposely ignoring me. And the excuses everyone keeps giving me are just making things worse.

If things are over Id rather be told. Why cant one of them just grow a pair and tell me the truth. Or Gerard just tell me what the hells going on and not hide behind the guys.

The more and more upset I got the more I found myself cleaning.

I was lying on the couch exhausted when the phone started ringing. I slowly got up to answer it.

"Hello?"

"Hey Liz. What are you up to?"

"Hi Josh, about to be a couch potato for the rest of the day. What are you doing?"

"How about I pick up some pizzas, and we veg out together. Im finally free and I miss my friend."

"I miss you too, and I really need someone to talk to."

"Is everything okay? You don't sound like you." I heard concern in his voice.

"Ill be fine. Just get you ass over here." I said playfully.

"Okay miss bossy pants. Ill be there in an hour."

"Bye butthead."

"Bye." He said while laughing.

I had just enough time to clean up all the cleaning supplies and take a shower before Josh came walking in. With 2 large pizzas in one hand and a bag full of stuff.

"Okay so I picked up some movies."

"Yay, what did you get?" I asked as I grabbed the bag and started rummaging through it. He started to laugh.

"Why ask when you were going to look anyway." I busted out laughing.

"Because Im weird like that." I as I grabbed a movie and popped it in.

We settled ourselves down on the couch and dug into the pizza.
