[Justify][sub] Helena heard him answer the phone, putting the last of the plates away before seating herself up on the countertop.
"Hey, Gee," Mikey said, taking a small breath before he continued on. "Well...Sage and I are going to be parents!" he added happily. "She found out this morning."
Gerard's eyes widened and a grin spread into his face. " Oh god, really? That's amazing!! I'm so happy for you two!" He told him truthfully. He was going to be an uncle and Helena was going to be an aunt. This was all too good. " Did you tell mom and dad yet?" He asked.
[Justify][sub] Mikey sighed slightly. "No. But they're next on my list of calls. I'll tell everyone else at band practice tonight," he said, relieved that Gerard seemed happy for them.
" Okay. I'm going to tell Ena. I'll see you later. Bye." Gerard said and hung up. He slid his phone away and then turned to Helena. " Sage and Mikey are having a baby." He told her.
[Justify][sub]{{ Sorry if I poof. Painting my nails for tomorrow. }}
Mikey set the phone down, deciding to call his parents a little later. He walked back out into the living room, smiling. "Gee seemed happy," he said.
Helena nodded slowly. "Good for them, I guess," she said, forcing a small smile before she walked out of the kitchen and into the living room.
It's fine! I'm watching Supernural so yeah XD))
Sage looked up as he came back in. She had a slight smile on her face. She wondered how Helena was going to take it. She had been told of how she couldn't have a child. She felt bad for her friend. " That's good." She stated. She looked up at him.
Gerard didn't follow her, deciding to give her some space. He looked in the fridge and pantry. They didn't really have much. " Ena, I'm going to go shopping!! I'll be back soon." He called to her. He slid on a jacket and shoes.
[Justify][sub]{{ Cool. }}
Mikey sat back down on the couch, seeming thoughtful. "How do you think my parents would react?" he asked, his voice carrying a hint of curiosity. They would probably either be completely ecstatic, or they would worry that he and Sage were making such a big step so soon. Afterall, both him and Sage were only nineteen.
"Get me something you think I'll like!" Helena called back to him, heading up the stairs to take a quick shower.
{{ I'm trying to think here...What if Helena actually got pregnant down the road by surprise and when she goes to the doctor to find out how, she discovers that all she had been told as a child was a lie? }}
I am never cooking again. Never. I tried to make soup and I went to the bathroom to take a quick shower right. I plugged back in and forgot about the fucking soup. It looked like burnt caramel when I threw it away. And now my flat smells like rotten tomatoes.
Ooh yes!!))
" I dunno. Hopefully they will be happy." Sage replied. She knew they were young. Mikey was turning twenty later this year and she was turning twenty at the end of the year. She didn't know, hoping they would be estatic as they thought they would be.
Gerard came back later on, having gotten what they needed. He had gotten her a triple chocolate cupcake. He set it on the counter and began to put stuff away.
[Justify][sub]{{ Ew. Actually, I didn't even know you could burn or overcook soup. xD All I know how to cook is fast food ( not really doing any work there ), instant pasta, instant potatoes, and pizza. And I cook soup in a microwave. It's sorta handy. }}
Mikey nodded slowly. "I think we should go to their house this weekend and tell them in person," he said slowly. "Maybe it would be better." He thought that if perhaps they told them in person and not on the phone, they might be more accepting of the situation considering they couldn't exactly scold Sage. They loved her to death anyways. But Mikey was still their son - their youngest son, to be exact.
Helena came back down from her shower, wearing a pair of black and white lounge pants with a black tank top. Her wet hair was up in a bun and her face was all clean with no make-up left from the previous day. She saw the cake and grinned. "Cake!" she squeaked, sneaking up behind him.
I didn't think you could either. Only me though))
" That sounds like a good idea." Sage agreed to it. She had sat on the couch while he was talking to Gerard. She leaned back in it somewhat. The coushin was comfortable. She couldn't believe she had a little child in her, growing. She had a soft smile on her face.
Gerard was putting some apple juice in the fridge. He heard her coming and glanced behind him. " Yeah. I thought you would like it. " he told her. " It's triple chocolate." He added on.
[Justify][sub]{{ xD At least you didn't burn the flat down. }}
{{ BTW, did we do a birthday thing for Helena yet? I know we did one for Mikey because they had a party, we did one for Sage because Mikey proposed to her in Jamaica, and I know we just did one for Gee... }}
Helena grinned. "Ooo! Triple chocolate!" she said, seeming awed like a kid in a candy store. "Sounds nice," she added, walking over to the fridge and grabbing one of the numerous beers Gerard kept in the house. She wasn't legal age yet, but neither was he. And she didn't drink all the time - nor did she ever get drunk. She popped the top off the bottle before taking a small drink.
Mikey still couldn't really wrap his head around the fact that he was going to be a dad. It would be a big responsibility, and he already felt bad about knowing the band comes first. But hopefully things would work out.
That would've been horrible.
We didn't yet. We need to.))
" Yeah. You said get something you like, so I got you a cupcake." Gerard told her. He sat on the counter, watching her. He raised an eyebrow as he saw her take a beer out. He had never seen her drink, ever. " You sure you want to drink that?" He asked her. He was worried about her, knowing her dad was an alcoholic and that could be bad.
Sage shifted to where her bad was leaning against the arm rest and she was facing him. " Everything is going to be fine. I can see you're somewhat worried. While you're recording and touring and stuff, Ill be fine," she assured him, glancing at her stomach. " We'll be fine." She finished.
[Justify][sub]{{ Hmm...Should her birthday be in a few weeks? }}
Helena shrugged, feeling the slight burn of the alcohol as it slid down her throat. She held the bottle out to him as she spoke. "I'm only having one...Want a drink?" she offered, smiling a small smile. She knew she could never be like her dad. All she wanted was one. Only one.
Mikey chuckled softly. "Yes. The both of you," he teased, reaching over and softly patting her stomach. "I'll still worry though. What if something happens and I'm five states from home? What if I'm not able to come home when it's born?"
Sure!))
Gerard shook his head. " Nah, I'm good. Thanks though." He told her. He kept watching her just to make sure it was one and only one. He was trying not to drink still from that one night. He hadn't had the urge to drink in a bit so that was nice.
" I don't know. I will still be fine. And I don't know." Sage said. " the band is important. I know you love it. So if you're on tour and I give birth, don't worry." She added slowly. She gave him a smile.
[Justify][sub]{{ Maybe Gee returns the birthday favor she gave him and that's how she gets pregnant by surprise? }}
Helena took another swig of the drink before setting it down. She knew Gerard wouldn't let her go past one drink anyways, which was sort of nice. By the time she had finished the beer, her head felt a bit foggy - she wasn't used to the alchol intake. She went and plopped on the couch, groaning quietly.
Mikey smiled back softly. He would still make a point to be there when his child was born. Even if he had to hire someone to take over for him for a few days. Sure, the band was important, but his family couldn't just be pushed away. "Here...Move for a minute," he said quietly.
I like that c: ))
Gerard walked over and threw the bottle into the garbage. He soon followed her out. He stood behind the couch and looked down at her. He had a smile on his face, chuckling softly. " I'm guessing it wasn't that good?" He inquired. His eyes were bright, the green clearer today.
Sage shifted and stood up. She waited for him to do what he wanted to do. She felt ready to be a parent for someone her age. Usually people wouldn't want kid this young. She knew they would be good parents though.
[Justify][sub] Helena shrugged, closing her eyes. "It tasted good until I started to feel like crap," she mumbled, covering her face with a pillow.
Mikey laid down with his back fully against the backing couch cushions, patting the space in front of him. "Lay down," he murmured.
Gerard felt his smile fade and it turned into a frown. " Wait a minute." He said. He went back to the kitchen and got her aspirin and a bottle of water. He walked back and handed it to her. " Take this. It will help some." He informed her.
Sage laid down in front of him, her back facing his front side. She placed her head on her arm as a pillow. She seemed happy now. It had been a while since she was this happy.
[Justify][sub]{{ Sorry if I am poofy. Finally doing my nails. xD }}
Helena moved the pillow away from her face, opening her eyes and taking the aspirin with a small drink of water. "Thank you," she murmured, laying back down.
Mikey wrapped an arm around her, burying his face into her hair. "I love you," he whispered quietly, holding her close to him.
Okay!! Have fun with that. Might be poify as well))
Gerard shrugged. " Not a problem." He told her. He came over and sat down next to her on the couch. He watched her.
" I love you too." Sage whispered back. She closed her eyes.
Bad sorry))
