Save me ~ Mikey Way x Reader

Mention of self harm in this chapter.

Were a little ahead of schedule so we took a group vote and decided to spend a day walking around L.A. since that's where we're at. There isn't a show today but we still parked at the venue.

"So where are we heading to first?" I asked Mikey while we walked down the street, swinging our linked hands. Ray, Gee, and Frank are walking a few steps ahead of us, involved in their own conversations.

"Where do you want to go to first?" Mikey smiled. I took a look around and noticed a little coffee shop called 'Beans'. A pointed to the small shop.

"That coffee shop looks promising." I checked my watch to see that it was about 10 am. Mikey nodded.

"Guys, want coffee?" Mikey called up to the boys in front of us. They stopped dead in their tracks and in sync, swiftly turned to look at us with serious stares.

"Is that even a question?" Gerard answered in disgust. I laughed and rolled my eyes. I pointed to the coffee shop across the street. They exchanged approving nods and ran to the cross walk. The coffee hungry boys waited impatiently for the light to tell them they could cross. Mikey and I got there just in time for it to change. Ray took the lead with Gee not too far behind. Frank was having trouble keeping up with his short legs. 

Mikey shook his head at their childish behaviors as we walked across the street to the shop. They three man-children waited outside of the shop for Mikey and I with impatience. 

"Took you guys long enough." Ray rolled his eyes. Gerard chuckled. 

Gerard has seemed to be doing better recently. Frank and I have really been keeping an eye out for him. It's almost like Gerard just needed to let everything out. It must have really been weighing him down because he seems more energetic and free. I'm really glad to see him doing better. He hasn't been doing any drugs and has been cutting back on his alcohol consumption a lot. Instead he's been drinking a shit ton of coffee but that'd better than beer.

Frank took our orders and went up to the counter. The place had a cool hipster theme to it. The aromatic sent of fresh coffee beans gave the place a very homey feeling to it. There were a few booths and multiple tables scattered around the cafe. The walls were painted a very calming acorn color and had plants painted on top of it in a darker brown. 

After a few minutes, Frank came back with five drinks in his hands. He seemed to be struggling a bit so I took three of them off of him. He looked relived and sighed a 'thank you'. I giggled and read the marking on each cup while passing them out. Sitting back down next to Mikey, I took a sip of my latte. 

"Holy shit." I whispered into my cup. I didn't think it was possible for coffee to taste this amazing and flavorful.

"Someone likes her coffee." Frank laughed from next to me. He hadn't tried his yet.

"Drink it and you'll agree." I said while noticing he got the same thing as me. Frank rolled his eyes as he brought the cup up to his lips. His eyes soon went wide once he took a sip. He lowered his cup slowly and looked at me in amazement. 

"Holy shit." Frank muttered.

"I know right!" I exclaimed in return.

"This is really good." Ray added while taking another sip.

"This was really good." Gerard chimed in (with a haven't you people ever heard of..). I looked at him confused since he used past tense, only to see what he meant.

His cup was empty. How is that possi- 

Never mind. I forgot. It's Gerard.

"Did you at least enjoy it?" I laughed.
