Mikey's pov

"... Mikey, I don't see your girlfriend anywhere." Frank said.

"She said she'd be here," He sent a strange look, "What?"

"You didn't yell at me when I called her your girlfriend."

"That's cause she is my girlfriend," I smiled, "C'mon, let's walk around. She's gotta be around here somewhere." In that moment I heard the sound of laughter coming from behind us. Quickly, I turned around. Her and Awsten were joking around as they walked to us.

"Mikey! Hey..." She spoke through her giggles.

"Hey, why're you laughing so much?"

"Uhm, it's kinda hard to explain." She said.

"Aight," I took her hand and we all began walking.

"Dude, we should get our faces painted!" Awsten excitedly said.

"Fuck yeah!" She giggled, but looked to me, "You wanna?"

"Of course, Frank?"

"Nah, I'm gonna go find the other boys."

"Aight, see ya." Frank waved and was off. Y/n had pulled away from me to sit next to Awsten.

"What are you gonna get?" She asked him as I sat next to her.

"I dunno, maybe a little bee or something."

"Aww, cute..."

"Mikey! Hi!" A girl came over, excitedly greeting me.

"Hey, Bella, sup?"

"Nothin' much, just doing the face paint tent."

"Cool, oh, this is my girlfriend, Y/n and her friend Awsten."

"Oh, you're the people from out of town, aren't you? Of course Mikey's already got his charm working on you." Y/n sent a strange look to me. I sent a nervous smile.

"I guess so..." She said, still eyeing me.

"So, Bella, could we get our faces painted?"

"Yeah! Girls, c'mon!" Two other girls came out.

"Mikey! Hi!" They both greeted. I smiled at them as they began painting on the others faces. Bella began on mine. Y/n kept eyeing me.

"What?"

"Nothing, you just, seem to know a lot of girls around here."

"Of course he does, he knows all the girls."

"Mikey, are you a slut?" She asked, jokingly.

"Just a little..."

"You're keeping secrets from her and you're a slut. I say, that's a really bad combination." Awsten said.

"Please, I'm not actually a slut. I've just, dated a lot of girls, I guess."

"Slut! My boyfriend's a slut!"

"Isn't that bad for you too?"

"Not unless I say it is."

"Who made you in charge?"

"I did." I lightly pushed her, she did it back.

"Hold still!" A girl cried, but Y/n wouldn't quit giggling.

"What?"

"My boyfriend's a slut..." She giggled.

"Aren't we all just a little slutty deep down inside?" Awsten pondered.

"Wise words..." Y/n nodded at her friend.

"Stay still!" Finally, the girls finished, and we began walking again.

"Aww, my slutty boyfriend has pretty flowers on his face," I smiled at her as she reached up to hold my cheeks, "You look so adorable!" She had little flowers on her face too.

"You do too..." I spoke, kissing each of her palms. She blushed and smiled. Every damn time... so cute...

"Slut boy! Y/n! What are we doing next?" Awsten asked. We both shrugged.

"Wanna just walk around?" I asked. She nodded, taking my hand, "You're not gonna start calling me slut boy now, are you?"

"Maybe just a little bit."

"Oh fuck, now I gotta come up with a stupid nickname for you!"

"Call her Rollie Pollie! She hates it!"

"Awsten, shut the fuck up!"

"Now I'm curious, what's the story?"

"Okay, so we were at this party. And-"

"Shut up!"

"No, and there was a truth or dare game going on. Y/n's crush at the time was playing so she dragged me in and we both played along. So, Y/n's crush, Scott, he asked her, and she thought he was gonna dare her to kiss him or something cute like that, no-"

"Please don't finish the story..."

"I'm not even to the best part! Anyways, he dares her to eat a Rollie Pollie! And well, with Scott being Y/n's crush and all, she did it! She literally ate a Rollie Pollie from out on the sidewalk. It was so gross!"

"Agh, Awsten I'm gonna kill you!" She began chasing him around where we stood. I caught her before she could get to him. They're like little kids... it's adorable...

"Mikey, lemme go! I wanna kick his ass!" She cried.

"Yeah, I don't think so. As funny as that story was, I think I'll just stick to the sweet ones."

"Really? Thanks..." She smiled.

"Anything for you, dea-"

"Rollie Pollie!" Awsten cried.

"Can I please hit him!?" I stepped out of her way, she chased him around, and eventually tackled him.

"Agh!"

"We both know you woulda done the same damn thing if it were Stacy with you!" She cried.

"Okay, okay, I won't call you Rollie Pollie anymore!" He put his hands up in defeat.

"Thank you," She got off of him and took my hand, "So what are we doing now?" She just tackled her best friend... over a stupid nickname... cool...

"Anything you want..." I said.

"I'm outta here, gonna go find a pretty girl somewhere. See ya later, Rollie Pollie!" Awsten ran off, she angrily sighed.

"Mikey I swear one of these days, I'm gonna kill him."

"But he's your best friend."

"Yeah, I know! That's what makes it so difficult!" I chuckled, she giggled.

"Okay, but seriously, you're not actually gonna call me slut boy, are you?"

"Only if you don't call me Rollie Pollie."

"Honestly, I think that name is adorable. But, if you don't want me to use it, I won't."

"Thanks, babe." I kissed her cheek.

We walked around for awhile, talking and whatnot. Every now and then we'd stop at a tent and do whatever thing it was they were doing. By nightfall our faces were painted twice, there were flowers in each other's hair, and pretty paintings all up our arms. Just as we passed another tent, I spotted a few little carnival games set up. I'm gonna win her something...

"Aww, look at the gigantic bear!" Her eyes were now glued to the big guy hung up on the side of the booth.

"You want him?"

"I mean, yeah, but these carnival games are always just scams. No one can actually beat them."

"No one? I accept your challenge."

"Fine, go right ahead." She stepped aside.

"Step right up! Only a dollar a try!" The man explained. The game was to throw a few rings onto some glass bottles. Easy.

"I'm gonna win you that teddy bear, love." I said, sliding the man a dollar, he handed me five rings.

"Bet!"

"How many is it to get the teddy bear?" I asked.

"All five."

"Oh, I can do that."

"Then do it," She said, watching. I got the first three onto the bottles, but the last two didn't make it, "See, it's all a scam!"

"Gimme one more try."

"Fine..." She said, I slid the man another dollar.

"C'mon, man," I began to whisper, "I know you got magic powers. Just help me out with this."

"What's in it for me?"

"I'll buy you a corn dog." He slid me the rings.

"I'm in." I smirked, then looked to the pretty girl beside me. She smiled back. The man kept his promise, and each ring landed perfectly on a bottle.

"See? I knew what I was doing." The man handed her the bear.

"Thank you," She smiled, then hid in the bears soft fur.

"Aww..."

"Don't forget, you owe me one." The man whispered.

"Yep..." I whispered back, then walked away with Y/n's free hand in mine. As we walked, she leaned her body into mine. I kissed the top of her head.

"Oh shit, what time is it?" I asked.

"I dunno..." I checked my watch.

"Wait, I think the fireworks start in a few minutes. We should go."

"Okay..." I led her to the main area of the festival where a big makeshift stage stood smack dab in the middle of town square. People were singing and dancing around on stage and near it. That was when, I spotted Gerard.

"Gerard! Hey!" I waved him over, "When do the fireworks start?"

"Wow, looks like you two had fun," He chuckled, looking us up and down, "And Frank said not for another thirty minutes."

"Have you seen Awsten around at all?" She asked.

"Last time I saw him he was hangin' out with Frank. Frank's over doing the fireworks so he's probably over there somewhere."

"Okay, cool..."

"So, you wanna dance?" I asked her.

"I'd love to, but where should I put Klaus?" She motioned towards her bear.

"Gerard?" I asked, just before he was about to walk away, "Where are we sitting for the fireworks?"

"Uh, I got a spot up front, why?"

"Could you sit Klaus over there?" She held her bear towards him. He smiled.

"Sure..." He took the guy, "You two have fun." He held the bear in his arms, and walked off.

"You too," I said, then turned back to my girl, "Don't worry, Klaus' in good hands."

"Oh good, I was so worried." She sarcastically said.

"Well yeah, who wouldn't be worried about their kid!" She giggled.

"Alright Mikey, you said you'd dance with me. Let's go."

"Fuck yeah I did." With her hand in mine, we walked to the group of people dancing and singing around the stage. I let go of her hand as we joined the dancing crowd.

"Wow, Mikey Way's got moves." She giggled.

"Damn right I do." As we were jumping around and laughing loud, the music suddenly stopped, and the band switched out.

"I thought he said thirty minutes." She said.

"Me too..." Someone then got up on stage in front of the microphone, "Wait, is that Frank?"

"Oh, I think so."

"Hello everyone," The short boy began, "So, the fireworks have been delayed for a few minutes. A certain someone with blue hair wouldn't quit messing around."

"Awsten," She turned to me, "What'd you think he did?" I shrugged.

"Frank's usually really laid back, but when it comes to the fireworks shows, he gets tense."

"So, sorry for the inconvenience, the fireworks situation should be fixed soon. In the meantime, here's a band I can't remember the name of!" He ran off stage.

"Wow..." She spoke, most of the crowd seemed fairly upset. As the music began to play, everyone went back to celebrating, that is, until a slow song began.

"Y/n, may I have this dance?" I asked.

"Of course..." She blushed as I held her close to me, "I'm really bad..."

"That's okay, I'm shit." She smiled.

"I can see why so many girls like you. You're so, sweet." My eyes were stuck to her flower painted face.

"You're not gonna leave me cause of that, are you? Those girls... I was with them a long time ago."

"No, everyone's got a past. I sure do..."

"Maybe you could tell me about it sometime."

"Maybe one day. It's a lot."

"Well then, I'll be waiting."

At this point I hadn't even realized how close our lips had become. She bit her lip, then closed the short gap. Her arms wrapped around my neck, mine went to just above her waist. We both leaned into each other, making the kiss far more better.

Pulling away, our breathing was heavy. Each of us smiled as we leaned our foreheads against each other. Just as I was about to speak, the first firework went off, startling both of us.

Both of us just laughed as the pretty fireworks danced across the sky. She pulled away from me to watch the pretty lights, I couldn't help but hold an arm around her. Her eyes met mine as she smiled and kissed my cheek.

"You just can't pull away from me, can you?" She asked.

"I can't help it! I just really like you."

"I really like you too." This time, I smiled and kissed her cheek.

"When this is over, wanna go to my place?" She brought me back into another kiss, then pulled away.

"I'd love to..."

"Sweet..." A really big, colorful firework went off, our eyes tore away from each other to see the beautiful lights.

"They're beautiful." She spoke, I looked to her.

"Yeah, so beautiful," Her eyes caught me looking at her. She smiled and playfully pushed me, "And so cute..." I kissed her cheek.

"Mikey..." I love it when she speaks my name...

A pretty pink shade spread across her cheeks. The big lights of the fireworks reflected off both of our faces. Blues and greens and yellows. The beautiful colors went off left and right, yet our eyes were still stuck to each other.

"Um... wanna get outta here?" I asked.

"Let's go..." We began walking, but suddenly, she stopped, and her eyes went wide, "Klaus..."

"Oh shit, where's Gerard?"

"He said they were sat in front somewhere." We walked around until finally, I spotted a familiar messy mop of black hair.

"Gerard!" I called, he turned around, "Where's Klaus!?" He held the bear up in his hands. Y/n had the biggest smile on her face as she ran to retrieve her sweet baby boy.

"Aww, thanks for keeping him safe, Gerard!" She took the bear and snuggled into her fluffy boy.

"No problem, sugar. He was a pleasure."

"Oh yeah, if you see Awsten, could you tell him I went to Mikey's?"

"Yeah, he's probably with Frank or something."

"Thanks..."

"It's not a problem, you kids have fun."

"Aight, thanks again!" She said.

"Ah, young love..." He smiled.

"Gerard, you're a year older than me."

"Ah, young love..." He smirked, saying it again.

"See ya later, Gee." She said.

"See ya, sugar."

With her hand in mine, we walked to my apartment. The night sky had been lit up by thousands of stars. Her opposite arm was wrapped around the big brown teddy bear named Klaus. Happily, she leaned into me as she eyed the sidewalk. I held her hand up to my face and kissed it. She looked up at me and smiled.

"Mikey?"

"Yeah?"

"I've had so much fun with you. I feel like I always do."

"Aww, well the feeling's mutual." I kissed the side of her head.

"Good, I wanna keep ya around for awhile."

"For awhile? How long is that exactly?" She shrugged.

"I dunno, a few months maybe."

"Oh, well then I'm gonna make them the best few months of your life."

"Really? I'd like to see you try."

"Well you better strap in, it's gonna be a rollercoaster." I said as we began inside the apartments and upstairs.

"Bet..."

"Yeah? You really wanna bet?" I asked as we walked inside my apartment.

"Hell yeah..." She spoke as I kissed her. We each went back and forth and back and forth until somehow we had made it into the bedroom. I pulled away as we sat on the bed. My hands held hers.

"Sweetheart?"

"Babe?" She asked back, setting Klaus on the side of the bed. Tonight's the night... this feels good...

"Can I show you something?"

"Does it have to do with your beanie?" Hesitantly, I nodded, "Yes!"

"Okay, but, promise me you won't freak out or anything."

"Freak out?" She giggled.

"Promise me..." I said more stern and serious. She sent a strange look.

"I promise..." Her voice sounded soft, but somewhat scared at the same time.

"You can't tell anyone. Not even Awsten."

"Alright, I promise I won't," I took a deep breath, she sent a reassuring smile, "Mikey, whatever it is, I'm here for you."

"Thank you," I disconnected our fingers and brought them to my beanie, "Don't freak out."

"I promised I wouldn't."

"Good..."

Taking another deep breath, I shedded the bundle of fabric from my hair, revealing my long elf ears. They twitched just a bit from the change in temperature. My eyes were now focused on the mattress.

Everything inside of me was completely terrified of what this pretty girl would think. I couldn't help but worry to myself about every little thing through the past few seconds. She probably hates me now...

But, to my surprise, a strange feeling went to my ears. Looking up, I found her fingers carefully touching them. They just twitched from her warmth, she pulled away. Suddenly, she began to giggle, and then laugh. It wasn't in a mocking sort of way, but a happy, delightful sort of way.

"Mikey, they're adorable!" She smiled, "This is what you've been hiding? Oh, wow, I thought you were some sort of alien or something."

"Nah, I'm just an elf."

"An elf!? You mean..."

"Yeah, they exist, and Gerard's one too."

"Wow, my boyfriend isn't only a slut, he's an elf, too!" She cheered, I just laughed, "Wait, what about the other boys?"

"Frank's a dwarf, Ray's a giant."

"So there are more magical things here..." She began to think, "Is this why you guys were so weird when we first met?"

"Oh, yeah, we thought you figured it out."

"No, we were way off! Wow..."

"You're not gonna tell Awsten, are you?"

"Right, I can't tell him. Fuck, but he's my best friend! He wouldn't tell a soul!"

"Babe, just me telling you about this is dangerous. If Awsten knew, it could end badly. I'm not saying he's bad or anything, I just don't want my town to be sold to the government or whatever."

"Fine, I won't tell him..." Her tone was saddened, "But he's gonna be real pissed if he finds out. He hates it when I keep secrets from him."

"Sweetheart, this isn't just a secret. It's keeping people safe."

"I know..." Her tone was still saddened.

"C'mere..." I brought my arms around her, then kissed the side of her head. Eventually we had started kissing each other again, to the point where I now lay on top of her. She held a very strange look.

"Mikey..." I hummed, pulling my lips away from her skin, "Can we stop?"

"Uh, sure..." I got off of her, "Is there any reason? Did I do something?"

"It's not you. If it's alright I don't really wanna talk about it right now."

"Okay, it's getting late anyways. Wanna just go to bed?" She nodded, "Cool..." She sat up on the bed as I handed her a pair of mix match pajamas.

"Thanks..."

She kissed the side of my head and went into the bathroom to change. Quickly, I changed into my own set of mix match pajamas. With her out of the room, I stared at myself in the mirror. It's been awhile since my ears have stuck out... I'm so happy she liked them... she's the best...

"Hey..." She said, cracking the door open with her clothes in her hands.

"Hey," I greeted, "You can just put those on my drawers."

"Okay..." She did so. I climbed into bed, then held my arms out for her. She smiled, "You're so..." She began but was caught in the middle of a yawn, "... adorable..." She finished, then climbed in.

"Aww..." My arms wrapped around her, she lay comfortably close to me.

"I like your ears, they make you even cuter." I smiled.

"Good, I was really nervous about showing you."

"I could tell, your hands were shaking."

"They were? I couldn't tell." She yawned.

"Yeah..." It went quiet for a moment, "Goodnight, Mikey."

"Goodnight, Y/n." And in almost an instant we had both fallen fast asleep.
