Parent Talk and A New Band
Dylan was in the living room of his new home bored as could be. Bliss had left a few minutes ago since she has some photos she was gonna take of her twin. Sally had finished doing her fashion collection she has been working on since freshmen year so she wanted to start promoting herself. Dylan looked down at his bump and smiled. He had found out yesterday that he was having twin boys. He had told Miles and the two were ecstatic.
"Hey boys. This is your mom speaking. I can't wait to see you boys. Your father is coming home in two more week's" He felt a kick under his hand and another close by. "I know. I'm excited too"
Dylan was gonna continue talking to his boys, but the phone started ringing. He grabbed his phone from the coffee table and sighed once he saw who it was.
"What's up Kit?" Dylan said into the phone.
"Hey man. Can you text me the address to your new place?" Kit asked.
"Alright. Why do you suddenly want to come over?" Yesterday he had invited the younger boy over and he declined.
"Cause I'm calling a meeting" with that he hung up.
Dylan looked at the phone in disbelief. "Alright then. Bye to you too"
He texted Kit his address and then got up to go change. He put on a loose grey t shirt and his pants with the elastic on top. He was pretty big now since he was about to be four months along soon. He put on his converse and headed back downstairs. He was getting himself a glass of lemonade when he heard the doorbell ring. He went and opened the door to see Kit and behind him Bronx and Johnny. Kit was holding his guitar case and Bronx was holding on to the case that Dylan knew held their father's bass. Johnny was holding a bunch of the drum kit as he could.
"Um come on in" Dylan moved to the side to let them in.
"Where can we set up at?" Johnny asked.
"The basement I guess" They all went down there and Dylan watched them set up. "So what's this meeting about?"
"We're becoming a band" was all Kit said.
"What. No. I can't be in a band. I'm pregnant"
"Come on Dylan. We can easily become a band" Kit told him. "I mean it'll be perfect. I even got a name. The Generation since we are all kids of the members of Fall Out Boy"
"That name is severely flawed since Johnny isn't" Dylan stated.
"I'm just a full in" Johnny said.
"I volunteered to play bass and we didn't know anyone else who can play the drums" Bronx said. "And hello my cute nephews" he placed his hand on his younger brothers stomach causing the others to smile.
"So are you in Dylan?" Kit asked as he put his guitar strap over him.
"I'm in, but you guys realize we won't be able to do many live performances because I don't want to public to know I'm pregnant"
"That's fine. We'll just write music" Kit told him.
"Now come on little brother! Get your guitar and let's start rocking out"

Miles was tilting his head back in the chair feeling a little tired. He was on the private jet with his parents. They were heading back to LA since Miles had finished with all his scenes. Frank had convinced Gerard to take a break and come back home for awhile.
Gerard was on his phone texting while Frank was looking out the window.
"Miles you never really told us why you wanted to do your scenes really fast to get home" Gerard questioned.
"Um" Miles scratched the back of his neck showing Frank that his son was nervous. "I should of told you guys sooner, but you guys are gonna be grandparents"
"Oh my God!" Frank shouted. "How exciting! You hear this Gee! Our baby boy is gonna have his own kids"
"I know. I heard" Gerard said as he grabbed a cigarette from the little table.
"Also Dylan is gonna be your son-in-law soon" Miles told them.
"It's one thing after another with you isn't it" Gerard whispered yet Frank heard.
"Why are you acting like this, Gee?"
He sighed and turned to look at his son. "Miles I get that you love Dylan, but isn't it super soon to be getting married. I sorta already knew Dylan was pregnant since I know when someone is pregnant"
"Mom. I'm happy. I always wanted to marry Dylan and have a family. I know it's all starting sooner then anyone can think but I'm so fucking happy" Miles said.
Gerard nodded and gave a apologetic smile. "All I want is for you to be happy Calix. I love you" Gerard went and hugged his son and kissed his forehead.
Frank smiled at the two and went back to looking out the window. He couldn't wait to get super excited with Pete and Patrick.

Miles got into the cab after putting his baggage in the trunk. His parents took another cab to head home while he drove to the studio. He had an interview to do with Ellen to release the photo for Umbrella Academy. No one has seen what the real life movie would look like yet. They just knew who the cast was.
He looked out the window watching the cars go by.
His phone rang and he looked to see it was Dylan. "Hey baby. I just landed but I have to go on Ellen"
"Alright. I'll see soon though?" Dylan asked.
"Of course. I can't wait to see you and the boys"
"Love you"
"I love you too. I just got here so I'll call you later. Bye" Miles hung up and got out of the car. He walked in with his stuff and was led to his dressing room backstage.
Someone came in and told him he was gonna go on stage soon. He stood up and head to the side of the stage.
"Alright. So our next guest is mostly know from his band Hippo Campus but now he is playing the role as Calix AKA number 7 in the live action movie of his mother's comic The Umbrella Academy. Please welcome Miles Iero"
Everyone cheered and Miles smiled and waved as he walked over to take his seat.
"Wow. It's crazy to be on here." Miles said smiling.
"Yeah. The last time I saw you, you were just a baby"
"Yeah. My mom came on the show and was showing pictures of me" Miles said.
"Now look at you all grown up. You're stealing everyone's hearts" the crowds cheered as Miles laughed embarrassed.
"I wouldn't say that" Miles told her.
"Really cause every girl and guy out there loved this picture of you"
The crowed cheered and Miles hide his face behind his hand. "I mean you look like a model in this picture. Have you ever thought of going down that path since I mean you got the bone structure"
"Yeah. Thanks to my dad's wonderful bone structure and my mother's fabulous sense of style, I always look like a model. If I was gonna become one it would be farther in the future. I'm at the moment focused on acting." Truly all Miles wanted to focus on was his now forming family.
"That's why you're here. You are in the upcoming film The Umbrella Academy. Now you're playing a role that was basically written for you" Ellen said.
"If by basically you mean that number 7 is literally me then yes" Miles laughed as well as the audience.
"Yeah. Your mom Gerard Way, who written the famous comics, made the comic for you and your sister. Now for people who never read the comic since not everyone knows what we're talking about, can you tell us exactly the storyline"
"Well The Umbrella Academy is about these kids who are sorta in a way superheros, and it's about their lives as adults and such. Each volume has a different main story line of course" Miles explained.
"So what's movies story line then" Ellen asked.
"This story line is based mostly on volume 6 The Forgotten One. Basically you come to find out that Vanya who believed she was number 7, wasn't. They forgotten about me Calix Hargreaves aka number 7. So it's about me going crazy in a way"
"So you're the villian?" She questioned.
"In a way, yes" Miles smiled as he nodded his head.
"Now you're here to finally premiere the teaser. Would you like to look at the camera and share the news"
"I would love to" Miles turned his body in the chair and looked directly into the camera. "Here is a teaser for the upcoming film I am staring in, The Umbrella Academy" he smiled as the video showed up on the screen.
The scene was of a long couch. On the left end was Garrett Hedlund as Spaceboy. Next to him was Richard Armitage as The Kraken. He was sharpening one of his knifes. Beside him was The Rumor inspecting her nails. Floating beside her sitting criss crossed was Adrien Brody who was playing The Séance. Then there was the boy sitting next to him. Then there was Anne Hathaway who was playing The White Violin sitting on the far right playing her violin. There was a large space between her and the boy. There sat a paper that said #00.06. The Séance looked at the camera and tilted his head as he lifted his hand that had Hello on it. Then Miles walked into the frame. He pushed the paper over and sat down next to The White Violin. He looked at the camera with a raised eyebrow and then pulled his gun out and shoot the camera. The screen went to black and the title came up and just the words This Summer.
Everyone clapped as the cameras went back onto Miles and Ellen. They had moved to standing by the audience toward the stage.
"That looked amazing" Ellen said as everyone cheered. "Now since you brought us a surprise we thought we could give you one so here is a new band that is gonna perform a song written for you named Different. Here is The Generation"
Miles watched as his fiancé and friends performed. Dylan was looking at Miles as he was singing the words. Miles can see Dylan crying towards the end as he sang, "I love you. I love that you're different"
Everyone cheered for the new band and Miles ran over to kiss his very talented fiancé. Dylan held onto his guitar so the cameras or the audience wouldn't see his bump. Kit, Johnny, Bronx and Dylan stood together and bowed as they camera's went out.

Pete was in the bedroom sitting on the huge bed as he was writing in his notebook. He put emphasis on the period he put on the paper and threw his pen in a random direction. He grabbed his book and ran to the music room where Patrick was on his laptop.
"Trick! I finally finished it!" He shouted excited.
"Finished what?" Patrick asked.
"The lyrics for the song we're suppose to do" Pete said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
Patrick grabbed the book and read the words on the paper. He nodded his head as he was humming.
"As always it is perfect and I already got the sound in my head" Patrick told his husband.
"Then come on, Pattycakes. We got a song to record"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The married couple walked into the recording studio to see Andy and Joe were already there. There was also sound technician there just in case.
Patrick sat across from the guy and grabbed the acoustic guitar in the room. He started playing the tune he had in his head earlier. Pete sat on the sofa and took a picture of his stunning husband.
Joe grabbed his guitar and joined in while Andy left the room to find a restroom. Pete stood up and walked into the large recoding booth. He always loved the process of making music. Even back in the day when him and Patrick would fight and he would leave the building with a bloody nose. Pete grabbed the other acoustic guitar and put on the bulky headphones and started playing random chords.
He smiled and and looked up to see Patrick was staring at him. Pete always loved that Patrick always had that loving look when he looked at him. Of course the only expectations was when they fight. There was that one time that he didn't see the look for weeks and it killed Pete inside.
Pete looked back down at the guitar and thought about Dylan. He hoped that he would know this feeling. The feeling of being absolutely in love with someone. He knows that the boy would love his sons but Pete was never sure about Miles. As soon as they started going out, he knew the relationship wouldn't be all that great. The kid was trouble. Pete then realized that maybe this was how Patricia felt about him. She must of felt like Pete was trouble and really he was, yet she didn't stop Patrick from going on tour with him. Maybe it was because Pete talked her into letting him go. Maybe it was just the parent mode that let their children make their own mistakes. It's life and it sucks.
Pete felt a hand on his shoulder and he turned to see Patrick. "What are you thinking about?"
"Dylan's making a huge fucking mistake"
Patrick knew how this talk was gonna go so he walked towards the glass the separated the two from the other men and whispered, "Turn off the mics" he then pulled a chair so he could sit in front of his husband. "What do you mean?"
"Dylan shouldn't be with Miles. It's gonna end horrible"
"Well he's engaged to Miles and is already pregnant. There's nothing we can do, Peter"
"Then you agree with me. Our son is making a huge mistake. Why didn't you tell me you felt this way sooner?" Pete asked.
"Because we have to let the kids go through what we went through to fall in love with someone"
"I don't want that. I treated you like shit, Patrick"
"Yeah but it's one of the obstacles for falling in love" Patrick rested his hand on Pete's cheek as he looked him in the eyes. "Peter, we went through hell to be here with our five children and I know how hard it is to get hurt, but all we can do is watch. It's their turn to go through life on their own. Bronx and Dylan are adults now. It's time for them to spread their wings. Pete nodded his head and kissed Patrick.
This was one of the moments where they really hated being parents, yet they loved it so fucking much.
*Sneak Peek For Next Chapter*
"You're leaving?"
"Dylan I think you might be making a mistake"
"Do you have someone waiting for you if we can this off?
