Chapter 20 - Finding the Right Gift for Gerard...Cause He Deserves It
An hour latter Monica found herself in Donna's car with Gerard and Ray. They were headed to the mall. After he had announced he was going shopping Monica had mentioned that she too had some gifts still to buy. She hadn't been planning on going with him since one of the gifts she needed to buy was for him, but he had insisted.
"We can each go out separate ways in the mall then meet back together for lunch" Gerard said while pulling out into traffic.
Ray turned around and looked at the car behind them. "Man you totally just cut that guy off. Tell me again why you are driving? I mean this is the time of year for a Christmas Wish not a Death Wish"
"Oh, very funny. There is nothing wrong with my driving. Besides I have to practice cause I'm gonna buy a new car." Gerard changed lanes without the benefit of a blinker. The driver in the other lane honked and the gesture he gave wasn't a greeting.
"Your going to buy a new car" Ray snorted "Yea he wants to by a Dodge Stratus. Come on, get real. How about just go for a mini-van."
Gerard looked at his friend thru the rear view mirror "What's wrong with a Stratus?"
Ray rolled his eyes "One word BORING. How about a Corvette or a Viper. Hell yea, sports car man. Go for a sports car"
Monica laughed "There is nothing wrong with a Stratus. However, a cable- knit sweater?"
Both men looked at her a minute then Gerard smiled "Oh shit you read the interview I did for Blender magazine. I did say I was gonna by a Stratus and maybe a cable-knit sweater." He laughed, "Never did find the corduroy pants"
Monica giggled "Too bad, I was worried about you finding comfortable pants" She looked out at the gray cloud covered day and smiled. This just felt like a good day. She had told Gerard about her past and it was like a burden had been lifted off her. It was the small voice in the back of her mind that reminded her she hadn't told him everything that tried to ruin the day.
"Are we there yet?" Ray whined in a little kid voice. "I'm hungry I want to eat. Hey Gerard I gotta go to the bathroom"
Gerard looked over at Monica "It is so hard to take him anywhere." He pulled into the parking lot of the mall. "It is just after 10:00. We meet at the food court at noon. Everybody OK with that?"
It was agreed that was a good plan and soon they set off in different directions. Monica couldn't decide what to get for Donna. She decided to try to find something for her first. After looking in several stores she finally found it.
It was a beautiful porcelain doll for her collection. She knew Donna would love it. She also bought a lovely card that expressed how she felt towards the woman who had become like a mother to her.
A few stores latter she found several great items for the girls. A sweater Kelly had admired a few weeks ago, a jacket for Kara and CD's for both girls. Added to the gifts she has already gotten her shopping for them was completed.
She got small gifts for Jamia, Alicia, Bob, Ray, Frank and Brian. Her Christmas funds were getting smaller and still she hadn't found the right gift for Gerard. She had reached the end of the mall when she saw the comic store. She walked around for a bit then she spotted just what she had been looking for. It was Doom Patrol #19. The first comic in the series done by Scottish writer Grant Morrison and it was autographed. She hoped Gerard would like it.
However it was when she was on the way back to the food court she found one more thing that made her laugh out loud. She picked up the item and laughed again. It was just right cause as he said in the Blender article - He Deserved It.
----------------------------
Ray was standing out front of the Hot Topic near the Food Court when Monica spotted him. He waved at her "Hey, Gee is inside he told me to keep an eye out for you."
She shifted her packages and stood next to him. "I am so ready for lunch. How did your shopping go?"
"Eh, you know. Found a few things. I actually had most of my gifts bought months ago." He glanced back in the store looking for Gerard.
"Ray are you always so organized and on top of things?" she rolled her eyes "had Christmas gifts bought months ago."
He didn't mind her teasing him "Yea, that just how I am. I hang with a bunch of guys who need organization. Actually they need a keeper."
Monica laughed, "So are you the grown-up of the group?"
He shook his head "I think I am." He looked in the store once more and spotted Gerard. His friend was being stopped by several girls. "Oh, shit, he's surrounded"
Monica looked in the front window and saw that he was indeed surrounded by a group of girls that was getting larger by the minute. She looked at Ray to see if he had a plan. He shook his head negative. "Sometimes this happens. He should have worn the dress."
"Worn the what?" Monica was sure she had heard him wrong "I could have sworn you said worn the dress"
Ray laughed "You should see the look on your face, its priceless. A few times Gee has actually worn a dress and wig out so he isn't recognized. Put lots of make-up on the guy and hey, he's a babe."
"OK Ray, you just called Gerard a babe." She shook her head and giggled.
Ray shrugged "Well it's true. Once in London he went out shopping for hours and the only person who stopped him was a guy who tried to pick him up."
Monica was trying to imagine Gerard in a dress. Ray laughed, "Your trying to get a mental picture aren't you? Want me to freak you out and tell you it's a very short dress?"
She punched him on the arm "That's enough" Damn if the picture in her head wasn't kind of hot. She forced it out. Looking in the window he was still surrounded.
"Well I'm never going to get lunch at this rate, stay out of sight" she declared. Walking into the store she reached Gerard just as he finished signing another autograph. "Gerard we have to go now," she told him.
He looked at her, as did the girls around him. One was bold enough to ask, "Who are you?"
Monica smiled "I'm a friend of the family." She reached out and took Gerard's arm and led him to the front of the store. The girls still followed. She totally understood how they felt. "Hey, I know you all love Gerard but he has to go now. You guys understand" They all shook their heads and stared to back off a bit.
They walked out of the store and started down the mall. Once they had ducked into a larger store he spoke "You handled that great, thanks. I always like to sign autographs and talk a bit but sometimes it's hard to get away. I just don't want to disappoint anyone. We have such great fans and I really do like meeting them."
"Your fans truly love you and they understand. I know how they feel. The first time I saw you in person." her voice trailed off.
He looked at her; his eyes narrowed "What?"
She just gazed at him and shook her head "Oh no I'm not going to tell you anything. If you remember Mr. Way you were not very nice to me the first time we met. I believe you referred to me as a middle-aged woman. And you were not too happy about me living in your old bedroom."
He laughed and took several of her shopping bags from her. He leaned down so his forehead and hers touched "I'm very happy you are living in my old bedroom now and fucking ecstatic you are sleeping in my old bed."
Monica loved the sexy voice he was using, "Oh don't start with that voice"
He looked puzzled "What voice?"
She giggled realizing she had just spoken words she was thinking, "That's your sexy voice, Gerard." She looked around to make sure no one was watching them.
He grinned, "Sexy voice, for sure. I only use the sexy voice when I want sss...." he brushed her lips with his "well you know"
Indeed she did know. She also knew they needed to find Ray. Luckily her appeared without a search. "You guys ditched me," he complained.
Gerard laughed, "Did not. Come on I'm hungry" He stared toward the door leading to the mall.
"Hey man don't you think the girls will be looking for you now? I mean Monica got you out once but I don't think it's a good idea to go back out in the mall anymore today." Ray told him.
Monica agreed, "I think Ray is right. Both of you guys are just too easy to spot. We could grab some fast food on the way home"
Gerard looked unhappy but finally agreed. They had left the car on the other side of the mall and the only way to get to it was either go through the mall of walk around the outside parking lot. It was freezing cold so that wasn't a great option.
"You guys stay here no one would look for you in this store." The guys looked around for the first time and had to agree. It was doubtful anyone would look for them in a maternity shop.
"I will go thru the mall and get the car. I can pick you up at the entrance over there" she pointed to an outside entrance not far away. "Now I'm going to leave my packages with you but you have to promise not to peek in any of them."
Gerard just smiled but Ray answered "I will keep him out of them"
Monica smiled and nodded to Ray then started out towards the mall. She had only gone a short way when someone grabbed her arm and spun her around.
