A/N: Request. Oh my ducking god I had so much fun writing this! Hope you like it =)

I was beyond exhausted. As I locked the doors to the small coffee shop I worked at, I sighed with relief. Finally done for today.
But as I walked up to my car I couldn't help but feel weird. As if I'm being.. watched. But I shook that thought aside and opened the door of my car. The weird thing was, when I tried to start the engine- nothing. A noise as if it wanted to come to life again, but couldn't. I hit the steering wheel and groaned. Fucking great. Opening the door with more force than intended, I searched for a cigarette. I needed one now, even though I stopped months ago. I stopped my movements though, when I noticed something hiding behind the oder side of my car. I frowned a little. "Hello?" I asked, but didn't get an answer at all. What the hell? Some weird creep was the last thing I needed right now. Suddenly I could spot some pink ears. Wait- what?
Not knowing what it was, I walked around the car, but stopped when I heard a squeaking and shuffling. Whatever it was, it was scared I guess. So I slowed down, and crouched down to slowly peak around the corner of my car. "Don't know if you understand me but I'm not gonna hurt you.." I said gently, slowly curiosity got the best of me, and I didn't care anymore if I got pranked or whatever. And there it was. A little mass of dirty pink fur, shivering. I somehow felt weirdly sorry for.. it, and reached over to touch it. It relaxed once I started to pet it's head, and I was amazed by how soft it's fur was. Like those weird chinchillas my grandma had. Damn.
"What are you..?" I said to myself while I looked at its face. A mask, it seemed, but it's eyes were full of emotion. "What am I gonna do with you huh.?" I said as I started scratching it behind its ears. It leaned into my touch, seemingly enjoying the attention. I stood up, and.. it (I should try to ask it's name) did the same because I held its hand , but squeaked again before grabbing it, holding it. "I'm sorry.. let me see?" I said, underlining my words with hand gestures. It nodded, holding it's hand out. It was hidden under a glove, but dirty, and I was sure I could spot blood. I removed the glove to be met with a pretty human like hand, although it's fur seemed to be too real to be handmade. Was this thing... actually an alien? "What happened? Poor thing.." I said as I looked at the scratches. They definitely stung, because it's hand was covered in dirt. "Did you fall?" I asked, and it nodded again. So it did understand me. Great. At least something. "Running." It said, and it's voice seemed child - like, yet sounded not very human. Still, a nice sound to be honest. A very feminine touch. So it maybe was a she. "Why where you running?" It's eyes suddenly held a worried look to it. "Away. Bad people. Tried taking Lola." I caressed it's- no, her- cheek. "So your name's Lola?" She nodded. "I'm y/n. I'm gonna clean your hand up okay?" I said, before opening the car door to grab a half empty bottle of water. It shrieked a little because hell, that Must've stung, but I mumbled a sorry and she didn't pull her hand away. "You should leave the glove off or it will hurt again. Are you all alone?" She shook her head with an excitement that made me suspicious. It grabbed my hand with her good one, dragging me down some alleyway. It was in this moment, I knew something was off. This was the end. I was being kidnapped by a fucking alien. What a way to go.
We reached a metal door, that opened up once Lola pushed against it. She ran to the middle of the seemingly empty hall, shouting a name it seemed. I just walked behind her, slowly, because who knows what the hell her friend was. I heard someone talk, and footsteps, and Lola seemed to be as excited as a child going to Disneyland. The darkness revealed not a monster or something like that, but a very handsome man in a blue suit and dark orange hair. Lola couldn't seem to calm down, she started talking, but way too fast. "Lola.. Lola stop I can't understand what you're saying." He smiled, chuckled even at her behaviour, but took her by her shoulders, breathing with her. "Nice! Woman friend! Woman not scare! Woman right! Found her, found her!" She said, pointing towards me. I was actually smaller than her, which made things even more awkward for me. The man however held out his hand, a very polite, and surprisingly human gesture. "My name is Gerard Way. Nice to meet you." But as soon as our hands touched, his pupils got smaller, and I swore I heard him gasp. But I couldn't really tell, because I felt like something just pushed me over a cliff, making me loose my balance for a second. I shook my head and Gerard helped me up on my own two feet again, now having the same amazed and excited expression. "Lola, get the ship ready, we're finally leaving!" Lola made excited noises, like a puppy or something like that. "What just.." he just shook his head. "I'll explain later. For now you're coming with me." What?! But I couldn't react, couldn't tell him no, because he was already leading me to a weird rocket-like thing. A pretty busted door opened with a cracking noise, and Gerard jumped in, Lola already waiting. Both of them held out one of their hands for me to take, and I honestly didn't knew why;
But I took them. I mean, this had to be a dream anyways.

At first I was hesitant. It was quiet as we took off, flying higher and higher up into the night sky. "I'm sorry, that Must've been.. much to take, I guess. But you can ask me anything now." I finally sat down in front of him, thinking. "What.. what are you?" He chuckled, and laid his hands on the table, his face calm now. "As you already know, my name is Gerard Way. And I'm an alien, you could say. I wasn't born on your planet. Lola over there is an orphan I picked up while traveling your milky way. Since then we staid together and tried to find true beauty." I blushed, why would he find something.. in me? "You see, on my home planet there are thing that are pretty. Things that are perfect. But something is only considered beautiful when it has the right amount of flaws and perks. You can only find that in one specific person in your lifetime. There is only one person for you out there." I seemed to get it now. "And this person is... me?" He nodded, and Lola came to join us, sitting on the floor next to my chair. I smiled and stroked the pink fluff on her head between her ears. "So.. where do we go now?" He shrugged. "Somewhere. We'll see what's up ahead and travel." He stood up and offered his hand which I gladly took, leading me to a window.

"Goodbye

"Goodbye." I said gently, and his hand rested on my lower back while watching the earth fly by. "You can still go home if you really want to, you know?" He said softly, and I turned around to face him. "..no. I still don't really get it, but I'm not leaving you." I said smiling, and suddenly, I felt like something just shot me. He was kissing me, and it felt so amazing I couldn't help but kiss back eagerly. He chuckled, and picked me up to throw me over his shoulders, sitting me down in front of the spaceship. What I saw made me gasp.

"Home." Lola said while pointing to the swirling stars. Gerard smiled next to me, nodding. "We were both born from this stardust. As well as you, by the way. Your journey began long ago. But that's a story for a different time." I didn't quite get what he was telling me there, but what I was watching got me so hypnotizing I didn't even care. If this was a dream, I didn't want to wake up. I mean, reality was a lovely place, but hell, I never wanted to live there again if it meant I couldn't experience those things I did in that moment. I fell in love with this alien and his link friend. They were so honest and yet unbelievable. Suddenly, I felt gerard kiss my neck. "I can hear your thoughts sometimes, by the way." I blushed darkly. Shit. "I love you too." He said, and as we laid on the sleeping mattress in the back of the Rocket, Lola rubbed her eyes and plopped down next to me, laying her head on my lap, tiredly placing my hand on her head. Gerard and I giggled at her childish behaviour, but I began to softly pet her head anyways, until we all fell asleep, while flying through space.
