Gerards Pov:

I tie a bow in my skates and pulled it tight,being careful to make sure it wouldn't come undone on my way to work.I work in a small diner. It's pink themed and the uniforms are adorable.It consists of a pair of denim shorts and a  comfortable pastel pink jumper with the diner name and logo.It was mostly popular in the summer,school holidays and weekends,but during those times it was families with kids.Now don't get me wrong i don't hate children i just dislike them with a passion.They are always loud and get their food everywhere and i'm usually the one cleaning it up.Even though there were late shifts and children i loved working there the other workers were all really nice and i was friends with most of them.

I fish my keys out of my pocket and put them in the slot.The actual door to open the diner is pastel pink with blue stripes.There's a big sign above it that reads Pastel Palace.i sit down on one of the pink and blue booths and take off my skates they are a bitch to take on and off.I turn on all the chip makers and make myself a cup of coffee and start yesturdays undone wahsing up ,there is nothing quite the same as the coffee here.The bell ontop of the door rings

"Gee u here?"Someone shouts 

"Yeah!"i shout back he then taps my shoulders and i shriek

"Boo."He laughs

"Not funny."

"I thought it was."

"Because of that you can finish doing yesterday's washing up."

"Fuck you."

"You wish you could."

"Nah man."

"Just do the washing up."

"Alright Alright im doing it."

Don't get me wrong i love dom he's one of my best friends but he is a bit annoying.'Specially in the mornin,i wipe down all the tables and chairs i'm half way through mopping the pink tile floors when Dom walks out

"It's too early for this shit."he sighs

" I've almost finished mopping just make yourself a drink and flip the open sign"he flips

"aaaannnddd we're open u nearly done with that?."

"No there is loads of washing up you didnt do yesturday."

I'm behind the counter when a short boy around my age  maybe a bit younger walks in he's pretty the sides of his hair are blonde and shaved,the top of his hair is longer and black.He's wearing a black and shirt with the misfits logo in white 

Franks Pov: 

 walk into the small diner around the corner from the arcade where I work.The inside is built up completely of pastel colours,From the tile floors to the barstools.Kiss is playing quietly it can barely be heard but the the bartender seems to be enjoying it he's jumping around making some kind of Coffee.I walk up to the bar the bartender is facing the opposite direction singing along to the music he turns around and notices me.He has long bright red hair it makes his skin look really pale sort of like a vampire the kind found in horror movies.He's a pretty boy that's for sure

"Welcome what can I get for ya today?"He says in a cheerful tone "Black coffee please."I responded "That'll Be three dollars."I stick my hand in my pocket and fish out a ten dollar note I hand it to him "Keep The change."I say and sit down in a pink booth close enough to the bar to admire him.I sit there for about five minutes he brings over a cup of coffee and places it down on the table "I'm Gerard,Gerard Way."

"Frank Iero.""

"Gee stop chatting and get your ass over here!"Someone yells from the kitchen

"Duty Calls"

He smiles and dashes through the pink doors to the kitchen.The name suits him.He is wearing a baggy pink crew neck,it was so long I could barely tell he was wearing anything  underneath,under those he was wearing pink fishnets they outline the shape of his long legs.He was practically perfect.There was a big blue clock that read 9:04,four  minutes after my shift started I grabbed my stuff and fled down the street nearly bumping into two people and falling over three times I skidded round the corner and ran as fast as I could I ran straight past the record shop then the candy shop then the park I finish my journey by running straight into the arcade and behind the counter

"You're exactly. thirteen minutes late,do it again and it's coming out of your pay check I'm serious Iero if you aren't cleaning the penny machines in five minutes you'll be lucky to get a penny from me this month.""Alright Alright."I grab my work hoodie it says New Jersey arcade on the front and on the back it says frank.On my way back I run into Into Jamia my best friend,I've practically known her for ever

"Hey jem"I greet her

"hey Frankie how are you?"

"pissed Bryar's is at it again i swear he hates me."

"I wouldn't feel special he hates everyone especially his employes."She sighs 

"He'll hate you even more if he cant see his face on the penny machines."I sigh and get to cleaning the penny machies,they are the worst to clean little kids put their sticky hands all over the glass i get forced to clean every day,i don't get paid enough for this.Its to early for the arcade to even be ope why i have to be in here at nine on a saturday i don't know this place dosn't even open for another two hours so why i need to be here making glass shine just for kids to put there sticky little hands all over it i will never know.

Gerards Pov:

It was slowly getting darker outside and quiter inside.Saturdays are the hardest days here because its's our most busy day and there are only me and dom here all day.Dom walked out of kitchen,

"Hey gee it's nearly closing time,we can either do a cheeky and leave the cleaning for whoever is in early Tomorrow or we can do it now or-"

"No that's good you can go now I'll shut everything down if you do next time."

"Ight good night man cya."He waved
