If It Means A Lot To You... (Frerard)

(43) The Povs Of This Story Are So Screwed

(((Not Gerard again, it's in Jeremy's POV lmao)))

Ben found me crying the bathroom for the fifth time this week, basically every day this week then.

"Jeremy," He sighed, stepping into the stall, where I was sitting on the floor. "What's wrong man, this is happening every day, please tell me."

I didn't answer, I just buried my head in my knees, wetting my jeans with tears. "Jeremy," Ben said gently, sitting down next to me and putting a arm around my shoulder.

"It's stupid, you don't want to know," I shuffled away from him, turning my back to Ben.

"Dude," Ben moved closer to me, putting his arm around my waist this time. I froze at him touching me. "You can trust me, please?"

"I know I can trust you," I sniffed. "But I don't really know if I want to tell you." Ben sighed and pulled me back so I was lying down on his shoulder.

"Alright," He finally said after a few minutes. "You don't have to tell me right now, but I'll always be here."

I nodded and closed my eyes. We were both skipping class to sleep in the bathroom. Something like that doesn't happen everyday.

*****&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&*****

I woke up to find myself still sleeping on Ben. He was still fast asleep and his arms were wound tightly around my waist.

I just stared at him for awhile.

My best friend since forever, still didn't understand what was happening with me most times.

It only hurt a little bit, I was used to it.

I took a small paper note out of my side pocket and opened it. In the note I had written something for Ben.

The note was asking him to go to prom with me.

I doubted he would say yes, but I put it into his hand anyways and walked out of the bathroom.

My whole body was shaking nervously. I'd finally done what I had been meaning to do for weeks now.

I kind of felt a lot better now that I'd finally done it, there was now a huge weight off my chest.

Even though it could mean losing my only friend, it was worth it.

And so I went home with a happily nervous feeling in my stomach.

I felt the need to write this

Even though Ben Burnley is ten years older than Jeremy Mckinnon irl idc I ship it.
