"You look wonderful, Gerard!"
Pat gushed.

"Thanks."

"Bert knew what would look good on you."

"Yeah," I agreed, and looked down.
I just wasn't in the mood.

Pete wore a striped shirt,
Over he wore a black coat.
Pat had leather on,
with a blue shirt beneath.

"Gerard, why have you been so quiet?"
I don't know, Patrick.
I don't know.

But I can't talk to you anyways.
You may think I'm crazy.

"You should be happy."
Pete eyed me,
"You're going to be seeing your boyfriend today."

Imagining Frank's face,
Forced a smile onto my lips.
Pete nudged me,
"See??? Now you're happier!"

I laugh,
"I can't help it. Thinking about him makes me happy.
He's such a wonderful man, you guys. you would love to meet him.
I love him a lot, and I think he'd like you too."

My face was hot.
Pete was laughing,
"You love him so much."

"I do!"

Pat muttered a "Romeo," at the end of it.
