Save Me From This Hospital Bed

Chapter 5

"Frankie," he took my hand into his, his eyes trained onto mine, studying. I flashed a nervous smile. "I would like to eventually become more than friends. I know we've only just met, and I don't want to rush anything. I just want to let you know my intentions. I like you, Frankie. I really like you. In the little time that I've known you, you've made me laugh, and the way you stuck up for yourself was amazing. I need someone like you in my life- friends first, of course. If it leads to more, then great. Will you be willing to help me see if you fit that gaping hole in my life?"

I was astonished that he is already so fond of me. Even I was not that fond of myself. "Gerard- I- Yes," I stutter. He smiled. I only saw him for a brief period. I came back to reality when Mikey cleared his throat, describing the awkwardness for the Ways. I looked at my feet, my face beat red.

"Anyway... We should... Uhhh... Get that coffee, eh, Frankie?" Gerard continued to hold my hand. I nodded. "I'll meet up with you guys, later, okay?" There was a collaborative yes."okay. Bye. Love you, guys."

He quickly hugged each of them. He and I walked down the block to a Starbucks.

"So, kind of coffee do you like?"he asked.

"I'm not particularly picky... But I prefer my coffee with a little bit of cream, and a little bit of sugar...," I grinned. He smiles at me. I felt my heart skip.

"Okay...," he opened the door and we walked in. "Go sit, and I'll get our coffees. Sound like a plan?" I nodded willingly.

After getting our coffees, Gerard and I talked as we drank. Surprisingly, almost no one was there, at the coffee shop. Once or twice, a fan would come up to Gerard and ask for his autograph. He'd said yes and signed whatever they wanted. He was so nice, and polite.

"So, Frankie, what would you say if we were to hang out a little bit today?" He asked. I nearly choked on the mouthful of coffee that I was in the midst of swallowing.

"Sure," I sputtered. "Love to."

"Glad to hear it!" He cheered quietly.

We ended up at his family's house. Gerard, Mikey, and I played video games in Gerard old room. His room was the basement, which was pretty cool. He had band posters up and action figures here and there. It was a nerdy paradise!

We played Final Fantasy (truth be told, I have no idea which one we were playing) for several hours. Gerard and I watched Mikely play for a bit. He was good- far better than Gerard or I.

Once we grew bored with that, we played Grand Theft Auto five. Mikey actually sucked. He didn't know what to do. Gerard and I gave him directions (because we were too busy talking and shouting orders at the younger Way) and he followed none of them.

"Mikey! Kill the guy confront of you!" Gerard ordered. I cracked up. Mikey disobeyed and played as he wished- which, really, was just him getting killed by other players...

"Miiiiiiikeeeey!" Gerard whined. I laughed and joined in on his childish ways.

"Do it, Mikey! Or join the dark side!" I whispered in his ear. Gerard giggled.
"Really? You're Darth Vader now? Honestly, you aren't Randy Orton, so I won't listen to you," Mikey said.

"Who?" I questioned.

"One of his nerdy wrestler guys."

"By quiet, you. And it is not nerdy!" Mikey exclaimed.

"Okay... Not nerdy at all..."

"Say the one who claimed his phone was haunted."

"It was!!"

"Gerard, haven't we already went over this?" I sighed. "Your phone was not haunted."

"You know nothing!!"

Who knew hanging out with Gerard Way could go like this?
