"We're here guys, wake up!" Mikey said as he woke everyone up in the bus. Frank laid in bed grinning from how Mikey was excited. Frank got up from his bunk and saw Gerard sitting at the table with his notepad in his hand while biting on his pen lid. The look of Gerard biting that lid was hot to Frank. How he would move it around with his tongue while it was in his mouth, Frank loved it. 

"Good morning." Frank said as he walked to the kitchen to make coffee.  

Gerard and Mikey Both said hello.  

"Bob won't get up." Mikey said sadly. He was just really excited for the show because last time they were in Connecticut he had fun. Frank joined them with his coffee at the table, he sat next to Mikey.  

"Hey guys." Ray said as he went to get breakfast. He started making toast for him self.  

"Are you writing a song?" Frank looked into Gerard's eyes waiting for them to meet his. 

"Yea." Gerard said as he looked up to frank then looked back down. Ray came over and sat next to Gerard. Frank thinking he could of sat next to Gerard but his hands started to sweat and he got a tad nervous. Gerard closed his book, got his pen and slid it on the cover with the lid and threw the book on the table.  

"Don't you like it?" Ray said. 

"Eh." He was still looking at his book on the table.  

"You'll work it out." Ray said as he got up to go to the toilet leaving half eaten slice of toast on the table. Frank just sat there drinking his coffee thinking how can he start a conversation with Gerard. Gerard saw the toast that Ray left and he took a bite out of it then put it back on the plate. Frank let out a small giggle. 

"I would eat the whole thing but he might notice." They both giggled. Gerard picked up his book, flipped to the back of it and started to sketch. Frank was almost done with his coffee but not wanting to leave the table. Ray came back and sat down. He looked at his toast. 

"Umm." Gerard and Frank both started laughing but Gerard was laughing more and his face was going red and Ray knew it was him.  

"Gerard! How dare you!" Ray said it in a sarcastic sort of voice and then he poked Gerard's stomach knowing he was ticklish there. 

"Oh my god, I'm sorry please don't poke me!" Gerard said laughing. Ray looked at him and then said no and poked him two more times.  

"My food!" Laughing when Ray said that. Almost like treating Gerard like a dog has stolen his food instead. Ray finished his toast and got up to get dressed. Gerard did the same thing leaving Frank there alone with a mouth full of coffee left. He was just watching them have fun and thinking that it would be cool to have a tickle fight with Gerard. To make him laugh like that. To see his face and squished up when he laughs too much. Then Frank remember he doesn't like having these thoughts about Gerard. He would feel guilt when he did because he is his best friend.

"Oh my god!" Mikey ran to the others. "My first string on my bass broke!" Mikey ran to Gerard. "Get me another one." Mikey looked like he was about to cry. Gerard put his arm around him and went to get another. Surely they should have spare strings back stage somewhere. Gerard went with Mikey to get another string. Frank looked at Gerard as they both walked off then quickly looked back down biting his lip.  

"You okay?" Ray looked at him. 

"Ye I'm fine why?" Frank said trying to look happy. "I'm a little bit nervous." Frank thought that would cover up the weird look on his face, love and guilt. 

"Oh, just do your jumping jacks, you'll be fine, I'll do them with you if you want?" Ray said ready to start jumping up and down. 

I want to wait for Gerard first. "I want to get a drink first." Frank said instead. He was hoping Gerard would come back with Mikey very soon but knew he wouldn't. Frank went to the table which was against a wall and took a water bottle and took a long drink, drinking three quarters of the bottle. Then he put the bottle down slowly and started to think. He felt scared. Because he was about to perform but he hasn't been this scared. His hands were starting to shake. He turned around and saw Ray talking to stage crew about stuff. Frank drank more of the water leaving only a mouthful left. He put the bottle on the table then put his hands flat on the table and had his head down thinking. He felt a strong hand squeezed him tightly on his should then then hand turned him around. It was Gerard.  

"Frank." He said. "You drank all my water." Oh shit Frank thought but Frank could not get any words out. He basically stood there with his mouth stuttering open and closed like a TV on mute. "Dude we're going on in 5 minutes and I don't have any fucking water." Gerard left with the bottle. Frank stood there still, he looked like he was about to cry but didn't. Ray came up and hugged him. 

"We have to go meet the rest next to the sage now." They both walked off. Ray had his arm around Frank and Frank was looking down.  

Ray knew that there was definitely something bothering him he, it was just common sense to Ray. He was just hoping after tonight, after the show he'll be better and forgot about what it is.

The crowd is cheering and shouting 'MCR' over and over again. Frank, Ray and Mikey were waiting with each other ready to go on. Then Gerard and Bob came running towards them. 

"Sorry guys." Gerard said laughing. We were talking to the band that opened for us and forgot that we were going on." They both laughed. They all stood in a circle with arms around each other now.  

"Let's just have some good fucking fun." Ray said. The all smiled and laughed. No more was needed to said.  

The crowd got louder and they started to walk on stage. As Frank was about to walk on his arm got pulled by Gerard's hand.

"Hey, no heart feelings from before right?" He said with a very kind smile. "I mean it's jut water and I was kinda stressing, we cool?" Gerard said 'we cool' in a gangster sort of voice.  

"Sure, we cool." Frank smiled but to Gerard it looked liked a fake smile or a sarcasm smile.  

"Alright let's go." Gerard and Frank walked out together and the crowd was loud. 

"Let's just do this." Gerard said into the microphone and the intro to Nanana started to play.
