Gerard's POV:
"I'm gay." Did I just say that? Oh god even worse, did I just say that to Frank? The person I have a crush on?!
"No surprise there." What did you just say.
"Wait, so you thought I was gay already?" This shocked me like electricity. Okay not really, I guess I do sometimes feminine and sassy, but forget about that! That's just a stereotype, that wouldn't mean I'm gay.
"Well not really... Can I ask who are you gay for?" Oh shit.
"What do you mean by that!? You don't turn gay, you're born gay, you can't automatically be attracted to the other gender whenever you want." Ugh frank you should know this!
"Woah, sorry! I didn't know that offended you so much... But still, do you like any one?"
Of course I do, you!
"Nah, I've just seen a few guys here and there, thought they all looked cute, never really noticed the girls and I always wondered why." I'm such a bad liar, please believe me Frankie.
Frank just stares for a while, staring at me. Does he like me back? No, he's attracted to girls, I know this.
"Okay I believe you gee. You don't have to have a crush to be in the lgbt community, obviously."
"What?" I've heard of that term before, I just rarely hear it being used.
"Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender. Sometimes it's lgbtq and the q is for queer."
"Cool, I never really knew what that stood for..."
"Well now you do! Hey, when you're done drawing, what do you think of meeting up with me at six in the coffee shop around the corner? We could discuss this P.Repose girl." Meet up? Just me and you? Like a date?!
"Yeah, is the rest of the band going to be there?" Hope not. Don't want my own brother to be a cock-block.
"Nah, I think we should discuss this author woman ourselves. We are the only vampires we know apart from our parents.
"Yeah- wait, how do you know the author is a girl?"
"Found it on some fan website. Lots of people really like the books she writes, others hate them. There's no in between. It's like Harry Potter, you either love it or you don't. Sometimes the fandoms are fighting on social media, it's so funny!" I'm sure it is Frank. Sure it is. Now about that coffee meeting...
"So yeah, six pm today? Bezels coffee shop?" Bezels coffee shop was my favourite place to hang out with the band. It was a musical coffee shop where they allowed you to play instruments, they had guitars, pianos, ukuleles and more. I usually played the piano out of sheer boredom, I'd keep pressing the g note until Frank would take notice of me and tell me to stop.
AN: Bezels coffee shop does not exist, I made it up
"Yep, see you there in an hour."
"And you are one hundred percent sure me being gay won't affect our friendship?" Just making sure.
"Like I said, no surprise there." And with that he was gone out the door. He forgot to close the goddamn door again. I stand up and walk over to the door to close it and lean my shoulder against the door. One on one meeting with Frank at a coffee shop, but is it really a date? Nah, probably isn't, he didn't say it was. But did he have to say it was, or did he just assume I knew, or- OKAY GERARD STOP THINKING ABOUT THIS AND JUST GO FINISH YOUR DRAWING. I need a distraction from these stupid thoughts.
I sit back down and decide I should draw a portrait picture. But, who of? Ah I know. I stand up and walk over to where I keep my A3 sheets of paper and then return to my set. I reach over my desk to grab some oil pastels and start drawing a portrait of someone I know. I didn't even have a picture of them, I was drawing them from a memory.
