gerard went completely still. he raised his head to look at me and i could see that he was beginning to shake. he took a deep breath and looked me in he eye. he shifted uncomfortably and lowered his head, mumbling something that i couldn't quite hear. i looked at him confused and he cleared his throat.

"his name is michael. or mikey to friends. but he doesn't let me call him that anymore."

i don't usually do authors notes but i just wanted to give some kind of update (?)
this is even shorter than the last chapter and i already apologised for how short that was. i probably should have put them in the same chapter, which now i really wish i had. i was originally gonna add more to this chapter but i really want to leave it there. i've decided to make this part two of chapter six. again i'm sorry for how short the chapters are but i'm currently updating every weekday. thank you so much for 400+ reads and 100 on the prologue! i'm really enjoying writing this :-) please vote x
