Check Yes Juliet

Part 6/ Apologizing

Gerard felt horrible. Horrible was an understatement actually. He pissed Ray off, made Mikey cry & now Frank probably thinks he's an asshole. Mikey wasn't talking to Gerard, he had promised he'd get Ray back but he was still beyond pissed. Without Ray around, he didn't really care. Gerard noticed that Mikey didnt straighten his hair that morning. Which was hella strange.

"Moiki what about your emo beauty?"
Gerard said trying to get at least a giggle out of Mikey. "Who cares? I have no one to impress. You said I looked like an asparagus anyway." Gerard tried not to laugh, cause Mikey did look like an asparagus. "Mikes im going to apologize to him today now go straighten your hair you curly haired asparagus." Mikey grinned. "Okay Geetard." After he did so they got on the bus & arrived to schoolio. Gerard saw Ray & thought he'd be funny then maybe ray would consider accepting his apology.

"Hey Rayhizzle, your fro sure looks radical today. How bout you come over after schoolio to my hizzle & we can hangizzle?" Ray turned around & gave Gerard a weird look. "If you think talking like snoop dawg is going to get you anywhere, you are "wrongizzle"." Ray said. Gerard sighed. He had really fucked up this time. "Look Ray, I'm really sorry. But if you don't forgive me I understand, but will you please let us get over this for Mikey? He really likes you." Ray blushed "h-he does?" Gerard nodded, "yeppity yizzle, so will you consider coming over later & hanging out?" Ray stood in silence for a minute then gave gerard a blank expression while closing his locker. "No." And walked away. Gerard really thought it had worked for a minute.

If Gerard couldn't get Ray back he might as well see if Frank thinks he is an asshole now. "Hey frank.." Frank grinned, "hey gee. Im sorry if I caused trouble the other night." Gerard smiled. "No it was me. It's alright." "Oh okay well Gerard there's something we need to talk about." Gerard was a tad worried but didn't expect much. "Well um Gee.. There's a lot of drama between you & Ray. And its centered around me. Well Ray is apart of the school newspaper & like I've said before, I'm popular. I have a reputation. And I'm scared since he knows now.. He'll do something. So Gee I love you but I can't do this any longer. Sorry. Its over." Gerard's heart sank, he was left breathless for a minute. "Wh-what.. Your kidding right??" Frank sadly nodded. "I'm sorry" The bell rang, & everyone went to their classes except Gerard. He stayed shocked in the empty hallway. Gerard leaned up against the lockers & slowly sank down until he was sitting on the ground. Tears streamed down his cheeks, and he buried his face in his hands. Frank looked out into the hall about to get the books he forgot when he saw Gerard crying. He felt awful & he had really loved Gerard but had a reputation. "Its cool I'll be okay, I don't need my notebook." He said closing the door, not being able to go out there & stand beside crying Gerard. He just couldn't.

Later, after school Frank decided he had to have Gerard. He loved him too much to let him go. Especially over some stupid highschool reputation that won't even matter after they graduate. It was dark & Frank had came up with a plan. He went to Gerard's house & was going to do a romeo & Juliet.

Frank arrived at Gerard's house & remembered the lay out of the house from the last time he had came over. From the outside he picked out Gerard's bedroom window. He picked up some small pebbles & picked up his acoustic guitar.

He threw the pebbles at his window until Gerard opened it. "What the fuck are you doing?" Frank just grinned & began playing. "Check yes Juliet are you with me, rain is falling down on the sidewalk I won't go until you come outside! Run baby run don't ever look baack they'll tear us apart if you give them the chance! Frank sang. Gerard began to tear up as he ran down his stairs & outside into the rain. Frank put down his guitar when he saw Gerard. Gerard ran & hugged him. Frank smiled. "I'm so so sorry that I picked my stupid fucking reputation over you. Take me back?" Gerard wiped his tears. "Yes!" Frank pushed soaked black hair out of Gerard's face & kissed him. "I love you." Gerard said. "I love you too Gee. And I'm not ashamed of it." Frank said.
