___________________________________________________________________________________

After Gerard and Mikey went to their lockers and got their box of art supplies they walked into the art classroom and went to their seats in the back. When they sat down they set their stuff up on the table in front of them and sat waiting for class to start.

Their sketchbooks were in front of them, pencils to the right with an eraser, charcoal in the right corner, pastels directly in front of them (Above the sketchbook), and paints in the left corner. On the left side was any little extra things that they might need. 

Now Gerard was great at art. He was always restocking his supplies because he drew and painted so much. Mikey was alright, not as good as Gerard but still enjoyed the class. Even now Gerard was sketching something in the corner of a page in his book. He jumped when the bell rang.

"Hello class, " The teacher said, "Today we're going to be working on our projects again. I need them ready to be turned in by the next class."

Most of the class groaned but Gerard just smiled. He loved working on his project.

"Alright, get up and get your projects." Teacher lady said.

Everyone got up and went to the back where all the projects were. The project could be anything as long as it had a lot of color in it. Gerard was having fun with this project. He was about 3/4 of the way done. Mikey was also having lots of fun with this, he was almost done with his project. 

They grabbed their papers and went back to their desks. Gerard grabbed the oil pastels and immediately got back to work. Mikey grabbed his paints and started the finishing touches of his painting. They spent the rest of the class period working diligently on their art. Gerard was concentrating so much that he didn't hear the teacher announce that it was time to clean up. 

"Gerard," Mikey said.

Gerard still didn't acknowledge him.

"Gerrraaaaaarrrrrrdddddd." Mikey whined.

Gerard looked at him annoyed. 

"Whaaatt?" Gerard whined back.

"Time to clean up," Mikey said

Gerard groaned. He was almost done but now he would have to take it home to finish. He put his things away and then went to the teacher's desk.

"Umm... Could I stop by after school and grab my project to finish at home?" Gerard asked.

She smiled. "Of course. I'll be here."

Gerard smiled back. "Thank you." 

He walked back to the desk and sat down waiting for the bell to ring for the next class. He and Mikey talked about random things until it did. They walked out of the classroom and down the hall where Mikey left Gerard outside his World History classroom.

"See you in music," Mikey said, walking off.

Gerard walked into the classroom and looked around. Ray and Frank weren't here yet. He went to his seat in the corner and sat down, getting his binder out. He started reading over his notes as they had a big test today.

He didn't notice that one of the jocks came up to his desk till someone slammed a hand on it. Gerard flinched and looked up. 

"Hey there Gerard. How's it goin?" the jock asked.

Gerard just sat there. He didn't know what to do. Finally, he squeaked out a 'fine'.

The jock laughed, "Scared? You big baby. You gonna cry now too, Huh?"

Gerard shook his head. Where were Ray and Frank? Class was about to start.

"I've got something for ya." The jock said, putting a note on the desk. He laughed slightly and walked away.

Gerard shakily grabbed the note and opened it.

Hey Gerard. So I saw something interesting earlier today. You're a big crybaby, aren't you? This makes everything more interesting. Tell anyone about this happening and I'll go after your brother instead, got it? I know he knows about the other note, but any more and I go after him. Do you understand? -Dustin

Gerard was shaking. He didn't want anyone going after Mikey. No one was allowed to hurt Mikey. So if he had to get hurt so Mikey didn't, then so be it.

Gerard jumped when someone sat down next to him. He looked over to see Ray and Frank sitting down.

"You're super jumpy," Ray said.

"Yeah, I guess," Gerard said.

"Is something wrong?" Frank asked, watching him.

"Nope. Nothing's wrong." Gerard said, moving his binder so the note wasn't visible. 

They looked at him a moment longer. "Alright. If you say so."

Gerard sighed quietly. And looked up at the front of the room as the bell rang, signaling class to start.
