Prompt:Imagine Person A remarks how disgusting they think they are on an almost daily basis and it breaks Person B's heart.
Gee stared at his reflection in the bathroom mirror clearly disgusted with himself, he had many imperfections.Too many. sighing he put on the eyeliner and tried not to focus on his fat cheeks or chin that stuck out. His hair was a limp black mess.He was a mess.
"Gee, you ready?" Frank's head appeared around the door.
"Yeah I'm coming" He put on a fake smile and glanced at the mirror one more time
They played through: Helena, kids from yesterday and Thank you for the venom as well as four other songs.This was where Gerard belonged. Adrenaline flooding his veins.They high that was better than any drug. The audience singing along to every word. Frank crashing around on stage like a small puppy. Up here life was good,no crippling insecurities or problems.
"Since you've been such a wonderful mother fuckin' audience this afternoon" Gerard belted into the mic .
"We're gonna play one last song!" He grinned like a cheshire cat as the audience screamed
"This one's called Desolation row and I wanna hear all y'all beautiful voices"
After the show Gerard thanked them again for coming out and proceeded back stage to take of the now smudged eye liner.
"Hey me and Ray and mikey are going to sign some stuff I'll meet you back in the van" Frank's head appeared once again around the door frame to the small bathroom.
"Yeah Okay" Gerard faked a smile and turned back to staring at his reflection expecting Frank to leave.
"Gee are you okay?" The smaller man approached him
"Yeah I'm okay"
"There was that fake smile again" Frank mentally noted.
"Well okay I'm going to head out okay" Frank gave Gee one last smile before walking away.
The end of the night was a blur and before he knew it he was waking up on the couch back on the bus.The bus was quiet and so he guessed that every one had gone to sleep worn out from the nights show.Sitting up he grabbed the sketch book from underneath the couch and began writing.
"Now come one come all to this tragic affair
Wipe off that makeup, what's in is despair"closing his eyes he let the lyrics wash over him,thinking about their meanings.
"So throw on the black dress, mix in with the lot
You might wake up and notice you're someone you're not"He grimaced as he remembered that Frank suspected something was wrong and mentally cursed himself for letting the mask slip
"If you look in the mirror and don't like what you see
You can find out firsthand what it's like to be me""Hey" Gerard was pulled out of his thoughts as his best friend came and sat next to him.
"Hey" smiling he put the sketch book back under the couch and made room for his friend.
"You know you can tell me, right?"
"T-tell you what?" Gerard was trying his best not to seem panicky
"The thing that's eating at you, it's okay to need some one Gee"
"I'm not okay" He sighs
"Wanna tell me about it? or..."
"I'm a piece of shit"
Frank could almost hear his heart fall and shatter into a billion pieces
"I'm just a ugly piece of shit" Gee kept his gaze on the couch,willing the tears not to fall.
Frank was taken back at Gerard's comment, how could such a beautiful person think so little of himself?
"Gerard, you're not ugly" Frank pulled the taller man into a hug
"I am" his voice broke,breaking Frank's heart further
"No you are not, Gerard you are a fucking beautiful person who his as far as you can get from a piece of shit" Frank was angry at the thoughts that had been plaguing his best friend.
"Nobody will ever fucking love this stupid excuse of a-a thing!" Gerard was trying his best to keep his voice into a whisper so he doesn't wake the whole bus burying his sobs behind his hand.
"Shh it's okay Gee" Frank rubbed his back.
"It's not..."
"Gee listen to me, of cause some one loves you. The fans love you, Mikey,Ray and Bob loves you I love you,Your mum and Dad loves you"
"I just feel so damn lonely" he sobbed
"I'm here Geewhiz" Frank soothed
"I know" Gee sniffed, starting to feel a bit better.
"Gee, I mean it. People love you" He whispered
Nodding Gerard started to fall asleep. Lying Gerard down on the couch Frank crawled next to him and pulled the blanket over them.Gerard needed some one and he couldn't bare the though of leaving him alone.
