I just heard my grandpa sneeze from all the way across the house and it was just so fricking loud. It scared me.

Also happy 4th of July

Gerard's POV ~the next day~

I felt horrible today and my mom wasn't home this morning so I decided to stay home from school.

I got out of bed and walked to my desk and sat down. Jack immediately sat in my lap. I opened my sketch book to a new page and saw a few numbers in the bottom corner.

Frank had written his number when he took it yesterday...

"Gee." I heard as my door opened revealing a worried Mikey.

"I'm gonna go to school now. Are you sure you aren't coming?" He asked walking closer to me and looking at my sketch book.

"Yeah I'm sure.." I mumbled.

"Who's number is that?" He asked and I just looked up at him.

"Is it that guy Frank. Gee I told you to stay away from him. He's gotten in a lot of trouble for stuff. I don't think you should-" I stopped Mikey before he could continue.

"No it's just my new friend... D-Daniel..." I lied and quickly thought of a name. Mikey raised his eyebrow showing the fact that he didn't believe me one bit.

"Whatever. Bye I'm leaving.. And put some pants on!" Mikey said and left the house.

It had gotten to hot last night so I took my pants off. I was wearing boxers... this time....

I flipped to a different page and started sketching the body of a woman.

As I continued drawing I never paid attention to what time it was.

I eventually stopped drawing and went down stairs to get some cereal.

Jack had gotten off of my lap at some point and was now resting on my bed.

I looked at the time and saw that it was 10. Mikey left three hours ago. And I had been drawing the whole time.

I sat at the table eating cereal I took my phone out and saw that I had a text from someone.

I didn't recognize the number but read the message anyway.

"Hello, is this Gerard?" 

"Who is this???"  I quickly texted back and finished my cereal before walking back upstairs and into my room.

I grabbed my sketch book off my seat and sat on my bed and began to draw another woman figure. The first three had looked strange.
Jack snuggled close to my side.

I heard a buzz from my phone and grabbed it before seeing that I had another text from this mystery person.

"Its Frank. I got your number from Mikey."

I flipped to the page that he had scribbled his number on and it was the same one from my phone.

Why would Mikey give him my number? He doesn't even want me to look at Frank.
