Song: Cute Without The 'E' by Taking Back Sunday

Frank's POV

---------------------

Do I want Gerard to go? Fuck no. Do I want him to stay and possibly kill himself? Definitely not. This entire situation is just looking for the 'greater good'. We all know it's best if he does to the institution, but he won't be happy there. He's just so... so... Unpredictable. He tells you he's fine, next thing you know he points a loaded gun to his head; I wouldn't, however, call him a liar. BECAUSE.... It isn't his fault. I want you to know that his mental illness isn't his fault. He didn't ask to have it.

We waited until we got into the car to tell Ray and Mikey. Honestly, it couldn't have gone better. Mikey apologized for acting so insensitive earlier, and agreed that what we're doing is for the best. Ray was silent, but he teared up a bit. Nobody spoke the rest of the drive home.

When we got home, Gerard headed toward his bedroom. Before his foot even touched the inside of his room, he felt my hand touch his shoulder. He turned around to find me pointing to the bathroom. I didn't explain much, I just told him to sit on the toilet and that this might sting a bit. What I did, was take Hydrogen Peroxide and put it on a cotton swab. I rolled up his sleeves and cleansed the wounds. It obviously hurt a bit, because he made a sound that was like boiling water almost... A 'zzzzzzzzzzzz' sound. A buzzing noise. After he was all cleaned up, I found bandages and put them only of the fresh cuts and burns. I then rolled down his sleeves and kissed his forehead, he, smiling in return. "Thank you, Frankie." he said. His face lit up with a smile, "You're so very welcome, Gee." I replied "I would do anything for you, darling." I said, rubbing his cheek with my thumb

Gerard's POV

------------------

Well... I'm basically fucked. I've been to one of those institutes before and THEY ARENT PRETTY. It's basically like prison. Getting butt-raped, beaten, basically everything's the same except the workers and employees are trying to HELP you, not teach you a lesson. It's still pretty awful- and uh don't ask how I know what a prison is like.

My cousin Marcus won't stop calling me... I think Mikey told him what's going on... Oh god I hope not.

He tells everybody everything! Nothing is personal! I hate it... I can't get a new brother, though. I do love him, it's not that I don't love him. He's my little brother, y'know? You have weird bond with your sibling... Love/Hate relationship. I wouldn't say I've ever 'hated' him, though. Like maybe when I was like 14 I probably said I did, but I didn't mean it.
