Chapter 16

Looking at his phone in shock Gerard stood frozen in his front door.

'From Frank: sorry bud, can't come to school today. Got sick over the weekend. Should be back by Wednesday. Hopefully Mikey is there with you."

Sadly, Mikey was not there with him as he had also gotten sick. And Ray and Bob had called him over the weekend telling him that their families had gotten together and surprised them with a four day vacation yesterday. And also wouldn't be back till Wednesday. 

All in all, Gerard did not want to go to school today. How did they even manage to do this. 

Sighing, he got into the car and drove to school, parking in the usual spot. He got out of the car, grabbed his backpack and walked into the school. 

_______________Le Magical Time Skip________________________

Gerard sighed as he walked to his locker after English, It was time for lunch, and once again he wasreminded he was the only one at school. He gabbed his art box and world history book and put them in his backpack, He closed his locker and turned around only to stare straight into the face of Dustin. 

"You're all alone today." Dustin smirked. 

Gerard felt himself pale. He was hoping today would go differently. But apparently not. Seeing the punch coming seconds before it happened he ducked down and ran down the hall. He heard Dustin cursing as he rubbed his hand from punching the locker. Gerard made his way to the cafeteria hoping to lose Dustin in the crowd of people. The gods above must have been on his side today because Dustin did not find him again.

For the rest of the day he was constantly looking behind him to see if Dustin had found him again. The end-of-day bell was a godsend. He could go home and not worry about anything for a few hours. He raced out of the school and to the car and only let out a sigh of relief when the car doors were locked. He started the car and pulled out of the parking lot and made his way home.

When he walked into the front door he heard the sound of the TV playing. Walking into the living room he saw Mikey watching Doctor Who. 

"Really again?" Gerard asked.

"What else did you expect me to do when I'm home sick?" Mikey said, pausing the episode.

"How many episodes did you watch?" Gerard asked, digging through his backpack.

"Oh you know. Like eight." Mikey said.

"Well you're done now." Gerard said, pulling out a folder. "Here's your makeup work. How's your fever today?"

"It was only 100.6 when I took it like three hours ago." Mikey said, taking the folder.

"If its below one-hundred tomorrow morning you're going to school." Gerard said, big brother mode activating. 

"Yes mom." Mikey said, smirking. 

Mikey sat up and pulled the coffee table closer to use it as a desk, getting started on his homework. Gerard stared at him for a moment before doing the same thing.
