Sorry all! I was in a psych ward for nine days. That sorta sucked ass but yeah. I'm going through the same thing as Gerard in my fic and also an ED. Anyway sorry for the long wait.

Frank's POV

I was going to be roomed with Gerard Way?! The very dude had run out of his therapy session clutching his head like a mad man? The very man who had let me sit with him at breakfast and tell my I'm not fat and all? I sighed as I left Jaime's office.

"So, Frank, who's your roommate? Do you have one?" Austin walked with me to the lounge and sat on a couch.

"Uh, yeah it's Gerard." Austin looked at me with what could only be pity. "Aw dude, that sucks. He's got a troubled thoughts and a self esteem to match. He's never had a roommate he's not social. He never talks, Patrick and I tried to talk to him on day. He didn't like that."

I was confused, "Really? He was nice to me." Austin raised his eyebrows and widened his eyes, "Really? Wow, he never does that. He probably has a crush on you or something." He winked at me and got up to grab a book, leaving me alone with his words and my thoughts.

'Could Gee actually have a crush on a fat someone like me?' I felt me spine tingle as I thought of Gerard liking me even a little.

It was after three and I still had no idea where Gee was, when I asked Austin he was vague about at Gerard because he had apparently been rude to him. But he told me he's keep an eye out for me.

We had snack at three so Austin, Patrick, and two other guys went with us to the cafeteria. One looked like an emo who would fight you, his name was, Pete. He wore eyeliner, and his black hair covered up part is his face. He was wearing black skinny jeans and a hoodie that said Green Day.

The other was named, Alan, he was shorter than Alan but still rather tall, at least to me. He was also wearing skinny jeans but they weren't black like mine, Petes, and Austins. He had ginger hair and brown green eyes. I watched Austin slip his hand into Alans' hand. Alan didn't flinch but clasped his fingers around the other mans hand, smirking as they got disappointed faces from their peers.

We all sat together and I noticed how Patrick would listen to every word Pete said as if his life depended on what he said. 'Aw that's Patrick's crush? That's adorable.' Pete, who looked like he would fight and/or kill you, turned out to be a cinnamon roll. He was kind and spoke encouraging things at some points but was really funny and like a low key class clown.

"So, Frank, who's your roommate? You just got here yesterday so you probably spent the night in the cell thingy. But today you've got a roommate am I right?" Pete was stringing he yogurt filled with fruit and I did the same as I told him it was Gerard.

"Whoa, hold it uh, you're rooming with Gerard? Like Gerard who doesn't talk and shit?" Alan looked at me with disbelief. I nodded my head and shrugged my shoulders, "He doesn't seem that bad. I mean I only spent breakfast with him so who knows?"

"You had breakfast with him and he dint flip shit over? You must me hella special." Said Patrick thinking back, "Austin and I tried to talk to him but he got really upset, I almost thought I'd be the cause of him talking again cuz I annoyed him so much." He laughed and turned back to his chips he was sharing with Pete.

"I think he's nice, why is he here?" They shrugged but I caught Pete and Austin exchange looks. "You don't know? How long has he been here, two years? How long have guys been here?"

Pete thought for a second, "I've been here two months, same as Patrick, we tried to commit suicide together, Austin's been here what? Three weeks?" Austin nodded, "Yeah, about. I had a gun to my head but my boyfriend walked in and just shrugged so I attacked him, I don't shoot I just beat the shit out of him." I was shocked, Austin was the nicest person here besides Patrick, I couldn't imagine any of them trying to kill themselves, then again I just met the today. Alan stayed quiet, he finally cleared his throat, "Uh, I'm here for uh PTSD... my um 'best friend' r-r-raped me."

He started to shake and Austin immediately grabbed him and caught him in a hug. Alan relaxed slightly and slowly stopped shaking. "Thanks." He whispered and continued to eat his snack.

All of a sudden Oli barged in the cafeteria looking anguished and distressed. His eyes scanned the room before he found the head nurse. He walked briskly towards her.

The head nurse confusedly walked to meet him and Oli whispered something in her ear and the head nurse, Lindsey I think was her name, filled him hurriedly out the door and told three other nurses to follow.

"What do you think happened?" Everyone shrugged and continued to eat. Weren't they curious of what was going on? Four nurses and the head nurse? They obviously were used to it, I wasn't so I got up and went to make for the door, a nurse stopped me.

"Sorry, you can't leave the cafeteria until snack is over." His tag read Mike F. "What's going on?" He shrugged, "I dunno, I wasn't told." I sighed, exasperated I went back to our table. "That didn't work out did it?"
"Shut up, Pete." He laughed and earned a small slap from Patrick.
"Don't laugh Pete, he's just as curious as you were the first three of four weeks." Pete made an indecisive noise and got up to put away our trays which were now empty.

Finally the bell rang and Tony yelled that we were to return to our rooms. I got up, but I had no intention of going to my room.

I slipped through the crowd of patients to the other side of the room where the nurses had gone and, undetected, left through that door.
