Girl Talk

Frank's POV:

I ran around the school building looking for Mikey. So far I haven't had any luck finding him. I ran into Gerard once and asked him if he's seen Mikey. He said, 'No', then told me to use a condom.

I rolled my eyes and sped down the hall still in search for the lanky blonde.

I ran around the building once more before I was standing outside trying to catch my breath. Maybe he didn't want to see me today. Maybe Gerard told him what he thought was the truth. Maybe he doesn't want to be my friend anymore because he thinks I like him.

"You look tired, Frank." I heard a voice say.

"Oh my god, I'm so happy you're here. I need to talk to you."

"Gerard told me about how he thinks you like me."

"I'm so glad you brung that up 'cause that is exactly what I need to talk to you about."

"If you're asking me out, the answer's no."

"Ok first off, rude. Second, I'm kinda offended that you wouldn't even say yes. And third, thank god 'cause this would be a little awkward if you said yes."

"Why would it be awkward?"

"Becausw Gerard is full of incorrect information and cannot be trusted at this point."

"Why?"

"Because I'm not into you."

"Good 'cause this would be very awkward."

"I know."

"So then why were you nervous the other day?"

"Because I was being left with Gerard, alone."

"You've never had a pro- Oh! You like-"

"Shhhh!"

"You like Gerard?" He said quieter.

"I think I do. I mean, every time he smiles it's like a little piece of me is dying from how beautiful his smile is. And his voice, especially in the morning. I could get off on that."

"I don't need to know that."

"I could also wake up to that every morning and not have a problem with that. And his hair. The way it's always messy. Oh my god. And his eyes. His eyes are so beautiful." I gushed.

"Sounds like you got it bad."

"I do."

"Yeah."

"Do you know if he likes anybody?"

"No, but don't tell him I told you this, but I do know he's gay."

"I kinda figured."

"Ok?"

"He doesn't show any signs, though."

"He knows how to keep a lot of things to himself, except me. I can read him like a book."

"So then how do you know if he like anybody or not?"

"He doesn't show any signs of liking anybody like that."

"What if I asked him?"

"It'd be better if I did."

"Why?"

"Less obvious?"

"Maybe."

"Yeah."

"Will you ask him when you guys get home?"

"Not directly after, but I will. I'll tell you if he lets me."

"Thank you."

"No problem. How long have you liked him?"

"Since I met him."

"Liked who since you met him?"

I looked up to see Gerard standing over us.

"Mikey said he liked this kid Ray Toro."

I looked at Mikey to see him blushing violently.

"You never told me." Gerard frowned.

"I was gonna tell you once I could find you but I saw Frank first."

"Why didn't you tell me at home?"

"I was in such a rush this morning I forgot to."

"Oh yeah, you woke up late. I forgot."

He bought it.

"What about you, Frankie, since we're talking about crushes?"

"Nope. Not anyone."

"I thought you liked Mikey?"

"No, the way I was acting the other wasn't that. I was just, thinking and I got startled a little."

"Mhm." He said still looking at me.

"What about you Gerard?" Mikey asked.

"Yeah."

"Who?" I asked.

"I'm not saying." He said shaking his head.

"C'mon."

"Nope."

"Why?"

"'Cause you both know him."

"I wonder who it is." Mikey said while squinting at Gerard.

"Well I like someone too!"

"Who?"

"Not saying."
