______________

Frank had made up his mind. He needed to tell him. He saw him again today and to admit the boy looked kinda sad. Frank picked up the rose sitting on his desk. His hands shook slightly as he held the rose up to the mirror, he made eye contact with him self.

I-i.." he swallowed the lump in his throat. Gosh this is literally him looking at himself why is it so damn hard.

Come on frank get it together" he muttered under his breath.

He picked up the rose again and held it up.

I just wanted to say that I find you very pretty and wanted to give you this rose cuz it matches your hair and I like roses like I like you-but you don't have to like me back I mean it would be nice-" frank ranted not even looking at the mirror anymore. His mind just going in circles.

He sighed and put the rose down. He paced back and forth trying to come up with something good that didn't make him seem like a creep or a totally loser.

Frankie dinna!" His mom called from down stairs. He sighed once more and walked down the stairs still thinking on how to impress the boy down the street.

His mom was on the phone yacking away with her sister about something frank couldn't really understand Italian that much, some words here and there clicked though.

Crush,overthinking and handsome were the ones he caught.

When she noticed frank however she quickly hung up. She smiled nervously and went to go serve frank some lasagna. He raised his eyebrow in confusion but didn't really bother to even think of why she acted like this all of a sudden

Here ya go" she smiled and sat down next to him smiling sweetly

Thanks ma" frank said quietly. He dug his fork in but he really didn't have an appetite, his stomach felt queasy.

Why the long face bambino?" She said noticing her sons somber behavior.

You's not hungry darl'in?" His mom added and gently lifted franks head so he could look at her instead of his lasagna that was starting to get a little cold

It's just that-well...my fourteen year old feelings are everywhere ma, I can't focus on anything except..." frank sighed and put his hands over his face

Except? You's gota crush huh? Tell mama what is the matter" she said removing franks hands and holding them in hers

Well...ma it's this boy-"

Boy?" Franks mom said raising an eyebrow at frank

Y-yeah...why" frank said gulping. Would his mother disown him? Does she think he's gross?!

Oh nothing darling, I always thought you's was how you say...straight? But it's okay that explains why you's never had girlfriends" she giggled

Well yeah but mom it's the boy down the street ma. He's so pretty he has red hair and I've been trying to talk to him but my brain goes all pffft and my body goes wonky" frank sighed

Is that way you wanted me to buy you that rose?" She smirked

Yeah but it's no use anymore I can't bring myself to give it to him"

Frankie you are the most handsome boy. You look so much like your grandfather and if he was here he would be so proud. Go after him baby don't let him get away" she said proudly.

Frank smiled and hugged his mom tightly. He was really happy his mom believed in him. He was gonna do it.

I'll do it! Thanks ma!" Frank smiled and kissed his mom's cheek running up to his room picking up the rose and running out his front door.

He ran till he got to the boys drive way. He didn't see their car but he was gonna knock anyways. Frank took a deep breath and knocked on the door. He heard footsteps coming to the door

A women opened the door. Frank cleared his throat and asked if a boy named Gerard was there. The lady seemed confused for a little then it's like something clicked in her head. She gave him a sad smile

Oh honey I think you where looking for the previous owners, they just moved.

Frank's heart dropped so hard he was pretty sure he felt it drop to his stomach. He tried to hold back the tears. He thanked the lady and walked away. His heart must of really dropped to his stomach cuz he felt nauseous. He dragged his feet back home. Slightly sniffing, wiping away the tears with his sleeve.

He got home and shut the door slowly. His mom ran to the living room with a big smile on her face that faded when she saw her sons sad face. She opened her arms and frank ran to her.

What happened bambino?" She cooed running her hand up and down frank back trying to calm his crying

He moved ma, I'm never gonna see him again" frank hiccuped against his mom's chest hugging her tightly

And so the years went by and the rose frank had placed on his windowsill wilted away slowly.
