"Mikey. Open up. Let me in." Gerard knocked on the door to Mikey's apartment and huffed a little. He folded his arms and stared at the door, avoiding the keyhole where Mikey might look through to see who was on the other side. He winced a little and pulled out his phone.

Gerard knocked again, harder this time. He could look under the small doormat to find the key which was hidden within a small flap of the doormat or he could continue waiting for his little brother to actually come outside and unlock the door to let him in.

He brushed aside some red strands of hair and groaned softly as he looked at the door. Bob was meant to have come here too but he had gotten a call from his girlfriend asking for him to come home to 'kill a spider' which in other words meant that they were going to fuck.

Gerard bit his lip and his eyes observed the door. Was Mikey even in? Gerard had parked next to Mikey's car in the apartment complex's parking lot so he probably was. Hopefully was. He was meant to be here anyways. Mikey never left the house unless someone had managed to coax him out and it was unlikely that Mikey had gone on a walk too.

The red haired male took a step forward again and raised his hand to knock on the door when he heard it unlock and slowly open in front of him, revealing a tired and worn out looking Mikey Way.

"Hey Mikes, you look like crap." Gerard muttered as he walked past Mikey into his little brother's flat. He heard Mikey trudging along behind him, dragging his feet. He had noticed the red eyes, messy hair and overall unhappy vibe his little brother was giving off.

"Hnngh, hey, Gee." The younger Way mumbled and sat on an armchair, curling up. He gestured for Gerard to do the same. He was wearing glasses for the first time in months and his blonde hair was washed out and he looked utterly shattered. He looked so fragile too.

Gerard tossed his coat on the side of the couch and gently sat down and gestured to Mikey, "Want to explain how this happened or..?" He saw Mikey wince and exhale slowly.

"I don't know, Gee. I feel shitty as hell because of what's happened with Ray and I don't know. I guess I was an ass but I don't know if I still want to be his friend let alone think about anything else. Was he being serious in the group chat or was he just fucking around?" Mikey's voice was broken and soft, he tilted his head curiously at Gerard.

"Because if he does love me, he needs to apologize to me. Because he fucked up and before you start talking shit, I know. I know I fucked up big time too. I messed up and did some bad crap to him back and I blocked him out even though he was apologizing but he deserved it." Mikey muttered aggressively, his tone changing to defensive and upset. He was denying something and though it wasn't obvious to himself, it was as clear as daylight to Gerard.

"Ray was probably being serious. We don't know. He hasn't picked up any of our calls or responded to any text messages at all. He's gone offline and isn't talking to anyone at all." Gerard sighed, running a hand through his hair quickly. He can hear raindrops begin to hit the window of the flat.

"Oh. That's...That's not good. I hope he's...I hope he's okay." Mikey drifted with his tone of voice, not fully with it all of a sudden. He stared at the floorboards but it was clear his mind was on something else by this point.

A silence fell between the pair and they both soon were lost in their own thoughts.

'I should talk to Ray,'

'I wish I could message Frank'

'I feel bad for hurting his feelings'

'I wonder where Frank lives, I want to see him'

'Maybe I should go see his flat'

'I want to skype him again'

"Hey I'm just gonna go do something-" The two brothers looked up at each other and both smile at the same moment. Gerard stands up quickly, smiling at his little brother.

Great minds think alike but fools rarely differ.

"I'll message you later, Mikes." Gerard didn't turn to look at his younger brother and grabbed his coat that he'd dropped on the couch and headed straight for the door.

"See ya, Gee."

"See ya, Mikes."

Gerard smiled as he closed the door as he walked away and opened up his phone and then kik.
