My hand in his, the small boy in the adorable Smashing Pumpkins Sweatshirt leads me into the Pride House. God... I thought New Jersey would be shit, but Frank gave me so much hope. He had a lot hope in him, I could tell by the way he looked at me. I nervously walked in behind him. He must have noticed because he have my hand a comforting squeeze.
"I think my friend and his boyfriend are here, Ill introduce you!"
"A-ah... Okay..."
I followed the short boy over to this table. One guy with a big forehead waved at him. Oh, he was with another guy with a baby face. Their legs were intertwined under the table. Frank pulled me over to them.
"Hey Frank! Fresh meat?"
The one with the big forehead smiled at me and the baby face giggled at his seems to be boyfriends comment. I just smile awkwardly.
"Yup! Guys this is Gerard, a new to Jersey closeted gay. Gerard this is Brendon and Ryan."
"Nice to meet you two..."
I looked down at my feet and shuffled around a bit. Frank squeezed my hand again and elbows me in the side gently.
"I'm gonna show him around, I'll see you two later I guess?"
"Yea! Bye! See you later Gerard!"
I give them a faint smile and wave while Frank drags me off, he seems to be excited about where he's taking me. Woah. For a small guy he has big hands. I guess he caught me staring because he giggled and stopped.
"Why do you keep staring? Do I have something on my face?"
He turned to look at me. I got lost in his features so quickly. He grabs my hands and shakes them. I quickly bounce back from his perfect lips, eyes, and hair, to reality.
"Umm? Huh?"
What'd he say? He grins.
ROUND ONE
FIGHT!
"Why do you keep staring?"
"I-I'm not..."
"Lier."
"I just... like your lip ring?"
"Oh... Thanks! So you like my lips?"
Critical hit!
"I-I guess?"
Gerard is confused!
"Any thing else?"
"Y-you kinda have pretty eyes?"
"Kinda?"
"You have very pretty eyes..."
Gerard is at critical health!
"Well I like your eyes too."
"Oh yea?"
Gerard heals 20 hp!
"And I guess your lips are cool..."
"Cool?"
I raise an eye brow
"I mean I'll have to try them on for a bit..."
Gerard faints
Frank wins!
"H-huh?!"
Frank giggles and starts leading me down some hallway.
"Wait Frank!"
Frank ignores me, but I can see the smile growing in his face.
