My Christian Romance

4. A Fag

I giggle and run over to my desk like an excited little girl. Franks face looks absolutely gorgeous in that photo. I take out the picture and my sketch book and start drawing. His eyes are so... perfect? Ive never seen eyes like that before. His face is definitely fun to draw. Time passes by so quick that an hour passes while I'm working on catching every last detail. My brother, Mikey, just came home. He was with a friend he met at church. He barges into my room as he usually does when he comes home. It gets annoying but I love him to bits.

"Gerard!!! How was Bible Study?"

"Hey Mikes, It was good I made a friend."

"So did I! His names Ray hes super cool."

"Ray? Fun."

"Yea, he told me to stay away from this 14 year old named Frank, thought I would warn you to Gee."

Frank? Whats so bad about him? I close my sketch book just in case Mikey knows what Frank looks like. Time to do some digging.

"Whats so bad about this Frank guy?"

"Ray said hes..."

Mikey leaned close and whispered to me,

"A fag..."

WHAT THE FUCK MIKEY. Okay I knew he was homophobic but oh my god. OH MY GOD. This pissed me off to bits.

"Mikey you can't fucking say that!"

"What? Why?"

"Its a slur! Its offensive..."

"Since why do you care?"

"Because Mikes... God don't make me get mad at you... People are people no matter who they like you can't just treat them like some contagious disease because of who they love!"

"What ever... God get a grip Gerard..."

And with that he stormed out. I hated getting in fights with Mikey. We've been so close to.. I thought we were over fights. I can feel the tears building up so I grab my shoes and coat and head for the park to clear my head.

Once I stepped out of the house tears start flooding my eyes. I grabbed my phone from my pocket while walking to the park and texted Frank.

GeeBear😪: Frankie come to the park plz i got in a fight with my brother

Frnkie🌈: omw, you ok?

I got to the park and sat under a tree. I couldn't hold it my tears. I just started bawling my eyes out. After a few minutes of me crying I slowly started to breathe normally and to stop crying as much. I looked up when I heard footsteps and saw a concerned Frank running towards me.

"Oh my god.! Gee!"

He sat next to me and hugged me. He hugged me so tight, like it was the end of the world or something. I let out a few more sobs into his shoulder.

"Its okay Gee... I'm here. Please talk to me..."

"Frankie..."

Frank still held me with all his heart, tracing comforting shapes on my back. He cared so much and we just met.

"My brother is homophobic... I know that and I still love him but... Today he said the f a g word and really offensively and it hurt Frankie... I got mad at him and..."

I couldn't finish because my emotions had other plans. I just started crying into Franks shoulder. He kept holding me and whispering comforting things into my ear until I managed to calm down.

"Gee... Lets go to my house, we can watch movies and cuddle, my parents won't be home until late."

"Okay... Thanks a lot Frank..."

And with that, hand in hand, we went to Franks. His house was beautiful, two stories and huge. Mine was two stories too but smaller. When we walked inside. It was hell. EXTREMELY clean and jesus pictures EVERYWHERE.

"Oh my god..."

"Don't say the lords name in vein!!"

Frank giggles and sat me down on the couch with a family size bag of Doritos and Mountain Dew. He went to get blankets and had me turn on whatever movie I want. I picked Ghost Busters. Frank walks over and lays the covers out on top of us. He turns off the light and we start the movie. A few minutes in I lean over and whisper to him.

"You promised cuddles?"

"I thought I was a fetus?"

"Shut up..."

And with that Frank giggles and wraps an arm around me as I rest my head in the crook of his neck. I curl up and about an hour into the movie I end up dazing off.
