both boys laid on the ground, staring up. they admired the purple and red hues that streaked the dark, navy sky. the scenery was absolutely stunning. they had never seen anything more gorgeous in their life.

"last day of summer, huh?" frank mumbled, in awe at the sky (and gerard's beauty). he heard gerard sigh next to him. "i guess man.. i'm not really excited for summer to end, but there's not much you can do."

there was a brief moment of silence and then gerard continued, "it's weird seeing the seasons change yet feel like you're frozen, just watching everything pass you by. summer is the only time i feel alive, i feel most connected to everyone, especially during the night. seeing fall come isn't as bad, but when winter hits, i feel like i'm plummeting down into a hole of darkness and i can't get out till i see the sun shining again.. and sometimes, i just want it to be summer forever."

frank looked over to see gerard in tears. he didn't know that he truly felt that way. he wrapped his arms around him, rubbing his back.

"hey, it will be okay, we will get through winter together and i'll be your sunshine till then."
