Helpless Feeling (Frerard)

Chapter 6

"Hey Gee." I looked up and saw Pete standing next to the couch with Patrick by his side.

"Hey guys," I replied. Pete had the biggest smile on his face. He always did when Patrick was next to him.

"We have some news," Patrick spoke up. I sat up and gave them all my attention. Pete was biting his lip excitedly as Patrick pressed his face into Pete's shoulder, trying to hide a giggle.

"What is it," I questioned as I looked between the two. They shared a look and face me again.

"We're getting married," Pete beamed with a smile. Patrick let out more giggles. My eyes widened in surprise.

"Are you serious?" Their heads nodded in excitement. "W-wh.. how? I mean... What?"

"Well I was talking to Lyn-Z about how much I loved Patrick and she asked if I was planning on marrying him. Obviously I said yes." I nodded as Patrick bit his lip to try and contain his joy. "I told her I would marry Patrick now if I could. Then she told me I could." I tilted my head in confusion.

"I was confused too until she told me there's apparently like a rule or something that allows me to be discharged for a short period of time for any legal situation." I let out a small gasp when the realization hit me. Pete chuckled as he looked down at Patrick.

"All we need to do is make an appointment at the courthouse. I should be able to get about three days out of here for preparation and stuff." Patrick leaned up and kissed Pete's cheek. I got up and pulled the couple into a tight hug.

"I'm so happy for you two."

"We wanted to invite you to the wedding. Actually, I was thinking maybe you could be my best man." I pulled back, mouth open wide.

"Are you serious?" Pete nodded. "Pete, I'd be honored." We shared another hug.

"Wait, I wouldn't be able to leave though." Pete shook his head.

"I already talked with Lyn-Z about it. She said she'll take care of it, but we're probably gonna have to invite a few nurses."

"Who else are you inviting?"

"Family, you, Brendon. I think Brendon's gonna bring Ryan. You can invite Frank if you want. Then the few nurses. Not a huge wedding."

"But it'll be perfect," Patrick added.

"It'll be perfect as long as you're there." I rolled my eyes. Pete became the cheesiest person when it came to Patrick.

"So, do you have any plans for the wedding or are you going to do that later?"

"Patrick's gonna come more often and we'll start planning everything. He wants a summer wedding so hopefully we can plan everything out and in a few months this gorgeous human will be Mr. Patrick Wentz."

Pete kissed Patrick's lips, both radiating joy. They got lost in the feeling of each other while I sat awkwardly trying not to watch them. I cleared my throat to get their attention. Patrick pulled away with a blush. Pete pulled him against his chest with the wide smile still on his face.

"Sorry," he mumbled unapologetically.

"Aright," I gave them a small shove. "Get out of here before I throw up from all your cuteness." Patrick stuck his tongue out at me before Pete led him out of the room. I laid on the couch and let out a long sigh. I let my mind start wandering.

I smiled at the thought of Brendon meeting Ryan's sister. If Ryan continues what he's going, Brendon could start to feel like he was in a real family again and not in one that was stuck in a mental hospital.
