Wake Me Up Inside, Bring Me Back to Life. (Frerard Fanfiction)

Chapter 7~

Frank’s P.O.V~

The 3rd period bell began to ring. I looked up at Gerard and smiled “I guess that’s our cue to go back to class. “I said, slowly grabbing my bag from the ground. Mikey and Ray smiled “Nice to meet you Frank, come back ANYTIME!” Mikey said hugging me and running over to Ray’s side. Ray rolled his eyes and wave to me and Gerard, then pulling Mikey away. I laughed and said to Gerard “They’re quite an inseparable pair aren’t they.” Gerard nodded his head “Yeah, they are; Mikey, he still lives in a world of magic and unicorns and Ray …Ray loves Mikey like a brother…or whatever, I don’t quite know anymore with them. They get closer everyday haha” He said, trying to get his long black hair out of his eyes, revealing his beautiful eyes again.

 Gerard walked me to class, we talked about his drawings and how he wants to make me on paper. I don’t understand it, this guy is so beautiful, smart, talented and simply amazing…But why is he’s talking to me? That doesn’t seem right; I’m a guy with emotional problems, the guy who is a freaky homophobic schizoid! I mean he has to know about my mental illness right? With all the crap going around about me, how couldn’t he.

When we got to my class, he turned to me “So hey, Frank, we are friends right? I-I mean I want to be your friend! I mean it would be amazing to have you as an f-fri…” I cut him off of his noticeably nervous rant and said “Gerard, yes we are friends, and hey thanks for putting up for me. “ I put a hand on him slowly and smiled “Oh by the way, thanks for introducing me to your friend and brother, Mikey and Ray; they’re very cool and adorable…especially Mikey!” I pulled him in a hug and held him tight for a while before letting go and going to class.

I think I’m developing a crush on Gerard, well that’s obvious…but I feel something. I fell something powerful when I’m with him, he makes me smile and laughed, and I feel like he actually cares about me.

I walk out of my 4th block class smiling. Today has been a great day; I never thought I could be so happy before. That’s when I heard a voice that put rainy clouds on my sunshine, “HEY YOU IERO! I’M NOT DONE WITH YOU YET!!!” I turned around to Malik running towards me fast. “OH SHIT!!!” I said pushing people down and running down the hall as fast as I can. The benefit of being so short is that I can run like a track star.

I turned around to see Malik catching up to me.  I picked up speed, trying to get to the schools front door. “YES home free!” I said out loud, that’s when I realized…I don’t have a ride home. Despite that, I kept on running, hoping that the football play would get tired…OH who am I kidding, he plays football, I’m dead.

“THAT’S RIGHT IERO!!! RUN!!!” He said, not visable behind the crowd of people. I pushed through the doors of the school and pushed down people that are when I bumped hard into someone and hit the cold concrete. “OW!” a screamed rubbing my head slowly. “Frank? Why are you running?” I heard yet ANOTHER familiar voice says…I opened my eyes and saw Gerard standing above me yet again. I got up quickly and grabbed his arm “WE NEED TO GO NOW! MALIK IS COMING!!!” Gerard’s eyes grew huge as he peeked over the crowd and saw Malik breaking through, searching for me “IERO! I SEE YOU! WITH the OTHER LITTLE PUNK!!!” he said running towards us. Gerard pulled my arm again and said “Come on, we will go to my car!” He started running, with me right behind him, when we got to the student parking lot; Gerard pulled out his car keys and pressed the button. I looked for his car as it made the ‘Beep Beep’ noise to indicate that it was unlocked. “Over here!” he said running towards this 2010 ford truck, I followed him and made it to the car, opening the passenger door and locking it once I got in. Gerard got to the driver side and pushed me on the floor, “Get down for he won’t see us.” He said. I peeked up and saw Malik searching the lot for us. “DAMMIT!!!” I heard him say as he went back to the front of the school. I sat up and looked at Gerard, us both panting hard “Thanks Gee!” I said smiling. He flashed a smile back and said “No problem!”

 I began to open the car door and get out “I better get walking, if I want to get home safe” I said. Gerard looked at me and said “What you don’t have a ride? You don’t ride the bus?” I shook my head “I ride the bus but Malik rides my bus so I’m trying to avoid that idea…and my mom is uh at work, so yeah walking time!” He grabbed my shoulder and whispered “I’ll give you a ride, I mean I can’t let you walk home by yourself…your too little and I have nothing better to do.” I looked at him and said “But what about your brother? Doesn’t he uh…Need a ride? I mean, doesn’t he live with you?”  He slowly shook his head “Parental issues…” I looked at him and said “OH…well okay I’ll take that ride, and maybe you can stay a little. My mom won’t be home till 11 so yeah.” I closed the door as he started the car “Okay” he said smiling and driving off.
