Gerard's P.O.V
Oh shit. Balancing eight plates on top of eachother wasn't exactly the easiest job ever. I stumbled into the kitchen, placing the empty dishes onto the nearest counter. Only 1 hour left of work.... few. As I pushed open the doors, my phone started vibrating in my pocket. No one ever called me... who was it? I pulled my phone out of my pocket and looked at the caller ID. Frank? Why was Frank calling me, how? Oh yeah... I'd gave him my number yesterday. Without hesitation, I pulled the phone to my ear and murmured a small hello.
"G-G-Gerard? Gerard?" Frank whispered.
"What is it frank? Are you okay?" I replied, starting to worry at his tone of voice.
"Erm yeah.. actually, no, not really. Can I.... is it possible for me to see you...like...like now?"
"Sure! Well I'm working but if it's that urgent, you can come down to the restaurant and we can talk."
"Yeah..O-okay" he replied, hanging up the phone.
What was that about? I'll soon find out though. Poor Frank.. I hope nothing happened...
I was setting the cutlery down on table ~12~ , when I heard a small cough coming from behind me.
"Frank" I said, with a happy (yet sympathetic) smile spread on my face.
"Yeah..er..hi...Gerard" Frank stuttered. I hadn't known Frank for long... literally only a day, but the second I saw him, I was immediately interested in this strangely beautiful creature and wanted to know him, I wanted to be a part of his life and I wanted to help him in anyway possible. Frank, he had planted a seed in my head, a seed that couldn't be removed or replaced, a seed of curiosity for Frank that would just keep on growing and growing.
"So.. what did you want?" I said eventually.
"Oh, well" Frank murmured, taking a seat at the table I had just laid, nodding his head towards the seat opposite him, "I...well..something happened and i... and I just wanted to talk to someone... to you.. I..I wanted to talk to you"
I took my seat and ran a hand through my hair.
"Yeah, yeah... so what was it, that you wanted to talk about"
Frank had his head in his hands and let out yet another sigh. God.. what had happened. I was ready for bad news.
"I...well..my..my..oh god, I found my girlfriend, she was... she.. she cheated on me, Gerard"
"Woah! Wait, so your actually straight?!?!" I exclaimed
"Yes Gerard! Wow thanks, your really helping me out here, thanks!"
This made me chuckle... poor Frank
"oh god Frank I really am sorry... wow"
Frank sighed again, wiping his right eye.
"I really though she was the one.. ya know" Frank placed his head back in his hands.
after a few minutes of silence, I placed two fingers under his chin, "look alive sunshine, you'll get through this, we'll get through this okay? Things will get better, I promise"
Frank just stared at me and then smiled a small smile, "Thanks Gerard, thanks" he said, the smile turning into a grin, and standing up to hug me.
An unexpected smirk spread across my face, "C'mon, I'm finished here, I've got somewhere I wanna show you" ,after accepting the hug, I took hold of his arm and pulled him out of the restaurant.
