The Boy In The Red Beanie

The Party #1

"Um where are Frank and Ray?" Kellin asked Ryan. "They're not here? I could have sworn I saw both of them earlier walking to the cafe." He replied, sitting down his books at the music table they both sat at. "They're always in here by now, and those two would never skip music class." Kellin explained. "Hm," Ryan said, "Yeah this is actually really weird."

The two scanned around the room seeing if they were with some other group before the two came in with Gerard and Tyler. "There they are!" Kellin exclaimed. The two boys walked over to the other 4. "Are these two what took you guys so long?" Ryan asked.

"Hey, be nice please. And all we did was find each other after lunch and came right here, we weren't that late compared to what we usually are." Frank chimed sassily. Kellin and Ryan realized how Frank was now suddenly friends with Gerard. Kellin's eyes went wide and his mouth parted. "Wait, you- did you tell him how you feel finally?" He questioned. Frank pushed him away and brushed off his jacket. "Yes, now shut up."

Kellin smiled widely before whispering something to Ryan, making him smile. "Okay," Ryan said, "You guys are welcome to join our table if you want. What do you guys play?" Gerard quickly responded. "Tyler and I both sing but he also plays the ukulele and piano. I'm not the best with instruments."

Ray patted Tyler's shoulder. "Bro, you can sing?" Tyler laughed nervously, "No, no, Gerard's just messing around, I can't sing. Gerard is the singer." Gerard looked over at Tyler and gave him a small smile. Ray pushed the smaller boy, "Fucking liar, you can can't you?" Tyler laughed, "Bro, I seriously cannot sing worth shit." Ray narrowed his eyes back to him. "Mmmhmm." He replied.

"Cut it out you two," Frank interjected, "You act like a damn married couple." Gerard let out a nasally laugh. "No we don't!" Ray softly yelled.

"Enough, children, enough. You're almost as bad as Brendon. Let's get started on working please." Ryan said, taking a seat. The rest of the group silently followed his lead.

"Ok so, Frank, did you figure out that chorus that you were working on a few days ago or whenever that was?" Kellin asked. "Yeah," Frank replied, pulling something out of his bag, "Wanna take a look?" Kellin nodded in response. Everyone scanned over what he had written down.

"I like this." Gerard said, breaking the silence. Frank smiled and blushed a little bit, causing Ray and Tyler to grin at each other. "Do you have any lyrics?" Gerard asked. Frank shook his head. "Well that's ok," Gerard said with a smirk, "Maybe we can work on it just the two of us sometime, I think we'd work really well together." He winked. He was clearly subtly trying to get Frank all bothered and embarrassed and it was working well. Everyone else was enjoying the fuck out of it and was just willing to let it happen.

Frank's POV:

Fuck. He's such a tease. Stupid bitch ass cunt, damn that was rude, sorry Gerard. Wait he didn't hear it, what am I? Fucking crazy? Yes I am. "You still with us, Frankie?" Ray asked with a wide grin. "Yes." I quickly replied. Wow that sounded really awkward.

I felt a hand grab a hold of my leg causing me to jump. "I'm just trying to put my hand here that's all, is that ok? Geez." Gerard laughed. I finally leaned towards him to whisper in his ear. "Well maybe if you'd stop being so suggestive all the sudden. After all those years and all this now." Gerard smired and brought his mouth up to my ear. "Ok, I'll settle down." I smiled contently now that I wouldn't have to worry about getting all uncomfortable. "For now." He added out loud.

God, he just knows how to push all my buttons already, that's great. The group snickered. "Let's get back to work. I wanna get this shit done so we don't have to rush." I said, trying to think of more things. And with that, we agreed to get to work. And Gerard did lay off as he promised. But the party was what I was worried about.
