*Gerard's POV*

I didn't leave Frankie's side for a week. I didn't want him to feel alone, hurt someone, or himself. I wanted to be there with him every minute. We stayed home from school all week and just held each other close letting out a few tears here and there. I felt so helpless seeing my Frankie in this condition and there was nothing I could do. I just wish I could make it all go away.

*Mikey's POV*

Ray and I wanted to stay home all week to comfort Frank because at a time like this, he really needs all the love he can get. But Gee insisted we go to school. Thinking back to the night Frank's mom died was so heart breaking. I didn't really know her, but I knew how much it hurt Frank. To make things worse, that was the night Ray and I made love and it was both our first times. I thought it was so special and it was, until we heard the news about Frank's mom. We never really look back on that day anymore. Nor do I think we ever will.

*Frank's POV*

I was glad Gerard chose to stay home with me all week. I felt bad because he would be so far behind in school but, he really helped with the healing process. I just wanted to know someone was there for me and he showed me that. The loss of my mom has really brought out somethings I've never heard Gerard say. He started talking about our future together and our dream house. And our dream jobs. Playing for stadiums sold out for kids in the thousands! It made me so happy! He told me he has all his trust and that he can tell me anything. It made me feel all warm inside. I told the same to him though I didn't have to because I know he would never keep anything from me. His parents have also be very supportive, and have even accepted me into their house for as long as I need. I could never thank them enough for how much they've done for me. I think of them as the family I never had. I love every second of it!

*Mikey's POV*

I now have to walk home from school because Ray decided to skip biology and now has a detention. Nice one. I don't mind to much though. My house isn't that far and it's good to be left to some of my own thoughts now. But I blur them out with music anyways. I put in my headphones and start blasting "Astro Zombies" by the Misfits. I swear I hear someone calling my name so I take out my earbud and sure enough a familiar voice yells out "MIKEY WAIT UP!" I turn around to see no other then Alicia running toward me. "Mikey! Hey how are you." she asks. "Uh, fine. How are you." I ask confused because I haven't talk to Alicia since the day we found out Jake liked Gerard. "I'm doing okay. I heard about Frank's mom. I feel so bad." she says. "Why do you feel bad? You didn't kill her." I respond. "No it's just, I feel bad for Frankie y'know, because both of his parents are gone now." she says. "Well, I'll have you know he's managing just fine. My parents have taken him in and my brother is making sure he's there with him every second." I say. "That's sweet of them and Gee." she said "How are you dealing with it?" "Just fine?? Frankie was staying at my house even before his mom died." I say. "oh, how are you and Ray doing?" she asks. "We're good. Why do you ask?" "O-oh, j-just wondering." she said eyes staring at the ground. "Ok then, I'm going to walk back home now." "Oh Mikey before you go..." she trails off. "Yeah what?" I ask. But I quickly regretted not saying anything and turning around because she pushed her lips up against mine. Worst part, I pushed back. I missed this so much. No matter how much I tried to hide it, I still loved Alicia. I miss everything about her. I didn't want to because she left me for that piece of shit Jake, but everything about her was perfect. And our lips together made the whole world disappear. Until I thought of Ray. A huge knot formed in my stomach. What am I doing? I'm cheating on Ray! I have to stop this. But it's no use. I'm lost in a trans that Alicia is putting on me. I didn't think this was going to end until I heard "What the hell? MIKEY?!" I turned my head to see a figure in the distance staring in shock. Oh. Shit.
