(franks pov)

it had been a week since my dad had sold me out to Kyle. After gerard watched me being raped twice he finally decided to tell me about mikey, and how he freaked and only wanted to protect mikey. I honestly didnt think that was a good enough reason to kick me out of their lives but gee has been trying to make it up I guess. I mean he never leaved me alone and today he invited me to his house after school. I'm not looking forward to this mainly because I've gotten used to being alone and I honestly prefer it that way, and I still haven't seen mikey since gee stopped talking to me.

"mikey has detention so he'll be home around 4" gee said. We were walking to his and it was pretty awkward. I just nodded to the thing about mikey. We were near the park where me and gee used to hang out all the time. I was actually going to ask him to stop but my phone started ringing. It was a blocked number but I answered anyway. "Hello?" "Holy shit frank I'm so sorry! I accidentally ruined my other phone when I was out the other night. I just wanted to call and make sure everything was ok." "Oh hey kenna, yea everything's fine I'm actually with gerard right now and he uhm doesn't know you or uhm about you yet so.." "Oh ok sorry. Ill text you tonight bye frank love you." "Love you too."

I looked over to see gee and his expression was pissed. "You have a boyfriend!! You said you had no one you fucking liar!"
"Gerard I don't have a boyfriend! That was uhm well you don't know her.."
"Her?"
"Yea it's uhm complicated."
"We'll are you gonna tell me who it is?!"
"uhm it was my sister McKenna...."
"You don't have a sister! Quit lying!"

I went to my photos and clicked on the only photo I have I me and McKenna when she was 13& I was 14. We look exactly alike so there was no doubting we weren't related. I held my phone up to gerard and he took it and then gasped "why the fuck didnt I ever meet her and why was she never with you?"
"She lived with my mom-"
"I thought you didn't know where your mom is?"
"We don't McKenna ran away when she was 13 & that photo is the only time I ever saw her, since our parents separated."
"And you never told me this because.."
"Because she want anyone to know she existed because if they did she could be taken away."

we arrived at the ways house and as soon I walked in I was surprised to see how much it had changed. "What do you wanna do?" I just looked up at gee and headed twords his room not saying a word. I say on his bed and just stared into space. I saw that he had a bunch of chips and pop in his room. I hadn't eaten in four days because there never food in my house and I had no money to buy food at school. "Want some? You've been staring at the chips since you came down here. I know your still mad at me but frank I want everything between us to go back to normal and that involved you eating everything in this house." He chuckled to himself. I jumped up at the chance at food.

Surprisingly it wasn't awkward at all when mikey came home we just watched movies all night and I ended up crashing at theirs for the night.

The next day at lunch I was sitting at my usual spot outside alone when gerard and mikey appeared with their lunches. "We were looking for you. Can we join?" I just nodded. "Did you already eat frank?" "Uh no-yea I already ate." Shit as much as I wanted food I don't want to tell mikey and gerard I didn't need any more of there pity.

"Wanna come over after school if your not busy?"
"What other plans would I have?" I said somewhat rudely.
"Sorry.. But does that mean yes?" Asked mikey
"why the fuck not better than being at home." After I said that gee and mikey exchanged worried looks.

when we were walking over to the ways my stomach made the most obnoxious ever. "Dude we just had lunch almost an hour ago."
"I know..I just might be like sick or something."
"oh ok.."
About two hours later mikey offered to go and get pizza and of course me and gee agreed.

"Ok Mikey's gone now whats going on?" Gee asked.
"What?"
"Why are being so distant, and why are you always so hungry? I mean honestly frank you look like you've lost a lot of weight, are you like starving yourself?"
"No! I'm fine I don't need you worrying about me."
"Frank I'm trying to be a good friend, and uhm I kinda wanted to ask how things were going at home.... Like with your dad."

I could tell by his voice he was honestly worried and scared for me. I finally let my walls come down and started crying. "Frank what's wring did I say something?" "Gee? He-he hasn't st-stopped bringing k-Kyle over." I said crying "kyles b-been there every night this w-week. It h-hurts so bad! I t-take the pain anymore! I just feel like I want to die!" Gee just sat there listening to everything I said. "I h-haven't eaten in two days.. I-I don't have any m-money a-a-and my d-dad d-doesn't buy any for me! G-gee I-I I can't do it anymore!!" I basically yelled as loud as I could while crying.

"I-I had no idea frank..I'm so sorry..you..you can't go home"
"I have too.." "What! Why!?" "If I don't it'll end bad..."
"Frank you don't know that!"
"I actually do it's the same thing that happened to McKenna why do you think she ran away, and doesn't want anyone to know she's alive or even existed."

"What if I go with you and spend the night at yours?"
"gee are you fucking crazy?!"
"Maybe, but I wasn't there for you all last year and I promised myself that from now on I would be."
