A Night Worth Remembering

Franks P.O.V
I made a list. I make lists all the fucking time... they usually help me calm down, but this time all they ended up doing is making me curl up in a ball and cry all day. “Why does this always have to happen to me!” I yelled into my empty room, then I heard a giggle, or at least I thought it was empty. I turn around to see Gerard fucking Way standing in my doorway.

“Sorry, your mom let me in. Do you want me to go?” I said nothing. I was staring at him with eyeliner streaked all over my face and when the hell did my mom get here? He turned to leave... “No! Wait!” I yelled trying to wipe my face clean. “Stay, I need to talk to someone.”

“Okay.” He moved towards the bed and stared at it like he was trying to find a place to sit.

“Here,’ I picked up all my lists and half crumpled them and threw them on the floor, ‘What brings you here?”

“Well you were pretty torn up a couple of hours ago, so I decided that I would give you some time and come back later to see if you were okay.”

I resisted the urge to ‘aww’. “Ohh, thats very kind of you” I said as I was still trying to get the stupid lists off of my bed.

He picked one up, “what are these?” he said opening up starting to read it.

“No!’ I tore it out of his hands, ‘just lists of you know... stuff. Things I like, things I hate, things I want.” I was being general, because i knew what was written on this list. This was list number 32 and it has three things written on it over and over again.

Things That I, Frank Iero Want:
1. Gerard
2. Damien
3. To not want Damien anymore.

I looked down at my sheets, because hey! my sheets just became very interesting.

Gerard took this as an opportunity to take list number 32 from my hands and read it before I even had a chance to explain myself he said, “Frankie, is this true?” I nodded. “Why didn’t you say anything?” I shrugged. “Oh Frankie” just as I was about to explain myself to him, he tilted my head up by my chin and kissed me. After a couple of seconds he moved to straddle me, without breaking the kiss. It wasn’t until I moaned that he stopped kissing me and jumped off the bed as if it had burned him. “I-I” he stuttered.

I frowned, “I know. It was a mistake. You shouldn’t have done it. You’re going to leave now.” I said to my sheets.

“Actually,’ he said, ‘I was going to say that I shouldn’t have taken advantage of you at a time like this. Do you really think I would say something like that?’”

“Well yeah since that has been my experience with every other popular guy that has made the ‘mistake’ of kissing me.”

“Oh Frankie” he sighed as he moved to lay down next to me. I cuddled into him and for a while he said nothing, I was begging to fall asleep when I heard him whisper, “Perché Egli ha detto: Io non ti lascerò e non ti abbandonerò.”

“What does that mean?” I whispered back.

“It means, ‘I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.’”

“That’s beautiful.”

“Thanks’ he was about to say something else before his phone rang, ‘Hello?... Okay. I have to go, but I’ll see you tomorrow right?”

“Yeah.”

“Okay. Don’t disappear like last time.” He kissed me and walked out of the room before I could say okay. I laid down for a while longer before my mother came and knocked softly on my door.

“I know that one of your visitors left a while ago and I know that you aren’t feeling too well emotionally right now, but you have someone down stairs that wants to talk to you, can I send him up?”

“Who is it?” I asked, already knowing the answer, but wanting to hear it from her.

“It’s Damien.”

I stayed quiet for a minute, “sure send him up and mom?”

“Yeah?”

“Thanks for being so understanding.”

“You’re welcome. I trust that you’ll tell me when you’re ready.”

As soon as she left the room I heard the all to familiar thump of Damiens boots on my stairs, then there was a knock on my door. “Can I come in Frank?” Good he didn’t call me Frankie.

“Sure” I said sitting up on my bed. He too a seat by my desk. He’s testing his boundaries.

“You’ve been making lists?” he asked gesturing towards all the crumpled papers on the floor. Thats the bad part about dating someone that knew you from before. “Care to explain what’s on them?”

“Damien I have made 45 lists and your name has managed to end up on all of them one way or another, but I am so tired of trying to be with people that aren’t even into me.”

“But Frankie--”

“Let me finish,’ he nodded, ‘Damien I think I have found someone that is willing to dedicate their mind and soul to me. I am ready to move on from you and I suggest you do the same.”

“Are you breaking up with me?”

“Damien we were broken up since the minute you decided to cheat on me. I’m sorry, but I think it’s time for you to leave... for good.”

He stood up and when he reached my door he turned, “Can I know one more thing?”

“Sure.”

“Is it Gerard?”

I stayed silent, then I saw something flicker in his eye, but decided to ignore it. He turned and walk out of my room and my life... for good this time. I hope...

Notes

I'm alive! I was gonna make a Christmas post, then a new years post, but I got lazy then I got a horrible writers block! So take this as a Merry New Years update! Oh, also, I bet you guys can't guess why I finally got the inspiration to write and post a new chapter!?!?!?! BECAUSE I GOT ACCEPTED TO SAN FRANCISCO STATE!!!! WOOOOO! HOORAY FOR ME! (You guys probably don't care, but I'm really happy!) :D As for the updates... they should come quicker due to it being second semester of my senior year and if you live in California (like myself) you will learn that this means you have a week off, roughly every three weeks. So hope for more updates!

Phew! That was a long authors note! Hope you enjoyed the update!
