"Frank I-"

"no save it gerard I don't want your fucking pity ok? Now you know my secret so I'll fuck off and stay out of your life like you want me to." Frank said his while body shaken with sobs.

"frank I didn't know!" Gerard fought

"I know that dipshit! I was going to tell you but I decided against it-"

"why!"

"because I was going to tell you the day casey showed up then when I saw how you treated her I realized I didn't want you to hate me but that happened anyway."

"Frank I wouldn't have hated you." Gerard said quietly while silent tears rolled down his cheeks.

"Really gee? Because you treated casey like shit when you found out and told the whole school and I couldn't have handled that. I would've been long gone if that was me."

The room was full of tension and it was a really weird picture. Frank in his boxers fighting gerard who was crying and mikey who was sitting looking scared on the couch across the room with teary eyes.

"I wouldn't have done that to you frank! You know that!" Gerard said getting more serious and angry. I saw where this was going and stood in between them.

"Gee back off."

"casey move" he growled at me.

"Really so you can punch him? Your really not that shallow are you? Cause if I just found out that my bestfriend since middle school Self harms I'd be trying to help and talk to him not beat the shit out of someone whose already unstable I figured you would've found that out after pushing me to the edge."

his arms instantly dropped and he fell to the ground crying mumbling I'm sorrys over and over.

"get dressed were going out." I said to frank who just nodded dumbly at me and began to dress while I threw on my hoodie and grabbed some converse.

"why did we come here?" Frank asked since I dragged him to the middle of the woods.

"for that." I said pointing up to an old hunting post which I'd converted into a calm down place for myself before I left.

"What is it? A deer post?"

"Yea but I come here to calm down just trust me." I said climbing up the tree and into it. Frank followed and fell onto the wood floor.

He just sat there looking nervous.

"Listen I'm sorry for gee." I said apologetically.

"Why should you be sorry he's done worse to you and he's your brother. I'm his friend I have the option to leave him you don't."

"I know it's just I can't figure out why he treats people like shit I mean...honestly tell me are any of your cuts from gerard."

Frank hung his head and nodded.

"What'd hedo?"

"I mean just a bunch of little things...he told everyone I was gay because I refused to play seven minutes in heaven and spin the bottle at parties. I guess that was the main thing."

"Seriously?"

"Yea why...."

"dude I can't picture gerard doing that. You can't tell anyone but Mikey's gay and gerard would beat people up even if they were joking about gay people because he was so defensive of mikey. "

"I knew mikey was gay but I didn't think gerard knew."

"Ya he does....frank why did you start cutting."

"Casey come on please-"

"tell me."

"I used to be picked on a lot then I met gee and we became friends but... I don't know it was like I was never good enough for him and then I wouldn't go to parties or play those games because I have anxiety and when he told people I was gay my thoughts just plummeted to the darkest part of my mind and the blood started to flow."

I pulled frank into a hug and we eventually ended up just cuddling each other.

"Thank you casey."

"Your welcome."
