"Hey you awake?" Gerard whispers, peering his brightly colored head into my room.
"Now I am." I say rubbing my eyes. Gerard walks over and sits on my bedside.
"I was wondering if you'd like to come with me to my grandmas, she's not feeling very well and she would like to see me. I don't think I can handle it alone emotionally." He sniffles.
"Sure." I say taking his hand in mine and squeezing it.
"Really?" he smiles.
"Of course." I smile back.
"Thank you Frankie." he says then kisses me on the cheek.
I feel them heat up and Gerard smiles again, "Hurry up, were leaving in 10 minutes."
"Alright." I reply, peeling myself from the sticky bed covers covered in sweat as a result of another of my night terrors.
Last night was not the worst, but it definately wasnt the most pleasant.
I shake the mind from my memory as I throw on some fresh clothes then go downstairs to the lobby to find Gerard sitting on a lounge.
"You ready?" he asks.
I nod and he extends he arms to me, I take it and we walk out to the car together.
After about an hour or so of driving we get to our destination. The house is small, out in the countryside, but the house itself is eroded, I wonder why Gerard isn't worried about such unstable living conditions.
"Thanks again for coming." He says squeezing my hand as we wait at the front door.
"Like I said before, its not problem." I smile and lean on my tip toes to kiss his chin.
Damn I hate being short.
"Gerard?" an elderly voice croaks, "is that you?"
"Hello grandma Helena." Gerard says when the scrawny woman opens the door.
Her stature is small, hunched over and her hair is gray, particular grandma material if I do say so myself. Her oxygen tubes are hooked up to her nose and she has to wheel an oxygen canister with her where ever she goes.
She invites us inside and I sit on the couch, Gerard beside me, and Grandma Helena in the chair oppisite.
"So is this the Frankie you've been blabbing nonstop to me about Gerry." she asks.
"Grandmaaaa." Gerard whines and blushes.
"What I find it adorable, and your little friend does too." she laughs, pointing to me.
"Little friend." I whisper to Gerard.
"Shush Frankie." Gee laughs. "and yes it is grandma." Gerard smiles.
"Are you two dating?" she asks
"No," Gerard mumbles, "We're uh just friends."
"Oh, is Mikey going to-"
"I don't know I don't talk to him anymore." he cuts her off.
Who's mikey?
"Oh that's right..." Helena mutters. "It was nice seeing you two boys though."
"Yeah we'd better get going." Gerard smiles then takes my hand.
"Bye grandma," we both chorus.
"Gerard?" I ask once we're in the privacy of the car. "Who's Mikey."
"I don't want to talk about it." he grunts.
Alright, for now.
I'll manage to get it out of him eventually.
