To the End

“What the hell do you mean we can’t? You’re going to fucking die otherwise, Gee!” Mikey screamed at him.
“Y-you know what they’ll find, Mikey.” He turned to him and immediately Mikey’s face shifted from an infuriated expression to one of pure empathy.
“M-my mom is a doctor… S-she has some stuff in our house that we could put on him…” Frank blurted out “She’s at work right now so the house would be empty…” Mikey looked to Gerard, looking for a sign that Gerard was okay with this. Gerard gave a slight nod and gave Frank a weak smile.
“Thanks, man.” Mikey said, smiling lightly at him as well.
“No problem, anything for the guy who saved my ass… Sorry about that, by the way…” He said, looking down. He felt incredibly guilty for being the reason that all of this had happened in the first place.
“I-It’s not your fault. That ass just goes around picking fights with everyone. Besides I was the one who decided to butt in.” Gerard coughed out. Frank still couldn’t help the fact that he felt like shit. He had hardly gotten a scratch on him and Gerard was all beaten up. Frank showed them the way to his house and helped Gerard up to his room, letting him lay down in his bed.
Frank watched Gerard’s blood drip onto the covers, though he didn’t mind more blood on his sheets. He could always through his sheets in the laundry before his mom got home. He walked into his cluttered, messy bathroom and squatted down to look through a cabinet. He reached all the way back and grabbed all the medical supplies he would need. His mom had left it for him to use if he had ever cut to deep. Such a great mother I’ve got… he thought, scowling lightly. He walked back to his room and handed Mikey the medical supplies. He watched Mikey bandage Gerard’s head and put medicine on his lip, as well as give him an ice pack for the swelling.
Then Mikey did something that made Frank freeze entirely. He pulled off Gerard’s shirt to address and cuts and bruises he had on his torso. Frank found himself staring at Gerard, his mouth hanging open slightly. There’s no way I’m gay. Stop looking. Stop! He cursed at himself in his head, but still couldn’t stop staring.
“Gerard… again….?” Mikey whispered quietly, hoping Frank wouldn’t overhear, though the house was silent and the room was small, and Frank could hear everything.
“Lyn-Z and I have been growing apart…” He whispered back “…You can’t blame me…”
“W-well… I mean, I can see why you would but-“
“Don’t worry about me, Mike. I’ll be just fine, I know when it’s too deep now.” He gave his brother a reassuring smile and Mikey gave a weak smile back before continuing to tend to his wounds.
Frank looked down at his wrists, feeling guiltier than ever. He had always thought that cutting was something beautiful, but then again, he had never known another cutter. He had never know how much it hurts to see someone you care about in pain. He didn’t want this boy to cut, he wanted to save him, to take him away from all his pain. Maybe it was just because Gerard stood up for him, but Frank actually cared for him. He smiled lightly to himself as he realized this.
I haven’t cared about anyone… well, anything, really… in such a long time. Frank thought as he watched Gerard’s side slowly fade away as Mikey bandaged him up. Even while watching Gerard’s side, Frank’s eyes occasionally traveled to Gerard’s chest. It’s just jealousy, probably. Frank told himself as his eyes wandered back and forth along Gerard’s tensed muscles.
It took Mikey around an hour to completely patch up Gerard, and by then Gerard had willingly let himself slip out of consciousness. By the time Mikey finally finished, Frank was on the floor and leaning against the wall, battling slumber himself. Through half closed eyes, he watched Mikey apply the last bandage and stand up, looking over Gerard to see if he had missed anything.
“If you’re wondering,” Mikey said, still looking over his sleeping brother “This sorta happens a lot, so I picked up a few things on how to fix Gee up…”
“So… he’s bullied a lot, then?” Frank said, watching Mikey’s back.
“Yeah… It seems like the entire school is against him sometimes…” Mikey nearly muttered as he turned around, Frank’s eyes immediately darting from Mikey to the floor.
“So, um…” Frank stuttered, trying to think of a way to change the topic. “So he’s got a girlfriend?”
“Yeah, Lyn-Z. She treats him like shit but he just denies it and say he loves her and all that bull.”
Frank felt his heart drop, though he tried his best to ignore it.
“Oh.” He said, not knowing what else to say. The room then fell into a deep quiet, Frank and Mikey sitting on the floor and listening to only the soft and steady breathing of Gerard.
