Who am I to you?
Chapter 24
The first to visit me is Gerard, which is surprising. In the past few weeks I'd gotten to know him, he'd never been a morning person. And yet here he was, bright eyed and bushy tailed.
"Hi Frankie!" He squealed, practically bouncing over to me. "I got here extra early so I could have some time alone with you before Mikey came. Are you feeling any better?"
I just shrugged, not even bothering to look over at him. I heard him shift, as though there was something he wanted to tell me. Hesitantly he spoke up.
"I...I brought you something."
Of course this made my anger start to boil, after I specifically said they could not buy my love.
"Gerard," I started, growling softly. "What did I-"
He quickly cut me off. "No! I didn't buy anything! I said I brought you something, not I bought you something."
I glanced at him warily before turning so I was facing him. After a few moments I let out a grudging, "Okay.
I looked at him expectantly, playing with my lip ring out of habit. I saw Gerard's eyes were drawn to my lips, but when my mouth tightened he immediately looked away.
"Well? What did you bring me?" I asked, starting to get impatient. I didn't have all day! Well. Technically I guess I did. But I didn't want to spend it waiting!
His cheeks turned bright red as he fumbled with his bag. I'll admit it, his blush was rather cute. It was the first time I'd seen him so flustered- ever.
Eventually he managed to pull something out of his bag, nervously holding it out to me.
"I-it's one of my comic books... My favourite..."
I could tell he was trying not to flinch back in fear when I took the slim volume from his hands.
"Don't be so scared. I won't bite." I murmured, gently flipping through the pages of the obviously well loved book. It was very worn, though not from carelessness. Rather, from the love of being read countless times by its owner.
After what felt like a long while I raised my head to gaze at his scared but soft features. It almost made me feel happy to know he was so anxious to impress me.
"Come here." I whispered. Timidly he crept over, very careful not to overstep any boundaries. I smiled, pulling him a bit closer and giving him a gentle kiss on the cheek.
"Thank you, Gee." I smiled, genuinely pleased he trusted me so much as to loan me something so precious to him.
He was stunned, his mouth agape and his hand hovering over the spot on his cheek I had kissed. I giggled softly, lightly tapping his mouth shut.
"You have a long way to go, but you might just make it through to me."
Notes
Ugh sorry I know it's awful but I had it typed up and then MY COMPUTER FUCKING FROZE ON ME AND I LOST IT ALL. (fuck you safari >:[ )
So.... Here's the shittier attempt to remake it. I'm sorry it's so short and crap but I'm really tired and not wanting to deal with this so. Goodnight guys. Sorry again.
