SOMEONE Save Us

"How are you doing? What the happened to you yesterday, you were fine after school when I..." Suddenly Gerard ran out of the room.

Mikey and I looked at each other with confusion."Well! Aren't you going to go catch him. I mean I would but.." Mikey piped up.

"Oh shit, right!" I quickly began to follow Gerard.

I didn't catch up him until we got to the bottom floor. He somehow managed to get in the elevator right before I turned the corner. Plus, he was so much faster than me. Okay well, now the list has passed Toronto and has reached North York.
Anyway, when I did finally catch up with him, his face was beat red and drenched in tears and disappointment followed by a spark of guilt.

"Hey..what's wrong? Why did you just ditch out like that?" I panted.

"I just can't!" He cried out. "How can I look at him like that and just go along with it?!"

"What do you mean? Go along with what? You're confusing me now Gee."

"I mean go along with..wait did you just call me Gee?" He paused and then giggled a little. So cute..wait what?..anyway."Mikey used to call me that when he was younger. I haven't been called Gee in almost 8 years.

"...."

"No no! It's fine just a little shocking." He reassured me.

"Oh, okay, then continue with what you were saying." I smiled.

"Oh..yeah. I just can't bring myself to go along with the fact that the night that I decided to no go home, Mikey ends up almost dying. I mean what if no one had found him, he could--"

"WOAH WOAH! Don't even do that to yourself Gerard! 1. He wouldn't have died. 2. But they did! and 3. If you bring that out on the table than I'm going to just go back upstairs because that's just a dead end of a one way street." His tears stopped as I finished speaking.

*Sniff*"...okay, whatever. Just don't leave! Please. I like having you around...you're a good listener but you're not like a wall, you actually understand and speaking meaning. You know?"

"Uh, I guess so. You are too though. Haha that's weird!" I chuckled to myself.

"What?" He questioned.

"Nothing just..okay well you remember the golden rule that they talk about at school like 24/7?"

"Yeah. What about it?"

"It's just weird because usually I just brush it off 'cus it's stupid. But just now I realized that you listen to me so I listen to you and vise versa."

"Haha you're so right! That is kind of weird, guess we listen more than WE even know!" He giggled. God, now it's just killing me! Soo adorable. Fvck normality that's what I think so whatever.

"So, are you okay now? I mean you seriously can't blame yourself for what happened."

"Yeah, I guess." He smiled lamely.

"Good! I don't like when people cry out of guilt that they don't deserve."
We hugged and then headedback inside. While waiting for the elevator we saw mom coming down the stairs.

"Oh hey boys, I was just looking for you guys. Uh, Mikey asked me to ask Frank if he could go up there alone 'cus Mikey wants to talk to you." She informed.

"Uh, sure!"

"..Hey Gerard do you want to come with me to go and get some paperwork from the school?" She asked.

"Yeah! Why not?" He was in a cheerier mood.

They left just as the elevator arrived. It was empty as I stepped in and headed up to the third floor.

*Ding* The elevator had reached my destination. I strutted around the corner and down the two hallways, soon to arrive at Mikey's room. As I walked in he looked at me with a grin that almost didn't fit on his face. He kind of looked like a super skinny version of Batman's 'The Penguin' character. I chuckled at the resemblance, but he didn't seem phased by sudden humored gesture.

"What? Why are you looking at me like that, Michael?" I pressed.

"Oh well than Franklin if you want to play that game!.." He cocked his eyebrows.

"What?! Franklin isn't even my name. At least I have my facts straight James!"

"Well anyways Anthony, so why are you suddenly so...shall I say...accepting, of all of Gerard's, for lack of a better term, bullshit?" He stared deeply at me.

"God Mikey! Seriously! I'm not 'suddenly accepting', I'm just listening and helping. And it's not bullshit, we'll just call it dysfunctions."

"Hmm...now, why don't I believe you? Oh! I know! because guess what...I can see right through your bullshit, oh sorry...dysfunctions!"

"Ugh!! Fine. Okay well he just gets to me sometimes, but like it's whatever." I gave in.

"I'm not sure it is!" He smirked. " A little birdy once told me about a certain someone who's name rhymes with Leonard happens to be almost smitten with the one named Frank."

"Uh, Mikes, those names don't really rhyme."

"Franklin, I'm hopped up on shit I didn't even know existed, I'm not going to always be Allen 2.0, okay?" He reasoned.

"Okay...but Mikes, it's Albert not Allen. As in Albert Einstein!"

"Oh well! Anyways, so what do you mean by it's whatever, do you like him or nah? 'cus if not it's my job to get him hitched ASAP and I can't be playing little playground games with people who will only ever be possibles!?" He surprised me by being so blunt.

"Wait! Hitched, games, possibles? Mikey what the fvck are you saying, like seriously?!"

"You heard me! Hitched, past verb means to be married, games, noun means wasting time in this scenario, possibles, noun means people who I would allow to marry my brother! Understand now young Franklin?" He sighed.

"Yeah, I get it. I'm not stupid!"

"Hence why you are classified as a 'possible'!"

"Oh God Mikey!"

"FRANKLIN! Are you in OR..NAH?" He pleaded for an answer.

"FINE! YES! SURE! Are you happy now?"

"Oh young Franklin...petty, petty, Franklin, I've always been happy with you!" He returned to his original mega grin that had been lost somewhere in the conversation.

"You know what, I'm going to let that slide because you're so hopped up on narcs!"

"Alright, I mean what ever helps you sleep peacefully. So, I can speed up this 'friendship' if you like, but you have to promise that when he does, 'cus he will, come up to you and deny himself from you, you have to stay up with him! I'm not saying just be dragged along if you're unhappy, I'm just saying don't cut him out at the first loose thread, got me?"

"Yep! No denying, keep him confident, and mend threads! Got you, and yeah I promise!" I accepted.

I really was falling for Gerard. I can admit that now. I guess if not for Mikey, nothing would've ever come from it. Now, my main challenges. Follow Mikey's lead, give Gee space to accept and find a way to tell Mommy. Damn! This will be fun!
