I'm Okay. Trust Me
Faceless Parents
Frank's POV
After Mikey walked in on me and Gerard making out, I didn't stay much longer. I was too shaken up. I had just asked Gerard to be my boyfriend and then Mikey catches me in his brother's lap with his tongue down my throat. I sighed. Fan-fucking-tastic. I was relieved that Mikey wasn't a homophobe and was at least somewhat cool about it, but what he said about their parents. How he said they'd freak out if they found out about me and Gerard. The thought made me shiver.
When I got home, I already knew my mom was out drinking. It was Friday night. Where else would she be? I dragged myself up the stairs and into my room and flung my clothes into a pile on the floor. I was exceptionally tired tonight so I collapsed on my bed and my eyes fluttered shut within seconds.
The dim light flickered on. I was once again crammed into the small closet with Gerard. But he was awake this time. He struggled in the small space.
“Frank we have to get out! They're gonna take me away from you!” his voice was full of worry and panic. I knew the closet door wouldn't open from the inside. I had tried before.
Then I heard the footsteps coming up the stairs. Only this time there were two sets of feet. A sob escaped my mouth.
Despite knowing the door wouldn't open, I threw myself against it. I had to get myself and Gerard out and try to get away from the monsters coming for us. Gerard let out a desperate cry as the footsteps got closer. I yanked Gerard away from the door and positioned myself in front of him. I doorknob turned and the door opened to reveal two faceless people. Neither of them had a belt though. Suddenly my body went limp and I couldn't move. They reached for Gerard and he screamed.
“Frank! Frank, help me! Please! Please don't let them take me from you!” his sobs pierced me like a sharp blade. Their long, snake-like arms stretched further. They gripped Gerard's biceps and pulled him out of the closet. Gerard screamed and kicked and tried to get away, but they were too strong. I couldn't help him. I couldn't move. I couldn't scream. I could only watch in horror has they dragged Gerard's flailing body away.
I woke up with tears streaming down my face. Even though I was covered in sweat, my body was freezing. I felt like I was going to throw up. I ran to the bathroom room and puked into the toilet. I fell to my knees, crying and shivering. I knew why there were two faceless people in my dream this time. They represented Gerard's parents. Taking Gerard away from me.
