"Hello?" I huffed into the phone.
"Frank right?" A voice replied.
"Yeah, who is this?" I asked.
"Gerard Way, I hope you remember me" He said.
Gerard and I had known each other for some reason. I wasn't sure how though. He was four years older than me so we didn't go to school together. I didn't go to college with him either as I dropped out to be in my band, Pencey Prep. Wait that's how I knew him. He'd come to all of Pencey's shows and I'd go visit him if he played somewhere with his brother.
"Uh yeah, I remember you." I groaned. "Now why are you calling me? Its the middle of the night."
"You know what happened this morning? Or yesterday er....The night fucks me up" Gerard said into the phone.
"Yeah the planes crashed into the towers, I'm on board so far" I replied.
There was a long pause of silence until I heard Gerard's voice start talking again.
"When I saw that I started thinking about my life and being grateful that it wasn't me in the planes or towers. I also thought of how I'm doing nothing with my life at the moment and I thought about starting a band. I have a lead guitarist, drummer and bassist but I need a rhythm guitarist and you were the first to come to mind" Gerard sighed out quickly.
"Are you sure you want to start a band?" I asked.
"Yes, I'm positive." Gerard replied.
I did want to be in a band but I had Pencey already but in all honesty it was getting old and I also felt like I should do something else with my life when Gerard said that. Gerard had always been someone who wasn't really into doing anything with his life and I never expected him to do anything.
"Uhh sure. I'd love to be in a band with you." I said. "What's it called?" I asked.
"My Chemical Romance"
