"...I know... Mikey I think- yeah okay fine- hes awake now I'll call you back,"Frank was pacing about in front of me but as soon as he saw that I was awake he sat down next to me,"How are you feeling?"
"I feel fine... Whats the time? Shouldnt you be at work?"I groaned as a killer headache made its presence known.
"I finished work like two and a half hours ago. Its almost 8 o'clock. Gerard you've been asleep for about 8 hours,"Frank scanned my face. He felt my temperature and scoweled,"You're burning up again."

"Again?"I raised an eyebrow at him. Then I noticed the wet flannel next to me.
"When I got home from work you were moaning and wriggling around. At first I thought you were having a wet dream but they weren't the same noises you usually make. You were soaked in sweat and your forehead was burning hot."

I blushed stupidly at the mention of my sex noises but Frank's easiness about it somehow stopped me straight away. I closed my eyes and made a noise of distress,"Can you get me some water and panadol please?"
Frank didnt say aanything. He just got up and got me my water and pilles. I swallowed it all without a word and flopped down so my head was in Frank's lap.

"What was Mikey saying? Is he okay?"I felt so woozy. Did someone drug me? The last thing I ate was fucking dinner at Linda's. That was over 24 hours ago. No wonder I was so dizzy. I was fucking starving. As if to confirm the thought, my stomach rumbled.
"He said that he was worried about you and that I should wake you up. I didnt want to but right when I gave in you woke up so I didnt have to. Mikey's fine though, why do you keep worrying about him?"Frank asked quietly. He started running his fingers through my hair softly.

"When I got home I went to clean the bed but I couldnt- deal with it so I called Mikey and sobbed to him and he just said he had to go. Before he hung up I heard him yelling at someone else..."
"That doesnt mean he's in trouble. It most likely meant that someone else was. You're just imagining things,"Frank leaned down and kissed the side of my head.

"Wait,"I said as a thought hit me,"You called Mikey? Cause you were worried about my fever and shit?"
"Yeah..."
"Dude why didnt you call your Mum?You know, the nurse?"
"I- did not think of that shut up,"Frank stuttered.

I moved onto my back and looked up at him,"You made my headache better. But now my lips are sore,"I pouted.
Frank smiled and kissed me on the lips,"Do you remember before you went to sleep? You asked me if I was gonna shove you over..."
It was like a wall broke in my head. The horrible dizzy feeling came back even though I was lying own, along with the memory of my hallucination.

"Frank you dont think I'm getting what Jim had do you?:I scrunched my eyes up.
"No why would you think that?"Frank's hand froze for a second.
"I was hallucinating before you got here,"I flinched at Frank's look of confusion and upset as he analysed my story.
"Its possible... When was the last time you ate though?"
"Dinner at your Mum's,"I groaned. My stomach rumbled again at the talk of food.

"Right, what do you want to eat?"Frank sighed and slid out from under my head.
"I'm not hungryyyyyy. Coooome baaaaack,'I whined. Frank's legs were a better pillow than the couch.
"Bullshit. You say that now but if I put food down in front of you, you'd eat it,"Frank said from the kitchen, rifling through my almost empty pantry.
"Fine. Can we go get take aways? I've got nothing here,"I sighed and dragged myself from the couch. Frank obviously wasnt coming back. Instead he was taking a swig of my coke from the bottle. I leant on the island and stared at him. He held it out to me silently.

"Thanks,"I mumbled and took it from him. The second the coke hit the back of my throat overwhelming hunger pains hit me. I swallowed and thumped the now empty bottle down on the bench and wiped my mouth.
"Told you,"Frank smirked. I rolled my eyes and grabbed my car keys.
"Uh uh. If you think you're driving you've got another thing coming to you,"Frank snatched them out of my hands.
"Can we at least take my car? She hasnt been driven in weeks I feel so bad."
"Yeah yeah whatever. Come on. I dont want you keeling over on me,"Frank grabbed his wallet and tuggeed me out and down to my baby.

"Look at this,"I swiped a finger across the dashboard,"There is a layer of dust from disuse. I'm sorry car please dont tell Bob,"I patted the dashboard, sending dust into the air. Frank rolled his eyes and started the car up. Or tried to.
"I remember why its been so long since I've driven her. There's not enough fuel to even start the car. Fuck!"I thumped my head back and looked at Frank.

"Looks like we're taking my car,"Frank undid his seatbelt and got out. I got out and followed him out of the underground parking. His car was right outside the front doors, gleaming smugly in the sun. I glared at it as we got in.
"You knew my car had no petrol didnt you,"I sighed and watched as he pulled his own keys out and turned the car on.
"Damn right I did. You want some McDonalds?"Frank asked as he pulled out of the guest parking lot.

"Sure... Fuck yeah I want a big mac,"I sighed happily at the thought of a greasy big mac and chips.
"Gross. Drive thru or sit in?"Frank turned a corner and maccas came into sight up the road.
"Drive thru. Lets go up to Suicide Point like on our first night alone here,"I closed my eyes and smiled widely.

The first night that Frank and I had gotten to ourselves after the move, we had cooked together for the first time then packed it all up to take to this random as cliff over looking this small forest and downtown. During the day it looked pretty cool. At sunset it was gorgeous but right now it was already dark so everything would be lit up. This would be the first time for us to see it in the dark. The cliff had gotten its name, Suicide Point, because of the fact that there was about 10 to 15 suicides at this cliff on average every year.

"Hi there welcome to McDonalds, what can I get you?"A nasally sounding boy said.
"Hi can I get a large coke zero with no ice and a chicken salad but without the chicken?"Frank caught me staring at him and smiled, Jesus he was beautiful. That smile just killed me.

"What dressing would you like with that?"
"None thanks. Can I aslo get a large big mac combo with the same drink?"Frank said happily. My stomach rumbled loudly in the short silence and made Frank giggle.
"Is that everything for tonight?"
"Uh yeah-"
"No! Can I get a large chocolate sundae as well?"I yelled, leaning over the top of Frank.
'Times two,"Frank grinned.
"Awesome. Drive on through."

Frank silently drove up to the window and smiled at the poor teenage boy of about fifteen covered in zits.
"Thats 24 dollars and 30 cents,"He smiled back, revealing bright blue braces.
"Gerard do you have your wallet on you?"Frank asked, biting his lip ring and holding a 20.
"No its back home. You short? Oh stupid question. I know the answer to that,"I smiled cheekily.
"Fuck you. I've got my card but I wanted to use cash ummmm. Ooh! I've got change in the glovebox. Gerard get it,"Frank turned back to the cashier,"Sorry. Just getting some more money."

I pulled open the glovebox and stared. It was filled with shitloads of coins along with shitloads of rubbish.
"Here,"I grabbed out two quarters and gave them to Frank.
"Alright thanks guys,"The guy muttered with a bored look on his face.

"He's friendly,"I said quietly. Frank promptly burst into laughter, giving the guy a fright which of course made me laugh.
Drive on through,"The guy muttered.
"Sorry thank you,"Frank giggled and accelerated forward. I opened my window and let the breeze waft over my face.

"Here take these,"Frank handed me the tray of drinks and ice cream then took the bag of food. God it smelt good,"Thank you!"Frank called as he sped off,"Right! To the cliff of destiny!"He grinned at me.
"Destiny? This cliff is the most popular spot for suicides..."I raised an eyebrow at him.
"Exactly! It could be their destiny to kill themselves and then to come back as someone who grows up to discover the cure for cancer. Destiny,"Frank's grin somehow got wider.

"You're a dick,"I smiled.
"Gerard I thought we've been over this. I like dick. Geez,"Frank shook his head.
"Mmm hmm. Your phone's ringing,"I pointed out.
"Answer it for me idiot I'm in the middle of driving right now,"Frank braked hard, sending me forward suddenly, as a car pulled out in front of us. Frank tooted the horn and said loudly,"We would have crashed if I had answered it you know."

"I know. Hi Linda. Frank's driving right now."
"Oh right. Frank told me about your fever. You feeling okay?"Her voice sounded strained, like she was under loads of pressure.
"Yeah I'm okay now. I just havent eaten since I was at yours. We've gotten some dinner and we're going up to Suicide Point to eat it,"I said and pinched a chip from the bag.
"Oh that sounds nice. You guys havent seen the city when its dark have you?"Linda gushed.

God, how much did Frank tell her about our mini dates?"Nope. This will be a first."
"Right well tell Frank I want him to sort this thing out with Lily and I want him home tonight,"Linda said loudly.
"Frank did you hear that?"I looked at him, odd shadows being thrown about his face with the dim moonlight and the random lamp post along the windy road up the cliff.

"I heard her. I'll be home late though,"Frank said even louder.
"Well dont wake anyone up. Love you boys,"Linda practically shouted right in my ear before hanging up. I looked around and saw that we had reached the home made parking lot. I had only ever seen another person here our second time here during the day and they had left as soon as we had arrived. This place was sad and creepy.

"We getting out?"Frank stuck his hand out the window,"Doesnt feel too cold out there."
"Can we sit on the edge?"I sighed as the breeze blasted me with its freshness again.
"Sure,"Frank smiled. He grabbed the food from my lap and got out of the car. I got out and grabbed the drinks. Frank locked the doors the second my door was shut.

"How do we get over the fence?"Frank said as we walked over to it.
"Um,"My eyes ran along the fence until I spotted a gap,"There."
"How did you know that was there? You planning on taking the final plunge?"Frank raised an eyebrow at me as we trudged through the long grass.

"No. Dick. I used my eyes. I found it with them,"I smiled as he started shaking his head at me.
"You have got to find a new insult because dick just isnt working,"Frank grinned as he stepped over the last wooden rail left in this part of the pathetic fence. I stepped over as well and followed him until he decided on a spot that seemed to be directly in the middle. I carefully sat down, dangling my legs over the edge, and gave Frank his drink. Our sundaes were turning to liquid but I didnt really give a damn.

"This is amazing,"I said as I actually took in the veiw.
"Look at that. was past the city lights, that small patch of lights. Do you think thats another city or something?"Frank said as he pulled out his salad. He handed me the bag and I dived in. The first bite was like heaven. My stomach rumbled painfully in anticipation.

"Could be,"I said thorugh my third mouthful. Oh god this was good.
"God damn I'm hungry,"Frank said and stuffed one of the biggest slices of tomato I had ever seen into his mouth.
"Ditto,"I muttered and took another bite. My burger was disappearing fast.

"So... You wanna talk about it?"I glanced at Frank but he seemed oblivious as he cut up a huge piece of lettuce. He shrugged his shoulders and took a sip of his drink,"About what?"
"Lily. That whole shebang?"I said and popped the last mouthful of burger into my mouth,"God that was good."

"Whats there to talk about?"Frank mumbled and looked away, sucking up his drink quietly.
"How about the fact that she called you a faggot and told you to get fucked? Or that she blames you for her getting raped?"I suggested as I opened my sundae and dipped a chip in.

"How fucking dare she?!"Frank burst out suddenly, making me jump and drop my sundae, almost making me fall off as well,"I care about her so fucking much! Does she not realise how terrible I feel about not being there? The stupid cow... Sorry."
"Shit. You're sharing yours with me di- douche,"I sighed as I watched my sundae spill chocolate sauce and melted ice cream everywhere as it rolled into the abyss and out of sight.

"Frank she has no right to blame you. But she was angry when she said it. It was said in the heat of the moment, she didnt mean it. You know that deep down. Same with the fag comment. I dont think she meant to get so angry,"I said thoughtfully. I shuffled closer to Frank and rested my head on his shoulder.

"I know... But it still hurts. Stupid customers? Yeah. Idiotic jocks? Wouldnt expect anything less from them but my best friend? That is not something you expect to hear no matter what... I need to talk to her dont I,"Frankl sighed and put his head on mine.
"Yeah you do... But you need to make sure she-"I started to say but stopped because of someone shouting behind us. Frank and I turned around to see a young man in his twenties come rushing out of the darkness and into the faint light from the moon, waving his arms wildly.

"Dont do it!"He yelled.
"The fuck?"I looked at Frank but he just shrugged his shoulders at me so we waited as this guy tumbled over the fence and stopped next to us, bent over and breathing heavily.
"Uh are you okay?"Frank asked.
"Dont. Do. It."He panted.

"Dont do what?"I asked but it was already hitting me. Frank must have realised as well because he glanced at me and said,"We're not about to kill ourselves. We just wanted to eat our dinner here like we have before..."Frank snorted.
"Really? From far away it looked like you were. I mean, he dropped something and you started yelling and then he moved closer and rested his head on your shoulder? Looked like two lovers' last moments,"The guy seemed pissed off now. Probably because he had just ran all the way here for no reason.

"Well sorry to disappoint but we're not done in this world so..."Frank turned back around and started eating his sundae.
"No- I'm not dis- sorry to disturb you,"The guy sighed heavily before turning around and walking with his shoulders hunched, disappearing back into the darkness.

"What the fuck?"Frank giggled.
"I know... Jesus,"I grinned at him. I put my arm around him and kissed the side of his head,"Its starting to get cold. Do you think we should go to Linda's?"
"Maybe... Lets just stay a moment longer,"Frank snuggled into me, wrapping his arms arpund my back.

"Gerard?"Frank whispered as the breeze tickled my face.
"Mmmm?"
"I love you,"Frank said firmly.
"Love you too pumpkin,"A grin broke out on my face. zfrank could be such a douche bag sometimes but there was always these little instances where he was the sweetest little thing.

"Come on lets go. Mum is probably gonna be pissed off,"Frank sighed. We bum shuffled backwards so we could stand up without danger of falling. I kicked the last of our rubbish off the cliff and grabbed Frank's hand. Together we crossed back over the fence and went back to the car.

"How do you feel now? Still feel dizzy? Or tired?"Frank asked as he started the car up.
"I feel fan-fucking-tastic,"I grinned.
"Brilliant. Cause I feel naughty,"Frank winked at me and turned the head lights on. He started dribing down the twisty road to the bottom of the cliff but stopped,"Isnt that the dude that thought we were going to jump?"Frank pointed to a hunched figure up ahead.

I peered through the glass and stared at the figure,"Yeah I think it is... Should we ask him if he needs a lift?"
"No! He could be a psycho. I mean, why would he walk all the way up here? We didnt pass him on the way up here so he must have already been up here. He was probably watching us,"Frank started moving forward again.

"Yeah but Frank what if he was going to jump or something... I dont know... Maybe you're right. Forget it,"I sighed and watched the guy as we drove past. He looked up at me as we passed and made me screech for Frank to stop. His face was covered in blood and he was screaming.

"Frank he's bleeding!"I shouted. I opened the door and flew out to the guy,"Are you okay?"I shook him. His face was stuck in this soundless scream. I shook him again as it started to rain heavily. Within a minute of me constantly shaking him, trying to get a reaction of some sort, I was soaked. I blinked the rain out of my eyes and was back in the car completely dry.

"What?"I rubbed my eyes and looked around.
"Hmm?"Frank looked at me.
I looked at him. He seemed completely calm. Raindrops started thudding on the roof of the car,"I-"I didnt want to ruin Frank's night. He had had such a nice time. We both had. It was really nice,"Nothing I just thought- nevermind."
