Tell Me I'm An Angel
Chapter 6
Frank's P.O.V
For a month now, Gerard has avoided being anywhere near me. He sits with Mikey at the other end of the class rooms. I can't get Mikey alone either. So bang goes my idea to get to Gerard through him. I can't even get him alone at gym. Mikeys faster than I am and he never changes in the same locker rooms. I still don't know what I've done wrong. I watch Gerard as he practices for the regionals. Singing his own songs. I kind of liked the one that went:
So long to all my friends
everyone of them met tragic ends.
I think it's called The Light Behind Your Eyes. It's bloody brilliant. And Gerard just seems to get sexier by the second. I watch him every night. But he's not always naked. Unfortunately. I have to think of something.
It's a cold Saturday today and I'm out walking. Thinking about how I can get Gerard when I hear someone call my name. I look in the direction of the voice and my heart jumps in my throat. Leaning against the park fence is Gerard. But he's not in a good state. He looks like he's been beat up. His beautiful lips have blood dripping from them. He has a black eye. I can see blood seeping from his arms and legs through his light blue jeans and grey hoodie. He's clutching his stomach. I rush towards him. "What the fuck happened?" I ask as I stop infront of him.
"Please.." He struggles to get his phone out of his pocket. When he does, he holds it out to me. I notice he can't seem to hold it properly. I take the phone. "C...call...Oli."
I nod and scroll down to Oli on the mobile and press dial. Oli answers pretty quickly.
Oli: "Hey, Gerard. What's up?"
Me: "Err...this is Frank. Gerard has been badly beaten. He's by the old park caretakers building."
Oli: "What? Fuck. Jez? Gerard needs us asap. We're on our way."
He puts the phone down. I look back at Gerard. He's got his eyes closed. "Thank you, Frank." He mutters quietly.
"You need an ambulance." I point out and his eyes fly open.
"No." He snaps. "No ambulance."
I shake my head. "You need one."
"NO." He shouts. He looks angry and terrified. "Promise no ambulance. Promise me."
I frown. "Okay. No ambulance."
A car pulls up beside us and the tattoo guy and the scary guy get out. They run to Gerards side.
"Oli." Gerard mumbles as the tattoo guy touches him lightly on the shoulder.
"Jez." Oli says looking at the scary guy. "Call a ambulance."
"NO." Gerard shouts again. "I gotta find Mikey."
Oli and Jez looked concerned. "Did he hurt Mikey?" Jez asked.
Gerard shook his head and gasped in pain. "I took it for him. I won't let anyone hurt him. I have to protect him. I'm all he has. I have to find him. Now. Before it's too late."
