Nervous Breakdown
NERVOUS BREAKDOWN
Every time he walks by I find myself unable to stop staring. God the things he does to my heart! I just wish I knew his name. When the door opens in my third period class I look up to see him walking in with an apologetic smile on his face.
"Sorry I'm late, sir. I couldn't find the room." He was panting heavily. He must have ran here.
"Just go find your seat Mr. Iero."
As usual the teacher was in a pissy mood. Oh my god! He is coming towards me. He sat down next to me and I could feel that my heart was about to pound out of my chest.
"I'm Frank," he said extending his hand for me to shake. "Gerard," I said unable to say anything more. Holy shit I'm touching him! EEEEE!!! Ugh I sound like a teenage girl when I think.
"So I see you like The Misfits," he said glancing at my shirt. "Yeah, they are one of my favorite bands." Great now he probably thinks I'm a freak.
"That's cool. I'm going to their concert tonight!" He seemed so excited, as well he should be.
"Lucky! My mom couldn't get me tickets in time," I sighed.
"I have an extra if you'd like to come with me," he said pausing.
"I'd love to," I said smiling. Holy shit!! I'm going to a Misfits concert with the hottest guy I have ever seen!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Half an hour before the concert I'm so excited, and so nervous. I feel like I'm going to pass out. I think I'm going to ask him out. I'll do it at the concert. Wait no, I can't, he is probably straight. Or even worse, homophobic! But what if I don't say anything and miss my chance? Maybe I'll never find love. Maybe I'll die alone like the freak I am.
I pulled up to his house and rang the bell. His mother let me in.
"Hello, you must be Gerard," she smiled, "Frank is in his room getting ready. I'm so glad he made a friend. The Misfits are one of his favorite bands you know. My Frankie loves his punk music..." She just kept rambling on and on.
"Hey Gee," Frank said coming down the stairs.
"Hey, you ready to go?"
"Yeah, sorry for my mom's rambling by the way," he laughed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At the concert The way I feel around him is like I've never felt before. I want him to know how I feel. He is driving me completely insane. Fuck this, I'm going to tell him.
"F-Frank," I spluttered.
"Yeah Gee?" "I like you, a lot." I admitted.
"I like you too, he said.
"No, I mean in a romantic way." I blushed.
"EWWWWW I'm straight you disgusting fag!!!" he shouted.
"I-I-I'm sorry," I spluttered running away in tears.
As I was running I heard him shout, "I never want to see your disgusting face again!" I can't believe I was so stupid!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At home "How was the concert?" Mikey asked.
"Shut the fuck up Mikes, I'm not in the mood," I snapped.
"What's wrong Gee?"
"I said shut the fuck up!!"
I stormed to room and slammed the door. Just then my phone vibrated.
Gee, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it. I'm on my way over. ~XOXO Frankie
Yeah sure you are. Don't even bother. ~X_X Gee
I really am. I love you Gee. I was just afraid you found out I was gay and it was a joke. I really do love you! ~XOXO Frankie
I don't care what you fucking say! I don't care what you fucking do! Goodbye for-fucking-ever Mr. Iero. ~X_X Gee
Now he's all apologetic. I fucking hate him! I'm done with all the shit I'm dealt. I'm fucking done with life! I picked up a pen and began to write.
Mom, I am so sorry for everything I ever said or did that hurt you. I'm sorry to do this to you. Take care of Mikes for me. I love you, goodbye.
Dad, I'm sorry you never got to see me amount to anything. I'm sorry that I failed you- goodbye and I'm sorry that I am the worst son a person could have.
Mikey, Stay strong little brother. I will always be there for you when you need me. I am always with you, at least in spirit. I love you, don't ever forget it. Love you Mike-Mike, Gee.
Frank, I still love you and that won't change. Goodbye, though I know you won't miss me.
I finished the letter and placed it on my door. Then I picked up my knife and slit my wrist. I lay on the ground watching the blood drip to the floor and stain the pure white rug. Frank ran in just as I took my last breath.
"GERARD NO!!" he shouted crying.
"I- love- you, Fr-ank" I whispered as I slipped off into a beautiful oblivion.
"Sorry I'm late, sir. I couldn't find the room." He was panting heavily. He must have ran here.
