GERARD
I pulled up to Frank's house, honked the horn, and he came running out. He got in the car with the biggest smile on his face.
"This is, I don't even know what to say. Thank you." He said as I pulled him into a hug.
"Don't mention it." I said as I threw his bag in the back.
"OW!" I heard from the backseat. I whipped around and saw...
"MIKEY!?!"
"Hey Gee! I'm surprised you didn't notice me the whole ride!"
"What the fuck are you doing back there?"
"I wanted to be a part of the rescue mission!"
"You are in SO much trouble when we get home!" I yelled, trying not to laugh. Frank let out a little giggle. Damn, everything about him was cute, even his laugh!
"Oh, by the way, I'm Mikey, Gerard's younger brother."
"I know, we had Band together last year."
"Really, what do you play?"
"Umm... Guitar."
"Cool! Maybe you, Gee, and I could play something together sometime!"
"What?"
FRANK
"What?"
"Well, I play bass, and Gee sings, so...maybe...We could play sometime."
"Sure. What do you guys play and listen to?"
"Mostly Misfits, Iron Maiden, Black Flag, Morrissey, stuff like that."
"Cool, I'm into that stuff too!"
"Sweet!"
"Well, here we are, Frank. Welcome to the Way home." announced Gee as we pulled up. A short, blonde woman who I assumed was his mom, ran outside, and out her hands on her hips.
"Mikes, you're in the shit for sure!" Gee crowed.
"MICHAEL JAMES WAY! HOW DARE YOU SNEAK OUT OF THE HOUSE WITHOUT TELLING ME!!!!! I WAS WORRIED SICK!!" she screamed as soon as we got out of the car.
"Sorry mom..." He said, sulking into the house.
"Oh, you must be Frank! Gerard told me about you!" she beamed as she hugged me tightly.
"Nice to meet you, Mrs.Way."
"Oh please, call me Donna!"
"Thanks."
"Come on in, dinner's almost ready."
"Come on Frankie." Gee said, wrapping his arm around my shoulders and leading me inside. For the first time in a very long time, I felt genuinely happy.
