Frank Stop Staring

Jamia realized there was no time to ask questions, Frank was immediately rushed into surgery and no one was telling her what was going on.
She sat down with her head in her hands. This was so hard on her, she couldn't lose Frank. He had to know that his mother was still alive. Jamia didn't want him to die believing he had no one in his life.
She was being selfish for not getting up and running to Frank to tell him the truth!
Lately, Jamia has been so self-centered, but she can't figure out why. Usually she had a reason as to why she was being so abrupt and rude, but now, it's just because she doesn't want him to know.
Jamia doesn't want to burden Frank with seeing his actual mother on her death bed. His world had been decayed, and she didn't want to crush it after all the years he's spent building up to this point. Jamia didn't want the responsibility of ruining him, but she also doesn't want the grave news of Frank's mother dying and Frank finding out Jamia knew all along.
Jamia was a weak soul.
But Gerard was much stronger than she'll ever be.
He'd be strong for Frank, and Jamia knew that.
So she got up from her seat and headed back to her car where Gerard stayed.
Right when she opened the car door Gerard sprang up asking, "Is Frank okay?!"
She buckled up and started to drive back to Frank's place.
"No one told me anything. I have no clue." Jamia commented.
"Did the doctors take him?" He asked.
"I don't know, Gerard so if you'd stop butting into my business that would be great!" Jamia shouted.
"Excuse me, last time I checked you fucking left him so don't you dare act like I'm only here for a charity case." Gerard sassed her.
"Who are you anyways? Are you two boyfriends or something?"
"It's a little more complicated than that." Gerard explained.
"I have all the time in the world, so go on." Jamia asserted.
"Well it's just that -um-" Gerard said before losing track of what he was going to say.
Jamia rolled her eyes, "It's what?"
"I'm like sort of his...teacher." Gerard mumbled, but Jamia heard very clearly what he said which was exactly what Gerard didn't want.
"Are you serious!? This isn't just some high school relationship, this is a felony! I cannot believe Frank is letting this happen. You're not raping him, are you?" Jamia blasted.
"Everything was consensual...that I know of." Gerard shrugged.
"You!!!" Jamia she yelled, frazzled.
"You're that Gerard, aren't you?!!" Jamia could not believe this.
Gerard looked confused, "What Gerard?"
"The one from the phone call? Where you jumped on Frank?" Jamia said, wondering how he forgot.
"Oh," he paused, "Yeah, I guess I am that Gerard..."
"He really liked you, you know? I thought he was kidding when he told me you're his teacher. I assumed you were a teacher aid." Jamia admitted.
"He liked me?" Gerard asked.
At the time, Gerard was still engaged, he had no idea Frank liked him when he was with Bert.
"Well, he never said he liked you, but I could hear it in his voice when he talked about you."
"That's good to know, but it wasn't like that all the time...our relationship never escalated to the sitcom lovers level." Gerard depressingly joked.
"What do you mean? You better not have fucking hurt him, please tell me you didn't hurt him..." Jamia pleaded.
"No, no, no...It was never like that. Something bad happened and we realized there was no hope for us, so he kicked me out after breaking up with me." Gerard explained before continuing, "It was my fault, I wasn't being good to him the way he deserved."
"So you're together again?"
"Well that's where it gets complicated..." Gerard sighs.
"From what I've heard, it sounds like you two are together." Jamia replied, trying to cheer him up.
Gerard nuzzled into his hand, looking out of the window, "I don't think we'll ever get back together..."
