GHOST

While Frank was gone I didn't know what to do. I felt alone and uneasy, I ignored it and decided to just go inside my apartment. The next ten minutes I listened to The Smashing Pumpkins and sat on the couch drawing. Drawing mindlessly was something I rarely did but now I'm doing it. I heard the CD stop and I look at the player. I grabbed the Misfits album and traded out the CDs and sat back down and looked at what I've drawn. Oh geez Gee, you can't stop thinking about him. Can you? I thought to myself as I looked at the drawing of Frank.

Suddenly I felt my phone vibrate, I reached for the phone and answered. "Hello?"

"Hey Gee, you want hang tonight? I got tickets to watch a band tonight and I didn't know who to bring." Mikey's voice echoed throughout the line.

"Sure, when is the concert at?"

"It is at 7:00, is that a good time?"

"Yeah...actually I have nothing to do right now. Do you want to get some lunch?"

"Oh my fuck, yeah man! Oh, can I take my girlfriend with?" I could here the happiness in Mikey's voice. Wait did he just say girlfriend?

"You have a girlfriend?!" I asked, sounding very happy.

"Yes, oh my fuck you have to meet her! So can I?"

"Of course you can!" I exclaimed, most likely causing Mikey to back away from the phone.

"Alright, cool! Oh, and uhh we're already walking down town so do you want to meet at Starbucks. We're literally like down the street from your apartment."

"Okay, let me get some of my things and I'll be there. Okay?"

"Okay, see you later. Got to go to the record shop. Bye."

"Bye." I hung up the phone and grabbed my wallet and keys. I put those and the phone in my pocket.

I walk out the door and make my way to Starbucks. The table I usually sat at was taken by a couple, they looked very cute. I looked for an empty booth and found one. As I took my seat I saw the bartender from the other coffee shop. Did he work at two places? Then I looked back at the door as I heard the door's bell ring, it was Mikey and a girl. Holding hands.

"Gee!" Mikey waved and I waved back. He ran to the table and took the girl with him. She was wearing a pair of dark blue jeans and a white t-shirt with a black cardigan. I smiled at them as they sat down.

"Heya Mikes." I smiled.

"Hey Gee, okay. So, this is Kristin." He gestured to the girl, she smiled.

"Hi." I reached out my hand for her to shake it.

"Hi." She took my hand.

"Okay, well I'm going to get us coffee. Then we can talk. Okay?" Mikey said as he held a really big smile. Boy, I haven't seen that in a while.

"Okay." Kristin and I replied in unison.

"So, how long have you been dating?" I asked, looking back at Kristin.

She smiled, "For about four months."

"So, since the beginning of the school year?"

"Yeah pretty much."

"Oh wow, how long have you known each other?"

"Five months."

"That's cool."

"Yeah." She chuckled.

"Yeah, what got you guys to start dating?"

"Well, I guess a close friend. He wanted us to meet and we did. We both liked each other at the start but we didn't know. Until Mikey came up to me and asked if I wanted to go on a date and yeah. Here we are, dating." She smiled with a light pink shade across her cheeks.

"That's adorable. I'm glad he has found someone but he never told me about you guys."

"I guess the subject just slipped. He told your parents."

"Oh, okay."

"Alrighty kids. So, I got our stuff. It shouldn't take long." Mikey came into our conversation before things got awkward.

"Alright, what did you get?" I asked.

"I got us a some food." Mikey smiled.

"You forgot didn't you?" Kristin asked.

"Yeah." Mikey answered.

"Good job Mikey."

"You had one job."

"I know, I know."

"Mikey!?" We overheard a yell from the barista. We turned our heads and there the barista was.

"There's the food." Mikey said, in a very excited tone.

"I'll help you get it."

"Okay, Kristin you good sitting here?"

"Yeah, I'll be fine."

"Okay." Mikey smiled and Kristin gave him a smile.

Mikey and I walked towards the barista. He smiled at us and we smiled back. There was tray with a few pastries and a breakfast bagel thing. Then there was a cup holder with our drinks, I grabbed the cup holder and Mikey had the tray. Fuck that was a lot of food.

"Fucking hell Mikey, have you eaten at all today?"

"No, we left the dorm and forgot to eat. So, we're both hungry. Are you?"

"Nah, I already ate."

"Okay." Mikey laughed.

"I'm telling the truth."

"I know, but it's funny because you barely eat breakfast."

"I know."

When we got to the table, we ate. I finished early considering that I had a little to eat. I watched the two lovebirds eat in delight. Then when they finished we sat at the table for another hour finishing our drinks. We talked about our lives and what we've been up to. The next thing we knew we were waiting in line for the concert. I didn't know who was playing, Mikey had my ticket but he said he's a big fan and that he knew the band. Like personally. He also said they're really good, and that I'd think the singer would be pretty hot. I laughed at his comment because the only singer I thought was hot would be Frankie.

"Alright, the doors open in a few. Are you guys ready?" Kristen smiled.

"Yes! I'm so fucking excited. Gerard I bet you ten bucks that you'll love this band."

"I bet you I will because knowing you Mikey having a really great music taste I bet I will."

We stood in line patiently until a guy came out and told everyone the doors were going to be open. Then security guards came out and told us to give them our tickets. Mikey gave both of our tickets to the guard and Kristin did too. We walked in and we stood close to the stage but we weren't right by it but close enough to meet my standards.

After waiting for about ten minutes, a band came in. "Is this them?" I asked Mikey.

"Nah, this is the opening band, they'll be playing next." He said.

I made an 'O' shape with my mouth and turned my face to the band. The band started to play and withing ten seconds the crowd went fucking crazy.
