I should have never been driving

I was shocked to find Gerard here. he's unstoppable. He took a real beating today and when I found him he could barley stand up without help. I can see he's in a serious amount of pain, he's gone a completely new shade of pale. I wish I knew how to help him but as soon as I mentioned the word doctor he flinched and shrugged all of the pain off like nothing was wrong. He likes to think no one can see behind those walls.
Swinging my guitar strap off over my head I jumped down off stage to get a drink from the bar and hang out with Gerard, Ray and Mikey over in the corner. I ordered two tequila shots which I downed as quickly as I could and made my way over to the table. Sitting down next to Gerard I leaned over, making out I had something to tell him.. quickly pulling the cigarette from behind his ear and putting it to my lips "Hey! dude, you could have asked" Gerard giggled holding one hand to his abdomen "oh, that was rude of me. can I have this cigarette that I ever so swiftly stole from behind your ear?" I said in a childish voice batting my eyelashes at him. "its yours" Gerard said, a smile creeping onto his face.
I lit the cigarette, Ray's dad doesn't mind, just as long as we don't start a fire. I leaned back, resting my head on the back of the seat taking a long drag and exhaling slowly. "so,what'd you guys think?" I said looking over at everyone at the table. "awesome as ever" Ray spoke up from nursing his beer. "yeah... awesome" Mikey chipped in. I looked over to Gerard waiting for a reply when I realized he was day dreaming. "Gerard?.. you in there?" I said nudging him ever so slightly "oh. what?...yeah, what did I miss?" Gerard said with a sigh. "he does that a lot" Mikey said sipping on his lemonade "ah.. I see" was all I could think to say without making a sarcastic comment and making myself look like a complete ass.
"Where do you go Gerard?" I said softly, moving closer. "just in my head.. you know." Gerard said. He looked tired, but not the sleepy kind. The worn down kind... like hes been running marathons his entire life. "wanna get out of here?" I said after a long pause. Ray and Mikey nodded and shuffled out of their seats. Gerard just looked at me and smiled giving me his hand to help him up, I took his hand and lightly pulled him up keeping close by just in case he fell.
"lets go to Jefferson's, I left some liquor in the back, we can get it on the way out" Ray said leading us to the exit. Jefferson's is a skate park where some of the kids from school go to get stoned, me and Ray hang out there sometimes. Not so much to get high but to watch the guys in the year below us get stoned and try and wrestle one another. Its better than the discovery channel if you ask me. Ray took two bottles of liquor and pushed the emergency exit door open and descending down the spiral steps. each one of us following behind.
Its really cold out but no doubt there will be a fire at the skate park. When we were kids our parents wouldn't let us out past a certain time in the evening because there is quite a lot of gang related crime in this part of New Jersey. but aside from the occasional murder and drive by its a pretty chilled place. When we finally got the Jefferson's we went to sit underneath one of the skate ramps, near the fire he stoners lit.
Mikey and Ray were off in there own little world talking about comic books and video games and I couldn't help but notice Gerard shivering like crazy. I pulled his scarf up around his neck properly and took off my jacket and wrapped it around his shoulders "better?" I whispered "mhhm" Gerard nodded and leaned in putting his head on my shoulder "thank you for rescuing me earlier" he said, his breathing hitched. "don't mention it" I said quietly "if only I had of gotten there five minutes sooner" I mumbled before taking a swig from Ray's liquior bottle. It tasted like fire dancing on my tongue. "Frank?" Gerard in a hushed tone, "im in denial arent I?" and with that I leaned in and placed a kiss on his lips.
"oh, definitely " I snorted Licking my lips as if I could taste his denial. He laughed quietly and leaned in and planted a kiss on my cheek "My hero" he giggled
"You owe me a 20" Mikey said to Ray. "awhh, man..." Ray groaned "quit whining and pay up" Mikey snorted. "whats going on" I asked, a tad confused. "we had a bet to see how long it would take for you guys to gay up the place... Mikey said by the end of today and now im down 20 bucks, if you guys had just gayed up the place tomorrow then you wouldn't be buying me lunch tomorrow" Ray said sipping at his liquor with dumb ass grin on his face.
