Friday 22nd March 2013.

"And a bip! And a bop! And the cupcakes are done!"

I looked round at James who smiled at my stupidity. We were in the kitchen, of course, and had just finished baking, the smells of heaven mingling around the place.

"You know James..." I whispered moving closer to him, a cupcake in my hand. I stopped for a split second, "would you like a cupcake..." I held it to his lips and he smiled before eating the entire thing in one mouthful. Haha. Silly little James. My silly little James.

Now... Don't ask me how we ended up with our lips pressed against one another and our hands on each others waists. Because I don't really know how it happened. It just did, okay? But it was perfect non the less: to feel his skin pressed against mine and our hearts beating as one. Yeah, um, did anyone else in the band know about us? Well we hadn't told anyone although it wouldn't take Sherlock to figure it out.
We continued sharing each others warmth and love until I heard the click of the door. I quickly moved my face away from James' as a sleep-deprived looking Gerard wondered into the Kitchen. James noticed too and removed his hands from my waist.

There seemed to be a split second in which mine and Gerard's eyes connected; his looking neither disappointed, surprised or happy. I snapped out of my trance and grabbed James' hand.

"Um.... Nothing to see here...." I muttered as I dragged him past Gerard, picking up the tin of fresh baking.
I thought I heard Gerard mutter something but I'm not sure. Must of been going to get coffee. Well, he probably wouldn't tell the others, though they probably already knew.

Anyway, me and James went and sat in the living room with Mikey who was watching some anime. Something to do with this book and if you write someone's name then they die or something, but Mikey wasn't paying too much attention.
James lay his head on me. Perfect. Honestly perfect. The only thing that could make it more perfect...... I took another cupcake and ate it, the sprinkles jumping down onto my top and a few of the little rainbows blended into James' hair.

Gerard wondered back into the room, probably complaining about something again. Bless his little cotton socks: he does work really hard, like, but to be honest we all do. I tried to cheer him up by offering him some food.

"um, I'm fine thanks Ray... I'll pass on the cupcakes." He replied.

Okay, well fair enough gee. You are what you eat. So where's all this sassy food that Gerard eats come from? Good question. I decided to be kind and offer Mikey some as well.

"Mikes?" I asked.

"What?" He sounded confused.

"Cupcake?" I asked holding one up.

"Oh...yeah...course" He replied so I threw it in his general direction.

I felt James stir a little, his head moving from me a little and the pressure decreasing. He seemed concerned about something. And then he spoke:

"Franks been acting a little strange lately. I wondered wether he's okay? Has anything upset him or made him nervous recently!?"

To be honest, James was right. I hadn't talked to Frank in a while as he was always cooped away in his little room. I'm not sure whether he had eaten in the past few days and when you did speak to him he seemed down and distant; not anything like the Frank that we know. Of course. I booped James on the nose. Why? Well because I felt like it. Is that okay with you?
Gee seemed especially worried and dragged himself back up the stairs to go and check on him. That left me James and Mikes sat together.

-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—

I didn't notice at first. I didn't notice Mikey staring at me. But he did. He just stared and stared, his brain ticking over as he did so. Still his eyes locked to mine, not even flinching. What the heck Mikey? Was he even conscious that he was staring at me? Or was he just staring into space and that I just happened to be in the way?
He finally finally snapped out of his trance, shaking his head with his eyes all squinched up.

"Guys... There's something that I must tell you....." He muttered nervously.

"Yeah....okay Mikes?" I tried my best to comfort him.

"We won't tell, we'll understand" James supported.

"Well okay then..... I'll tell you....." He replied his eyes flicking down to the floor to avoid eye contact and to avoid witnessing our reactions. "But you have to PROMISE to never mention this to Frank! Okay?!"
Me and James looked at each other and then back at Mikes, "yeah of course."

"Okay..." He began, "well the thing is tha-"

He was cut of by a scream coming from upstairs, more precisely coming from Franks room. The scream definitely belonged to Gee. Holy heck! What on Earth was happening up there?! I jumped to my seat instantly and rushed out of the room. I was scared, what if something had happened to Frank? What if he was ill? What if he wasn't there? What if he was....(I hate to say it)...dead?
But then I heard laughing and giggling. Ah, okay. I get it Gee and Frank. You're fine, absolutely fine. And Franks fine after all nothing to worry about.

They tumbled down the stairs a few minutes later and all three of us headed back into the living room. Smiles were spread from ear to ear on the pair who stood close together in the centre of the room. Something had happened. Frank's dull and tired eyes had disappeared and been replaced with bright excited ones. And Gee looked as though he was about to cry.

"And????!" I slurred my question.

"What's happening?" Asked Mikes.

"Come on.... Tell us....." Prodded James.

"You can't keep it a secret for much longe-"

"ME AND FRANK GO OUT!!!!!" Yelled Gerard excitedly before smashing his face into Franks.
We all looked stunned, but non more than Mikey. His eyes widened and he stared at his older brother menacingly. I could see the anger building up inside of him not long until-

He jumped from his seat and stormed out of the room, slamming the front door of the house shut as he ignored the protests from Gee and Frank. But Mikes was gone. Why?

I smiled at the couple who were hugging in the middle of the room. "Congrats guys..."

Notes

Ta-da! Chapter 3! As ever thank you for reading.
Not sure when next chapter will be up, like probably Tuesday/Wednesday.(I apparently have to socialise) Just thought I'd say that if you celebrate Christmas then.....merry Christmas! And I hope you have a good time but.... Don't eat so much food that you explode: just a little tip there. And if you don't celebrate Christmas then I hope at you have a good holiday from school/work. :) thanks. Xx
