You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In High School
You Left My Heart An Open Wound
MIKEYS POV
I sat tapping my pencil against my desk. There was about fifteen minutes of class left until lunch but I couldn't sit much longer. I was in biology and I hadn't spoken to Jennifer once as I was still upset about the other night. I really liked her, I couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed.
"Ok, for the remainder of the class I will let you and whoever you are sitting with talk about your own opinions on cloning" The teacher called out and sat down at his desk.
Brilliant. The rest of the class had began chatting among themselves.
"Mikey, about last night," Jennifer had closed her books and faced herself towards me, "I really regret it, I was stupid for doing that." She sighed waiting for me to reply.
I looked back at her, "You're only saying that now because you know who he really likes." I sighed.
"He told you?" she asked bluntly.
"We tell each other everything, we're brothers" I confirmed. "Why are you even saying sorry?" I asked confused.
"Well, you obviously don't want to talk to me anymore" she said with upset eyes.
"It's fine, You obviously liked Gerard there's nothing wrong with that." I sighed, "You can't help who you fall for." I looked at her, oh the irony.
"Thats it though," She sighed." I thought I liked him but i had really only just spoken to him for a short time" She looked at the clock then back at me.
"If I tell you something, would you promise to keep it a secret?" She asked me.
"I promise" I smiled back at her, the fact that she trusted me made me feel a little better.
"The week before I met you, I had found out my boyfriend had cheated on me with this girl at some party. We got into a huge fight and I left him. We had been planning on going to the same college and moving in together. Then out of the blue he did that to me," Her eyes began to fill with tears, "Then I met you and I didn't really think you would care about me either, then when i spoke to Gerard, i don't know this feeling of need came over me, i didn't want him i just wanted someone to want me. Then when he blurted Franks name i realized he didn't want me either." She had tears rolling down both her eyes now. I could see exactly what she meant now and i felt horrible.
"You didn't need to explain yourself!" I told her and pulled her into a cuddle. "I do care about you, Your ex was a dick, not all guys are like that you know" i said as i held her tighter. As i pulled her away i realized the whole class was staring, including the teacher.
"Take a fucking picture, it will last longer" I called and everyone looked away, everyone apart from the teacher. He had walked over to our desk now.
"Mikey, you cannot use that language in this class" he warned me then turned to Jennifer, "Are you okay, You can always speak to me if you need someone to confide in" He smiled trying to calm her.
"Its okay now" she smiled back. He gave me one last glare and walked off.
"Well class, another lesson done. Remember to work on your assignments" He called and sat back down in his seat.
GERARDS POV
Fuck, the bell had rang indicating that it was time for lunch. Or for me time to be beaten to a pulp. I looked to Frank, He seemed just as nervous as me.
"You don't need to do this, Gee" he pleaded.
"It's fine, a few punches here and there and it will all be over, I promise i'll be okay" I attempted to calm him down.
"You might believe that yourself, but I don't." he grunted back at me. He was wrong, I didn't even believe it.
"Look, just go have lunch with Ray, Bob and Mikey." I smiled, "I'll see you after school."
"You promise?"
"I promise." I said, I would have gave him a kiss there and then but people were watching us. I Felt like i was about to receive my own execution, i shuddered the thoughts away reminding myself it would be over soon.
"Give 'em hell, kid" Frank said not sounding too confident. He then placed his hand on my shoulder, I could tell he wanted to kiss just as much as I did. He sighed as he turned around then began to walk away.
"Fuck" I muttered under my breath as I watched his figure fade.
