Frank's P.O.V.
The whole day went by so fucking slow it should have been a world record.
I was intensely watching the clock count down to the last minute.
2:34
Our school let out at 2:40.
I was hoping to get Gerard to hang out with me today. I probably should text him first but, eh. And I had some news to tell him that he'd probably enjoy, that Bert guy got caught pushing a kid around and got suspended.
(Quick A/N: Idk if I mentioned this earlier but nothing against Bert in real life I actually think he's really cool he's a good person! Okie byee!)
2:36
Maybe I should text him. If I wait I'm probably going to forget and them miss him by like a second. That's usually the way it works.
2:37
Yeah... I'll do that...
I pulled out my phone, hiding it under the desk. I unlocked it and went to my contacts, going to Gerard's name.
'Can you meet me at the school gates??' -F
I put it away and looked at the clock again.
2:39
UGH! That last fucking minute always seemed to drag by the longest.
I felt my phone buzz and pulled it out, repeating the previous action.
'You're lucky I was already playing on my phone. Or I wouldn't have checked that. Yeah, I guess so.' -G
The bell finally rang and I grabbed my bag, sliding my phone back into my pocket and walking out of the class.
As I had suspected, I didn't see him in the corridors. Glad I did text him. I walked out the main double doors, seeing Gerard waiting by the gate.
I walked up to him, saying hey.
"Hi. So what did you need?" He said staring at the ground.
I noticed he never really looks at me, eye-to-eye.
"Um... I just wanted to ask you if I could maybe walk you home?"
Nice fucking job Frank, Way to be weird!
"I guess." He said quietly.
He started walking away,- wait. What the hell did I- oh yeah... I was going to walk him home. Point fucking two, Jesus.
I caught up with him, walking in his pace.
We were walking in an awkward silence. We had been walking for about five minutes now, I figured he wouldn't strike up conversation.
"So... I wanted to tell you something." I said awkwardly.
He gave me his attention by looking over to me for about two seconds, then looking back at the ground.
"It looks like you won't have to put up with Bert for another week. I heard that he got suspended." I said. He breathed a sigh of relief, closing his eyes.
I looked at him confused. "Gerard... Can I ask what he does. Like what did you do to make him not like you?"
"He doesn't bully me that often."
I noticed he doesn't talk much, Mikey said it was because he didn't really know me that well.
I hope that's the reason.
"I didn't ask that."
I looked down at the ground trying to decide what to say next, but was interrupted from that by the black haired boy next to me.
"Why?"
I looked back at him, confusion written all over my face.
"Come again?"
"Why did you choose to walk me home? I'm not like trying to be rude or anything it's just-.... New, I guess."
He got quieter as he finished that sentence.
"I guess I just want to get to know you a bit more. You seem like a fun person to be around, even if you are shy." I stated.
It wasn't a complete lie, but it's not like I could be like 'Yeah I just thought you were hot as the sandy desert'.
Well.
I could but that would be rude and a little weird?
He furrowed his eyebrows and looked down like he was deep in thought.
I wonder what he was thinking about...
I mean I could just always read his fucking thoughts.
But I didn't want to do that too much, just when I couldn't resist. Or sometimes I would do it out of boredom.
"Why are you looking at me?" He asked, still looking down.
"Sorry I just um- was looking at your hair. It looks cool to me." I said, looking down to try and hide the heat in my cheeks.
"It's literally just flopping around."
I shrugged. "Doesn't Mikey walk hom with you?" I asked after realizing in fact Mikey wasn't with us.
He sighed quietly. "He and Ray have this weird nerd meet up after school alot, he's going to start walking home with him he says."
The rest of the walk was spent on silence, until we got to his house and I noticed something.
"Hey... I live two streets away from here. It's not even a ten minute walk." I stated smiling as I realized I could probably visit him at his house in the future.
"Really? You mean over on Bluecott?"
( I don't even know why... Just came up with it.)
I nodded, my smile never leaving.
I saw his lips twitch into a small smile I could tell he was trying to hide.
"Cool. I gotta go, I'll see you tomorrow Frankie." He said, turning around to leave.
"Wait-" I started as he turned his head so he could see me. "Do you mind if I maybe walk with you tomorrow to school?" I asked. I hoped I wasn't being like needy or pushy or anything.
"Sure, I mean we kinda head the same way anyways so I don't see why not." We exchanged smiles before he disappeared behind his front door. I involuntarily grinned and began my walk to my house.
He called me Frankie.
The only person who ever did that was my mom, I don't know why him saying it impacted me so much. But I liked the way it rolled off his tongue.
Yeah, yeah,
I know I sound girly. I like the way he talks.
Sue me.
I turned into the curb to my street, totally not almost dieing on my foot. I made my way down a few houses until I made it to mine, opening the door and trying to sneak into my room.
"Frankie?" I heard my mom ask. I froze and slowly turned towards her.
"Yea, ma."
"I need your help with dinner so... Get the fuck in here." She raised her eyebrows at me as she turned on her heel.
I breathed a laugh at her sarcastic like behaviour.... And she wonders where I get it from.
