*Gerards pov* *trigger warning* (A/N: this is like one of my fav pics of Gee) 
                          
I walked into the lunch room and saw Frank sitting alone again. I started walking towards him when Brendon suddenly called my name. Dang it I wanted to sit with Frank. I brought my tray over to the table and sat next to Brendon. Hayley and Pete were whispering about something but suddenly stopped when I sat my tray down. 
                          
We started making some small talk but of course they had to change the subject to Frank. 
                          
"Look at him sitting alone over there"
                          
"I know right no one wants to sit with him"
                          
"What's so bad about him?" I asked, bad move.
                          
"Um well he's very gay and emo af so if you want the gay emo disease then go sit with him" Hayley snapped. 
                          
"What's wrong with being gay or emo? He's just different than you no big deal we are all different" I tried to stick up for him but that was another bad move.
                          
"What's wrong with it? There's so much wrong if you care about him so much then leave and go sit with him! And don't come crying back to us when you realize you made a mistake!" Hayley was starting to get mad.
                          
"Ok ok fine sorry" I really did want to leave that table I wanted to sit with him but I didn't want to let her win. 
                          
The rest of lunch went fine no one mentioned Frank again for the rest of the period. The rest of the school day was boring as always except for music. Frank had shown us the lyrics he wrote and the guitar to go with it. The other guys worked on the parts for their instruments as Frank wrote more lyrics, the song was coming along well.
                          
I was the last one out of the classroom that day and when I went into the hallway I saw Brendon and his buddies making a circle around Frank. As I got closer I could see Brendon holding Franks arm in the air for everyone for see that his sleeve had rolled down his arm revealing red marks running along the length of his wrist. 
                          
"Looks like the emo cut himself again" everyone laughed, Frank had tears in his eyes, I was disgusted but not with Franks arm no I was disgusted by Brendon. 
                          
"Aw don't cry you little crybaby save that for your bathroom later" he laughed, tears started slowly spilling out Franks eyes. Brendon let go and pushed him to the ground. 
                          
"Go cut yourself again" a brief pause as he thought about what to say next "no don't do that go do us all a favor and kill yourself" Brendon kicked Franks side. He scrambled up off the ground and ran past them, past me. I turned to run after him. 
                          
"Why are you going after the emo?" Brendon laughed.
                          
"Because what you did was wrong Brendon your so rude Frank did nothing to you why don't you just leave him alone" and with that I was out the door running after the sad boy.
