Gerards P.O.V
We decided to go to Belleville park earlier then Vivian and Kyla said to be there. We were playing on the swings telling of our awkward childhood stories. Sylvia seemed time like to hear about how silly our childhood was, she would giggle and smile. It looked to me that this was one of Sylvia's rare good days, where she wouldn't get sad. 

"Hey, Gee- Remember when Miles was sick and we all pretended we were sick so Miles wouldn't have to stay home alone? Then we all ended up getting sick," Frankie asks laughing, almost choking on his orange crush soda.

I snort and say, "Yeah, Miles was sleeping most of the time and would throw pillows at us if we woke him so we all sat in the kitchen covering everything in post-it notes."

Brandon laughed and said, "Your mom was so fucking pissed when she came home!"

"Man, you're house was always fun when it was just us alone," Ryan says chuckling to himself.

Almost instantly I glance at Miles, he looks down at the ground with a distant look. He still remember what would happen when both parents were home. I open my mouth to say something and Sylvia instantly leans over and hugs him. She had a understanding look in her eye, she must've knew something happened to us.

"I got you another soda, Frank drank yours," Sylvia says giggling. She is playing it off as if she didn't notice his pained look, but at the same time she was showing him that she understood and he's not alone.

Miles' P.O.V

"Man, you're house was always fun when it was just us alone," Ryan says chuckling to himself.

Memories start pouring in, when they weren't there and it was just Gerard and me. I remember he'd yell and hit her. He was drunk most of the time, he didn't-. Sylvia's arms suddenly wrapped around me.

"It's over now, you're free," She quickly whispers in a grim tone, then smiles and cheerfully says, "I got you another soda, Frank drank yours." She giggled and handed me another soda. 

How had she known?

Gerard's P.O.V
At eight the girls arrived, they were dressed up in real revealing clothing.  Why were they so dressed up? "Hey Gee," Kyla says smiling. Did she not notice the guys?

"Hey...?" I say softly kinda confused. 

"Hel-lo ladies," Frankie says in that stupid perverted way.

Vivian laughs and says, "hey Frankie."
