"Bren, shut the fuck up!" I curl up in one of Brenden's living room chairs, placing the game controller down in defeat.
"Ryan broke my bathtub." I stare at Brendon.
"How the hell-"
"Let's just say it involved milk." I give him a blank expression.
"Kinky stuff." Gerard pipes up.
"Shut up."
"What's got your panties in a twist Frankie?"
"Don't call me that Gerard."
"What, only Kelsey can call you that?"
"Shut up Bren!"
"Frankie and Kelsey sitting in a tree. K I S S-"
"Brendon Fucking Uri, I will castrate you."
"Ryan will protect me."
"Or just break your bathtub."
"Well he already broke it so it couldn't get much worse..."
"That's it. I'm leaving." Gerard and Brendon look at me in shock.
"Yeah to go find Kelsey," Mikey mutters from his corner.
"You go Mikey!"
"Ugh!" I walk out of the living room, then out of the house, slamming the door behind me. At least I closed the goddamn door. I start wandering the neighborhood, not noticing where my feet are carrying me.
"FRANK IERO YOU SHOULD BE IN BED!" I turn to see an angry Kelsey stalking towards me.
"Umm.."
"You are going back home." Kelsey grabs my arm and starts dragging me in the direction of my house.
"But-"
"But nothing." I remain silent the rest of the way, it's only a couple minute walk. When we get to my door Kelsey glares at me, and then waits for me to unlock the door. As soon as I do she feels my forehead. "You still have a fever. You should be sleeping it out.
"But Brendon made me come over."
"And how did he make you?" Kelsey uses air quotes around the word make.
"He threatened me."
"And how did he do that?"
"He said Ryan would break my bathtub if I didn't come over."
"I'm not gonna question that."
"That's probably a smart decision."
"You know what else would be a smart decision?"
"What?"
"Going back to bed."
"Fine."
"It wasn't a request." I trudge to my room, ignoring the ugly peeling orange paint on the hallway. I collapse on my bed face first, Kelsey sitting next to me.
"Goodnight Frankie."
"Night California." I feel Kelsey freeze next to me. Then she gets up and starts to walk away. "Wait I shouldn't of said that! I'm sorry!" Kelsey leaves, not giving me a chance to say anything. "Damn it."
