Frank's POV:
Mikey was certainly right about one thing, this band was awesome. I was really glad that I had been dragged along. I kept sneaking looks at the bassist as well. I don't know what it was about her, but she just seemed so unique and interesting that I had to look every so often. Finally at the end of one of their songs called "Cut Me Up, I'm Pretty As Pie," I looked around the room to see where the guys were. I noticed Ray was still hanging out in the crowd with Will and Hayley. I turned slightly to look and see where Gee was. He was still in the same place as well, standing by the bar, drink in hand. I realised something new about him though. At first I couldn't quite place what it was but then I realised he couldn't take his eyes off the bright pink haired lead singer. I smiled. He wasn't the only one who had his eye on someone in the band. I carried on looking around the room for Mikey, but I couldn't see him. I walked over to Gerard. "Hey, you seen Mikey?" I asked.
"Yeah, he went outside about 15 minutes ago," he replied.
"Ah, ok, thanks man."
I started walking to the door, deciding it was probably best to see that he was ok. As I got closer to the door I could hear the pouring rain coming down outside. I suddenly got worried about Mikey. I didn't want to waste any more time thinking so I quickly opened the door, stepping outside, and shocked by the freezing cold rain. Almost as soon as I stepped outside I saw Mikey standing there, facing the wall, his head leaning up against the bricks.
"Mikey?" He turned his head to face me, so I knew it was him.
"Oh, sorry, I was gonna come back in a minute," he murmured.
"Hey, it's cool, we were just wandering where you went. Where's that Lilah girl?" I asked, curious to get to the bottom of why he had spent so long outside. "She went home... Things just didn't go according to plan," he said, shifting his whole body round and pushing himself off the wall. He started walking back inside when I stopped him. "What do you mean? I thought you guys were getting on really well." I realised that it was obviously to do with that fact things hadn't gone to plan. "Although you don't have to talk about it right now if you don't want to, we can always save it for tonight when we get back or something," I added, not wanting to pressure him too much. "No, I'm ok to talk about it… things just happened... I fell for her, to be perfectly honest, I've never met anyone like her before, she seemed completely amazing."
"What happened then?" I asked, trying to understand the situation.
"She said it was the same with her, but she said it would never work and then she left… she just walked away like it was nothing," He shifted awkwardly on his feet, looking down. I left a pause before I spoke again.
"You can see why she did it though," I said, moving closer to him to check he was alright. "I mean, she lives thousands of miles away."
"That's exactly what she said…" He looked down at his feet again. I couldn't carry on seeing him like this so I stepped forward and just wrapped my arms around him in a tight hug. "I'm sorry man… It'll end up good though, yeah," I said, moving back again.
"Yeah, I suppose it's all going to work out," he said, giving me a small smile. I felt a little more relieved, knowing that Mikey would know what to do from now. "Come on, let's go back inside, yeah?" I said, guiding him with one of my hands.
"Thanks Frankie," he said, looking into my eyes.
"It's ok, just know that I'm always here for you. All us guys are," I said to him, giving him a smile. "I know," he said, his smile getting bigger, reassuring me even more. With that we both walked back inside, bracing ourselves for the noise that would hit us when we got in there.
