Frank
“I’m sorry,” Mikey said walking over to me.
“It’s okay, just next time, don’t kiss me, sober or not!” I said. I love that Mikey kissed me, but I can’t have him knowing I have feelings for him, it’d destroy our friendship. Mikey didn’t even know that I was gay. I was a closet case.
I haven’t come out to a lot of people. Just my parents, and they are both fine with it, but what about the rest of the world? Not everyone is going to be fine with me being gay. And besides Mikey wasn’t gay, he had a girlfriend, that I’m sure he loved dearly, and I wasn’t going to let drugs ruin their relationship, just because he wanted to kiss me – he wasn’t thinking clearly. The drugs were clouding his mind.
I heard the door downstairs open, and realized my mom was home. Which meant Mikey was due home in 5 minutes. “Oh, shit, I have to go, my mom is gonna be pissed if I miss dinner,” Mikey yelled half way down the stairs. I didn’t want Mikey to leave, I missed him already, and he was only gone for 9 seconds.

The first thing I saw when I walked on school grounds the next day – Mikey swaying from side to side, whilst trying to walk over to me. It pained me to see him like this, I hated it. “Faunk, hat up, man?” Mikey slurred. If it wasn’t obvious, that he was high or drunk by the way he was walking, it was obvious by the way he talked. He couldn’t even speak right.
“Mikey, come with me,” I said grabbing him by his arm, and hurrying off of school grounds. “Mikey, why do you do this to yourself? Why must you get high, and drunk? I’m so tired of having to-,” Mikey cut me off by kissing me. This time I didn’t pull away, I kissed him back for a good while.
-Mikey’s POV-
Frank was yelling at me for always getting high and drunk and all I could think about was kissing him again. I could only think about my lips against him, so I cut him off by kissing him. I thought he’d push me away, the same way as yesterday, but instead he kissed back. Frank tangled his hands in my hair, and I wrapped my arms around his waist. If I felt high and drunk before then this must feel like heaven.
Slowly I pulled away to breath. “Wow,” Frank said as he pulled away too. “Want to come back to my house and we can watch movies?” I asked. I wasn’t just asking him to go to my house to make out with him; I really wanted to watch a movie.
“Sure,” Frank said.
We walked to my house in complete silence. It wasn’t an awkward silence, but it wasn’t a boring silence. We didn’t need to communicate with words to know what each other was feeling or thinking. I felt a vibration on my leg and started to laugh. “Haha, Frank, my, ha, leg is vibrating, haha,” I said.
“It’s your phone,” Frank said.
“Oh, phone?” I said tilting my head and looking at Frank with confusion. “Since when did I have a phone?” I asked.
“Oh, my god, just get the phone out of your pocket and give it to me,” Frank said.
“Yes, sir!” I said saluting, Frank giggling at me.
I got my phone out and handed to Frank. “It’s a text from Zulay, your girlfriend; she wants to know when you’ll be over her house,” Frank said to me.
“Err, just tell her tomorrow,” I said. “So, just pick a movie, and pop it in the DVD player,” I said as we walked in my house.
“Oh, let’s watch, Audition!” Frank said excitedly.
Frank put the movie in the DVD player and we both sat down on the couch to watch it.

The movie was over hours ago, Frank and I were playing video games. “Mikey, can I ask you a question?” Frank asked.
“Uh, yeah sure,” I said.
“When will you ever be sober?” he said.
“I am sober; I’m sober right now aren’t I?” I asked.
“Mikey, I’m talking about sober, as in no more pills, or alcohol,” Frank said.
“Am I not sober enough for you, right now?” I asked not looking at Frank. The next words that came out of Frank’s mouth shocked me.
“Not sober enough, and if you still want to be my friend, then I suggest you straighten up and get sober for good!” Frank yelled, and ran out the door.
“I’m sorry,” Mikey said walking over to me.
