Please....
I need him more than he needs me. I guess he hasn't realized that, 'cause he still isn't back.
"I need you" That's all I said before I hung up the phone. It was the fifth message I sent him. I was sorry, but apparently he didn't care.
"Eric" I banged on the door to his apartment.
"Go away."
"No I'm not going away 'til you fucking talk to me."
"There's nothing left to say Gerard."
"Yes there is. And It needs to be said now."
"Just go home Gerard."
"I'm not leaving 'til you talk to me."
I sat outside Eric's apartment for at least an hour. When I saw Eric walk out I immediately stood up.
"Please just talk to me."
"I'm sorry. I just- I just can't right now Gee."
"Well you need to."
"Gee just g-go ok-kay"
"Why are you stuttering like that. Are you alright."
Eric began to shake and I pulled him in a tight hug. He started shaking. "I'm just s-so s-scared Gee" Tears began to swell in his eyes. "I'm scared for you Gee."
"Don't be." I said as I hugged him tighter. I led him back into his apartment and we sat on the couch.
I tried to calm him down. We sat there and watched re-runs of Friends until Eric fell asleep in my arms. I lied down next to him gently so I didn't wake him. I hugged him. I kissed his cheek quietly and soon fell asleep with Eric in my arms.
