     "George Ross III, please report to the office."

Really? What the Hell did Ryan do this time?

"Brendon Urie?"

"Here."

I kind of hated having my name close too last, mainly because I couldn't just get attendance over with, and if I mess something up or say something stupid instead of that simple word, it would be easier to remember than having it earlier on during attendance.

     "Gerard Way?"

     No answer.

"Dallon Weekes?"

"Hey."

"Pete Wentz?"

"Here."

"Otto Wood?"

"Here."

"Would anyone like to take this to the office for me?" The substitute asked.

I shot my hand up before even the teachers pet could do anything. "Um, I could do it for you." I offered.

"Is it because your boyfriend just got called up there?" Someone called out from the back of the room. People began to snicker.

"Maybe I just wanna do something good for once." I rolled my eyes and stood up. I made my way towards the front. "Thank you, sir." The substitute smiled at me and handed me the attendance sheet. "Yep." I nodded before walking out.

Truth be told, it really was because Ryan was up there. All I wanted was to know what Ryan did.

"Hey Urie."

I turned around.

"Hey, Gee. You have a thing for calling people by their last names?" I chuckled. "Nah, just a mix of a habit and a preference." He shrugged. "Why are you out here?" He asked. I held the paper up. "Wow, never would I ever think Brendon Urie would do something for a teacher." He smiled.

"It's only to know why Ryan got called up there." I told him.

"Why do you want to know about that so badly? Can't you do it after class?"

"It also gives me an excuse to get out of class."

"Huh, I never thought of that. I should do that."

"You don't even go to class anymore, well, at least this class." I laughed. "Well, maybe I'll go today." He shrugged.

"You won't."

"I will."

"Alright, come with me to the office so we can tell them that you're actually here," I raised the paper up, "if they ask or if the substitute asks, tell them you were in the bathroom."

We began to walk to the office.

"How long have you and Ryan been friends for?" Gerard asked.
