'Cause You Stop The Noise.

"Alright Frank, down it."

I rolled my eyes, "You first."

He smiled, "Well I'm already trashed."

"Fine."

I took a swig from the can and spit it out. "This is fucking disgusting."

"Drink the rest, you'll get used to it."

I sighed and did as Gerard told. I learned at a young age that you don't disobey an alcoholic.

"Are we just going to walk around on the streets?"

Gerard laughed, "Welcome to my life, Frank."

"Are they going to call the police?"

"Well I'm sure that shift change is almost over.. And they wake us up at 8 for breakfast. So if they don't call soon they'll call in the morning for sure. Or they'll come looking for us."

He put his arm around my wasit, "It's going to be fine. You said your mom won't miss you, right?"

I nodded, "What about your family?"

"I doubt they'll miss me, Frank."

"I'd miss you."

"You'll forget about me eventually."

Gerard looked back.

"What?"

"See that garbage bin? Hide behind it, Frank."

"Why?"

"Police."

"I don't hear anything.."

"You will."

I hid behind the garbage bin and Gerard followed.

He get close to my ear and whispered, "Be quiet. They may not be looking for us but I'm sure that we can get in deep shit for public intoxication or some shit."

"I'm not intoxicated."

"I am"
