“Frank” “Frank” “Frank”
She never really liked that name, shoot she isnt even comfortable being called a man, she sees herself as a woman, she prefers “Raine”, It sounds nicer plus its a more fem sounding name… right?
“Frank” Gee says to her, “Its time for the show, are you ready Frank?”
She looks at Gee with a sad face and hesitates for a
moment. “say….uhm…gee, you know how youre trans right, and you wanna be called gee and not gerard right…yeah so-“ Shes immediately interrupted “Look, you can tell me later, we’re short on time at the moment, cmon we’ve got a real big crowd out waiting for us” gee smiles at her, grabbing her hand leading her to the stage. “I know this isnt usual of me and i know this is My Chem, but i want you to open with a song of yours!” Raine looks at her. “S-sure i can do that…”
She has her guitar ready and walks up to the mic, shes nervous, she doesnt really like her voice but oh well, if itll make gee happy she’ll sing regardless. “Hello New Jersey! I-i uh im opening for you all, so here you go, this ones called Joyriding”
The instrumental begins to play, raine clears her throat before singing, she looks at the mic and her guitar “Im not sure what they saaaaiiddd, but if its true i’ll betttttt, just one more thing ill regretttt, i hate my weaknesses they made me who i am” The crowd sings along enthusiastically “Yeah its cool ill be okay! I felt your pain wash over me, I dry your eyes and hide my shakes” Raine smiles and confidentally “I hate the look thats on your face, these things inside my head,
they never make much sense”
after awhile the show finishes, Gee is sat on a couch exhausted from the performance, she stares out the window of the tour bus, two more weeks till their final show, she’s ready for it to be done, as fun as it was, it is pretty tiring. Raine looks at her with a nervous face. “Say, Gee remember that thing i was telling you about” she pauses waiting for her response “Yeah? whats up?” Raine hesitates again, “So uh as i was saying, you know youre trans, and wanna be called she, wanna be seen as a woman….” she says this one quickly “a very pretty in my opinion woman too” she hesitates once again “I uh, dont want to be called frank anymore, i feel uncomfortable with it, I want to be seen as a woman, I am trans, I am Raine now, I-i hope that isnt a bother or an issue to you…” Gee processes what Raine said, “Aw, Raine, thats a pretty name! I dont see any issue with that, if you’d like i can also tell the boys to call you that too” Raine turns red with excitement and mild flusteredness “Y-yeah! go ahead, i dont mind!” gee smiles at her, “You know, I caught that little compliment too, 'pretty woman’ huh? you really think im pretty Raine? Well, I think youre pretty too” Raine immediately looks down and holds back her happy squeaking sounds “no!!!” she denies, knowing very well its true “Thats not true! you are but im not, i look like a man! a dumb loser man!” gee gets up and sits next to raine “Nah, all i see is a cute butch, wanna see proof?” Gee then shows a picture she took of raine performing joyriding, shes smiling and having the time of her life in that picture. “Wah! When did you take that?!?!” Gee giggles “dont worry about it, but see thats my proof, i see a very happy and precious butch, not a loser man as you say, even though youre very much pre-transitioned, you’re already a very lovely looking woman, in fact..” gee then leans in to kiss raine, shes in shock but very accepting of this so much so she manages to lift herself into gee’s lap while still maintaining the kiss. “Oh? How’d you get up here” she says smugly, she grabs ahold of Raine’s waist keeping her in her lap “This doesnt bother you right? Im plenty dysphoric myself and dont want to go too far, but i also wanna make sure you’re okay too” gee smiles, “Im perfectly fine with this as much as you are” she then lays herself down with Raine still atop her. “You know, im happy you were comfortable telling me this, im sure it felt scary, just like how i felt when i first told you three i was transfeminine, i’m sure the other two wont mind you also being trans too” Raine kind of curls up into a fetal position on gee, feeling very happy that she’s okay with this, she feels seen and validated for once. gee looks at raine, seeing how she curled up on her and starts gently petting her head, Raine cant help but try and hide her face, she likes gee, she likes that she kissed her, she doesnt know what to feel aside from utter joy. “You know Raine, i thought i was straight for the most part, but you, i think you’ve made me gay!” she says jokingly “Really” Raine says looking up at her. “Yeah, you’re probably only girl ive actually found myself attracted to, funny enough even when i saw you as a guy, i was pretty attracted to you” Raine looks away again, she lets out a soft squeak. “That squeaking’s real cute you know” Raine lets out what could only be described as verbal keyboard spam “noooo its not cute at all!!” gee wraps her arms around raine “oh it is, my cute girl making squeaky sounds because shes flustered” Again verbal keyboard spam from raine. “see! it is cute!” Raine pouts and gives in to the affection “fine it is! you win!” gee smirks “see i told youuu, silly girl!”
Raine looks at gee, and she does the same “I love you gee” gee smiles “I love you too raine”
