“Where did you learn to dance?” Alicia asked curiously as Frankie took his place in my lap with his arms looped around my neck.

“I started when I was living on the streets. I was outside this club in the middle of a snowstorm and the manager came out, said that I was good looking and asked me if I could dance. He said he’d pay me if I danced in his club so he watched me do so, bought me some stage clothes and then BAM, I was a drag dancer in a gay club. If one of the rooms were free he’d let me sleep in there, and if he could find me some food he would, he didn’t have much himself though.” Frank explained, smiling softly.

“You should take it up again.” I suggested and he turned to face me, shocked.

“Really?” He asked quietly.

“Sure, it’s obvious that you enjoy it and I take it that it pays reasonably.” I said and he nodded.

“Not as good as the guitar teacher job at school. I couldn’t do it, Gee. I can’t go back to that, it’s too dangerous.” He said and I frowned.

“What do you mean, dangerous?” Mikey asked, stealing the words from my lips.

“I mean, I could be raped and killed a any given moment and incredibly easily. When I was on the streets I knew how to take it, I could fight and I could run. I had a knife on me all the time, whenever anyone tried anything, they’d get my blade. I wasn’t afraid back then, I knew it was all I had. I just won’t do that anymore, I’ve got used to food to eat and a bed to lie in, I’d be dead within two hours back on the club scene.” He said.

“Is it really that bad?” Alicia asked and he nodded.

“You’d be safer being a hooker.” He stated as fact.

“Hell.” Bob whispered, “I can’t believe you did that.” He said and Frank just shrugged.

“You’ve got to do what you’ve got to do.” He sighed, leaning his head against my chest. I knew that Frankie had been through a lot, and living on the streets was one thing but I’d never actually taken into consideration just how rough he’d had it. Real rough.

“I really should get going now, Elena will be worried.” Mom said eventually, before practically running out of the door.

“Bah, now I have to get out of these things, which isn’t very easy.” Frank said, pouting and rolling his eyes.

“If I help can I borrow some?” Alicia asked and Frank raised his eyebrows, but nodded.

“You can have anything out of that box there.” He said, pointing to the black box on the floor.

“But I’d rather you didn’t help me do this.” He said and she nodded as he waltzed off to the bathroom.

“You guys okay?” I asked.

“Of course, why wouldn’t we be?” Mikey asked and I shrugged.

“I’m going to screw this up, aren’t I?” I sighed, resting my head in my hands.

“What do you mean?” Ray asked and I groaned.

“Me and Frank. I don’t deserve him, he’s been through so much and he’s a better person for it. Not like me, I’m just a huge mistake.” I sighed, my insecurity coming out of no where and crashing over me.

“Gerard, don’t say that.” Ray said, putting an arm round me and I sighed, not sure where this mood swing had come from.

“I just…no matter what I do, I always feel like I’m going to mess it up. Say the wrong things, do the wrong things, I’m just…bah! I don’t even know!” I huffed, holding my pounding head in my hands.

“Gee, even if you did do or say something wrong, Frankie would forgive you, he wouldn’t care. He loves you, he really does. Without you he’d still be on the streets and feeling worthless. He’d probably be dead.” Mikey said and I scoffed.

“Excuse me Mr.Way, but I think that you were in fact the one who made friends with him.” I pointed out and Mikey shook his head.

“Look, we met when I was out one night and I talked to him, asked if he was alright. He said that he’d got a place at the college somehow and that he was looking for a roommate but not some dumb jock and I fit the bill. What you’ve done for him is a hell of a lot more than me, all I did was chuck him a couple of quid a month so he could pay rent while I lived in his apartment.” Mikey reasoned and I groaned, lying back on the floor and looking at the ceiling.

“HELLO MR WAY!” Frank screamed, jumping on me and straddling me…in no clothes.

“Hello Mr Iero. I think everyone else in the room would appreciate it if you’d put Iero junior away.” I said, and we both giggled as he nodded, standing up and walking to the dresser and pulling out a pair of hot pink boxers and slipping them on.

“I never knew hot pink was your kind of colour.” Mikey stated with a raised eyebrow.

“Mikey, how could you not know that when it took you less than three actual seconds to figure out I was gay when we first met?” Frank said, his hand on his hip. Good point, actually.

“Um, I dunno?” He said stupidly and Frankie giggled girlishly.

“Hmm, I wanna go to bed now.” I said, yawning and stretching.

“Okay, we’re gunna go watch movies in Mikey’s room.” Alicia said, and with that, everyone but Frankie said their goodnights and left.

“Hmm, do you want to go to sleep or…?” Frank smirked and I smiled, kissing him softly before feeling the drastic need to pee.

“Hmpf, I got to go pee.” I said, pulling away and walking into the bathroom. Hey…my periods stopped… strange. I thought nothing more about it and walked back into my room after washing my hands, suddenly incredibly tired.

“Frankie, I’m sorry, but I’m really, really tired.” I explained as I dropped my T-shirt and jeans to the floor and collapsed on the bed.

“Me too, that dancing lark is more tiring than I remember.” He laughed, snuggling down next to me in the dark, his head on my chest and hand on my stomach as we drifted into a soft sleep.
