"Mikey..." Gerard wondered downstairs, to see Mikey pick at his breakfast, looking tired after spending another night comforting Gerard after his nightmares. You'd think there mother would do it, but she was at work all the time so she could provide food for the two boys and pills for Gerard.

"What's up Gee?" Mikey yawned at him. He was so tired he hadn't noticed Gerard was fully dressed.

"Um... Can I... um... Go to school today?" he asked timidly. Mikeys head snapped up, he looked Gerard in the eye, making Gerard gnaw nervously at the loose skin on his fingers.

"Your... Your going to go to school?" Mikey asked, a slight smile picking at his voice. Frank must of done this.

"Um... Yeah... If-if I'm allowed... Am I allowed Mikey?" Gerard continues to bite at his fingers. Mikey smiled widely and got up to hug him. Gerard breathed a sigh of relief at the physical contact from Mikey. "Um... Mikey, are those mean boys going to h-hurt me again?" Mikey smirked.

"No. They won't, but we're going to go in a little later today, okay? The guys just have something to sort out first." Gerard just smiled and nodded a quick okay an sat down to eat some breakfast.

The two brothers walking into school during the first break and saw their friends in the place they were usually in. Gerard noted the grins they all had on their faces, liked they just pulled of the major heist. Little did Gerard know, they, in a way, had.

"Did you do what I asked?" Mikey said once they were within ear shot. No hello, no hi, no form of greeting was passed, just a straight out question.

"It's all set up." Frank winked. "The shit is set to go down at lunch, so we'll be in the cafeteria for abit so the plan can commence." he continued. Gerard didn't understand what was going on, so Gerard being Gerard, he just ignored it and sat next to Claude, who, on his arrival, gave Gerard a hug.

Gerard gave her a strange look as she pulled away. You see, Claude wasn't a bold, in-your-face person unlike her two younger siblings, she was quiet and shy. Even Gerard had picked up on this. After considering he behavior for a moment, he smiled slightly at her, his medicated mind telling him it was an act of kindness.

When lunch time came around, Charlotte, Coral, Mikey, Emma, Ray, Claude, Gerard and Frank walked into the cafeteria early, everyone apart from Claude and Gerard, looked somewhat shifty as they took the table they knew was opposite where Jake and his cronies sat.

They all waited patiently as the rest of the school came to take their seats, eat their lunches and socialize with friends. It wasn't long until the three boys they were awaiting, came stumbling in, laughing obnoxiously and bragging loudly about some kid they just beat up. Frank grinned widely.

Claude had been informed of the plan, but decided to watch their humiliation from a safe distance where she could keep her eye on Gerard, who was also just watching. But of course, he didn't know that yet.

As they took their seats in the table opposite. Everyone minus Claud and Gerard grabbed the buckets, filled with food and drinks they'd stolen from the cafeteria, that lay at there feet. Claude grabbed Gerard and took him to a safe distance where they could still see what was about to go down.

Naturally, Jake and his Cronies' were to oblivious to everything going on around them to notice the friends creeping up on them. It was only until they felt food and drinks drenching them they became aware of everything around them.

The hall filled with laughter and cheers as the friend ran out of the hall. Jake and co wouldn't have known it was them if it wasn't for Frank, turning and winking at them just as he left.

Jake stared angrily at the door, he had food and drink dripping from every inch of him and it was making him feel ill. He had to give Iero credit though. But he'd get him back. Oh boy he'd get him back.

At the end of the school day, the group high-fived one last time in celebration of their victory. As the Girls and Ray all made there way home.

"Um, Frankie, is it okay if Gee goes to yours for a few hours?" Mikey asked. "Its just, I've got stuff to do-"

"Dont'cha mean people?" Frank smirked. Mikey ignored him.

"And there's no one home..." he finished. Frank smiled and quickly glanced over to Gerard.

"He's taken his pills right?" Frank asked, flipping his hair from his eyes. Mikey nodded quickly. "Sure thing man. Want me to drop him back at yours about seven?" Mikey nodded again as they stopped in front of Franks car.

"Gerard, your going to Frankie's for a bit, okay?" Gerards smiled grew widely at Mikeys words.

"Okay!" he hugged Mikey. "See ya later Mikey." and before Mikey could even reply, He had jumped in Franks car eagerly waiting to go to Franks home.

Frank opened the door to his house, not bothering to remove his shoes, his parents had left on another business trip. But Gerard, being as polite as he is, removed his shoes and followed Frank who was on his way to the living room.

"So Gee, you want some food?" Gerard went to say no, but his stomach rumbled, betraying him. Frank chuckled. "Chinese, Indian or pizza?" Frank offered.

"Um... Chinese?" Gerard questioned hesitantly. Frank smiled at his shyness.

"Whatta ya want?" he asked.

"Chicken fried rice?" Gerard said, hesitant again.

"Sure thing man." Frank picked up the phone and ordered their food, then put on the TV and passed Gerard the remote. Gerard, upon seeing Sweeney Todd was on, put that on. Luckily for them, it had only just started.

About half an hour in, the food came. After they got settled again, the resumed watching the film in silence. Until Frank whispered to Gerard:

"Still want that date Gee?" Gerard choked and spluttered on his food.

"You still want to?" he asked, visibly shocked. Frank laughed loudly.

"Of course I do." Frank moved closer to Gerard. "I wouldn't miss out on a chance like that." then softly, he pressed a kiss and Gerards lips. "Do you still want to?" Frank asked, somewhat worriedly.

"Yes!" Gerard smile looked like it was going to split his face.

"Good." Frank breathed in relief. "I'll pick you up at seven tomorrow?" Gerard nodded. "But you can't tell Mikey okay?"

"Okay." Gerard breathed, and with that, they continued watching the film.
