Gerard’s POV

“Gerard, get your arse out here, I’m not going to catch Frank on my own!” Mikey shouted from the back garden, Frank had swapped Mikey’s shampoo with a wash in-wash out bright blue hair dye, so Mikey looked like a giant smurf running around the garden after Frank; who was a lot faster on his feet for someone of his size, I wasn’t going outside, if I went outside that’d mean I’d have to get up off the warm comfy couch, out into the snow covered garden in the bitter cold December air.
Three months had passed since Mikey’s Birthday and since then nothing has really ‘happened’ between Frank and I, school was a lot better for the both of us now, I’d stopped hiding behind my mask and although the first few weeks I got a lot of abuse for ditching my ‘gang’ it got better, because they’re still scared of me, but it was now almost Christmas 2 days away to be exact, school broke up yesterday and I’m so happy, no studying or anything for two whole weeks, which is also two whole weeks to spend with Mikey and Frank. Moms working right up until Christmas eve and only gets Christmas day off and she’s back to work boxing day, it’s sad, but I know she does it to keep us going, I swear without my mom I’d be dead, but then I wonder how Frank has coped his mom died when he was 10 and he lived with his Granddad until he was 15 and then moved back into his parents’ house, sometimes I’d go to Franks house, just to keep him company, he doesn’t say anything, but I know he gets lonely, he’s turned up at our house a few times unexpected, but we never refuse to let him in, This place is like his second home now. “Gerard! Come help me catch the midget!” Mikey said walked into the room completely out of breathe. I shook my head “I’m not leaving this couch until I absolutely have to.” I said cradling my hot cup of coffee in my hands for warmth. Frank soon ran passed Mikey quickly and sat beside me on the couch “Mikey it’ll wash out in a few days, it’s not like you have to go to school with bright blue hair.” He said beaming at my brother, Mikey shrugged and sat in the arm chair across the room and sighed heavily. I could feel Frank’s arm brushing against mine, he was fucking freezing and it sent shivers down my spine. “Gerard are you okay?” he asked raising an eyebrow; clearly my shiver was more noticeable than I thought. “Yeah, you’re just freezing, how do you not have hyperthermia or something?” he laughed at my question “I like the winter, I prefer it to the summer, the summer’s too hot.” I shrugged “I like spring, it’s like half way between the two and it rains, I like the rain.” Frank nodded and stood up; Mikey raised an eyebrow “Where are you going?” Frank turned and smiled at Mikey “I’m getting my baby out of the trunk of the car.” He said beaming Mikey smiled and nodded “That just sounds like child abuse to me…” I said after Frank had left the room, Mikey erupted with laughter “He’s talking about his guitar Gee. It’s his baby.” I nodded, I didn’t know Frank could play guitar, or even that he had one, Frank came back into the room with a guitar case in his hand, he placed it on the floor and released each clasp and pushed it open, the guitar was beautiful, it was a beautiful shade of white, much like the snow when it’s freshly settled on the ground and the word ‘Epiphone’ on the head, he lifted it out of the case and ran his hand along the body “What’s this one called Frank?” Mikey asked sarcastically “Pansy” he replied sticking his tongue out in Mikey’s direction. He played a few chords and then he started playing a familiar song. It was the song Mikey had told me to listen to a few days before his birthday. Frank turned his head and winked at me.

Franks POV

I was playing ‘Everybody’s Fool’ the song that reminded me so much of Gerard before we were friends, but he was a completely different person now, we ended up just jamming for hours, Mikey had gone upstairs to get his Bass and Gerard would tap a simple beat on his Legs every now and again. we did songs by the Misfits and Smashing Pumpkins, a few Green Day songs but when Gerard and Mikey’s Mom came home from work, we casually started to play Livin’ On a Prayer by Bon Jovi, which of course their mom loved, Me and Gerard were singing along with her and Mikey was standing there Poker face as ever concentrating on playing. Eventually we stopped playing and I put Pansy up in Mikey's room with his bass. I came back down stairs and sat next to Gerard on the couch again “I didn’t know you could play guitar.” He said smiling at me, I smiled to myself and picked up my cup of coffee that Mikey had made me and before taking a gulp I replied “There’s a lot you don’t know about me.” Gerard turned his body to face me cocking his eyebrow “Oh really? Like what?” he said with a smirk on his face, I smiled into my coffee and looked at him “Oh I don’t think you want to know.” He punched me playfully in the arm “oh I think I do.” I looked over to Mikey who was drinking his coffee innocently and I looked to Gerard “I made out with your brother once.” I said grinning, Mikey spat out some of his coffee and Gerard was staring at me wide eyed “Frank! You said you weren’t going to tell anyone!” Mikey spat from across the room, I shrugged and smiled at him ignoring the death glare he was giving me through his glasses, Gerard was still in shock “you made out with Mikey? Why would you do that?” I laughed to myself slightly “He was moaning about something and I needed to shut him up” I said smirking, Gerard shrugged it off but Mikey was still glaring at me. There was silence for a while until Gerard and Mikey’s mom came into the room “Dinner’s ready boys.” This is one of the many reason I love staying at this house, their mom it THE most amazing cook and she always did something vegetarian for me which I appreciated a lot, the three of us practically ran into the kitchen and sat at the table, Mikey at one end of the table, his mom at the other and Gerard and I next to each other along the side nearest the wall.

Gerard’s POV

After we ate the three of us went upstairs into Mikey’s room just to relax and listen to music. Frank had got into the room first and was already lying across the bed; Mikey had taken the only other chair in the room, so I did what I had to do. “Frank move your midget ass, I need to sit down.” I said smiling at him, he smiled at me and lifted his torso up so he was sitting up, I sat down by the head board with my back against the wall and Frank lay back down with his head across my lap. The only thing running through my mind at this point was ‘calm the fuck down gee’, I played it cool because I’m used to having to around frank and smiled at him “Comfy?” I said sarcastically and he smiled at me “Very, thanks.”
After listening to music for about half an hour Frank got up off the bed and turned to me “If you steal my spot. I’ll go all Sith Lord on your ass.” He said the star wars comment making Mikey smile
I had to admit Mikey ha defiantly got me and Frank into star wars now, but ignoring Franks threat, I stretched out across the bed. “He’s not kidding you know, he’ll probably jump on you…” Mikey warned me “To be fair, it’s not like you wouldn’t enjoy having Frank on top of you.” He said smirking at me I turned my head to face him slowly “What’s that supposed to mean?” Mikey laughed “Don’t act stupid Gerard, it’s obvious you like him.” I rolled my eyes “Fuck off.” Mikey moved the chair closer to the bed “You’re not denying it though are you?” he said smiling at me “Denying what?” Frank said as he walked back into the room, Mikey shrugged and pushed the chair back away from the bed slightly. “You’re in my spot…” Frank said smirking at me, I shrugged “What are you gonna do about it?” I questioned “eh nothing, I’m too tired to care anymore…” Mikey shook it head “Oh my you’re just the master of all Sith lords.” He said sarcastically which made me laugh; Frank walked over to the bed and lay back down next to me, I could feel my heart race slightly when he turned his head to look at me and smiled. “Okay Guys, get the hell out of my room, its 2:00am and I want to sleep.” Frank and I sighed and got off the bed and left the room, I was about to walking into my room when Frank cleared his throat “Gerard, can I...um, can I sleep in your room? The couch does your back in after a while…” I nodded, I couldn’t refuse, I remember hearing his back click when he woke up this morning, but I guess you could say I was nervous, I mean, he’d have to share a bed with me because my room is way too small, I mean it’s not like we haven’t shared a bed before like when we fell asleep watching star wars with Mikey or when I went over to his house when he told me about his parents, but we’ve never intentionally shared a bed. “Thanks Gerard.” He smiled I went into my room and cleared up the floor a little bit, I then quickly got changed into my plain dark grey Pyjamas and sat on the bed, when Frank came into the room the only thing he was wearing were pyjama bottoms, meaning he was shirtless he smiled and walked over to the bed “Thanks again Gerard.” I shrugged and climbed under the sheets “don’t worry about it.” we were both lying awake for about 10 minutes when Frank turned to me “You wanna know something?” he smiled, I shrugged “know what?” he turned away so he wasn’t facing me “You’re a better kisser than Mikey.” I could feel my face heating up and I couldn’t help but smile to myself. “Good night Gerard.” He whispered “Night Frank…” and with that, we went to sleep.

Franks POV

I woke up the next morning, wrapped in Gerard’s arms, in Gerard’s bed. I adjusted myself so I was facing him, he looked so peaceful, he had a piece of hair on his face making him look like he had a Mario style mustache, I reached my hand up carefully and gently pushed it back behind his ear, which is when he woke up. “Mmm, what are you doing?” he said eyes still closed but a smile on his face I smiled at him even though he couldn’t see “I couldn’t see your face properly.” He let out a small laugh, I placed a hand on his waist and his eyes shot open. “Well this isn’t a dream is it?” he said smiling, I looked him in the eyes as my smile got bigger “You dream about me?” his face turned a pale shade of pink and he stared at the ceiling I smiled as he placed his gaze back down on me. Looking at Gerard made me wonder how I actually feel about him, I just didn’t know, I just seem to want more, I just don’t know what yet. We lay in silence for a while just staring at each other when Mikey came into the room which scared me and I fell off the bed hitting my head off the wooden bed frame on the way down. “Gerard, have you seen…oh, there you are…” he said confused but smiling, I rubbed the back of my head to make sure there wasn’t a bump, then I felt a hand in my hair “You okay?” I turned to see Gerard smiling at me; I nodded “Yeah I’m okay…” Mikey was now leaning against the door way looking at us over his glasses and smirking “So…you stayed in here last night?” he asked glancing at Gerard and then back to me still smirking “Yeah…” I said slightly confused. “Are you still going to deny it Gerard?” he said pushing his glasses further up his nose “Piss off Mikey.” Gerard replied sharply throwing a pillow at Mikey’s face, Mikey left the room looking rather pleased with himself, I got up and sat on the bed next to where Gerard was lying “What was that about?” I asked, Gerard rolled his eyes and sat up “Nothing, Mikey just thinks he’s being clever…” I tilted my head in confusion “clever about what? What are you ‘denying’” he looked at me and smiled “honestly it doesn’t matter, come on, moms probably got breakfast out by now.”

Gerard’s POV

Right now I felt like shoving Mikey’s head into the blender just so he doesn’t talk again! I seriously don’t know why he’s so insistent on me admitting my feelings for Frank, that’s if I had any. Which I don’t! I mean sure I like being around him it gives me a sense of security and makes me feel safe, and yeah I know a lot about him, but I still want to know more, and okay I go a little weak at the knees when he smiles at me, but that doesn’t mean I have ‘feelings’ for him…
We sat down to eat breakfast, Mom had made us all pancakes and bacon except for frank, he didn’t have any bacon, I really admired his vegetarianism, it wasn’t easy, he gets sick easily from the lack of protein that meat provides the body, yeah, Science was one of the few lessons I actually listen in. but I sat and ate my food, trying not to think about Frank, and failing miserably, honestly he was on my mind more often than not. “So are you boys excited for tomorrow?” mom asked smiling cheerily at us all “Tomorrow?” I asked confused, she turned to me “Yes sweetheart tomorrow’s Christmas day…” I completely forgot! And I still haven’t got Mikey or Frank presents, my mind was side-tracked thinking about Frank and I’ve forgotten almost everything, stupid Frank, wait no Frank’s not stupid, stupid Brain. After I’d finished eating I ran upstairs got a shower, got dressed and I was out almost out the door when Mikey stopped me “where are you going, don’t forget moms throwing that ‘party’ tonight…” I turned quickly “shit! Look I’ll be back later; I won’t abandon you with all the middle aged people. I promise” and with that I left and caught the first bus to the mall to get Mikey and Frank presents.
I when I got to the mall I went straight to Forbidden Planet which is where I almost always got Mikey’s presents from and bought him a limited edition statue of Harley Quinn to add to his DC action figure collection, but then there was Frank and walked around the store looking for something he might like but I couldn’t find anything or think of anything, I left the store with Mikey’s present and headed to Starbucks to get a coffee. When the guy at the counter gave me my coffee I sat down at one of the tables with the armchairs around it, I closed my eyes for a second trying to think of something to buy Frank when a voice invaded my thoughts “Hi Gerard.” I opened my eyes to see Alicia standing in front of me, I smiled at her, I liked Alicia, she was a nice girl, Mikey was really lucky. “Hi Alicia, what are you doing here?” I asked she waved her hands which were full of festive bags “last minute Christmas shopping, you?” I smiled “same here, you wanna sit down?” she nodded and smiled and took the chair opposite me “So who are you shopping for?” she asked, I smiled and showed her the Forbidden Planet bag and she laughed “Ah, Mikey I should have guessed, what about Frank? You got him a present?” I shook my head “I can’t think of anything that he’d like…”
she smiled “well, Mikey tells me he’s got his eye on something…” she said smirking the same way Mikey does, I raised an eyebrow “What?” he sat back and laughed slightly but then looked back at me “I’m looking at it…” she replied, she then stood up smiling and left waving me goodbye. Well even if what Alicia was saying was true, which it most likely isn’t I can’t just stick a fucking bow on my head and walk up to frank saying ‘MERYY CHRISTMAS’ I needed to buy him something. I continued to walk around the mall when I walked passed something that gave me the best idea of what to get Frank for Christmas.
When I came home mom was setting up for her party, which I wasn’t looking forward to in the slightest, she always made me and Mikey dress up nice, and by nice I mean suits, it was a very formal event in my mom’s opinion, me and Mikey just try and hide upstairs for as long as possible, this was an annual thing, every year she’s have her work friends and some family that Mikey and I didn’t really know come round for drinks and there’d be boring choral Christmas music and mistletoe in every doorway, I remember when I was about 14 I came downstairs to grab a coke and I got cornered under the mistletoe by an old lady. Ugh it was horrible. I walked up into my room and dumped the stuff on my bed and started wrapping presents very, very badly. When I was done I went into Mikey’s room to see if he and Frank were there and they were the sight when I walked into the room almost made me piss myself. “Not a word Gerard” Frank spat as Mikey was playing with his hair. “What happened?” I asked trying to hold in my laughter “Mikey got gum in my hair, and now he’s-OW Mikey that fucking hurt!-trying to get it out…” I rolled my eyes and walked over to where Mikey was standing “Let me do it…” Mikey moved his hands away and Frank looked at me and smiled weakly “Sit on the bed and face the wall.” I said softly, he obeyed and sat down, I then pulled a pair of scissors from Mikey’s dresser, I ran my fingers through Franks hair slowly so I could get as much of the gum and as little hair as possible and cut it out using the scissors. “Got it…” I said waving the gum in front of Frank’s face “Thanks Gerard.” He smiled. Then Mikey’s bedroom door opened “Hi boys, do you want to get changed? The guests will be arriving soon.” We nodded and she left the room smiling “Here, you can borrow one of my old blazers Frank, it should fit you…” Mikey smiled Frank nodded and put it on over his white t shirt. “This is as formal as I’m willing to go.” He said, Mikey nodded and I smiled I left the room to go and get changed.

Franks POV

After I put the blazer on I went down stairs to grab a can of coke, I then ran back upstairs as fast as possible and walked back into Mikey’s room which is where I saw Gerard, he was wearing his really tight black skinny jeans, a nirvana t shirt and a blazer over the top, his hair was combed and his fringe was cutting just below his eyebrows so you could see his hazel-green eyes. I smiled at him and we all sat on the bed, we were silent for a few minutes until Mikey spoke up “Oh guys, I invited Alicia, she said she was going to bring a friend…” he trailed off Gerard nodded “well at least we don’t have to suffer alone.” He said jokingly. And then the doorbell rang. A few minutes of awkward silence and listening to who was at the door and then we heard Mikey’s mom shout up the stairs “Mikey! Alicia and Hayley are here!” I froze staring at the bedroom door “Did she just say Hayley?” I asked slowly, Gerard placed a hand on my back “Sorry Frank…” he whispered Mikey looked really guilty but he went to go and meet Alicia by the door, a few minutes later and I heard them all coming up the stairs, “Seriously Gerard, now would be a great time to kill me.” I whispered, he turned to me “Sorry Frank, but that’s not gonna happen.” When Mikey came through the door holding hands with Alicia she mimed ‘I’m really sorry’ toward me and then Hayley followed them in.
“Frank! What are you doing here?” she asked, I shrugged in response and she gave Alicia a funny look, it must be a girl thing because whatever it was made Alicia shrug. “So Frankie, how have you been?” again I shrugged in response “Look Frank, you can’t ignore me forever.” I looked up at her “you knew I’d be here…” she looked at me startled “No I did not.” She replied a little bit too quickly. I stood up off the bed “I know you too well Hayley, I see straight through you…” she took a step closer biting her bottom lip slightly “I know you too Frank! I know that you regret breaking up with me!” I sighed and lay down on the bed “She’s been here 10 minutes and she’s already given me a head ache” I mumbled making Gerard laugh “Frank! Sit up and listen to me!” she spat I ignored her “Hayley, you’re being a bitch; I knew I shouldn’t have asked you to come.” Alicia stated Mikey took her hand and told her it was his fault, she smiled at him and he smiled back, they were so happy together. “You know, we used to have that…” I said plainly directing my statement to Hayley “And we still can…” she replied I shook my head and sat up “No. we can’t, you know you were the last person I thought would act like a complete whore when I was out of town, seriously, I was gone for 2 days and you’d already gone and fucked someone else…” I said casually, Mikey, Alicia and Gerard’s eyes all widened and looked to Hayley who was speechless. “That’s only because you never would! You didn’t love me enough!” I stood up and walked over to her so I was inches away from her face and I put my mouth to her ear and whispered “You know there’s more to Love than Sex Hayley; I thought you of all people would understand that.” And with that, she turned on her heels and left the room and shortly after I heard the slam of the front door and she was gone. “I really fucking hate that bitch…” I said smiling sarcastically “hey Frank, how did you know she’d fucked someone?” Alicia asked I sat up and smiled at her “I didn’t.” she laughed and Mikey smiled, Gerard turned to face me “You sir are the master of mind games.” He said between laughing “That’s what Jedi Mind tricks are all about, Right Mikes?” he laughed and nodded I then went to leave the room “where are you going?” Mikey inquired “I’m getting a drink, if I’m not back in 5 minutes, I’m probably dead.” And I left the room, downstairs was a sea of people, thankfully being small no one noticed me as I weaved through the crowd slowly towards the Kitchen, I had to time my entrance to the kitchen well so I wasn’t cornered under the mistletoe, seriously if this was a movie it’d be called ‘Mission Impossible: Christmas Edition’ I went cautiously toward the fridge when I got there I pulled open the fridge and grabbed the last can of coke, I then began my mission back upstairs but when I got to the kitchen door I walked straight into someone, I looked up slowly to see Gerard smiling “Hi.” I stood in front of him and smiled “what are you doing?” I asked he laughed “I came to see if you were dead or not, now come on I don’t think anyone has noticed the mistletoe.” He said smiling we were about to go back upstairs when a voice caught us from behind “Boys…” it was Gerard’s mom and she’d seen us under the mistletoe she nodded her head to the mistletoe “You know the rules boys…” Gerard lent back and looked toward the stairs, I did the same and Saw Mikey and Alicia watching us both, I turned to Mrs Way and she winked at me “Well we aren’t going anywhere until we get this over with…” he said smiling at me, I shrugged and he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me into his chest, the can of coke fell from my hands and they were flat on his chest, I could feel my face burning and then he placed his lips against mine and my right hand found its way to the back of his neck pushing his lips harder against my own, my left hand still on his chest, it lasted only a few seconds, but it felt like hours, Gerard took his arms from around my waist and I took my hands back from his neck and chest, we took a step away from each other and I stared at the floor for a few seconds before I felt Gerard’s hand on my shoulder “come on…” he said smiling at me as he led me back up stairs to the safety of Mikey’s room.
the rest of the night was a blur it went so fast, We basically just sat and listened to music and told each other stories until about 3:00am, Alicia then went home wishing us all a merry Christmas and we all went to bed, I slept in Gerard's bed again. Of Course
