Gerard's POV.

I watched Frank leaving and smiled. He was adorable. I snapped out of my thoughts and shoved a few things in my bag before turning to leave, which was when I saw Ray. Oh.

"Yes Mr. Toro?" I asked, sitting back down at my desk. "Is something the matter?"

"Yes actually." Ray frowned as he closed the door and folded his arms over his chest. "Whatever's going on with your and Frank has to stop, right fucking now." He muttered.

"Sorry, Ray.." I murmured as I stood up. "It's nothing to do with you, now can you go? I have to be somewhere."

"No!" He shook his head. "No you leave Frank alone, okay? I'll tell. I'll tell everyone if you don't stop this whole thing now. It's fucked up!"

"Language Mr Toro." I sighed. I knew I couldn't get angry at a student, I'd get into trouble. Fucking law. "Why is this bothering you so much? It's got nothing to do with you.."

"Yes, it has. He's my best friend and you're just fucking with his head. I mean, I know he's hot, but you have a boyfriend and you're older, it'll never work.. You're just playing with his feelings."

I sighed, running a hand through his hair. God I wished he would just drop it. "Look what happens between me and Frank is between me and him only, no one else. So stop acting like you're in love with him or something."

"I am."

"..What?"

"You heard."

Ah, shit. "Well I'm sorry." I murmured quietly. "But if Frank wanted to be with you, he would be with you by now, wouldn't he?"

"No see that's the thing. Even if he liked me, who would choose me over the hot new teacher? He's chosen you because you're the dangerous one. No one would give a fuck if me and him were together because we've fucked enough times anyway."

I knew I shouldn't have let that get to me. But I did. What if Frank really was just with me because of who I was and the thrill behind it? "Ray I'd appreciate it if you left now."

"Fine, whatever.. But, make sure you break it off with him soon. You know what will happen if you don't." He muttered, before walking out.

Fuck.

I got home half an hour later and sighed, making myself some coffee. Though even cigarettes and coffee didn't seem to be making me feel any better today. I didn't know what to do.
Ray seemed to be telling the truth. I was going to be in a lot of shit if I didn't break up with Frank. I was going to be in shit if I did break up with Frank. I couldn't win.

"What's up baby?" Zack asked, sliding his arms around me from behind. "You seem tense.."

"Just a hard day." I replied with a faint smile. "Y'know what teenagers are like when it comes to maths.."

"Hm, yeah." He whispered, kissing the back of my neck which made me shiver. "Come to bed.. I'll make it better."
