New kids

*Frank POV*


“Gerard come on we’re going to be late!” I yell from downstairs.

“Hold your horses not everyone can get their make-up done as fast as you, you little shit.” He replies and I roll my eyes and lean into Mikey.

“You’re brother’s the little shit.”

“I know.” He says, “He can be such a diva sometimes.”

“I heard and resent that!” Gerard says as he’s walking downstairs, damn he looks good in a tux.

“Nice to know you think that Frankie,” Gerard says with a smirk and Mikey laughs, I said that out loud?

“Yeah you did Frank.” Says Mikey still laughing.

“Stop it you guys, let’s just go, okay?” I say grabbing both Gerard’s and Mikey’s hands and dragging them out to the car.

“Jesus, Frank, Patience.” Gerard says as I wait impatiently for him to open up the door.
Finally we all get in the car, (my favorite one we have, a ’67 Chevy Impala) and get ready to drive to the dance. I force Mikey to change the music from Anthrax to something else for a change and we all rock out to the Misfits on the way. We get there sooner than expected, I think Gerard was speeding, but he denies it of course, and I’m not one to correct the person who’s going to be kissing me later.

We walk into the dance arm in arm and try to ignore everyone’s stares and just have a good time. I mean just because incest and something like having more than one mate is okay with vampires it doesn’t mean they’ll accept it right away, but for the most part we don’t have anyone saying anything that would be considered rude by vampire standards. Just some people staring.
I leave Gerard and Mikey’s little dance circle and go over to a table to get some blood. I get a cup and start to drink it while I watch both my mates’ dance, god they’re so beautiful.

“Excuse me?” I hear a voice ask and I turn to see a girl next to me.

“Oh sorry am I in your way,” I say moving out of the way of the blood bowl.

“Uh, no, I was just wondering something.” She asks and I nod for here to continue, “What’s going on with you and the Way brothers? Are you their bitch or something?”

I bristle at the thought of that, me their bitch?! I’m their god damn mate, a fucking equal. I don’t let my anger show though, knowing this chick probably wants the satisfaction of making me mad.

I’m about to open my mouth to reply when I feel a hand on my shoulder, “Is everything okay here?” I hear Gerard ask and I scoot a bit closer to him.

“Oh no I was just asking Frank here a question.” Says the girl a bit nervously.

“Oh well then, what was the question?” Gerard asks a bit sassily and I sense Mikey come up behind me as well and he hugs me to himself.

“Um, oh, uh…it wasn’t important.” She says looking down at the ground and shuffling around a bit.

“Oh really, cause you upset my Frankie quite a bit.” Gerard says, “So I’m sure you can say it to me.”

“I…Iaskedifhewasyouandmikey’sbitch.” She rushes out clearly uncomfortable.

“What was that, I didn’t quite catch that?” Gerard is smirking evilly now.

“I asked if he was you and Mikey’s bitch.” She whispers.

“Louder please.” Oh now I know what he’s doing, public humiliation.

“I asked if he was you and Mikey’s bitch.” She says at normal speaking level.

“I’m sorry I still can’t hear you.”

The girl grits her teeth and is practically growling, “I asked if he was you and Mikey’s bitch.” She yells and then everyone turns to stare at us, and I shift until I’m pretty much hidden by Mikey. Well as hidden as I can be, he’s so thin I could get a paper cut.

“That wasn’t so hard was it, what was your name? I don’t think I heard it.”

“Clarissa.” She says angrily glaring at me.

“Oh well then Clarissa,” Gerard says loudly, “Frank is not Mikey and I’s “bitch” as you put it, he is our mate and you better respect that from here on out.”

Clarissa nods and runs off with everyone glaring at her. In vampire etiquette it’s okay to insult or tease an unmated vampire about certain relationships, like friends with benefits, but you never insult someone’s mate. No matter how strange it seems.

“Come on Frankie.” Mikey says pulling out of the hug, “Let’s go dance.”

Notes

I really wanted to write sassy overprotective Gerard.
