Days Gone By

Lindsey wrapped her arms around Gerard, trying to catch his eye as he stared absentmindedly over her shoulder. “But why do you have to go supply hunting with him? I don’t want you to go” She whined, pouting slightly as he looked down at her; rolling his eyes with frustration as he reluctantly hugged her back. “I’ll be back before you know it” He replied quietly, his voice somewhat emotionless as he kissed her on the forehead and walked off.

She squeezed her eyes shut, suppressing the urge to scream. How could he just leave her like this? Lindsey slowly turned round, watching him and Frank walked out of the building; flashing them a scornful look as they left. Billie quickly shut the door behind them, barricading the rest of the group inside the warehouse they had taken shelter in. His eyes fell upon a scornful Lindsey as she folded her arms into her chest; a thin smile slowly emerging onto his face. He hoped to god that Frank and Gerard sorted themselves out.

He loved seeing that bitch miserable.

The pair left the group, walking towards the woods behind Carriage Park Estate, an awkward silence hung in the air. Gerard glanced over at him, taking hold of his hand. Frank snatched it away, storming off without looking back. He stood in the street, dumbfounded as he watched Frank storm up the dirt track and into the wood, eyes fixed to the floor. “Hey wait a minute” He called out. He ran into the woods, calling out at him to slow down as he desperately tried to keep up.
Frank said nothing, ignoring Gerard as he walked off faster into the woods, kicking up the leaves as he walked. He felt his hands curl into fists, a sense of anger washing over him. “Frank just stop!” Gerard shouted, finally catching up. He turned to face him, an angry sneer spread across his face. Gerard brushed the hair out of his face just in time to see Frank swing for him. He backed away, his fist missing his face by inches. “What the hell are you doing?” He cried, shocked at his sudden change of temper. Frank swung at him again; deep down he didn’t want to hurt Gerard but he was still hurting from everything he said. “I didn’t ask you to come with me” He screamed, kicking out at Gerard. His foot caught Gerard in the shin and he fell to the floor, Frank’s fist smacking him across the cheek as he fell amongst the twigs and sodden leaves. “What the fuck is wrong with you” Gerard shouted, his hand covering his cheek.

Suddenly Frank stopped, stepping away from Gerard, his eyes widening with horror. “I... I’m so sorry Gee” he stammered. He started towards him, feeling sick with guilt. He reached out to him, his hands trembling as he did so. Gerard moved away from him, struggling to his feet alone. There was a moment of complete silence, as though the world had suddenly stopped. Gerard moved his hand away from his mouth, a tiny amount of blood trickled down his fingers. “Well I hope you’re proud of yourself” He scolded, wiping his cheek with the back of sleeve. Frank watched as Gerard wiped up a small cut on his face. I did that. I’m the one who cause that to happen he thought to himself, blinking back the tears. “I... Gee I.... You know I didn’t mean to hurt you...” Frank stammered, trying hard to force back the tears. Gerard shook his head. “Don’t give me that shit, I came out here with you to try and sort things out and you fucking beat the shit out of me” He replied.


Frank didn’t respond, he didn’t know how to. He sighed, walking past Gerard. He loved him, more than he cared to admit. But he couldn’t live like this; constantly worried about what he would think of him. But more importantly

His girlfriend was pregnant with his baby.

“You know I love you Frank, I care about you a lot. But if this is how you feel then that’s fine” He said softly, hanging his head as he turned to walk away. “Don’t go” Frank pleaded, grabbing his arm. Frank turned and saw the tears welling in his eyes. “I can’t go on without you”


They looked into each other’s eyes, Frank wrapping his arms around Gerard, his eyes closing as he pressed his lips against his. He ran his fingers through his ebony coloured hair while Gerard pulled him in closer; his hands feeling their way down his back, grabbing his behind. For a moment, everything seemed to fade away. Gerard no longer thought about Lindsey, she didn’t matter to him anymore. It was all about him... it always would be. Frank pulled away, a smile broadening upon his face as he felt Gerard growing hard. “Well, what are we going to do about that?” Frank said quietly. Gerard grinned. He kissed him, his tongue moving in rhythm with Frank’s as he felt for his zipper. He felt Frank’s fingers lock around his jeans, sliding them down his legs. He closed his eyes, waiting impatiently yet excitedly to feel his lovers’ hands on him.


A moment had passed and nothing had happened. He opened his eyes only to find Frank staring over his shoulder, fear flickering in his eyes. “What’s wrong?” He asked. Frank opened his mouth to speak but found that he could not form the words to describe the horror he had just witnessed.

Gerard turned; a horrified scream erupted from his lips as he did so.

Not far from the pair, merely a few meters from where they stood, was a huge horde of walkers, twitching and snarling in an almost inhumanly fashion. They circled around them, blood pouring from their gnashing jaws as they closed in on the pair. “Frank what do we do?” Gerard cried, looking around frantically for an exit. Frank said nothing, taking hold of Gerard’s hand as the walkers moved in on them.

“Close your eyes and count to ten” He whispered, kissing him on the cheek.

Sorry this chapter is shit, I'm pretty sure I've failed my English exam today so it's safe to say I've had a really shitty day (I can kiss goodbye to any hopes of getting into my chosen university) :( x
