Frerard is Real

Gerard grabbed a coffee mug from the top shelf. His taste buds were craving coffee. He had skipped his usualy coffee in the morning due to the fact he had slept in. "Ah, yes." He tucked in his lips as the hot liquid poured into his mug. He held the mug up close to his nose and breathed in the scent. His stomach whirled. He sighed happily as he made his way to the couch.
Frank had a bag of chips retsted on his lap. His eyes were laid on the television.
Gerard sat next to him, sipping from his mug. This is what I love. He thought, No stress, no Patrick Stump, no drama-
A loud ringing of the doorbell sounded throughout the house. Gerard murmered under his breath, "I guess I spoke too soon." He held onto his coffee as he stood up from the couch, heading towards the door. As he grabbed onto the door knob, he cussed a few words under his breath. He swung it open to find...Vic? Not Fuenciado, just Vic. Vic smiled, “Hey Gerard.”
Gerard raised a brow, “Um, hey…”
Vic shifted his body, “Um, can I come in?”
Gerard looked over to Frank. Frank smiled, and nodded, signaling Gerard to let him in. Gerard hesitated, but nodded and stepping aside.
Vic smiled. He walked in before inspecting the house, “I forgot to tell you when Patrick and the rest of the guys came over-you have a great home.” He faced Gerard, “Sorry for just dropping in…”
Gerard opened his mouth, but Frank with quick with words, “It’s not big deal. It was getting boring here anyway.” He chuckled.
But I like it that way. Gerard thought. He sighed softly. Vic grinned, "Hey, so I actually came to ask if you guys wanted to hang out more. The other guys want to ask if you want to go to the mall, go swimming," Vic walked to a portrait of Superman and traced his fingers along it, "Go to a concert?" Vic smiled at Gerard, "It'll be fun."
Gerard opened his mouth-but again, Frank was quick, "Hell yeah! We should do all of the above!" Frank jumped over the couch to wrap his arms around Gerard, "What do you think, babe?"
Gerard stared into Frank's eyes. He's never seen Frank like this before. There was a gleam in Frank's eye, a spark Gerard hadn't noticed. Gerard forced a smile, "Yeah, sounds fun."
Vic cheered, "Awesome! I'll call the guys."

Gerard walked along side with Frank and the others. They followed where ever the crowd went. Jalex led the group into Macy's. Alex laughed as he clipped a bra on from the outside of his shirt. Jack laughed along as he added a scarf around Alex's neck. Jack knelt down and held onto Alex's hand, "Wendy, run away with me."
Alex scoffed, pushing the false hair out of his eyes, "Peasant." He couldn't help but laugh aloud.
The group laughed along, smiling.
Jack grinned as he got back on his feet, "Let's see how long it takes to get kicked out."
Alex grabbed Jack's hand, "ON FORTH, JACKSON." Alex yelled as he led Jack to the kitchen utensils. They skipped side by side, swinging their hands, having the time of their life.
Frank held onto his side, "Those guys are hilarious!"
Gerard smiled, "Yeah, they are."
Frank playfully bumped his shoulder against Gerard's, "It's been a while since we went out. I'm glad we came...thanks for agreeing-even when I know you didn't want too."
Gerard stared at him for a while until saying, "That's not true." Why do I keep lying?
Frank looked at him. His eyes observed him.
"HEY. STOP THAT." Frerard and the others heard a man's voice echo. They rushed towards the kitchen utensils to find Jalex frozen in place by security. The man yelled, spitting harsh words. Frank rushed over, and as if he didn't have control over himself, he shoved the man, knocking him into the packaged forks. The man groaned as he struggled to get up. He muttered, "GET OUT. NOW. NOT JUST THIS STORE. OF THE MALL BEFORE I FUCKING CALL THE POLICE."
Jalex looked over to Frank in disbelief.
Gerard placed his hand on Frank's shoulder, "Hey, are you okay-?"
Frank swiped Gerard's hand away. Gerard can feel the stinging sensation in his hand as Frank gave him cold eyes. Frank yelled, "How long have you been lying, Gerard?"
Gerard's heart stopped, "Frank-"
Frank pointed his finger, "You. You have been lying to me"
Gerard took a small step back, "Frank...we'll talk about this later-"
"No. You know what, no. Let's talk about it now." Frank looked over to the other couples then back to Gerard, "What? You don't want to get embarrassed?"
Gerard was silent. His stomach was knotted up, his palms were sweaty. Everything around him was getting smaller and smaller by the second. Gerard's eyes were tearing up, but he held them back with his will power. He wanted to talk, to explain, but no words spoke.
Frank brushed his hand through his hair, "You just lied to me, Gerard. I know you did-didn't you?"
Gerard finally blurted, "Yes but what makes you think I lied to you before?"
"Did you?" Frank asked, his eyes daring him.
Gerard's eyes let out a single tear. He choked out a weak word, "Yes."
Frank's arms dropped to his side. He stared into Gerard's eyes as he shook his head.
"THAT'S IT." The security man struggled to get up, "I'M CALLING THE POLICE."
Frank replied, "You don't need too. We're leaving." Frank broke eyes contact as he walked pass Gerard. Gerard stood in his place before slowly following Frank's steps.
The rest of the group gave each other looks like, 'Whoa' or 'what just happened?' Alan sighed, "Well, at least we have information for Patrick..."
Vic shook his head, "I don't think we should tell him."
Austin argued, "But we have to investigate."
"This seems more like a personal problem..." Jaime replied.
The couples watched as Gerard dissapeard from the store with slopped shoulders, a lack of posture.
Jack rushed towards the others, "Let's go. Hurry. Security is on his feet now." Alex rushed out the exit with Jack as the others took a few seconds before running out.
