12 Shots of Tequila
Shot #6: "So Who Was Your First Kiss?"
**********Flashback**********
Time Lapse: 6 years back
"Jesus, Frank. Those were my favorite jeans too," Gerard laughed as he slipped on some sweatpants, his eyes never leaving Frank's exposed torso. God he loved Frank's tattoos. He would get some of his own, but he'd rather burn in the pits of hell before he ever came near a needle.
Frank smirked, "Hey, you ruined my Smiths shirt. Speaking of, can I borrow yours?"
Gerard playfully glared at him, "are you ever gonna give it back?"
Frank shot him a cheesy grin, “Hell no."
Gee rolled his eyes and laughed again, rummaging through his drawers. Once he found the desired article of clothing, he tossed it to Frank, “How the fuck are we supposed to explain why my legs are slightly blue and your chest is slightly green?” Just minutes ago, Gerard and Frank were attempting to make some midnight pancakes which soon turned into a food coloring war.
Frank shrugged and slipped on the shirt, “We’ll think of something. In the meantime, how does a movie sound?”
Hearing Frank say that brought a smile to Gerard’s face. They always ended up cuddled together sometime during movies, and Gee loved it. “Sounds great, you know where the movies are. Just pick any one.”
Frank nodded and went downstairs. Gerard laid back onto his bed and sighed. Everything was so easy with Frank yet so…complicated. Whenever Frank smiled, he felt those stupid butterflies that every love story talks about. He just wants to lean over and kiss him. It was stupid and cheesy. And Gerard hated cheesy.
A couple minutes later Frank returned with popcorn in one hand and The Nightmare before Christmas in the other. He put the movie into the DVD player in Gerard’s TV then proceeded to lie down next to him. They spent the duration of the movie making small comments and passing the popcorn, occasionally brushing fingers.
Once the credits started rolling, Frank turned his head towards his best friend and asked, “Are you tired?”
Gerard yawned and shook his head, “Not at all, just kinds bored now.”
Frank shifted so that he was facing Gee, “Let’s play truth or dare. Sober this time.”
“Aright, but you start,” Gerard said as he smiled at the memory of their last time playing.
Frank smirked, “Truth or Dare?”
Gerard thought for a moment. If he chose dare, Frank would probably make him do something stupid like calling up Mikey (who was staying at a friend’s house) and asking if his refrigerator is running. That was more than likely to get him killed by his younger brother in the morning. So he just went with the safer option,
“Truth.”
The shorter boy smiled devilishly, “Who was your first kiss?”
Gerard raised his eyebrows. Frank of all people should know this. “Well considering the fact that I have witnesses to this event, you my friend were my-”
Frank cut off Gerard, “You realize that it didn’t count right? I mean, I was drunk and it was a dare.”
Gerard suddenly felt his stomach (and his heart) drop all the way down to hell. It didn’t count?! That one kiss had kept Gerard’s head in the clouds for two years and not Frank is saying that it didn’t count?! Gerard clenched his teeth and took a deep breath, “Well then I guess that means I’ve never been kissed. And it’s pretty late, so I think you should go.”
Frank looked at him strangely, “But I thought I was staying over.”
Gerard sighed and turned away, “Just go, Frank.”
He heard the door open and Frank’s voice right after, “hey, Gee?”
Gerard winced at his nickname and turned around, only to see that Frank’s face was only centimeters away from his own. His breath hitched as Frank began to lean in, and eventually close the gap between them. It took a minute for Gerard to fully comprehend what was going on, but when he did, he kissed back and ran his fingers through Frank’s hair. They both broke away from the kiss as they heard the door to Mikey's door slam shut, neither of them paying much attention to it. Frank’s lips formed a grin that Gerard wholeheartedly returned.
“Gerard,” Frank began, “since I’m officially your first kiss, how does me being your first boyfriend sound?”
Gee laughed and nodded, placing another kiss on Frank’s lips.

Time Lapse: Present
Gerard gave himself a drunken smile. Leave it to Frank to purposely break him down so he can build him back up again. He remembered Frank later admitting that he wasn't drunk at the party even though Gerard already figured that.
He looked at the remaining shots, he was halfway through, and he was going to go all the way to the end.
