Chapter Twelve: The world is ugly.

Frank had been allowed to go home early that day, leaving Gerard with Ray and Bob. The boys had eaten their lunch and wandered off to their lockers, Gerard walking on his own since his was no where near Ray's and Bob's.

"Hey freak!" A cheerful voice said from behind Gerard as he shut his locker. Gerard turned around to be greeted by the presence of Bert, minus his annoying jock friends thankfully.

"Hey Bert." Gerard said through gritted teeth, putting all his effort in not to call Bert all the names under the sun and slam his fist into his face.

"How's little freak then? I hear I got him pretty bad." Bert smirked.

"Frank had to go home no thanks to you and your two little friends down there." Gerard said, signalling at Bert's hands.

"Aww that's a shame." Bert smirked before pulling Gerard into a near by classroom and shutting the door so nobody could see them.

"What the fuck are you doing?" Gerard shouted as Bert locked the door and slid the key in his pocket.

"I heard a little rumour that you used to cut yourself, that true?" Bert smirked as Gerard froze.

"Maybe, why do you want to know?" Gerard asked, a hint of worry in his voice.

"Just I've got something to ease the pain of life." Bert winked childishly at Gerard before pulling a small bag of white powder out of his pocket and throwing it on the table. Gerard stared at the small bag, wondering what it was, of course he knew it was drugs but what type? He'd tried a few diffrent types before and it had in fact stopped the ache of life for a while.

"What do you want back? I mean you can't just give me this stuff for free?" Gerard asked, standing still whilst staring at the powder.

"Eh I don't know right now, all I know is that I want to help a friend in need." Bert winked and slide the bag further over to Gerard who hesitated but picked up the bag and put it in his pocket.

"Err thanks ..." Gerard mumbled, moving to get out of the classroom.

"Hey baby wait up! I just thought of what I want in return!" Bert grabbed Gerard's arm and pulled him close so their faces were almost touching.

"Wha what?" Gerard whimpered slightly. Bert moved his hands lower down Gerard's back grabbing his ass. Gerard squeaked slightly and tried pushing Bert away which failed as the jock was twice as strong as Gerard.

"But, but I'm with Frank! I love Frank! Ugh let go of me!" Gerard tried getting out of Bert's gripped but failed.

"Would you shut up moaning please?" Bert asked politely. Gerard stopped, shocked at the jocks politeness which he'd never shown before.

"No!" Gerard shouted and carried on fidgeting and mumbling. Bert pulled Gerard's face up to his and forced his lips on the dyed haired boys who didn't put up much of a fight. The two carried on kissing for a short while before Gerard pulled away, wiping at his face with his jumper.

"No no no this is wrong. I'm with Frank. Nonono." Gerard carried on mumbling to himself becoming slightly hysterical.

"Aww come on baby!" Bert whispered, pulling Gerard close again, "all I want is you in return, that's not asking a lot is?" Bert asked, pulling puppy dog eyes at Gerard before kissing the other boy once again. This time though, Gerard didn't put up and fight at all and let it happen. Bert moved one of his hands from Gerard's ass and moved to unzip his trousers, grabbing his crotch lightly before doing so. Gerard squeaked slightly but didn't put up any fight as the other boy began to undress him. Suddenly as Bert grabbed Gerard the olive eyed boy shrunk back, shaking his head.

"What?" Bert asked, sadness in his voice as he moved closer to Gerard once again.

"I, I shouldn't be doing this." Gerard whispered.

"Aww c'mon! I won't tell if you don't." Bert winked and proceeded to slide his hands down Gerard's pants who proceeded to let out a soft moan. Gerard threw his head back in ecstasy as Bert lowered himself towards Gerard's crotch.

The rest of the day slowly crawled by for Gerard, Ray and Bob had quizzed him on where he had been but Gerard told them he dropped his stuff and had to pick it all up and rearrange it all before class, amazingly the two had believed him. Gerard walked home alone, wondering if he should stop by Frank's house and see how he was.

Frank opened the door slowly, peeking outside before seeing Gerard and swinging the door wide open.

"Gee!" Frank squealed, leaping into Gerard's open arms.

"Hey baby!" Gerard laughed at Frank's excitment before closing the front door behind him. Frank pulled Gerard over to the sofa and planted kisses on his neck.

"I missed you Gee." Frank whimpered.

"I can tell!" Gerard laughed as his boyfriend leaped up and wrapped his legs around Gerard's back. The two kissed passionately for what seemed like forever.

"How's your face?" Gerard asked worried.

"Way to kill the mood Gerard," Frank huffed as Gerard chuckled at his sex deprived boyfriend, "my face is okay I suppose, I'm taking pain killers so most of doesnt really hurt." Frank whimpered as he snuggled into Gerard's chest whilst sat on his lap.

"I missed you today." Gerard whispered into Frank's ear, stroking his spiky hair. Frank looked up with his sparkling chocolate eyes full of warmth into Gerard's calm olive ones before pecking him on the lips and dragging him up the stairs to his bedroom, stripping him as they travelled.
