Chapter Thirty One: Running away and hiding with you.

"Hey, wondered if you want to sleep over at mine tomorrow since its the weekend? Text me back, Frank xxx"

Gerard smiled at the text message he had just received.

"That your boyfriend?" Mikey asked, staring at Gerard's blissfully happy face.

"Shut up Mikey." Gerard glared at him. Since Frank's visit to the hospital, the two of them had literally kissed and made up but hadn't actually spoken about a relationship. They made out, held hands, went on dates and did other stuff like couples did but they hadn't actually discussed a relationship.

"Hey mum can I sleep over at Frank's tomorrow?" Gerard shouted into the kitchen to where his mother was located.

"Yeah sure honey!" His mum shouted back, "watch Mikey for a bit for me hun? I've got to go check on your grandma, I shouldn't be too long." Gerard's mother walked from the kitchen, through into the living room, kissed each of her sons goodbye and walked out of the house.

"Gerard! Make me something to eat please?" Mikey whined.

"What the hell did your last slave die of? Do it yourself you lazy pig!" Gerard shouted. Mikey stood up and shuffled off to the kitchen mumbling. "Useless git." He muttered under his breath glaring at his brother.

"Hey Gerard!" Frank squealed, opening his front door and allowing Gerard to stride in with his mini suitcase.

"Hey Frank." Gerard grinned, removing his thin jacket and hanging it up on a coat rail. Frank jumped up the stairs and Gerard followed, weighed down slightly by his suitcase.

"You reminded me a of a cat the way you jumped up those stairs!" Gerard exclaimed as he strolled into Frank's room, dumping his suitcase in a corner and helping Frank set up a temporary blow up mattress even though the pair of them knew he probably wouldn't end up using it.

"Wanna go downstairs and watch TV? Or we could stay up here?" Frank grinned at the latter option.

"Erm, stay up here I suppose?" Gerard chuckled as Frank's face lit up. The two moved over to Frank's bed and sat on it, Gerard crossing his legs and Frank curling his up next to his chest.

"How's it going then? Mikey still hyper as ever?" Frank chuckled at the memory of Gerard's hyper little brother.

"What do you think?" Gerard chuckled, "I'm fine, what about you?".

"I'm okay," he smiled then his brow furrowed, "can I ask you something?" Gerard nodded slowly, "have you stuck to your promise?" Frank asked cautiously. Gerard sighed.

"Yes Frank, I haven't cut myself since we last spoke." He spoke calmly, closing his eyes, "can we talk about something else please?"

"Erm, yeah sure," Frank spoke awkwardly, slightly embarrassed, "what do you want to talk about then?".

"Well," Gerard paused, "Mikey said something yesterday and it got me thinking. He asked if I was texting my boyfriend when I was texting you and I genuinely didn't know what to say." Gerard's brow furrowed and he looked up into Frank's chocolate brown eyes.

"Are you asking if we're a couple?" Frank spoke softly.

"Well... yes." Gerard laughed awkwardly.

"Well, to make it official, Gerard, will you go out with me?" He laughed awkwardly, smiling at Gerard.

"Hmm, give me a day or two to think about it," he laughed awkwardly, "just to make it official, yes Frank I will." The two laughed awkwardly.

"I brought that CD you liked. Ya'know, the Green Day one." Gerard smiled, breaking the awkward silence that had begun to fall.

"Yey!" Frank squealed with excitement as Gerard handed him the CD and he placed it in his CD player, music beginning to flow from the speakers.

"Like I said before Gee, your awesome." Frank giggled, kissing Gerard's cheek. Gerard grinned at the smaller boy who laughed lightly. "I swear to god there's something wrong with your hormones! One minute your staying as far away as possible from me the next your as close as possible!" Frank laughed as Gerard grabbed his waist and pulled him onto his lap.

"Ya'know I think your right!" Gerard laughed, holding out Frank's arm and planting kisses up it reaching his neck and pausing momentarily.

"I love you Frankie." Gerard whispered into his neck.

"I know you do, and I love you too Gee." Frank giggled hysterically as Gerard kissed different parts of his face then fell backwards, making Frank lay on him. Frank turned and began to kiss Gerard's soft, pale lips.

"Wait!" Gerard exclaimed, suddenly sitting up, "won't your mum hear us?" Gerard asked suddenly worried about Frank's mother.

"That's unlikely, she's at work, then she's got to go to a bussiness meeting which means she'll only be here for part of the afternoon. Basically we've got the house to ourselves all night and most of today and tomorrow. And the time she'll be at home she'll be mostly asleep." Frank grinned, excited.

"Oh right." Gerard grinned, laying back down as Frank turned to lean over him.

"Anything else or can we carry on?" Frank asked chuckling lightly as Gerard jokingly pulled a thoughtful face.

"Nope nothin'." He grinned before pulling Frank's face towards his and pressing their lips together, allowing their tongues to explore one another's mouths. Slowly, Gerard unbuttoned his shirt, revealing his cold scarred flesh. Frank stroked a long scar running from Gerard's left hand side shoulder down to his right hand side waist, marvelling at its size.

"That must've hurt." Frank whispered, still stroking the scar.

"That was the idea I was going for." Gerard muttered, stroking Frank's slightly dishevelled hair. Frank whimpered lightly.

"Hey but I've got you now! Your here to keep me sane." Gerard chuckled and kissed Frank's forehead, watching as he lifted himself up so he was sat upright onto of Gerard.

"I'm not the only one with hormone problems it would seem." Gerard laughed as Frank pulled off his misfits shirt.

"Kiss me you animal." Frank whispered playfully, giggling as Gerard followed his orders and pressed their lips together.

"Hmm too much clothing." Frank muttered, unzipping Gerard's jeans and tugging at them to reveal his Green Lantern underpants.

"And you said I was the one with hormone problems?" Gerard laughed as Frank pulled his own jeans down to reveal his Superman boxers.

"Just shut up Gerard." Frank smiled before growling playfully and dragging Gerard beneath his duvet.
