Frankie Baby

I huddled closer to Gerard attempting to get warmer from the cold. It had been an especially chilly birthday and autumn was in full swing. The colors of the leaves were astounding. Vibrant red and shocking yellow leaves scattered the ground in small clumps. I sighed and wrapped my arms around his waist. I attempted to not allow any body heat go to waste. My lips were still tingling from the previous kiss we shared. It was weird , how two complete opposites collided. The kiss was like i had been shocked by lightning , in a good way of course. My skin became over sensitive and my body was singing with energy. I sighed and breathed in his cologne. Gently he squeezed me in reponse.
“g-gerard?” I still couldn’t believe i still stuttered around him. I mean he was my boyfriend , I should be comfortable. But i honestly couldn’t help it , he made me horribly nervous.
“Yeah honey?” he responded while kissing my head. My heart trembled at any type of kiss givin to me by Gerard. “i-im sorry about being mean to you all the time. I didn’t mean any of it ,I guess i was in denial.” I shifted again uncomfortably and closed my eyes in relief. I really was meaning to owe him an apology. He chuckled and rubbed my back. “I would say sorry but half the things I really did mean.” he whispered into my ear , biting my earlobe. I shuddered slightly and probably half the blood in my body rushed to my cheeks. I swallowed nervously , “w-what do you mean?” I whimpered out. He kissed my neck gently causing me to shiver again except with more force. He chortled slyly. “When I say you look sexy on your hands and knees,” he purred, rubbing the side of my thigh , getting closer to my butt. I won’t deny the fact that my heart started pounding at a faster pace and my breathing accelerated slightly. When he finally got to my ass , he squeezed gently causing me to squeak. “ I really do mean you look sexy on your hands and knees.” he chuckled again before I slapped his chest. “Gerard! You horny , cheeky bastard!” I squeeled as I sat up facing him. My face turned even more red. I don’t know what my problem was with excessive blushing , it was really a normal thing for me. He laughed and winked. “I won’t deny that baby.” Then he leaned foward and placed a quick kiss on my pouting lips. “Lets go grab somethin’ to eat , I know a great place , AND ill pay cause its your birthday.” I laughed dryly and slipped off of his lap , before helping him up. Once he got up he threaded our fingers together. I laughed internally at the sight it would have been to see us holding hands. A slouching , badass greaser next to an uptight , skiddish nerd. But judging by the looks we got on the street my hypothesis was right. It was a few minutes before we walked up to a cute little diner. In neon letters the word “open” blinked on and off. There were huge windows that allowed you to see directly out of the diner. I smiled sightly when Gerard opened the door for me. The warmth of the diner greeted me like a warm embrace. We walked in and the most gorgeous pinup i’ve ever seen smiled at us.
“Hey there Lyn-z” Gerard said grinning his million dollar smile.
“Hey Gee.” she grinned back. “Table for two?”
“yeah that’d be great.” he stroked his thumb over my hand , making my heart flutter. We followed Lyn-z to an empty table next to a window. I slid into the slightly dirty and cracking blue cushioned seats. I stared at the table and the engravings in it. It was cliche hearts with initals inside of the badly carved hearts.
“would you guys like somethin’ to drink?”
“coffee” i blabbed out immediatly , without thinking. I looked up to see Lyn-z with eyebrows raised and a smirk growing on her red lips. My face grew hot again , “sorry.” i quietly said , my gaze going back to the table. Suddenly , I felt Gerard’s hand cover mine. “Yeah , i’d like one too.” he said before muttering a thanks to Lyn-z and picking up a menu. I picked up a menu as well and scanned the options settling on a vegitarian wrap. I peeped up from the huge menu and found Gerard staring right back from across the table. His eyes only showing from the top of the menu. His eyes were all scruntched up signifying he was smiling. I smiled back and giggled lowering the menu.
“You’re the biggest loser.” I laughed before kicking him lightly under the table. He lowered his menu as well and laughed gazing into my eyes.
“Sorry I was just admiring the view..” he drawled , staring at me like he was overly in love. He tilted his head so it was resting in in his hand. I laughed “Yeah , you’re definetly the biggest loser I know , aside from myself.” I laughed embarassingly loud at my own joke. He chuckled and shook his head before Lyn-z came with our two coffees. I sighed into the first sip , ignoring the scalding temperature. Gerard just stared in awe , which I was confused about.
“Do you guys know what you want?” she asked redily , pen and notepad in hand.
“I’ll uh have the um vegatarian wrap..” I drifted off. “Oh , please.” I added quickly.
“Yeah , so ill have a burger with fries.” Gerard said with less politeness. Lyn-z nodded her head then walked off to place our orders. Gerard turned to me and quirked an eyebrow.
“So , you’re vegatarian?” After that conversation flowed easily , slowly we learned more and more about eachother. I discovered that he was in love with “tuff” cars and his leather jacket was his prized possession , next to me of course he added with a wink. When our food came we were laughing about the prank Gerard pulled on Mrs.Havelaster freshman year.
“Alright , I gotta take a piss.” Gerard stated proudly before retreating fro, the table leaving Lyn-z setting out the food. I jumped when she replaced Gerard , sitting across from me.
“So , you guys seem pretty shacked up , whats with you and Gee?” Before I could respond she interjected. “What are you one of his millionth one night stands?” Oh. I blushed and traced the engravings on the table. Slightly annoyed that she practically pounced on the subject and called me a one night stand. “N-no im his uh boyfriend..” I muttered quietly. She laughed humorlessly.
“You really are?” she asked skeptically.
“I um yeah.” I said quietly again running my fingers over the letters “F” and “C”.
“Well , you better be careful with him , hes a um- loose cannon. He doesn’t really stick to the whole “relationship” thing.” she blabbed. I sighed in response , knowing she was true. My mind flashed back to last year , how i saw him with one girl one period. Then the next kissing another girl the very next period. I couldn’t help but feel the twist in my stomach when realization washed over me. But he made a promise to me that it wouldn’t be a huge fuck up. He’s good at keeping promises , right? He seemed pretty serious when he promised so I quickly brushed off the feel of unease.
“ I uh ok , thanks.” I murmered at the table. She patted my hand before getting up. I sighed and poked at my wrap suddenly not hungry anymore. He promised to me that he wouldn’t mess up , that this wouldn’t be a failure. The sincerity and trust in his eyes could not be faked in my opinion , so i picked up the wrap and took a bite. I forgot about the hestiation when Gerard emerged from the bathroom with a new formed curl on his forhead. I giggled at how he must’ve been in there probably doing the curl. When he sat down he smiled at me and threw a fry in my direction, hitting me square in the nose. I sqawked at the fry flying in my direction. I fixed him with a playful glare and picked up a fry from my plate and launched it at him. He laughed loudly. “Ok ok I’m sorry , I dont want to start a food fight on our first date.” he chuckled then took a bite of his burger. A comfortable silence fell over us , neither of us feeling the need to speak. Our meal passed quickly and eventually Gerard payed for the bill but only with some convincing kisses. When we exited the diner and the familiar chill flowed through right through my thin long sleeved shirt. I shivered which Gerard took into notice. He stopped walking and released my hand , pulling one arm from his leather jacket.
“Gerard , don’t you dare give me your jacket.” I said calmly. He looked at me crossly.
“why? I want to give it to you. You’re shivering , i can handle the cold.”
“But your going to be col-” He cut me off with a kiss. When he pulled away he kept his face close to mine.
“Im going to give you my jacket.” he said with a playful strict voice while slipping off the rest of his jacket. I just pouted and let him up the jacket on me , leaving him in a tight grey v-neck that showed off his muscules. It smelled like him and it was still warm from him. The jacket was comfortable but slightly long , it went past my hands. I sighed and he kissed me again “Don’t act like your not thankful.” he smirked then quickly kissed me again taking my hand in his. After a little walking around town i noticed he was staring at me smugly , like he was proving someone right.
“What?” I asked curiously. He just laughed and squeezed my hand , a now familiar action.
“I just knew it..” he said unfinishing his sentence.
“Knew what?” I pushed.
“That my jacket would fit you like that.” he laughed stopping his walking , pulling me close.
“So you imagined me wearing your jacket?” i giggled out , suddenly giddy that he thought of me like that before all this.
“Yes, along with other things.” he smirked leaning down and kissing me deeply before I could say anything. I smiled behind the kiss , this was definetly the best Birthday ever.
