Hold On Tight and Don't Look Back

Gerard’s P.O.V

“Okay I’m going to go back home real quick and get clothes for tomorrow” I told Frank.

“I’m going to make popcorn so we can put in a movie.” I grin and rush out of the house to get my stuff.

I feel kind of bad that his parents are out of the city but he says it won’t be any different from usual; which was still sad but true. He’s actually letting me spend the night and I’m so happy; I walk a little slower realizing I’m practically running down the street. Then Frank’s making popcorn and we can cuddle and I can hold his delicate little body close to mine just feeling his heartbeat…I stop mid walk and realize what I’m thinking. Ever since I met Frank something inside me has been growing; I’ve never felt this emotion before and it could only be one emotion…Love. But what if Frank doesn’t feel the same way; I mean I could just ask him but then my mind wanders to what he was thinking about earlier. He said he was thinking about me but we got interrupted by the phone. Before I know it I’m outside my house. I quickly rush inside and see my mom and Mikey watching T.V. again.

“Mom, can I spend the night at Frank’s house?” I ask hopeful. She looks to me and smiles,

“Sure, But it is a school night so don’t stay up to late.” I grin.

“Thanks mom” I cheer while running up the stairs. I grab an empty backpack and put clothes for tomorrow and my pajamas in it. Before I can rush out the door Mikey comes inside and closes it behind him.

“Hey” I object.

“You love him don’t you?” Mikey blurts out. I stop and look at him.

“What do you mean?” I ask lamely

“Mom can see it, I can see it. You’re head over heels for Frank” Mikey tells me.

I stare at him for a moment before I sigh. I think I am; Frank is like no other person that I’ve met. There’s something about him that makes me love him and I don’t know what. The way he looks at me makes my heart melt and the way he giggles, laughs, talks, the way he gets excited over something so small, just every little thing. When he blushes and smiles at the ground or plays with his hands when he’s nervous. Yes I was fine before I met Frank, I was happy; but meeting Frank gave a whole different side of happiness. I also hate to see him hurt or crying; the way my heart sunk when I saw him beat up in the restroom or when he had that dream where he was scared out of his mind. How my heart shattered not knowing what his life is like being bullied and to a point of sadness where he would want to hurt his beautiful body even though nothing was his fault. All of these things about Frank are what I love; Just Frank being himself around me makes me happier than anything.

“I think I do” I say to Mikey who is waiting patiently, Mikey smiles.

“We know already. I’m glad; Frank’s a cool dude and he makes you really happy”

“Okay now you’re sounding like mom” I complain, Mikey laughs and steps aside so I could go.

“I’ll see you tomorrow” I call to mom who waves goodbye. I then rush back down the street to his house. Once there I catch my breath considering I was half running; I knock on the door and it swings open to see an overjoyed Frank.

“I didn’t think you were coming back” he jokes.

“Sorry, Mikey was talking to me again” I tell him, he grins at me and my heart flutters.

“Okay I’m going to get changed in my pajamas real quick, you pick out a movie and then you can change if you want” I nod and he heads upstairs.

I go over to the movie cabinet where a lot of horror movies are held and pick out The People Under the Stairs. I put the movie in and wait for Frank. A couple moments later he comes downstairs wearing dark blue sweatpants and a grey T-shirt. I stand up and admire him without him noticing; he looks at the movie that I put in and smiled.

“Good choice. Okay you can go change if you want?” I head upstairs and quickly change into my basketball shorts and light blue muscle shirt; when I go back downstairs Frank looks at me and smiles.

“So where’s that popcorn you promised?” I joke.

He laughs and heads to the kitchen; I sit down on the couch and get comfortable when Frank comes back with a big bowl of popcorn I pat my lap gesturing for him to sit there; He grins and reluctantly sits. Somehow in the middle of the movie we end up laying down on the couch than the original sitting up position we started with; I don’t think anyone minded. During the middle of the movie I looked down to Frank.

“So before we got interrupted by the phone, you said you were thinking about me?” I raised my eyebrow, He looked up to me.

“I was” he said with a smile.

“What exactly were you thinking about?” I wondered hoping to get a real answer, he sighed.

“I was thinking what a wonderful boyfriend you are” he said grinning, I could feel myself blush; it looked like he was telling the truth. I smiled down at him and kissed his forehead.

“You thought right” I joked, Frank giggled and my heart skipped a beat. I swear if he kept giggling I might end up having a heart attack from his cuteness. We turned back to the movie and watched silently while I played with his hair. When the end credits of the movie appeared I yawned. Frank looked up to me.

“I think it’s time to go to bed, it’s already 11:00 PM” I nodded and Frank sat up.

“Okay you go up to the bed” he told me but I looked at him confused.

“You’re not getting the couch!” I told him. He smirked.

“Who said I was taking the couch?” He stood up and grabbed my hand. It took me a moment before I realized what he meant….In the same bed. I mean I did the last time when he wanted me to stay, but this was overnight. We walked up to the bedroom and Frank laid down covering himself with the blanket. I hesitated before I did the same; Frank reached to his phone and set the alarm for 6:00 AM before placing his head back on the pillow. Facing the opposite direction Frank scooted back to the same position like last time; not spooning but really close. I couldn’t help but smile at the contact. I saw him close his eyes and a faint smile appear on his face too. In about ten minutes the small cute snores came from Frank and I looked at him; his hair fell over his face and I lightly tucked it behind his ear. Not wanting to say the words out loud in case he did hear I just said them in my head.

“I love you”

I closed my eyes and went into a peaceful sleep.
