*one month later, September third.*

"Frank 'cmon, your gonna be late!" Linda yelled down the stairs, rolling her eyes a bit. Leave it to Frank to wake up early every day except the first day of school. All she got in response was a groan and the creaking of a bed. She laughed lightly, closing his bedroom door and walking away. Frank sleepily got out of bed, stumbled over to his light switch, and switched it on. He flinched and covered his eyes a bit, picking up a Ramones shirt and pulling it over his head. Next he put on a pair of black skinny jeans, finding socks and then slipping his feet into his old converse. He slowly made his way up the stairs, rolling his eyes and mumbling,
"Fucking school," before he exited his room.

Franks eyes widened when he saw Gerard sat at his kitchen table, drinking coffee and talking with his mother.
"Gee?" He asked, walking over to his boyfriend with a raised eyebrow.
"Hey Frankie." Gerard said, a smile spreading out on his face. He knew Frank was nervous about going to a new school, even though he'd never admit it. And that's why he was there, he wanted to make sure Frank would be ok. Him and Mikey had become great friends over the summer, so Gerard knew he'd be alright during the day.
"What're you doing here?" Frank asked, taking a seat next to Gerard at the kitchen table. Gerard took hold of Franks hand under the table, squeezing lightly.
"I figured I'd be a nice boyfriend and give you a ride to school." He said, bumping his shoulder with Franks. Franks cheeks heated up and he looked down, making Gerard and his mother laugh.
"Guyyss." He groaned, burying his face in Gerard's shoulder. They always teased him when he blushed, purposefully saying things they knew would make his cheeks flame up.
"You'd better get going, school starts in twenty minutes." Linda said, a small smile on her face. She was so happy for Frank, that he'd found someone like Gerard. She knew that if it wasn't for Gerard, Frank would have taken the move a lot harder. So she greatly appreciated the boy, and the fact that him and Frank were absolutely adorable together definitely helped a bit.

"You sure you'll be alright?" Gerard asked, cupping Franks chin and looking straight into his eyes. Frank let out a small sigh, nodding lightly.
"I'll be fine Gee, just nerves I guess." He said, and Gerard nodded a bit before pressing their lips together. Frank kissed back immediately, hands resting on Gerards shoulders. He bit at Gerards lower lip, causing the red haired man to let out a breathy moan.
"You've got to go." He mumbled agaisnt Franks lips, pulling away and sitting back in his seat. A soft whine left Frank and he sat back, a pout on his lips. Gerard chuckeld, leaning over and pressing a short kiss on Franks lips, opening the door once he pulled away.
"C'mon Frankie, it won't be that bad." Gerard cooed, a small smirk on his lips. Frank groaned, getting out of the car and slinging his backpack over his shoulder.
"See ya later." He said, closing the door and walking up to his new school.

Frank had been wandering around the school for ten minutes looking for his first class, which happened to be English. It was when he ran into a guy with a huge afro did he get directions. Frank had gathered that the guys name was Ray Torro, he liked the Ramones, and they had Physics together second hour. He was pleased, to say the least. It was good to know that there was someone decent at this school other than Mikey. Once he finally found his English class he walked in, all the people in the room turning to look at him. The teacher stopped talking, and looked at him with a smile on her face.
"You must be Frank, welcome to our school. Feel free to sit wherever you want." She said kindly, and Frank let out a small relieved sigh. She wasn't mad he was late, that was a good thing. He walked towards the back of the class, scowling at the few kids that continued to stare at him as he walked. They all awkardly looked away, refocusing on the teacher. The rest of class went by slowly, the teacher talking about expectations and what they'd be doing this year.

"Frank!" Mikey yelled, waving Frank over to a small circular table. It was lunch time and there were people everywhere, pushing and running in every other direction. It made frank cringe internally, his old school wasn't nearly as bad. He made his way to the table, taking a seat next to Mikey and setting his tray down.
"Hey, Mikes." Frank greeted, poking at his veggie burger. He really hoped it would taste at least halfway decent, but he doubted it would.
"How's your day been so far?" Mikey asked, raising an eyebrow at Frank.
"It's been fine. Met a guy named Ray Torro, you know him?" Frank asked, searching the cafeteria for Ray and his fro. Mikey smiled, nodding his head, looking behind Frank.
"I see you've met Mikey, then." A voice said from behind Frank and he jumped, turning around in his seat.
"So you two do know each other." Frank said, and both guys laughed. Another guy walked over, taking a seat on the other side of Mikey. "Who's the new guy?" He said, ruffing his dirty blonde hair and smiling a bit at Frank.
"My names Frank." He mumbled, giving in and taking a bite of his veggie burger. The guy nodded and introduced himself aswell.
"I'm Bob." He said, starting to eat his own lunch. The four of them talked easily throughout lunch, and Frank found that he really liked Ray and Bob. They were cool dudes, that was for sure. They'd been shocked when Mikey told them that he was the guy dating Gerard, but they were totally fine with it. Once lunch ended they all went separate ways, Frank getting lost in the hallways again.

"How was your day?" Gerard asked, flopping down onto Franks bed. Frank giggled at this, doing the same so he was laying next to Gerard.
"It was alright. Met Bob and Ray, they seem pretty chill. Mikey and I have a few classes together." Frank told, resting his head on Gerards shoulder. Gerard smiled over at Frank, wrapping his arms around the shorter boy and pulling him closer. Frank snuggled into Gerards side, laying and arm over his stomach.

"That's good, baby." Gerard mumbled, tilting Franks head up and kissing him lightly. Frank nodded, curling back into Gerards side and closing his eyes. After a few minutes both of them were asleep, the sound of their breathing being the only one in the room.
