All the way with the boys in the bands.
Mikey, Still It's Better To Pretend
"Promise me?" Frank whispered, holding up a small golden band with their names engraved in them that brought tears to Gerard's eyes.
"Oh Frankie." Gerard whispered, letting Frank slid the ring on his finger. "I love you." Gerard smiled, taking the other ring and sliding it on Frank's finger.
"I love you too." Frank beamed, kissing Gerard slightly on the cheek.
"Ooooh." Three voices cooed at the same time, each tumbling out into the bedroom one after the other. Gerard and Frank's faces both flushed an awful red color and Frank cursed under his breath, muttering about never getting any privacy around here.
...
"Why can't we be like Frank and Gee?" Gabe whined, pulling on Mikey's sleeve.
"You know why." Mikey sighed, pushing up his glasses and leaning against the wall of his poster-clad bedroom.
"But don't you like me?" Gabe asked, resting a hand on the side of Mikey's face.
"Yeah...I do." Mikey murmured, instinctively leaning into Gabe's touch.
"But you love Pete, huh?" Gabe was so close Mikey felt like he was suffocating in the smell of cologne and sweat. Not that that was a problem, of course. Mikey nodded, his eyes fluttering shut on their own accord. He couldn't bring himself to talk, afraid he'd let his emotions spill out if his mouth.
"What if I were to change your mind?" Gabe breathed, stepping impossibly close to Mikey, towering over the younger male as he pressed their lips together. Together, their lips connected in a dance only the two of them knew. No tongue was involved as the sealed the promise and Mikey sighed happily when Gabe pulled away. It was so wrong but Mikey needed it. He needed Gabe's closeness as much as he needed Pete's sweetness. He needed the both of them so fucking much.
Still love this story.
