Keep Running

My heart pounded in my ears. What happened? What the fuck just happened? I almost died and I was saved by the man of my dreams. Gerard laid motionless beneath me. I pushed myself up, and got off him, soon my hands were cupping his cheeks as I laid his head in my lap. My phone. I needed my phone. I reached for it and red. Red was on my hand. Blood.

9-1-1. My fingers shook as I dialed the numbers, and held the phone to my ear. "A-Ambulance.. Quick.." I started, soon saying where my location was.

Within a few minutes, an ambulance was hauling ass towards me and Gerard in a hurry. I was so scared. But the boy beneath me, started to stir and soon he was looking up at me with those big, beautiful Hazel eyes. He smiled and reached up, gently stroking away my tears with his thumb. "I finally found you.. And here you were, right under my nose, Frankie.." He whispered so quietly. My eyes were filled with the salty liquid and falling onto Gerard's skin with each passing second. That's when people were pulled down a gurney and leaned close to my ear. "Sir, we have to get you and him immediate medical attention. Please let go of him. He needs our help.." They spoke to me. I nodded slowly, and then, Gerard was gripping onto my hand like a scared child.

I returned the favor, but I was beginning to get pulled away from him. I slowly and regretfully let go of the safe and comforting hand, and let myself be taken to another ambulance.

Not before long, I was being taken to the hospital, and after long begging to be in the same ambulance as Gerard, we were soon there and being escorted to different parts of the hospital. Gerard was being taken in for x-Rays on his head and entire body, while I was being taken in for question, blood tests, and to check to see if there were anything wrong with me.

While questions made their way into my ears, I didn't answer and just stayed unresponsive the whole time. But when they asked about Gerard, I answered; his birthday, age, name, family, everything I could remember about him telling me or things I've found out, I answered. Then, after an hour or so, I was let go. That's when my phone rang, Green Day filling the quiet and empty hospital hall.

"What the hell happened with you and Gerard?!" Was what I got greeted with as soon as I said hello. "Mikey, calm the hell down. You gotta wait for us to explain. It's a pretty goddamn long story and explanation coming your way and for me. Trust me. You have no idea how all this happened. Just, come to the damn hospital, Mikey," I sighed, hanging up as soon as Mikey started to yell at me. Again.

Once finding out where the other male was, I made my way to his room, my breathing harsh and anxiety kicking in as I got closer and closer. I knocked quietly, before hearing a soft, come in. I walked in, my hand immediately grabbing onto my other arm for mild support. His hair was the only thing colorful in the whole room, and it made me smile. I walked over, his hand reaching out and grabbing my own, making me release my grasp on my sweater.

"You're shaking," Gerard whispered, making me hold my breath. I looked down at our hands and held onto his with more force and strength. Comforting. He was looking at me as if he'd just seen God, and honestly, I could tell. I wasn't looking at him, but I can feel him staring at me in disbelief. It made me want to cry.

"Frank," Gerard started with a soft voice, "You're real. And I'm holding your hand. And you're my little brothers bestfriend. How the hell did I not see this. This is making think over everything," He laughed and winced shortly after. His head. I looked up immediately and reached up, cupping his cheek with my free hand and he leaned into it. He pulled on my hand, making me lean forward more so that I was sitting on the hospital bed. Gerard sat up and let go of my hand, then tangled it in my long hair, pulling me close to him by my neck.

Just before we were about to kiss, the door swung open and a loud voice erupted from the disturbance. "Gerard Arthur Way and Frank Anthony Iero!" Goddamnit Mikey. Why did you have to come now? I was about to kiss your fucking brother!

Gerard let go of my hair and held onto my hand instead, and I pulled back so that I wasn't close to his face. Mikey walked over, slapped me in my head, then punched Gerard in the arm, making both of us yell at him. "What the fu-ow!" "Mikey!" But we both silenced from the death glare he was giving us and looked down. "So what the hell happened to the both of you?" He asked angrily. Gerard and I glanced at each other with a look of uncertain, but I nodded and we started to speak.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"O-Oh.. So that's what happened. You guys, I'm so sorry for hurting you two. But Frank," Mikey looked at me with displeased eyes, "You could've told me about this Party Poison guy. I knew it was Gerard, but I didn't know you two even knew each other online. I could've helped you," He smiled and ruffled my hair, making me chuckle. "Right. I'll make sure to talk to you about this next time," I smiled.

Gerard squeezed my hand and I looked at him, our eyes met and I held his for a bit. Yup. This is my runaway man. This is my escape plan and personal support group. He's finally here, in my presence and he's real and I just, it's my best friends older brother. Oh, what the hell. What do I care?

I reached up and leaned forwards, tangling my fingers in the fire truck hair and pushed my lips to his with a swift motion, making both of us relax and tense at the same time. Then I pulled away, pecked his lips, pulled my hand to my face and giggled like a girl. That was my first kiss and honestly, that was the best thing ever. The way it felt to kiss someone you like so much, it just makes you want to die when there's nothing pressed against your own lips.

"And from this moment on, a new chapter begins with us," Gerard breathed and rolled his thumb over my knuckles. I nodded, glancing at him with a small and shy smile. This is going to be a whole new thing for me.
