Frank's POV

I got to school, dying to see Ray again. We found out that we're in most of each other's classes, which isn't good news for the teachers at all. I rushed down the halls, being bumped into a few times, which I don't mind since I'm short for my age, and it happens all the time. I got to my locker, shoved anything that needed to be shoved inside, and walked to homeroom, trying to seem more casual.
Once I stepped inside, a few kids were already seated; a brunette cheerleader, a few guys I hung out with last year but never made a friendship with, a couple other girls, and- wait- who's that? He has to be new, I'd never forget a beautiful face like his. I started to wander over to him to say hi, as soon as Ray jumped up from beneath the desks, while hitting his head.
"Hey!- Ow..." He whined while rubbing his head.
"Ray, man what's up? You okay?" I giggled at his face which was mixed with pain and laughter.
"I think so, my hair was sorta a barrier but it failed." We laughed and went to sit down, without greeting the new kid. Damn.

Role was taken, and the newbie was the last on the list.
"Gerard Way?" The old teacher called out, looking around.
"Here" He replied, looking tired and bored.
"Gerard Way... I'm going to make a friend or more out of you..." I thought to myself. I pondered at all the cool things we could do, and basically the entire class period, I spent staring at this guy. He was the definition of perfect. He looked over a few times, making eye contact, which was awkward as hell. He'd blush, which made me smile, and we'd continue the cycle. He had almost shoulder length black hair, a very shy personality about him, and had the best smile ever. He looked up again as soon as Ray nudged me, taking me out of my trance.
"Already have a crush on Gerard over there, Frankie?" He mocks, but I just blush and laugh a bit.

Class ended, and I was staring down Gerard. He got up, so I got up, and once he was out the door, I sprinted to talk with him.
"HEY!- I mean.. um.. hey, I'm Frank" I say awkwardly, giving him an uncomfortable smile and reaching out my hand.
"Hi, Frank...I'm Gerard," He says, smiling, and shaking my hand. "So, Frank, why were you staring at me the entire lesson?" I could tell he was trying not to smile, so it seemed he enjoyed the attention. But how the hell do I respond to that??
"Well, um, I saw you were new, and...Wanna come over to my house after school?" I didn't exactly plan on inviting him over, but as soon as it left my mouth, I was pleased with what I said.
"I'll have to tell my brother first, but yeah okay sounds fun!" There's that smile again! I swear he'll be the death of me...
"Okay, I'll meet up with you after school out front and we'll walk together." I say, happiness written all over my face.
"Okay, cool! I gotta get to class now, see ya later" He runs off, almost skipping? He seems really excited, but I have no room to talk- I'm ecstatic! I run to my next class, ready to get out of this place and hang out with Gerard.
