Frank's POV
A few weeks later

After a thorough discussion with Gerard, we've decided to send the wedding invitations out.We have everything sorted out, invitations printed, decorations all picked out, and we even have the cake topper. We chose to get black cards with a white line boarding it in a wispy fashion. The text is all written in white as well, and there's a red rose at the bottom of the card.
"It looks like something you'd give at a funeral,"
Gerard scrunched his nose at the first sight of it, but I called back with,
"It is- a funeral for the 'single' relationship status."
He looked at the piece of paper differently ever since.

I walk into the Way household triumphantly, as Gerard greets me from the kitchen.
"They're all sent?"
"Yep, every one of them, off to tell the news of me getting married to some dork named... oh shit what's his name... Gerald Gay?"
"Shut up, Frank,"
"At least I got the last part right,"
He sticks his tongue out at me, and I return with a goofy smile and giggle.
"Anyways, I paid extra for them to get to everyone tomorrow; the sooner the better, right?"
"Right. Now come here."
Gerard stuck out his arms, beckoning me to join him at the table.

I was back in school now, no sign of my father. My teachers understood the situation, and have helped me catch up on all of my work as much as possible. Gerard's been helping with my homework, and acting almost like a tutor for me. I've never really noticed how intellectual he was before he started to explain even the most complicated equations so simply.

"Babe, I have to do my homework."
He makes an irritated 'hmph', then I hear the chair move across the tiled floor. I feel his arms snake across my body, and his chin rest on my left shoulder.
"Need help?"
"Yeah, actually..."
I turn to face him, and place my arms around his neck.
"But not with school work."
He smirks and leans into me, giving me a passionate kiss. His hands trail to the back pockets in my jeans, and feel him squeeze my ass. I smile into the kiss, and tug at his hair. He lets out a soft moan, and suddenly walks away.
"Hey-! Where are you going?"
I can tell I sound frustrated, and I know he can too.
"Do your homework, and maybe I'll reward you after."
He walks away sassily, like how he usually does when he's teasing me.
"Fuck you,"
"Something you aren't doing if you don't get that homework done, mister!"
Right after, I hear the door shut, signaling he's gone downstairs. Asshole.

The next day

I was exhausted. I finished my homework in less than an hour, and you can leave the rest to your imagination.
"Frank, baby, get up- we have to go to school. It's Friday, so you can sleep in tomorrow."
I sigh, and take my time getting ready. We leave in time so that we're about 15 minutes early. Gerard and I make our way to homeroom, but something, someone is standing in our path, looking like Satan himself.
"Gerard... go to class, I'll deal with this."
"Have fun,"
I see Gerard rush off to homeroom out of the corner of my eye, and I take a deep breath.
"Hey, Jamia-"
"You're getting married??"
I notice her fists clench up, and I laugh inside.
"Yes, I'm getting married. I'm happy, and this is what we both want. You don't own me, Jamia."
I start to walk past her, and hear her make a last remark.
"You're going to regret that, Frank."
I keep walking, and head to class.

Notes

HEY I'M BACK! So I have an excuse- medical issues are very complicated right now, scheduling surgery (finally) so I'll try and post as much as possible. Thank you all for sticking with me!
