Risky And Complicated, Confused And New

When I get out of the shower it's Gerard's turn.
"Hey they suit you" Gerard laughs gesturing towards his PJ's that I'm wearing.
"Thanks!" I say posing for him and laughing, he laughs too.
After Gerard's shower he comes into our room and closes the door. I'm sat on the floor and he comes to sit opposite me.
"So Frank. How're you feeling? Did you like my Mum's dinner, she's a good cook right?!"
"Yeh, so was mine" I sigh.
"I'm sorry Frank." Gerard looks at me feeling ashamed for mentioning Mum's and comes over to put his arm around me. "I'm sorry." He says again.
"It's okay. It's not like it's your fault is it?"
"No." He mumbles. "So, who are you friends with at school?" Gerard asks, changing the subject.
"Umm, noone anymore. I got into a big fight with Ray so they all hate me now."
"Oh yeh, I heard about that." Gerard says sadly, "But you'll make up, friends always do."
"No, no I don't want to. I didn't fit in with them anyway. I don't like them, I don't want to be their friends anymore."
"Oh well, I guess we could just be friends then. I don't have any others, I'm sorry."
"That's fine Gerard! We don't need anyone else!" I smile at him, nudging his arm.
"So have you ever had a girlfriend?" Gerard asks me.
"No, I don't think i ever will, I think I like boys so.."
"Oh." Gerard blushes, "Me too! My parents and brother don't know that though." He giggles, "Have you ever had a boyfriend?" Gerard asks with his eyes opening wide.
"No. You?"
"No."
"Cool." I grin.
"GERARD, FRANK TIME TO GET SOME REST NOW!" Gerard's Mum calls from across the hallway.
"Okay!" Gerard calls back. He stands up and gets into his bed and pats the space next to him for me to get in.
I get in and snuggle into the duvet with him.
"Goodnight Gerard." I whisper, turning off his bed-side lamp.
"Night night, Frank" he smiles back at me.
Before getting to sleep I dare myself to reach over to kiss his cheek. I feel his cheeks get warmer as my lips touch them. "Since we're sharing a bed." I laugh, turning over to put my back to him.
"Haha, Frank just because we're sharing a bed doesn't mean we're married or something" He giggles, I can hear the smile in his voice.
"Oh well." I laugh, "let's get some sleep now."
"Okay!" Gerard answers before we both fall to sleep.
