[Gerard's P.O.V]

Surprisingly I was the first to wake, I thought I’d be shattered after that eventful night and not only that it was still dark out. After adjusting to the darkness everything washed over me, I sat up and looked down towards Frank’s peaceful, resting figure. Wow. I would’ve never taken a hard-core punk rocker like himself to be so… submissive; not like I’m complaining at all, he was unbelievably hot. I took in his features one last time before realty came over, my legs having a mind of their own and lifting me off the bed. I knew obviously that this was probably considered a one night stand, even if deep down I wanted something more, that won’t be the case and I’m not going to be naïve and fragile with my emotions towards him. Fully dressed and silent about everything I did, I hurriedly left the house, I felt bad but it probably hurts way less than being woken up by him to just thrown me out half-dressed/half naked.

Guiltiness was soon fading after I bought a coffee from a 6A.M café that was open downtown, I sat silently in the warm shop by the window and as I stared out I saw the blue sky gradually reveal itself from behind the dark, dusty clouds. I sighed out a breath and brought my attention back to the shop, I looked around and watched the girl wipe over the tables with her dirty rag. As I inspected her I saw the Iron maiden top that hung loosely from her shoulders, smiling tiny, she looked over at me. Her natural brown hair was wrapped up in a bobble and her posture was casual and not intimidating at all.
“Are you needing anything else?”
Her voice was soft yet quiet, she walked over and smiled before pointing towards my almost empty cup.
“I’ll do it on the house seeing as you’re literally the earliest and only customer here.”
My smile grew before I nodded.
“Well if you’re offering, that’d be dandy. Thank you.”
“No worries, I’m Lynn by the way.”
After throwing the rag over her shoulder she extended her hand, I took it and smiled at her before shaking it, going to my feet.
“It’s cool to meet you, I’m Gerard. Also, sorry you caught me staring, I just saw your shirt and was intrigued by you.”
Our hands released.
“Oh… so you weren’t checking me out?”
As my cheeks flushed she laughed small, the tone sounding mockingly yet slipped into a fond chuckle.
“Hey! Sorry, I was only joking. I’m actually gay so.”
Thank god for that. I would not have known what to do if this escalated.
“That’s good to hear, me too actually.”
She just smiled before walking to the back behind the counter, I followed and waited by it while I watched her brew the coffee.
“I’m guessing you’re new, right? I’ve never seen you around before.”
As her hands adjusted the knott on her apron as she started up coffee machine, as she nodded her hair bounced gently.
“Yeah, I’m going to be attending that school, Belleville”
“Ah, I go there. It’s okay, typical school.”
After a moment she handed me the coffee to go and after the goodbye’s, getting one another numbers to hang out some time during the Christmas holidays deciding it’d be cool to get to know each-other, I left to go home and concealed into my bedroom for the rest of my day, secluding myself at my desk and fantasized with my art.

Notes

Kinda got writers block with this chapter so I'm sorry it's not the best, I'll try to also update soon this week. Sorry I didn't last week, school was in the way.
