31 Days

(Gerard's POV)

For the rest of the day frank and I hang out with the guys, playing video games on Mikey's play station he got for Christmas last year.

Around 8 pm everyone is winding down, "so you guys gonna stay over here tonight?" Mikey asks, still looking at the t.v screen.

"I can't, My mom said something about being home tonight because tomorrow we are having 'family time'" Bob says, rolling his eyes.

Ray says he could probably stay, just as long as he texts his parents the plan. I look down at Frank who is sitting in front of me on the floor, me on Mikey's bed. His hair is a little messed up and sticking out everywhere from when Ray had thrown a pillow at him to distract from the game. I smile slightly and reach out and fix a few strands, flattening it for him. He leans into the touch, never taking his eyes off of the screen, before saying, "I could most likely stay, mom doesn't get off work until 11 again. And I really don't want to go so..."

Ray and Mikey share a look and snicker, I just roll my eyes at their idiot-ness.

"Ohhhhhh.... And why is that dear Frankenstein?" Bob asks, smirking.

"First off, don't call me Frankenstein, secondly, because I want to spend time with Gee." He replies casually. I find myself smiling wide and when I look over at the guys to see their reaction Mikey is smirking at me and wiggling his eyebrows suggestively. Wait, they think....

I blush a deep red and silently grab a pillow from behind me, and smack him in the face hard with it.

"HEYYYY NOT COOL GEE" he yells, seeing as the pillow to the face distracted him and he lost.

"You deserved it." Frank speaks again, oh god he noticed the eyebrow thing too.

30 minutes later, Bob has to leave so we all turn off the game and walk downstairs to see him to the door. After he leaves, we all pile onto the couches in the living room and pick out a movie to watch. We all agreed it had to be horror but we all had different preferences as to which horror movie to watch. Frank and I both agreed on The Ring while Ray and Mikey wanted It.

Eventually Frank and I won, mostly because we said that if we watched our choice we would buy the pizza. I go and make the call, ordering 3 large pizzas, one vegetarian (for Frank), one pepperoni, and one meat lovers.

The pizzas arrive and we dig in, watching the screen intently. Towards the end, near the part where the main character is in the well, a jump scare happens and due to my intent and focus on the screen I jump, squeaking involuntarily. Frank wraps his arm around me as we snuggle on the other couch, offering a silent 'I won't let anything get you' support.

When the movie finishes, I'm dying of thirst and Apparently so is Frank because we both get up to head towards the kitchen. I grab a glass and fill it with water and ice, taking a sip in relief.

As I walk back into the living room, I see Ray and Mikey on one couch. Now, that wouldn't be all that unusual.... If they weren't staring into each others eyes like they were about to make out or something.... I slowly crept out and back into the kitchen where Frank was grabbing a drink for himself when they did in fact start kissing

"Why do you look like you just saw a ghost or something?" He asks casually, resting his elbows on the counter and resting his head on his hands.

All I could do was stand wide eyes, glancing at the living room door, and pointing randomly trying to make sense of everything... Mikey never told me he was bisexual....

Frank raises an eyebrow in confusion, and when I finally made some things connect I choke out, "My brother is kissing his best friend in the living room.... My brother is bisexual and I never knew... " I plop down onto one of the stools beside Frank. He wraps an arm around my waist as I rest my head on his shoulder.

"Well, is that a bad thing?" He asks.

I reply immediately, "No, it's just surprising, especially not knowing until I walk in on a make out session."

He giggles a cute little giggle before saying "Well, Now that we know they can't exactly make jokes about us being gay anymore now can they?"

"Well, they don't know that we know... But you're right." I chuckle, closing my eyes and relaxing at how comfortable it is to snuggle against him and talk. We've only been kinda dating for barely a day but I think because of the years of best friendship it feels like we've been together a while. I mean, we haven't even gone on an actually date yet.

"What are you thinking about now?" He asks softly, looking down at me.

I glance up at him and smile before closing my eyes again and answer, " just how comfortable you are to snuggle with"

We sit there for a few minutes before I yawn rather loudly.

"Aww wittle Gee is tired" Frank coos at me. I stick my tongue out at him and stand up, walking hesitantly towards to living room door. I can hear Franks footsteps behind me as I slowly open the door, and peek inside.

Ray is lying on the couch, asleep, while Mikey is snuggled into him, also asleep.

I internally sigh in relief before continuing into the room, grabbing my phone along with Franks off of the coffee table trying to be as quiet as possible. I walk back into the kitchen and follow Frank down the basement stairs and into my bedroom.

I crawl onto my bed, still in my pajamas from this morning, and shuffle into the corner a little more, giving Frank room to lie next to me. He jumps into bed as well, turning the bedside lamp off and we sit in silence for a minute, listening to each other's breathing.

"Frankie?" I whisper out, breaking the silence.

"Yea Gee?" He whispers back in reply. I can feel the bed move a little so I know he shifted so he's facing me now.

"C-can you hold me?" I ask, feeling slightly embarrassed at the request. He doesn't answer, but scoots closer to me, and wraps an arm around my waist, pulling me even closer to his warm body. I can tell our faces are near inches apart from the feeling of his hot breath fanning out against mine.

"Gee..." He starts, looking me in the eyes. "S-sorry if this is too soon or anything but-" he leans in a presses a soft kiss to my lips. I'm a little stunned for a second before I kiss back, enjoying how his soft warm lips feel against my own.

We break apart, panting slightly as we stare into each others eyes, before I finally say, "right on time if you ask me..." And we both giggle.

I wrap my arm around his waist, his still on mine, and nuzzle my face into his neck, breathing in his sweet sent. We both fall asleep like that, listening to each other's breathes, and the last remembered thought passing threw my mind is Frank Iero was my first kiss... Holy shit

I wake up wrapped tightly in the blanket, alone. Feeling well rested and surprisingly happy, I slip out of bed, stretching wildly, before I notice something new sitting on my desk.

A rose, plastic and painted black, is sitting along with a note.

Put the clothes on and meet Mikey in the kitchen.
-F

I glance over to the left to see he had laid out my favorite band tee, some extra tight, black ripped skinny jeans along with a black studded belt which is Franks.

I pull on the clothes, along with my shoes, brush my teeth and hair in the bathroom, and skip up the stairs and into the kitchen to see Mikey casually sitting at the counter playing on his phone.

"Hey mikes," I say, standing in front of him on the other side of the counter. He looks up, slipping his phone back into his pocket and tells me to follow him.

He leads me out the front door, down the drive way and to the sidewalk, stopping abruptly and turning around on his heals.

"Okay, so... How ya doin?" He asks simply.

"Oh I'm fine," not really kinda "except there's this one thing kinda buggin me..." I trail off, wondering if I should bring it up now.

"Which is?"

"Oh you know... I kinda walked in on my friend and my brother making out on the couch and I didn't even know he liked guys so..."

His eyes nearly pop out of his skull, his breath hitching and he freezes instantly.

"I-I umm.. Gee.." He stutters not knowing how to reply.

"I'm perfectly fine with it, just wished you would have told be before I walking on you guys..." I say, dismissing the topic completely.

We sit in silence for maybe 2 minutes before Mikey's phone beeps, making me jump slightly. He chuckles at me before answering.

"Hey.." He listens to the person on the other side of the phone.

"Yea he's here with me..." Another silence.

"On the curb like you told me asshole," by now I figure out the other person is obviously Frank.

"Okay okay," he pauses, having been interrupted by Frank, "yep, got it." He finishes, hanging up and turning to face the road, gesturing me to do the same.

I raise an eyebrow in question but comply either way. Suddenly I hear the roar of a motor and when I turn my head to see where the source of the noise is I see Frank, sporting sunglasses, driving a bright-ass red Mustang.

I giggle as he pulls up, climbing out of the car and onto the sidewalk I front of us.

"whelp, I did my job, bye bitches" Mikey calls out, already turning and walking back up to the house.

I turn my head back to see Franks grinning at me, I wouldn't see his eyes through his sunglasses but I could tell he was looking me over. I shift uncomfortably and he raises a hand out to me, not saying a word. I smile and take it, letting Frank lead me to the passenger side of the car. He lets go of my hand and open the door for me, gesturing for me to get in. I giggle and as I pass him and sit down I let out a "Oh you cheesy motherfucker,".

I watch as he rounds the car, getting in and starting the car.

As we drive out of my neighborhood, he finally talks. "Gee?"

I look at him, and answer with a simple "yea?"

"When was the last time you went to the arcade?" His mouth splitting into a grin as he keeps his eyes on the road.

I automatically think of the story I had written about my first date, well.... Our first date. I had written that we would hang out at the arcade, playing games, Frank would be extremely funny and sweet, not that he isn't already.

I don't bother answering, knowing it is a rhetorical question. But what does happen is I smile widely, looking down at my lap, playing with the sleeves of my hoodie.

Notes

Okay, so I know I said this was gonna be the date chapter... But as I was writing my mind needed to add a few things... And eventually I had no time or space to write about the actual date, BUT... I'm working on that chapter right now, as we... Chat... So I'll try to again today.


Im also sorry for the wait, again, on a week vacation with rare times do I have wifi.... *internal scream for help*
