Accidents Happen, I guess
It's Bye For Now
Tuesday 15th June 2004
Sooner or later, Frank knew it was going to happen. He just wished it was later rather than sooner. Gerard was leaving for a week or so to go back to New York. His Manager called him to let him know there was a gallery event that he could in no way miss. Gerard seemed very reluctant to leave but he couldn’t avoid it.
Frank drove to Mikey’s house and when he entered the house he was met with the sight of Gerard and his bags packed by his feet. He felt his eyes sting, fucking hormones, and he caressed his stomach lightly. It soothed him, he couldn’t wait until the baby could kick.
Gerard looked up when he heard the door open and smiled when he saw Frank walk in,
hand on his slightly raised tummy. It was an adorable sight to him and he felt warmed by it.
“You’re leaving already?” Frank asked, his voice shook slightly and if Gerard hadn’t paid
attention he wouldn’t have caught it but he did. His face softened when he saw Frank had tears in his eyes.
“Yeah… Mikey’s just making me a coffee mug to go and then I’m going. But it’s only for a week then I’ll me right back here.” Gerard said in reassurance and walked over to the smaller man to wrap his arms around him. Frank sniffled into Gerard’s shoulder and hugged back.
He knew he was being silly but he was going to miss the older man a lot. They have grown close in the small amount of time Gerard spent in New Jersey.
Mikey walked into the room and sighed when he saw Frank was holding back his tears. He cleared his throat lightly and Gerard looked up but didn’t let go of Frank until Mikey held his coffee cup up to him.
Frank wiped at his eyes when he was released and exhaled deeply. He knew his friends would try and keep him as occupied as possible whilst Gerard was gone. God, he made it sound like they were a couple, which they weren’t. Sadly.
What made it worse was Frank had an appointment for his next ultra-scan during the time Gerard was in New York but since the dates crossed over he had to book it for when he came back. Gerard wasn’t expecting him to do that and was extremely touched when Frank told him.
Gerard looked at his watch and sighed. Mikey clapped him on the back, never liking his brother leaving and Frank felt his bottom lip wobble slightly. Seriously, hormones were bitches.
They walked out to Gerard’s car and Mikey helped him put his bags in the trunk. The journey was about 2 hours with little to no traffic so it wasn’t an extremely long journey. He would make it just after noon.
Gerard gave Mikey a hug before turning to Frank who gave him a watery smile. Gerard wrapped his arms around the smaller man and pulled him into his chest, loving that he was finally taller than someone, Mikey decided to be a douche and grow a few more inches than him. He also loved the feeling of Frank in his arms, he felt like he was protecting the smaller man and his unborn child.
“I’ll be back before you know it. Promise to stay out of trouble and look after the little one while I’m not here?” Gerard pulled Frank away from him to see his face and Frank smiled up at him slightly.
“I promise to stay out of trouble and look after the little one. Promise to call when you get there?” Frank asked quietly and his smile grew when Gerard promised to call him.
Before Frank knew it Gerard was hopping in his car and driving away, he watched as the car grew smaller and smaller until it was gone altogether. Mikey put his arms around Frank and pulled him into a hug, which the smaller man gladly accepted.
“Wanna eat ice cream and watch Nightmare before Christmas?” Mikey offered and Frank nodded, a smile growing on his face again.
“Hell yeah, I’ll never say no to NMBC.” Frank giggled and let Mikey lead him into the house.
