(Love)letters <<<ON HOLD>>>

When the boys came back downstairs they both had two bottles of what looked like vodka in their hands. “Hey Frank! Looks like you were wrong about what Mikey was gonna get.” Brendon said as loud as possible. “What was i gonna get?” Mikey asked him, all innocent. “Oh, you know what i’m talking about.” Brendon answered. Mikey just rolled his eyes and sat down, opening the first bottle. “I’m not drinking” Frank said immediately, he told them about his dad but he also told them that it wasn’t a problem if they’d drink. He just did not want to end up like his dad. Gerard got a sticky note and wrote ‘i won’t drink so that you won’t be the only one’ He gave it to Frank who whispered “you don’t have to do that, go have fun.” Gerard got another sticky note and wrote ‘i don’t need alcohol to have fun’ He gave it to Frank who whispered a “thank you”. in Gerard’s ear, once again sending chills down his back.

Gerard announced to the rest that he wasn’t drinking and they all just respected his decision. “Okay everyone i’m starting.” Brendon said “Ryan, truth or dare.” Everyone looked at Ryan who just said “truth”. “Okay, are you gonna say anything today or are you just gonna be quietly staring at us?” Ryan kept a straight face while answering. “Are you gonna be a smartass or are you gonna ask me a real question?” Everyone just clapped and cheered and counted it as a valid answer so it was Ryan’s turn now. “Lynn, truth or dare?” He asked her. “truth” she said. “How does it really feel, spending so much time with so many boys.?” She giggled. “Honestly, i haven’t thought about that at all, but now that you mention it. You guys smell gross and have the worst sense of humor.” She didn’t wait for a reaction to her answer and just said. “Frank, what are you gonna choose?” “Dare” he answered, better to do it now than when they got drunk and would make up some seriously humiliating dares. “Let me think” She said. She eventually dared him to do a karaoke version of American Idiot while playing air guitar the whole time. He got really into it and he was rocking it. And honestly, he wasn’t a bad singer at all.

He sat back down between Gerard and Ryan and asked Pete, who was already drinking way too much. “Truth or dare Pete” “Dare” he said without thinking twice. Frank giggled, Pete had just made the perfect mistake. “Okay.” Frank said, smirking at Pete. “Kiss Mikey” Mikey’s face went bright red. “What? No? This is not my dare! I’m not a part of this?” He said. “Well, looks like you are now!” Lynn said. “Mikey, you’re gonna have to do some stupid dare eventually” Pete said, Mikey glared at Frank and angrily said “Fine i’ll do it”. He turned his head to Pete who grabbed Mikey’s face and just gave him a small peck on the cheek before saying. “I kissed Mikey, lucky for me you weren’t specific enough.” Mikey looked like he just got rid of all the stress in his life but he was secretly quite offended that Pete wouldn’t really kiss him.

“Okay Gerard.” Gerard wrote ‘dare’ on his whiteboard and instantly regretted it. If his brother was really as close to Pete as Frank thought he was then Pete probably knew that Gerard kinda liked Frank. “Okay i got it” Pete said after a good minute. “You have to sit in Frank’s lap until we stop playing stupid games.” Gerard rolled his eyes. ‘that’s it?’ he wrote on his whiteboard. “I guess?” Pete answered. Gerard got up and sat in Frank’s lap, who immediately put his arms around Gerard’s shoulders, making him blush. Gerard would ask him to stop doing stuff like that to him but at times like these he was happy that he couldn’t talk. He grabbed his whiteboard and started writing while Frank was watching over his shoulder. ‘Mikes, truth or dare.’ he held the whiteboard up and Lynn immediately said. “Aww you guys have nicknames for eachother? Gee and Mikes? That’s so cute!” “Shut up” Mikey said, laughing at her. “truth, i don’t want any more dares.” Gerard grabbed Frank’s arm and used his sleeve to erase his whiteboard and wrote ‘What the hell is going on between you and Pete?”

Mikey blushed and looked down. “Honestly, apart from that kiss on the cheek, nothing that i know of.” He avoided looking at Pete and just said “Brendon” Brendon chose dare, of course. “Put on Gerard’s painting clothes and go outside pretending that you’re homeless. You’ll get ten minutes to get as much change as possible.” Brendon seemed to like that dare and Gerard went to get up to get his painting clothes. “NO!” Pete said. Gerard just looked confused. “Do not break your dare or i will find you a worse one, you can only get up if it’s an emergency.” Gerard rolled his eyes again, these people are gonna make him lose his eyes. “Don’t worry Gee, i found them. Mikey said while getting his brother’s clothes from the top shelf.” They were really wide and way too big, even for Gerard. So Brendon could easily put the pants on over his own skinny jeans. He put on the gray hoodie with the holes all over it and ran upstairs. The rest just waited in the basement and set their alarm for 10 minutes. Brendon walked through the door at about 11 minutes and proudly pulled about 2 dollars and a few pennies out of his pocket. He changed out of Gerard’s clothes and put them on the coffee table.

“Pete” Brendon said. “Uuughhh... truth” Pete answered. “Would you kiss Mikey on the lips, even if it wouldn’t be for a dare?” Pete looked at Mikey, who still refused to look at him and suddenly found his fingernails really interesting. “uhm… i guess i wouldn’t mind kissing him on the lips.” Pete said awkwardly. Mikey started blushing again, even though no one could really see his face, everyone could tell. “Those two need to get together” Frank whispered in Gerard’s ear. Gerard could feel Frank’s breath against his neck and his first instinct was to lean backwards. No one but Frank noticed. Frank moved slightly so he could sit with his back against Gerard’s bed so that he wouldn’t fall backwards.

“Okay” Pete said, “Brendon, i’m getting revenge on you.” Brendon laughed at him. “Dare. No one can humiliate me, i am never ashamed and i literally have no boundaries so good luck with that.” “Fine” Pete said. “Kiss Ryan. And more specifically, on the lips for at least 20 seconds, not a peck, a real kiss.” Brendon asked Ryan who probably only said he was okay with it because he was a bit tipsy already. Pete had the timer ready but they did not need it. Pete had to break the two apart after a minute. “Okay lovebirds, that’s enough.” he said, grabbing Brendon’s shoulders. “Oh yeah okay, sorry.” Brendon said giggling. Ryan blushed but put his head on Brendon’s shoulder. It had been less than a day but he had developed the biggest crush he’d ever had.

“Lynn” Brendon said. “Truth” She told him before he could start a sentence. “Okay fine, you have to rank all the guys, and yes that includes me, from least to most attractive.” “Easy” Lynn smiled. “okay least attractive, sorry Pete, then probably you, Brendon, uhh, then Gerard, Frank, Mikey and the hottest is definitely Ryan.” For some reason everyone thought this was hilarious because Brendon was almost a 100% sure that he was gonna be ranked as the hottest. “Okay my turn” Lynn said. “Mikey” Mikey let out a sigh and just said “dare” No one expected that and Frank started begging her with his eyes to get him to kiss Pete. “You gotta look Pete in the eyes and hold his hand, you can stop looking after that but you have to keep holding his hand until the game is over.” Mikey took a deep breath and decided to block everyone out. He looked up and Pete was already looking at him. He grabbed his hand and intertwined their fingers before he looked down again. “Good” Brendon and Frank said at the same time. They both really wanted these two to get together.

Gerard had somehow fallen asleep during the last two dares, no one, not one noticed it until Mikey asked his older brother truth or dare. Gerards head was resting on Frank’s chest and Frank didn’t even know it. “Let’s wake him up!” Brendon said. He filled one of the empty vodka bottles with water and emptied it above Gerard’s head, soaking not only Gerard but also Frank’s shirt in the process. The fear in Gerard’s eyes was priceless and everyone laughed at him. He wanted to get up to go change but Pete stopped him again. “Not an emergency, you’re not getting up.” Gerard just glared at him. “Okay Gee.” Mikey said “Truth or dare.” Gerard wrote the word ‘Dare’ and put his whiteboard down. “I’m gonna bend the rules” Mikey said. “Since you and Frank are both covered in water, you should take each other's shirts off and get under this blanket.” He threw a blanket at them and Gerard was now just glaring at his brother. He was not gonna back out though. He got his whiteboard and wrote. ‘I can’t get up’ But Pete told him that he could get up if it was for another dare, as long as he sat back down in Frank’s lap after it.

Gerard got up and helped Frank up. Guessing he was gonna take Frank’s shirt off first. He grabbed the hem and pulled it up. When the shirt was off, the first thing Gerard noticed were the tattoos. Frank had a whole chest piece and his stomach had birds and letters and Gerard just really wanted to draw it. He looked at Frank’s face and realized that Frank probably saw him staring at his tattoos. Frank totally ignored it though and he grabbed the hem of Gerard’s shirt. His fingers lightly touched Gerard’s skin and Gerard felt like he was gonna die. “Okay can you guys stop checking eachother out now so we can continue?” Mikey asked them. “Oh yeah sure” Frank said. He sat back down and Gerard sat in his lap, he avoided leaning back this time, that would be way too awkward to handle. Frank put the blanket over both of them.

Gerard got his whiteboard and wrote Ryan’s name down. “truth” Ryan told him. Gerard nodded and wrote down. ‘If the dweeb next to you asked you out, what would your answer be?’ He held the whiteboard up and read it out loud. “Okay, honestly, if Frank asked me out i would say no because he’s already taken.” Everyone just laughed at him, “Other side Ryan” Lynn just told him. “Ohhh Brendon, yeah i wouldn’t say no to him.” Ryan just stared at Brendon until Pete cleared his throat. “Oh... right” Ryan said “Let’s play a different game, i don’t like this one.”

Everyone agreed with Ryan until he came up with his ‘great idea’ “Guys, i wanna play spin the bottle” “Well i don’t ‘cause i don’t wanna kiss anyone in this room” Lynn said. “Yeah, me neither.” Mikey said, still looking down. “Okay, we both know that that’s a lie.” Brendon told him. “I mean, it’s like 3:30 so we should probably sleep, school tomorrow.” Mikey said. Gerard got his whiteboard and wrote. ‘let’s stay home, no one’s here anyways and Nana loves us’ Everyone just kind of agreed with Gerard, and Brendon and Ryan decided that everyone who wasn’t playing spin the bottle would sleep outside.

They got an empty vodka bottle and emptied the floor. And Mikey asked “Can i stop holding Pete’s hand and can my brother get out of Frank’s lap now?” Brendon stood up and smiled at them. “I was waiting for someone to ask this question. See, Mikey and Pete can stop holding hands because Lynn dared Mikey to hold Pete’s hand until the game was over. And it’s over.” Mikey let go of Pete’s hand, and Pete looked kind of hurt. “But Pete dared Gerard to sit in Frank’s lap until we’d stop playing stupid games, and spin the bottle is definitely a stupid game.”

Frank let out a sigh, which made Gerard very insecure. He got his whiteboard and wrote. ‘am i too heavy?’. He gave it to Frank who was shocked by his message. “No, why would you think that?” He whispered against Gerard’s neck. ‘That’s it’ Gerard thought ‘I’m done with this guy.’ He wrote ‘2 things’ showed it to Frank and erased it. ‘one- why did you sigh, do you dislike me that bad.’ He showed it to Frank and erased it again. ‘two- stop breathing in my neck, it’s distracting.’ “One” Frank started “I don’t remember sighing so you probably just imagined that.” Gerard rolled his eyes, no way he imagined it. “Two, i’ll try not to be distracting.” Gerard felt Frank’s breath on his neck again. Of course, ‘cause why listen, right? ‘I hate you’ Gerard wrote down. Frank stole his whiteboard and marker and drew a little heart on the whiteboard.

“I mean, we are about to start but if you guys wanna continue that die-hard flirting you can continue” Brendon said. Gerard hid his face in his hands, kind of ashamed that everyone was watching them. And to make it even worse Frank said. “Don’t worry, we’ll play.” They joined the circle and Brendon started talking. “Okay so i’ll start and whoever it lands on i’ll kiss, we’ll go clockwise so everyone gets to kiss someone!” Brendon spun the bottle, way too hard of course so it took like three minutes to stop. But it eventually stopped on Pete. “Yay i’ll get to kiss my bestie!” “Gross” Pete said, but he did kiss him without further discussion. It was a decent kiss but Pete looked really uncomfortable doing it. “Clockwise…” Brendon said, looking at the clock on the wall. “Your turn again Pete!”

Pete spun the bottle, way slower than Brendon did and it landed on both Frank and Gerard. “Okay what do i do now?” Pete asked Brendon. “Okay Gerard, get off” Brendon said. “You can sit in Frank’s lap again after we finish this game.” Gerard got off Frank but their shoulders were still touching so they could keep sharing the blanket. “Spin again” Brendon told Pete. This time the bottle ended up on Mikey, who was forced to look up now. No one said anything and they just kissed. But Mikey broke the kiss after like three seconds so it wasn’t even a real kiss. He looked back down and spun the bottle without saying a word. “Okay i can’t stand the tension, i’ll put on some music.” Ryan suddenly said. The kid was quiet but everything he said made up for all the bullshit Brendon said. Ryan played the Green Day record that was still in the cd player.

Mikey’s bottle had stopped on Ryan’s empty spot and when Ryan sat back down everyone was looking at him. “You’re not scared of me, are you?” Ryan said with a smirk. “Pshh, of course not” Mikey said, he leaned in over the bottle and waited for Ryan to close the gap. Weird enough, this was less awkward than kissing with Pete but he did not enjoy this at all so he broke the kiss and just went back to his spot, hoping he wouldn’t have to kiss anyone again.

“You know what?” Lynn said before spinning the bottle. “I know a game that will be way more fun for all of us and it’s just another cliché game as well! Seven minutes in heaven!” Everyone just kind of looked at her but then Brendon was like. “Would be less awkward because you don’t HAVE to do anything, you’ll just be locked up with someone for seven minutes.” “Brendon…. Literally everyone knows the rules.” Frank told him while shaking his head. “And you know what the best thing is?” Lynn asked the boys. “What?” Brendon asked eagerly. “I came up with this idea so i’m gonna bend the rules and choose the couples that will be locked up together!”

They asked if they could use Gerard’s bathroom and Lynn decided that Brendon and Ryan would go first. The two went in there, already giggling. “I totally did that to get rid of Brendon for a bit, Lynn said. It was actually really nice to only hear the music for a bit. “Wait” Pete said suddenly. “what?” Lynn asked him. “Not you, Gerard should be sitting in Frank’s lap, we’re not done playing stupid games.” Gerard rolled his eyes and moved so he was sitting in Frank’s lap. He got out his whiteboard and wrote ‘fuck you’ and held it up to Pete. “love you too Gee!” Pete said. Mikey smacked him, “uhm, that’s my nickname for him, come up with your own” “Well i’m sorry for upsetting you mr. grumpy.” Pete said jokingly. That’s when Mikey got up and ran upstairs. Gerard got his whiteboard and wrote. ‘think of a makeup dare ‘cause i’m gonna break this one, i’ll be back’ He got up after showing his whiteboard to Pete and followed his brother.

Gerard walked upstairs to Mikey’s room and found him curled up on his bed, crying. He hugged his brother like he’d hugged his mother earlier that night. When Mikey had calmed down a bit, Gerard wrote down ‘tell me’. “I know you won’t tell anyone but i need you to pinky promise me that you won’t tell anyone” Gerard nodded and held out his pinky. They didn’t care how childish it was, they still pinky promised and they’d always kept their promises to this day. “Okay” Mikey said, his voice was still shaking. “So, i’ve pretty much liked Pete since we became friends like a year ago, but since school started, stuff has been different. He has been hanging out with me during lunch and even after school and i started to think that he liked me but everytime something is about to happen, he backs out. Like, with the kiss, he backed out and kissed my cheek and then talked himself out of it. And then Ryan and Brendon just met and are probably banging eachother right now!” Gerard started silently laughing at that. He wrote, ‘I think both of you are scared that the other one doesn’t like you’. “Are you sure, Gee?” ‘Pretty sure, do the 7 mins in heaven game and you’ll see, something will happen, trust me’ Mikey just nodded and hugged his brother. Gerard was never wrong about stuff like this. Gerard grabbed his brother’s arm and pulled him off the bed to take him back downstairs. Just before he opened the basement door he turned around. He lifted Mikey’s glasses and used his sleeve to wipe his tears away while Mikey held his whiteboard for him. “Thanks Gee” He whispered just before his brother opened the door.

“Okay they’re back” Lynn said. “The next couple on my list….. Let me think... Gerard and Frank!” Frank stood up as Mikey sat back down, next to Pete, a little closer than before and he refused to look down. “You okay?” Pete asked him. “Yeah” Mikey said, looking at his crush “I’m sorry about that” “Are you crazy?” Pete answered “It was literally me being rude and mean, you shouldn’t be sorry about storming off.” He hugged Mikey and Mikey couldn’t help but smile.

“Oh wait” Pete said, before Frank and Gerard could enter the bathroom. “I got Gerard’s makeup dare” They turned around “What is it?” Frank asked. Lynn, Brendon and Pete giggled. “You guys are both gonna sleep in just your boxers and under only one blanket.” “No wait, this is not funny, this basement is freezing cold!” Pete laughed “Yeah why do you think i came up with it?” “I hate you” Frank whispered “And so does Gerard probably” Gerard nodded and glared at Pete. “That’s not everything though” Lynn said “We’re not gonna tell you guys when it’s time to get out and we took all of the clocks out of the bathroom and took your phones. You guys have to stay in there for at least 7 minutes, if you guys come out early, you’ll have to go in for another 7 minutes. Not a dare or anything, just wanted to try it.” Frank was the one to roll his eyes this time. “Come on Gerard” he said. Gerard grabbed his whiteboard off the floor and went to follow him. “No wait” Brendon said. He did some sign language and Gerard knew it meant ‘no whiteboard’ so he just handed his whiteboard over to Brendon, and flipped him off before following Frank into the bathroom.

Frank locked the door behind Gerard and Gerard got another marker out of his back pocket. He went up to the mirror and wrote. ‘Can we share the blanket? Bathroom is even colder’ Frank nodded “Come over here” He sat down on the floor and Gerard sat down next to him, lightly leaning on Frank. Frank turned his head and whispered. “You know we’re supposed to make out right?” Gerard got up and pointed to his neck. He erased the mirror and wrote ‘STOP DOING THAT, ITS DISTRACTING’ in capitals. As he was writing he could see Frank getting up in the mirror. “tell me why it’s distracting” Frank asked him, getting closer. Gerard erased the the mirror again and wrote ‘Distracting me from focusing on what’s important, not gonna tell the whole story but you’ll leave eventually and i can’t do that to myself again’ Gerard saw Frank coming closer in the mirror. “I won’t leave, nowhere else to go. I couldn’t go if i wanted to. And i really don’t want to leave.” Gerard erased the mirror and wrote ‘Promise?’ He turned around to look at Frank now. Frank took the marker out of Gerard’s hand and wrote on the mirror as well. ‘I promise.’ Gerard just hugged him after Frank gave him the marker back.

“I figured this is your way of saying thank you” Frank said, looking at Gerard but not letting go of now. Gerard nodded. “You don’t have to say thank you though.” Gerard got out his marker but instead of writing on the mirror he wrote on a not yet tattooed spot on Frank’s arm. ‘I really like you’ Frank grabbed the marker out of Gerard’s hand and started writing on Gerard’s chest ‘I really like you more’ He tried giving the marker back but Gerard just got another one out of the dresser under his mirror. They started writing stupid messages on each other until even Gerard was covered in ‘tattoos’. That’s what you get when you can’t use whiteboards. Gerard eventually dropped his marker on the floor and gave Frank another hug. Then the door opened and Brendon was standing there. “Seriously? It’s been over 20 minutes and you guys are still- Wait, i thought i took- why are you guys covered in words?” Gerard hid his face in Frank’s neck and Frank just blamed Brendon for taking the whiteboard away. “

“Gee, you should probably wash that stuff off because it will turn the sheets black and you’ll just give mom another heart attack.” Gerard agreed with his brother and he grabbed Frank’s hand and disappeared in the bathroom again. Gerard locked the door and they could hear Brendon shout “Don’t bang in the bathroom!” and Frank immediately shouted back “It’s not your bathroom!” Gerard smacked Frank in the chest leaving a red mark and immediately regretting it. He got a marker and wrote ‘sorry’ in Frank’s neck, one of the only places where there was still room to write. “Are you kidding me?” Frank said, grabbing both of Gerard’s arms. “That did not hurt, i deserved that, i was being an idiot. Now let’s get this stuff off.”

Gerard nodded and turned on the shower, probably the easiest and fastest way to get it off. He got two bottles of shower gel and put them by the shower and he waited for it to get warmer. This shower always took way too long to get warm. Frank hugged him from behind and put his head on Gerard’s shoulder while they were waiting. After at least 30 seconds Frank got bored and he decided that he was done waiting. He pushed Gerard who ended up under the freezing cold water and his face showed terror. He stepped out of the shower and hugged Frank who almost squeaked. “That’s c-c-cold” He said. Gerard just looked at him and raised an eyebrow. He felt the water and it was warmer now so he just got in the shower with jeans and socks still on, they were wet now anyways. Frank, however took his pants and socks off before jumping in the shower. When Gerard noticed that Frank’s pants were gone he decided that he could take his off as well. He tried his best not to be seductive but that’s kinda hard when you’re trying to take off your pants while showering with someone else.

He threw his pants and socks somewhere on the floor in the bathroom and he took the bottles of shower gel and gave one to Frank. He opened his own and started rubbing it on Frank’s arm. He did not have anything in this bathroom at all so they would have to use their hands. Frank started on Gerard’s chest and was surprised how fast it came off. After about 15 minutes they were done but Gerard decided that he had to wash Frank’s hair. He pointed to the shampoo bottle and to Frank’s hair and Frank just said “alright” and let Gerard do his thing. When he was done and ready to get out Frank told him that he wanted to wash Gerard’s hair as well. Gerard didn’t really want to wash his hair because he didn’t like the shiny-ness that his shampoo provided but whatever. When Frank was done washing Gerard’s hair, he wanted to cover both of them in as much soap bubbles as possible. Gerard took the challenge and helped him, but he kept getting distracted by his tattoos. He still couldn’t fully see what the other words on Frank’s stomach said but the one in the middle definitely said ‘and’. Frank kept moving and that only made it harder for Gerard, who was just trying to read it. Finally Frank lifted Gerard’s chin so Gerard looked him in the eyes. “Are you looking at what i think you’re looking at?” He said while grinning. Gerard shook his head and pointed to Frank’s tattoos. “Oooh” Frank said, trying his best to sound disappointed. “It says search and destroy.” He showed his tattoos to Gerard who tried to memorize the details so that he could draw them later.

“We should probably get out, i’m starting to look like a raisin.” Frank said eventually. Gerard nodded and turned the shower off. They both got a towel and Gerard decided that he would clean up the bathroom tomorrow.

They both put their towels around their waists and walked out of the bathroom to get some dry boxers for the night. “So did you guys do the dirty or nah?” Brendon asked. “Depends on what ‘dirty’ is to you, because i just washed Gerard’s hair and i can tell you that it was far from clean before that.” Everyone laughed at Frank’s comment and Gerard pretended to look hurt, which he was very bad at. Gerard took a pair of boxers and disappeared into the bathroom to change into them. He didn’t bother putting on more clothes since he had to sleep in boxers anyways.

He came out of the bathroom and sat down next to his brother, who was resting his head on Pete’s shoulder. He put his hand on his brother’s knee and Mikey just said. “thanks so much Gee” Gerard smiled at him. Frank came back from the bathroom and Pete announced that it was five in the morning and he was tired. Everyone agreed with him but before he went to bed he took three blankets off Gerard’s bed, leaving the thinnest one on. “Not fair” Frank said “Life’s not fair” Pete replied, winking at him. Ryan was already asleep on one of the mattresses and Brendon covered him with one of the blankets from Gerard’s bed. Lynn was already lying on the sofa and Mikey was sitting on his and Pete’s mattress. “Oh Gerard” Brendon said “Before i forget, your whiteboard is on your desk, i don’t want you to lose it again.” Gerard gave him a thumbs up and turned his nightlight on before turning the big light off. Frank was already in Gerard’s bed. Gerard joined him, and waited didn’t turn the nightlight off before Pete found the right mattress.

After turning off the nightlight, the basement was so dark that he couldn’t see anything. He turned around so he was facing Frank and he reached out to him. Gerard was freezing and he was not gonna let Frank sleep while he was Freezing. “Cold?” Frank whispered. Gerard was literally shivering. “I guess that’s a yes?” Frank grabbed Gerard’s arms and put them around him. He put his own arms around Gerard and started rubbing his back, trying to get him warm. After an hour, both of them were still freezing and awake. “Gee, this is not gonna work” Frank said. “But i have an idea” He got out of the bed and dragged Gerard along. Gerard took small steps, hoping that he wouldn’t fall but they were already at the bathroom.
Frank closed the door before turning the light off and grabbed the blanket from earlier that he put over the towel rack. He put the blanket around Gerard’s shoulders but still held the ends. Gerard hugged him as a thank you because this was honestly the warmest blanket in the world. “You’re welcome” Frank’s breath hit his neck again, and it sent chills down Gerard’s back. But they weren’t cold chills, they were warm chills. Gerard pulled away and looked at Frank in shock. He was still holding on to Frank because his legs were about to give in. “What’s wrong?” Frank asked, to him it looked like Gerard had just seen a ghost. Gerard pointed to his neck again. “Ah, your neck? I mean, i guess it’s not distracting anymore, right?” Gerard shook his head. “So i guess you wouldn’t mind if” Frank leaned in again “I would do this” He spoke the words so close to Gerard’s neck that he was sure Gerard could feel it. Gerard shook his head again. “Let’s take this a step further” Frank whispered. “He started kissing Gerard’s neck and that’s when Gerard’s legs gave in. Frank ended up sitting on the floor with his back to the wall and with Gerard on his lap again. He didn’t stop kissing Gerard’s neck until Gerard couldn’t contain himself anymore. He turned his head and kissed Frank on the lips. Frank’s hands went into Gerard’s hair and Gerard lost control over his own arms so they went kind of everywhere. This was totally not what both of them had been thinking about all day or anything of course. Frank decided that it had been long enough so he broke the kiss and went back to Gerard’s neck. This time he wasn’t just kissing it though. He was biting and sucking and even licking the skin on Gerard’s neck. And that’s when something happened that no one predicted. Gerard let out a moan. A sound. And he immediately pulled back and covered his mouth. “How?” Frank asked him, he was at least half as shocked as Gerard was. This was the first sound he’d ever heard from Gerard. Gerard tried his best to talk but nothing else was coming out. He was just really confused right now. He got a marker that they left on the floor and wrote. ‘dont tell’ on the mirror before erasing it. Frank nodded and they went back to bed, with the blanket. Gerard was totally going to ask his Nana if she could help him with talking. Because right now, he knew that he could possibly speak again in the future.

He cuddled up to Frank and made sure both of them were covered by the blankets. “Thank you so much” Frank whispered. “Thanks for giving me a place to stay and thanks for being so nice to me and just thanks for everything.” Gerard hugged him tighter. “I really like you too” Was the last thing Frank told him before they both passed out.
