Spirits of the Dead

A/N:
I couldn't quite finish the last chapter, due to technical difficulties. So, the beginning of this chapter would be what happened after the last stanza, which was what Gerard read.
Frank's POV
After Gerard finished reading, we both received a standing ovation from all of our classmates, and even our teacher. I tried not to blush once Gerard hugged me and made me bow down with him. "Fantastic job boys! I am in awe with that poem!" Our teacher said excitedly. Gerard and I both laughed and thanked her, also our classmates. Gerard and I stared at each other, and Gerard then gave me a big happy smile with a thumbs up. "Great job, Frank!" I smiled and blushed, I just couldn't contain myself. "Thank you Gerard! You did amazing, It was nice working with you." I saw him smile even more. "Thank you, and yeah it was nice working with you too." We exchanged smiles and high fives, and that's when the bell rang. We both gathered our things, and headed out. "See you after school Frank!" Gerard yelled at me, since we were now in the hallway along with hundreds of students. I raised up a thumb hoping that he would see it. I somehow managed to push people away and made it on time for my next class. See you soon Gerard I whispered to myself.
•Skipping Frank's last class, He is now walking towards the library, where he was meeting Gerard•
"Frank!" A familiar voice yelled, trying to get my attention. I turned around, and I was right. It was Gerard. Along with his brother, Mikey I believe. "Hey." I answered back. They both started walking towards me, and I was now feeling nervous, but that soon stopped once I received the cutest smile from Gerard. "Yay! You made it!" Gerard yelled once again giving me a small hug. I smiled and hugged him back, "Of course, I did agreed to meet you here didn't I?" "Indeed you did. Oh! This is my little brother Mikey, Mikey this is Frank." I smiled an waved at Mikey and he returned the gesture. "Nice shirt," we both said in unsion. He was wearing an Anthrax shirt, and I was wearing an Iron Maiden shirt. All of us laughed and we both thanked each other. "So, are you guys ready to leave?" Gerard asked. "Yeah I'll follow you, since I have my car here." I responded. "Alright." We walked toward the parking lot, and it turns out we were parked two cars away. Once Gerard and Mikey started driving I followed them. My nerves then came again, while I was driving. What am I going to do? I have never hanged out! More thoughts filled my mind, but stopped once I realized Gerard and Mikey had parked in front of a two story house. They both got out so I also did. "Welcome to the Way territory!" The Way brothers yelled together. Gerard unlocked the door and we all entered what I figured was the living room. "Boys is that you?" A female voice called from the kitchen. "Yes mom it's us, and we brought a friend along." Footsteps could be heard making their way towards us. Then, a female, which I'm guessing is the Way brothers mom, appeared. "Oh hello, new face. What's your name?" The Way mom asked. "Hello Mam, my name's Frank, Frank Iero." "Well hello Frank, call me Donna." She smiled kindly, then passed her attention towards her sons. "How was school boys?" Both Mikey and Gerard sighed. "It was fine mom, I presented in front of my class, along with Frank, and we both got a standing ovation from everybody. Even our teacher!" Gerard said. "Mine was fine too, took two tests, and I found them pretty easy." Mikey said. "That's great honey! And, wow my baby is a genius!" Their mom replied. I stood awkwardly in the corner, waiting for them to finish talking. I started tapping my fingers on my leg making a rhythm, which earned me the attention of the Way's. I blushed out of embarrassment, and looked down. "He is so cute!" Donna said admiringly. I blushed even harder and stammered a thank you. "Okay okay, mom you are making Frank uncomfortable. Come on Frank, lets go to my room." Gerard said. I nodded and smiled at both Donna, and Mikey. I then learned that Gerard's room was actually the basement which was totally rad! As soon as I walked in, I fell in love. He had band and horror movies posters! Art also hanged around the room. Comic books, movies, and records stacked on shelves. This was nothing related to the Gerard from school. "Make yourself comfortable, Frank." Gerard announced while he looked through the movies he had stacked. I sat on his bed, and couldn't help but watch Gerard's bottom. It sure looked nice. He then turned around and I quickly turned my gaze towards one of the corners of his room. "Is Jack the Reaper, good for ya?" "Yeah, it's prefectly fine!" I said blushing to the idea of me staring at Gerard's ass. "Okay!" Gerad then inserted the movie, and turned off the lights before he came and laid beside me. "Before the movie begins, I want to ask, what happened yesterday?" I said. "Right, so I did went to her house like you adviced. I had to climb through the window, since I really wanted to surprise her, but she surprised me even more. She was making out with a guy whom I don't know the name of. They didn't see me, so I decided to knock the froon door, and I did. She answered the door, looking like she was about to have sex, which she was. She was shocked by seeing me there, and I acted all clueless. Then they guy came downstairs calling her "Babe" and everything. So then I yelled/explained to her why I had went to pay a visit. She started crying and begging for me to not leave her, but of course, I ended it there. Then I ran to my car and went towards a corner store to buy some booze. I know that I shouldn't, I regret it now, since I was sober for a year. I passed out then woke up vomiting, with a huge headache. Mikey then came for the rescue with pain killers, so yeah that's what happened." I was speechless. A lot had happened! "I'm really sorry for what Lindsey did, no one deserves to be cheated on. And relating towards your drinking problem, I'm also sorry for that. But, you had a reason. I just don't want you to start doing it regularly. Lastly, why the hell did you even go to school then? If you weren't okay, you shouldn't go." "I know, and don't worry I won't make it a habit again. Also, because I didn't wanted to let you down. I wanted to be there, since I am your partner." I smiled at the last part. "Wow, thank you Gerard. I appreciate it. This Gerard is a lot more nicer." I responded. "I'm glad that you enjoy this Gerard, because it's not going anywhere." We exchanged smiles and started to watch the movie. With of course, me always staring at the beautiful boy who's laying beside me.
