The only hope for me is you(On hold)

*Few weeks later. Like end of Sep*
Today was a colder day...

Frank and Mikey hid Gerard's alcohol.

He understood though, He wanted to get better... It was just... Hard.

"It's cold! Mikey close the door!" Gerard shouted, wrapping his arms around himself "One second I'm trying to get this through the door!" Mikey argued back "Wh-Why on earth wo-would you order so-something in this we-weather!" Gerard wondered "We needed a new couch, Gee" Mikey mumbled, Gerard just laughed and grabbed his sweater.

"See, isn't this new one better?" Mikey smiled "Ye-Yeah I gu-guess" He nodded "So... Ca-Can I ha-have my al--" "No." Mikey cut his brother off "Bu-But Mik-Mikey, I stu-stu-stutter without it" Gerard frowned "Gee, I've lived with it my whole life" Mikey shrugged, Not looking at his brother "Bu-But, Fr-Frank" His eyebrows furrowed "What about him?" Gerard sighed "I can tell... He ge-gets an-annoyed" Mikey scoffed "No, he doesn't." Gerard just sighed...

They sat in silence for about ten minutes till Gerard spoke up again "Do... Do you think he'd like me?" He was still wearing his frown. Mikey laughed causing Gerard's face to heat up more "Thought so...'' "OH! No no Gee. I was laughing cause that was a redundant question. I can see it in the way he looks at you that he likes you" Mikey stated "I hope you're right..." He mumbled...

The only reason he was asking was that he was going to confront him today after he got back from work.

Frnk: This is actually perfect timing, I have some things I need to say too. I get done in 5, I'll pic you up?
Gee: Sounds good...

Gerard was crawling with anxiety by now. He had no clue how this conversation was going to go.

All to soo Franks car pulled up out front of the house and Gerard had no other option than to walk out there.

"He gee" Frank smiled "He-He-Hey" Gerard smiled back "So you wanted to talk?" The older boy nodded "Ca-ca-can we do it at yo-yo-your house?" He asked nervously "Sure" Frank nodded, getting worried himself with the way Gerard was acting.

Pulling on the sleeves of his sweater Gerard bit his lip nervously.

"S-So... Everything okay? Gerard?" Frank asked... By now Gerard had to try to not throw up "I th-think... It sh-sh-shou-should b-be..." Frank nodded and waited for Gerard to start talking, and when he didn't Frank sighed of frustration "I-Im so-so-so-so-FUCK... Sorry. I do-do-don-don't kn-know ho-" "Gee, Stop" Frank interrupted, noticing his panic, With that Gerard's hand's, flew over his mouth as tears arose in his eyes as he let out a sob "Whats all this about?" Frank asked with A mixture of annoyance but mostly worry. Gerard, choked on his breath and when he didn't answer Frank continued "Hm? Why are you acting like you're about to deliver bad news? Did I do something? I mean you barely talk to me about whats bothering you anymore! You'd rather go to the bottle or a fucking blade!"

Gerard was now shaking... He only wanted to confess his love to frank... Not have him start hating him...

"What are you ending the friendship we have?" Frank all but shouted, Gerard shook his head quickly "Fr-Fr-Fr-SHIT" Gerard sobbed out and all but collapsed "For fuck's sake, Gerard Were best fucking friends!!" Frank all but shouted, causing Gerard to finally snap "AND THA-THA-THAT'S THE FU-FU-FUCKING PROBLEM!!!" Gerard sobbed out and Franks' face fell dramatically, Trying to hide his own tears now... Was that what this talk was about? Is this what Gerard wanted to say...? He had a feeling Gerard didn't want him around anymore... Frank felt his heartbreak

"Ge-Gee I- Please..." Frank tried not to show his weakened side, just in case this was what he thought it was... Gerard realized what he had said and, still with anger, explained himself

"THE PROBLEM, FRANKLIN, IS THAT WE'RE ONLY BEST FUCKING FRIENDS! AND IT FUCKING HURTS BECAUSE I LIKE YOU, FUCK I LOVE YOU BUT YOU DON'T FEEL THE SAME AND IT FUCKING KILLS ME, FRANK IT HURTS. SO FUCK YOU!" Gerard sobbed before dodging around Frank and running out the front door.

It was much colder now. Light snow dusted the ground. How odd. Snow in September. The wind stung Gerards Cheeks.

Frank was left shocked, standing in his living room, his heart hurt for the fact Gerard thought he didn't feel the same. He realized he needed to go after Gerard and explain.

Running out his front door he followed Gerard's footprints.

Gerard was all but a sobbing mess. He found his way to an abandoned building and fully broke down. Shivering slightly... He should have just run home. Stupid.

He pushed himself into a corner and prayed to just disappear.

"GEE!" Frank shouted and Gerard sighed pulling his hood over his head hoping that would work and that Frank would just walk by...

Unfortunately, the universe was not that forgiving.

"Fuck! Gerard" Frank gasped. running towards him "Pl-Please" Gerard pleaded "I already ma-ma-made a fo-fool of myself... Ju-ju-just go..." Gerard sobbed "Gee" Frank sighed, crouching down next to him "Fr-Frank, You do-don't need to te-te-tell-" Frank cut him off by pressing his lips to Gerard's.

Instantly Gerard melted into the kiss but still felt like Frank was doing this because he had to not cause he needed to...

Frank noticed Gerard's uneasiness and brought his hand up to his cheek, deepening the kiss, adding more passion. Gerard never wanted him to pull away.

But he did, and the two boys were left breathless.

"Me too. Gee, baby. Me too" Frank nodded, pressing his forehead against Gerard's.

"Pr-Promise?" Gerard whimpered, eyes still closed "Cross my heart" Gerard nodded and wrapped his arms around Frank, who returned the gesture.

"Gerard, why do you look like you've been crying?!" Mikey asked as soon as Frank and Gerard walked in "Ju-Ju-Just had a li-little bump i-is all" Gerard answered, "Are you sure?" Mikey walked up to them "Ve-Very su-sure" He nodded, Mikey gave a simple nod and turned to frank "Did you ask yet?!" Mikey bugged, Frank rolled his eyes "Not quite" Gerard gave a confused look "A-As-Asked w-wh-what?" Mikey's eyes widened "He was gonna-" "MIKEY Shut your mouth. Surprise." Frank gritted. Mikey nodded and walked away.

"Wh-what w-were y-you-" "Suprise, Gerard" Frank laughed "Fr-Fr-Frank, y-y-you kn-know ho-how I fe-feel About s-s-su-su-su-" "Surprises" Frank finished for Gerard, noticing his struggle. this caused Gerard to frown. "Yeh..." "Hey" Frank whispered, tilting Gerard's chin up so he could see into his eyes "Don't feel like you have to rush yourself, take your time when talking, I don't care about your stutter, It doesn't change the way I see you, okay?" Gerard nodded at Franks words "Good" Frank smiled.
