Ship: Gerard/Frank
Words: 335

On the eleventh day of Christmas...

I have no money.

Neither of us have much money,

When I pull up my savings account the balance says: $183. That's not near enough and I need to save it...

I grip my mouse, feeling tears rise to my eyes. I wanted to give Frank a good Christmas this year with presents and Mistletoe and a Christmas tree but I have nothing.

"Gerard, Baby? I'm home!" Frank calls. He sounds exhausted and I feel even worse because it's Christmas... and he had to work...

"H-hey!" I call from the computer room, quickly closing out of the website and meeting Frank at the door. He hugs me, kissing my cheek.

"You doing alright?" He asks with a frown.

"Y-yeah..." I lower my eyes, "N-no..."

"What's wrong?" He asks pulling me close. I feel tears rising to my eyes and I can't help but sob into his shoulder.

"I wanted to get you a present... it's Christmas... I can't and I-I wanted to make this a good Christmas this year..." he hugs me close while I hug back.

"Shh, hey, it's okay..." he pulls me to the couch and drapes a blanket over the both of us, "It'll be okay, I promise... you don't need to get me presents... as long as I have you I'm happy, Baby..."

I sob harder into his shoulder, "I love you so much..."

"I love you, too..." he kisses me, "Stop crying because it's going to be okay. I just wanna see you happy, that's the only gift I want..."

I wipe my tears as he lies us down so he's on top of me, straddling me and resting his cheek against my chest.

"Can you smile for me?" He asks pulling away.

I smile softly, trying to hold back the tears.

"That's my beautiful Baby Boy..." he whispers, kissing my nose, "Merry Christmas."

"Merry Christmas..."
