Gerard and I walked around the mall as I held his hand. We were looking at clothes in the store when I heard snickers behind us. I turned and saw some people from school. They aren't in my grade, they were in Gerard's so they already graduated. But they were always so mean to Gerard.

"Oh look, if it isn't Peter Pan and Peter Trans," one remarked.

I hated it when they called us that. They used to call Gerard Peter Pan because he played Peter in a play, but when Gerard came out as pansexual it got a whole new meaning. And then they called me Peter Trans. Peter because I was always like a mini version of Gerard and following him around, and trans because I like to wear skirts and dresses. But I hate it because I'm not transgender. And I hate it because I don't want Gerard getting made fun of just because he loves everyone.

"C'mon, high school's over, haven't you three grown up yet?" Gerard asked.

They rolled their eyes and I whimpered, hugging Gerard's arm.

"I see you still have your little pet," the tall one said.

"He's not a pet," Gerard denied bitterly. "He's my brother."

"Well, doesn't really seem like it," the person said. "More like a bitch in heat."

"Hey, leave him alone, he didn't do anything to you," Gerard said.

"Wh-what's it mean?" I asked.

"Nothing," Gerard said.

"It means you want to suck his dick," the tall one said.

I whimpered and shook my head.

"Just leave us alone," Gerard said. "High school is over, grow up already."

"Remember in high school when you used to be all fat and stuff?" One of the guys asked. "God, you were so ugly. You still are. Little fat shit."

I started crying and Gerard rubbed my back.

"Wh-why would you say such mean things to him?" I cried.

"Oh, Button, it's okay, don't cry," Gerard whispered.

He wrapped an arm around my waist and we left the store.

"Y-you're not ugly or fat," I sobbed as we sat at a bench. "You're so pretty."

Gerard hugged me and I buried my face into his shoulder.

"I know, baby," he whispered. "Don't cry, Button, it's okay. What those stupid guys say doesn't matter."

I sniffled as he kissed the top of my head.

"There we go, Button, no more tears," he whispered.

"I-I don't like it when they b-bully you," I hiccuped.

"I know you don't but you've just gotta ignore it, okay?" Gerard asked. "Every word that comes from their mouth is just plain stupidity."

I sniffled and nodded.

"There we go," he whispered. "See? All better now. Now, let's go get you some ice cream, yeah?"

I nodded my head and he smiled. Gerard got up and held my hand as we went down to the ice cream shop. On our way, we happened to run into Dallon and Pete.

"Dallon!" I exclaimed.

I ran up and hugged him, giving him a big kiss.

"Hey there, baby, I missed you," he said.

I giggled and blushed as Gerard stepped up and he did not look happy.

"We were just about to go get ice cream," he said. "So I guess he'll see you later."

"But can't Dallon get ice cream with us?" I asked.

"I think that sounds like a great idea," Dallon agreed.

I giggled as he wrapped an arm around my waist and we went to the ice cream place. Gerard ordered my ice cream for me and I smiled. We got our ice cream and sat on a bench. However, Dallon pulled me into his lap and I smiled. I kissed his cheek and he rubbed my back.

"Well now, if it isn't the pretty boy again," Pete said. "Missed you, baby."

"Don't call him that," Gerard said.

I blushed, looking down at my lap as I ate.

"How's your ice cream, Button?" Gerard asked.

"It's good," I replied. "Thank you."

He smiled at me and I rested my head on Dallon's shoulder.

"We were actually gonna go back to my place," Dallon said. "Wanna join us, baby?"

"No," Gerard denied.

"Well, I wasn't inviting you," Dallon said.

"Last time he went to your place he came home wasted," Gerard said.

"We were just having fun," Dallon defended.

"Frankie coming home drunk and crying is not fun," Gerard stated.

"Well, he was enjoying himself before you came along then," Dallon said.

"Come on, Button, let's go home," Gerard said.

He held my hand and pulled me up to my feet with him.

"Hey, I think he should choose," Dallon said, standing up.

"Button, he's a total dick," Gerard said.

I whimpered and looked between the two. Gerard grabbed my hand and pulled me with him. The sudden movement caused my ice cream to fall from my hand and on the ground. I cried and Dallon gave me a hug.

"See, look at how mean he is," Dallon said. "C'mon, baby, let's go back to my house."

He wrapped an arm around my shoulder as I sniffled. Pete came to my other side and I felt his hand trail along my butt gently.

"Don't fucking touch him," Gerard spat, pushing Pete.

"Leave me alone!" I cried.

Gerard stared at me as I sniffled and hugged Dallon. I walked off with them but couldn't help looking back at Gerard sadly. I got into Dallon's car with them, Pete sitting in the backseat. Dallon held onto my hand as he drove and I smiled.

"Is Gerard gonna be mad at me?" I asked.

"Who can be mad at a pretty face like yours?" He asked.

I blushed as we got to Dallon's house quickly.

"Brendon and Bob's meeting us here," Dallon said as he went inside.

Pete and I followed behind as he went to the fridge and pulled out a pack of beer, handing a bottle to the two of us. I whimpered as I looked down at it, remembering how it made me feel last time.

"Wh-where's your parents?" I asked.

"Huh? Oh, they're always away for work, you don't have to worry," Dallon said.

"We should play seven minutes in heaven when the others get here," Pete suggested.

"A game? I like games. What's that?" I asked.

"It's where I'll take you into the closet and fuck your pretty little ass," Pete said.

I whimpered and shook my head, hugging Dallon.

"Don't worry, baby, I'm the only one doing any fucking," Dallon said.

Somehow, that made me worry even more. I've never had sex before, I've always been saving my first time for someone special. I thought I loved Dallon but Gerard says I don't and I trust Gerard more than anyone.

"Relax, baby," Dallon said softly, opening my beer for me.

I took a nervous sip as we went to the other room. I sat on Dallon's lap on the couch as the front door opened. The other's soon came in with us and I rested my head on Dallon's shoulder. I wasn't really drinking, I was just holding the beer bottle. Pete mentioned the closet game again and I frowned. I just wanted to drink apple juice and watch cartoons or play dolls with Gerard, I didn't wanna have sex with someone in a closet.

Frankie: Can you pick me up?

Gerard: Of course

I sent Gerard the address and made sure no one saw me text him.

"Gerard says he has to pick me up now," I said.

"You just got here," Dallon said. "Tell him to go fuck himself."

"But my mom said I had to be home before ten," I lied.

I didn't want Dallon thinking I didn't wanna be with him, I was just nervous.

"Alright, I'll see you later, baby," he said.

Dallon gave me a kiss and I went outside. I waited on the porch for five minutes before Gerard finally arrived. I got in and he grabbed the beer from my hand, which I had forgotten I was even holding. He threw it out the window and it landed in the glass. Thankfully it didn't break, I'd be sad if a little animal came along and got hurt by the broken glass.

The two of us rode in silence back home. It was dark out and getting late. Gerard and I had already eaten at the mall so we wouldn't have to worry about dinner. When we got back home, I went upstairs and changed into my onesie with the purple hearts on it. I crawled into my bed as Gerard stripped to his boxers and got into his own bed on the other side of the room.

He turned off the light and I stared at his back facing me. I sucked on my paci, wanting nothing more than to go cuddle with him. What if he's mad because I chose Dallon over him? In the end, I went over and crawled into his bed, laying between him and the wall. Gerard just stared at me, waiting for me to say something. Instead, I just snuggled up to him, nuzzling my face against his chest.

"'M sowwy," I whispered, taking the paci from my mouth.

"It's okay, Button," Gerard mumbled.

"I-I didn't want to yell at you or choose him over you," I said, my eyes filling with tears. "I know you will always love me but I wanted him to love me too. Please don't be mad, I love you."

"Hey," Gerard said softly, looking down at me. "Don't worry, baby boy, I can never be mad at you."

He wiped away my tears and I smiled softly.

"Why do you want him to love you so badly?" Gerard asked.

"Because no boy's ever loved me before, they all just make fun of me," I said. "But Dallon likes me and I don't want him to stop liking me because then no one will ever love me again and I'll never get another boyfriend."

"Button, trust me, you'll have boys falling at your feet with how pretty you are," Gerard said.

I giggled and looked up at him.

"Really?" I asked.

Gerard nodded, his hazel eyes wide. He was just staring at me, lips parted slightly. It was then that I noticed how close we were. It's not like we haven't been this close before but for some reason now it was making my heart race. There was a tension and it was hot and thick and I liked it. Gerard glanced between my lips and eyes, his hot breath fanning over my face.

"Go to sleep, Button," he finally whispered.

Gerard put my paci in my mouth and I watched him with wide, innocent eyes. He leaned forward, softly kissing the button of the paci that covered my mouth. I smiled, burying my face into the crook of his neck as I couldn't help but wish my paci hadn't been in the way.
