Frank walked the kid to her house, taking surprisingly less time than he had imagined. He messaged Gerard, telling him the location.

Before long, Gerard pulled up beside Frank. Frank got in, leaning over and giving Gerard a kiss before someone beeped their horn. Gerard started driving while Frank put a middle finger up at the guy.

"You're too violent Frank. You're like 2 foot tall anyone can flick you and you'd fall over." Gerard laughed.

Frank pouted, making Gerard laugh more. Gerard drove them to the comic book store. Parking outside. He held the door open for Frank in a mock gentlemanly way. Frank just scoffed and rolled his eyes.

" Frank? Frank Iero? " Someone in the shop asked.

Frank froze, hoping he had been hearing things. When he looked at Gerard, he looked pale. Someone walked up to them, making Frank instantly relax.

"Ray!" Frank said.

Frank gave Ray a many hug before moving back to Gerards side. Gerard held onto Frank's hand subcontiously and Ray looked at them. Noticing their entwined hands, he smiled.

"Frank I never thought you'd get a boyfriend. Always pegged you as forever alone." Ray teased.

Frank blushed and looked down. Not realising that it was his que to introduce Gerard. Gerard did get the hint and held his free hand forward for Ray to shake.

"I'm Gerard, Frank's... Erm..." Gerard trailed off.

"little more than friend. Not completely official." Frank explained.

Ray nodded, shaking Gerards hand smiling. Frank rubbed the back of Gerards hand with his fingers. Gerard smiled down at him, letting go of his hand and putting his arm around his waist. Frank blushed red and Ray stifled a laugh.

"I'm Ray. I work here what can I help you with?" Ray said.

He put on his customer service act to help Frank look for a comic. Gerard smiling at him, blushing whenever he was caught. Frank leant up kissing his cheek.

"You two are cute together. You should make it offial." Ray said as they paid for the comics.

"Life isn't always simple Ray, you know this." Frank said sadly.

Gerard kissed the top of his head. Ray just stated at them slightly confused. Before he realised himself.

"Wait you mean he's your... Teacher?" Ray asked.

Frank nodded and Gerard looked pale again. Ray smiled sadly, putting their comics into a bag.

"I hope it works out for you two. You seem to really like each other." Ray said, giving them their change.

He waved saying goodbye as they left the shop. Getting in the car, Gerard drove for about three minutes before pulling into an ally.

"Why did you tell him?" He asked Frank.

He was mad. This could ruin his career. His life. Frank laughed slightly, making Gerard glare at him. The glare instantly made Frank silent.

"Ray - he won't tell anyone. Trust me. He helped me through a lot of shit." Frank said.

Gerard just stated at him blankly. Frank undid his seat belt, climbing onto Gerard leg either side and hugged him.

"Ray helped me out when my mom first got into drugs and started selling me off." Frank mumbled into Gerards neck. "If I can trust him with that, which I hadn't even told you about. I can trust him with anything."

Gerard was shocked. He hadn't expected Frank to keep that sort of important information away from him. He was sold off. Gerard just tightly hugged him.

"Okay Frankie, I trust you." Gerard mumbled.

Frank pulled back from the hug, giving Gerard a deep kiss. Gerard wrapping his arms around Frank's lower body. His hand slid slightly up the material of the hoodie.

"Let's go back to mine now." Gerard mumbled, pecking Frank's lips again.

Frank nodded, moving to his own seat. Gerard leant over, kissing Frank again. Frank just smiled into the kiss. There was a tap at the window, making both of them jump.

Frank turned to look at the window and saw Ray. He wound the window down, looking at him questiongly.

"You're fucking idiots. You forgot your comics." Ray laughed.

He brought a bag up and passed it through the open window. Gerard giggled nervously. Frank took the bag, thanking Ray once again.

"And Gerard, I won't tell. I know too much about Frank. You can trust me. Also you two are adorable together." Ray smiled.

Both Gerard and Frank blushed. Thanking Ray again. Gerard smiling in gratitude to the reassurance. Ray wandered away, probably to go back to work. Before Frank leant his head out the window.

"Come round the school sometime, love to play guitar with you again." Frank called out.

"Will do Frankie." Ray called back.

He walked out of sight and Frank put his seat belt back on. Gerard bevan driving again and they struck up an easy conversation.

They got back to Gerard house, going inside and watching movies until they got hungry. Gerard kissed the back of Frank's head. Asking if he wanted pizza. Frank nodded, moving his head to be in front of Gerards.

"Shit, you're hot." Frank mumbled.

Gerard blushed and giggled, placing a delacate kiss on Frank's lips. Frank raised an eyebrow before smashing his lips against Gerards. Their tongues rubbing against each other.

They both were moaning when there was a knock on the door. They looked at each other confused. Before something clicked in Gerards head.

"Today is Halloween." Gerard said. "Kids."

Frank nodded. Staying in the couch while Gerard scrambled to get sweets. He opened the door. He was met with an adorable kid dressed up as an alien.

"Here you go hon. Frank come look at this kid." Gerard called.

Frank sighed heavily as more kids came to the door. Smiling when he saw the kid dressed up, he knelt down to his hight.

"Aliens are the best aren't they?" Gerard said, placing his hand on Frank's shoulder.

Frank nodded and gave the kid a lollipop that he pretended to magic out of his ear. Gerard gave some other kids some sweets. Frank having a short conversation with them.

Some parents were with them. Smiling when they saw Frank and Gerard talk to the kids. Gerards arms were around Frank's shoulders, hugging him while he gave a 7 year old kid a sweet. The parents of that kid looked at them disgustedly.

"You should be ashamed." they said

They took the sweet from their kids hand and threw it on the street outside Gerards house.

Frank stood up. Stepping outside. Gerard, holding his arms lightly. Warning him not to do anything.

"What do we have to be ashamed of?" Frank asked.

The parents marched over to Frank, squaring him up.

"I'm not going to fight you. I'm just asking a question." Frank said casually.

The parents took a step back, looking between Frank's hand entwined in Gerards. He pulled Gerard behind him, protectively.

"Frankie, let's just go inside. Hmm...? Celebrate your birthday some more?" Gerard asked, trying to calm Frank down.

Frank looked back at Gerard. Smiling softly when he looked scared slightly. Frank pulled Gerard inside, smiling politely at the couple.

The man of the couple, prevented the door from closing. Frank looked at him dead in the eye. The man rolled his sleeves up. He knew it would be stupid to go against this guy. He was twice his size.

He wouldn't fight in front of kids either. That was wrong. He would rather be beat to smithereens than see kids witness him fight.

"I'm sir, listen. Can you step away from the house please? I don't want to fight you." Frank asked calmly.

"Why because you're too much of a faggot to come out." The man smirked.

"Listen I'm not going to fight you in front of kids. They don't deserve to see that. Can you not use that kind of language either please?" Frank said.

Gerard was surprised at how calm Frank was being. As was they guy. He seemed taken aback for a second before grabbing Frank and pushing him against the wall.

Frank's back hit the wall hard and he let out a small groan. Gerard stepped outside, attempting to get Frank back in. But the guy pushed him out of the way.

Frank pushed against the guy, picking Gerard up from the floor before helping him inside. He closed the door behind him, this time the guy didn't try to keep it open.
