Poor Frank

A/N: this is an unusual time for me to update but I finished with the chapter yesterday and had to add another sentence and didn't remember what it was cuz my brain wasn't functioning so I woke up this morning, added the sentence and here I am, posting it.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy it. :)

"So you're back to your old self, Gerard?" The professor asked as he looked down at Gerard.

"No, I just forgot we had homework today. No big deal, it happens," Gerard lied. He didn't forget about his homework. Frank did, and he's gonna make sure he doesn't next time.

Gerard's still pissed from yesterday. If he knew Lindsey was a Ballato, he wouldn't have fucked her. He wouldn't even have talked to her. The bitch knew what she was doing and now Gerard's in big shit.

The class was dismissed as the clock hit 4. Gerard stormed outside to his red Tesla and drove home, making as much noise as he can with his car to gain attention. As he got home, he did his usual things, like change clothes, eat dinner, sketch something in his sketchbook and then TV. He was in the middle of some horror movie when the door opened and Frank came in with a really good mood. Well, that's not gonna last any longer.

"You didn't do my homework yesterday," Gerard said with a calmer voice than he should've.

"Well, I am not going to anymore," Frank said, a smile appearing on his face.

"What do you mean 'you're not going to anymore'?" Gerard asked, raising his voice.

"The semester's gonna end this Friday and we're gonna get our grades. Our deal was to make you pass the semester. I did. We're done with the semester, so now I'm a free civilian and not your homework slave," Frank said, leaving Gerard confused.

"What do you mean it's over? Isn't the semester the whole year?!" Gerard snapped.

"Never was," Frank laughed.

"Fuck," Gerard sighed, "I didn't want to do this, but I'm using my second 'I'll do anything' pass. Make me pass my year."

Frank hesitated but then groaned, "Ugh, fine! But it starts on Monday. You're gonna pass this semester for sure, I don't need to do your homework for this week."

"Yes, you do!" Gerard yelled again. "If you don't, they're gonna call my dad again!"

"Well, that's not in our deal so I couldn't care any less!" Frank yelled back.

Gerard groaned, accepting defeat, and stormed to his room, locking the door behind him. If this wasn't Frank talking to him like that, he would've already punched him in the face and strangled him to death. But it IS Frank, and he can't ruin that cute face of his and he definitely doesn't want to kill him before he gets that cute ass of his.

Gerard tried to be generous and caring with him. He really did, but it's just not working out. He always thinks about what Frank had said the other day. Just the fact that Frank listened to him and cared, made him want the guy even more. Frank's just- he's someone really special. He always puts everyone else before him. Gerard didn't expect him to listen to his little story when he was an ass to him the whole time. But he did. No one else would've.

At this point, Gerard just wishes he'd stop being an ass towards the guy. But it's not his fault he can't help it! He was even considering apologizing to Frank the other day for everything he did, but his ego didn't let him to. He has never in his life apologized for the things he did. Probably once or twice to Mikey, but that's Mikey we're talking about. His brother. He cares a lot about Mikey, or just the only person he cares about in general. That's the way Gerard wants it to stay, but he doesn't always get what he wants.
