Ten Reasons (Frerard)

Chapter 29: It's your birthday!

While I was writing this, it occurred to me that since chapter 19 (Frank's birthday), Frank has been 18 and Gerard only 17. I am so so sorry if this bothered anyone but I only just realized it so I can't necessarily change it. But I think it's okay because they didn't do anything that needed legal consent as far as I know?

Again, I am so so sorry <3

:)

Gerard's POV:

"I love you." Frank mumbled against my neck as he sat on my lap, legs wrapped around my waist, arms around my neck. "I love you too, Frankie." I whispered, turning to kiss him on the lips.

He giggled and pulled away. "I love saying that to you. And hearing it right back." he then hugged me again. "Best thing ever." he whispered.

"You're so cute." I mumbled. "Am not!" he protested. "It just makes me feel special... And safe." he sighed, turning around so his back was to my chest and his head was back against my shoulder.

I wrapped my arms around his waist and kissed the side of his head. "You are special, baby." I said.

"Ughhhh there you go again." he drew out, bringing his hands up to cover his face.

"What?" I laughed.

"God dammit, Gee, you just make me feel like the king of the world, it's not fair." he mumbled.

"Good. Because you are." I kissed the top of his head. "My amazing king. Awesome, kind-" I started, placing a kiss on his head in between every adjective.

"Gee-" he giggled, trying to pull away. I tightened my grip around him.

"Understanding, adorable, smart-"

"Gerard stop it." he whined.

"Caring, cute, and really really fucking perfect." I mumbled.

"No-"

"Please?" I added.

"Fine." he turned around to face me again. "But you're the perfect one. And the cute one, smart one, adorable one, awesome, kind-"

I felt my face grow hot. "Frank noooooo." I whined, hiding my face in his neck. He giggled.

"Yessssss." he said, pulling me away from him.

He stared at my pouting face for a moment before glancing over at the clock near my bed.

12:02 am

Frank turned back to me, grinning.

"Happy eighteenth birthday, Gee." he whispered before kissing me passionately.

Wait, what?

It's that time already?

Goddamn...

I kissed back as soon as the shock factor went away, and Frank's arms instantly went around my neck as mine snaked around his waist and the kiss deepened, our lips fitting together perfectly like a puzzle as they moved slowly.

The action was filled with love and passion.

We pulled away breathlessly.

"You made it." Frank whispered. "I'm so proud of you, baby."

I grinned and kissed him again.

"Thank you..." I whispered, pulling away and resting my forehead against his.

"I love you." he said, pecking my lips again.

"I love you too. So fucking much." I said.

"Let's go to sleep, okay baby?" Frank said after a moment. "Okay... good night, Frankie." I said, kissing him one more time before leaning over to turn off the light and laying down, facing Frank again. He brushed the hair out of my face and leaned down to kiss me again before also laying down. "Good night, Gee."
