I woke up cuddled to a still asleep Gerard. His raven locks were all over the place and his mouth slightly open letting out the occasional soft snore. I didn't want to go to school today I just wanted to stay there. I kissed his jaw and he stirred a little. "Gee wake up we have to get ready for school." I said softly. He shook his head, closing his eyes and pulling me back close to him. "C'mon wake up!" 

"Fine" He groaned, pecking my lips and getting out of bed. He went to his dresser and found himself an outfit. He went to a cardboard box in the bottom of his closet filled with clothes he had grown out of and pulled out some for me to wear, so I wouldn't have to wear the same outfit to school. He went and changed in the bathroom. I walked into the bathroom as well (Don't worry I knocked) and brushed my hair and stole some of his eyeliner to use. Once we were all done with that we went downstairs and drank some coffee until Mikey emerged. With that, we headed off to another day at high school. We all parted ways and headed to class. Nothing really note-worthy happened so I'll just spare the mundane details.

We went to hang out at Gerard's after school for a little while, but I decided I should head home by dinner time. Gerard insisted to walk with me. "Bye Sugar" He said as he kissed me. We broke apart and he just looked down at me with the sweetest smile. He was always so happy when I was around. 

"Bye Gee" I said as I turned and walked to my door. I opened the door to a surprise. It was my mother standing there by the window, arms crossed. She turned to face me with a furious expression across her face. She was livid. Her body language made me freeze where I was. What could get her so pissed off? 

"Where have you been young lady?" She said with an impatient tone. 

"At a friend's house and school?" I said more like a question than an answer. Mom never really gets upset but when she does things can go from zero to a hundred real quick. 

"And is this "friend" that boy I just saw you with?" She said raising her voice. I nodded and she shook her head. "I was worried about you! I came up to check if you were here last night and you were just gone! And you didn't even call or text me!" She said whilst pointing her index finger at me. "Not to mention you were at some boy's house! Who was he and what were you even doing?" I always hate when parents are upset when teenagers hang out with the opposite gender. 

I just stood there not saying anything. Which probably made it even worst. "Say something child!" she demanded.

"His name is Gerard and I was hanging out with him and my other friends and then it got late so he offered for me to stay over." I explained vaguely. I was definitely not telling the part about us almost getting arrested for spray painting. 

"And do you wanna explain him and you kissing just now? Or are we just gonna pretend that I didn't see that?" she said with her hands now on her hips.

"We aren't officially boyfriend and girlfriend but we are dating." I said kinda nervously, turning my gaze to the floor. I didn't know how she would take this because I've never had anything close to what Gerard and I are in the past. 

"You're grounded for three weeks." She said bluntly. I sighed and thought of how I could get out of that. 

"What if you meet him? Would you maybe reduce that?" I suggested. She seemed to contemplate this for a minute. I didn't think she'd actually consider it.

"Ok, how about you invite him for dinner, so we could get to know each other." I knew what she meant by "get to know each other". She was gonna make sure I wasn't hanging around a bad influence. Mom has always been quite protective of me around men since what happened with my father. I walked upstairs to my room. I grabbed my phone from my pocket and texted the group chat. 

Y/n: Damn I just got grounded so I can't hang out for a couple of weeks :(

Sass Queen: What for Sugar? 

Y/n: Staying over at your house

Fronk: And what were you two up to? ;)

Y/n: Get your mind out of the gutter Fronkie

Princess Fro Fro: He can't he's too far gone

Moikey: Very true

Sass Queen: Yeah we've had to put up with his mind for years

Y/n: Ugh I'm hungry. I could go for some Chinese rn

Sass Queen: On it!

Y/n: He's not really gonna bring me food is he?

Moikey: I mean he is putting his shoes and jacket on so possibly

Fronk: Geebear you've never brought me Chinese :( 

Y/n: Aw is poor Frankie jealous? 

Fronk: Yeah... 

Y/n: I'm sorry Fronk *pats head*

Fronk: Thanks for your sympathy Y/n

Moikey: Yep He left

Y/n: Oooo I'm excited

After about thirty minutes I looked up from my phone and there was Gerard, balanced on a tree branch, knocking on my window. I got up and opened it, letting him in. "Hi Gerard"

 "Hey Sugar, didn't think I'd actually bring you food hmm?" He said setting the bag of food on the bed. I shook my head and he walked over to me gently holding my face in his hand. He tenderly kissed me and then broke away to sit on the bed. I joined him and he passed me some chow mein. I snapped a picture and sent it to Frank just to make him more jealous.

"How did you even get up to the window?" I asked. I put on some American Horror Story and ate my food. 

"Oh there was a very convenient tree with a convenient branch that led right to your window." He explained. I nodded 'cause I had food in my mouth. 

"Thanks, Gee" I said finishing my food and lying down next to him.

"Of course" He responded while wrapping his arm around me. I got comfortable and we watched the episode for a little while. 

"Gee?" I said trying to get his attention. He hummed and looked over at me. "My mom said she wanted you over for dinner tomorrow." I hope that I'm not freaking him out by having him meet my mother.

"Ok, that works. Can I ask how she knows about us?" He responded. I let out a sigh of relief.

"She kinda saw us kissing outside my house earlier." I said biting my lip, feeling a bit awkward. His mouth formed into an 'O' shape and he nodded. We watched a couple more episodes before I was getting tired. "Are you staying or what?" I said getting up and walking to my dresser to grab some pajamas. 

"Yeah, if that's ok with you." He said, cocking an eyebrow.  

"Of course you can stay, Gee." I said with a smile. I pulled out some sleeping shorts and an oversized tee-shirt. Gerard pulled out some pajamas for himself from his bag. Sadly not a onesie. He just started to undress in front of me. 

"Enjoying the view Sugar?" He said taking me out of my trance. I shook my head and tried to hide the blush across my face. He walked over to me, still shirtless, and lifted my chin up to look at him. "Somebody's a bit flustered." He whispered in my ear, nibbling on it a little. I gasped and he chuckled. He trailed kisses down my jaw and down my neck. I let out a moan and he pulled away, smirking. He placed one last kiss on my lips and then went to put his shirt on. 

I turned and changed into my pajamas. Not bothering to change in a different room because he didn't and It doesn't really matter. I turned out the light and joined Gerard under the covers. He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me into his warm embrace. "Sweet dreams Sugar." he whispered. We fell asleep in each other's arms as we did the night prior. I just hope the dinner with mom goes well tomorrow. What if mom doesn't like him? I just hope she adores him just as much as I do or else we're gonna have a problem.
