Frank was in the last day of his heat and his intense waves of sexual activity had dwindled, they had both gone back home the day before when Frank had had a panic attack, and had come to stay at Gerard's house for the night. They had woken up in Gerard's bed in the dim light of his bedroom when there was a knock on the door that had Gerard sit up. He walked over and peered out to see his mom, who was cheerfully standing there to tell him that Tyler was on the phone. Gerard went into the kitchen and answered the phone, "Hello?"

"Huh-Hey, Gee?" Tyler replied, and Gerard could practically hear the smile on his face, "I huh-heard you were home now."

"Yeah, I got home last night and Frank came to see me. He's still here." Gerard smiled at the thought of Frank waiting for him in bed, his stomach knotting.

"Awesome." Tyler gushed, "How was yuh-your first ruh-rut, then?"

"Big Ty?"

"Yuh-Yeah?" Tyler asked out curiously and Gerard sucked in a breath, his insides lurching uncomfortably with nerves.

"I-I gotta know something." Gerard trailed off, "But then... Then I have to tell you something."

"Wuh-What is it?"

"Okay..." Gerard exhaled shakily, hating once again that he was having problems expressing himself, "Well, I spent my rut with someone. When I was at Wayne's farm."

"You mean Fuh-Frank?" Tyler asked and Gerard yelped out, grimacing.

"How did you know?!"

"Gerard." Tyler laughed, "When we wuh-went to go and fuh-find him after he was suh-sick, his muh-mom told us he was at the fuh-farm where you were. You weren't eh-exactly suh-subtle."

Gerard went bright red, "Oh."

"So, what duh-did you wanna a-ask?"

"When you were with Frank, how did you handle him on his heat? He was fucking feral." Gerard rubbed the back of his neck when he heard Tyler cackling smugly, he frowned at the unexpected response.

"Fuh-Feral how?"

"After the first time we had sex and shit, I didn't wanna knot him, and he literally jumped me and wouldn't stop trying to mount me." Gerard snorted, vividly remembering the omega trying to claw at him, "How did you handle him?"

"O-Oh...?"

"What is it?"

"He was duh-desperate and kuh-clingy and all, but he wuh-wasn't like that with me." Tyler shrugged, "I don't thuh-think he's ever guh-gotten possessive wuh-wuh-with me."

Gerard frowned, "Really?"

"Wuh-Was it juh-just once?" Tyler asked after a moment of silence and Gerard frowned.

"No, it wasn't..." Gerard realized, "He did it every time."

"Gee..." Tyler snickered, "Duh-Don't you suh-see what's guh-going on?"

"What? I really don't."

"Fuh-Frank's guh-guh-getting attached to you instinctively. He's wuh-wolfing on you, dude." Tyler explained and Gerard remained silent, frowning as he tried to understand what Tyler was trying to get across, "Juh-Gerard, you're suh-suh-soulmates."

Gerard let out a laugh, waiting for Tyler to join him, but he was met with silence that only confused him even more, "Wait, what?"

"You're muh-muh-meant to be mated, Juh-Juh-Gerard." Tyler stated simply, "Thuh-Think about it. Huh-Has anything hah-hah-happened between you tuh-two that's duh-different? That you kuh-can't explain?"
