Kissing Through The Fence (Frerard)

Bullshit!

Gee's P.O.V.

The night after Thanksgiving with Frank was tough. I had eaten way too much in too little time. I love the kid, but I felt kind of shit because of him. Around ten, like always, I heard three slow knocks on my door.

"Come in!" I called. My friend Melanie creeped in and locked the door behind her. She was my only friend. Besides Frank, of course.

"So how was Thanksgiving with Mr. Tattoos?" she asked.

"This is the last time, Mel. His name is Frank." I reminded her with a sigh.

"Yeah, whatever. How was it?"

"Not good," I replied.

"Why? Oh please tell me he didn't-" I cut her off.

"He made me eat, okay?" I had told her about the whole bully thing already. She stayed silent for a long time.

"Well, at least he didn't drag you into a random alley and rape you."

"Mel!"

"Come on! It's a very real possibility! You can't blame me, I'm just looking out for you."

"Okay, sure. But he said he's gonna come back daily and give me food. And I can't purge here because they'll know." I looked down at my black and gray bedsheets.

"Did he say he's doing it because he loves you?" She asked. I nodded. "Bullshit! I've had way too many guys say that and then leave for some basic bitch. I can't have that happen to you."

My head snapped up. "So what should I do?"

"See how much he actually values you. Threaten to leave him or some shit and see what he does." My eyes widened.

"But Mel, I could never! I-I..." I looked down again. "I love him." I whispered. She rested a hand on my shoulder.

"Now, it's time to see how much he loves you."

The next day, sure enough, Frankie showed up with some pizza. Damn. I forgot when the last time I had good pizza was. I'd have one slice, then I'd be done.

"Frank, we need to talk." I told him. He snapped out of a daze he was in to look at me.

"What about?" He asked as he looked at me with those soft, hazel eyes. Fuck. I'd never want to leave this cute little shit. It'd be hard lying to those sweet eyes.

"You can't be here every day. Humans need time apart, right? And, I might be taking in too much food in too little time if we continue this. It's a sweet offer though, and I love your concern for me." His eyes grew sad and I had to look away.

"So...are we breaking up?" He asked, beginning to get a bit choked up.

"Just for a little bit, okay? I feel like we're taking things a bit too fast. I need a bit of time to adjust to the idea of being in a relationship, do you understand?" I cupped his cheek and wiped away a tear that had fallen.

"Yes. I do. If you change your mind, you know where I am." He pointed to his brother, huddled up in the corner, like always. "I'll be back next week to check on him. Goodbye, Gerard." He slowly got up to leave. I hated watching him go. Wait, what was I doing?! Watching the man I love just walk out of my life? Hell no! I ran up behind him, picked him up, and brought him back to my room. He looked confused as hell and I laughed out loud.

"I love you, dammit! I could never leave you." I cupped his cheek and pressed a kiss to his soft lips. As I pulled away, I realized I had never really taken the time to admire his tattoos.

"I'm sorry, but what the hell just happened?" He suddenly asked. I explained to him what Mel had said and how I was going through with the plan, but I couldn't bare to watch him go.

"I see. My guess as to why she said that is that maybe whenever someone said that to her, they were lying." He gazed into my eyes and took my hand in his. "But when I say it, I couldn't mean anything more. I promise." I smiled and looked down at his tattooed hand. I pushed his sleeve up to see more. He cupped my cheek and smiled. Thinking instinctively, I kissed his cute little red lips as he laid back on the bed. He flipped us over and began to straddle my hips.

"Jesus Christ! I told you to give him space, not put his dick in your ass!" Mel's voice came from the doorway as Frank scrambled off of me.

"We would have gotten there if you hadn't rudely barged in!"

"Haven't you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door! It was wide fucking open!"

"I'm just gonna leave..." Frank almost whispered as he rushed out of the door. Mel's eyes followed him as he left.

"You and I will have some serious words tonight." She growled and slammed the door, leaving me all alone.

Again.
