New Years [Frerard]

It was twenty of twelve, and Gerard was sitting in a lonely corner during a new years party. His new years party, actually. He was beginning to rethink hosting this goddamn party. It seemed a good idea at first....he wanted to see his friends, and get a chance to kiss Frank finally, but that wasn't gonna fucking happen because Frank was hanging with Jamia and he knew Frank had a thing for Jamia.

There goes Gerard's New Years kiss plan.

He sighed and put his hand in his chin as he watched Mikey and Pete laugh together. He flitted his eyes over to the couch to see Ryan cuddled in Brendon's arms. And then there was Josh and Tyler fooling around and throwing m&m's into each others mouths as Jack and Alex tried to eat bigger handfuls of popcorn than the other. When they failed they laughed at each other and shared a sweet kiss.

He balled his fists tightly before deciding to get up. He couldn't stand watching all the lovey-dovey couples when he had no one of his own.

He should've just stayed with being lonely and binge watching Sherlock.

Now it was five minutes to midnight, and everyone was crowded around Gerard's tv to watch the ball drop, including Gerard. He was the only one without a 'partner', though.

"Hey, is that Dallon?" Brendon asks, perking up and squinting at the tv.

"So that's why he's not here," Patrick mused.

"Oh look, there's Breezy!" Jamia said. "And Sara!!"

"Who wants to bet that Breezy kisses Sara instead of Dallon?" Pete snickers.

Gerard rolls his eyes and tunes out of the conversation.

Three minutes.

Two minutes.

Gerard looks around and still sees Frank and Jamia standing close to each other.

One minute.

Zero.

Everyone cheers.
He looks away as they kiss. He knows they do.

He blinks away tears. He knows its stupid, he really does. He could've just been upfront and like "hey Frank can I kiss you" but no. Heard of social anxiety?

Now that its after midnight and everyone is leaving, Gerard keeps the door open and bids everyone farewell as he halfheartedly thanks them for coming to his party.

Frank and Jamia are the last to walk out. Frank pauses in the doorway and lets Jamia out first.

"Happy new year, Gerard," Frank whispers, placing a kiss on Gerard's cheek before following Jamia and closing the door.

Gerard tentatively reaches up to touch his cheek before breaking out into a small, bittersweet smile.
