Roommates (Frerard)

-Frank's POV-
I woke up super early this morning.
Yesterday the teachers told us there was going to be a school fair and our parents/guardians or whatever were going to be there. I ran over to Gee and woke him up.
"Gee! Wake up."
"Hmm...? Oh, good morning Frankie." He mumbled sleepily. He was cute like this.
"Gee, today's the school fair thing. My mom is going to come. I'd let you meet her but..." I drifted off.
"But what?" He asked.
"She's... homophobic."
"Oh, I see. Well I have some idea."
"...and what is that?"
Gerard pulled out something from his backpack.
"You brought a dress?"
"Yes."
I was speechless. Why did Gee have a dress? I mean, I wasn't against it or anything, but he just casually had one.
"I don't know if that'll..."
"Oh come on Frankie,"
He put it on. He brushed out his hair and put on some tights.
He started singing something quietly.
"Well don't I look pretty walking down the street in the best damn dress I own?"
I giggled.
"What are you laughing at?" Gerard asked, putting the brush down.
"Just the fact that you're wearing a dress and you just casually have it in your backpack!!"
"I guess that is kinda funny. Anyway, how do I look?"
"Like a princess."
"Really?"
"Yes. You look like a princess."
Gee smiled.
I got ready. All i put on was a t-shirt and some pants.
We went outside the building where the fair was. I spotted a giant teddy bear.
"Oh my god..."
"What? You want the teddy bear?"
"Y-yes..."
"Alright." Gee declared, and walked over to the thingy.
I walked over there too.
Some guy was standing there. He asked, "Do you wanna play? Land 3 darts in the center of some of the targets, and you get a prize."
Gee said, "Yeah."
The guy handed him 3 darts and got out of the way.
Gerard threw one.
It landed right in the middle.
He threw another one.
Middle.
And the last one he threw...
He got it.
"Pick a prize! Anything."
He pointed at the teddy bear and the guy gave it to him.
"Here you go Frankie."
"Uh... Th-thanks!" I grabbed the teddy bear and then hugged Gee.
We walked over to where everyone else was standing.
There were adults everywhere, I'm guessing those were the parents.
I looked everywhere. My mom wasn't here yet. I grabbed onto Gee's hand.
"What do you say your name will be?"
"Oh, I've never really thought about it."
"Huh..."
We thought. Finally, Gerard said, "How about just Gee?"
"Okay."
I saw my mom's car park in the driveway.
I was getting anxious.
She was walking up to me.
"Hi Frank! How are you doing?" She asked.
"Uh- Good." I said.
"And who's this?" She asked excitedly.
"This is um..."
"I'm Gee, pleased to meet you ma'am."
"It's nice to meet you too!"
I smiled awkwardly.

A bit later, we had gotten lemonade and played some games. The fair was closing down inna few hours.
"See you sometime again! Bye Frank! And be good to Gee, she's a nice girl." My mom said, before she drove off.
I sighed.
Then I saw the one kid out of the corner of my eye. The kid who was bullying us.
"A dress? Ha! You've taken gay to a whole new level!!" He laughed.
"No one cares. And anyway, what's your name?" Gee asked.
"Why do you wanna know?"
"No reason..."
"Then I'm not telling you!" He walked over to Gee and kicked him in the leg.
Gee stood up.
"Okay punk, you can hurt me but don't you dare lay another finger on Frankie, got that?" Gee said.
"Oops!" He said, purposely laying a finger on me.
"Alright, that's it. You better fucking run."
"Hey Gee?"
"Yes?"
"Try not to ruin the dress, okay? I like you in it."
"Alright, I'll try not to get blood all over it."
"Wait what?"
"I'm just kidding."
"Oh."
Gee ran after the idiot, yelling threats like, "DONT TOUCH MY FRANKIE," "SHUT THE FUCK UP AND GET OUTTA HERE, PUNK," and, "I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN IF YOU HURT FRANKIE."
I dug my face into the fluff of my teddy bear. I was tired.
Finally, Gee came back.
He looked sad.
"What happened?"
"He's not going to leave us alone. He threatened you and me."
"This isn't good. What are we supposed to do?"
"I'm not sure."
"Should we tell the teacher?"
"No, cause when the kid gets suspended, he might be even meaner to us when he gets back."
"Come on, let's go back to the room."
I grabbed Gee's hand and we walked silently to the room. I lied down on the bed, hugging the teddy bear and facing the wall. Gee got out of the dress. I don't know what he changed to.

Gee lied down next to me. I turned around.

"Put a shirt on."
