The Guitar Fic

Part 6: cookies & chaos

     Gerard woke up the next morning, he didn't move. He looked around, Ray and Tito passed out in the armchairs, Mikey, Matt, Brendon, and Ryan asleep on the other couch, the 3 of them were upright, with Ryan lying across their laps. It was only then that he noticed the word "CHEATER" written across Brendon's forehead, in dark, black ink. He laughed a little, then turned back to Frank, who was asleep on top of Gerard, his head resting on his chest. Gerard smiled, and rubbed Frank's back, until he woke up. Frank looked at Gerard, still half asleep, he inched himself closer to Gerard's face, and kissed him. "Morning." He said softly. "Good morning." Said Gerard. Frank kissed him again. "Did you notice Brendon's forehead?" Gerard asked. "Yeah" said Frank "its huge." Gerard laughed, "no look at it" Frank turned his head to look at Brendon, "cheater?" He said with a questioning look. "Yesterday? Dallon?" Said Gerard. "oooohh, that's right" said Frank, remembering the day before. "I love you." Said Frank, giving Gerard his cute ass smile. Gerard laughed "why do you have to be so cute?" He asked. "Because I love you!" Frank answered, wrapping his arms around Gerard's neck, still smiling like the cute little shit he is. Gerard smiled, "I love you too baby" Gerard put his hands on Franks shoulders, they slid down his sides, and down to his ass. Gerard sat up, pulling Frank closer to him in the process. Frank put his head on Gerard's shoulder, then lifted it back up to look at Him, he pointed to the scorpion tattoo on his neck, "he's hungry." Frank said. Gerard laughed "well then I guess we better go feed him." He said. Gerard stood up with Frank still in pretty much the same position, and carried him into the kitchen. "Can I put you down now?" Gerard asked. "But the floor is cold!" Frank whined. "Fine I'll put you on a chair." Said Gerard. "No! I want you to hold me." Frank whined. "Fine, but I'm only doing his because I love you." Gerard said, "now, what do you want to eat." "Cookies!" Said Frank. "The last time we had cookies you guys tied me up!" Said Gerard. Frank giggled "I won't tie you up this time." He said. "You better not" Gerard said. Gerard set Frank on the counter, and got the cookies down from the cabinet, he had specifically put them in the top cabinet, the one that Frank could not reach. He handed Frank the cookies, and carried him back to the living room. Gerard put him down on the couch, and when he sat down Frank immediately crawled back on top of him. By the time they got back to the living room, Frank had already eaten three cookie. "You better give me some." Said Gerard. Frank held the box out to him. Them chewing was loud enough to wake up Mikey. Mikey opened his eyes and looked around, he pushed Ryan's feet off of his lap, and ran over to Frank and Gerard. "Gimme some!" He yelled, jumping on top of Frank, and stealing a handful of cookies from the box. Mikey's yelling woke up the rest of them, and soon enough, they were all fighting over this box of cookies. Ray took the box from Frank, they were all on top of Gerard, fighting over this box of cookies. Frank curled up in a ball on Gerard's lap. As soon as someone's elbow hit Gerard in the head, he squirmed off the couch, pulling Frank with him, and ran with him upstairs. He ran into their bedroom, and locked the door. He threw Frank on the bed, and fell on him. They were both breathing heavily. Gerard got up and went into their closet, he came back out with another box of cookies. Frank jumped up "more cookies!?" Gerard threw him the box "yep." Frank jumped off the bed a started running towards the closet "what else ya got in there!?" Gerard caught him before he reached the closet though "stay outa there!" He yelled, while restraining Frank from getting any closer to the closet. Frank stopped, and looked at him, then lunged toward the closet again, Gerard just caught him again, he picked him up and put him back on the bed. "Just eat your cookies!" Gerard yelled. "Fine." Said Frank, stuffing a handful of cookies in his mouth. Gerard shook his head, and sat down with Him, he could hear the rest of them screaming at each other about that other box of cookies "you're telling me they didn't eat all those cookies yet?" Frank shrugged, he didn't care, he just wanted to eat his cookies. Gerard rolled over, laying his arm across Franks chest, and burying his face in a pillow. "What's wrong?" Asked Frank. "I want all these people out of our house." Said Gerard. "They're driving me insane." "Yeah, they are being pretty annoying." Said Frank. "Frank?" Said Gerard. "Yeah?" "Get. Them. Out." Gerard looked like he wanted to cry. Frank noticed this. "Okay, I'll try." Frank said. He got up, and went down stairs, everyone was sitting on one couch watching TV. There were crumbs, and pieces of broken cookies were all over the place. "Animals." Frank mumbled. "Hey guys, I think you should go home now." Said Frank. "Why?" Asked Ryan. "Because you're giving Gerard and headache, plus you've been here for weeks." Said Frank. "Is he okay?" Asked Mikey, now a bit concerned about his brother. "He's fine, can you all just go home for a while?" Mikey stood up, "can I see him?" He asked. "No I think you should just leave him alone for now." Frank told him. "But he's my brother, come on." Mikey tried manipulating him. "No, just go home." Frank told him. Then Mikey got right in his face. "let me see my brother" he said, holding up a fist. Frank backed up with his hands up. Mikey stomped up the stairs, and knocked on the door. "Gerard? Can I come in?" There was a short silence until he heard Gerard's quiet voice say "yeah." Frank watched from the bottom of the stairs until Mikey disappeared into the room. He then turned back to the rest of them. "And the rest of you" he pointed to the door "out." They all reluctantly got up and left, Matt stopped at the door "can I wait for Mikey?" He asked "wait outside." Said Frank. Matt looked at him, and walked outside, pulling the door shut behind him, he waited in their car. Frank ran back upstairs, and went into the bedroom. Mikey was knelt down beside the bed talking to Gerard. Frank got on the bed behind Gerard and hugged him. "Are you okay? Do you need water or something?" Mikey asked. Gerard wasn't really answering his questions, just moaning in response. He still had his face buried in a pillow, "head hurts" he said. "Do you wanna take a nap?" Asked Frank. "Yeeesss." Gerard whined. Frank motioned for Mikey to leave. Mikey stood up "hope you feel better." And left. Gerard rolled over and looked at Frank, "I'm tired of doing everything around here." He said. "You mean you want me to help out more?" Frank asked. "Yes, and stop being so needy, I love you but..." "okay, I think I can do that" Gerard smiled, reaching up, and touching Franks cheek. Frank leaned down and kissed him. "Thank you." Gerard said. "You still wanna rest now?" Frank asked. Gerard nodded slightly, just enough to be noticeable. "Okay." Frank whispered, he kissed him again, and pulled Gerard's jeans off to make him more comfortable. Gerard pulled his knees up to his chest, and Frank pulled the blanket over him. Frank stood up and puffed out his chest, "I shall protect this house from all dangers, nothing can hurt you." He said. Gerard laughed, "I believe in you." He said. Frank was still trying to look manly, but collapsed into laughter, he kissed Gerard on the forehead, "feel better, baby." He said, and left the room, pulling the door shut quietly behind him. He got to the top off the stairs, and immediately noticed that the front door was hanging open. "Mikey..." he mumbled. He walked down the stairs and poked his head out the door. He looked around, nothing. Matt's car was gone indicating they had left. He shut the door, making sure to lock it. He heard some shuffling noises from the kitchen, he ran in, to see Tyler digging around in a cabinet. "What are you doing?!" Asked Frank, in a sort of whispery yell. "Looking for more candy." Said Tyler. Frank smacked his forehead. "Why don't you just go buy some?" He asked. Tyler stood up. "I don't have any money." He said. Frank sighed, "stay there." He said, and ran back upstairs and into his bedroom. He crept around to the other side of the bed to get his wallet off his nightstand. He pulled out a twenty and set the wallet back down. "What are you doing?" Gerard asked, his words sightly muffled by the pillow. "Getting money for Tyler to buy candy." Frank said "mm." Gerard grunted, not really caring to hear the whole story. Frank ran out of the room, and down stairs, giving Tyler the money. "Here, go buy candy." He told him. "But I don't have a car." Tyler whined. "There's a store literally like, a block away, you can walk." Said Frank. Tyler grunted, and walked out the door, Frank locked it behind him. He realized he should probably get dressed. So he went back upstairs, and into his room. Gerard heard him come in. "Now what are you doing?" He asked. "I'm just getting dressed, I've been wearing nothing but underwear for like, three days." He said. "It's a miracle!" Gerard laughed. "Oh shut up." Said Frank, pulling on jeans and a T-shirt. Gerard was tempted to say "I'll have those clothes right back off of you, soon enough..." but he stopped himself, it was still true though. Frank walked over, and bent down to kiss him. "I'll check on you in a little while, okay?" Frank said. "Okay." Said Gerard with a smile. Frank left to room pulling the door shut behind him, he went into the living room and started flipping through channels on the tv. That was when he heard a metallic crash from the kitchen, then screams, followed by someone screaming "Mikey nooo!!!" And loud noise. "What the fuck is Mikey doing here? And how did he get in?" Frank though to himself. He got up and started running toward the kitchen while yelling "Mikey what the hell did you do?" He got into the doorway of the kitchen, and stopped, he saw Ray, Mikey, and Bob standing against his counter shoulder to shoulder, as if trying to hide something. Mikey had his hands behind his back. "What the hell was all that noise?" Frank asked. Ray and Bob both looked at Mikey, as if waiting for him to tell Frank what happened. Ray kicked Mikey's ankle, making him drop something that he had been holding behind his back, he jumped at the sound, and looked at Frank with a guilty smile. Franks eyes shot down to the floor. A fork. He slapped his hand to his forehead, and looked down to his feet. "Michel James Way..." he mumbled. He walked over, and shoved them to the side so he could see the counter, he stared at the mess for a few seconds, before turning around to look at Mikey. "You own me a new toaster." He said, before walking away back toward the living room. "My cookie got stuck!" Mikey blurted, Frank spun around, "why the hell was your cookie in my toaster?" He asked. Mikey shrugged. Frank sighed, and turned back around, and went back toward the living room, he found Gerard standing at the bottom of the stairs. "What was all that noise?" He asked. "Mikey. Fork. Toaster. AGAIN." Said Frank. "I thought you kicked them out?" Said Gerard. "I did, I don't know how they got back in." Frank said. "Well I'm not paying for another toaster." Said Gerard. "I know, I told him he has to buy us a new one." Frank said. He was visibly frustrated, Gerard noticed, and hugged him. "I'm sorry" he said. "It's not your fault." Frank said, his voice muffled by Gerard's shirt. "Well... that might not be completely true." Gerard said. Frank looked up from Gerard's shoulder, "what do you mean?" He asked. "Well, I was the one who gave him a spare key." Said Gerard. Frank just looked at him, and lowered his head back on Gerard's shoulder. "It's okay, I'll make him buy us a new toaster." Said Gerard. Frank nodded, and they walked into the living room. There in the middle of the floor were a guitar, and a ball gag. Frank stared at what was on his floor "oh for fucks sake!" He yelled. Gerard just rolled his eyes, a picked up the items. He walked into the kitchen Ray, Mikey, and Bob were still there "who's is this?" He asked. Mikey screamed, "oh, I must have left that here..." said Bob. Ray glared at him. Gerard moved his hand holding the guitar toward the door. "Get the hell out." He said. Bob took the items from Gerard and walked out the door. Gerard looked at Ray and Mikey. "You too, go" they moved toward the door. "Uh, Mikey take that toaster with you, and throw it in the trash, your buying me a new one." Ordered Gerard. "Fiiiiine" Mikey whined. Gerard went back to the living room to find Frank lying on the couch, Gerard sat down, and pulled Franks head into his lap. Before long they both fell asleep.

Gerard woke up hours later, he looked out the window, it was now dark. Frank was still asleep in his lap, he picked him up, and carried him upstairs, he put him in their bed. Then the phone rang from down stairs, he sighed, and walked down the stairs and picked up the phone, the person on the other end was breathing heavily and possibly crying. "I can't find Josh!" He cried, it was Tyler. "Okay, okay, calm down Tyler i'll look for him." Gerard told him. He then hung up the phone, and went back upstairs. He walked into his room and sat on the bed. He took a deep breath, "I know your in the closet Josh, get out." He sat on the bed and watched as Josh ran out of the room. He shut the door, and went to bed.
