Just another runaway pair // Frerard

Chapter 1

HELLO WELCOME TO A FANFICTION BY ME :P Anyway enjoy! (these are in Frank's pov)

____________________________________________________

Gerard jolts awake beside me. His brow is covered with sweat, and his cheeks are wet with tears. He's breathing heavily.

I lean over him and brush a wet strand of hair out of his face. The scrap on my shoulder has scabbed over already, but my movement makes it throb again. Gerard sits up, rubs a hand wearily across his eyes, and glances around as if searching for something. He looks first at the stack of books in one dark corner then at the burlap lining the floor and a little bowl of fruit next to him. It takes him a moment to reorient himself, to remember that we sleep at my house now and in the same bed. Then a few seconds pass before he releases his rigid posture and lets himself sag back against the wall.

I gently tap his hand. "Are you okay?" That has become my constant question towards him.

Gerard shrugs, "Yeah" he mutters "Nightmare."

Nine days have passed since his younger brother Mikey died. Since then, Gerard has had nightmares every time he closed his eyes and woke up in a cold sweat every TIME. The first time we slept in the same room was when I snuck in to hang out with him. I mean he had asked me to so I was like alright. But that morning he woke up screaming. We were lucky his parents did not hear. After that, I developed the habit of stroking his hair right after he falls asleep, of kissing his cheeks and forehead and eyelids. He still wakes up gasping with tears, his eyes hunting frantically for simply his brother. But at least he does this silently.

Sometimes, when Gerard is quiet like this, I wonder how well he is hanging on his sanity. The thought scares me. I can't afford to lose him. I keep telling myself it's for practical reasons. But my heart keeps telling me otherwise. Besides I have no one else to love. My dog Lucifer had died, weeks before Mikey had, and Lucifer was the only one that really listened but then I found Gerard. He had been crying at a bus stop and something about him tugged my heart strings. 

When we had met it was a really dark, rainy night and I was returning home from hanging out with Lindsey and Jamia. They had needed 'fashion advice from a knowledgeable human'.  I mean you could say people breathe and that would be less obvious than this. Anyway I knew Gerard needed someone from just seeing  him like that. So here we are, in my summer house in New Jersey.  I hope he'll be okay by January, my parents return to our house then and when they find me gone, all of hell would be released on me when I return
