|HOPE YALL LIKE FLUFF!|

Frank's P.O.V.

"Hey," Gerard says worriedly as she taps me on the shoulder. I was zoning off listening to music, I must not have heard her come in. I open my eyes to see her leaning over me, a confused and worry expression on her pale face.

"Are you alright?" she hesitates. 

"Fine. I'm fine," I lie. I sit up and pull out both my earbuds then set them on my bed.

"Ok," she sets her purse and bag down at the foot of my bed. 

"What do you want to spend the day doing? It just started raining as I came here," I notice the dark drops on her clothes and her damp hair.

"Oh. Hot chocolate and popcorn?"  I shrug. That's what I usually do on rainy days. 

"Perfect. I'll help you make it,"

We go to the kitchen and she makes the popcorn while I make us the hot chocolates. We take the food back to my room on a wooden tray and sit on my bed as we eat and talk, mainly about the weather.

"So what are you doing for Halloween?" she asks through a sip of hot chocolate.

"Probably staying home watching a movie and eating birthday cake in my room,"

"Birthday cake?"

"Oh, yeah," I chuckle, "My birthday is on Halloween."

"Thats so neat! You shouldn't have to spend it alone you know," she looks me in the eyes. She's hinting at something and I know it.

"What are you thinking?" I smirk.

"Come to my place. We can eat candy and watch those scary movies I know you like," she grins.

"That sounds wonderful. I'll do that," I set my mug down and plant a quick kiss on her forehead. I feel like I shouldn't casually kiss her just yet without asking. I don't want to move too fast. Her cheeks turn a light shade of pink and she bites her lip as she looks at the ground and giggles quietly.

After eating, we sit and talk on my bed for a long time. It's a blur of what the topics were, but I remember having fun and I remember her sweet giggle whenever something funny was brought up. Both of our heads shot to face the door as my dad knocked, announing that he's leaving for the night and won't be back until 12:00 or so and that we are on our own for dinner. 

"Wanna order a pizza?" I suggest.

"Pepperoni?"

"Half pepperoni and half cheese. I'm a vegetarian," I explain.

"Oh okay,"

I call and order a pizza, not stumbling with my words or even feeling awkward! I guess Gerard gives me confidence. We go to the living room and I put on a Disney movie for Gerard. Her eyes light up as she sees the cover of a red head mermaid sitting on a rock as turquoise waves crash behind her.

"I haven't seen The Little Mermaid in forever!" she exclaims happily as she sits on the couch close next to me. I wrap an arm around her shoulder and pull her close. This all just feels so right. I have an amazing partner to spend the night with, my dad isn't home, and its rainy weather, which is perfect for movies and pizza. We only get through the start of the movie when the doorbell rings. I really don't want to move away from Gerard, but I get up from the couch and answer the door, giving the lady money and thanking her before she leaves. I put the pizza on the large leather footrest we have in front of our couch and go to grab plates for both of us. Once both of us are stuffed, I put my arm back around Gerard and she cuddles into my side, wrapping both arms around my waist. It was hard to focus on the movie. We manage to finish almost the whole pizza. When the movie ended, we played another Disney movie and got some ice cream from the freezer as dessert.

At night time, Gerard changed in my bathroom into pajamas and I changed in my bedroom and we went to the living room to watch a 3rd Disney movie. When Gerard walked out, Gee looks so different. It's crazy how quick Gee is able to switch between gender presentation. Gee didn't have any makeup on or anything.

"'They'," was all they said before walking to the couch with me and sitting down. 

Halfway through the movie, Gerard yawned and rested their head on my shoulder which caused me to get so many butterflies in my stomach. I don't even know why. I've spent the night at their house plenty of times so this shouldn't feel like a new thing. Maybe it's because this time we're actually dating. 

I rest my arm around their waist and we stay like that until the movie ends. 

Gerard fell asleep, and there is no way I'm moving. I stay on the couch with them and fall asleep too...
