"Start clearing up, guys" Gerard said, rubbing off the whiteboard after a long day of teaching and supervising. He walked back to the desk, grabbing his phone once he received a text from Mikey. 

Come home. Need to talk

Gerard sighed to himself, switching off his phone as he turned back to his students, all chatting away with their friends. A few seconds later, the bell rang, making all the class run out of the room, too excited too finally go home. Gerard grabbed his coat in his hand and grabbed his case with the other one, heading out of the crammed room as well. 

"See you in a few hours, Mr. Way... or should I say Gerard" Frank suddenly said, knowing that he had another one of those 'private lessons' in a few hours. And by private lessons, he meant kissing his teacher every time his statement about Macbeth's character was correct. Smirking, he pushed his slicked up hair full of gel back as he tried catching up with the teacher. "At school it's Mr. Way, Iero" Gerard scoffed, walking down the stairs with the student still following him. They ended up outside in the parking lot, Gerard starting to walk up the street to go back home to his cranky brother. 

"See ya, Frank" Gerard winked at the younger boy, sending butterflies run around the student's stomach. 

He walked up the street, his usual pack of cigarettes in his hand as he entered into his apartment. He stuffed his hand in his pocket, fumbling for his keys, stuffing a key in the keyhole once he found them. Walking in, he saw a suitcase and two bags packed against the wall along with a jacket on top of them. He furrowed his eyebrows and closed the door behind him, tossing his coat and case onto the couch.

In walked Mikey with a smile on his face and crossed arms up to his chest. "The hell is this?" Gerard mumbled, looking from the suitcase and bags to his younger brother. "I'm moving out. They finally finished off my own apartment so... I'm leaving" Mikey said, walking over to Gerard. 

The older boy wanted to start cheering with joy and wanted to smile all day to his departure, but then again he was too lazy and tired to even show his happiness. "That's awesome" Gerard sighed, the tone in his voice still very monotone. 

"You're so sad aren't you..." Mikey joked, laughing at his depressed brother. He went over to him and wrapped his arms around his frame, hugging him tightly. "I'm so sorry that I hit you. I really didn't mean to, I promise" 

"It's fine. I'm sorry for being a dick in general" Gerard laughed, finally giving in as he hugged back, smiling. "Just take care of him for me" Mikey let go, seeing the older man raise an eyebrow and hum. 

"Frank. Take care of him. I might not really condone all of this but if you love him a lot then fuck it, right?" 

"Yeah... fuck it" Gerard scoffed as he saw Mikey giggle and start grabbing all his shit he left in the corner. "Oh, you're going now?" Gerard asked as Mikey nodded. "My Uber's here. I mean, I am going to the other side of the entire fucking state so..." Mikey threw a bag over his shoulder. "Right... call me once you get there, yeah?" Mikey nodded again, grinning widely as he grabbed the handle of his suitcase. 

He went to the door, opening it as he stood in the doorway before leaving completely. "I'm gonna miss you" Mikey lastly said. "Me too. Love you, man" Gerard smiled, giving his brother just one last hug. "Love you too, big bro"

5:35 PM

"Hey" Frank smiled once Gerard opened the door to his apartment, dressed only in boxer briefs and a plain shirt. "What's up" Gerard grinned back, as the younger boy walked in, his hair wet from taking a shower, with his usual ripped jeans and hoodie. "The sky, dummy" 

"Of course, you of all people would respond with that" Gerard rolled his eyes, scanning the smug look on Frank's face. 

"Yes, I am that annoying" Frank walked into Gerard's room, tossing his bag to the side as he jumped onto the bed, bouncing from the force. "Have you noticed that these 'private lessons' are starting to turn into just hanging out" Gerard walked into the room, his arms crossed as he looked at the teenager sat on the mattress, thinking about what Mikey said before he left. "I know. You have a problem, Mr. Way?" Frank bit down on his bottom lip, making Gerard scoff and slowly shake his head. "And Mr. Way is still not gonna give you extra credit for just coming over and making out" The older boy sat next to Frank, scanning his bright hazel eyes. 

"Well, I'll just try harder then..." The student smirked, pressing his lips onto Gerard's as the older boy grabbed Frank's waist, dripping the fabric of the hoodie in his fists. Frank placed his hands onto Gerard's chest, pushing him gently down on the mattress as he manoeuvred his legs to straddle his waist. They detached and stared each other down, a smile placed on Frank's lips once he managed to dominate Gerard a bit. 

"Gerard?... Do you like me?" Frank asked, softly dragging his hands down the older man's clothed torso. "Of course I do" Gerard smiled back, slightly concerned and confused as to why he asked in the first place. "Do you like spending time with me?" Frank asked again, resting his hands on Gerard's rib cage, feeling it go up and down every time he took a breath. 

"Why are you asking-" 

"-Just answer the question." Gerard sighed, his concerned expression settling into a relaxed and calm one. "Yeah..." 

"Would you wait two years until I turn eighteen?" Frank grinned, Gerard furrowing his eyebrows. "Were all those questions about this?" Gerard scoffed. The younger boy nodded, turning a bit pink. "I'm just asking, you know" 

"...I don't know" Gerard looked up at the ceiling, not wanting to look into the younger boy's sad eyes. "Oh..." Frank sniffled, swinging his legs off of Gerard as he stayed on his knees, looking at the older man with a frown. "I'm sorry-"

"-Don't be... It was a stupid question anyway..." Frank forced a smile. He expected him saying a big yes but he got turned down. Most 'I don't know' answers usually mean no. He always knew that. 

"Frank, don't get me wrong, I-I would wait but I seriously don't know what would happen in the future" Gerard sat upright, arranging his shirt by pulling it down a bit. "I get it... C-Could we just start the lesson" Frank got up from the bed, walking over to his bag as he unzipped it, grabbing his book. The older boy gulped, kind of regretting saying what he'd said. He hated the look on the student's face when he felt sad. He was someone with such joy that whenever he was down it felt like the end of the world. 

"No books" Gerard suddenly said, making Frank look up at him with a raised eyebrow. He quickly shook it off and placed the book back in his bag, standing back up straight with his arms crossed whilst he looked at the teacher on the bed.

Gerard examined him. He loved almost every single thing about him. He had beautiful eyes, gorgeous hair and lips so pink and soft that you would want to kiss him all day. His body was perfect. Too good to be a sixteen year old's body for sure and his short height diffused the hotness of his figure with cuteness. A plus would also be that he was very huggable and actually listened to you when you need to spill your heart out. Fuck, he felt bad for saying that to him. 

"C'mon" Gerard gestured with his arms for Frank to sit in front of him. Frank crawled onto the bed, crossing his legs over each other, hunched over. "Frank, I really hope you know that you are one of the most amazing people in the world and that I really, really like you," He started, putting a small smile onto Frank's lips, "If you want me to wait, I-I'll do it. I'm just gonna say that people change in two years time and I don't have a clue what would happen till then. Just keep that in mind, yeah?" 

Frank nodded, going forward to hug the older boy as he buried his face in the crook of his neck. 

"I understand" He mumbled between his skin.
