The Madness of Mania (Frerard AU)

Chapter 12

[Frank's P.O.V]

I woke up the next morning laced within the arms of Gerard. I hummed happily as I traced his hand draping across my chest.

My mind wondered to the past, thoughts of yesterday all the way to when I first met Gerard. Recalling last night, I think it's safe to say that Gerard has a blood kink. And lets just say I'm not against it.

I recalled how he technically kidnapped me, but...we're together now, he loves me and I love him - I couldn't be happier. We couldn't be happier.

Thoughts of the life we could have together also wondered through my mind. I turned over so I was now facing Gerard - our faces inches apart. My shuffling, however, stirred him in his sleep. I brushed the hair out of his face as his eyes lazily opened.

He smiled tiredly before leaning in to place a kiss on my lips - of course I chose to ignore his morning breath.

As we pulled away, just slightly, I returned the smile, thoughts still swirling in my mind.

"Do you think about the future?" I asked curiously.

He studied my face, tilting his head slightly before answering.

"Sometimes I do, but mostly I like to live in the moment." He paused before continuing. "Just like being with you, right here, right now." In which he trailed more kisses along my jawline.

I smiled at that, showing my appreciation by gently brushing a hand though his hair.

"But of course I like to plan my revenge," he continued, "the guards and doctors are gonna fucking pay. Why are you so curious anyway?"

I froze at his words - I had a feeling he'd eventually suss me out, but I didn't know how to say what I was feeling without being too forward.

"Uhh...I guess I was just wondering whether you ever considered having a family...as in, having children?"

A grin plastered his face as he leant up against the headboard.

I had known Gerard for barely two weeks but I was so in love with him that I couldn't envision any future without him.

"I can't say I haven't considered it." He paused, before once again grinning at me. "And nothing would make me happier than having a family with you."

I felt like I was in a trance, as though every word Gerard said was as a result of the dreamworld I was in. He really wanted this too.

"We could move far away," He continued, "where nobody knows us, adopt a child or even a baby! Frankie, we could get married and have a baby together!"

His excitement added to my own, and once again I became overwhelmed with my love for Gerard.

I reached up for Gerard's face, placing both hands on either side of his cheeks and pulled him down into a soft, intimate kiss.

"I love you so much Gee..."

Before he had the chance to reply, the doorbell rang followed by three knocks, which had seemingly originated from the front door.

Gerard huffed, reluctant to move his still tired limbs, but eventually climbed out of bed, even in his groggy state.

After throwing on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt, he made his way down the stairs to the front door.

I laid back, intertwined in the comfort of the duvet covers, waiting for my boyfriend to return.

[Gerard's P.O.V]

With a sigh, I fumbled with the lock of the door with a low-key hatred for the person standing the opposite side of it; who am I kidding, I hate everyone (with one exception); solitude with Frank was all I wanted.
