Chapter Thirty Four

Gerard wakes, feeling his body against Bert's warm and bare body. The protective embrace of Bert's tattooed arms that keeps Gerard rested into his bare body. Arms wrapped around, hand gripped on his hip.

As Bert seems to still be asleep after their long night, Gerard takes the opportunity to admire the art on his body. The tattooes inked in his soft skin. You could say Gerard has always had a bit of an attraction to tattoos.

He drags his finger along the ink tiredly. Fighting the weight over his eyelids to stay awake. "Morning babydoll." Bert voice mumbles tiredly, waking from the touch on his chest, knowing that means that Gerard's up.

"Good morning beautiful." Gerard mumbles sleepily. His jaw a little sore from last nights fun. They were up really late and passed out right after, which was only just a few hours earlier. Both extremely exhausted still.

Gerard feels a soft kiss placed on his head making him look up. "Can we just spend the day in bed. It's cold out and we're tired." Gerard mumbles tiredly. It's Saturday, he just wants to spend the day in bed with Bert.

"Of course, babydoll. I've just got to go check on my mom first. I'll grab you a coffee while I'm out, okay?" Bert says, wanting to check on his mom. Wanting to make sure she's comfortable and doesn't needn anything.

"Okay." Gerard says, moving off of Bert warm side as Bert gets up. Gerard giggles at he stares as Bert who's still naked from last night. Bert chuckles at Gerard, who's eyes are glued to him as he dresses. Everything about his body.

"What did I do to deserve you?" Gerard grins as he watches him dress, earning a laugh and sarcastic comment in response from Bert. Finishing up dressed, Bert places a kiss on Gerard's lips before leaving and heading nextdoor to his house.

Gerard gets out of bed and walking over to the body sized mirror. He blushes as he examines himself, feeling good about himself today. Feeling cute. Gerard usually feels good about himself, always positive. But he also has some rare times that he can't stand himself and his looks.

He sees his lips are lightly swollen making him smirk at himself. He goes back and sits in bed, waiting for Bert to get back. Gerard loves Bert's relationship with him mom, it's the sweetest. She means the absolute world to him, he loves her unconditionally.

"Gerard? Sweetie?" Gerard hears Donna's voice along with soft knocks as she enters the bedroom. She offers a soft smile before sitting at the edge of the bed, beside Gerard. Gerard tenses, still uncomfortable after coming out.

"You know Bryan and I love you very much, right?" Donna says, taking Gerard's hand. Gerard hasn't barely left his room since they found out he's gay. Donna's been really supportive of them, unlike Bryan. But Gerard can't help feeling nervous and insecure around them, or anywhere besides his room.

Gerard looks down at his lap. Mumbling a pathetic "Yeah.."

"Sweetheart I know Bryan's angry right now, but he'll come around." Donna sighs, rubbing Gerard's back. "How about Bert and Jenna come for dinner tomorrow night. Maybe Bryan can get used to seeing the two of you together"

"I don't know, I'll talk to him when he gets back." Gerard sighs. Donna places a gentle kiss on his head before standing. Leaving the room to give Gerard some space and time to think about it and everything going on right now.
