Gerard Way didn't sleep much that night. Although he was in the comfort of his own apartment and Franks arms, the day before had really took a toll on the confused boy.

He couldn't help but overthink what had happened and why Frank was involved. Frank had literally killed someone in front of Gerard and didn't seem phased by it.

Even though the man was evil, if Gerard had to kill someone he surely wouldn't be sleeping as soundly as Frank was.

It was now 7am and the redhead hadn't even closed his eyes. He just stared at the ceiling, wondering who the man next to him really was.

Gerard wanted to believe that Frank was just being robbed but if so, why couldn't they call the police? So many things just didn't add up in the boy's head.

He needed to know what was going on. He couldn't wait any longer. The variety of different scenarios his brain had created were making him want to rip his hair out.

"Frankie?" Gerard muttered, shaking his sleeping boyfriend softly. The man stirred in his sleep, mumbling quietly and pulling Gerard into a tight hug. "Hmm?" He spoke through closed eyes.

"Can you wake up, please?" Gerard asked, only just realising he was crying slightly. Franks eyes finally cracked open, his face falling sympathetically at the sight of Gerard.

"Why are you awake, beautiful?" Frank asked sadly, brushing Gerards hair from his face and kissing his head.

"I haven't slept." The boy answered honestly. More tears threatened to spill over his eyes, but he bit his lip to stop them. He didn't think Frank would tell him everything if all of this had effected him too much.

"Oh Gee..." Frank trailed off, knowing his life style was the reason for his boyfriends sleepless night.

"Please, just tell me everything." Gerard spoke pleadingly, watching Frank think for a moment before sitting up and sighing.

"Gee, I don't want to involve you." He said sadly, causing Gerard to sit up and face him.

"You involved me the second I became your boyfriend." Gerard retaliated confidently. He saw his boyfriends internal dilemma. He was hoping Frank wouldn't lie to him.

"I own one of the biggest illegal drug and fire arm companies in America." Frank began, shocking Gerard. The redhead stayed silent however for the man to continue.

"Pete and Andy are my closest men who help me run the business. All the others are just guards to protect the money and valuables in my home." Frank continued as Gerard nodded slowly.

"What happened last night was a raid from a rival company who needs money that we have. We had no idea it'd happen which is weird because we're usually one step ahead of Bert but I guess I've been a little distracted lately." Frank admitted, causing Gerard to put his head down.

"And that's why Pete and Andy don't like me?" Gerard asked sadly. Frank sighed, taking hold of Gerards hand.

"They don't like you because they think you're just some random boy I'll become infatuated with and then throw away. I risked a lot for your safety yesterday, Pete and Andy are trained to protect the valuables but I made them protect you instead which they couldn't understand." Frank began, rubbing soothing circles at the back of Gerards hand.

"They're beginning to understand just how special you are to me though." Frank smiled, squeezing Gerards hand.

"I get if you don't want anything to do with me, I lied to you. I just didn't want you to get hurt, but you did. I'm sorry." Frank spoke sadly. Gerard was sure that the man was now crying which broke his heart.
