Photograph of You (Frerard/Rikey)

As Long As I have You (19)

-Franks POV-

I wandered through a forestry environment, a river flowing next to me the entire time. I was aimlessly following the stream, my eyes wandering over the swaying trees around me. Barely any light could reach the ground.
As I walked, it go darker. A white mist covered the ground, eventually I reached a clearing. The river was long gone, and I had no idea when I had stopped following it.
A figured stood in front of me, neither of us moved. I couldn't tell who it was, it was to misty to see clear. A dizziness car over me, I slid down to the ground to keep myself from falling.
I set my hand on my head, falling back on the forest floor. Footsteps could be heard, someone stood in front of me, reaching their hand down to me. Once again, I couldn't see clearly.
My body refused to respond, my eyelids growing heavier. Gravity pushed down on me, until everything went black.

I woke up, taking a deep breath in and pushing myself up. Gerard was sitting on the floor by the couch, he pulled himself up on the couch and pulled me into his lap.
"Shhh it's ok baby, what happened?" I wrapped my arms around him, he did the same but in a more protective way.
"I was in a forest, and it got really dark and misty and someone was there but I couldn't see who and I got dizzy and passed out." I said it all in one breath that left me taking another deep breath in.
"Don't worry, your safe. I'm here with you ok?" Gee hugged me tighter, I laid my head on his shoulder until my heartbeat regulated.
"I know. I'm ok, I'm alright." He kissed the top of my head, not letting me get up. "Good, that's a good way to think. I love you Frankie." He smiled at me, I did the same.
"I love you too Gee, want some coffee?" He nodded, letting me get up and following me to the kitchen. "Mikey go out with Ray or something?"
"Mhm, left- wait what time is it?" I was already working on the coffee, and stole a quick glance at Gee.
"It's around 6, about dinner time. What do you want to eat?" He answered as though it was the most casual thing in the world.
"Uh- I don't know and you should have woken me up Gee..."
"But your so cute when you sleep, plus if something happened I would have woken you up but nothing did." He used a reassuring tone, sitting down at the table. I felt his eyes on me.
"Mikey left around noonish, want to say 1 maybe? I don't know but he's been gone all day."
"That's actually kind normal for Mikey, he always did that sort of thing in a relationship. It doesn't surprise me very much actually." Gee kinda laughed, what a heavenly sound.
I walked back into the room, sitting myself next to Gerard with a warm mug of coffee in my hands. "Wait you didn't get me any?" Gee faked a pout but I felt bad either way.
"We can share it." The words left my mouth before I could actually think about what I was saying.
"Aww how romantic." Gee kissed my cheek lightly, then took a sip for the cup that was still in my hands. "Movie?" I nodded eagerly and he smiled at my reaction. Movies with Gerard always meant cuddles and I love that.
He got up and put in something random, we both knew we wouldn't pay much attention anyway. He turned off the lights and sat back down, pulling me into his lap.
The two of us where more into each other than the movie, I let my head fall back against Gerard's chest, feeling his heartbeat increase a little bit. There were certain things I did that I knew drove him totally crazy but I did them anyway.
"You know, I'm really glad that I met you." I said the words quietly after about 20 minutes pass. I don't why I said it, I just did.
"So am I Frankie, I'm so happy that I met you. I have no idea what my life would look like if you weren't in it, thank you for being a part of it." He kissed me softly, I kissed him back.
It was moments like these that made people love each other, the small things that pulled two people closer. I wasn't going to get over him, I would always love him and I was pretty positive that it was mutual.
"I'll always love you, you know that right?" I asked him, he nodded and whispered close to my ear "I'll always love you more, and make sure that you know that. I promise I will." He paused.
"As long as I have you, there will be nothing that can keep us apart, nothing that anyone can do to stop me from loving you."
I smiled, he hugged me and I hugged him back. I wish I could have just frozen time in that moment, and stay in his arms forever.
