gerard.        

Gerard woke up in the bunk, hitting his head on the ceiling of the bunk. "Fuck-" The boy cursed, sliding out of bed and checking his flip phone. 5:30 AM. Well, he was already up now, no going back. Gerard moved groggily yet nimbly around the tour bus, changing from his onezie to a pair of black ripped jeans and a hoodie. As he stumbled to the bathroom, his eyes settled upon a sleeping Frank. A smile spread onto his face. Gerard was quick to shake the smile off, reaching the bathroom and driving a comb through his messy black hair, brushing his teeth, and applying eyeliner. Once done, the lead singer moved to the coffee machine, flicking it on, adding coffee grounds, and adding some water.
Now,,,
We wait.
Gerard stared at the coffee pot as it filled, thinking to himself. He would do anything to just hold the other close,,
the other.
the other
Frank. He wanted to hold him tight to his body and keep him safe forever. Gerard shook the thought away. He had a girlfriend, what was he DOING??? The singer lit a cigarette and grabbed a portable paper coffee cup, adding a bit of milk and sugar to the glass before pouring a shit ton of coffee, until it reached the brim. Gerard moved the cigarette from his lips and took a sip, sitting back down and thinking. There was a comic shop nearby, why didn't he go check it out?? Only a few blocks away,,
He stood, snatching up a sticky note and writing "went on a walk, be back soon. -gee" on it. And with that, the boy was off with his coffee, cigarette, and 40 dollars in cash.

Frank awoke ten minutes after Gerard left, staring at the ceiling for about three minutes before standing up. The guitarist went to grab his flip phone when he realized Gerard was gone. His gaze immediately went to the bright yellow sticky note sitting on the table. "went on a walk, be back soon, -gee" Good. He had time to get ready and get to that comic shop. Gerard hadn't stopped talking about this one issue of Vampirella, and he was planning on getting it for him. Frank quickly changed into some cargo shorts and a hoodie, hurrying to the bathroom. The small man fixed up his hair and brushed his teeth, making his way to the main part of the bus. His gaze shifted to the coffee machine. Frank grabbed a disposable to-go coffee cup, adding some milk into the cup before adding the remaining coffee i to the cup. He took a sip, taking it all in before grabbing his phone and writing just bellow what Gerard had put on the sticky note "Off to hell, be back soon. -frank" And with that, he was off down the street with 20 bucks, his phone, and some coffee.
As he walked, the Iero boy let his mind wander. His heart ached when his thoughts began to race about their lead singer.
Gerard. God what he would do to sit in his lap and press himself close to the boy.
But Gerard had a girlfriend,
A girlfriend.
Fuck.

both

Gerard opened the door to the shop, 6:13 am.
The small store had just opened 13 minutes ago, perfect. He walked in, one other person was shopping. The much much taller man had a scruffy beard and was balding. Gerard smiled to himself as he began to look around,

Fifteen minutes passed, and Frank was nearing the shop. The guitarist picked up the pace, sipping on his coffee and eventually making it to the shop. He swung the door open and-
There he saw him.
Gerard.
Frank froze up, his mind racing as he slipped in. He hurried to hide behind a large shelf of comics, taking a deep sigh and starting to quietly search for the book. Gerard on the other hand was clueless, minding his business and just lookin around. Frank was always reading his comics in the spare time, so he was thinking of getting him up one of the new Walking Dead comics, issue no. 2. Gerard hummed, grazing the shelves before- there it was, the comic!! Gee's face lit up as he grabbed the issue, flipping through it. He nodded, walking to the register.
Just as this was happening, Frank had found it! The Vampirella issue Gerard had wanted!! His face lit up, grabbing the comic and waiting for gerard to finish at the register.
Gerard got the book bagged and made his way out the door, humming. Frank was quick to make a speedy purchase. "Thank you!!" He shouted, running out of the store with the bagged comic.

Frank ran, catching up with Gerard.
"Gee!!" He yelled, out of breath as he began to walk alongside the singer. "Frank?" He laughed, looking at him. "What are you doing here?" Gerard smiled.
"That's a good question- I actually came here to get you this-" Frank handed him the comic, still out of breath. Gee stopped dead in his tracks, staring at the issue. "You- How did you know?" The taller boy carefully took the comic, staring at it and then to Frank. "You were just always talking about it on the road- thought you'd like it." Frank gushed, looking away as pink settled on his cheeks.
Gerard slowly handed him the bag he was holding, "This is for you," The singer grinned. Frank dug into the bag pulling out the comic. Gerard was quick to speak up, "You always end up reading my comics during the trips, I thought you'd like your own." He smiled.
The tiny guitarist flushed up, hugging the taller boy. "Thank you so much,," He grabbed at the hoodie Gee was wearing, nuzzling his head into him. The Way son looked at Frank for a moment before hugging back, tight and protective. He loved this.
"Hey, why don't we head back and read these suckers, eh?" The tall boy looked down at Frank, smiling. "Fuck yeah," The smaller boy grinned. And just like that, the two were walking back to the tour bus.
