    Summary

    All throughout high school, Frank and Gerard were an unlikely, inseparable pair; Frank with his girlfriends and his guitar and unmatched charisma for his height, Gerard with his sketchbook and his Walkman and a kind of genius that only Frank seemed to get.

    Frank was never great about talking about his feelings, and Gerard always felt the need to hide his. As they grow up and navigate life, careers and relationships, things get complicated, and no matter what, no matter how far they drift, they just can’t seem to stay apart.

    * This story takes place over the course of more than a decade, starting when Frank & Gerard are 18.

    “So why did you bring me here?” you questioned him, a tilt of your head.

    “I uh… thought we could talk more privately here,” he replied, practically sweating buckets now.

    “Mhm… couldn’t we do that in like a parking lot? Why here?” you continued to interrogate him.

    “I just…” he sighed like he was caught red-handed, “I wanted to kiss you and maybe… do more I dunno. I know it would be our first time and- I can just drive you home if you prefer.”

    He reached for the ignition as if he had already gotten his answer. He felt like a total pervert now. Assuming his date wanted to have sex with him.

    “I didn’t say no,” you replied.

    Summary

    “Wait,” Steve frowns, “woah- hang on. What are you asking here?”

    Eddie swallows. “I’m asking… I’m asking for your words, man.”

    “You want my-”

    “Your help. Your lyrics. Your lines- I mean fuck, Harrington- you’re wasting this shit here. It’s a goldmine. This notebook alone- and again,” Eddie grimaces, “I’m like, really sorry for snooping- but-”

    “You want to turn that into songs?

    Eddie nods. 

    Steve’s mouth hangs agape. Eddie can see a little of his tongue like that, pink and wet, and he looks away quickly.

    “What? No. No fuckin’ way.”
