Gerard smiled as he reached to get some popcorn as well, and their hands collided. "It's ok. We should go out more often." He said quietly, gulping when he realised what he had said, and pulled his hand back quickly, blushing.

Frank blushed darkly as he quickly looked down. "Sorry bout that." He said as he took a sip from his pop.

Gerard shrugged. "No problem." The words 'Please do it again' nearly fell out of his mouth, but he caught himself, and shoved some popcorn into his mouth.

The smaller man bit his lip he looked over to his best friend, he was going to tell him, he didn't want to keep quiet about it any more. "Hey Gerard...Ummm can I ask you something?"

Gerard nodded, his mouth full. After swallowing the popcorn, he turned to Frankie. "Of course. I'm listening all the time...well, right up until the point where the film starts, of course."

Frank giggled softly at that. "What would you do if someone close to you...was in love with you?" He asked as he looked down at his lap and picked at a hole in his pants.

Gerard shrugged. "I don't really know. I haven't given it that much thought. It depends who it was, really." He blushed. "What would you do?"

Frankie bit his lip lightly and looked down. "Same I guess...I don't know...I kind of have my heart set on this one guy that I'm friends with." He said softly, hoping that Gerard would get his hint.

Gerard frowned, a little downhearted. "Well, I suggest you tell him." He said quietly, concentrating on the screen, even though it was still the adverts. He had thought that Frank had a crush on his brother, but this confirmed it. "I'm sure you two will be very happy together." He mumbled, blinking away the tears in his eyes.

Frankie nodded before he desided to just go for it like Gerard told him to, but insted of telling him, the tattoo covered young man leaned forward and kissed Gerard on the cheek.

Gerard jumped back, staring at Frankie. "What was that for? I said tell him, not kiss the person next to yo..." He cut off, blinking. "Oh." He blushed, although he didn't think that the other man would be able to see it.

Frankie winced as he thought that he was going to get yelled at before he jumped to his feet. "I'm sorry Gerard." He said before he ran out of the theater and headed back for the bus.

Gerard appologised to the people in the audience, and ran out after Frankie. Looking around the cinema, he couldn't see him, so ran outside, pulling him back from getting on the bus.

Frankie yelped as he was pulled away from the bus and back to Gerard. "I'm sorry! I shouldn't have said anything." He whimpered as he tried to get away from him the best he could.

Gerard walked quickly away, pulling Frankie with him, into a small alleyway. He pushed the other man against the wall. "Did you mean what you did?" He asked, forcefully.

Frankie started to panic a bit and started to kick his legs as his heart started to speed up before he was pushed into a wall. "Y-Y-Yes I did." He whimpered softly as he bowed his head and closed his eyes tightly.

Gerard smiled and pressed his lips against Frankie's. "I love you Frankie." He said quietly, waiting to see the other man's reaction to his words, and to his actions.

The small guitarist gasped softly before his eyes opened and he looked at Gerard with wide eyes, he hadn't expected him to do that, or to say that. "D-D-Do you mean it Gerard?" He asked softly as he lightly bit at his lip.

Gerard nodded, closing his eyes and looking away. He released Frankie from his position, held up against the wall. "Yeah, I do." He said, quietly.

Frankie slowly smiled brightly before he hugged Gerard tightly. "I love you so much Gerard." He said with a small whimper as he lightly nuzzled at his neck with a small sniffle.

((Sorry I haven't been on for a while. I was bogged down with exams.))

Gerard grinned as his neck was nuzzled. "I love you too Frankie." He said, hugging the other man and kissing him gently on the lips.

Frankie sighed softly into the kiss before he wrapped his arms around the slightly taller mans neck and shoulders.

((Sorry, I was on holiday. :D))

Gerard pulled away. "Shall we go home?" He asked quietly, noticing that a new bus had pulled up at the bus stop.

"Sure." He said with a nod of his head and started to look around for their bus. "Umm Gerard...where's the bus?" He asked as he looked back up at him.

"Well...I think it's gone." He said, a little sheepishly. "Looks like we can either wait, or walk."
