Heaven and Hell Start With the Same Letter (Frerard AU)

Gerard's POV

"Thanks for letting me borrow your phone.", I say, handing the device back.

Lindsey smiles, taking it, and slipping it into her pocket.

"Why'd you need it?"

"I told you, to listen to music."

"Yeah, but... you never asked to listen to music before?"

"I thought you just started working here?"

"Well, I asked around to see if you've ever asked to do this kinda thing before."

I sigh, "I really wanted to show Frank."

And if I'm not mistaken, I see her smile drop, and her body tense.

"So you and Frank. Are you guys...?"

I feel my heart rate pick up. If they knew, they're going to move one of us, and I can't have that happening.

"No, of course not."

She rolls her eyes, "I'm not going to tell anyone"

And even though I kinda trust her, I still can't risk it. There's cameras around here, and even thought they don't record sounds, you never know who could be around the corner.

"Nope, there's nothing going on between us."

She raises her eyebrow, "I don't think there's anything special about him anyways. He's just a crazy patient."

"Hey, don't say that about him.", I say, my voice picking up.

She smirks, "I knew it."

I sigh, letting my guard drop a little, "There's nothing going on between us. He's just a friend, my only friend, and the only person I care about, don't talk about him like that."

Her face suddenly turns sympathetic, "You know I don't actually mean it."

I run my hand through my hair, "Yeah, I know."

"Gerard?", c0mes a familiar voice.

My ears pick up, and I turn around, walking towards the sound.

"Frank?"

As I'm about to turn the corner, someone walks into my chest. He automatically recoils, and is about to fall over, but I catch him at the last second.

"Hey! Get your hand off of me, please!", he shouts frantically.

"Hey Frank, it's just me, Gerard. It's ok."

He looks up, "Gerard?"

I smile at him, and he smiles back.

"Sorry, I just...you scared me. I was waking around the entire hospital, looking for you."

He presses his face against my chest, and I hold onto him a little tighter.

"Sorry, I should have told you where I was going to go before you left for your session. I was talking to Lindsey. Remember? The nurse who let me borrow her phone?"

"Oh right.", he mutters.

I turn around, and as I expected, Lindsey is giving me a knowing look. I blush a little, but don't say anything.

"Thanks for the phone again, but I think I'm going to take Frank back. I'm sure he's tired.", I say, looking to the boy next to me.

He nods, yawning.

"No problem, and since I'm your guy's new nurse, don't hesitate to ask me for anything.", she says, turning back to doing whatever she was doing before I stopped her.

I close our door gently behind me as Frank falls onto the bed.

"Why are you so tired? Did you not sleep last night?"

He shakes his head, "I had a nightmare."

"You should've woken me up."

He shakes his head again, "You were finally sleeping, I didn't want to wake you up."

I sigh, and sit down next to him on the bed, and kiss him on the cheek, wrapping my arms around his waist.

"I've been sleeping a little better than normal, if you have another nightmare, please, wake me up. It terrifies me when I find out you were alone by yourself."

He wasn't phsyically alone since I was always right next to him, ever since we got together, we've been sleeping in the same bed, but he was mentally, and that's even worse.

"Promise me?", I ask, kissing him on the cheek again.

He sighs, "Ok, I promise."

"Ok, now c'mon. Let's go to sleep."
