Frank's POV

Shit. I was sososo late! I sprinted down the corridor outside the language classrooms, gripping my bag tightly as I rounded the next corner, nearly tripping as I did so. I steadied myself before sprinting the rest of the way. I paused momentarily outside of the door, going over different excuses that might work, but none came to mind, so I dragged my feet into homeroom and certain death. Well... Not really but I just like to be dramatic sometimes.

My presence wasn't acknowledged, so I began walking to the back of the room, and I automatically scanned the back row for Oli. Found instantly, a smile instantly found me as I came up to our desk and took a seat. We greeted each other 'normally' for inside school, we weren't telling anyone yet. We were going to first see if this relationship actually worked out before we went public. We were both more comfortable this way, the pressure was off.

"Hey Frankie, look to your right...new kid" Oli jerked his head right and looked up at the new boy; he was looking away from us so we could only see the back of his head.

He had definitely over styled his hair, obviously a boy obsessed, a pretty boy if you will, and you know I'm right if you can say all this from looking at the back of someone's head. He held himself a certain way, very relaxed but edgy somehow, like he was exited, I had no idea what about. It was only when he turned around that I realized why he was exited. The smirk that played across his face was all too familiar, he turned to face me, his hands slackened their grip on the desk and rested on his lap. He hadn't changed much, he was exactly the same as in his photograph; 'the camera never lies' suddenly popped into my head.

"Did you miss me Frank?" his words accompanied by a small chuckle, his eyes blazed with amusement and insanity. I couldn't believe they had let him out, I didn't think he would ever be let out, but here he was.

"What...Frank do you know this kid?" Oli seemed very confused and my dumb posture probably wasn't helping, I was gawping, definitely unattractive and I had to say something intelligent to make up for it.

"Um...you...Matt!" Yes, very intelligent Frank, that was really what we were aiming for.

His smile raised even more and his voice deepened;

"So, you do remember me, I was beginning to think you had forgotten" he raised his arms; "How about a hug coz?"

I froze, literally, even my mouth didn't waver as I allowed him to embrace me, I was expecting a small awkward hug, but what I got certainly wasn't that. He was comfortable and warm, odd that, but why had I assumed otherwise. Well, maybe he wasn't dangerous anymore? I allowed myself to think that as I loosened up and returned the hug.

"Good to see you dude" I sat down and introduced him to Oli, it was about five minutes before the first bell rang and we had to get to class.

Matt had an identical timetable to myself and Oli, this wasn't a shock to find out seeing as half our year has this timetable, they weren't very creative down at the office, obviously. We headed off to double chem., first thing on a Monday morning, how horrible does that sound?

Gerard's POV

I was watching tem, all of them but especially Frank. I think he knew the new kid, I mean you don't just hug random new kids, you would probably be considered a pretty freaky person if you did that. It's good to see that Oli has still, as far as I can tell, said nothing. It's Valentine's day tomorrow and I'm gonna win Frank over. I wonder if that's what Oli is waiting for? The bell rang and I headed off for double chemistry, not knowing that soon, everything was going to go wrong for me. Or right?

Short, I know, but I have a lot on at the moment. I have planned out everything and now all I need to do is write it.

Thank you for reading!
