Why this must be read: The one where Frank and Gerard watch a lot of movies and have a lot of orgasms. It's an absolutely brilliant story! It's less than a year old but I've already re-read it several times.

It's funny and sweet and warm and dorky and full of love and scorchingly hot sex. I love the way they're both written - Frank's feelings for Gerard and how hard he works to make their day off something that will make Gerard happy, Gerard and his unashamed nerdiness and the dicotomy of the way he behaves onstage and in private - and the way they are together - the banter and silliness and constant underlaying love and the ever-present simmer of sexuality.

Excerpt from the story:

Frank laughs a little and slides his fingers out of Gerard's mouth. He smears saliva across Gerard's face, makes him look even more debauched than he already does with his face all flushed, damp hair clinging to his forehead. Gerard gives him that same little smile and presses his face into Frank's shoulder for a second before rocking back on his heels and standing up slowly. He reaches down to help Frank up.

"God, I needed that." Gerard's voice is raw and wrecked. "Haven't blown you since, um -" He looks at the ceiling, running his thumb across his bottom lip and then sticking it in his mouth to gnaw on the nail.

Frank pulls Gerard's hand out of his mouth. "It was on the plane back from Copenhagen, remember?"

"Oh, shit, right." Gerard giggles. "Fucking airplane bathroom gymnastics." He starts to bite the thumbnail of his other hand and then proceeds to talk around the finger. "You came so hard I couldn't swallow it all." The corner of his mouth quirks up in a soft smile. "It was messy."

"I remember." Frank grins, easy and open, and they both do up their pants. Frank tugs his shirt down and does the same to Gerard's. He leans in close and says, "Hey, so. I want to take you on a date."

Gerard looks startled. "Aren't you supposed to do that shit before you start fucking?" He sounds pleased, though.

"That's the point. I want to take you somewhere awesome, just us. You need a break. Fuck, we all do." And that was maybe the wrong thing to say, because Gerard's face falls and he looks off to the other side of the stage. Frank curses under his breath and mumbles, "Shit, sorry."

"No, it's cool," Gerard says, slipping his hand into his hair and pulling a little. "I just miss him, you know?"

"Yeah," Frank sighs. "I know. Me too."

"But like," Gerard stops for a second and drops his hand. "I've never played shows without him before. It's fucking weird. And -"

Gerard trails off, and Frank says, "Of course, dude. He's your brother. It fucking sucks, and I get that, and we have a day off tomorrow, thank fuck." He softens his voice. "And I'm going to take you somewhere awesome."

Gerard smiles and then his eyes go a little wicked and he says, "We could just stay in the hotel room all day." His cheeks flush again, and Frank's heart actually seems to skip a beat. Gerard was choking on his dick not five minutes ago and now he's blushing like a fucking schoolgirl. Fuck, he's so gone for this dude.

Frank slides his hand down Gerard's back and grabs his ass, pulling Gerard close. "God, you feel fucking good," he whispers, and his voice goes all low like it's a come-on. "That's a solid fucking backup plan."
