Sorry if there was a lot of update notifications for the last chapter. I updated it once but I guess it glitched

"Do you wanna come over to my house go watch a movie tomorrow?" I asked Frank as I sat down in class.

"I broke up with you," he stated.

"Baby, I know you're scared about hurting me but you won't," I said. "And besides, you've got the blue flames so you can fix me."

"But I can still hurt you," Frank said. "It's best for everyone if you just stay away from me."

"Not for me or for you," I said. "I can barely go a day without seeing you, I would miss you too much. Can we please go and talk about this?"

Frank's fingers began twitching more and he quickly took his bag and left. I followed him to the bathroom, locking the door behind us. I could see the little blue lightning bolts dancing up his neck and arms.

"Are you okay?" I asked, taking a step closer.

"D-don't touch me," He said. "I-I just need a moment."

Frank curled up in the corner and took a few deep breaths while I watched.

"Do you need something?" I asked as the bell rang.

Frank sniffled, leaning his head back against the wall. He just closed his eyes and the bolts slowly began to die down.

"I'm sorry for working you up," I said.

"It's not your fault," he said. "It's my fucking curse."

I sat next to him, holding his hand.

"I don't want to break up with you," I whispered.

Frank looked up at me, his eyes watering.

"I'm gonna hurt you," he mumbled.

"You won't," I denied.

I gave him a soft kiss and he whimpered, kissing back desperately. I tangled my hand into his hair before pulling away, resting my forehead against his.

"I need you," he whispered. "You keep me sane. My curse doesn't seem so bad when I'm around you. But I don't want to hurt you."

"You won't—"

"You can't say that," he interrupted. "I already have. I hurt everyone I touch."

I just kissed him again and he sniffled.

"C-can we go home?" He asked.

I nodded and stood up, holding out my hand. He looked at it a little nervously before taking it and we snuck out of school together. We went to his house up to his room and I smiled, curling up to his side on the bed.

"Hey, I thought I heard you come in, Junior," Ms Iero said when she walked in.

"I'm sorry, there were just too many bolts," he said.

"That's alright, better safe than sorry," she said. "Do you guys want something to eat?"

"Not now, thank you," Frank said.

She smiled and walked out of the room, shutting the door behind her.

"What does your mom do for a living?" I asked. "How does she afford all these houses?"

"Well, my dad is pretty shit but he's also a lawyer so he makes pretty good money and he still pays child support," he said. "And on top of that she does work online, I don't know what exactly but she does."

"Why did your dad leave?" I asked. "Y-you don't have to answer but I found some of the trial videos and he seemed nice."

"He decided that he didn't want to deal with a child that has a curse and that it was too much for him," he said. "But I don't think that he ever thought about how I might feel about having this curse."

"When was the last time you talked to him?" I asked.

"I don't know, I was, like, five or something," he said. "But he pays a lot for our houses and bills. He manages to get prices of houses down really low too, maybe it's some lawyer shit that I just don't really understand."

I looked at him before leaning up to give him a soft kiss.

"Please don't leave me again," I whispered.

"You don't need me," he denied. "I'm not that important, I only make the world worse."

"No, don't say that about yourself," I said. "You don't make the world worse. Everytime I see you I get so nervous and I just think about how gifted and amazing you are and how nice and sweet and innocent you are. And you're so kind, you would do anything to help other people, even if that means exposing yourself. You helped me when you saved my life, I would've died if it weren't for you."

Frank sniffled and looked at me. His eyes had a certain glow to it almost but it faded away quickly, leaving me to just believe it was my imagination. 

"Frankie, you're one of the sweetest people that I know and I really like you," I said.

I pressed my lips against his and he whimpered as he pulled me closer. I pulled at his shirt and tossed it aside. Soon our clothes were discarded and he laid on top of me between my legs but the sparks were building up more and more.

"Ow," I muttered as he shocked my hip.

"S-sorry," he muttered.

"It's okay," I said.

Frank shocked me again and I bit my lip but ignored it. But then he shocked me again and I pulled away.

"Frankie, just relax," I said.

Frank shook his head, quickly putting his clothes back on.

"I'm sorry," he said. "I told you i can't have sex."

"You just have to get out of your head," I said as I pulled on my boxers. "It's adorable that you worry so much but you have to just take a few deep breaths, okay?"

Frank nodded and sighed, putting his gloves on.

"Do you really need those?" I asked sadly.

"Just in case," he said.

I walked over and gave him a soft kiss, feeling the light little shock that made me giggle. I put on my clothes and sighed, holding his hand.

"It's okay, Baby, we don't have to do anything," I said.

Frank smiled softly and gave me a hug, burying his face into the crook of my neck. He took a deep breath and I smiled, hugging him back tight. He seemed to really enjoy the hug and it reminded me of the skin to skin contact that he missed. He rarely ever hugs his mom, let alone anyone else. Imagine going most of your life without being able to touch another human being.

It took me a moment to realize he was crying and I shushed him softly, gently rubbing his back to try and calm him down. It was quiet, light crying and he wiped his eyes when I pulled away.

"Sorry," he mumbled.

"It's okay, you're adorable," I said, giving him a kiss.

"I'm hungry," he said. "Let's go get something."

I followed him down and he dug through the cabinets but they were mostly empty.

"We keep it as empty as possible in case we have to get up and move again," he explained. "But we have some things to make sandwiches."

Ms. Iero walked out and smiled softly.

"Why don't you go out for lunch," she suggested.

"Alright, let's go," Frank said.

"No, you two go alone," she said.

"I-I can go out without you?" Frank asked in shock.

"For an hour and then I want you back home," she said. "And if you start showing any bolts then come home."

"Awesome!" Frank exclaimed, hurrying out excitedly.

"Watch out for him," she said, handing me some money. "He's excited and you know how he gets when he's excited."

I nodded, going out to where Frank was sitting in the passenger seat of my car excitedly. I drove us to a nearby cafe and we ordered our food before sitting at a table.

"You don't go out much," I guessed.

"Not without my mom, and even with my mom is rare," he said. "The only place I get to go alone is school. I've never been out without her before. She's scared my curse might to haywire and someone's gonna find out about it and we're gonna have to move again. I feel bad, because of me she has no life. She can't date people and she doesn't have friends. She's had to leave her family behind."

"But she's your mom and she loves you, she would do anything for you," I said. "And I bet she doesn't even care as long as that means protecting you."

Frank nodded and ate his salad quietly.

"Your mom hasn't dated anyone?" I asked

"She doesn't want anyone near me that could potentially harm me," he said. "But I'm hoping that we'll get to stay for a little while, maybe she'll meet someone that makes her happy like you do for me."

I smiled, reaching across the table to hold his hand.

"You make me happy too," I said.

"I've been having less mood swings and stuff," he said. "I think you just keep me calm."

I smiled, finishing up my food.

"We have about twenty minutes, let's go for a little walk in the park," I suggested and Frank nodded excitedly.

We went to a nearby park and walked through the little trail in the trees. Frank kept stopping and gasping excitedly whenever he saw a flower or a bird or a squirrel.

"Oh my god, is that's bunny? It's so cute!" He cooed. "I wanna give it a hug!"

I smiled as Frank tried to chase after the bunny but it hopped away. I held his hand, pulling him into the trees with a giggle as we saw some other hikers.

"I feel like a real teenager," Frank said, a huge grin on his face.

I smiled, leaning back against the tree and pulled him against me. I kissed him roughly and he moaned, holding my hips. My hands tangled into his hair and there were thankfully no sparks as his hips pressed against mine. He whimpered, rutting his hips forward desperately.

"Wait, Wait," I breathed. "We don't have time for anything."

I wish we did, he seemed to be finally out of his head and in the moment rather than being scared.

"Oh," he mumbled, taking a step back.

"But maybe we can go home and do something," I said.

We went home and to his room and we tried again to get back into the mojo but Frank was in his head again and nervous, shocking me too much. Instead we just cuddled and I held him in my arms, listening to his happy humming.
