Addiction ( a frerard fanfiction )

Chapter 1

Frank awoke with a start ; He just had a nightmare, again.

He took a deep breath, rubbed his face with his hands and got out of his bed, heading to the bathroom

Once inside, he shut the door, turned around and faced his reflection in the mirror

well buddy, you look like shit

He told himself

His skin was even paler than usual and the dark circles under his eyes were getting even worse. His hair were messy as fuck, not the cute kind of messy though, more like the bad hangover kind.

Indeed, Frank had been drinking again last night, to forget about the world for a night

He splashed some cold water on his face, then went downstairs, in the kitchen, looking for headache pills, because his head was pretty much hurting like hell

Today, Frank decided to skip school, he didn't feel like dealing with the  drama and insults, nope, not today, he just needed a day off

His mother was already gone to work at this time of the day, so it wasn't a problem for Frank to convince her to let him stay home, to be honest, Frank barely saw her, she was working all the time and she was almost never coming home at night ; she preferred to spend her free time with unknown guys, but Frank didn't really care, she was a grown woman after all and she could live her life how she wanted to

When Frank finished to drink his coffee, he went outside, still in his pyjamas and sat on his cold stone steps, he lit a cigarette and started to smoke, watching the wind blow through the trees

A few minutes later, a truck parked in front of the house next to Frank's. This house was for sale for a few months now. Frank assumed that the truck was a moving van, apparently, the house had finally been selled

Frank sighed, he only hoped his new neighbors wouldn't be some old people who would call the cops if there was too much noise for their own liking and hate teenagers, especially Frank's kind

Hopefully for him, it wasn't old people.

A woman got out of the truck, she was probably about 40 years old, maybe a bit more. She seemed... nice, she kinda had this vibrant and good aura surrending her. She had short blond hair and wore a long orange coat. When she saw Frank, she smiled at him, it was weird, since people around here didn't usually smiled at him, plus Frank didn't know this woman. He thought it was pretty strange and he wasn't in the best mood, so he didn't smile back, he just kept smoking, in silence. He didn't really care if the woman would think that he was being rude, it was the least of his problems

A few seconds later, a young boy got out of the truck, he seemed pretty tall, taller than Frank, (well, pretty much everybody was taller than Frank.) His hair were some kind of dark blond, or maybe light brown, Frank couldn't tell for sure. He wore glasses and was pretty thin, he looked younger than Frank who was himself 17, but it didn't really matter since he wasn't planning to become his friend, Frank wasn't the best-friend-forever kind of guy. Quite on the opposite, he would rather be alone, even if he had to admit that sometimes, be alone sucked. He was pretty bored on his own. Nothing exciting never happened to him, and sometimes, he wished he could switch his life with someone else. Life wasn't as in movies, it wasn't full of adventures, twists and turns. Frank's everyday life was simply waking up, take a shower, have breakfast, go to school, come back from school, eat, smoke, jerk off and sleep.

Sometimes, Frank was feeling really lonely
And sometimes, just sometimes, he wish he had a friend.
