Frank's POV

It's been five years since I'd seen him. Since that night where I fucked everything up. I never saw him again. My criminal. Gerard Way. God I'm messed up, claiming a serial killer as my own but he was adorable, he had a chance, he could be a proper person again, all everyone saw was the horror. I saw the broken man beneath it. A broken man that could be fixed by one thing. Love.

"Stop fucking around Iero, go get out there." A familiar voice broke me from my daydream. The boss. I sighed and walked out to my cop car. That's me. Frank Iero, special forces cop. Me and my partner Ray Toro. Fighting crime and bringing in mentally Ill criminals. You can guess why I took this job. It's pathetic isn't it? Taking a job in hope of seeing one man again. I sighed and climbed into the drivers seat as Toro got in beside me. We weren't exactly close Toro and I, we were just work friends. I looked at him and nodded, he nodded back and I drove off into the New Jersey night.

Gerard's POV

Five years. It had taken five minutes for me to come back. I looked at my reflection in a puddle and laughed. I was back to being the same. My hair had grown back and hung in dark strands around my face. I was pale as fuck with dark circles round my eyes and my beloved suit clad my body once again. I sighed in content at the nostalgia. I loved being back. My list in my head I set off. I had already found my victims and I was excited to start again tonight. Putting the fear back in New Jersey once again.

Frank's POV

We had our first call from a citizen who had spotted a man dragging a woman into an alley. We stopped at the address and I quickly reached for my gun and ran out. Sure enough two figures were in the alley "POLICE." I yelled "FREEZE." The male figure looked up surprised and his eyes flashed, he held the body of the woman in his hands, she was obviously dead but it was him who made my breath catch in my throat and my stomach turn. It was Gerard. He was back.

Gerard's POV

I look up with a smirk on my face "officer Iero, now that really is a surprise. I say, Frank's gun wavered and I sighed " just put the dumb thing away Frank." He did as I said, as he always had. He stared at me with wide eyes. I sighed, knowing this moment would come. " I understand that you'll have questions. And yes I did disappear after that night because you kissed me." I heard him sharply inhale but I continued " You made me feel something I hadn't felt in a long time, I didn't know how to take it. So I left New Jersey. I went to seek help." Frank's eyes went wider "For you." I said " I thought maybe I'd have a chance with you." I laughed at how pathetic it sounded out loud "Don't worry sugar." I growled "It didn't work." I dropped the body "So officer I'll give you the warning I give every newbie. Don't get in my way and don't break the law, or I'll get you." And with that I disappeared into the shadows, leaving Frank looking confused in the alley.
