Toxic- frerard

Epilogue

5 years later

Frank Iero's dream of a pretty house in a suburban area had came true less than a week after he signed his company to Pete Wentz.

Although his vision consisted of cute children to fill the house, a small puppy named sweet pea completed his new lifestyle even more perfectly. Gerard had rescued the abandoned ball of fur a couple months ago and Frank just couldn't refuse her little face. She was found all alone, terrified and hungry, discarded in a trash can.

Sweet pea settled in almost immediately, Frank being a natural dog father. He'd take her to the park almost everyday with Gerard and made sure that she was spoilt rotten. She was the child that he once longed for.

Their new life was chilled to say the least. Neither of the men worked because they didn't have to. It turns out that Pete was quite the leader. He'd transformed Franks million dollar business into billions and now lived a lavish life with his official boyfriend Mikey Way.

Gerard and Frank decided not to move too far away. They were only a two hour drive from their old home that was now occupied by their friends. Gerard couldn't bare to be away from Mikey for too long, and Frank would be lying if he said he wouldn't miss Pete too.

Another reason for their stay was Andy's grave. On the sixth day of every month, Frank would visit him. He'd tell him about how his new life was and how the company was still in amazing hands. He'd tell Andy that he'd love sweet pea because she has a heart of gold.

Frank Iero never celebrated Christmas due to his family being too far away and Gerard not being in contact with the majority of his. However, this year Pete and Mikey were coming to their home and Frank was preparing dinner for them all.

"What do vegetarians even eat at Christmas?" Frank thought out loud. He wore the stereotypical apron that would usually adorn a house wife's figure.

"Can't you make a quorn turkey?" Gerard chimed, wrapping his arms around Franks waist and resting his chin on his boyfriends shoulder.

"You do know quorn is just fungus, right?" Frank laughed and Gerard just shook his head.

"You know, life would just be so much easier if you'd just sink your teeth into a good old piece of turkey." Gerard retaliated. He was only joking of course, he respected Franks lifestyle choices. He'd even attempted to conform to them at one point, cutting meat out of his diet completely. He lasted less than a day but it's the thought that counts, right?

"I love animals too much." Frank replied as sweet pea toddled into the room. "Especially you. Isn't that right baby?" The tattooed man spoke in a baby voice, picking up the puppy and snuggling her between him and Gerard.

"I love you too much." Gerard smiled, kissing his boyfriend on the cheek before pecking sweet peas head.

"Enough to dance for me later?" Frank laughed, causing Gerard to roll his eyes and smack his arm.

"Mikey!" Gerard beamed as his brother entered the house. He enveloped the skinny boy in a hug, nearly breaking his bones in the process.

"Hey, Gee." Mikey choked out, feeling his lungs crush beneath him.

"I've missed you so much!" Gerard practically sang, burying his red hair into Mikeys chest.

"You saw me like 3 weeks ago." Mikey laughed, hugging his brother back.

"3 weeks too long." Gerard giggled, pulling him into the house and towards the table.

Frank greeted Pete at the door, pulling him into one of them 'bro hugs'. "You nervous?" Pete asked, smiling widely. Frank just nodded as a response before leading his friend into the living room.
