Cancer (A My Chemical Romance oneshot) Some Frerard included.

'Frank!' a shrill gasp made its way from the bedroom which Frank and Gerard had both shared.. 

Frank rushed in before Gerard had finished. 

'Frank..' he said again, reaching a pale hand out. 

Frank silently took his lover's hand, tears gathering in his eyes. 

'Baby I need you to talk to me, I need you to keep me here for longer. It isn't my time but.. but the end is nigh.' Gerard looked up into Frank's hazel eyes. He saw the pain in his face.  

'No!' Frank desperately tried to hold on to Gerard's consciousness. 'Please Gee.. don't leave me.. I need you, I have no one else.. please..' 

'Oh Frankie, don't be sad. This was all meant to happen. You will live without me, but I will still always be with you. In here.' Gerard raised his weak hand to brush Frank's chest. 

Tears began to fall from Frank's eyes as he clutched Gee's hand to his thumping heart. 

'I can hear the drums.' his eyes clouded over. 

'What drums?' Frank asked, confused. The only sound he could hear was the loud beating of his own heart. 

'The drums in the parade!' He replied, looking sure. 

'What are you talking about, Gee?' Frank was getting increasingly worried as he studied Gerard's face. His face was thin, his features bony and his eyes were distant. He didn't have much hair left, just a little. Small tufts of white hair grew from his scalp. This wasn't the man Frank had fallen in love with all those years ago.. 

Gerard continued with his explination, interrupting Frank's thoughts. 

'When I was a young boy, my father took me into the city, to see a marching band. It is coming for me. The end is nigh.' Gerard's eyes filled up with tears. 

'No, Gee. Please stay..' was all Frank could manage. 

'But the drums.. they are getting louder.. The Black Parade is coming.' Gerard was scared. It was obvious. 

'Shhh..' Frank hushed. He HAD to distract him. 

'Gee, do you remember our first kiss?' Frank asked tenderly. 

Gerard smiled. Yes, he remembered it like it was yesterday. Him and Frank were taking a walk in the park, that was the only place they could escape from everyone. They had been eachother's only friend since longer that they both could remember. They were talking about the usual, video games and comics and stuff, and Frank couldn't take it anymore. He stopped mid word, and kissed Gerard. The whole world stopped at that point. It was the best day of Gerard's life. 

'I remember every memory I have with you, Frankie and I will never forget.' He told him, a tear escaping his eye. 

'Frankie.. I'm afraid my time has nearly come.. the drums.. they are so close..' 

'No!' Frank choked out. 'I can't lose you! I've already lost too much!' 

'Frankie.. you aren't losing me for you will be with me soon.' Gerard whispered. 

More and more tears escaped Frank's eyes as he watched the man he loved suffer. Gerard had never told Frank he loved him, and it pained him every day. 

'Baby, please understand. I will not kiss you, cause the hardest part of this is leaving you.' Gerard said in a hushed voice. 

'I.. I need you..' Frank cried. 

'The drums are deafening! My time is now!' Gerard's eyes were misted. 

'NO!' Screamed Frank. 'Please not now! PLEASE!' 

Gerard cluched Frank's hand as he choked out his final words. 

'I'm asking you to be true.. cause the hardest part of this is. losing you..' 

Frank watched in agony as his lover's eyes rolled sleepily. 

'Frank Iero..' Came his shrill breath. 'I love you..' And with that, he lay still forevermore.
