Falling In Love Will Kill You- Gerard Way/Frank Iero

Falling in Love Will Kill You

A/N: Hey guys, I hope you enjoy my random little oneshot! I was listening to this song and I really love it. If you haven’t already heard it, it’s on the side.

Let me know if you want me to do a sequel to this from Frank’s perspective! I think it would be fun~

I edited this a little bit. This isn't a Frerard- Gee and Frank are just friends, best friends, but Gee hasn't seen him in a while. It's titled Falling in Love Will Kill You because it reminds him of Frank for some reason. But neither of them are gay for each other. Thanks~

OoooOoooO

Covered in sweat, wearing a suit, faced by thousands of lit-up people smiling up at me, and my clean hands gripping the microphone tightly in front of me. I hear screaming, nothing but screaming from a lot of the people who have supported me even in my early years. I missed this so much, standing in front of a crowd, doing what I loved to do most- change people’s lives with my voice. It’s what I was meant to do, I think.

The cheering dies down for a second as Maya the Psychic comes to a close. I lean away from the stand, catching my breath. The lights emitted from the stage into the fans makes me feel lightheaded, but it’s a good feeling. I’m so glad I did this today.

“Gerard? What are we doing next? Is Maya the last song on set?” A voice says in my ear- it’s the drummer behind me, speaking over the dead mic.

I can’t focus for a split second- everything, the show, the crew watching from the wings, overwhelms me. There’s a man in the very front of the crowd, almost within arm’s reach, who looks like a guitarist that I used to know, a long time ago… Before I know what I’m doing, I reply. “No. We’re doing Falling in Love Will Kill You.”

“What?”

Oh, that’s right. Wrong band.

“Sorry. Um, I guess we’re all done. I just want to sing this last song as a close.”

“Alright.”

I can hear the band behind me waiting patiently onstage. They all have little microphones in their ears, so they heard me say all that. The dead mic is a good thing to have onstage. Reminds me of the old days…

Stepping back towards the microphone, I speak into it. “Hey guys, how’ve you been doing tonight?” Cheering, of course. “This has been an amazing night, thank you all for coming. You have all been very supportive of me and I can’t help but love you guys for that.” I smile at the fans. “I want to do one more song, you may have heard it before. A while ago I collaborated with Wrongchilde and accompanied them on a song called Falling in Love Will Kill You. This…” I let out a sigh. “This is for you.”

And, as the lights dim, I release a harmony into the air.

I’m okay but I went to see the doctor yesterday
To tell him how my heart it’s going crazy
It feels like I got hit by a train
What is happening
He said listen you fool, you’re falling in love again

Falling in love, falling in love
Falling in love will kill you

Falling in love, falling in love
Falling in love will kill you

I’m okay but I had to see the shrink again today
To tell her how my head it’s going crazy
But things get all mixed up inside my brain
So what is happening

And she said shut up you fool, you’re falling in love again

Falling in love, falling in love
Falling in love will kill you
