// Frank's daily letters to Gerard. \\

Frank is the new kid at school. He has moved with his mother in an attempt to escape his past, and his father. Gerard is the kid no one talks to. But he likes it that way. He likes being alone, prefers it. When Gerard finds Frank in a less the ideal situation, will all the change? TRIGGER WARNING: self harm, substance abuse, abuse, rape, depression, eating disorder

Frank is a newcomer in a quiet, sleepy town, trying to escape his past. It's dull and boring until the arrival of a newcomer that could be the making or breaking of him. Gerard has demons of his own and is shipped off to his Uncle's place in the ass end of nowhere to sort himself out. He can't imagine anything worse until he stumbles upon a punk kid who seems to have secrets of his own. Frank is determined to keep himself to himself, but Gerard is an annoying, nosy, pain in the ass, who, for some reason, Frank can't seem to get enough of. Will he eventually let Gerard into his life, and will it be all plain sailing for the two if he does? Mature Content - Target Audience 18+ --------------- "I can't put anyone I care about at risk like that again Gee" Frank said as he stared intently at Gerard in the hope of conveying that he cared about him. "I want to get close, but I'm scared of endangering you." He rested his head on Gerard's shoulder, and the two just looked out to the ocean, allowing it to calm them with its gentle lapping. "I'm prepared to take that risk Frank" Gerard said quietly. "I'd risk it for you."

Following a bruising break up, Gerard and Frank are thrust back into each other's lives, finding themselves reminiscing about their past, raking up all the hurt and pain caused along with some of their happier times. Mature Content - Target Audience 18+ ---------------------------- "You know" he began with an aggressive tone, "this is the bench I sat at the night I left." From the corner of his eye, he saw Gerard's head snap around. He internally felt smug, knowing he'd caught him off guard. "The night I came home and found you balls-deep in Shaun that is" he narrowed his eyes as he faced Gerard. "Just to clarify." Gerard's face fell. "Frank. Don't!" "Oh I'm sorry. Did I hurt your feelings?" Frank smirked at the fact that yes, indeed, he had hurt Gerard's feelings. But he was more than happy about that. Happy to hurt him in anyway possible. After all, nothing could be as painful as what he'd felt that night. The night his whole world was ripped apart....................

Frank can't handle talking to people without being struck with a panic attack. The only people he can talk to are his best friend, Mikey Way, and his mom. Ever since Frank was young, he's had a crush on Mikey's brother, Gerard, but his anxiety has kept him from ever doing anything about it. It seems, though, that he won't have to, because after ignoring him for two years, Gerard is suddenly taking a deeper interest in Frank.... ***NOT MINE. ALL CREDITS GO TO (@OWLHOOOTS ON MIBBA)***

Frank Iero finds himself with a year-long prison sentence, gaining the unwanted attention of two of its most notorious inmates. They both 'want a piece of him', but does he feel anything for either of them? How will he deal with these two very different characters, and will he cope with his time spent behind bars? Will there be anything good to come from his time spent in this hell hole?

He'll come on all tough and make sure everyone sees that he's still top dog" Officer Bryar explained. "And Gerard? Well, he's in a different league to Bert. You'll know Gerard as soon as you see him. Don't be fooled by the soft voice and pretty face though, kid. He's super smart, and he has a way of talking people into anything. Just keep your wits about you, ok?"

*** REUPLOAD FROM AO3 *** Mikey Way grew up heavily involved in the church. Hymnals, scriptures, and bible verses were like second languages to him. He'd been attending a heavily Christian boarding school in a Chicago suburb for as long as he could remember, and religion was one of the only consistencies in his life. The church had always been his home, even if he had to subconsciously repress major parts of himself to stay holy. Pete Wentz grew up in a religious household, attending church every week and always dreading it more than cattle dreads being turned into meat. By the time he hit puberty, he knew that he liked boys and that the religion he was forced into was not for him. Now, Pete and Mikey are both seventeen. After an excessive, tumultuous argument between Pete and his parents about his sexuality, they decide to send him off to a Christian boarding school, hoping he'd be cured of his so-called sin. Pete is convinced that he's gonna hate it there. That all changes when he arrives and meets the cute (and very, very religious) dirty blonde haired boy with whiskey brown eyes that's now his roommate.

Gerard Way is the new guy in town, quiet, artistic, and carrying more baggage than he lets on. Frank Iero is the school's resident fuckboy-charming, reckless, and hiding behind a well-crafted façade. They aren't supposed to fit together, but somehow, they do. As their lives become entangled, Gerard starts to unravel the boy beneath Frank's mask, and Frank finds himself drawn to the raw, messy truth of Gerard's world. Love shouldn't feel like an addiction, like a vice tightening around their throats, like something that could destroy them both. But it does. And neither of them is willing to let go.
