Gerard Way is staying at his grandmother Elena's lake house for the summer before his first year at college. His younger brother Mikey is more concerned about having no wifi for three months than anything else really. The only thing to do is to stay inside the non-air conditioned house or go out on the lake and swim. Unfortunately for Gerard, he lacks the proper skill for swimming. But when a handsome stranger scares the living shit out of him and offers swimming lessons, Gerard's summer might turn from boring and depressing to something dangerous, exciting, and he may finally learn how to swim. ***RATED MATURE FOR A REASON AND THE REASON IS EXTREMELY GAY STUFF AND SWEARING***

"Do you think God stays in heaven because he, too, lives in fear of what he's created?"-Steve Buscemi, Spy Kids 2 Hamilton wants the d(ark roast) *rereads this story* CRAWLING IN MY SKIN THESE WOUNDS, THEY WILL NOT HEAL This is a Lams coffee shop AU written from mostly John Laurens' P.O.V., but it does switch from time to time. In it, Laurens works the night shift at a coffee shop (who knows if a 24 hour coffee shop exists, but in fiction, anything is possible), that Hamilton decides to go to when after he gets struck with writer's block. Normal coffee shop AU antics ensue. To be honest, a lot of the story isn't actually in the coffee shop, but... So anyway, it's gay and no one dies...(yet) Buckle up and hold on. (Cover by yamhaylet)

(Completed) Mikey Way is every theatre kid's dream boy (that is if you like boys, of course!) Participating in every production that Belleville has held for the past five years, it's time for him to come back, starring as Romeo Montague from the famous romantic tragedy, Romeo and Juliet. It's his senior year and his time to shine with his loving girlfriend, Alicia, at his side. - Pete Wentz is a theatre kid... Who has stage fright. He prefers to work behind the scenes. When the school announces that they're performing Romeo and Juliet this year, he knows this will be the best show they've ever put on. Only problem? He's stuck on clean-up duty.

Ever since preschool, Pete and Mikey were worst enemies. It started off as kicking down block towers and scribbling over drawings to full on rivalry - throwing punches and yelling insults. Gerard was eager to change this, and made friends with Pete's friendship group. As the two groups hung out every lunch, Pete and Mikey reckoned they were living in hell. But as a school project involved the two getting more time together, their opinions may change. Brendon was never the most thoughtful person. He was not particularly liked amongst the student body, he was known for ruining relationships and spreading nasty secrets. But he never really felt empathetic to these hurt people, not until he had managed to ruin his own relationship. As Brendon realised his life isn't quite complete without Ryan, he knew he needed to get him back. And try to be less self-centred.
