Individuality is extremely frowned upon in a world that coexists with the mystic and mysterious. Humanity has shunned all of myth, forbidding anyone or anything from crossing over. Even more wierd, no one seems to question why. But when our main character learns a dark secret about her family, things will change.

A story of love and family after tragedy.

Okay so this is my first sort of mcr fan fic. I'm warning you that there are topics in this story that aren't suitable for all ages. Read at your own risk! Remember this is FICTIONAL!

Gerard is a single parent now, finally matching paces with his best friend, Frank, who is also a single parent. Lindsey and Gerard aren't worse off than Jamia and Frank, and maybe Gerard's thankful for that. He's also thankful for Frank, who's always there for him. *I don't own anything except the plot and my own made up characters* Yayuh [some trigger warnings]

“I’m… I-I I’m sorry…” that’s the only thing I manage to choke out. Nobody ever caught me self harming. “You’re always so fucking sorry Gee. Save it, it doesn’t change anything.” He says and his hand wraps around my arm again. “Can I? Please?” he asks, puppy eying me again. This time, I don’t resist. I let him pull my sleeve up, and see all of the burns. He frowns and looks me in the eyes again. “What am I going to do with you…” he shakes his head and pulls me into a hug. That’s good, I can admit I actually needed it. I rest my head on his shoulder and close my eyes.
