Frank Iero was nothing special. He stuck out among his classmates, but that was only because he dressed like he was in a local 2007 rock band. He never brought any attention to himself, although he wasn't really that lonely; he had a couple of friends and a girlfriend. His family life wasn't anything interesting, either. All in all, he was an average guy.
Gerard Way was a lonely, sexually confused emo who relied on his younger brother, Mikey Way, a little too much. People would usually disregard him straight away because, well, he didn't give them a reason not to. He would never cooperate during conversations, that's if he actually managed to have one without completely ignoring everyone around him.
When Mikey realised just how depressing his brother's social life was, he did everything in his power to find someone to tolerate Gerard. Who would be better than his own best friend, Frank Iero?
Trigger Warnings: abuse, self-harm, depression, suicide attempts, cutting, bullying, slurs, anxiety/panic attacks. I'll put warnings at the start of chapters as well. Stay safe.
Parents that act like their part of the fucking WBC... A flaming homosexual son... This is going to work out great.
(The story will be better than the intro, I swear!!)
Gerard's parents are religious, they value their beliefs above their sons. But Gerard doesn't believe in such things. Gerard was different than all the other people his age. He always had been. No one seemed to understand his strange ways, except for his brother, Mikey. Mikey was the only person Gerard gave a shit about, in fact, he truly loved his brother. Without his brother, Gerard would be alone. Oh yeah, did I mention Gerard was gay?
When Gerard's parents found out, days later, there was one less member in the Way household. The night he was disowned, started as any ordinary day, and ended in silence. Gerard was kicked out of the home, with nothing but the clothes he was wearing, and whatever was in his pockets. As he stepped out the door, he took one final look at his brother. Mikey's facial expression was somewhat emotionless, but his eyes flooded with tears. That final fucking glance, it would haunt them forever...
Gerard was homeless for weeks, until a short boy his age, caught him by surprise...
