If Frank was being honest, this summer had been one of his best yet. With his friends and boyfriend by his side, the bet finally out of the way, and a high-school diploma to his name -- he could pretty confidently say that he had all an eighteen-year-old boy could ask for. Unfortunately, he knows that all good things can't quite ever last, though, because August was ending quick -- and he knew that Gerard was set to head off to college any day now...

Honestly, Frank really still had no idea what he was meant to do in life. Gerard seemed to have it all figured out in college, or, so Frank thought, with tales of new friends and successes. Yet, the latter was still left behind in Belleville to rot -- hesitant to dive headfirst into the unfamiliar world of adulthood, and snagged on the thought of; if Gerard could find his purpose, then why couldn't he find his? 

It was no secret, either, that distance was putting a strain between him and Gerard -- communication scarce, and the loneliness overwhelming the fragile pair.  So, when Frank's offered a job down at his aunt and uncle's diner in Newark -- he accepts, ready to finally pull himself together, and to get his damn life started. The only lingering issue is: will distance bring Frank and Gerard closer together... or will it tear them -- or, rather, Gerard -- apart for good?

Project "homophobia is gay" by NoisilyLeftCat

Highschool is a living hell. At least that's Gerard's opinion because he can't pass the hallways without being shoved against lockers or called a "fag". God, how Gerard hated this word. In his last year of school, he decides to take a risk and starts a school project in which he wants to find out why all of his teachers and classmates hate homosexual people so much. For his project "homophobia is gay" he interviews a few people but decides that this won't be enough. What if he could introduce one of them to his world and show them that it's not bad to be gay? And what if this person was Frank Iero, the guy who has a list of girls he slept with right under his mattress at home, and an abhorrence against the red-headed boy? *Warnings*: bad language, homophobia, smut, abuse

$Animals {Frerard} by jxminie_pxbo$

**HONOR AWARDS 1ST PLACE FANFICTION** Frank's life changed forever when he was 22 years old. And it will never be the same again. Two unbelievable, inexplicable events occured, driving off any normalicy in Frank's life. One good. One bad. But both of them crazy. Insane. Firstly a mysterious, morbid string of murders occured in Frank's town, just metres from his house. The victims were mutilated, slits cut along their bodies. The area fell into panic, the press labelling the serial killer as 'America's Ripper'. The second crazy thing was less of a thing, and more of a person. Gerard Way. An abnormally charming, strangly confident outcast that made it his duty to befriend Frank. But Frank has never met anyone like Gerard, and he starts to fall for him. Together, the two of them must face the menace that haunts the neighborhood, and find out if their relationship will break or hold strong. "Fire tests gold" ((Trigger warnings: Swearing, mild violence/gore))

Alone // Frerard by march_5th_

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... **CAUTION** This fic contains: Mild drug abuse Moderate Alcohol Abuse Frequent Swearing Mild talk of Self Harm Smut (further in the chapters) Moderate violence Depressive Behaviors Enjoy!!

I'm A Mess (Completed) by couldyapleaseleave

Gerard's a mess. He smokes and drinks, and he's a miserable piece of shit. He could never find a job and never had much friends. Though when Mikey called him one day, he offered Gerard a job at the All Boys Christian private school just a few blocks downtown. When he goes to work each week, a student in particular starts getting on his soft side even though their love is illegal. WARNING: there is a lot of mentions of drugs, smoking, alcohol and things of that sort in this story, along with religion and offensive comments about Christianity (and I don't hate the religion FYI) If this triggers you in some way then DO NOT read this story.

Heaven Help Us • Frerard by bubblegum_bullets

How can two people so different be so perfect? A story of romance, tragedy, healing, and finally happiness, because everyone needs a happy ending sometimes. - Gerard doesn't talk to anyone, he doesn't know anyone, he's completely absorbed in the little bubble that is his independent little life. He's homeschooled as well, which means he only ever leaves to get groceries. For how little he leaves the house, and how closed off he is, it's quite a wonder how he met Frank. Frank is an extrovert and he kind of lacks boundaries when it comes to making friends. He's curious and speaks his mind constantly, which sometimes gets him into trouble. It must be good for something though, because not many people bother to figure out Gerard. Little did either of them no how much they'd change each other's lives. #1 tag in #frerardfanfiction 6/06/2024

It's not who I am... - Frerard by MerthurIsMyOTP

Frank has a secret. No one can know about it. Once he thought he could tell his parents. They would love him unconditionally, right? Well... They didn't. They told Frank to shut his mouth and that he wasn't allowed to talk about his secret ever again. They told him that as soon as he turned eighteen, they'd throw him out of the house. So Frank kept his secret. But he hated his life like this... He slowly turned into a quiet boy without interests. A boy who wouldn't talk unless it was neccesary. But then gets new neighbours. They have two sons. Gerard and Mikey Way. They break down Frank's wall and become friends. But Frank starts to feel something for the eldest brother. When he discovers that Gerard likes him back, he has to make a decision. Should he tell Gerard... that he actually wants to be a girl?

Like I Loved You Yesterday by AspynEmmilie

When Frank graduated high school, two things were certain: he wanted to go to college to be a teacher and he was unwaveringly in love with Gerard. Gerard was 6 years younger but the pair grew up next door neighbors with a fairytale story of falling in love. The fairytale ended when Gerard decided the age gap was too much, leaving Frank and his broken bleeding heart in the dust. After finishing his teaching masters degree the spring before his 25th birthday, Frank finds himself moving home to care for his sick mother and taking a very uninspiring job as an English teacher at Belleville High School. It was a job he was certain would be boring until he learns quickly that Gerard is a senior at the same high school. Emotions flare and tensions rise as Frank realizes the feelings he thought were long and buried are still very much around. Will Frank risk it all to be with Gerard again or are his wounds too deep to heal.

Not The Average Friendship (Frerard) (I DONT OWN THIS FAN FIC ITS BY GDB123) by usedtourbuss

(I DONT OWN THIS FIC ITS BY GDB123 ON AO3!! I just wanted to make it more accessible:)!) Frank Iero is a senior in high school, and in his Advanced English class they get a student teacher. No one ever likes the student teachers, Frank included, but he always makes it a point to be nice to them. Frank is surprised when the student teacher walks in, he looks like someone he'd see walking down the hall, and he acts like a normal person- unlike all the others, who tried too hard to befriend the students, or to 'fit in'. Frank tries to make it easier on Gerard as he is clearly nervous about working in the high school, and they end up being good friends, but just how good of friends will they become? This description is awful, as is the title, but I suck with those, so I promise the book will be better! Haha

Don't Look Down by xxfallout_mcrxx

Gerard way and Frank Iero have always passed each other in the hallway but never spoke a word to one another. They are both alike in many ways. Both loners who feel like they don't quite belong. Frank mostly spends his days depressed and alone. The occasional hurtful remarks from his fellow classmates and father wearing him down. Frank's family issues seem to swallow him hole which is mainly why he feels like throwing in the towel... permanently. Gerard lives to protect those he cares about. Though, he has a bit of an edgy attitude most people learn to respect. There's more to Gerard than what the outside shows. His brother Mikey and best friend Ray know glimpses of how he really feels, and how complications from the past really fuck with his behavior. But, their differences don't keep them apart considering these strangers are forced into each other's lives when Gerard finds Frank attempting to commit suicide. Can Gerard help Frank without revealing his own problems and emotions or will they become too much to bare? *Trigger warning *Still editing mistakes( I'm fully aware my grammar sucks) *also warning this is terribly written. I wrote this when I was 13 and finished when I was like 15. Now I'm editing as much as I can to make it less embarrassing. Sequel "Never look up" both fanfics make me cringe tbh
