(Formerly titled "I Mean It, I'm Okay!") Gerard isn't crazy. He doesn't belong in the "Happy Minds Resort", a black-and-white uniform mental asylum, all the way in California. Yet his family insists on sending him there, for seemingly no reason. When everyone at the resort acts like zombies, he wonders just how much he should trust the asylum's methods. Can he save these formerly-sane people from the evil asylum, especially when he's questioning his own sanity?

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!!)

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.

Enchanted - Frerard
Frank is your average punk high schooler who gets himself into a stupid dare in order to fit in and get his bullies off his back, but the shit he got himself into turned out to be a life-changing experience. Read on to see what happens cause I'm obviously shit at descriptions. Warnings: serious case of cringe-attacks at some parts (sorry), smut, strong language, and mild suicidal thoughts around chapter two (nothing too serious, I like to keep my fics happy cause I'm already traumatized enough with gay fics and real life), also a bit of cross-dressing. P.s: Gerard is a supernatural being in this one cause I apparently hate humans and cannot write a fucking normal fic. All the love, HR. xxComplete
18th Floor Balcony (Frerard)

Getting sick of working many dead-end and crummy jobs at nursing homes, he takes up in-home care, where he meets Gerard, an old friend from high school. Diagnosed with a terrible illness that is soon to claim his life, Gerard has a very negative outlook on life, feeling both worthless and beyond help. But, will any of that change when his old high school friend, and now caregiver, comes back into his life? (Kudos to momiji_neyuki for collaborating with me on this fic!)Complete
Silent. (Frerard) ✔️
Gerard Way is twenty five, and can't hold down a job due to his voice. Rather, his lack of one. When he's offered a job at a record company, he gladly takes it, and serves as assistant to CEO Frank Iero. He never knew how close he would get to him; even with all the obstacles in the way. (A note: Bert is highly involved in this fic, but he is *not* a villain. Please don't treat him as such)Complete![Looming Willow [Frerard]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/132286152-256-k722217.jpg)
Looming Willow [Frerard]
I like to think I have improved on writing since this time and I really don't like this. So many regrets... [Complete] Frank Iero has been suffering from the 'incident' ever since it happened. What made it worse was that it was completely his fault. His mother notices his behaviour afterwards and sends him to a therpy group. He knows he can't be 'cured' because there was nothing to 'cure'. This was him, left with the faded memories of the 'incident'. Gerard Way had to move schools because of bullying. Of course, it wasn't exactly bullying if quart labled it as abuse. His arms are adorned in long sleeves at all times. His mother takes to this and sends him to therapy. Group Therapy. Age gap reduced, Frank is 17, Gerard is also 17, Mikey is 15, Pete is 16. {Mild cursing} [Trigger warnings: Suicide attempts, self harm, anorexia, alcohol addiction, drug use, divorce.] {Minor character death} (I do not claim photo on cover)Complete
