Frank and Gerard meet while skipping school outside in the alley close by.
One skipping to seem more badass than he actually is.
The other to not feel so out of place.
Will they be able to see through one another like no other?

Frank lives with his wealthy grandfather, after his parents decided they couldn't stay together to deal with a kid.

Gerard lives with his single alcoholic mother and little brother who's always out getting up to stuff.

Frank is admired by practically everyone, girls always all over him, an honor if he considers you a friend, hosting or attending parties every Friday.

Gerard is the loner kid who no one actually knows the name of, hardly ever noticed. Basically social suicide to be friends with him.

(3rd but more Gerard centered)
