Drag AU
Gerard is a drag queen, and a good one. He knows it. He's got racks of dresses, elaborate organisation schemes for his makeup. He thinks alcohol is the only thing that he'll ever really need despite Brendon, Ryan, his brother Mikey, his brothers boy friend Ray, Pete and Patrick all saying different. He has never even contemplated agreeing... before Frank anyway.
Frank is a fan of Gerard's, he goes to every show he can, staying in the background as much as he can. But then he finds Gerard alone in a dark alley slumped on the floor, passed out from the alcohol. After waking him up, Frank takes Gerard to his apartment where a friendship begins to bloom. And well we all know where that friendship is going to lead.
