So this is my first Frerard! I'll upload more chapters after awhile. Review to tell me if it was good or horrible? THANKS!


Have you ever felt the feeling of being…so alone? I have, I still do. I rarely talk to people, so I guess I can only blame myself, but it gets to you after awhile. My brother Mikey and his bestfriend Ray are the only people that I feel safe around, like I can only open up to them.

I hear a tap on my bedroom door. I'm still in bed, and right now I don't feel the sudden urge to move. Oh crap, it's Monday! I hate Mondays; they're the worst at school. It's like everyone just decided to pick on the 'pale, skinny, gay freak' every Monday.

"Hey, Gerard, you up?" Mikey asked through the door.

"Yeah, I…I'm up."

"Okay, but could you, erm, hurry up? I wanna get to school early today."

"Uh…yeah. I'm already ready!" I lied.

"I doubt that, but okay!"

I ran out of bed, looked in the mirror and almost started crying. I had hated my appearance. People told me I was skinny, but on the inside, all I felt was…fat, and self hatred. After a minute of near-sobbing, I pulled myself together, put on my eyeliner and combed through my shaggy black hair. I changed clothes, putting on black skinnies and a black Misfits tee. This time, I didn't dare look in the mirror. It would only bring me sadness.

Just outside my door was Mikey. He was sitting on the floor, against the wall.

"Hey Mikes, you ready?"

"Yeah, I guess so," he said enthusiastically. What was his problem today? First he wanted to get to school early, now he was happy in the morning? This wasn't the Mikey I had grown up with.

We walked downstairs and out the door, into my car and out the driveway. I felt Mikey's eyes on me.

"Hey, erm, Gerard?"

"Yeah, Mikes?"

"I think I like someone…"

All I could really do was just giggle, which the look on his face showed me it wasn't the right thing to do.

"Okay, who do you like?" I finally asked.

He sighed and crossed his arms. "Maybe I don't want to tell you now."

"Mikey, you're being childish."

"Okay, but maybe I'm just not ready to tell anyone yet."

I sighed. "You're the one that brought it up, tell me now!"

"Naw, I'm good." He smirked.

I scoffed. "Pfft, fine then!"

We finally got to the school, but it was as I was getting out of the car that I realized something. Mikey saw the worried look on my face.

"What's wrong Gee?"

"No coffee." I shook my head. "Oh well, I'll deal."

Well here we were, five minutes before class. I didn't have much to do, but Mikey quickly found Ray. Ray was nice, we both seemed to talk a lot and he was always at my house.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a new car roll into the parking lot. It found a spot and its owner came out. I didn't really get a good look at the kid, but I could tell he was new.

First bell rang and everyone rushed to their classes, some quicker than others. I was always late, but my teacher never seemed to mind. She liked me; I got good grades and stayed quiet.

About five minutes after I had gotten to my class, the door opened again. Another student walked in. It was the new kid.

Mrs. Macy cleared her throat to get our attention. "Oh, students," she announced, "this is our new student, Frank. Frank, why don't you go sit in that seat over there?"

I didn't need to look up at Mrs. Macy, or even Frank, to know where she was making him sit. Great, just my luck. I knew Mrs. Macy was trying to get me to talk more to kids at school, but…I was used to having the seat next to me empty. It was easy to think better, without conversation.

"Um, hello?" he said. Wait, was he talking to me? Nobody ever really talks to me. I'm just that creepy kid. I just had to look up at him. I raised my eyes to look up at him for the first time. I froze after I processed his appearance.

Damn, he was fucking gorgeous.

He had dark hair, the most beautiful eyes I had ever seen, the pinkest and loneliest lips. He, Frank, had a scorpion tattoo up high on his neck, which seemed to make him look even more…intimidating. His hair was in his face, but in an attractive way. He was wearing eyeliner too! It looked so good on him, just dazzling.

I guess I must have been staring because he said hello again and I was just sitting there like, HOLY SHIT! This kid a lip ring too, and earrings. Those complimented his appearance even more. God, what am I thinking?

"Hi. I'm sorry! My name is Gerard, Gerard Way. You're Frank?"

He laughed. "Oh, it's fine. And yes, Frank Iero."

Oh I was definitely going to find out more about this guy.

"Iero? Did I even pronounce that right?"

He gave me a small smile. "Yes you did, actually."

"Yay." I was secretly screaming inside. Was this real?

"Hey I know it's not something you ask someone you just met, but could I have your number? " he paused, "for catching up on my classes?"

"Oh, yeah, sure!"

The day went by too quickly. Pretty soon it was lunch and I was sitting with Mikey and Ray. After about ten minutes I saw Frank walking towards us. He looked scared, alone.

"Hey Gerard!" He said as he spotted me.

"Hey Frankie-erm, Frank!" What? Where did that come from?

"Hey,don't mind if I sit with you right? You're the only person I could find…" he trailed off.

I looked at my brother and his friend. The two just nodded and smiled.

"Sure, go ahead." We both exchanged smiles. He sat next to me.

Mikey cleared his throat, "Hey, Gee? Is it okay if you could help me with my homework?"

"Yeah, sure Mikes."

Frank's head snapped up from his tray. "Hey, uh, do you think you could help me with my homework as well?" His eyes pleaded with mine.

"Uh, sure! I guess if it's okay if you could come over later?"

"My mom won't mind, trust me. It involves school, she'll say yes." He smiled.

"Okay! Ray you coming over too?"

Ray nodded. "Already asked my parents; they're cool with it."

"Okay then, everyone at mine" I smiled at the idea.

No, I smiled at the thought of Frank at my house.
