Summary
"Ice-cold fingers crept their way up the sides of my neck, and suddenly I was swapping saliva with lips that stunk of cigarettes and cheap beer. Normally, the mix would repulse me - but tonight, I needed some form of distraction. And hell, I could only imagine that mine tasted the same. After all, we’d indulged in the same shitty vices. And as much as my lips craved the high-caliber nicotine of Miranda’s kisses, tonight I was exchanging budget smooches; pall-malls, if you will."
*A continuation and alternate universe version of Better Off Dead, from Gerard's perspective. You don't need to read the original in order to understand this, although it might help. This has an alternative ending.
