    Summary

    "Mikey. Mikeymikeymikey," Gerard says, flopping down on the couch with his phone.
    "Mm-hm," Mikey says. "Anything else?"
    "Mikey," Gerard repeats for good measure. "I'm screwed. What the fuck."
    There's a silence on Mikey's end.
    "What did Frank do now," he sighs finally.

    Summary

    Gerard Way had never been a particularly brave person; all his life, he had shied away from anything even remotely dangerous or out of the ordinary. In fact, he was a fucking coward. But his life is forever changed when he is drafted into the Vietnam War, and when he meets Frank Iero, the stunningly courageous boy who takes Gerard's life and flips it upside down.

    Summary

    Thirteen years, five deployments, one divorce.

    Frank spent his life waiting for Gerard through every tour, loving him in the dark moments, believing he’d always come back. But war changed him, and in the end, leaving was the only thing he did without a second thought.

    Now Gerard is back in Belleville, and Frank tells himself it doesn’t matter. That the future they once dreamed of and the life they lost are just pieces of something long gone.

    But if that’s true, why does it still hurt like hell?
