   Summary

   Meet me after class 5 tomorrow by the art room ? — Your secret admirer 

   The universe probably heard Mikey Way wrong. When he wished for a senior to be in love with him, he was thinking of Ray Toro himself, not some guy from his math class.

   Summary

   The silence is broken...

   Mikey's life is shattered when his husband, Ray, suffers a tragic death. Two years later, a mysterious letter arrives from Ray, beckoning him to return to their sanctuary of memories, the dark realm of Silent Hill.

   Now Mikey must go back to that special place to uncover the truth, unaware that the answers he seeks may require the ultimate sacrifice.

   Silent Hill 2 AU where Mikey is James and Ray is Mary (and consequently he has a Maria equivalent named Reyes).
