    Summary

    Gerard is content with his life. At 41 he is the head of the Music department at a middle school in his hometown, he gets to put on the spring musical each year and he has dinner with his brother and his brother’s husband every Friday night. His life might be predictable, but he likes it that way.

    That is until Frank Iero shows up at his school. And in the house next to his brother’s. And in his brother’s coffee shop. And at Ray’s construction business. And in the god damn spring musical.

    And while they get along just fine, Gerard feels like Frank is hiding something.

     

    There’s a prologue to this, that goes into detail about Franks past, but this can be read without having read that.

    Summary

    Ma waves at Frank and says, "Hey there! Welcome to the neighborhood!" all loud and booming.

    Frank stops and stares at Ma with big eyes. He looks like he's about to be rung up and tied to the hood of a 1500. Frozen and afraid. He shifts his eyes down to me for a millisecond before picking up his dog and pushing through the front door.

    Ma chokes out a laugh through the smoke and hits me on the shoulder. She says, "See? An anti-social just like you."

    In the small town of Saugatuk, Michigan, life is simple and predictable. Neighbors leave their doors unlocked and kids play in the streets. No one suspects that their next door neighbor's strange, reclusive oldest son is sneaking away in the middle of the night to dump his left overs in Lake Erie-- watching them sink slowly down to the bottom before packing up his truck and heading back home. No one... except the new snarky punk kid from Jersey who just moved into the house right next to them.

    - or -

    A four-part short story where Gerard is a nonchalant blue collar vampire and Frank is annoying and persistent.

    Summary

    Sixteen year old Frank Iero can't seem to stay out of trouble. When he isn't getting drunk or high, he's picking fights at school or sneaking into neighborhood churches to deface their crucifixes. After his mother dies, things spiral even further out of control-and he eventually finds a court order to attend the WayThrough Mountain Academy: a faith-based recovery camp for troubled teens tucked away in the remote town of Stehekin, Washington.

    Whatever remaining hope Frank has for his future is slowly drained out of him, that is, until he falls into a deep, obsessive limerence for another equally troubled camper: Gerard.
