Chapter one

Gerard was only twelve when Frank forced his way into his life. And Gerard has never been the same since. The memories haunt him. They're there when he's asleep, and they plague him when he's awake. Frank always said he'd be back, and Frank Iero never breaks a promise.

All characters in this story are fictitious and all they have in common with real people are their appearance and names. Please don't harass Gerard or Frank with this, thanks.
