† Chapter 1 †

Another day passed and once again another foster home. Gerard never stayed long, he never planted his roots, he only said his hellos and then furthermore goodbyes. He had been fostered with just about every other Catholic in New Jersey and it wasn't a lie to say he had come to a mild hatred over the holy buildings. Until one day... one day and one boy made it just a little more tolerable.

Heads up for triggers here, I'll add when I get to them but this story will deal with pretty heavy topics regarding religious trauma and homophobia. /homophobia/
