Summary
“We got a problem?” Gerard asks, same voice he uses to taunt hecklers onstage. The bravado slips on easy now, like a favorite coat.
The guy doesn’t take the bait, just keeps his arms crossed tight over his chest, jaw working.
Whatever. It’s not Gerard’s problem if some redneck gets worked up about a guy wearing makeup.

Summary
“It’s okay,” Frank says, gentle, his just-rescued-you-from-the-pound voice. Frank isn’t sure Gerard is listening — he’s closed his eyes, off in one of his worlds, even as he keeps rocking against Frank’s body. Usually, Frank doesn’t like disrupting him, but as endorphins overtake the pain he can’t stop the impulse to ask. “You could put it out on me. When you’re done.”

Summary
“What’s that?”
In lieu of an answer, Gerard presses a button and the thing jumps to life. It sounds like automatic weapons fire, snapping electric current pulsing between the prongs in Gerard’s fist. For a moment, Gerard’s face is lit up briefly in otherworldly blue light. He’s grinning. “It’s perfect for you.”

Summary
“I think you gotta— Maybe you should just force it out,” Gerard says. He sounds a little panicked.
“I can’t,” Frank replies. “Doesn’t work like that.”
“Here, I could—”
Frank looks up, finally, to see Gerard peering down at him. He’s never woken up during surgery to see the scalpel coming down, but he imagines it feels something like this.

Summary
“I don’t fuckin’ know,” he warbles. “I just wish you told me.”
“I did tell you. Just now.” Gerard is starting to get a little sick of Mikey feeling sorry for himself. It’s not like they don’t see other people. Seeing other people is the whole point. It makes coming back to each other matter more.
“Don’t hate me,” Gerard pitches up to plead a little. It’s usually not this fucking hard to goad Mikey out of his jeans. “Come on. You’ll feel better, probably. You’re acting really fuckin’ possessive right now.”

In a way, this amateurish performance is solid proof of Mikey’s position in life: something meant to be filled in, completed by Gerard.

Summary
Future-Gerard grins, for just a second. And then his face drops back into that predatory gaze like he’s tracking Gerard in much the same way that Gerard’s watching him. “How many people’s it been? How old are you? I can’t– shoulda done the math. Have you done this before?”
Gerard squirms. He can’t lie to himself. “Kinda,” he admits. “I mean, with Stacy–”
“Stacy,” W cuts him off. “Stacy. I know. Oh, gosh, you really are just a baby.”
Gerard splutters.
“It’s so cute,” W continues. “I knew it was gonna be cute, but this is too much.”

W’s every harsh breath goes right through Gerard’s whole body in waves, inescapable, all-consuming. “God, you’re so sweet. I’m gonna eat you the fuck up.”

Summary
Being a struggling comic book artist doesn’t exactly pay the bills, even while living in the family basement. Luckily, Gerard has found a second source of income as New Jersey’s resident kinkster. Whatever fantasy you want to fulfil, Gerard is your guy, or your girl; your Dom or your sub. Hell, he’ll even be your aunt Marie if the price is right. He may not be very professional, but what he lacks in experience and personal hygiene, he makes up for in enthusiasm and creativity.
Frank knows it’s objectively a bad idea to pay his crush to treat him like a puppy on a regular basis. Especially since Gerard has one rule he seemingly doesn’t intend to break – he won’t sleep with his customers.

"Do you think of us all like brothers?"
"Uh," Frank said. A prickle of nerves ran down his spine and settled in his stomach. "You mean in the band?"
"Yeah."
"Uh," Frank said, longer. "I mean. No?"
"Oh," Gerard said.

Summary
It was as if someone had taken a seam ripper to his little teddy bear of a brother and torn all of the stuffing out. High school left him open and deflated on the side of the road. Just shredded him. He’s always been so delicate. He sops the grease off pizza with napkins before it touches his mouth now.
Gerard undoes his belt for him.

Maybe when they’re older, Gerard will have to learn how to love him hands-off.
