I'm sorry for making you all wait and for stalling, but my life is too hectic right now and I have more important things on my mind. Since I'm finally at home, maybe the waits will get shorter.
Maybe is such a bittersweet word to me. I love it because it gives me an excuse not to explain things... And I dispise it because it's so simple... I don't like simple. I reject simple.
Hindsight is great, eh Frankieboy? Stop thinking and do something. You don't know until you try.
Sara, you fullfill my need for complexity. You're about the only one who does it consistently, too. :arms:
PAGE CLAIM! Titled: Bleeding Love. For multiple reasons... But I won't elaborate, except for saying, I think it fits Frank and Gerard's situation well.
you are amazing. and i LOVE you for updating right after i came back to this story.
coincidence?
probably, but good coincidence nonetheless.
this story is so beautiful. so infinitely sad, but so beautiful. and the way you capture gerard's pain and his coldness, and yet his mangled but still struggling hope. and frank's utter denial and hurt and somehow still, his love for gerard.
its really all just so fucking beautiful.
you are amazing. you are a brilliant author. truer words i have never spoken in this lifetime.
Was a bit short, but still was great! I hope gerard doesn't sink back into his toxins..... but i kinda doubt he will.. and poor frank, still trying to work out his feelings......*sigh* this is going to be an interesting stay at the mansion....
okay. I cant believe you. I cant believe me! I cant believe this. I am so so so stupid. I left this story for the longest time, always meaning to get back to it, never actually doing it. And while i am cursing myself for that, im also kind of glad. because that just made this so much fucking better. god. this story...is amazing. you are an amazing author. and its not even just the way you write, the words you use, how fucking beautiful that all is...its also just how true this is. or how right. how perfect. how...real. i love this so much. I loved its not a mistake. and this is better? maybe. i dont know. i think--even though im scared to say it--yes. you've captured it all perfectly. the break, the fall, the hurt--everything.
and i genuinely, genuinely love you for this. i have missed your writing more than you and i will ever fully know. and i will be reading this. for as long as you will write this. i will be reading.
Frankieboy, you're already in for the ride. Get over it. :roll:
I do, however, agree that Gee may not be ready for a relationship. He's still in the mindframe that the drugs made him a great musician. That's unhealthy, therefore being with him would be unhealthy.
They're both running in circles chasing their own tails. But at least that's a step above chasing each others' tails. That got them nowhere.
This probably won't, either. But it's fun to watch.
So, I've just had time to read the last three updates, because of graduation and a wedding (mine and definitely not mine). So, here we go! Chapter 15: One of my favorite chapters so far as well. It's true, you know. I love it. Very much so. "You're better than drugs" reminded me of the line from Twilight "You are my heroin". It made my chest erupt and crumble all at the same time. I think it may have broken my heart and then stitched it back up with no anaesthetic all at the same time. Sheer greatness. Chapter 16: Why not tell Mikey the truth? He'll realize it eventually anyway. Just reading the chapter gave me a vague sense of unease. Creepy. I could almost feel the static electricity crawling up my skin, making my arms break out into chilblains. *shivers* I could smell the pollution and decay and could hear the thunder and the vague crackling sounds of ozone thickening around them in preparation for a huge motherfucking storm. Or, maybe, like Gerard, I've just seen far too many scary movies. Chapter 17: "this mansion is draftier than an old shack in the middle of Greenland." Straight off made me laugh. I love the descriptive way he has of speaking. I wish I could speak like that. Maybe if I had a Dictaphone and was inspired enough...oh well. And, in case you were wondering, no I don't hate you. It's obvious that Gerard still loves Frank and needs him more than anything, but it's equally obvious that Frank can't give up on attempting to quash what feelings he has left for Gerard. Who knows how Gerard will answer? Well, obviously you do, but you know what I mean. I hope you write with an outline, because I don't and I would be so lost as to where to go right now. I can't wait for another update. Did you graduate okay? College and whatnot are in the future for both of us, I suppose, then. Where are you attending? More updates soon? I love this story. It's so perfect and has such an atmosphere. It's like I'm right there with them as the story unfolds. I can feel and hear and see and smell and taste everything that they do. Well, in a figurative, in my head sort of way, anyway. Or maybe I'm just crazy and have synesthesia and really can do all of those things just from reading words on the page. That'd be really cool.
