Wow, beautiful... I was actually looking for a sad Frerard piece for a few days, I don't know why. And I don't know why I clicked on this story, even though you didn't mention anything in the summary. I guess the title caught my attention, it sounds sad.
The emotions and the scenery were so vivid my eyes watered a bit and I wanna thank you for that - I know it sounds masochistic but... I dunno, I can just picture Gerard so lost like that in Frank's wedding reception, and Frank forgetting all about his happy day and worrying about Gerard. It's intense.
This is all so strong on its own as a standalone but maybe if you've got any more ideas, you could consider turning it into a chaptered story? Not necessarily a long one but a short chaptered story - just for the sake of the readers, huh ;)
Just so if you haven't noticed: I really do talk a lot...
