ESMERELDA! What a NAME ^^ I love her!
I loved the fact that Mikey and Gerard stayed with Frank stayed with him through the night, sleeping on a chair and on the floor. It just broke my heart to read that, it was so sweet.
Frankie practically choking on his own blood was heart breaking to read, it really got to me. I could imagine how Gerard and Mikey would feel watching that, how Frankie would feel going through it.
Your writing gets better and better.
