Oh no. I sense an argument now Pete knows Gerard used to beat Mikey. I don't really know what to say about these chapters anymore because they just amaze me every time. Just.. really good job.Author's response
Yep, a storm is a-brewing. Pete does not take at all kindly to people hurting Mikey and Gerard, well, Gerard is Gerard.
Thank you very much; I'm sooooooooo pleased that you like what I write!

Oooh, a decision. I'm rubbish at those. I'd say, go with the longer one, because then I get to read your beautiful writing for longer. But it MUST have a happy ending, or I shall be severely depressed. Or, you can do the shorter one, and immediately start a new fic? In which case I am sure to get a happy ending, AND I can continue to read your stuff. I believe that is called a 'win-win situation.'Author's response
I must say that I am definitely being swayed towards option two, although I can't guarantee that the ending will be happy for all concerned. Which I's kind of why I want to do it. With regards to option one, I think that once this fic is done I'm just going to work on one-shots rather than chaptered stories.
Thank you very much for taking the time to review; you have been most helpful. :)Perfectly Imperfect

I almost had a heart attack when I saw this chapter. Usually I don't get to read the next one until the next day.
Anyway, I'm so glad Gerard has finally started to understand what's happening and how to fix it with the help of Frank. The only thing he'll have a hard time getting to grips with is Pete. But hopefully after they argue and get it all off their chests, they will understand each other better.
Oh, and option two all the way. A big twist, depressing, but with a pretty much happy ending. That's all I really ask for in a fic xDAuthor's response
Yep, Gerard just needs to sort things with Pete now, although I doubt that Pete is very happy with him at the moment...
I'm glad that you picked option two, I was more leaning towards that one anyway. It will be properly depressing and there probably will be a happy-ish ending, just maybe not for all concerned...

What a line to finish the chapter off with!!! Oh this is too exciting! I can't wait to see what Gerard thinks of this. I wonder if Gerard will start an argument or will he be thanking him. Too much suspense!!! About option 1 or 2, I would like to see lots more so option 2 for me but it is your story so write what you want. I know it will be excellent anyway! ;)Author's response
I'm soooo pleased that you found this exciting; I was kinda worried that it was boring so to hear that you think it was exciting is really great!
I'm definitely thinking more option two.

Heh, do option 2 just to add drama and suspense :3 This was SO good. I'm glad Gerard's not being a prick anymore, but I'm sure he'll turn into one again when he talks to Pete (ohgod that'll be exciting) XD And Frankie was so perfect, saving the day with forgiveness and love as usual. I loved it! MORE. :DAuthor's response
I think I will do option two.
Thank you very much; I'm really happy that you think this chapter was alright! You're right about Gerard's prickyness... him and Pete are less than impressed with each other at the moment.

i'm gonna go with option two, cuz its longer. but if pete does something bad to mikey then option one...that would just be way too sad. I loved this chapter!you manage to cram so much emotion into these things, and it makes them seem so real. still an amazing story!

Okay so I know I shout at you every update about how Mikey should never be hurt and Gerard should stop being a dick but I want the deppressing version. What can I say I love reading my idols lives being ruined? -shrugs- Exelent chapter, I'm not quite so mad with Gerard now, I love reading the flashbacks I think they add even more depth to this story. I can't wait for a possible bitch fight in the next chapter!Author's response
I think the depressing version is what shall happen; I totally get what you mean about watching lives being ruined. ;)
Thank you very much; I'm really pleased that you think this chapter is alright! I'm relieved that you like the flashbacks, I was kinda very worried that they didn't fit.

I don't like Gerard, but I do at the same time. I just don't know what to feel about him, but I really like the way he's written and the way he acts works really well in this story. I hate when he acts like he knows what's best for Mikey. He doesn't know at all. If Mikey is still stuttering around him, that obviously means something and they don't talk enough for Gerard to know exactly how deep his insecurities go. There's more to his insecurity than just his scar and his stuttering. He should know that. I was really shocked to see what Gerard thought about him.
Maybe he's so cruel about Mikey having a relationship with someone because he's known Mikey all his life, and he still doesn't have the relationship he desires with him, so he feels that nobody else is able to have a relationship with Mikey. Maybe it's worse and he really believes that Mikey isn't exactly worthy of anyone's love and isn't trying to make himself believe that nobody could fall in love with him. That's basically what he said. I couldn't tell you why I like him though. Maybe it's because he's got the potential to be a really great brother, probably just as good as before his alcohol addiction. My dislike for him is definitely stronger than my like for him right now. I was disgusted at what he said about his brother. Just the fact that you could bring up such emotion in a reader really says that you're a wonderful author. And how dare Gerard say he was honest about all the things he yelled at Mikey??? How is any of it true? He says it's because of his fear of leaving him alone, so maybe if he wasn't afraid he'd have no problem leaving him alone, and also it's not Mikey's fear of being alone. Yes, he's afraid of being laughed at and pointed at, but... I don't know. I don't know where I'm going with this, but I just don't like that Gerard said all that. Also, Gerard sounds very vain here. He says that Mikey wants nothing more than his praise and affection. Well, I guess thats what it seems to Gerard, but he so obviously doesn't know how insecure Mikey is because Mikey just wants to be a good brother. Maybe it's different because I know how Mikey sees it. He just wants to be a good little brother because Gerard is always so "honest" about how he's such a bad brother. I think I'm just looking for reasons not to like Gerard, but that tiny bit of hope that Gerard'll stop acting like that. The phone call was really interesting. I'd like to see what else Pete says. Despite all that I think, I would like to read option 2. It sounds really interesting. Well, great job. This was very well written and I love this. I like the way he's written and it is a really great fit for the story, I just don't know if I actually like him or not. Beautiful job.Author's response
I'm pleased that you're kind of unsure about how you feel about Gerard, I kinda wanted to create a sense of uncertaintity about him.
Your interpritation (excuse my spelling) of this chapter is spot on to what I was hoping it would come through as; Gerard really has no clue at all when it comes to what's best for Mikey. He should know that it isn't just outer things (i.e. his scar) that make him insecure, it's what people (including Gerard) have convinced him of in the past too. I totally get what you're saying about Gerard's reasoning for being cruel about Mikey having a relationship. I'm glad that you think Gerard has potential to be a good big brother, if only he could just open his eyes to what's going on around him.
Thank you sooooo much; I'm really chuffed that you think this brought emotion.
I didn't really realise it when I wrote it, but now that you mention Gerard was being extremely vain in this chapter in assuming that his praise is all that Mikey wants.
Option two is what I shall do, it has majority vote and I was kinda dying to write that one anyway. Just remember this; it's not gonna be a walk in the park in a few chapters time...
Thank you so very much for taking the time to leave such a nice and detailed review; it really does mean a lot to me! :)
