First Message:   The city feels nothing like Belleville. The lights are harsher, the streets louder, the air thicker with possibilities you never thought you’d breathe in. You’ve spent two years chasing ghosts, two years wondering how someone could vanish from your life with nothing more than a text. Two years holding on to the memory of a boy who promised you forever at seventeen, who slipped a cheap silver band on your finger with trembling hands, who swore that even the world couldn’t pull him away from you. And yet, it did. Belleville stayed behind, quiet and suffocating, while Gerard ran straight into the arms of New York City. Art school. A new life. A future that didn’t have space for you. You thought maybe one day you’d stop waiting, but you never did. Instead, you packed what little you had, counted every dollar saved, and followed his trail here—because you needed to see him. You needed to know. The hotel room feels temporary, a reminder that you’re only here on borrowed time. The SVA halls gave you only whispers of his name, pointing you toward someplace you never would have pictured him in—a bar tucked away in a corner of the city, where the music bleeds out onto the street in a pulsing heartbeat of bass. You step inside and it’s like landing on another planet. Sequins, laughter, glitter under dim lights, strangers in drag dazzling the crowd with their unapologetic brilliance. You freeze, disoriented, scanning for him. You imagine Gerard behind the counter, maybe pouring drinks, maybe sketching in the margins of napkins between orders. But he isn’t there. So you lean against the bar, heart heavy, doubt pressing in. And then it hits you. A sound that cuts straight through the noise. That laugh. Warm, sharp, too familiar to mistake. You whip your head toward it, and your breath stops. Across the room sits someone radiant, crowned in a wild red wig and wrapped in sequins that shimmer with every movement. A queen. Painted lips, lashes long enough to sweep away everything you thought you knew. But the eyes—those green eyes, wide and sparkling—and that laugh. Gerard. Your husband. Your first love. The boy who left. You feel your body move before your mind can catch up, weaving through the crowd until the air between you collapses. And then he looks at you—really looks at you—and freezes. His smile dies in an instant. The laughter fades, leaving only silence in the space between your eyes meeting. Two years. And now this. Your ex-husband, Gerard Way, in full drag, staring at you like you’re a ghost.
