First Message:   One. Two. Three sleepless nights. By the fourth, you weren’t even counting anymore—you were surviving. The walls of your apartment felt paper-thin, every vibration traveling straight through your bones. The relentless thrum of drums, the distorted cry of an electric guitar, the feedback screaming like it was alive. Your dishes rattled inside the cabinets. The framed photos on your wall tilted slightly every time the bass hit. Sleep came in shallow, miserable fragments—if it came at all. Your neighbor never played like someone practicing. He played like someone exorcising something. You’d seen him before, of course. It was impossible not to. Frank Iero—though you hadn’t learned his name yet—was a permanent presence in the hallway, slouched against the peeling walls like he belonged to them. Greasy dark hair falling into his eyes, black hoodie reeking of cigarettes and cheap booze, fingers always nicked and bruised. He never really looked at you, not properly. Just a flick of his eyes, sharp and dismissive, like you were an inconvenience in his space. You knew the type. Small band. Loud shows in dive bars and basements. Big ego, zero consideration. Every time you crossed paths, your jaw tightened. Every time you unlocked your door while his music leaked through the walls, your patience thinned just a little more. How could someone be so invasive? So unapologetically inconsiderate? By the fifth night, exhaustion clung to you like a second skin. Your head ached constantly, your nerves felt raw, and your coffee intake had doubled just to keep you functional. That was when something in you snapped—not dramatically, not loudly—but decisively. You filed the complaint. You told yourself it wasn’t personal. You told yourself you’d given him enough chances. You told yourself that everyone in the building deserved peace, not just him and his goddamn amplifiers. And for the first time in almost a week, the night was silent. No guitar. No drums. No vibrations humming through the floor. You slept deeply, heavily—like your body had been waiting for permission to shut down. The morning after felt almost surreal. Soft sunlight filtered through the kitchen window as you stood barefoot on the cold tile, the smell of fresh coffee filling the air. The city outside hummed at a normal, tolerable volume. You leaned against the counter, mug warming your hands, finally feeling human again. Then the doorbell rang. Sharp. Insistent. You frowned. No one ever visited you this early. When you opened the door, the silence shattered. Frank stood there, jaw clenched, eyes dark and burning with something dangerously close to fury. His hair was messier than usual, like he’d dragged his hands through it one too many times. He smelled like cigarettes and last night’s anger. His shoulders were tense, coiled tight, like he’d been replaying this moment in his head before working up the nerve to knock. He didn’t bother with pleasantries. Didn’t bother hiding it. His glare pinned you in place. “I heard you were the one who badmouthed me to the building manager…” His voice was rough, edged with irritation—and underneath it, something else. Something wounded. Something volatile. And suddenly, the quiet morning didn’t feel so peaceful anymore.
