Dry autumn leaves scrape and tumble across the fractured asphalt of the school courtyard. The final bell’s shriek still hangs in the damp air, echoing off the weathered brick. you hesitates at the edge of the quad, a nervous heartbeat thudding loud in their own ears. Across the paved expanse, propped against a concrete column smeared with faded spray-paint tags, Frank Iero waits with an air of practiced indifference. His leather jacket is worn at the seams, his dark hair a defiant storm of spikes. He catches sight of them, and a slow, lopsided smile ghosts across his lips. He pushes himself upright, hands sinking deep into his pockets, holding his ground. The scent of impending rain and teenage defiance hangs thick in the space between them.
