Why this must be read:
My note:Not sure why this month became a Mikey-fest, but here's another Mikey rec. I could have spent the whole month reccing nothing but [livejournal.com profile] arsenicjade fics. She has such solid grasp of all the characters and a deft way of mixing humour and drama. This one really gets inside Mikey's head, and although it is kid!fic, and she's adorable, she doesn't take over the story. The parts with Alicia are heartbreaking. But at least there's always his brother and the guys in the band to keep Mikey going.

Author's note: This was started before Bob and MCR parted ways and before Frank announced Jamia's pregnancy. Canon is based accordingly.
Mikey & Alicia have a baby. And a divorce. The band pitches in to help Mikey. Especially Bob.

Gerard peered closer and asked, "Uh, three months, right? That's what the notation says."
Mikey nodded. "She didn't want--"
Gerard shook his head. "No, man, you shouldn't. Things get fucked up early on."
Mikey nodded again, his gaze still on the picture. "It's awfully, uh. Squishy."
"Bandit was squishy too," Gerard told him earnestly. "You remember, I showed you."
"Yeah, just--" Just, it felt different, knowing that the squishy thing that needed to harden up was made from himself. Mikey wasn't sure he had enough hard parts himself to pass on to someone else.
"It's perfect," Gerard said. "You'll see. Totally perfect."
Mikey was glad Gerard was always so confident about the big things. It made it easy to follow his lead.
