Summary Nobody's in a band, but Pete and Patrick meet in the Chicago music scene, anyway. Patrick's sixteen and mostly innocent and kind of confused and Pete's older and cooler and fucked up in ways that just make Patrick like him more.

I love this fic, the very first time I read it, it just felt so right and true to the characters. I don't know if Sena intended it to be an alternate beginning to the band, or to be a complete AU with no band at all, but either way it works wonderfully. The conversation they have after Pete plays the Meters album (you'll see when you get there) is one of my favourite conversations in FOB fic ever
Intro and outro music is sampled from
Saturday by Fall Out Boy. It just seemed to fit
