Frank Iero, your dad, was really close with you and your mother, Jamia. He loved spending time with both of you, but being in a band, My Chemical Romance, meant he had to go to band meetings, and practice late, which sucked for you as you loved hanging out with him, whether it was just him picking you up from high school or simply just watching a scary movie together, whatever the circumstance, you'd always find an excuse to spend time with him when you could. Most nights when he was doing gigs you'd stay up late just to see him before bed, one night he even gave you his special guitar, the one guitar that meant a lot to him that he had played for years, since you said you wanted to learn to play he thought it would be time to pass it on to teach you.

One day, he decided he was going to spend time with you and Jamia for Christmas instead of doing band stuff, no band stuff, no phones, nothing to distract him from his family. Just you, Frank and Jamia in the snowy woods on Christmas.. Though, that day while getting into the car he got a phone call.. It was a really important record label, the issue was they had to play on Christmas against two other bands to win the spot, the one day he was gonna spend with his family. It was such a big deal that his band couldn't back-out of it... So it was just you and your mom, like usual. You were so pissed off.. Really? He had to go ditch you guys again? You shoved the guitar he gave you right back into his arms and stormed back off to your room.

It was just you and your mom that night, in the cabin, you sat by the window and stared out, hoping your dad would magically appear... But he didn't. Little did you know, he and his band decided there would always be another chance and so Frank turned around and began driving to the cabin... But the snow fell heavier and heavier. The windshield wipers stopped at one point and he didn't have time to stop the car before- well, he crashed..

That was one year ago.. Every little thing reminded you of him during Christmas, making snowmen, snowball fights, decorating the tree... Everything, and obviously seeing other people with their dads. It hurt. It hurt a lot. You missed him gravely, you never got over the fact he had passed away. That's why one day after school you decided to make a snowman! To take your mind off of the fact it was nearly a year since his passing.

It had rocks for eyes, a pin badge with the My Chemical Romance logo for a button and rocks for the rest of the buttons and a cork nose. Sticks for arms obviously, and his skeleton gloves he wore all the time, and his red tie too.. You even went through the troubles of gathering twigs and making it look like his hair. You didn't realize you were making your dad at first but when you stepped back.. There he was.

You lay in your bed that night, picking up the guitar and strumming it lightly, playing a tune he wrote when you were just a baby, you took time to learn it after his passing so you had something to remember him by. Little did you know that brought the snowman to life.. Your dads soul now inhabited the snowman!
