I spent the rest of the day crying in my room. How could she come to take e away after I found the place I finally belonged? This only makes me hate her more than ever. And the horrid husband of hers… well ex-husband. He will never be my father. Two knocks at my door interrupted my thoughts. "Are you okay?" I heard Gerard ask though the door. I didn't answer because I didn't want him to hear the sadness in my voice when I said I was fine. I heard footsteps going back down the stairs. I was glad he wasn't one of those parents who pressure you into telling them everything.
When I woke up I looked at the clock on the little table and it said 11:33 am. I wasn't used to sleeping as late as I wanted. At my old home I had to be awake and doing chores by 9 am or I was grounded. I was enjoying my new life! I showered and put on my red skinny jeans and my favorite My Chemical Romance t shirt. (these guys really saved my life)
"Good morning!" I cheered when I saw Gerard sitting at a desk doodling on some paper. "If that's what you wanna call it." he laughed half serious but I ignored it. "I went to star bucks while you were asleep. I got you coffee." He held it out to me. I took a sip and said "You were up early." His eyes looked red and tired. "I never went to sleep!" he said. I started to worry. Had my mom scared him last night? This was too stressful for the both of us. I didn't want to make him rethink letting me stay with him. Maybe I should just leave. All these thoughts ran through my head.
"So what cha drawing?" I asked trying to distract us both. He held us the picture he was working on. I was a picture of me all my green and purple hair. "Aw well don't I look adorable!" I laughed. "What's that on the back?" I asked. I noticed there was so words scribbled on the back of the picture he had drew. "Oh its nothing." He said just ignoring it. I snatched the paper out of his had and read what it said out loud. "That the world is ugly, But you're beautiful to me. Are you thinking of me? Are you thinking of him? Wow that's really good."
"Thanks." he replied. Wow my new father was so talented in so many things. Just another thing I loved about him. "So, wanna do something today?" he asked.
"Sure, like what?"
"Well I had an extra ticket to a Misfits concert in town and I was wondering if you wanted to go."
"You have Misfits tickets?" I yelled. "That's awesome! They've been sold out for weeks! You're the best dad in the world!" I yelled as I hugged him. Life was finally getting better for me.
After the concert we all went back to Gerard's house. "I'm hungry!" I said more like a brat than I intended.
"Well what do you want?" Gee asked.
"Umm… Chicken nuggets!" I cheered.
"Ew how can you eat something that used to be living?" Frank complained.
"Stop making me feel guilty or you'll be used to be alive." Mikey, Bob, and Ray all laughed.
