Disclaimer: Sadly, I don't own MCR and the surprise characters... WHYYY :'(?
"I'm not going to handle three days without you, Frankie. Not in this living hell. Why can't you wait for me?"
"Sorry Gee. But I've been pushing how long I can stay already, and if I don't go tomorrow, I can't go anymore… I'm so sorry for leaving you here, but I'm going tonight."
I just wanted to cry. In that last week, me and Frank had become real friends. It was going to be hard being alone again. I knew what the other kids were going to do to me. But I was going to survive. I had to.
"Okay… So, Friday at 4 o'clock, right?"
He smiled. "Fine…. I won't forget…"
"Neither will I."
We hugged, said our goodbyes and then parted ways.
"I'm home!" I yelled, as soon as I opened the door and got inside. "Is it anybody here? Mikey? Mom?"
I heard a guy's voice, but it was in another language.
"Show yourself, whoever you are…. Or… Or I'll call the cops!"
Again someone spoke, but it didn't sound like the same language as before. So that's when I remembered. "MICHAEL JAMES WAY! Come here right now and stop that!" I yelled.
I heard my brother walking down the stairs. When he was near me, he began to laugh; "Isn't it just great that I can talk all the languages in the world and that my voice can project itself to anywhere I want?"
I gave him a small punch in the arm "As long as you don't use it to scare fragile and weak brothers…"
"Fragile and weak? You? Don't make me laugh, Gerard. You can be invisible! I bet you can do more, but you just don't know it yet."
"The problem is that I can't control my power!"
"But that's why we're going to that school, isn't it? Don't worry, Artie, it'll all be fine."
"DON'T YOU DARE CALLING ME ARTIE!" I yelled, giving him several more punches in the arm. He was laughing and complaining at the same time. He always had this thing where he called me Artie, like Arthur, my middle name. "You don't like when I call you Jamie, do you?" I said, with a smile in my face.
I saw his smile turning into a poker face. Then he turned his back to me and went upstairs.
"Whatever, man. You started this." I said. He didn't returned and I could hear him slamming his bedroom's door.
I went to my bedroom as well. I sat on the secretary, put my headphones, tuned my iPod on and started to draw.
I don't know why I did it, but I started to draw Frank, in a super-hero suit. It was orange and covered his entire body, except for the head. On his chest, there was a "M" in white, inside a black triangle. After that, I finished up with a mask that covered his eyes and his nose. As title, I wrote "MController".
When I looked at the drawing and saw how awesome it was, I dialed Frank's phone number and called him.
"Hey Gee. What do you want?" He said, his voice cheerful.
"Hum I'd like to send something to you. Call me when you get my e-mail okay?"
"Okay."
I sent him the drawing. A minute later he called me.
"OH MY GOD GERARD! IT'S AMAZING! Thank you thank you thank you! How did you come up with this?"
"I don't know… It just popped in my head."
"Well, I think it's awesome. Oh man, thanks. But now I gotta hang up 'cause I still have a lot to do. See you in three days, Gee."
"Bye Frankie."
After he hung up, I took my clothes off, staying only with my boxers on and I went to bed.
The following day was awful. In school, everyone made fun of me. Everybody said that I was in love with Frank and called me all kinds of names to insult me.
But the worst part was on my way home. My mom couldn't go pick me up at school so I had to go by foot. In my way, I found a group of six boys who used to be with Frank when he was popular.
"What's up, Geetard? Why aren't you walking with him?" One of them said, making the other laugh.
"I bet there's photos of him all over the wall of your room, like a sanctuary in Frank's honor." Another said, making them laugh even more.
I turned my back to them and continued walking home. Until I felt a hand on my shoulder, making me turn in the opposite direction. Immediately after, I was punched.
"Someone said that you could walk away, gay?" He said, in a threatening tone, and then gave me a punch to the stomach, making me fall to my knees. Two boys joined him and started to kick me. At a certain point, my mouth tasted like blood and my vision started to blur. The pain was less intense and I just closed my eyes.
When I opened them again I saw three figures: two boys and one girl.
"He's waking up." One of them said
"Go call him. He must be worried." Said the girl.
My sight was still pretty blurred so I couldn't see the details of their faces. The only thing that stood out in one of the boys was a red mark in the left side of his face.
"How are you, Gee?" Someone said. That person was now sat next to me. That voice was familiar… Where have I heard it before? "Thanks. You were wonderful Katara." He said again. Frank!
"Where am I?" I said. I started to see normally. The girl had long brown hair and big blue eyes. In her neck, there was a necklace almost attached to her neck made of blue silk and, in the middle, there was a stone with what it seemed tribal markings.
One of the boys was tall, with long hair. In the left side of his face he had a gigantic scar that covered his eye and his ear. He had hazel narrowed eyes and he look like he could kick your ass.
The other boy was the shortest. Instead of hair, he had a enormous blue tattoo of an arrow that pointed down. He had a friendly and pacific look.
"You're in my room." Frank said. "I realized something wasn't right so, I teleported myself to you. Even when I got there, you were already asleep in the middle of the street, alone and covered in blood and bruised all over you body. So I brought you here. This is Katara. She can control water, I mean, bend water is the correct term. She also has healing power and so, she was the one who healed you. These are her friends; Zuko and Aang. Zuko can bend fire and Aang can bend the four elements, although where he's much better at just bending Air. There's one more girl, Toph, that can control the Earth and metal, but she's in classes right now."
"Please, don't make me go to that school again, Frankie. I want to come to here. Today. Before I end up dead." I pleaded, and felt my tears running down my face.
He looked to Aang and Zuko with a hesitating look. Then, he asked Aang if he could call the principal.
When he got out the bedroom, Frank smiled at Zuko and Katara "What's going on between you two?"
They blushed and looked at the floor. Me and Frank looked at each other and just started to laugh like maniacs.
"I don't need to read minds to know that you are in love with each other!" Frank said, trying to control his laughs.
They looked to each other and smiled, in a cute and gentle way.
I could tell they were going to kiss, when Aang appeared. It was pretty obvious that they knew that he also liked Katara, and they didn't want to hurt his feelings.
"She's not in the building. But I talked to the vice-principal and told him what happened. Outside here isn't a safe place anymore, Gerard. You and Frank are going to your house, pack your things up and leave. Tonight. Tell Mikey to do the same." He said, in a very calm and peaceful tone.
"Do you want to go right now? You look tired. Maybe you should get some rest." Frank said.
"I'll sleep when I get back." I said to him, sitting on the bed. I looked at Frank, and I noticed that he was smiling, but he was looking to my chest, not to my face. That's when I noticed I didn't have a t-shirt.
"Where the hell is my t-shirt?" I yelled, blushing.
"Gee, your shirt was covered in blood. Here, take one of mine. This is the biggest I've got, I think." Frank answered, giving one of his T-shirts.
I put it on and I immediately notice the strong perfume of Frank and that it was awfully tight and short.
"My god, Frankie! This is so tight!"
He let go a little giggle and said "Let's go?"
I nodded and he helped me getting up. He held my hand and we both appeared in my room.
"What do you want to take?"
"Everything. My clothes, posters, computer, my drawing, my shoes, my makeup and my scanner. Could you teleport to carry the things and come back?"
"Okay. What do you want to take first?"
"Hum… Take the computer first, then come back for the scanner and for what's closer to you, while I pack up with my clothes."
He grabbed the computer and vanished. I took my travel bag from my closet and started to put my clothes inside it.
"Gee, can you help me with the scanner?" Frank said, when he came back. I helped him holding that in a way that only one person could carry it.
This time, while he wasn't there, I went to Mikey's room. When I got in it, he looked at me and laughed.
"Why are you wearing that T-shirt? It's so tight!" He said, between laughs.
"Why are you so stupid? Pack you things up. We're leaving today. There's no time to explain. Who are you sharing your room with?"
"Hum… hold on…" He grabbed a paper and read it "Robert Bryar."
"Hey Frank! Come here please" I yelled, because I noticed that he was already back. When he was close to me and my brother I asked "Do you know someone named Robert Bryar?"
"Bob? Yes, he's awesome! He can hear noises that are miles away and also the smallest sounds, like whispers and heart beatings. Why are you asking?"
"Because he's going to be Mikey's roommate. Could you go meet him and tell him that Mikey's coming and that he needs to put his things in the room?"
"Sure. Come back in one minute."
"You better pack up quickly."
I went back to my room and put the last clothes in my bag.
"Gerard?" Mikey called. In his room was Frank, with a tall, skinny boy with blond hair and blue eyes.
"This is Bob. He said he wanted to help Mikey. But I can't help both Gerard and Mikey. So I'll ask help to a friend of mine that can also teleport herself."
I turned to the boy and said "Hey, I'm Gerard and I can be invisible."
"I'm Robert, but you can call me Bob."
"Well, I'll let you pack up everything." And left Mikey with Bob, getting back to my room.
In a five minutes, I was ready to go.
"I'm ready Frank. Who was the girl you were talking about?"
"Her name's Charlotte, but everyone calls her Charley."
He grabbed my backpack and my bag for the shoes. I grabbed my suitcase and his hand. We appeared in the room of the mansion/school.
"Do you want to go back to your house?"
"Yeah, I need to leave a not to my mom."
When I got home I picked a piece of paper and wrote:
"Mom,
Me and Mikey left. This wasn't a safe place for me anymore and it wasn't fair for Mikey to wait two more days.
I'm not coming back. If you want me to be honest, I hate living here. I reminds me of… him.
I also have to say you were a good mom, to both of us. I was bullied everyday and you knew it. What did you do? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Mikey saw a friend die and you didn't even bother to take him to a doctor to see if he had some kind of trauma. I had to do it.
I don't love you. I never did and I never will. Maybe, in a the future, I'll be able to forgive you and we'll be a normal family. Until there, I leave you this letter.
Goodbye,
Gerard."
I put the letter inside an envelope and there I wrote "Mom", leaving it in my bed.
I went to Mikey's room and he was ready to go too. We grabbed each other's hands and appeared in the school/mansion. This time I knew I wasn't coming back to that house. No. My old life had just finished. A new chapter was about to begin.
Authors Note: Okay, if you don't know who Aang, Katara, Zuko and Toph are, THEN WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR TO SEE SOME "AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER"? that show is awesome... I added them because when I was super bored and I didn't want to write more, I see some A:TLA... so this is kind of a thank you to them.
Hum okay... if you didn't guessed, I based this fanfic in "X-Men" (I'm kind of addicted to the "X-Men" movies...). In the next chapter, I'll tell you more about their powers and stuff like that. You are going to looove the third chapter (the real frerard is coming :D)
xoxo
Ariana :)
