***Gerard's POV***


Why did she leave so suddenly? I hope everything is alright. She said she had to help her sister out with something but the way she said it leads me not to believe her. Maybe I should call her? No, I'll just let her do what she has to do.
I got kinda tired, so i sat on the couch and closed my eyes. I soon drifted off to sleep.

***2 Hours later***

"Hey Gerard! Wake up!" said Mikey

I slowly opened my eyes to see Mikey hovering over me.

"What do you want?" I sounded more annoyed than what I intended for

"I proposed to Alicia!"

"Oh that great Mikes! Good for you." I messed up his hair

"She loved the tattoo by the way."

"Oh that reminds me. Chrissi and I are dating."

"Ah that's awesome, dude! I know you were really head over heals for her since everyday all I hear about is 'Chrissi this' 'Chrissi that'. " he joked

"Shut up." I laughed, playfully hitting his arm.

"Alright, Gerard. As long as your happy. I'm gonna go get some sleep.. Goodnight man." he said while walking away

I laid back down on the couch and fell asleep.

****5 weeks later****

***Chrissi's POV***

I get up off the ground in even more pain than I was yesterday. I look in the mirror and see blood covering my nose, with bruises everywhere. Shit... Gerard will definitely see this. I can't do this anymore. I can't keep living like this. I just I can't keep living.....

I slip on a pair of leggings, converse, and a red V-neck T-shirt. I run into the bathroom and put on a shitload of foundation to cover up the bruises. I grab my sketch book and head out to Starbucks.

When I get there, I order my usual. A vanilla frappuccino. I sit down at a table and draw. Drawing always helps me clear my mind for a while. I have work in about 3 hours so my time is limited. My mind keeps running with different questions. 'Should I go back home and face my parents?' 'Should I just run away?' 'Should I just end it all?' Maybe the world would be better off without me. Gee and I have only been together for a little over a month so he'll get over it and find someone else. My parents don't give a shit whether I'm alive or not. Ali and Erik- Yes they'll be heart broken, but they'll get over it in about a month. That's it. I'm done.


***Gerad's POV***


I woke up at about 11am I got out of my bed and made myself pancakes. Mikey was probably up and out with Alicia, as usual. I saw my phone on the kitchen table and dialed Chrissi's number. I was worried about her. I wanted to make sure she was okay. The phone rang for what seemed like forever. Then came her voicemail. Shit. I called once again and still no answer. She's probably busy.

I waited a good hour or so before I tried calling her again. No. Answer.... I waited half an hour. No answer. I waited 3 hours. Nothing. It was now 4pm, and I'm panicking. Without thinking, I jump in my car and speed over to her house. Maybe I was over reacting about all of this. She was probably fine, but it's better safe than sorry.

I arrive at her house and knock frantically at the door. Nothing. I ring the doorbell. Still nothing. I go back home, and call her one more time. Voicemail.

'Okay Gerard just calm down'. 'She's fine. She'll call you later'. I had to repeat those words to myself over and over again. I knew something was up. I could feel it.
I try one last time to drive to her house. When I get there, I run to the door and knock on it. I twist the knob a bit, and the door creeks open.

It felt like a weight has just been lifted off my shoulders. She was home. I step in the house to see the TV playing on mute, and music blasting through speakers.

I call her name loud enough to hear over the speakers. Nothing. Maybe she's in her bedroom.
I walk up the stairs and find her dark purple door covered in posters. I knock on the door. Okay now this is fucking weird. I open the door half way and she's not there. I call her name so loudly, it would be impossible not to hear me. I see the bathroom lights are on so I knock on the door.

"Hey sugar? Its Gee. I've been trying to call you all day, but you haven't answered. Are you okay?" I ask nervously

"Baby?" I somewhat yelled.

Nothing

"Chrissi, If you're in there, answer this door right now. Please!" I screamed

"Chris I'm coming in."

I turn the knob. Fuck its locked.

I kick the door with my foot multiple times, each time harder and harder

Finally the door swings open..

Oh god no this can't be happening!
