Pay the price

When I woke up gerard wasn't in bed and I could hear mumbled talking from the kitchen. I stood up and walked quietly until I was stood in the hall out of sight from whoever was in there.
I was trying to make out the voices because I could definitely hear more than Mikey and Gerard.

"Gee really? You think that's a good idea?" Okay that voice was definitely Mikey talking.

"God I just.. I can't just go off of my gut about how he's going to act and that's what worries me." And there was Gerard's voice...

"Mr. Way the purpose of me here is to talk to you two isn't it?" A foreign voice said
"if Mr. Iero is having all these difficulties maybe you should send him to therapy before planning this all out. He might not want this. I mean the way you talk about him it seems like his opinion on things could go either way." Who the hell was this?

I heard gerard sigh

"gee I think he's right." Mikey said.

"Mikey we can't fucking afford therapy! we're spending the money on this and that's final. " geard said bitterly.
"I don't give a shit how he reacts. If he hates it then ill do what you said mikey, but I'm praying he'll like it..love it maybe."

"Gerard you're really gonna see his reaction before you leave? What if he only likes it in the moment and then afterwards he goes back downhill? He's scaring the shit out of Nathan every time he tries to talk to him, and he's putting you through hell daily." Mikey said

"Mikey I really don't want to loose him okay. I know in my head the right thing to do is leave and take Nathan away from him, but I can't. I know if I leave he will end up dead and I can't live with that. I want him in my life and this is my last shot I'm just hoping it's enough." Gerard said and by the tone of his voice it sounded like he was crying.
"thank you for coming and just go off what I gave you okay? Don't try and contact frank it may not be the best idea. The date is still tomorrow and just do what you do best. we'll be there on time for it I promise."

"Okay Mr. Way I'll see you tomorrow." The foreign voice said and I heard the front door shut.

"Wow gee...."

"Mikey just please..please at least support me no matter how it ends. I really need you to be there for me right now no matter how wrong you think I am." I heard Gerard say desperately.

"Gerard I'm going to support you no matter what and even though I'm not totally sure about this plan of yours I'll stick by your side."

"Thank you Mikey." Gerard whispered but still loud enough for me to hear. "I'm going to go see if he woke up yet, can you check on Nathan for me." Gerard asked.

Im guessing Mikey nodded because I didn't hear a verbal response. I ran back into our room before he saw me in the hallway and realized I'd been listening. I wasn't sure what the conversation was really about but I knew I wasn't meant to hear it.

I ran into the bathroom and turned on the shower. I quickly stripped myself of my clothes and sat down on the floor pulling my knees to my chest letting the hot water pour over my back.

It burned but it felt good, it was sort of a distraction. I needed a distraction from my mind but even the burning wasn't enough

I stillcouldn't help repaying the words I had heard in my head.
"We can't afford therapy."
"I know the right thing is to leave and take Nathan."
"he scares Nathan and puts you through hell daily."
"I know if I leave he'll end up dead and I can't live with that"

i started to cry, and I almost instantly felt light headed. I hadn't drank any water and crying wasn't helping me feel any better. I was already way past dehydrated but I didn't care. I just kept crying.

I tried to say quiet but the more I thought the louder and more heart wrenching my sobs became.

"Frankie?" I heard Gerard's voice from the other side of the curtain.

"G-go a-away please." I whispered. "D-don't come I-in."

"Frank what's going on are you okay?" He asked ripping the curtain open revealing me a crumpled mess on the floor.

"frank?"

I just sat there not knowing what to do or say. I didn't want to mention tomorrow because then he'd figure out I had eavesdropped and I wasn't totally sure myself that I wanted to know what was going to happen tomorrow.
