*Gerard's POV*

---

"Gerard, Frank, dinner!" Called Frank's mom-No, Linda. Gotta remind myself.. aha.

Frank looked at me, and I knew what he was asking. Just by the look, he gave me. But I felt bad, I had to get home. Before my mom would get a bit angry with me getting home so late on a Sunday night.

"Frank, I c-can't. My mom, she'll be angry if I don't get home soon.. Maybe tomorrow? I could sleep over here tomorrow?" We agreed, saying our goodbyes. I did say goodbye to Linda too, but soon after I got out of Frank's home. I waved at him, looking sad at me. I just ignored it.. I sighed, running-actually running three blocks to my house.

As soon as I got inside my home, Mikey rushed to me. "There you are! Mom was starting to get worried." He added in, "And not mad for once." I nodded my head, then went, into our kitchen. Where mom was finishing up dinner,

"Hey, uh mom?" I paused, making a quick excuse. "I ate dinner at Frank's home, and I was wondering if I could skip it here?" Fuck.. I made it sound like a question, but she still believed me.

"Okay Gerard, just eat some left overs. If you're hungry later." I told her okay and such.

I went into my room, locking my door. Okay.. maybe I lied about not having a blade in my room... Um.

I have a blade in my school bag.... Yeah, I lie a lot.. Whatever though..

I grabbed my blade out of my school bag and since I didn't have a long sleeve shirt on, I just pressed the blade against my skin.. Feeling the skin rip apart.. Just letting the pain sink in... But then again, feeling no pain......

A few minutes later I realized what I did... I haven't cut myself in, how long?? Um, multiple days? And I just did it..? Wow Gerard. Pathetic.

Just, pathetic.. I examined my left arm, where I hurt myself.. Is it considered hurting yourself, when you don't feel barely any pain?

I went into my bathroom, getting a dark, hand towel.

To my luck, there was a dark tan-ish towel. I cleaned up my left arm, making sure there'll be no trace of evidence on my arm. I made the towel a bit wet, to wipe the red liquid off of my arm.
