Alice's POV:
"I can hear voices" Frank taps me.
I hug him "no not those voices, people or like people voices" he whispers.
"Okay you stay here Frankie" I mess up his hair and his bangs fall over his eyes as he grins. It looks so adorable. I smile as I open the door and close it.
Ray and Mikey are eating tacos while Tony draws in an art book. Gerard is sitting on the couch looking completely alone. I go over to comfort him.
As I walk over to him I notice he's doing something on his wrist. I smile as I watch him write destroya.
I sit down next to him bouncing to make sure he knows I'm there. I bumped him and his A has an extremely long tail.
He sighs and puts the lid back on the marker throwing it on the table.
He relaxes with his hand on the back of his head.
I greet him with a cute smile, he stares at me for a while looking really hurt and confused but he just rolls his eyes and looks away.
"Okay" I awkwardly say as I get up and walk back over to the bench.
"Hey, I haven't actually met you yet" Ray spouts as he puts his hand out. I shake his hand and smile.
"My name is Al-"
"Alice Jennifer" Ray interrupts me "I know, Gerard wouldn't stop talking about you" I look down.
Really...? Then why does he hate me so much?
Oh no! He saw me with Frank didn't he, he must have... I quickly shake myself out of the thought as I realize I'm about to start crying.
"You okay?" Ray asks me with a concerned look.
"I'm fine" I quickly answer.
Mikey gives me a weird look.
Oh no, did Gerard tell Mikey about us... How could he? Wait I don't even know if he did.
"Hi Mikey" I greet him, he has a slight smile but then he goes straight back to frowning as he finishes his taco and pours his coffee down the sink.
Gerard suddenly stands up and walks over to the bench. He smiles at Tony and she smiles back giving him his book and pencil case.
"I do actually like what you did there" he smiles pointing to Tony's drawing.
"No, it was all you but I thought that might be a nice way of shading it" Tony compliments his drawing and he grins at her.
"Well it looks dark, that's the main thing" he laughs and she joins.
Is he trying to make me jealous?
I feel my heart getting heavier, this is how I make him feel when I'm around Frank.
He chose to trust me, to put his faith in me and I crushed it repeatedly in front of him.
But I could never love Frank in the same way I love Gerard, I just couldn't do that to him. I love him in a different way then I love Frank.
Gerard has saved my life... Twice.
He risked everything for me so it really does break my heart when he acts like this around me. But he has every right to feel the way he does.
I'm so selfish! I only ever think of myself when I put Gerard through so much pain. Maybe it's better if I end it all now. Maybe it would better for both of us.

Tony's POV:
Gerard is smiling at me and complimenting my additions to his art work. I really think Gerard does like me, he shows all the signs of it... Is it possible that a celebrity would have a crush on me.
I mean I have dated Frank so maybe I do attract celebrities. Even Mikey smiled at me.
Alice looks really jealous as she stares at me and Gerard. She just nods in an understanding way.
Gerard looks down with a guilty expression as she walks outside with her hair covering her face.
Mikey looks over at her as she shuts herself out in the cold. It is winter.
Gerard sighs as he walks back over to the couch with his book and pencil case. I feel bad for him so I follow him. He narrows his eyebrows as I sit with him on the lounge. What happened to him anyway?

Frank's POV:
I'm alone again. In a darkened room. I look outside again but this time I see Alice, she's walking down the street. I don't blame her for wanting to get away from me.
She looks sad as she starts running away covering her face.
I want to follow her, where is she running to?
I quickly jump off the bed and put on my blue hoodie. I have to know where she goes, I have to get there fast, she took off running towards Francis ave.
I swing open the bedroom door and everybody in the room stares at me. Mikey jumped slightly and Ray looks at me with an almost happy expression. Gerard races over to me.
"Frank" he forces a smile and hugs me "I thought that you would be sleeping" he continues awkwardly.
What a welcome...
"I umm, yeah I needed some air" I reply opening the front door. I shiver slightly at the cold breeze.
Just as I step out of the truck Gerard grabs my arm.
"Be careful Frank" he warns "and take these" he hands me the ziplock bag of my medication "oh and this" he hands me a bottle of water.
I give him an annoyed look and snatch them.
"I'm only trying to help" he says raising his hands and biting his lip.
I roll my eyes and pull my hood over my face slamming the door behind me. I put the pills in my pocket and start running in the general direction of Francis ave.
I feel dizzy, and I start seeing dark figures chasing me. I bolt down three different alley ways hoping to lose sight of them. I see a girl crouched in a corner, crying. She has long black hair and she's wearing skinny jeans along with a red fleece top.
"Alice?" I ask tapping her shoulders. The girl won't turn to face me but she gets up.
Her boots are definitely Alice's.
"What?" She demands not turning around to me. I hear her cracked voice as she asks me again.
"What do you want?" She asks bitterly.
This time she turns around to me with eyeliner running down her cheeks.
"Oh Alice" I utter, wiping away her smudged make up. I rest my hand on her cheek and she looks away from me. I stop immediately as she starts crying some more.
This time she kicks the chain fence behind her and clings onto it turning away from me.
She leans into it crying loudly.
I want to help her but I feel nothing. What would have been my sympathy for her is replaced with laughter. Thank god it's all in my head. As Alice continues crying I continue smiling.
