** Liz's POV **
I walked up to the roof of our venue... alone. The venue was still empty since the concert would start in about five hours. I sat down at the edge of the top of the building and let my feet dangle. I leaned back against my arms and tilted my head back to look at the sky. It was so bright and beautiful... It was quite the opposite of how I felt at the moment. I felt worthless and stupid.
Last night, I desperately wanted Gerard to come after me when I left but...he didn't. I couldn't understand. Didn't it mean that he still loved me, knowing that he still remembered our song and knowing that he actually sang it with me? Why didn't he come after me? Was I really that worthless to him?
I look down at the ground and saw that it was a high way up. I remembered the last time I was looking down at the ground from the roof of a building and it was that same day when Gerard and I first became friends. It was when all of us became friends. I was supposed to jump but he stopped me. He gave me a reason not to jump.
But now, there was no one to stop me. There was no one to be my reason not to jump. In fact, I have every reason to do it now than I did at that time. Maybe Gerard would be happier without having to deal with me anymore. Maybe it would make it easier for Andy to forget about me and what i've done to him. Maybe all of my friends would be happier without me. Maybe this was the solution all along.
Just one more step...
" Never thought i'd see you in a place like this again, Lizzie." a voice chuckles from behind me.
I shoot my head back and see that it's Frank. He was walking towards me without any sign of disappointment on his face and I was relieved at this.
" I thought so too." I say, sighing as I turned my gaze back towards the distance.
Frank sat down beside me, making his feet dangle as well.
" Then tell me, why are you here all alone?" he asks me, looking at me with worry.
" You should go back to the others, Frank. I want to be left alone..." I say, looking down at the ground.
Frank follows my gaze and shifts closer to me.
" Don't think I don't know what you're planning to do. Can you just think about what you're doing for a moment?" he asks, glancing at me seriously.
I glance at him for a second then back to the ground. I thought for a moment just like he told me to and then I realized how weak I was at this moment. I was letting my weakness take over me and it was embarrassing. I dig my face in my hands and sigh in frustration.
" I'm sorry, Frank. It's just that I felt like everyone was against me after what happened between Andy and I. It wasn't only you guys, it was also all those fans who are hating on me for what I did. Losing Gerard for the second time didn't help either. I was just so pressured and I just felt so alone and hopeless. You must think i'm so stupid right now." I say, looking up from my hands.
Surprisingly, Frank pulled me into his arms which made me feel like a lot of weight was pulled off my chest.
" Liz, don't let them get to you. You shouldn't care about what anybody else thinks. I'm no longer disappointed in you because I understand why you chose to do it. After what happened two years ago, I couldn't blame you for trying to forget so badly. Never forget that we're here for you, Liz. Even if it doesn't seem like it, we're here for you. . " Frank says, stroking my hair and rocking me back and forth.
I was actually so glad that Frank was here for me right now. I was thankful that he stopped me from what I was about to do. He's just like a brother to me and i've always known that I could count on him.
" Thanks, Frankie. You know, Im not trying to be rude but I was actually expecting someone else to stop me from jumping off this building. " I say, smirking at him.
" Well i'm sorry to disappoint you. I think that 'someone' still has to come to his senses first." Frank says, getting up and pulling me up along with him.
" Hopefully... Thanks again, Frank. If you wouldn't have come, I would've been dead by now." I say, smiling up at him gratefully as we walked back down the building.
" No problem. Just promise you won't try to do it ever again. I don't think any of us would survive without you here. Especially that special someone." Frank says, messing my hair up.
"What are you talking about? Gerard wants nothing to do with me. I think he made that clear. " I say, crossing my arms and sighing sadly.
" Whatever you say, Liz." Frank says, grinning at me slyly.
Someone clearly knows something I don't.
