The Only Hope For Me Is You (Gerard Way Fanfic)

Chapter 22

Gerard's P.O.V.

I sang Demolition Lovers to her, and made her cry.  I hugged her tight until she stopped crying, then I spoke up too her. "Brooklyn, that song is about you."

"How is it about me, Gerard? You wrote it way before you even met me, there isn't a possible way its about me." She tried to argue.

"Brook, remember you best friend that you met through the internet and talked to through MySpace all those years ago?" I asked her.

"Who? Amethyst Cardinal? The one who just completely stopped talking to me after being there for almost 4 years? I doubt that was you, Gerard." She said.

"Don't doubt that, because it was me. The reason I had stopped talking to you was so I could go on tour. And on that tour, I saw you. We played a gig in your hometown. I wanted to come up to you after the show but I wasn't allowed to." I explained.

"But how did you know it was me? Just forget question, I remember sending you selfies and voice recordings." She said. "I just can't believe you remember me. Why did you use a fake name, anyhow?"

"I used a fake name due to MCR's rising fame, I didn't want a lot of people to know it was me. But everything you told me, all the pictures you sent, made me fall in love with you. And after we went on tour, I missed you more than I expected, and I wrote that song about you. Then, when I knew we were coming to your town, that was the first gig I ever played it at. I saw you in the crowd, your favorite band, playing a song they wrote about you. You cried. I remember it all." I told her, calming her. 

"I remember that night. But i really should get going, we've been sitting in here for almost 20 minutes." She said, making us both laugh.

"Yea, I guess you should be going. But one more thing-" I cut her off before she could speak. I kissed her one last time before she left for what would seem like forever. She kissed back, and we parted not soon after. 

"Sorry, I needed to get one last kiss to remind me of the feeling of you touch." I admitted.

"That's completely okay. I understand. It felt nice too." She said before i got out of her car. I hugged her one last time before I went inside and she left. 

Brook's P.O.V.

After I left his house I hurried home and cranked up the radio, only to have one of his songs on, which wasn't helping my problem. I was trying to get home before I started crying, but I knew it wasn't going to work, as I have to drive for 5 hours. As Helena played the tears started, so I just wiped them away and kept driving down the highway, after putting a Green Day CD in.

~***~

After arriving home I grabbed a shower and went straight down to my room, to see I got a text from Gee. 

G: Hey did you get home okay?

B: yea but as I was coming home one of your songs came on the radio and i began to cry, so I put a cd in.

G: oh okay. well love im going to bed i have a long day tomorrow, night.

B: im heading to bed as well, goodnight. 

That's how our conversation ended once again. I shut my phone off and went to sleep. 

Gerard's P.O.V.

I was woken up by Mikey, he told me to get up and ready so mom could drive me to the bus station so I could go to New York and go to my art school. I threw on a Metallica t-shirt and blue jeans with my combat boots, and lightly lined my eyes with eyeliner before going upstairs where my mom had greeted me with breakfast, which consisted of sausage and eggs and toast, with a glass of orange juice. 

"Breakfast is great, mom. Thank you." I said, before going downstairs and grabbing my bags. I tossed my bookbag on my back, and grabbed my two duffel bags and went to the car to wait for my mom to come so we can leave. She came not long after I came out, and we got going.

"There's a whole bus full of kids going to your school, so look for bus 41, that's the bus you're gonna want to get on. Here's all of your information." My mom said, handing me a packet. I grabbed it and looked out the window for the rest of the drive.

As soon as we got to the bus stop, my bus had just stopped there, so I grabbed my stuff and got on, heading straight for the very back of the bus, where I sat and plugged my headphones in my ears, and stared out the window until I fell asleep.

I was woken up suddenly by someone tapping my shoulder, I was in Pennsylvania. I looked over to see who was tapping me. After he noticed he got my attention he began to speak. "Hey, I'm Jimmy Urine, do you mind if I sit by you?" He asked me.

"Yea, sure, I'm Gerard Way. But please call me Gee. Your name sounds familiar, as if you're from a band." I replied. 

"Yea, I'm from a band called Mindless Self Indulgence, you sound pretty familiar as well, are you in a band?" He asked me. 

"Yes, I am, I'm from My Chemical Romance, I'm the lead singer." I told him.

"Cool! I'm the lead singer of MSI too!" He said, way too excitedly. 

"Cool, I'm gonna put my headphones back in now, so I guess I'll see you around." I said to him. He nodded and put my headphones in and fell back asleep, and stayed asleep for the rest of the ride to the school.
