My Dad Is....Who? [My Chemical Romance Fan Fiction]

Chapter 3

School was almost over. I just needed to get through one more class and I'm home free. Though my 4th block is actually my favorite class, English/ Literature. I love reading and writing stories is even more fun, so it's pretty much an easy A for me.

I walked into the classroom and took my seat.

"Alright class, before we start today, I just wanna go over your new project." Mrs. Cunningham said, walking in the room. "All of you will make a family tree."

"Isn't that for kindergartners?" a boy named Rick asked.

"Yes, I'm sure most of you have done a family tree in the past, but you didn't let me finish. After you make the family tree, I want you to write an essay about you're family and you will all present it in class on Monday." Mrs. Cunningham replied.

Everyone in the class groaned, well everyone except me. I was actually pretty excited about this project. Who knows, maybe it will help me figure out if I'm related to Gerard Way or not. This is going to be so cool.

I finally got home and found a note on the kitchen table, it was from my mom. It seems that she will be working late...again. I threw the note away and went in my parents room, looking for some photo albums. I found one in the closet, but it only had pictures of me when I was younger. I searched the rest of the house and found nothing. Where could all of our family pictures have gone? Do we even have any? The only place I didn't look was my room (which I know for sure they're not in there, considering I'm in my room like 24/7) and the attic.

How much you wanna bet that all the photos are up there? My mom won't be home for at least two hours and my dad is on a business trip for the week, so I can hurry up and find the pictures I need and get out of there really quick.

I grabbed the string and pulled. The door made a creaking noise as it came down. I climbed the steps into a really dark room, I couldn't see my own hand. I searched for a light switch on the wall, but all I touched were spider webs....ew. I managed to see a sting dangling from the ceiling from the light that came from the attic door which was still opened. I walked towards it and turned the light on. I was surrounded by millions of boxes. I have no idea where to begin.

Time went by as I looked through box after box, all I found in them were antic collectibles and old toys. Where the hell are the photo albums? I was ready to give up when I saw a box labeled "memories of the past", jackpot. I opens the box and found millions of pictures. There were pictures of my Grandparents, aunts and Uncles and their kids when they were little. I picked out all the photos I needed and was about to put the box away when one photo caught my eye. It was a picture of a little girl and boy, they looked like they were ether five or six years old and they were sitting on a swing set. I turn the picture over and saw writing, it said "Katie Caldwell and Gerard Way -1985". Wait, what? Gerard Way? So if they knew each other when they were kids, I'm a related to him or is he just a friend. Did something happen between them?
