"He woke up, which is a good sign." the doctor explained to everyone who was now back in the room. "He fell back asleep because of the pain meds, but he should wake up again tomorrow."

"Thank you." Mrs. Way said.

The doctor nodded and left the room. 

"I leave for a week and all this happens." Bob said, sitting in a chair next to Gerard.

Frank chuckled. "Ain't that what happens? You leave and everything happens."

"At least Dustin and James got sent to reform school." Mikey said, sitting next to Bob, Ray sat across from them by Frank. 

"I'm just glad Gee's going to be okay." Ray said. 

The other three nodded along with him. 

An hour later, all the parents came in and told their children that it was time to leave, and that they could come back in the morning. 

They all nodded and followed their parents out of the hospital.

Mikey, Ray, Frank and Bob were all sitting in Gerard's room as their parents were in the cafeteria having lunch. 

They were talking among themselves when they heard a groan. 

They all looked over to see Gerard's eyes flutter and then open.

"Gee?" Mikey asked, moving over closer. 

"Mikey?" Gerard asked hoarsely. 

Mikey smiled happily while pressing the nurse call button. 

"Shh. Don't talk yet." Ray said, also moving closer. 

A second later a nurse and the doctor walked into the room. The nurse went to Gerard's side and started giving him ice chips to suck on.

"It's nice to see you awake Gerard. Now I would like to ask you some questions. 

Gerard nodded. 

"Do you remember what happened to you?"

Gerard nodded and told him the story.

The doctor nodded, "Okay a few more."

They went through five or six more questions before the doctor announced that Gerard, in fact, did not have a concussion or any memory loss. 

After a mandetory check up the nurse and doctor left the room leaving the five friends to talk.

Mikey instantly pulled his brother in for a hug. "I'm so glad you're okay." 

As he pulled back, Ray came in for the hug. "I'm glad my little brother is okay." Gerard's eyes widened, never knowing that Ray thought of him as family like that. 

Frank was next to hug him. " You better be okay. I need my pranking bro back."

Next was Bob. He didn't say anything but he didn't need to. Gerard knew how happy he was that he was okay. 

"Dustin and Jason are in reform school." Mikey said.

Gerard looked over to him shocked. "Really?"

Ray grinned evilly. "Really." 

Gerard looked around, trying to see if someone was pranking him. When he realized that no one was he started crying. 

"What's wrong?" Mikey asked frantically.

"They're gone? They're really gone?" Gerard asked hopefully.

"They're really gone." Frank said happily.

That's all it took for Gerard to break down into tears. 

But not of pain, or sadness. Of happiness. 

He was free.

Free from the abuse and the hate and the threats. 

Free

WOW IT'S OVER

that was fun to write

i would like to thank all of you have who have read this from the beginning and not left halfway through. I know you're out there somewhere.

now for a serious note.

If you're being bullied in any way, shape or form, please tell someone. I don't like it when people hurt others because it's so unnecessary and cruel. A teacher, a parent, a counselor, someone who can help you. I don't want any of you to be hurt or be getting hurt. So help yourself and go and get help. I love you all, everyone of you. 

Stay safe
