In The End

Chapter 7

Omniscient POV

"H-How do you know? What are you talking about?" Frank asked calmly. "Well, to me, she looks just like you. Even acts like you sometimes. However I don't know for sure." Rachel admitted sadly. "What do you mean you don't know?" Frank asked getting a bit upset. "W-Where's Matt?" She asked Frank with tears in her eyes. "He got kicked out of the band because he kept screwing up on stage and starting fights with everyone. Please don't change the subject. Not when we're talking about something serious like the fact that I may have a daughter. Why did you leave that night? Did you know you were pregnant? Did you decide I wasn't be good enough to be a father? " Frank rattled off sadly. Rachel was scare and was debating whether or not to tell him then decided he had the right to know. Besides, it was too late to turn back now. "The night I was acting distant from you..." "Oh, you mean the night you left me for no reason?" "I did have a reason." She replied weakly. "Continue." "Well, that night after everyone left..." She took a deep breath and continued but couldn't look at him. Not yet at least. "Matt raped me." He looked at her with sympathy and sadness in his eyes. He quietly began talking again. "Oh Rach. I should've known you had a good reason for being distant. But, wait, why didn't you tell me and leave instead?" Frank asked trying to piece things together. "Because Matt said that if I ever told anyone, he'd come after me. And as much as I hate to say it, after I found out I was pregnant, I was glad I left. I never wanted to leave you but I knew that Matt would try and get to her if I would have stayed." She said.

There was a short silence. "So who do you think is Delilah's dad?" Frank asked Rachel calmly. "HOLY CRAP! FRANK! THIS CHICK LOOKS JUST LIKE YOU!" Gerard yelled from across the room. "Well I guess we know she's yours." Rachel giggled. He chuckled with her and pulled her into his arms. "I missed you so much, Rach. I never gave up on looking for you and I never stopped loving you. And now that I know I...we have a daughter I know that I love and want you even more than I already did." By the time Frank was finished saying all this, Rachel was in tears. "Honey, please don't cry. I didn't mean to make you sa.." He was cut off by Rachel kissing him with as much passion as she could muster at the moment. "I love you too, Frankie. I never stopped either. I haven't been with anyone since you." Rachel said breathlessly when they pulled away. Frank smiled and kissed Rachel again.
