You're My Medication - Gerard Way Fanfic

Part 1

[okay crap name couldnt think of anything] STORY->

It’s a Friday night in May. It was a hot night for this time of year. I looked outside at the stars and the peaceful lake near to my house. Times like these were the only times I felt happy. You see, school is a nightmare, I have to try extra hard to even keep up with the people in the class (work wise), I get bullied, pushed into lockers, beaten up, everyday and I have no friends. Those last two things are like that because of who I am. I’m not super skinny and pretty, I dress different to everyone else and I have a different sense of humour. The main thing is because of the music I like; I like rock, metal core and others like that. This influences the way I dress: black or plain skinny jeans, band t-shirt and usually a few bracelets on my wrists to cover the unfortunate memories that lay there. Because I am usually wearing dark colours im apparently ‘an emo freak’ and ‘mental’. I don’t get it, just because I don’t hide under inches of makeup and wear slaggy clothes doesn’t mean im not a nice person. I generally think I am a nice person; I’d always help someone out who was troubled, even if they were one of my enemies. I live inBelleville,New Jerseywith my dad, my mom lives back inEurope. My parents split up 4 years ago, my dad got a job here and I moved with him. I love it here, apart from school it’s great. My name is Melanie, I have Black hair that flows down nearly at my waist, pale skin and green eyes. Im 16.

I run downstairs shouting to my dad, ‘hey dad! Im going for a walk, it’s really humid and I want some fresh air. I won’t go far and I’ll be back soon!’. ‘Okay!’ he yells back from the lounged position in front of the TV, watching some car show – boring.

I step out the door and fresh air hits my face and I let out a satisfied sigh. I follow the path to the park. It was a lovely night, you could see nearly all the stars. I look up to the Big Dipper and smile. Whenever im sad or im missing someone I look up at that star and I don’t know why but it makes me happy. Maybe the people at school are right and I am mental!

I get into the park. It’s dark and quiet which is half freaky half relaxing. I find a bench sit on it and start to gather my thoughts. The real reason I wanted to come here was for some alone thinking time. Yes, I can be alone at home but my dad can always interrupt and shout telling me to do something so I feel it’s better to get out here.

I am in the middle of a thought when im interrupted in the distance by shouting. I look over and see a guy on his own. I decide to get a little closer, I mean it cant harm me right? I recognise the boy, he has black shaggy hair that falls to just before his eyes, which were red and sore, his actual eyes were hazel. I knew him from school, he was in some of my classes, he was like me, no friends, lonely, called emo. His name is something likeGary(no) Gavin? (no) George? (nah) Gerald? Gerard? (that’s it!). I shout his name.

‘Gerard! Gerard is that you?!’ he notices me and shouts

‘Meggy?’ obviously drunk, I reply

‘Melanie, yes.’

‘What do you want?’ he spits back, geez whats he been drinking?

‘to help you’ I muttered, then said more clearly ‘Gimme your phone’ he fumbles in his pocket and gives it to me. I remember he has a younger brother Mikey, I call him.

‘Hello? Gerard?’

‘ hi, its Melanie, im in Gerard’s grade, i've found him in the park drunk. I was going to take him home but, then I remembered I have no idea where he lives and I doubt he’ll know while he’s like this…’ she says looking at him rolling on the floor like a little baby.

‘Shit!’ Mikey muttered under his breath. ‘Alright im coming, wait there I’ll be there in five.’ He says then hangs up. I put Gerard’s phone in my pocket so he doesn’t leave it in the grass or something.

I get Gerard up and sit him on the bench. I stare at him, i’ve never seen him up close, his eyes are pretty nice. I mean in general his eyes are nice I don’t like him, I couldn’t, he’d never even talk to me at school I wouldn’t work. I don’t like him. I tell myself and shake the though away.

I look up the path in the park and I see Mikey running. He was obviously in bed when I called by the look of his hair.

‘Thanks for finding him, and actually helping him, most people would probably leave him’

‘no problem, I couldn’t leave him there and go home I’d be worrying all night.’

‘well thanks…help me get him up’ I nodded and we walked back the way Mikey had ran from. Gerard’s left arm over my shoulder his right over Mikey’s. We walk back in silence for five minutes until I ask

‘its not far is it?’

‘Nope, only up this road’ he replied and we walked in silence until we got to their house.

Their house is massive! I try not to seem so amazed as I help get the little drunk fucker up the carved marble stairs.

‘Your house is beautiful Mikey’

‘Thanks, I don’t really like it I find its TOO nice, id be better off in some simple little flat’. I nod and follow Mikey’s directions to Gerard’s room. We lay him in bed and make sure he’s asleep.

‘Hey, do you mind if I come over tomorrow morning around 11 to just check he’s okay?’ I ask Mikey as we walk out the door.

‘yeah, sure that’s fine, our parents aren’t here anyway. Business trip.’

‘okay’ I say smiling.

‘sorry do you mind if you find your way out im just really tired and need to sleep’

‘that’s fine’ I watch Mikey’s door close, I look into Gerard’s room a last time. He looks cute in his sleep. What the hell was that? Im never the one to be liking how ‘cute’ someone is. Yet again I shake it off. I close his door and walk home, crawl into bed and fall straight asleep.
