48 hours missing.

Two Days.

Gerard had shut down.

He wanted to go outside and search every single building in New Jersey but Mikey and Ray prevented him from doing so.

They both knew he was dangerously close to snapping mentally.

He was on a leash.

Not literally,but one of them would have to be around him at all times.

Mikey and Ray split the night into two shifts so one of them was always awake to keep a eye on Gerard.

The sharp objects had been removed from the house and the only time Gerard wasn't in their sight was when he was in the bathroom.

Even then he knew they were timing him.

If he was in there to long they would flip out,thinking he had managed to find something to harm himself with.

But Gerard had no intentions of doing such a thing.

Frank was missing for fucks sake!He didn't have time to sit around slicing his wrist or attempting to end his life.

All he could do now was wait.

He kept his eyes staring ahead blankly repeating the questions from the cops in his mind.

"So the last time you saw Frank was yesterday when he left for work,correct?"

"Yes."

"Was he acting any differently?"

"No."

"Does he have any enemies?Anybody that would want to hurt him?"

Gerard paused a moment to think about this.

"Not really....not in four years..."

But the more Gerard sat staring blankly at the wall in front of him,the more he thought he was wrong.

His mind was wandering down a dark path.

"C'mon,think about it Gerard!Who would want Frank hurt?"

Gerard groaned softly and looked at the arm of the couch where Frank was perched staring down at him with piercing eyes.

Of course it wasn't really Frank.

It was a hallucination.

"I don't know,"Gerard whispered so Ray wouldnt hear him from the kitchen.

"Bullshit.Think you fucking idiot!" 'Frank' hissed glaring at him.

"I don't know!"

'Frank' narrowed his eyes and crossed his arms as they stared at each other.

"Who wanted Frank gone before?"

"...My mom...."

"Exactly!What do you think she would have done when she found out he was back in town?Back in your life?"

"Take him away again,"Gerard gasped in realization.

'Frank' nodded frantically,happiness lighting in his eyes.

"She knows what's happened to him,"

"Go Gerard!Frank might not have much time left!"

Gerard didn't need to be told twice.

He was on his feet in a flash,silently rushing to the front door.

He knew Ray would freak out when he figured out he had gotten out,but he didnt care at this point.

He knew where Frank was and thats all that mattered.

Determination pulsing throughout his veins,Gerard clicked the front door open and ran out into the world.
