Y/N POV



The days seemed to run together. It's been two weeks since the accident. Since I lost my baby. Since Gerard entered this comatose state. Two weeks, but every day has been the same. Wake up, nibble on whatever is brought to me, shower in the room's personal bathroom, and sit with him. Sometimes I'll sketch, but then I give up on it and go back to watching him.


The boys visited every day along with their girlfriends, occasionally. My mom visited every morning as well. Mikey was here with me the most, though. There was some good news! Gerard was breathing on his own, so the tube was removed. He wasn't as pale as before either. He was going to pull through.


Today is different. My mom had already left to go to work, Mikey was down in the cafeteria, and Frank was here with his guitar, Ray with a mini recorder. I wanted to try something. I found a song that was written by Gee in our songbook. Frank said he originally wrote it for the wedding, but said it had too much of a dark undertone for it. So Frank was going to play the guitar and do backups while I sang it to Gee in hopes that he would wake up.


Ray pressed the record button and I spoke for a minute.


"This song was written by Gerard Arthur Way, my husband, who is currently lying unconscious in the hospital bed in front of me. I love you, Gee." Frank began strumming the beginning chords, leading to the first verse.


So Long to all my friends,

Every one of them met tragic ends.

With every passing day, I'd be lying if I didn't say

That I miss them all tonight

And if they only knew what I would say if I

Could be with you tonight

I would sing you to sleep

Never let them take the light behind your eyes

One day I'll lose this fight

As we fade in the dark

Just remember You will always burn as bright

Be strong and hold my hand

Time becomes for us, you'll understand

We'll say goodbye today

And I'm sorry how it ends this way

If you promise not to cry,

Then I'll tell you just what I would say if I

Could be with you tonight
