"WHAT? NO! EWW!" Gerard said while trying to free himself or at least get his face out of the way. Raven sucked the spit back up and laughed. "That's nasty!" Gerard giggled. Mikey and Frank just stared at the two like they were aliens. Raven fell off Gerard and onto the floor laughing. Gerard was laughing, too. Mikey was suprised. Usually, Gerard didn't take well to strangers. Especially not this fast. He was happy that Gerard liked Raven, but a little jealous of the attention he was receiving from her. Raven pushed her bangs out of her face. Mikey stared in awe. She was so beautiful. The straight hair she had when they had met had gone sort of wavy because of her shower, her emerald eyes were free of makeup and her cheeks had some colour due to her little wrestle with Gerard.
"Who wants some breakfast?" Gerard said, making Mikey jump. Frank and Raven squealed with delight at the sound of the word. 'Dear God. They're the same person in different bodies' thought Mikey as he laughed to himself. That made him think even more about the incident with Frank. Did he like Frank back? Or did he like Raven? It was a tough choice because they were basically the same person. All of a sudden, Raven grabbed Mikey's hand and lead him to the kitchen, pushing all of his thoughts away.

The smell of bacon filled the air as Gerard made breakfast. Frank, Mikey and Raven sat at the table waiting. Frank and Raven sat, almost bouncing, in their chairs. Mikey giggled at the sight. Soon, Gerard has breakfast made and set it out on the table. Raven only grabbed one piece of bacon, then ran upstairs. Meanwhile, Frank was filling his plate up with pancakes, eggs and bacon. Mikey ate some toast and bacon, then ran up to his room where Raven had gone.

Raven had tried to shut the door when she ran up, but it didn't close completely. There was still some room for Mikey to look through. When he looked through the crack, he saw Raven sitting on his bed staring at the piece of bacon. She didn't see him staring at her. 'She ate 3 bowls of mac and cheese yesterday. Why isn't she eating now?' thought Mikey. He then watched her get up and throw the piece of bacon out in the garbage can beside his desk. Confused, Mikey knocked softly. He saw Raven jump.
"Come in," she said, sounding somewhat startled. Mikey walked in.
"Why didn't you have breakfast?" He said gently.

"Wasn't hungry," Raven replyed softly. Mikey raised an eyebrow. "I really wasn't!"

"You haven't eaten since 4:00 yesterday afternoon. You have to be hungry."

"But I'm not! Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to get changed."

"Not until you eat something," Mikey left the room. He returned soon with a plate full of food. He handed it to Raven and sat down on his bed, watching her. Raven stared at the plate of food.

"Why," she said curtly.

"Because you haven't eaten since yesterday and you're skinny enough as it is," Mikey continued to stare at her. She stuffed a piece of bacon into her mouth mockingly. He raised an eyebrow. "Continue please," he teased with a smile. Raven soon devoured the plate of food quickly and stared at Mikey with cheeks full of food. He giggled. She swallowed her food and grabbed his hand. They walked downstairs and back to the kitchen where Frank and Gerard were sitting at the table and talking.

"Where did you two go?" Gerard questioned, "Upstairs making out?" he made kissy noises and puckered his lips. Frank flinched. Mikey and Raven blushed.

"What? No!" they said in unicent.  Gerard laughed but Frank just faked a smile. The moment was inturrupted by a loud crash of thunder from outside. Raven squealed and grabbed Mikey's hand with an iron grip. All four of them looked out the window to see rain and hail heaving down from the sky. Raven whimpered.

"It's ok, hun," Gerard crooned. "Well, I'm gonna go hang out with Angela," he smiled as he grabbed his coat and left the house.

"Who's Angela?" Frank asked. Mikey looked at his watch. 10:00.

''His girlfriend," Mikey answered, "What do you guys wanna do?" Frank and Raven shrugged. After Frank finished his breakfast, they watched bad horror movies for the remainder of the day. Raven ended up falling asleep on Mikey's shoulder while Frank rested his head in Mikey's lap and also fell asleep. Mikey chuckled and checked his watch. 6:00pm. Why wasn't Gerard home yet, he wondered. Raven woke up and rubbed her eyes.

"Gerard home yet?" she asked groggily. Mikey shook his head. She rested her head back on his shoulder and closed her eyes. "Oh," she muttered. Mikey resumed watching whatever was on TV until Frank and Raven woke up again. He checked his watch again. 8:00. Where the fuck is Gerard? All of a sudden, the door swung open loudly and a drunken Gerard stumbled in the door. Raven and Frank shot up and all three of them looked at him.

"Gerard?" Raven muttered. Mikey and Frank looked terrified.

"Raven, go into my room and lock the door. Don't come down, no matter what you hear. Ok?" Mikey whispered to her. She looked at him confused but obeyed. She got up off the couch and slowly walked to the stairs but was stopped by Gerard grabbing her shirt and pulling into her an unwilling kiss. Her eyes widened and she tried to push him off of her, but he was much stronger and held her in place. He snaked his arm around her waist and used his other to hold the back of her head. Raven reached up and slapped him as hard as she could. Gerard smirked and looked at her. His sopping wet hair hung in front of his face and his eyes were bloodshot. His breath stunk of beer and whiskey.

"Get off her!" cried Mikey . Gerard's head swung over to look at Mikey. Raven struggled in his arms but he held her tightly. Gerard laughed.

"Oh.. Mmmikey. Always trying to b-be the..hero," he slurred as he let go of Raven, who ran up to Mikey's room and locked the door like she was told. Frank ran to Mikey's side.
"Why are you drunk? I thought you were with Angela," asked Frank.


"Angela? Ooooh. ANGELA! Cheating bitch," Gerard mumbled.

"I think you need to lay down, Gerard," Mikey suggested softly. Gerard's reply was a punch to Mikey's jaw.

"And I think you need to shut the fuck up and stop telling me what to do!" roared Gerard. Mikey fell to the ground and clutched his jaw. Frank dropped down beside him. Gerard pulled Frank up and threw him against a wall and pinned his arms up by his head. He leaned in close to Frank's face.

"Don't think I didn't.. see you and Mmmmikey, Fraankie," he wispered. Frank's heart was racing and his chest was heaving. Gerard snickered. His hands were wrapped tightly around Frank's wrists and suddenly, he felt something that wasn't flesh or Frank's sweater. He pulled Frank's sleeve down no matter how much Frank screamed at him not to or tried to free his wrist. Gerard's eyes narrowed at the sight of the rusty gauze.

"What's this?" he smirked as he unwound the gauze. Frank's eyes were overflowing with tears.

"Gerard... no.." he whispered. The gauze fell to the floor, revealing Frank's wrist.
"Fucking pathetic," said Gerard as he threw Frank to the floor and went down to his room. Frank scrambled to rewrap the gauze and help Mikey. Mikey was lying on the floor, unconcious.

"Son of a bitch," Frank muttered to himself. He dialed 911 and waited. At the sound of sirens, Raven ran down the stairs. She stopped as she reached the bottom stair and looked at what had happened. Frank was cupping Mikey's bloody face is his hands and crying while whispering things like: "Mikey please wake up", "Everything's going to be ok".

"What happened?" Raven stared in awe. Frank looked up.

"This is the kind of shit that happens every fucking time Gerard gets drunk," he said, tears rolling down his face.

"Why was he drunk? I thought he was with his girlfriend."

"He said Angela was a 'cheating bitch' so I'm assuming that he walked in on her cheating with someone and got drunk to ease the pain or something."

Paramedics barged in.
