Late dawns and early sunsets, just like my favourite scenes
Then holding hands and life was perfect, just like up on the screen
And the whole time while always giving
Counting your face among the living...

I looked out over the park across the street. I saw a couple holding hands and laughing happily. They looked like a couple right out of a romantic movie, but I was a character right out of a horror movie.
“Steph?” Gerard called from down the hall. I looked up silently, before turning back to the window again. “Steph! What are you doing? I told you to come when I call you.” he spat. I looked up at him and saw the pure hatred in his eyes as he looked down upon my face. I couldn't deny it any longer.
I wanted to die.
“Answer me whore!” he spat, drawing a hand back and slapping me across the face with it. His ring cut a deep channel along my cheek and I felt the blood run down to my chin. He smirked and stretched his hand out “Come with me” he commanded and I shook my head sitting still in my place
“No” I choked out and he scowled
“Do what I say” he said and I looked at him with disgust
“Im not a fucking toy, Gerard. Im a fucking human being and I have my own life” I spat and he slapped me again
“Go to my room. Wait there until I come” he said and I shook my head
“You don't fucking get it do you? I am not going to do what you tell me to do” I stated and he laughed
“Then I'll make you, Stephanie” he walked over, grabbed my wrist and dragged me to his room, throwing me inside and locking the door behind him. I collapsed onto the floor and exploded in pent up tears. I wanted to hide in a hole and never come out. I wanted to die...


Up and down escalators, pennies and colder fountains
Elevators and half price sales, trapped in by all these mountains
Running away and hiding with you
I never thought they'd get me here
Not knowing you'd change from just one bite
I fought them all off just to hold you close and tight...

Gerard came into his room to find me asleep on the floor
“Get up, bitch” he said, kicking my leg. I woke up and groaned in pain. He tugged down his pants and boxers then took my head in his hand and shoved my mouth down his erected cock. He moaned and groaned until he came, filling my mouth. He lifted me onto his bed and I lay there numb as he began to assault my body to fit his perverted needs. This was nothing out of the ordinary. I would lie there while he did things to me that made me slowly lose my mind and become emotionally detached.
I awoke the next morning covered in bruises and aches and went to cook him breakfast.
“Steph? Babe?” came his voice from behind me and I turned to see what he wanted “I... I just wanted you to know that... There's someone moving in with us... I've already moved all your things out of your room so she can have that one. So I want you to be a nice hostess or just stay out of my way as I... Let her settle” he said slowly and I gave him a disgusted look
“Your a sick fuck, you know that?” I asked, he smirked and laughed
“Im your life” he said and I snapped
“And you've ended others” I spat, storming out of the room and slamming the door to the bathroom behind me, locking it and taking my now familiar spot in the corner...

But does anyone notice?
But does anyone care?
And if I had the guts to put this to your head
But would anything matter if your already dead?
And well should I be shocked now by the last thing you said?
Before I pull this trigger,
Your eyes vacant and stained...

There was a knock on the door and I pasted a plastic smile on my face before opening it to reveal a cute blonde haired girl in the doorway
“Hey! Im Eliza, Im at the right place right? Your Steph?” she asked and I smiled, already knowing the fate for this poor girl
“Yeah, Im Steph, come in” I smiled, trying not to cry. This pretty innocent young girl will soon be driven to insanity and may well end her own life and there was little I could do to stop it “GERARD!” I yelled and he came around the corner
“Eliza” he smiled in greeting, coming up to greet her. I felt sick.
“Excuse me” I mumbled, running to the bathroom making it just in time to spill the contents of my stomach into the toilet bowl. I sat there until I heard Gerard coming to find me. I knew that if I didn't come I would be sorely punished later. I left the bathroom and stood before him. He put a hand on my cheek, that was covered in such a think layer of cover up and foundation to hide the cut he had given me
“Are you going to be a good girl?” he asked and I nodded, trying not to cry again “You know what will happen if your not” he said and I nodded again. I went to the kitchen and cooked some pasta for our lunch
“Wow, Steph, this is fantastic” smiled Eliza
“Yeah it is” smiled Gerard. I sat there prodding the pathetic pile of food with my fork until I excused myself to the bathroom. I splashed my face with cold water and sat down in my corner. I heard a door down the hall close which I assumed to be mine... I mean Eliza's. I sat there just listening to the cars on the street, the music coming from a house down the road and the children playing in the park; I thought about my life and how I wanted it to end and I thought about the poor girl in my old room who thought she was getting free accommodation with a perfectly normal couple...

But does anyone notice?
But does anyone care?
And if I had the guts to put this to your head...
But would anyone notice if your already dead?
And in saying you loved me,
Made things harder at best,
And these words changing nothing
As your body remains...

I unlocked the door and made my way down the hall way to Gerard's room, which was now also to be my room. I opened the door to find Gerard sitting on his bed
“Oh, it's just you” he said
“What's the supposed to mean?” I asked
“Im just disappointed that it's no one interesting” he sighed. I gave him a disgusted look and went out to the living room, where I found Eliza reading her book
“Hey” I smiled
“Hey” she greeted, sweetly
“So, tell me about yourself” I said, sitting next to her
“Oh, uh, well Im a college graduate, I grew up in New York and I love long walks on the beach in the sunset. What about you?” she asked and I laughed, not knowing what to tell her
“Im from Trenton, I recently lost my job and I like having Ice-cream in the park” I laughed and so did she
“So have you and Gerard been together long?” she asked and I choked on my own saliva
“No... We aren't... No. We're not together” I stammered
“Oh... Really?” she said, sounding hopeful
“Yeah... Um... Eliza be careful around him, okay? He may seem so sweet now but in the future... Just don't let him hurt you, okay?” I clarified and she nodded, looking slightly confused
“Hey” came Gerard's voice from behind us. I jumped in surprise and quickly stood, leaving the room and going into Gerard's now empty one. I sat down and heard their voices talking in the living room
“So are you settling in well?” came Gerard's voice
“Well I really only got here a few hours ago” Eliza replied
“Would it help if I did this?” Gerard asked and I assumed he was kissing her
“Gerard... Are you sure?” Eliza asked
“Im as sure as I will ever be” he said. I heard footsteps and the door to Eliza's room close, sighing I reached over to the bedside table where my iPod sat and put the headphones in my ear, playing my music as loud as I could have it. After an hour of sitting there the music suddenly stopped and I looked at the image on my screen 'No battery. Please plug into power' I sighed and put it on the bedside table...

And there's no room in this hell,
There's no room in the next,
And our memories defeat us,
And I'll end this direst.

“Gerard! Gerard!” I heard Eliza scream from the other room and felt like I was going to be sick again. I heard them both crying out in ecstasy before silence fell, while I just sat there on Gerard's bedroom floor. The door creaked open and He came in, wearing only his boxer shorts
“Lie on the bed” he ordered
“Why?” I asked and he smirked
“You know exactly why” he sighed
“Do you ever get enough?” I asked, disgusted
“Lie on the bed” he repeated
“What if I don't want to?” I asked and he glared at me
“Then I'll make you” he threatened and I sighed, standing and lying on his bed “Take your clothes off” he commanded. I did what he said and he observed as I removed my clothing. I lay back, naked and he reached out lazily and slid a finger into my opening, making me gasp. He removed his finger and put his hands on his hips
“Sit up” he commanded and I did so, hanging my legs off the edge of the bed. He removed his boxers and stood there, placing his tip on my lips “You know what to do” he said and I opened my mouth, letting him do the work. He moved his hips back and forth, and I trailed my tongue along his length as he did so. He came quickly and I swallowed, lying back so that he could do what he wanted. He straddled my hips and plunged into me, thrusting in and out. He came the same time that I did and he lay down next to me, wrapping his arm around my body
“Get off me, Gerard” I spat and he smirked
“What are you gonna do?” he asked and I wriggled out of his reach and slid out the other side of the covers
“Im going” I said
“Where?” he asked
“The bathroom” I said
“Did I say you could?” he asked
“I don't need your permission, Gerard” I spat and he smirked
“Well I don't want you telling my little friend about our time just now, do I?” he asked in a patronising tone
“Why would I want to tell her?” I asked
“I don't know how your weird little mind works, all I know is that you can only do what I say you can do and right now, you cannot leave this room” he said and I pulled on my pants and a shirt
“Really? Watch me” I spat, opening the door and walking into the hallway
“Get that hot little ass of yours back in here, Stephanie” he commanded, but I ignored him, going straight to my bathroom corner...

But does anyone notice?
But does anyone care?
And if I had the guts to put this to your head...
But does anything matter if you're already dead?
And should I be shocked now by the last thing you said?
Before I pull this trigger,
Your eyes vacant and stained...
And in saying you loved me made this harder at best
And these words changing nothing as your body remains
There's no room in this hell
There's no room in the next...

I sat in the corner alone for what felt like ages until I heard pounding on the door
“Stephanie, I know your in there” Gerard yelled from the hall outside
“Go away!” I yelled
“Get out here right this instant, Stephanie” He yelled
“You can't control me, Gerard” I yelled, my anger flaring
“Do what I tell you or you will be sorry” he threatened and I laughed
“You can't scare me with your threats, Gerard” I yelled back at him. He kept yelling abuse at me and I knew that if I went out there now I would feel more pain that I had ever felt before. I looked at the cabinet above the sink and knew what I had to do. I stood and opened the door to reveal shelves of pill bottles. I saw a bottle of anti-depressants on the top shelf right in the corner and took it down, popping the cap and staring at the contents. I tipped several of the pills into my hand and stared at them, thinking about what I was going to do
“Stephanie, open up the door NOW” Gerard growled from outside the door, he pounded on it a few more times “I swear if you don't open it right now Im going to beat it down myself” he threatened. I looked again at the pile of white pills in my hand and quickly swallowed them all at once. Fifteen anti-depressants, that should do it. I sat down next to the bath, feeling the drugs take effect. Looking out the window I saw the sun setting, the last sunset I would ever see. I never realised how beautiful it was, how unique. All the planets revolving around the sun saw that sight every night but you never appreciate it until it's your last. My eyes drifted shut and I felt a cloud come over my mind, all my memories from my childhood flow through my mind, images of my parents, my old school friends, Troy, Alicia who faced a demise similar to mine, Mikey who's heart is broken beyond repair, Frank who was trying to live with a soul that had lost it's life, Eliza who was yet to meet life's greatest challenges. I could no longer hear Gerard pounding on the door, the images began to fade into the most terrifying image, the thing mankind lives in fear of:
Nothing.

But does anyone notice, there's a corpse in this bed?
