It was long after a My Chemical Romance concert. The fans had left hours ago. Still, Rachel and her mother lingered, watching the band's tour bus and talking about how cool it would be if one of them came out. Then, a drunk driver spun out onto the sidewalk, hitting Rachel's mom and knocking her down.

RACHEL'S POV
It was all a blur. I just remember my mom gasping and pushing me away. I heard tires screeching, and next thing i knew, a truck had hit my mom full force. An empty beer bottle fell out the window as the driver sped off.
I screamed. My mom was lying on the floor with severe injuries. She was dying right in front of me. I ran around the car, looking desperately for someone to help me. It was late, and no one was outside. "Somebody help!" I yelled. No answer. I looked around and panicked. "HELP!!! PLEASE!" In frustration, I fell to my knees in tears.

Gerard's POV
Man, I was tired. You'd think after doing so many shows one's voice would be used to the brutal screaming and singing as loud as possible, but no. I just wanted to sleep. My body ached to be laying down, and my throat was just sore as fuck. Another show, another night of feeling like shit.
The guys were all laughing and joking about something, but I wasn't in the mood. My throat hurt too much.
Then I heard it. It sounded an awful lot like a scream. I shook it off, but a little bit later I heard it again. But, I wasn't sure.
"Guys shut up!" I yelled. Ow, my throat.
We all heard the scream this time, loud and clear. It seemed like in only a second, Frank and I were outside running towards it, without thinking. Pretty soon we saw her, a teenage girl kneeling over a body.
"Please help, my mom... she was hit..." Was all she could say without breaking down into tears again. Seeing her broke my heart. I just wanted to grab her and hug her tight.
"It's gunna be okay, alright? We're gunna help you. Your mom's gunna be okay," I said, not knowing if it was true. I just needed to calm her down. I turned to Frank. "Take her inside the bus, please." I took out my phone and dialed 911, but I already knew it was probably too late.

"Hey whats going on?" Mikey asked as Frank walked in with his arm around a crying girl. Ray and Bob, who were casually lying in their bunks, rushed over.
"No time right now." Frank said hurriedly. He sat down with the girl, who was now trying to stifle her sobbing. It was obvious that she did not want to look so distressed in front of people. "It's ok," He said, "Gerard's getting help right now. Don't worry." Not knowing what else to do, he held her tight as she cried some more.

RACHELS POV
I remember seeing someone running towards me. I pleaded for help, not knowing or caring who it was. Somebody else appeared,and the first person helped me up. Then I heard his voice and knew instantly who it was. It was Gerard Way. Normally, I would have screamed, fainted, died, or all of the above. Gerard was my idol. It was my dream to meet him, or any member of the band. I couldn't think straight. I felt like such an idiot for crying and being so hysterical in front of him. I fought back tears as someone put his arm around me and rushed me away. I looked up, and saw Frank Iero, looking very worried. How was i supposed to act? I couldn't be all fan-girlish now, but i certainly didn't want to start crying again. Then I remembered seeing my mom on the ground like that, which made me burst into more tears.
Soon, I was sitting down in their van, with Frank trying to comfort me and the rest of the band members confused, wondering what happened. I was so overwhelmed, I didn't know what to do but cry.

Mikey, Ray, and Bob ran out to where Gerard was. "Hey man, whats going on?" Ray asked. The sound of an ambulance siren echoed not so far away.
"This girl's mom was hit... I think it was a drunk driver." Gerard said, pointing at the broken beer bottle nearby. "Hit and run."
The ambulance pulled up next to them. "Thank God," Ray said, "I hope she's ok... you should have seen that girl, she's hysterical."
"I know," Gerard said, "When she was trying to tell me what happened, she couldn't even talk. I had to get her away from the scene so she could calm down. She could barely breathe."
"What are we gonna do?" Mikey asked, watching as the woman was carried into the ambulance.
"I don't know, I guess we can just hope that her mom will be ok." Ray said.
The police were asking Gerard what happened, when one of the ambulance workers came out to them.
"Wheres this woman's daughter?" she asked. "I think you should bring her out now. I'm afraid her mom didn't make it.
"Fuck..." Gerard sighed. "I guess I should get her."
Suddenly, Bob, who had been quiet the whole time, spoke. "I'll get her." Everyone turned to look at him. He was staring forward, not making eye contact with anyone. "I remember how horrible it was when I lost someone like that. I feel so bad for her, having to go through that when she's so young. I want to talk to her." With that, he turned and walked towards the bus.
Mikey turned to Gerard. "Did you know that someone important to him died?"
Gerard and Ray shook their heads. "No," Gerard said. "He's never talked about it."
"Weird," Ray said. "I never knew either. And this whole time he didn't tell us. I wonder who it was."
The three friends were left to wonder as Bob left to retrieve Rachel.
