Melody's POV

I was hoping with every being of my body that Mikey wouldn't be home when we arrived but unfortunately he was. It was worse than that though because Gerard, Ray, and Chris were also here. Zac and Benji were still here but they were busy packing because they had to leave tonight. They had school tomorrow which reminded me I probably had to start attending sometime this week as well. I'm sure Gerard had the necessary documents he needed for me by now and I really can not imagine him letting me off the hook any longer.

When Frank and I walked in there was a whirlwind of emotions swirling around me. Mikey only glared before excusing himself to his room. Ray shot me a small smile and a nod. Gerard sent an apologetic half-smile my way and Chris bounded over and wrapped me in a tight hug.

Though I hadn't known Chris long or spent much time with him he was quickly becoming my new best friend. He reminded me a lot of Benji. He kept doing silly stuff just to get a giggle or a smile out of me and for that I was honestly grateful. Once Chris released his death grip on me I went to Frank's room where Zac and Benji were packing their bags.

"Mel, you're back." Zac smiled then dropped the shirt he had been folding to envelope me in a hug. "How are you feeling?"

"Eh, I'm okay. It feels strange to be back here where I'm not really wanted. Well, at least not by everyone."

"You could come home with us if you want to." Benji stated.

"And just where would I stay genius?"

"You could stay with me." Zac offered.

"Oh yeah. I'm sure your parents would be thrilled about taking in a pregnant teenager." I snorted.

"It's just me and my mom and trust me she wouldn't mind at all. She was only fifteen when she had me so she knows what it's like."

I sighed. "I would love to but Frank asked me to stay. He wants to be a part of everything involving the baby and I can't deny him that. Not while he is trying to help."

"Well, if you change your mind let me know. My door is always open to you, Mel."

"Thanks Zac." I smiled and hugged him. I was grateful to have such a great friend in my life.

"I am going to miss you guys so much. I feel bad that we didn't even get to do anything this weekend because of me. "

"Don't. We are just glad you and the baby are okay." Benji sighed. "Besides, we'll be back."

"You better and tell Aly and Ryan I miss and love them too."

"I will. I promise." Benji smiled as he wrapped his arms around me in a tight embrace. I felt a few stray tears fall but I wiped them away before they noticed.

Once Benji and Zac finished packing and gathered the rest of their belongings they bid farewell to everyone and I walked them to their car. I hugged both of them once again and we said our goodbyes before they climbed into the car and sped off. I stood on the sidewalk and waved until Benji's car disappeared then I turned and went back inside. I was greeted with the smell of food and my stomach growled noisily.

"You hungry?" Gerard questioned.

"Yeah."

"Good. I cooked vegetable lasagna. I didn't feel like making two lasagnas this time and I have to feed Frank too." He chuckled.

"Damn straight you do. I am starving." Frank called.

"It smells amazing." I smiled.

"Come on then, dig in."

I took a seat at the table between Chris and Frank. I noticed there was still one empty seat though. I guess Mikey couldn't stand to look at me. Not that I could blame him. I had just broke it off with him. I sighed and brushed those thoughts aside then began to eat. It really was amazing. It was like heaven in my mouth. No one really talked through dinner. We all just sat in silence enjoying our meal. It wasn't until we were eating dessert that someone broke the silence. That someone was Gerard.

"So Melody, about school."

"Ugh!" I groaned. I knew what was coming.

"Here me out first. School is important and I want you to finish. We all do but I have a proposal for you."

I looked at him with clear curiosity etched across my face.

"How would you like to be home-schooled?" He questioned.

"Really?"

"Yes."

"You mean I wouldn't have to go to hell everyday?"

He laughed. Everyone did. "Nope."

"Whoo-hoo!" I cheered. "So, who's gonna be my teacher?"

"Me and Frank."

"Frank?" I quirked an eyebrow at Gerard, a small smile playing on my lips at the thought of Frank trying to teach.

"Hey! I'm smart." Frank frowned as he poked me in the ribs.

"I didn't say you weren't smart. I just can not picture you teaching school."

"Just for that I demand you call me Mr. Iero during school time." He pouted.

"Whatever you say, Mr. Iero." I smirked.

"Now that is more like it." He grinned.

"Children." Gerard muttered.

"So, when do we start?" I questioned.

"Tomorrow morning." Gerard answered.

"I can deal with that as long as I get to 'attend' school in my pajamas."

"I could care less what you wear." Gerard shrugged.

"This is gonna be fun." I grinned.

After dinner everyone went home and Frank and I settled onto the couch to watch a movie before we called it a night. Mikey still had not come out of his room and I felt bad. I really wanted to make things right between us. Though I was still hurt that he had so blatantly called me a whore and accused me of only wanting to be with Frank. That just wasn't true. At least not for me. Sure, Frank is a great guy now that he is not being an asshole and yeah, he is super gorgeous but we are just friends. Right?


Gerard's POV

As I lay in my bed trying to sleep the thoughts raced, invading the caverns of my mind. I felt horrible for what I had done. It was an accident. I would never do anything so horrendous on purpose. I had been known to be a cold-hearted bastard at times but not that cold-hearted. I hadn't meant to kill that baby. I really hadn't. I was just so pissed at Mikey. I was angry that he would be so stupid as to throw his life away on one stupid teenage girl. It wasn't that I didn't like Melody. She was an okay girl but she was still a pregnant teenager who had the ability to rip our world apart which she had successfully exceeded in doing.

At least to Mikey. He refused to talk to anyone. He just stayed locked away in his room and snapped at anyone that tried to help or talk to him. I can't lie and say I am upset that Melody broke it off with Mikey because honestly I am relieved but I do hate how upset Mikey is over it.

Not even to mention the power Melody now holds over Frank's life. Though Frank only has himself to blame for that. Melody would forever be a part of all of our lives from now until the end of everything. It's amazing how one night can either tear your world apart forever of change your destiny with one simple action.



Is anyone else going to see MCR on their new tour? I am and I am so excited! This will be the first time I have ever seen them in concert. ^_^
