Chapter 1
“Wake the fuck up!” I heard my sister from our bathroom. “Abby get up!” she ran over to me jumping onto my back.
“Get the fuck off me!” I yelled back pushing her off me.
“It is already 6:45 we are going to be late!” she said yanking my arm.
“Okay, Ash I am up!” sitting up. “Why don’t you get dressed?” I asked looking at her for the first time, she was wearing only a tattered green towel.
“Because, I have been trying to get your ass out of bed all morning, Lazy Ass!” She yelled as I got out of bed to jump into the shower Ash had started for me. She always did that, she was a freak about tardiness, where I on the other hand couldn’t care less. What was one to miss when they hardly pay attention as it was.
The shower was nowhere near the boiling temperature I preferred. So just to be the prick of a sister I was I decided to complain, “ASHELY IT”S FUCKING FREEZING!!!!!!”
“Well it would have been warm it someone had bothered to get up in time.” She called back in that bossy tone she always used. Just because she was 2 minutes older she felt she was wise one aka: the boss. Psh, as if!
I hurried the shower scrubbing as fast as I could, I really didn’t want the lecture. I walked into my bedroom, still dripping wet from my shower to get dressed.
“Do you insist on getting the carpet soaking after every shower? God, it’s not as if you clean up after yourself, no leave that up to me!” she asked frustrated.
“Yes I do insist upon it and maybe I would help clean if someone wasn’t so anal on how things are done? …ha. Anal.” I said laughed at my own immaturity.
“Well, I wouldn’t have to be if you showed an ounce of responsibility and did things the write was the first time.” Miss prissy pants declared.
“Ha. Responsibility, what’s that? ” I walked to my closet to pick my outfit for the day; I chose my black and white horizontal striped long sleeve and my black skinnies, topped off with my Vans. I walked back into the bathroom where Ash had begun applying her make-up. I turned on the hair dyer blowing my short black and purple hair as straight as it would go before torturing my hair with the flat iron. After I finished I handed it over to Ash who did her own long brown and blonde highlighted hair, how is it that we came out with that perfect head of hair naturally and I came out looking like little orphan Annie? I applied my foundation to make my face appear whiter than usual. I grabbed the eyeliner and generously lined my eyes. I finished off with some blush, shimmer shimmer, and a tad of cream gloss. I looked into the mirror at the two of us, I was so jealous of Ash; she practically perfect, her hair lay in soft natural waves, her make-up was artistically applied to look as if she was a freakin Disney Princess and her clothes pressed and clung her thin yet curvaceous body . She wore a deep purple sweater dress with black tights and black wedged boots. Ashley had always been the prettier twin; even though we were twins that look almost identical, but weren’t you can just see more beauty in her angelic looks.
“Well we are looking hot!” she exclaimed grabbing the ‘Intoxic’ off the shelf. “Spritz” she said spraying us both and we were off. We picked up the two piece of sourdough bread mom had toasted for us and we gave her a kiss goodbye before jumping in our car to head for school.

We walked into halls of Bellville High School and straight to our locker which we shared. There we found Frank Iero one of my best friends and Ash’s boyfriend.
“Hey ladies what’s going on?” He said pulling my sister into a hug and kiss. She giggled as he did so.
“Nothing just heading into home room, you?” Ash spoke as I got out our books.
“Well I was hoping to find some hot chicks to sit with me in homeroom” He smirked at us.
“Find anyone?” I asked
“No, no one this school really is full of hags,” he teased “But if you two don’t have anything to do but go to homeroom I guess you will have to do.” his smirk was cute.
“Shut-up, Frank! You know damn well I am not a hat!” Ashley said giving him a glare that looked as if she was about to kill him.
Frank cowered, “ I was only joking my beautiful princess,” he said with a hopeful smile as we walked to homeroom. Ash ignored him.
We sat into the normal three seats in the back of the room. Ring The school’s tardy bell went off, I looked around the classroom to see who had shown up for the day. My heart sank as a noticed not everyone was there. The door knob twisted, please, oh please let it be… Nope, it was just Justin. My heart sank further. Wait, someone else is running in could it be? I hope it is, YES it is Gerard Mother Fucking Way! This was the hottest guy at BHS, with the tightest ass. I loved how his black Levi’s wrapped around it, as well as emphasizing on other particular areas, seemingly he was well in endow. But not only that he was also so gorgeous, with his longish black hair, fair face, his incredibly green eyes outlined in black eyeliner. He was…well the was no other word for it, perfect.
“Mr. Way, late again?” our teacher Mrs. Marsh asked as he walked in.
“Yeah well you see, I.. and then the… I was…” He stubble over his words. He was so cute when he was flustered.
“Just go sit down there in front of Miss Sullivan.” she said with a frustrated expression. Wait did she say Miss Sullivan? As in Abigail Sullivan? Or could it be Ashley Sullivan? My heart was pounding fast; it was as if it was about to escape threw my chest. I looked over at my sister who had a m empty seat right front of her as well. He walked in her direction then he suddenly turned down my isle and took the empty seat. Oh my god he was sitting in front of me, I was so close to him I could smell him. My heart was pounding even harder, my face flushed.
“Hey Frankie,” He said turning around to acknowledge Frank his band mate.
“Hey Gee” Frank said as went to pound Gerard’s fist. As Gerard reached over me his scent became stronger I could make out the scents of gritz, paints, and leather, making the perfect cologne. I sat back in my seat watching Gerard as Mrs. Marsh tried to teach. I didn’t hear a thing she was telling us about scattered graphs and liner equations, I was just too involved with Gerard and his awesome smell, so manly so... Gerard.
“Dude, wake up.” Frank nudged me. I snapped out of my day dream.
“Huh?” I asked looking at him.
“We need to pick group for this project, she assigned us. Are you in or are you going to join your imaginary friends?” He asked winking.
“No, no I am in” I said. I wonder what group Gerard was in.
“Now if you two are done, lets get to work I can’t to get anything lower than an A.” Ashley snapped at us
“Yes mistress” We replied together.
“Sorry guys I just wanted to finish my drawing,” Gerard said tuning his desk to face us. “So what is this project exactly?” OH MY GOD GERARD IS IN OUR GROUP! I yelled inside my head so loud it hurt my ears. God, I really had to stop that I sound like a fucking teenie bopper stalker girl. Okay act calm, cool, relaxed, wait how the hell, he is, AHHHHHHH!
“Well we need to pick a topic take a survey on it then graph it.” Ashley answered in her matter-of-factly tone. Yes, not only was she the prettier twin but she was the smarter one. Now I am not saying that I am stupid but I have an attention span of a Dalmatian on steroids.
“Sounds simple enough” he said with one of his killer smiles. God I love his smile, his cute little dimp…I have to stop this! I am not going to be a teenie. For Christ sake he senior I am the twin sister of that pretty freshman it’s not like he would be at all interested in me at all. Oh but I wish he was.RING The bell rang snapping out of another rant in my head. I’m starting to think I am going crazy. My next three periods were pretty much consisting of having consistent arguments with myself for daydreaming about Gerard. So really I have no clue what went on.
Lunch time came at its normal 12:04 on the dot and I went outside by the to the car to meet up with Frank and Ash to go grab some grub for lunch. Ash was already there when I approached the car.
“Where’s Frank?” I asked her.
“I don’t know, he usually here by now.” she said with a shrug.
“Sorry guys I got held up in gym” Frank said sneaking behind my back and grabbing my waist.
“Aww Frankie were you checking out the boys while they got dressed?” I asked.
“What? Ash?” he said letting go of me.
“What? Abby?” I mocked him.
“Why the fuck do you two do that to me.” he cried
“Well why can’t you tell the difference between your girlfriend and your best friend?” I asked him.
“Well the hoodie and the ya know…” he stumbled
“Just stop Frank and get your ass over here” Ash called with a devilish smile on her face. “Oh. Hey Gee” her smile faded. Gee? As in Gerard Way? Where? I turned around to see him walking up to us. My heart did that beating out of my chest thing again. Wow, I need to stop that I might get a heart attack or something.
“Hey Ash, Frank” he said with a slanted smile.
“Hey” they said in unison.
“And hello to you Abigail” he said to me turning around. OH MY GOD GERARD SAID HI TO MY USING MY ACTUAL NAME!!! OH GOD!!! That fine, sexy, man knows my name. OH GOD! OH GOD! OH GOD!
“Yoo Hoo Earth to Abby! Aren’t you going to say hi back or just keep gapping? In any case close your mouth you are not a cod fish/” Ash said hitting my head.
“Oi, that fucking hurt!” I said “and I am sorry, Hello Gerard”
“It’s cool,” he smiled at me with that smile- slightly off Balance.
“Well shall we go? I hope you guys don’t mind me inviting Gee I thought we could discuss that project and shit ” Like hell I would mind, this is the love of my life, okay my not love but my very strong infatuation of the moment that makes it hard to concentrate whenever around...or not around thinking of my last few periods. OF CORSE I WOULD MIND…NOT!
“Fine with me.” Ash said as Frank opened the car door for her then jumped into the driver’s seat.
Gerard and I sat in the back in complete silence until Frank slipped in his Bouncing Souls tape. Immediately the car started singing “OLE, OLE, OLE, OLE, OLE, OLE, OLE. OLE, BOUNCING SOULS NO CAN BEAT US WE DRINK BEER AND WEAR ADIDAS! ANYWHERE WE GET THE INCH WE ARE OFF TO FIND A PROPER PITCH! LACE YOUR SABRAS AND GET ON OUT! OFF WE GO TO KICK ABOUT! WIN OR LOSE WE ARE HAVING FUN! WE WONT QUIT UNTIL WE ARE DONE! WE GOT HEART WHEN WE PLAY! TAKE YOU ON ANY DAY!” We sang that song until we reached Del Taco where we all piled out of the car and jumped in line. We order our food and sat down in a booth next to the window overlooking Our beat up car. Ash and Frank went straight to kissing. Gerard looked uncomfortable…in the cutest way possible.
“So, umm Abigail how has your day been?” he pulled a piece of paper from his backpack and a couple of pencils.
“My day has been pretty good nothing to complain about.” and why would there be I am sitting next to the hottest guy in school, who I have crushed on since 2nd grade. Yes you read right 2nd grade. I remember the first day I met Gerard Way, it was after school on a cold October day Ash and I were walking out of our classroom with his younger brother Mikey, he walked up to us with a limp, and I remember him having a black eye, as well. ‘Again’ was all Mikey said and Gerard simply nodded. Mikey never told us what happened but after that day I would always make Ash wait until Mikey got picked up by Gerard before we would walk home ourselves. She knew I liked Gerard back then, but I have since then told her that I was over him, as she would complain about my constant talk about in her words ‘some that I never would have a chance even if I was his age’…nice sister I know.
“Order 22, 23, 24, and 25 is up.” the lady behind the cash register called over the intercom. Gerard and I both stood to get the food and bring it back to the table. Frank and Ash were much to in the moment to get up and do it themselves. We sat down and everyone took their food and ate.
After a quick wolf down of there food Ash and Frank returned to their favorite activity. I let out a sigh as they did so.
“So is this what you guys do when you leave for lunch?” Gerard asked me as he drew.
“Yeah pretty much. I sit in complete silence as they hookup.”
“Why don’t you chill with other people at lunch? It cant be much fun just sitting here while they do that.”
“Ha. Who I am going to go sit with? This is the extent of my friends. Frank has been my best friend since kindergarten, and Ashley, well Ashley…is my sister.” I couldn’t bring myself to say friend.
“So you are telling me you have no other friends in the whole school?”
“Yep, that’s what I’m saying.”
“I swear I used to see you hang with Stacy McClure and all those people by the pavilion.”
“No that was Ash, she the popular one with all the friends, and I am the chick that hangs with Frank Iero. I always hung with him and he always liked Ash, so when they started dating it became the three of us. Well actually more like them and me. They tend to forget about me when they um well you know.” I laughed at how pathetic I must sound. There was an awkward silence, we sat there eating our food. Wow I really know how to kill the mood.
He looked over to me and smiled. “You come to Del Taco and get a cheeseburger and fries?”
“Yeah” I said taking a bite of my burger. “Is there anything wrong with that?”
“No. it’s just you don’t hear that very often, usually people come here for the tacos” and he took a huge bite of his taco.
“Truth be told I have never had one of their tacos here. I have gotten burgers and fries here since as long as I can remember.”
“Never as in not at all?”
“Nope. Not at all. The burgers here are the shit and fries are too so why risk the chance?”
“I don’t know there tacos are pretty damn good. Here take a bite its not risky unless you don’t have anything else to eat.” He handed over the half way eaten taco he was working on. I took a bite into it. As he had said it was ‘pretty damn good’ but still not as good as my cheeseburger. “Good?”
“Yeah it was but not as good as this” I held my burger up to him. He took a large bite of it right in my hands. He smiled as he swallowed.
“You are right that is one damn good burger.”
“ I know, have a fry, they are perfection.” He leaned in and grabbed some fries. As he did I got another whiff of Gerard scent. He nodded as he took more from the cup.
“So the project, what did you want to do the survey on?” he asked me.
“I don’t know. Did you have any ideas?”
“Well I thought we could a comparison of boys vs. girls and who causes more self harm to one another.” I pulled down on my sleeve. The one hiding the numerous amount of scars from myself. No one knew about these except Frank, not even Ash. I couldn’t bare if anyone found out it was hard enough when Frank did. I had swear Id never do it again, but sometimes it was hard. The pain I physically felt took the place of emotional pain I was feeling inside. It was a pain that no one could understand…ever. “Yo…Abby…” He said waving his hand in front of my face.
“Huh? What?” I looked at him confused.
“What’d you think of that survey?”
“Oh, sorry I must have checked out…I think it is a great idea.” and I really did. I think it would be interesting to see how many other people are just as fucked up as me.
“You seem to do that a lot” he smiled at me and pushed back his hair that was in front of his face. It was so sexy, he was so sexy. It honestly felt like a really bad romantic comedy.
“Okay that settled, I will type of the questions at home and bring to school tomorrow.” I smiled again. GOD I LOVE HIS SMILE!
“Yeah, sounds good” I smiled back. We kept a gaze in each others eyes for what seemed like a lifetime. I felt like I could see into straight into his soul before he broke our eyes to look at his watch.
“We better get going we only have 10 minutes until the tardy bell.” he said looking back at me…not with the Ashley intensity, however.
“Ash, Frank it is time to go…” I said throwing fries at her and him.
“Oi! What the fuck?” Ash asked throw the fry back at me.
“Time to go, or w will be late!” I said to her again.
“Fine” she sighed getting out of the booth followed my Frank who wrapped his arms around him. She never seemed to care about all the things she was frantic over when Frank wasn’t around. I sighed at the two of them. I was happy for them but at times I would get a little jealous of what they had. I had it once last year…but that’s not important.
When we got back to school we left our separate ways. Frank I headed over to geography, where we found Mikey standing outside the door.
“Hey Frank” Mikey waved at us.
“Hey Mikes” Frank said pounding his hand. I just simply smiled at him and he smiled back. His smile was cute but not as hot as his older brother. RING
“Mr. Iero, Mr. Way, and Miss Sullivan inside now the bell has rung.” Mrs. Gutro said standing in the door way.
“Si Mrs. Gutro” Mikey said with a wide smile.
“Michael this is not Spanish class.” Class went by as usual making maps and such. Next classes went by just as fast doing random busy work. I didn’t do the half of it I spent most of my time day dreaming of Gerard. I took an alternate route to my locker in order to pass by Gerard. He gave me a slight smile and nod as I walked past him but he was a little busy talk to some senior girl in a really short skirt. She had long blonde hair, and dressed like a skank. She was totally flirting with my man. Okay, maybe not my man but what the hell was she doing? He wasn’t her type, nor was she his type. It made me feel so…so…so…I don’t know. But I felt miserable. The more I thought about this the worse I felt. Once out of his ear and eye shot I ran as fast as my feet would carry me to my car. There I saw Frank and Ash already in the back seat, making out. I turn on the ignition and sped out like a bat out of hell!
“Wake the fuck up!” I heard my sister from our bathroom. “Abby get up!” she ran over to me jumping onto my back.
“Get the fuck off me!” I yelled back pushing her off me.
“It is already 6:45 we are going to be late!” she said yanking my arm.
“Okay, Ash I am up!” sitting up. “Why don’t you get dressed?” I asked looking at her for the first time, she was wearing only a tattered green towel.
“Because, I have been trying to get your ass out of bed all morning, Lazy Ass!” She yelled as I got out of bed to jump into the shower Ash had started for me. She always did that, she was a freak about tardiness, where I on the other hand couldn’t care less. What was one to miss when they hardly pay attention as it was.
The shower was nowhere near the boiling temperature I preferred. So just to be the prick of a sister I was I decided to complain, “ASHELY IT”S FUCKING FREEZING!!!!!!”
“Well it would have been warm it someone had bothered to get up in time.” She called back in that bossy tone she always used. Just because she was 2 minutes older she felt she was wise one aka: the boss. Psh, as if!
I hurried the shower scrubbing as fast as I could, I really didn’t want the lecture. I walked into my bedroom, still dripping wet from my shower to get dressed.
“Do you insist on getting the carpet soaking after every shower? God, it’s not as if you clean up after yourself, no leave that up to me!” she asked frustrated.

“Nope. Not at all. The burgers here are the shit and fries are too so why risk the chance?”
“I don’t know there tacos are pretty damn good. Here take a bite its not risky unless you don’t have anything else to eat.” He handed over the half way eaten taco he was working on. I took a bite into it. As he had said it was ‘pretty damn good’ but still not as good as my cheeseburger. “Good?”
“Yeah it was but not as good as this” I held my burger up to him. He took a large bite of it right in my hands. He smiled as he swallowed.
“You are right that is one damn good burger.”
“ I know, have a fry, they are perfection.” He leaned in and grabbed some fries. As he did I got another whiff of Gerard scent. He nodded as he took more from the cup.
“So the project, what did you want to do the survey on?” he asked me.
“I don’t know. Did you have any ideas?”
“Well I thought we could a comparison of boys vs. girls and who causes more self harm to one another.” I pulled down on my sleeve. The one hiding the numerous amount of scars from myself. No one knew about these except Frank, not even Ash. I couldn’t bare if anyone found out it was hard enough when Frank did. I had swear Id never do it again, but sometimes it was hard. The pain I physically felt took the place of emotional pain I was feeling inside. It was a pain that no one could understand…ever. “Yo…Abby…” He said waving his hand in front of my face.
“Huh? What?” I looked at him confused.
“What’d you think of that survey?”
“Oh, sorry I must have checked out…I think it is a great idea.” and I really did. I think it would be interesting to see how many other people are just as fucked up as me.
“You seem to do that a lot” he smiled at me and pushed back his hair that was in front of his face. It was so sexy, he was so sexy. It honestly felt like a really bad romantic comedy.
“Okay that settled, I will type of the questions at home and bring to school tomorrow.” I smiled again. GOD I LOVE HIS SMILE!
“Yeah, sounds good” I smiled back. We kept a gaze in each others eyes for what seemed like a lifetime. I felt like I could see into straight into his soul before he broke our eyes to look at his watch.
“We better get going we only have 10 minutes until the tardy bell.” he said looking back at me…not with the Ashley intensity, however.
“Ash, Frank it is time to go…” I said throwing fries at her and him.
“Oi! What the fuck?” Ash asked throw the fry back at me.
“Time to go, or w will be late!” I said to her again.
“Fine” she sighed getting out of the booth followed my Frank who wrapped his arms around him. She never seemed to care about all the things she was frantic over when Frank wasn’t around. I sighed at the two of them. I was happy for them but at times I would get a little jealous of what they had. I had it once last year…but that’s not important.
When we got back to school we left our separate ways. Frank I headed over to geography, where we found Mikey standing outside the door.
“Hey Frank” Mikey waved at us.
“Hey Mikes” Frank said pounding his hand. I just simply smiled at him and he smiled back. His smile was cute but not as hot as his older brother. RING
“Mr. Iero, Mr. Way, and Miss Sullivan inside now the bell has rung.” Mrs. Gutro said standing in the door way.
“Si Mrs. Gutro” Mikey said with a wide smile.
“Michael this is not Spanish class.” Class went by as usual making maps and such. Next classes went by just as fast doing random busy work. I didn’t do the half of it I spent most of my time day dreaming of Gerard. I took an alternate route to my locker in order to pass by Gerard. He gave me a slight smile and nod as I walked past him but he was a little busy talk to some senior girl in a really short skirt. She had long blonde hair, and dressed like a skank. She was totally flirting with my man. Okay, maybe not my man but what the hell was she doing? He wasn’t her type, nor was she his type. It made me feel so…so…so…I don’t know. But I felt miserable. The more I thought about this the worse I felt. Once out of his ear and eye shot I ran as fast as my feet would carry me to my car. There I saw Frank and Ash already in the back seat, making out. I turn on the ignition and sped out like a bat out of hell!
