Chapter 3

Amy stood at the side of the stage, watching My Chemical Romance play their hearts out. She really did like this band, they had something special about them and it seemed like every time she thought of the lead singer chills would run up her spine, 'wow, I'm such a fangirl, stop it Amy' she said, hitting her head lightly and jumping when she felt a hand touch her arm,
"Amy Lee?" The girl asked, Amy nodded slightly, embarrassed at how much she jumped,
"Yer, yer that's me" The girl had shoulder-length black side, cut at a side-parting, she had an innocent-like oval face and piercing blue eyes set above high cheekbones. She was of average build and slightly taller than Amy, which wasn't surprising when Amy thought about it, seeing as most people are,
"Oh My God, I love your music, you guys are so talented" The girl said, fairly fast-paced, "Oh sorry, how rude, forgive me... Kirsty...Kirsty Looms" She said sticking her hand out, Amy took it and smiled at the girl, Kirsty,
"Thank you, you're too kind really" Amy said, her usual reaction when people complimented her work, she wasn't the best at taking praises like that,
"What are doing here anyway?" Kirsty said, her well-spoken accent showing fairly clearly,
"Oh I'm just watching the band..." Amy trailed off as she saw Gerard looking at her and smiling,
"It's Gerard isn't it?" Kirsty asked, a knowing tone stained her voice,
"What d'ya mean?" The long-haired singer asked, looking back Kirsty, who was currently smirking at her,
"You like Gerard" She said simply,
"Well... I mean... He probably has a girlfriend so ya know whatever" she said, once again watching the man control the crowd (who he had asked to throw confetti at him)
"Nah, he doesn't, they broke up a fair while ago, turns out she only wanted him for fame" Kirsty giggled at the memories of the fight they had, "Stupid whore, she never did deserve Gerard"
"How do you know this?" Amy asked intriguing and agreeing with her statement about the girl,
"Oh, I've been close friends with him for a while, I'm going out with Bob, the drummer" Kirsty said, sighing at the mention of her love, "Three years now and he has been nothing but good to me" Amy smiled at the girls happiness, inwardly wishing she could find someone like that, "He likes you by the way"
"Huh?" Amy asked, her focus had gone back to Gerard,
"Gerard Way likes you" Kirsty said slowly, gathering Amy attention back to their conversation,
"But... but..."
"Nope no but's about it. You have Gerard smitten" Amy smiled when she said this, although still doubting it.
The show was soon after and Amy and Kirsty had become friends in the short amount of time, so much so that Kirsty invited Amy to meet the guys.
Frank nudged Gerard... for the hundredth time that night and when Gerard turned to him, getting ready to have a go he pointed in the direction of Kirsty and Amy, and again Gerard could've sworn his heart stopped beating for a second and when the two girls reached them and Kirsty introduced everyone (well once she had given her boyfriend a suitable hello kiss of course).
Kirsty didn't say anything when it got to Gerard; she wanted to hear Gerard introduce himself. Amy stuck her hand out and, ignoring the butterflies in her stomach introduced herself,
"Hi I'm Amy. Amy Lee" She said smiling as Gerard took her hand and shook it lightly in his own, however he had forgotten his name,
"I'm... er.... My name is..." 'Shit' he thought to himself 'smooth, you idiot, real smooth' He still had hold of Amy's hand and he finally remembered, "Gerard! Gerard my name is Gerard Way" and he face broke out into an inhumanly sized grin when she smiled at him, Kirsty could almost feel their attraction towards each other and they hadn't looked away from each other yet,
"So... We're just gonna go check out the sound system right guys" Kirsty said, winking at the rest of the band as they ran towards their dressing room and Kirsty took Bobs hand, running along with them,
"That was...odd" Amy said finally, once she realized that everybody but Gerard has vanished,
"I'm gonna agree with you there" He said, still not looking anywhere but her, "Walk?" he asked, taking a few steps forward,
Amy thought for a moment, again having to ignore the strange feeling in her stomach, "Sure" she said smiling and overtaking Gerard as she walked a few more steps ahead of him, "I'd like that" she said as she watched Gerard catch up to her.
They talked about everything, from musical influences, to their home towns, all the while the feeling in Amy's stomach had turned in throbbing pain as she started to shiver, Gerard noticed the shivering,
"Are you cold?" he asked, ceasing their movements for a little while, "Do you wanna go back to the dressing room?"
As soon as they has stopped however, Amy keeled over in pain, clutching her stomach as she started to sweat,
"It hurts" she moaned, her voice sounded like she was near tears, she tried to stand up but fell over immediately and Gerard had to catch her to stop her falling to the ground.
She tried standing again but it appeared to be too much as she fell over, again into Gerard's arms and this time passed out completely,
"Oh my god!" Gerard exclaimed, picking her up and carrying her back to the My Chemical Romance dressing room, he was in too much of a hurry to find her own dressing room.
Kirsty and the guys were chatting idly when Gerard burst into the room, clutching an unconscious Amy Lee in his arms, though not as unconscious as he first thought once she started coughing violently, again shivering and burying her face into Gerard's chest as the rest of the band moved from the sofa.
He laid her down onto the sofa and ordered the others to find a blanket for her and for someone else to phone an ambulance and finally for the other three to find the rest of her band mates, they scattered to do their chosen tasks, a blanket was soon found and placed over a shivering Amy and Gerard moved some of her hair out of her face,
"Gerard, I'm on hold" Mikey said as Gerard gazed at Amy, who was overcome by bout of coughing,
"Oh for fucks sake!" He exclaimed, "Mikey hang up, we're going there ourselves" and with that he picked up the shivering woman, who immediately clutched onto Gerard's suit for dear life, he sighed and walked out, ordering Mikey to grab Kirsty's car keys and Frank to phone up Kirsty, Bob and Ray and tell them that they were going to the hospital in Kirsty's car.
Frank got into the drivers seat and started the engine as fast as possible and sped out of the car park whilst Mikey was in the passenger seat and Gerard was sat in the back with Amy curled up onto his legs, her hands still gripping so tightly on Gerard's suit that her knuckles had turned almost white and she herself was more pale than usual. Gerard gently dabbed her forehead to try and remove some of the sweat.
Eventually they found a hospital and immediately burst through the doors and ran towards the front desk,
"Please, miss..." Gerard pleaded, Amy was still in his arms, "You have to help her...please" The receptionist was momentarily stunned A) because there were several celebrities in the hospital and B) because of the rush of words that poured from Gerard's mouth,
"Okay, sir, I'll get a doctor immediately" Gerard nodded his head slightly and took Amy to a chair as the receptionist pages the doctor. All too quickly Amy was pulled from his arms and onto a stretcher, and then rushed into a ward where she was then examined.
Gerard felt somewhat empty and useless at that moment, barely noticing that Frank and Mikey has come to sit round him, maybe to try and comfort him, he did however notice when four unknown males and Kirsty and Bob came rushing into the waiting room demanding to know where Amy was... the other band members. Gerard got up and placed his hand on the tall, dark-headed guys shoulder,
"She's being examined right now" he said once he had gotten the mans attention, who then nodded and asked,
"Who brought her here may I ask?" and looked at around at everyone else in the room,
"It was mostly Gerard who took charge of everything and stayed with her the entire time" Frank piped up, knowing that Gerard wouldn't take any credit for his actions at all,
"You're Gerard?" the guy asked,
"Yer, I'm Gerard and you?" Gerard said, sticking his hand out, to which the man took it and gave Gerard a one-armed hug,
"John. John LeCompt" He said, still shaking Gerard's hand vigorously, "This is Terry" he said pointing the guy with dreadlocks, "Rocky" the short one who Gerard recognized as the drummer, "and Tim" the short-dark-haired one.
Gerard said 'Hi' to all of them and together they sat and waited for the doctor to come out, which after 30 minutes he did. Gerard immediately stood to attention and demanded,
"So what happening, what's the matter with her?" The next words were one of the worst things the doctor could have except for 'She's dead',
"Guys... and Girl, I have some bad news..."
