Fragile Future *shadowpook and I*

Gerard smiled slightly, Feeling his eyes prick.

Jaden Closed his eyes and slowly but surely stopped breathing. eventually the machine stopped registering his heartnbeat.

Gerard stood up and walked out.

Rosemary stood up and looked down at her son. She picked up the blanket and put it over Jadens face befoire tuning around. Tears trickled down her face and she felt deflated.

Raven Hugged her close.

Gerard leant on the wall by the door and lit a ciggerate. He didnt want to cry in front of everyone

Rosemary didn't hug him back but stared over his shoulder. Suddenly she shoved raven to get him off before spinning on her heel and running out the room at wolf speed. She ran dowen teh halway, completely ignoring Gerard. she ran out the hospital and across teh carpark, then down a coupel of roads and into the forest.

Raven sighed and ran a hand through his hair "I'm gonna go get yhings sorted "he mutered Weakly walking out of the room.

Gerard pulled His phones out his pocket and texted Shayne He's gone

Shayen got the text and sighed, passing his phone to Mikey to show him.

Mikey sat down heavily on teh floor and stared at the phone. He had liked Jared. he felt a tear go down his cheek. he quickly wiped it away.

Shayne sighed "We should go see him, Moral suppor and all that. Gerard wont admit he needs it but" he shrugegd.

Mikey shook his head. "He needs some time to compose himself. He wont want us to see him crying. You know what he would do."

Shayne sighed And Grabbed his phone back sorry he put simply.

Gerard glanced at the message and closed his eyes again "They Gave him a month" he said, Senesing One of his familys prescence beside him "That was two weeks ago"

Helena nodded and sighed.. She was filled with pain, and she knew alot of it wasn;'t hers, but Gerards and mostly mums pain.

RGerard glared, Chanelling most fo his greif ino anger "It's not fair" he spat "He was fucking THIRtEEN"

Helena nooded, feeling anger flare taht wasn't hers

Gerard was shaking slightly and took another drag on hsi coggerate, Taking deep bretahs to calm himself down. heslumped against the wall "Its not fair" he repeated weakly.

Helena gave her brother a one armed hug before retreating before he could hit her.

Gerard didnt respond, Taing anoher drag He rubbed his head "This has got to be a bad dream, Or I was knoced out when the mie spoarked."

Helena looked at him. "It's gonna be one hell of a long dream then." she said quitely.

Gerard sank down onto the floor, Grinding his coggerate under his shoe. He buried his head in his knees and Shook slightly, As if e was crying but trying desperay to hide i.

Helena sank to teh floor and sighed. "Why aren't i crying?" she whispered. Her vioce was thick, but no tears had come. "Maybe i'm just inshock." she muttered.

"Im not crying" mumbled Gerard "Its hayfever"

"I know. just wonderig hy i'm not crying." said Helena without a beat.
