Stolen (My Chemical Romance)

Chapter 6

Gerard took me to the kitchen, where it looked like Ray had just finished making breakfast. I looked around and didn't see Allison.

"Where is she?" I asked softly.

"I think Mikey took her to his room to calm her down."

I couldn't hear any screaming, so that was a good sign, right? I still wanted to go check on her. This was all my fault. 

"After breakfast, we can go see how she's doing. She seems to have calmed down. Let her relax" Gerard said as if he could read my mind. I just looked at him. Wait, can he actually read minds?

If you can read my mind, do a silly dance.

I just stared at him. 'You like eggs?" He asks.

Okay so no silly dance, another good sign. "Yeah I guess." 

He sat me down and began making my plate of food. Should I make my escape? Frank isn't here and who knows where he'd catch me. Maybe I should act like I'm complying, gain their trust, and THEN make my great escape.

"What are you plotting over there?" Gerard raised his eyebrow. I'm starting to think he has real mind reading powers. 

"I'm just wondering if I should eat my eggs or toast first." I lied. 

He handed me my plate. I hadn't realized how hungry I was until I took my first bite. I haven't eaten much yesterday before the concert, so it's been about a day. I scarfed all of my food down before Gerard could sit down with his own plate.

"Holy- are you still hungry? Do you want more?" 

"I'm good" It was a good meal and I would have loved more. But having my kidnappers be polite hosts didn't really sit well with me. Maybe escaping will be easier than I thought. "Is there any way I could check on Allison now?"

"Not until I've finished" Gerard sighed.

"But-" 

"No buts. We can't trust you by yourself" Frank interrupted.  

"What about when I have to use the bathroom?"

"Someone is going to have to stand outside of the door." 

"What if I... Nevermind." I didn't want to know the answer to that question. 

Gerard looked at me, and then at Frank. He finished chewing the food in his mouth. "If you absolutely want to check on your friend at this exact moment, Frank could take you."

I took a second to think about it. I looked at Frank, who had a grin on his face. Maybe I'd regret it, but I really wanted to make sure Allison was okay. 

I sighed. "Fine."

Gerard seemed surprised. He gave Frank a look before I felt his hands grab my arm. I took a deep breath so I wouldn't say anything to make him angry again. "I can walk myself" I said calmly.

"And I have arms to make sure you don't run away." 

I almost retaliated but kept silent. He dragged me towards Mikey's bedroom. From what I've seen so far, there were 3 bedrooms upstairs and 2 downstairs. Mine and Allison's room was one that was upstairs. He took me to hallway away from the stairs.

The closer I got to the door, the faster my heart started beating. Was she okay? What was he doing to her? I couldn't hear anything. Was she dead? No. She couldn't be.

"I don't know if I want to interrupt them. I don't want to walk in on somebody I know" Frank joked. I rolled my eyes.

"It's silent." I pointed out.

Frank knocked on the door. He waited a few seconds before opening it. I braced myself before looking inside. Allison was sleeping in Mikey's bed. He was laying next to her with his arm wrapped around her. They were both passed out. I felt better knowing she was okay. But it should have been me that took her to bed to calm her down. I don't want any of these filthy hands touching after putting her through this. 

"See? Nothing to worry about." Frank shut the door. 

We started walking towards the kitchen, but he dragged me upstairs before we could make it back.

"What are you doing?" I asked as he shoved me into his bedroom.

"I just wanted to warn you about tonight." He smiled evilly.

"Excuse me?"

"Well, me and Gerard were talking. I suggested that you two should sleep in one of our rooms so we know you're not planning anything against us. I also suggested that you sleep in my room since I know you're afraid of me and wouldn't try to escape."

"That is absolutely not happening" I said with arms crossed. 

"Well, he did agree that you two shouldn't be together alone. Who knows what you guys would do if both of you acted the way you do." 

"So you're afraid of me too" I tried not to smile.

"I'm not afraid of you. I do, however, think you're smart. I know the only reason you let me take you to Mikey's room is because you're trying to gain our trust. I just don't think we should take any chances with you."

"I don't need your trust. I just wanted to make sure she was okay. I worry about her. She doesn't deserve to be here."

Frank thought for a second. He took a step closer to me, making me a little nervous. "Want to make a deal?"

"Depends" I said curiously. 

"Gerard is going to ask you if you'd prefer to sleep in his room or mine. If you choose mine, I will make sure Allison gets to go home safely. As in, she could be home by tomorrow night."

My heart stopped. Allison could escape this awful place? She should be the one to leave. I know she's be smart enough to go to the cops and bring them to me. This could work. But is that worth sleeping with this monster? I don't like the way he's looking at me.

"How do I know your end of the deal gets done?" 

"I can't promise anything. You're just going to have to take my word. I can't trust you if you don't trust me." He winked. 

"I.. I have to-"

There was a knock on the door. Frank stepped passed me to open it. 

"What are you guys doing in here?" Ray asked.

"What are you doing here?" Frank asked back.

"Gerard told me to come find you. He wants everyone in the kitchen."

"We'll be down in just a second." Frank waved him off before shutting the door again. 

Frank turned around and stared at me. I didn't think he'd want an answer right this second. I needed more time to think about this. I don't want to sleep in any room with these people. I want my own room at my own house. This was completely an unfair trade. I know I want Allison to leave and be safe, but I also need to think of myself in this situation.

"Well?" 

"I guess we'll just see what happens." I said. I didn't trust him. I know he was probably just using my weakness as a way to get to me. There isn't any way he was letting her go without a plan. As much as I hated him, he was also smart. 

Frank grabbed my arm and took me downstairs. I mumbled swear words under my breath. I wasn't an animal who needed to be lead somewhere on a leash. 

Gerard, Mikey, Ray, and Allison where already sitting at the table. Gerard gave me and Frank a weird look when we walked in. I ignored it and ran to Allison. I tightly hugged her. 

"How are you" I whispered. She hugged even tighter. 

"Better now that you're here. I want to go home" She whispered back. My heart broke. Knowing I might be able to save her didn't add to the amount of guilt I was holding. 

"Why did you call this family meeting?" Frank asked Gerard as he sat next to me. I scooted closer to Allison.

"We need to talk about our plans moving forward." Gerard said in a serious voice.
