Toxic.| | | Frank Iero AU. *Completed*

.8.

Screaming.

It's all Ana hears as she sits in the room. It's coming from her own mouth.

It's not panicked screams, she's just seeing how loud she can scream.

The nurse comes in, glaring at her, and putting the tray in front of her. When the jacket comes off, She grabs the note and reads over it again.

She giggles at Mikey's and smiles.

"Yes, mom. I'll keep trying to talk.-Mikey."

She hugs the paper. She's trying to get Mikey to talk more. He's an extremely intelligent person, he's just very quiet.
________________

She's only been here two weeks, and has already rubbed her burns until they bled.

Two guys sit next to her at the group meeting. She spent the last one in the infirmary.

"Hi." The guy with long black hair says, giving her a slight smile.

"Hi."

"I'm Gerard. This is my little brother, Mikey."

"Anastasia."

"Pretty name."

She blushes, and smiles.

"Anastasia is a name bestowed to women and the feminine equivalent of the male name Anastasius. The name is of Greek origin, coming from the Greek word "anastasi" (gr."ανάσταση"),meaning "resurrection"."

She and Gerard look over at Mikey, stunned.

"That's the most I've heard him say in years."

"That was amazing!!!" she says, beaming at Mikey.

It took him a couple mote weeks to return the smile.

She lays on her back, staring at ceiling as her eyes slide shut.

Memories of Mikey flood her mind that night.

Frank opens his eyes, against the lights. He's sitting in padded room with no memory of what happened after he sat down at lunch or how he got here.

Something wet covers his face. He runs it, assuming it's sweat.

His hands come back red.

He quickly searches his body for the source.

Nothing.

The realisation makes his stomach drop to the deepest pit of hell.

Oh no.

Oh no.

No.

GOD PLEASE NO.

Short I know.

I'm sorry Mikey.
