*Loud thunder and lightning flickering through the window*
Its 2:47AM and its nothing but a thunderstorm! Gerard rolls groaning "Cant a man sleep?!" he sits up staring at the window. Nothing but rain it's to loud to be able to sleep. I don't understand how anyone is sleeping during this! Gerard goes to the window and moves the curtain looking at the cemetery. He watches as the rain drops onto the graves,lighting flickering in the sky lighting them up. Loud thunder roaring in the background. He decides hes going to visit the cemetery. Gerard goes to his closet and grabs his jacket,black skinny jeans and shoes. He gets dressed then goes to his desk and grabs his notebook and pencil and pen;in case he wants to write or draw something. He puts them in his jacket pockets and heads to the cemetery.

Gerard walked out the door walking towards the cemetery knowing what grave he was going to. He stopped at wild roses looking at them with the water drops laying on the petals. Such a beautiful sight. He picks a few black ones with some yellow roses with red tips symbolizing love. He walked over to his grandmothers grave and put the freshly picked roses on top of the grave. "I miss you Elena" A tear stroke from his face. "Its been hard,i'm unsocial. My only friend is Mikey! I mean yeah i love him,he is my little brother after all. But i'm lonely..I- i really miss you" He sighed and sat next to the grave staring at the sky looking for the very few stars you could see through the clouds. Suddenly a shooting star flew across the sky almost impossible to see. Gerard had a little smile on his face as he made a wish. "I wish... i wish for a friend... a friend who will understand me. Someone who won't use me." Gerard took out his notebook and wrote 


I like the rain,its calming..it's soothing.
But when you hear the roaring thunder;
it can sometimes be scary.
Those dark grey clouds in the sky,
filled with emotion like me and you.

They have to cry at some point,
just like you;
Holding in the tears just make it stronger,

                                                                    darker the clouds become;

And more powerful it lets out.
The wind through the trees,
the lights flicker across the sky,
the thunder roars.

Trees get stroke;

a loud thud as a branch falls to the ground.
Holding in your tears can make the emotions more powerful.
It's best to just let it out;
a little drizzle becoming little puddles.
So you then let the rainbow out;
all the colors shine bright.
A promise,
to both me and you.
Everything will be alright.

He closes his notebook and puts it away in his pocket before the rain destroys it. Rain can bring life,but can also destroy. He jumps as everything becomes white with a loud roar of thunder. Ringing in his ears. Everything starting to fade,his body feeling numb. Everything goes black as he passes out. He was stroke.


"GERARD! GERARD!! WAKE UP!! GERARD!!!" 
Mikey picks up Gerard and carries him home crying. its 9:15AM and he found his brother outside possibly dead in the cemetery! What is he supposed to do besides cry! I ran into Aunt Marie's room and set him gently on the bed shaking her waking her up crying. "AUNT MARIE! AUNT MARIE!! WAKE UP!!" i said sobbing as i spoke. "Mikey? Whats wrong? Why are you crying?" Marie turned over to see Gerard "Oh my gosh! What happened!" She jumped up out of bed and went to where Gerard was to examine whats wrong. "I-idk!!"Mikey spat out still sobbing. "I found him like this at the cemetery!" Marie hugs him comforting him. "I'm sorry you had to find your brother like this Mikes. Mikey hugs back calming down his crying. "W-will he be ok?" Marie looks at him then looks at Gerard. "Why don't we take him to the hospital. It looks like he got stroke by lightning. I'm sure they can help him if something is wrong. He will be just fine. "O-ok" Mikey mumbles.

Marie carries Gerard to the car, Mikey following. She puts him in the back seat and buckles him up. "Mikey? Can you sit next to your brother to make sure he stays ok during the ride?" "Yeah.. i can" Mikey gets in the car and buckles up and looks at Gerard in fear. In fear he might not wake up. In fear that his brother is dead. In fear he will never see his brother again. What if last night was the last time he'd ever hug his brother. He started to panic. "Mikey it's ok, don't worry." "W-what if he's dead! What if Gerard never wakes up!?" "Mikey i assure you he will." "How do you know?!" "I just do Mikey.. I just do.." The truth is she didn't know. She was scared he might die. But she couldn't show that because it would only worry Mikey more, she can't do that to him. Yeah it might have been wrong to say she knows he will stay alive, because.. what if he does actually die. Mikey will be devastated. I mean don't get me wrong i will too but,not as bad as Mikey would. Marie sighs as she parks the car. "We're here" Mikey wipes his eyes from crying and unbuckles himself and Geerard. "I love you Gerard" he says with a little smile on his face. He gets out and Marie picks up Gerard and they walk inside.

Marie carries Gerard to the desk and explains what happened. They immediately bring Gerard to a room. They make Marie and Mikey stay in the waiting room as they do some testing. Mikey holds Gerard's notebook from his pocket along with the pen. He knows he shouldn't but he opens it and starts going through it. He finds what he wrote last night. Its so beautiful.. Relating human emotions to the clouds with rain. He goes deeper into the book and finds a old suicide note. He tears up reading it.
