-Gerard's POV- (continuing from last chapter. Also... Gerard's face in this picture...I mean...I can't... Okay we need to continue)
I looked at Frank.
Something was wrong; Ray sounded worried.
I knew there was only one probable reason for it, but I didn't want it to be true. I immediately stood up and strode out the door, Frank following close behind. Mikey was still passed out on the bed; it was going to be a bit fucking complicated to explain this situation to him when he woke up. We walked into Ray's room which had been across from mine.
We entered and Ray was standing in front of his computer station thing he'd set up. His eyes were wide. He didn't need to say anything for me to get my ass over to the computer. I didn't know what exactly I was expecting, but then I glanced at the screen.
And my heart fucking stopped.
There, on the screen, sat Anastasia, but it was like the girl I was looking at wasn't even her. The girl I was seeing looked like she'd been to hell, back, and then dragged back to hell again. She was wearing blood soaked clothing, but that wasn't even the half of it. Her face was dirty, bloody, and tear stained. Her eyes were red, and dark circles encased her eyes; she looked like she hasn't slept in years. When I looked into her eyes, I saw nothing but fear, despair, and emptiness; it was like looking into the ghost of someone that had once lived.
Anger immediately began to pulse through my veins, but when I looked into her eyes, Anastasia's goddamn green eyes, I just wanted to put my first through the laptop.
When her eyes met mine though, she immediately looked away, tears beginning to fall down her cheeks. I didn't understand; it was like she couldn't look at me?
I didn't dwell too much on it; the fury that quickly took over my brain wouldn't let me.
I wanted to break something, like really fucking break something. I sat in Ray's roller chair and gripped the edge of the desk, my knuckles turning ghost white from the pressure.
She looked so pained.
So goddamn sad.
Lee did this to her. He fucking touched her, and I wasn't there to do anything.
"Anastasia-" I whispered, but she still wouldn't look at me.
The second her name left my lips, Frank's head turned toward mine from across the room. He had been sitting on the bed, head in his hands next to Ray; he was as scared as figuring out what was wrong as I had been.
But it turns out the situation was a lot worse than I could have ever imagined.
Frank stride quickly over to the computer, and when he looked at the screen, at Anastasia, at what was left of Anastasia, I saw his face turn white.
But it wasn't only Anastasia on the screen. I could see Lee, the bastard himself, standing behind Anastasia. He held her hair in his hand, and the other held a knife, which was pressed to her cheek.
I gripped the table harder, trying, and I mean really fucking trying not to lose it.
Anastasia was going through hell...
And it was my fault.
"Gerard, Frank!" I heard Lee finally say with a smirk. "I believe I've found something of yours!" He said while moving the knife up and down Anastasia's cheek tauntingly, not cutting her though. Her eyes remained closed as she cringed and tears rolled down her cheeks.
I slammed my fist on the table, only making Lee's smile wider. "YOU FUCKING SON OF A BITCH!" I screamed, blinded by my own rage.
How dare he touch her!
How dare he fucking touch her!
Lee chuckled. "You really need to learn some respect Gerard; you need to learn when you've been out done!"
I could feel Frank basically shaking with anger next to me. "WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER!" He spat, his eyes staying on Anastasia. As much as I hated him doing that, now wasn't the time to get jealous.
At the sound of Frank's voice, Anastasia's eyes returned their gaze to us. But by seeing both of us, even more tears began to spill from her eyes as she slowly shook her head. I saw Lee look down at her, before smiling at us evilly.
"You see that?" He said, pulling on Anastasia's hair, forcing her head against the chair. "She can't even look at you two anymore!" He snickered. "I guess that's what shame does to you!"
Shame?
I saw Anastasia squeeze her eyes tighter together, tears still making their way down her cheeks.
Neither Frank it I knew what to say.
That didn't last long though. "LEE, WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO TO HER?!" I slammed my fist down against the table again. I couldn't stop looking at all the blood on her clothes and face. I could only see from about her chest up, but I knew there was something wrong. That much blood didn't come from biting your lip...
"It took her the longest time you know? It took her the fucking longest time to admit to herself that she lived both of you... She drove herself fucking crazy!" He smiled, pulling on Anastasia's hair so that she faced him. "Didn't you darling?" He snickered as Anastasia began to shake her head back and forth.
I saw it now, what had been in her eyes before. Not only was Anastasia in physical hell, but mental hell as well. I don't know what was going on in her mind, but she looked so deteriorated, so broken.
Had I done that?
Lee chuckled. "Poor thing. Like I said Gerard, she's not the girl you knew before." He continued tauntingly.
Frank and I wee both silent because I think that Lee's words were just sinking in past our anger.
Love?
Did he just fucking say that Anastasia loved...Us?
No. I didn't believe it. She couldn't. Not after what I'd-we'd done to her.
But maybe-
Maybe that's why she couldn't look is in the eyes-
Is that what Lee had meant by shame?
Us?... She loved both of us? I wanted to be angry, and I wanted to tell Lee to go to hell, but my eyes were fixated on Anastasia.
She loved me?
"Still letting it sink in? Are you surprised that a girl as pretty as our friend here would ever love men as terrible as you? I know I am!" He continued to mock us, visibly making Anastasia more and more upset. She couldn't even look at Frank or me.
"YOU LYING BASTARD!" I spat, trying to hide how confused I really felt. Frank was still at a loss for words; all he could do was stare back and forth from Anastasia to Lee.
He continued to smile, amused. "You need to learn Gerard that there will always be people more powerful than you; someone as egotistical as you tends to make the mistake as believing themselves to be God." He chuckled. "And I'm going to show why, in this particular situation, that just isn't true!"
His smirk only widened as he forced Anastasia to stand, revealing more of her bloodied shirt and pants. My anger began to return quickly; what the fuck had he done to her?
I saw Anastasia's eyes widen in terror, and she tried to struggle free, but I could see that she was just too exhausted. Whatever he's done to her, she didn't want us to see...Why?
"No, please-" Anastasia spoke for the first time, but she barely sounded like herself; it broke my damn heart to hear just how much pain she was in.
Lee only tugged her hair harder, causing her to tense up. I saw his hand travel to the bottom of her shirt, beginning to pull it up.
What the fu- I began to think furiously, but then I was stopped dead in my tracks.-
I heard Frank gasp.
Lee has pulled up Anastasia's shirt, revealing her stomach. I was dumbstruck as I saw my "G" that I had marked her with was still there, but around it, a large "L" had been carved crudely into her stomach.
I heard Anastasia begin to sob as my vision slowly went blurry, and then I took a deep breath---
