Hey look who finally
got around to updating...okay I hope you guys like this chappy. Seeing as it’s the finished product of MONTHS of writer’s block. Anyway...on with the show :D………
*Gerard’s POV*
I sat by the door, pretending the planes were soaring through the air, watching them soar higher and higher before swooping down, destroying the enemy completely.
I heard voices outside my door. I listening, wondering if Mikey was there, forgetting that the nurse said he couldn’t come back till tomorrow. “I want him to have another course of E.C.T. I feel it’s helped him a lot.” My breath caught in my throat. Not again, not the electric thing, that hurt me. I don’t want it. I slowly got to my feet, creeping closer to the door, listening intently. “...do me a favour and shave back the hair from his temples, it could be detrimental to the effectiveness of the treatment if it’s in the way...” Mikey! Mikey! Where was Mikey?! I needed him! I needed him! I had to get to him...
I heard the sound of footsteps and realised it was Dr. Barker...walking away from me. I let a small sigh escape my lips. I heard the clacking of heels a moment later and I realised one of the nurses was heading for my room, however she seemed to divert into the room before mine first. I realised that this was my chance I still had my Spitfire in my hand and I gripped it tightly as I opened the door quietly, looking down the hall for Dr. Barker and then set off, running down the corridor towards where I knew the lifts were. As I rounded the corner I saw Dr. Barker heading down the corridor talking to another nurse. I quickly ducked into one of the patient’s rooms. There was a young woman in there. “Shhhh...” I whispered at her, placing a finger to my lips and waiting for the pair to walk past the door and round the corner. “Thanks.” I whispered, giving her a smile.
I continued down the corridor towards the lift. I quite liked this game; it was like when I used to play 52 bunker with Mikey...the first one to reach safe ground, wins. He doesn’t play it with me anymore...I wish he would. However, part of me knew this wasn’t a game, part of me knew that Dr. Barker was trying to hurt me and Mikey was the only one who could keep me safe so I just had to find him.
I moved quietly past the doors towards the lifts, then I realised someone was there, at the reception desk. She was staring right at me. “Gerard?” she whispered. “Is that you?” I nodded slowly; scared she might call Dr. Barker and turn me in. “I’m Karen. I come and look after you sometimes remember? What are you doing here?”
“Dr. Barker wanted to hurt me again. I want Mikey.”
“Gerard...I...” Suddenly, alarm bells started screeching around us and I could hear yells coming from down the corridors. “Quickly, come here!” Karen said urgently, pulling me behind the reception desk and pushing me down so I was ducked down, hidden under the front part of the desk. She kept her hand on my head to keep me still while pretending to organise some files and then I heard Dr. Barker’s voice. “Where’s Gerard??” He asked, the anger evident in his voice.
Karen responded calmly. “I haven’t seen him Dr. Barker. Why? Is he the reason the alarm’s are going off?”
“Yes! He’s not in his room and he hasn’t had his treatment today!” I shuddered under the table slightly and Karen patted my hair softly, trying to reassure me. “Well I haven’t seen him and no-one gone downstairs in the last 10 minutes or so. I’ve been here the whole time.”
“Hmmm...well keep an eye out for him. We don’t know what he’s capable of.” Dr. Barker told her venomously. “Keep looking!” He yelled at the other nurses and the all took off in different directly, I could hear a million footsteps before they all began to subside. Karen glanced down at me. “You’ve got to get out of here Gerard. Take the lift to the ground floor and take a left then you’ll end up at the unguarded exit. I’m sorry but you’ll have to find your own way from there.”
I stood up slowly and nodded to agree with what she had just told me. “Won’t you get in trouble?” I asked.
“Course I will.” She said. “But what they’re doing to you is wrong and I can’t stand by any longer. Now go!” she said ushering me towards the lift doors.
***
The lift pinged and I took off at a run out of the doors, turning left just as Karen had told me to. I heard a shout of something behind me but the door in front of me was unguarded so I just kept running, not looking back for a second. The uniform white trousers I had on were starting to fall down, the wind as I ran down the street whipping the bottoms of them against my legs. I had to run, to find Mikey. So I just kept running, not really focusing on where I was going just knew I had to run.
It was when I turned a street corner and saw a small alley that I ducked inside to catch my breath. I couldn’t hear any shouting behind me; no-one seemed to be chasing me, well not for now at least. So I took a moment to try and recognise where I was. I couldn’t see anything that would really help me, but then I spotted it. Just up the road from me was a small park where Mikey and I used to play. I could get home from there, through the small wood and thicket that led to the path behind our house.

*Mikey’s POV*
I was sitting with Frank, Ray and Bob, trying to work out a plan, something...anything to get him out of there. My mind was preoccupied though; I was scared for Gerard, wondering what they were doing to him now and how I wasn’t there with him, to protect him.
Suddenly I heard some scrabbling by the door and then some frantic knocking. We all stopped talking and looked at each other, confusion spread over our faces. The knocking became more frantic and I heard a muffled sound that sounded like someone calling my name. I frowned, going to the door and unlocking the latch before opening the door.
“Gerard...?” I whispered. He looked like he’d been dragged through a hedge backwards, leaves and twigs tangled in his hair and stuck to his white clothes. It was then that he barrelled into me, burying his head in my chest and beginning to sob quietly. God in that moment I was just so happy to have my brother back in my arms I didn’t care how he’d got here just that he was.
I couldn’t see the other guys faces but I could imagine them. Pure shock would probably be the way to describe it, especially Ray and Bob. Frank was the first one to speak. “Hey Mikers. Let’s get the door closed and bring Gerard in yeah? Cause I’m assuming this isn’t authorised visitation.”
I nodded softly, taking a step back but Gerard clung on so tightly that he came with me. Frank stood up and pushed the door to. I glanced at him, silently thanking him. I then slowly manoeuvred Gerard so we could sit down on the sofa in the space I had vacated moments earlier. He slid down with me, his arms fixed firmly round my waist. “Gee?” I whispered He glanced up at me, his face stained with tears. “What happened? How did you get here?”
“Ran.” Gerard replied. “They wanted to hurt me Mikey. They wanted me back in the room with the electric. I was scared. I needed you.”
“Electric?” Ray said, confused.
“E.C.T.” I heard Frank whisper as quietly as possible but Gerard still heard. He gave a small scream and tried to bury himself further into my chest. I heard Ray give a small gasp. I stroked his hair and back soothingly. “Don’t worry. We’re not going to let them hurt you. Not any more.” I reassured him.
“But they couldn’t.” Bob said. “It’s practically illegal. Well at least only to be used in the direst of circumstances. Do you realise the amount of paperwork they’d have to go through to get it approved?!”
I looked back at him. “So we could get him struck off for this...theoretically. Get Dr. Collins back?”
“Theoretically...yes...but we’d have to prove everything and that won’t be easy seeing as he’s not got caught thus far therefore he’s hardly gonna leave a paper trail is he?” I nodded and sighed.
“Come on Gee. Let’s get you to bed yeah?” He nodded slightly, still not taking head out of my chest. “Come on, up you get.” I said, pulling him to his feet. He finally properly looked at me and the vulnerability I saw there in his eyes almost broke my heart in two, strange considering I thought this had broken it long ago. I held out my hand to him and he took it, following me towards the stairs and down to his basement bedroom.
Gerard looked slowly round his room as I turned on the lights. He looked bemused for a moment, staring at the artwork on the walls. I took him over to the bed and sat down. Upon seeing it was nothing dangerous in the room he sat down with me. I slowly pulled back the covers and noticed he was still only wearing the thin indoor pumps which they wore in the hospital. They were brown and black now with dirt and grime. I leant down and helped him take them off before swinging his legs up on to the bed.
“Try and get some sleep okay?” I told him, pulling the black sheets over him. “You warm enough?” He nodded gently at me. “Well if you need me I’m the first room at the top of the stairs...you remember right?” A slightly unsure nod but still a nod. “Frank may stay the night so don’t be worried if he’s sleeping in the spare room or on the sofa in the morning.” I stared at him intently for a few seconds before leaning in and kissing his brow softly. “I love you Gerard.”
I got up and began to walk away. I turned off the main lights and went to turn off the small one but he yelped and I pulled back. “Okay, I’ll leave it on. It’s fine.” Gerard seemed to relax a bit at this. “Night.”
“Night.” He replied. I went to leave the room. “And Mikey?”
“Yes Gee?”
“I love you too.” I closed the door softly behind me, with a small smile on my face and tears glistening in my eyes.
