AMAZINGLY ENOUGH The Game (Frankie Iero ) 31 IT ISN'T OVER YET

*my god…*

You felt ice rush over your body, then you felt as if you were a rag doll, being unbuckled and pulled and tossed and lifted. You felt so helpless. So…tired.

*Baby, can you hear me?*  you looked up to where the voice came.

*Who?* you managed to squeak out. You couldn’t see who is was. You barely recognized the voice. But who ever it was, pulled you closer to their chest and rocked back and forward repeating. *Oh my god. Oh my god.*

You didn’t care who it was. You weren’t alone.

You closed your eyes and just listened. You heard squeaking brakes and felt the momentum shift. You realized you were in a car when you heard.

*Frankie buckle her in, she’s going to get hurt.*

*Gerard, look at her. She can’t get much worse. *

*She could be dead.*

*Hurry and just drive! She’s burning up. The faster we get back the faster she‘ll get better.*

*That is if she’s worth saving.*

*Everyone needs a second chance.*

*She already had her second chance and she blew it…literally.*

*Gerard that’s not fair.*
*It’s completely fair. I don‘t know what you‘ve been on. But you can‘t save everyone, you need to pick your battles.*

*Shut up.*

*I‘m just saying, she could be a lost cause.*

*GERARD YOU WERE A LOST CAUSE AT FIRST. BUT LOOK AT YOU KNOW. You’ve changed so much for the better. I need her to have another chance. I love her. *

*You may love her, but does she love you back?*

*If you don‘t want to give her another chance, then turn around.* there was a long silence. *Come on Gerard, if you don‘t want to save her life, turn around.*

*No.*

*Why not?*

*I don’t want her to die…I just don’t think she wants us to save her.*

*You saw how she was in there. she couldn’t possibly have done that to herself.*

*You were just like that too Frankie. You know as well as I do that it’s not that hard.*

*Gerard, please. Just drive.*
