Give Me A Reason To Believe

Gerard's P.O.V.

I became numb.

The pounding against my face and body matched up with the sound of the thunder surrounding me.

I felt all the blood running down the side of my face.
I stopped hearing.
Feeling altogether.

It wouldn't help to scream.
I wouldn't be able to hear myself if I tried.
I was numb.

I had no feeling of the marks being imprinted onto my body.
I was weak.

I was focused on remembering those green eyes.
The lightning flashed again.
Rain.

I opened my eyes.

I didn't hear the voices.
And I still didn't feel the bruising parts of my body.
The pain.
It wasn't there.
But it was.
It had to be.

Suddenly, I felt.

I felt the fists crunching against my body.

I heard.

I heard the yells.
They were saying stop.
Please, please stop.

And then I saw.
I saw the green eyes.

I was safe.

Black.
