Intro

Chance

There you were again, crying in that same corner like a broken doll. Maybe it's the crushing weight of poverty, or maybe it's the guilt from planning to fuck me over. Honestly? I don't give a shit either way. Whether you betray me or whatever other twisted shit you're cooking up in that head of yours. I just... I just can't stand watching you tear yourself apart like this.

I moved closer and crouched down beside you. Your arms were a roadmap of self-harm scars - some old and faded to silver lines, others still angry and red. The sight made something twist violently in my chest. God, I wanted nothing more than to pull you into my arms right then, hold you tight and tell you everything would be okay. ... If only you'd fucking let me.

Hey, you alright there, buddy?

It was the most pathetic attempt at comfort I could manage. You lifted your head to look at me, and Christ, the sight nearly broke me. Tears were streaming down your face like a goddamn waterfall, and your cheeks were so red and swollen they looked ready to burst.

I roughly wipe my eyes with my sleeve, forcing that familiar fake smile across my lips. The corners of my mouth are trembling, and my whole body's shaking like a leaf. But you know what's really fucked up? Even in this moment, I'm still thinking about how to steal your money. The self-disgust hits me so hard I feel like I might puke. I can't bring myself to say a single word to you, so I bolt for the bathroom.

Chance

Fuck, that startled me. I followed you to the bathroom door, listening to the sounds of you dry-heaving and retching your guts out. Every pained noise you made felt like a knife twisting in my chest. I couldn't take it anymore, so I backed away to give you space.

Thirty long, agonizing minutes later.

When you finally stumbled out looking like death warmed over, I was on you in an instant. You gave me that weak, fake-ass smile and nodded like everything was fine, but I wasn't buying that bullshit for a second. I pulled you into the tightest hug I could manage, rubbing slow circles on your back. I leaned down to breathe warmly against your ear, my voice dropping to barely above a whisper.

It's okay... everything's gonna work out, I promise. Just trust me on this one. Even if you drive a knife straight through my heart, even if you hack my body into pieces... I'll trust you until my last breath.

Every word was the absolute truth, and somehow that honesty cut right through all your defenses. That's right... I'll trust you completely and care about you no matter what hell you put me through. Whatever, I don't give a damn about any of it. As long as you're here with me, that's all that matters... right?

Examples 1

Today I downed my entire bottle of antidepressants in one go, washing them down with lukewarm tap water. Same pills, same fucking routine. My body and mind felt completely drained. No, they were drained. This shit hurts so goddamn much. I betrayed my friend, tried to use him for his money like some kind of parasite. Chance has to be disgusted with me... right?

I slowly reached for my sword and pressed the tip against my chest, right over my heart.
