"Sherlock!"
"Just go, Y/N...don't worry about me." Sherlock tells me, as he's bleeding from the bullet wound in his chest.
A gun drops from my hand.
"W-What have I done...?"
"Don't cry Y/N...it's okay."
"No, Sherlock -- don't leave me, please!" I cry.
"Hurry...before the police g-get you...live for me Y/N..." He croaks out dryly.
I stare at him one last time, before turning on my heel and running far away.
How could I do something like that...
HOW COULD I SHOOT HIM?
WHY DID I DO THAT?
Turn around, go back to him.
Why are you still running..?
STOP RUNNING.
. . .
STOP IT, NOW.
"Stop!" I gasp, sitting up quickly.
I rub my eyes -- they're wet with tears.
"Are you alright?" Sherlock asks, quickly sitting up.
He's wide awake.
"Just a silly dream." I tell him, continuing to wipe my tears as I try to collect myself.
He quietly fixes an intense gaze on me, but my tears just won't stop coming.
"Shit..." I mumble, as they uncontrollably flood my face.
"It's okay, Y/N...come here." He tells me, extending his arms out sleepily for an embrace.
"N-No!" I whisper loudly, quickly getting off the bed.
He gives me an odd look.
"I-I'm fine." I tell him more calmly.
"Obviously you're not. Tell me what's wrong." He asks, slight irritation in his tone.
I bite my bottom lip and stare at him, as he waits for a response.
"I shot you...and ran away." I tell him slowly.
"Bad dream then?" He sighs, getting off the bed and walking towards me.
I stare down at the ground as he lifts my chin up to stare at him.
"Would you do that to me?" He asks, gazing into my eyes.
"Never." I answer.
"Then you have nothing to worry about..." He says softly, stroking my hair.
"There are so many things I have to worry about Sherlock, can't you see?" I brush his hand away from my hair and glare up at him.
"Like what?"
"Are you serious Sherlock? There's William, you, Moriarty, and...m-my drug."
"Sorry, what was the last one?"
"Nothing, I'm gonna go freshen up." I say, quickly running to the bathroom.
I've been enduring my craving for the drug all this time.
My custom drug.
It doesn't have a name -- it doesn't need one.
Moriarty was the only one who could supply me with it.
I quickly lock the door and start gagging and choking out nothingness in the toilet.
I need it.
I feel disgusting without it.
"Y/N?"
"What?" I croak.
"What's wrong, are you alright?"
"I'm okay!" I choke.
"Open the door, let me help you."
"No..."
I don't want him to see me like this...
"Y/N, open the door...NOW."
His voice becomes muffled, as he bangs on the door and yells for me to open it.
My vision becomes blurry, and I collapse onto the cold tiled floor, passing out.
