TW: Blood, SH, OD, pills, attempted suicide


Dark P.O.V

Link would come to the table and eat with me at least once a day. I was glad he was trying. 

I was still up all night every night, though. My thoughts would get the best of me and I would break down.

"D-Dark? What's wrong?" Link muttered sleepily.

"I'm- I'm sorry, I didn't-t mean to wake you." He sat up and let the covers slide down his chest.

"No, I don't care about that. Why are you crying?"

"I was just thinking about - you know..."

"Aww, Dark. I'm not going anywhere!"

"I know, I know... I'm just so scared."

"I know."

He crawled into my lap and wrapped his arms around my neck.

"You're alright... I'm here, right here. Do you feel me?" I nodded. "Right. I'm right here. I'm not going anywhere." 

He did this almost every night. I would do this almost every night.

Something in me didn't believe him, though. I couldn't stand my own mind anymore. 


He wasn't okay, and I had done this to him. It hurt to see him like this. I didn't know how to help him other than just being there with him. I hoped that would be enough.

When I woke up, he wasn't there. It was 7 am, and an hour ago he woke up to "go to the bathroom."

I rushed out of the room and tried to open the bathroom door. Locked.

"Dark!"

I kicked the door down. I froze.

The floor was covered in blood and pills. Dark was slumped over against the wall. 

I carefully ran over to him. 

"Dark? Dark, please!"

Dark's eyelids fluttered as he hummed.

"Hey, L-Link..." He muttered.

"W-what did you do?!" I cried.

"I'm- *cough* *cough* I'm making your life easier."

"No, no! I'm calling 911!"

"There's no- no need for that."

"You'll die!"

"That's kind of the point..." He coughed.

I rushed to grab my phone and called 911. 

"911, what's your emergency?"

"My- My fiance is bleeding- bleeding everywhere. Pl-lease, help him!"

"Woah, slow down. What happened?"

"His- His arms. He cut-t them. He took, um, pills. A-alot."

"Ok sir, we'll track your call and be right there."

I hung up. I ran back to Dark and broke down in sobs in the pool of blood surrounding us.

"Dark, w-why did you-u do this?"

"The pills... they help me. The blood... I'm hel-lping you. You don't hav-ve to worry about me anymore."

"I don't wa-ant this! I w-want you, Dar-rk!"

"Hm."

The ambulance arrived and the paramedics busted in. They took him away all too fast.

"W-wait! I'm coming with you."
