Chapter Twenty-Two: Breakdown

"Please don't do that again," Matt pleaded, his voice cracking. I closed my eyes tightly, hoping that once I opened them everything would be fine. "I can't lose you."

I hated that I worried my brother so much, I know it was hurting him seeing me the way I was.

"Something bad is gonna happen, I-I can feel it." I barely get the words out, hyperventilating and shaking so bad I can barely keep myself up. I felt so cold, my entire body shivered even in my black hoodie and sweatpants.

"I know you feel scared, but please don't hurt yourself. I fucking love you, and so do they." Matt clutched onto me a little tighter, and he lifted me off of the floor and back onto the bed. He covered me up with a blanket, made me take my meds and stayed with me the entire night.

L made some calls, the boys barely took their eyes off of me. They basically put me on fucking suicide watch, every move I made had them concerned. I started to calm down when my medication hit me, the tears were starting to dry and I cried so much I almost puked. The drowsiness took over, and it was getting so late I was about to fall asleep at any moment.

"Willow," Nears small frame leaned down to look at me, and my bloodshot eyes looked right back. Mello was staring daggers at him, glaring from across the room but not saying a word. "Do you want to do coffee in the morning? I will bring over some and I have a puzzle we can do together."

"Yeah, we can do that. That sounds nice." I replied with a smile, the cracking in my voice getting worse.

He's trying to help, and I appreciate that so much.

"Great, I'll see you in the morning then. Goodnight, Wil." Nears voice was soft and kind, and he smiled back at me. He never really called me Wil like everyone else did, so that was a shock to me. I didn't like being called that at first, it just sounded like a boys name. But I grew to kinda like it.

L took off not too long after, he said goodnight to me and even tucked me in like a parent would. Matt took all of my knives, and I even had some throwing stars that I thought were cool. He hid them, and then made himself a little makeshift bed on the floor. Mello came over to me, laying down and covering himself up. I laid towards the wall, and once he got comfy I curled up on his chest so I could sleep.

"I have something to give you tomorrow, I think you'll like it." Mello said, wrapping his arms around me. Our heart beats synced, and he was so warm and comforting.

"This is plenty, you don't have to give me anything."

"Well I'm going to, you deserve it. I wanna make you happy." He whispered, squeezing me a little tighter.

"You already do, Mels. Just..keep doing this, please."

"I promise I will, but you have to promise you won't hurt yourself."

"I..I won't." My tone was tired, and I was slowly dozing off.

"Matty, I love you. Love you both." I said before slowly falling asleep in Mello's arms.

I slept for a few hours, and both Mello and Matt were fast asleep. When I looked over at the clock, it was three am and I had woken up in a panic. My hand placed on my chest, and my breathing heavy. My heart was beating out of my chest, and I was feeling disoriented. My body shivered, I assumed it was Matt who forgot to fully close the window.

The curtains were flowing from the breeze, and the entire room felt like an ice box. It was almost pitch black, aside from a small night light I had plugged in. My eyes were adjusted to the dark, and I peered down at a sleeping Mello and Matt.

"Matt," I spoke, trying to wake him up. Nothing. "Matty, you left the window open." I said a little louder this time, sighing as I tried to get out of bed. I crawled over Mello who didn't even budge, which was unlike him. If I even shifted the other way he'd wake up and pull me in again. As I stood up, dizziness took over and the room began to spin. It felt like I was drunk almost, although I hadn't had any alcohol. I wobbled to the window, the slight breeze hitting me.

I couldn't keep myself up right, I figured that my medication was making me this groggy, as it does sometimes. But that felt different, and I was starting to feel sick again. I held myself up on the window stool, trying to keep myself from falling to the ground.

"Matt, wake up. I-I don't feel good." I stuttered, turning around and breathing heavily. I wobbled over to Matt, falling down next to him. I shook him, he was breathing but unconscious.

"Matty something's wrong, please wake up." A few tears fell from my eyes, and my vision was starting to go.

From the bathroom, I heard dark chuckling from the darkness. Quiet footsteps approached, and I tried my best to stand back up. My legs were jello, and I crawled my way to the door as quickly as I could. When I finally got the strength to stand and open the door, my legs gave out. I looked out only to see the guard unconscious on the ground, and pure darkness.

"Nobody's going to help you, you'll pass out any moment now. It's fun to see you struggle, little Willow." His voice sent chills down my spine, and I couldn't even muster up the energy to scream. My throat shut, and I felt his body slowly approach me. Desperately, I tried to crawl away but it failed. My teeth clenched, trying my goddamn best to stay awake.

"E-eat shit and die, asshole."

His eyes glistened in the moonlight, and his dark clothes made him blend in just like a shadow. He was clean, and his evil smirk made the panic in me rise. He held a syringe in his hands, a few droplets falling to the ground. Whatever he drugged me with was strong, but not strong enough to kill me.

He drugged everyone, that's why nobody would wake up. At the time, I was so scared that they were going to die, that I was going to die. If I was, there was absolutely nothing I could do to prevent it. I had no fight in me, and this time he was going to win.

He stood over me, looking down at the weak girl below him trying to get away. When he grabbed my legs to pull me back in, I kicked as hard as I could in my drugged state, and all it did was make him laugh manically. The drugs were kicking in hard, and my consciousness was slowly fading away. Before I passed out, the last thing I seen was my brother and Mello in my view.

This might be the last time, I love you both so much.

And then everything went black.
