Ed paces in the warehouse, aware that Dark Ed is watching him from the shadows.
"You'll never find anyone ever again. You had your last chance and now it's dead..." He snarls. "Just do it already. Take the rope and climb up to those rafters. You want me gone? Kill yourself."
"I'm scared. I don't wanna do this... " Ed whimpers.
"DO IT!!!!" Dark Ed bellows.
Ed takes a deep breath and grabs the rope. He climbs the ladder to the rafters and ties the rope to a beam. He then fashions a noose and prepares to place it around his neck.
"Don't!" Oswald gasps. Ed looks down, knowing full well that it's not real.
"I don't have a choice... He's in my head you should know that you're there too!" Ed sobs. "I'm so sorry, Oswald. Maybe in another world. We could've been together. But it didn't work out and now... I'm just really sorry." Ed murmurs hoarsely.
"Ed, please. This... This is wrong! I love you! I can't allow you to do this! Ed, I know you! You're stronger than this, you'd never even consider taking your own life!!! You can't do this, please... Please!" Oswald pleads, voice breaking. Ed moves his foot forward, ready to jump. Ready to end it all. "No!!!! Edward!!! Please!!! I'm sorry, I'm sorry for killing Isabella!!! Okay?!!! Just... Please!!!" Oswald falls to his knees, sobbing. He realizes that Ed thinks he's a hallucination. "Ed, you are my best friend. I love you. This will be the cold-blooded murder of someone you love!" Oswald yells.
Ed stares down at Oswald, slowly realizing that Oswald's.... Alive. And standing there in front of him
"Oswald!" is Ed's only reaction."You are weak... No wonder you couldn't live without him." Dark Ed taunted, but Ed doesn't hear him. His head is buzzing, trying to process the reality of Oswald's survival.
"You're alive..." He sighs.
"Oh, Oswald. I love you, baby..." Ed smiles dreamily like he's drugged with some sort of really nice pain killers from a hospital. Ed tears the rope from his neck and races down the ladder to Oswald.
Once safe on the ground, Ed is greeted by Oswald's emotions. Oswald throws his arms around Edward, squeezing tight, holding him close, flush against his body. Oswald cries inconsolably, holding on to his beloved."Edward Nygma! How could you pull something like that?! I almost lost the love of my life back there!!!" Oswald sobs.
Ed barely notices, just takes a moment to thank God that Oswald's alive.
"You're alive... Thank God, I missed you. Your hair, your eyes, your little beak, your clothes, just all of you... I missed your beautiful heart most of all... So beautiful!" Ed gasps in joy. He gazes down at Oswald, still in awe of him. "I love you, too..." He whispers hoarsely.
"I always had a hunch..." Oswald gasps silently, crying tears of pure joy. Ed smiles dreamily at his darling Oswald. Suddenly, Ed finds himself leaning towards Oswald's face, their lips meeting with a surprising warmth that sends delicious shivers down Oswald's spine. Ed runs his fingers through Oswald's silken black hair, enjoying the kiss. By the time they pull away, they're breathless. Oswald smiles happily at his love, never wanting This moment to end.
"You were scared." Ed murmurs hoarsely.
"Of course I was! The love of my life was up on the rafters with a rope around his neck!" Oswald gasps in horror.
Ed's tears return with a vengeance. "You still love me? Even after what I did? You can't... I'm a monster..." Ed sobs.
"You're my little Monster, my love. I'll never stop loving you." Oswald murmurs sweetly. Ed sobs some more, pulling Oswald back into his arms.
"Never leave my arms ever again!" Ed gasps.
"Okay..." Oswald says innocently, rubbing Ed's back in a gentle caress.
"I love you, Baby... Always." Ed says, pulling Oswald closer.
The end!!! I hope you enjoyed the read!!!
