Tw: suicide attempt

Kokichis pov

I stared down at the river that would soon be my grave. This is it. After all the terrible shit I pulled I can can finally go to hell where I belong. I sure that will make the others happy. Or maybe they'll hate me more since they'll have to go through another class trail. Either way I can't back out now. I closed my eyes and threw myself into the lake.

I could feel the icy water fill my lungs. I couldn't breathe. My chest was burning. My whole body was completely numb. It hurt and I was cold but it was strangely comferting. Finally my worthless life can come to an end.

I woke up on the cold hard floor. I figure stood above me.

"am I in hell?" I muttered.

"What you consider me the devil after saving your life? Rude!"

"kaito!" I sat up in shock. I immediately had a coughing fit.

"careful dumbass you need to rest! You nearly drown!" kaito said rubbing my back. I saw his wet hair and immediately understood why I'm still alive.

"why the hell did you save me!" I yelled angrily.

"wha- is this the thanks I get for saving your life you ungrateful shit" kaito growled.

"thank you? I wanted to die you idiot!"

He looked at me in disbelief. I guess he must have thought I fell in accidentally or something. Maybe now he'll stop trying to act like the hero!

"I see" he grabbed his jacket off the floor and wrapped it around me. It was so big that it covered my whole body "here. Wouldn't want you catching cold now would we?"

"tch!" I looked away from him feeling angry at myself. Can't even succeed at killing yourself can you?

Kaito looked at me with a steady gaze "it was about gonta wasn't it?" my eyes widened. How is he able to read me so well? "I still don't know why you lied about it. you do realise that you could have grieved his death with the rest of us. No one would have thought less of you for it"

I didn't answer. I just hugged my knees.

Kaito sighed "you dumbass" he patted my head "everyone's having a hard time in this murder game. You don't have to lie to hide your true feelings. Your not alone in this"

I looked up at him in shock. I'm not alone? But shuichi said I was. Was that a lie too?

He stood up "you can keep my jacket. And come to me when you have problems like that. Don't you ever take it into your own hands again!" with that he walked away.

I looked back at the lake. I could just jump back in but the lake was so cold and kaitos jacket was so warm. I didn't want to take it off or get it wet.

I ended up going back to bed and using kaitos jacket as a blanket.
