- Opal. We need to talk.
After a long silence from both, Cameron suddenly speaks up. Opal hugs her pillow and is completely absorbed in this activity. And yet..
- We are going to the hospital tomorrow.
Opal jumps on place and hides her face. For a moment it seems like she was about to burst, but stood calm.
- And why is that?..
- I'm sure it will help you put your thoughts on place..
- Are you calling me insane?
- Both of us insane.
- Right... - Opal looks at him in disgust, eyes a bit tearing up.
Both remained silent again, Cameron wasnt sure what to do, he thought of what happened over the course of the week..One day Opal would overdose, other days she starved herself. Not only she needs therapy but physical health and care.
She has learned how to stay healthy from Cameron, self-care and cooking meals.. Listening to his advice without any doubt is a way to show mutual respect they have for eachother. However there are things that she cannot do, no matter the person.She keeps refusing what she learned, because of morals clashing all the time. Whenever Opal hurts Cameron for her own amusement, it becomes painful to do, as guilt swallows her.
- It will go away... Now let's sleep together, darling♡
- You didn't have a proper meal.. Did you forget our schedule?
- N-no of course I remember!
- You don't.. - Cameron lets out a sigh, Opal continues.
- You... You dont tell me what to do! Even though I was listening to you, that was only my choice!
Opal is beggining to get louder and louder with every word she speaks out.- You chose to follow a stable daily routine and now you suddenly change your morals!
- It's funny how you call drinking 'blood and wine' stable! If you want me to be "normal" put me in a restrain room, call my guardians, force me drink this useless medicine that DOES NOT HELP!
Opal forcefully falls of bed, trying to hurt herself out of spite, she does that all the time. Cameron reacted quickly to pick her up before she falls.
- Don't do that!! Opal you'll get hurt!
- It doesnt matter.. Its only fair, I hurt you more than this..
- Its only pleasure to feel every single bite of yours on my body..
Cameron embraced her and started kissing her cheek and neck, stroking her hair and calming her down, like a child. Opal pulls him away slightly, but it doesn't work, she gets comfortable.
- and I love.. that murderous gaze on me.
- Cameron.. stop it...
Hand in hand, they lay on the fallen off bed blanket. Cameron continues to pat Opal's head, leaning really close. He kisses her cheeks and forehead again and looks her in the eyes.
Opal leans closer to him in response, giggling.- We are crazy, darling..
- We are..
