Marbles ~ Sae-byeok

Tw- mention of death

Sae-byeoks pov-

"I'm so sorry Y/n... I never should have picked you" I lower my head not wanting to meet her eyes. The thought of only one of us getting out of this game is tearing me to pieces.

"Dont be sorry, maybe it was meant to end this way" She chuckles. 

I hold the marbles tight in my fist, I hated this.

"Still, if you went with someone else maybe we would both live!" 

"I know but there's nothing we can do now" Her voice cracks and hearing her scarred aches even more.

"We only have 10 minutes, let's play" She stands and extends her hand for me, I sigh and accept her gesture bringing myself off the ground as well.

We both agree on me going first, the game she came up with was to see who can get their marble close to the wall.

I launch the marble across the ground, it was close to the wall but still far enough for Y/n to have a chance.

She looks at me and moves to where I was standing. Taking a deep breath she looked as if she was going to throw it but instead drops it at her feet.

My heart drops, tears developing. 

"What are you doing" I lightly grab her shoulders and force her to look at me.

She gives me a weak smile, I don't want that smile to leave yet.

"You won... I lost" She sighs. Anger gets the best of me and I throw her against a wall.

"What do you mean? are you serious, take another shot!?" I shout at her, a few tears fall down my cheeks.

"Even if I did I still wouldn't win, just let me lose in style" She murmurs, her eyes are glossy and she bites her lower lip trying to hold back her tears.

"Y/n are you crazy I can't lose you!"

"And I can't lose you Sae-byeok! I know it will be hard but you still have more to do in this world" Her voice raised slightly.

"But- but I need you... Please Y/n" my voice is no longer steady and I feel my body grow heavy.

"Hey... it's going to be ok. You are the strongest person I know Sae, your brave, and powerful yet still so caring and gracious" She smiles at me once more. 

I wrap my arms around her and bury my face into the side of her neck.

"Please don't go...." I beg. She tightens the hug but with me being so distracted by the thoughts of her being gone she manages to slip her bag of marbles into my pocket.

"Guard... she won" I hear Y/n call as she pulls away from the hug.

My face falls to complete horror, looking at her still smiling face is crushing me. I feel the guard tug at my arm in an attempt to pull me away, I try my best to stop him and squirm free from his grip but it's no use... I'm too weak.

"No, please... I haven't finished saying goodbye!!! let me say goodbye!!!" I break down as the guard continues to pull me away from Y/n.

"Kang Sae-byeok" Y/n yells from her standing position, I lift my head a bit.

"I just want to say... I love you" Even from here I can hear the pain in her voice, the sound of me and her crying was quickly interrupted by a loud bang followed by a thud on the ground.

I made the worst mistake, lifting my head and looking at her now lifeless body on the ground. Even from a distance, I can see the blood begin to pool around her.

She was gone.... because of me

The guard pulls me back to the main room, I no longer fight it and instead, my body goes limp. Walking in I see Sang-Woo staring off into space meaning... Ali.

Y/n and Ali were the best of friends yet they never said goodbye to each other. Looking around the rest of the room I can't seem to find Gi-hun or the old man yet but I do see the man that Ji-Yeong teamed up with.

'Why is everyone leaving me'

I hobble slowly off to my bed and curl up to a ball, hiding my face under my arms. Thinking of all the moments me and Y/n shared while in these twisted games. 

Y/n is the reason I made it so far in these games, her encouraging words, her warming smile, her comforting hugs... all of it and now it was gone all the happy memories she managed to bring whilst in a time of such ruining and disbelief.

"Sae-byeok" The voice next to me sounds gloomy and guilty.

I turn over and see Gi-hun standing beside my bed which must mean the old man is gone too.

"Arnt you going to come to eat?" I shake my head no, I felt if I ate right now I may be sick.

"Sae-byeok, I know it's hard and this probably isn't what you want to hear right now but... Y/n did this for a reason, she sees the potential in you and didn't want you to be leaving so many people behind that need you" He takes a seat next to me.

I know that the things he was saying to me were true, it all sounded like Y/n but the fact that I met someone who was willing to sacrifice themselves for me and I didn't even get a chance to save them. 

Gi-hun pulls me into a supportive hug, I really needed it and I think he did too.

"I didn't even get to say I love her back" I force out, my voice is dry and drained.

"Shhhh... I know" He tightens the hug, he is a great father figure.

I don't know how I will do this without her.. but for her, I have to.
