Shuichi POV:

I was sitting on my bed in my dorm room. Thinking. I can't believe Gonta got executed... and I can't believe Kokichi used him like that. I knew he had a twisted personality... but those 2 were always like best friends.

Not to mention how he acted after his execution. He seemed sad... but then his whole mood changed again... I probably shouldn't have said that to him. After all, I have no way of knowing he wasn't faking that mood. It seems like something he would do after all...

I should probably apologize. Or else I'll feel guilt for who knows how long.

I stood up and exited my dorm room locking the door behind me. Didn't have anything valuable in there, but I still don't want anyone in my room while I'm gone. It'd creep me out.

  Now, where is that little liar... I should probably check his dorm room first.

I walked up the dormitory steps and knocked on his door. I was waiting for a few minutes. I was just about to knock again when the door slowly opened. Weird, normally he flings the door open no matter who it is.

"Yes?" The door was fully open now. It had been a day after the whole execution. But he looked weird. His fluffy hair was messy and he looked tired. Not to mention his scarf was pulled over his mouth. His posture was different as well. Not nearly as straight, more slumping then normal.

"O-Oh, Kokichi! Sorry did I wake you?" I asked. There's no way I could have woken him up... It's 4:30 pm! No one sleeps that late normally. So either he didn't sleep last night or he just took a nap. 

He yawned before responding. "Come on in..." He said moving out of the doorway gesturing for me to walk inside. Which I did. Taking in just how messy his room was... and... is that a horsehead?! Wait is that literally Rantaro?! No! Don't be like that Shuichi. He probably has a reason for this word stuff.

"So what did you need?" He asked sitting on his bed which I did the same. I paused before saying anything else.

"Hey listen... about what I said yesterday-" I was cut off by a small chuckle. His normal childish laugh. Im confused. What is he laughing about?

"Oh don't worry about that Saihara-chan..!" He said. Uhm... is he okay? Should I be concerned?

"Hey are you okay..?" I asked. His smile dropped. He wasn't laughing anymore, and his face was serious. Too serious. Did I say something wrong. He looked at the floor now. Like he was trying to find the right words to say.

"No... Of course I'm not okay..! We're in a killing game! And I'm forced to put on this stupid mask! It's just a on going deadly Masquerade!" He stated. Wait... was he... crying? And with how serious his face had looked there's no way those are fake tears! He actually means it!

"I miss Gonta! I didn't want him killed! I didn't! I want this to end! I want all of this to end! I miss Miu too! And Amami-chan! Even Kay-aye-day! And Mom! I miss everyone! I never wanted all of this too happen!" He was raising his voice at this point. He seemed really upset... I've never seen him actually upset. I had no idea what to do.

"K-Kokichi calm down..!" I tried reasoning with him. I went to place my hand on his shoulder but he smacked it away. He was finally looking at me. He was crying. His eyes looked puffy and he seemed like he could pass out at any minute.

"Don't touch me! I don't want you hurt too!" He said after he smacked my hand away. At this point I was panicking! What was I supposed to do! It's clear I can't just leave him like this! But I don't know how I can calm him down! 

So I moved quickly. In a fast motion. Hugging him tightly before he had time to react. He paused for a minute before trying to get away. "Let me go! I don't want you hurt too!" He protested. I snapped right back at him. It's probably best to be assertive with him, since using a calm voice obviously doesn't work. And he's a very argumentative person...

"Just calm down! I'm not going to get hurt! I can take care of myself! And you need to keep yourself together!" I snapped back at him. He didn't say anything in response. He seemed shocked. I've never really acted like this towards him whenever I'm trying to calm him down. Simply since I've never been in this situation.

At this point he was sobbing. Loudly, like you could probably hear it across the room. He was clinging to me tightly while I was just rubbing his back. His head was buried in the crook of my neck.

We stayed like that for a few minutes. He had finally calmed down. I went to try and get him off me but his grip just tightened. "Stay" He demanded. I did as he said. Probably best I stay actually... I have no idea if he's mentally stable. Considering he just calmed down.

He moved his head and nuzzled it into my chest slumping down. Then all of a sudden I felt his arms flop downwards. 

Had he fallen asleep? I mean he did look quite tired...

I laid him down on his bed and was about to exit the room when I heard him mumble. "Don't go..." I sighed and went back over to him. Am I really about to do this? 

I laid down next to him. And slowly drifted asleep. He was clinging to me again. And I was too tired to get him off... I'll just sort everything out whenever I wake up in the morning.
