5 hours.....
It's been five fucking hours since it happened...
And I have been staring at my phone since, waiting for a call...
Waiting for him to call, to tell me this was all some sick joke...
Yeah it probably was, I mean it's just like him to pull stupid pranks like this, because there is no way what happened was real.
Or maybe...
Just maybe that was all in my head...
It must've been, he always told me I was delusional anyways, it has to be another one of my delusions...
Maybe I am asleep and this is all just a dream?
But then why?
Why did it feel so real?
My eyes sting from crying so much and from staring at my phone screen.
My throat hurts from screaming for hours.
My ears have been ringing non-stop.
I feel like throwing up.
I have been pulling my hair so much that my head started pounding.
No.
No there is no way this is a dream...
This is a fucking nightmare.

Suddenly my thoughts are interrupted by the sound of my phone ringing. I grab it immediately picking up without even bothering to look at the caller ID.

"Hello?"

I cringe at the coarseness of my voice. I sound like I have been stuck in the desert for years without drinking a drop of water, which makes sense because I certainly do feel like this is the case. But it's okay... he must've called to explain. I eagerly close my eyes, waiting for his voice to speak against my ear, and somehow magically fix everything.

But instead of his voice, I hear a robotic one.

"This is the IRS department, and we are calling to inform you that the owner of this number has about $3000 due for taxes, you must pay this amount immediately or a warrant will be issued for your arrest."

....

A scam...

You gotta be fucking kidding me.

I hang up and throw my phone in frustration.

He is not going to call...
And I need to fucking grow up.
But it hurts, it really does.
I did everything that I could, sacrificed so much, did nothing but give...
And in the end, this is what I get.

I grab a pillow, shove my face against it, and start screaming again, not caring about how much my throat burns.

Should I just kill myself?

Yeah, that will probably make everything easier...

I mean it's not like I have anybody to cry over me now that he is gone.

I am all alone.

Ha. Who am I even kidding? Even if all of this is true, I know that I am too much of a coward to do it anyways...
Let's just stick to crying myself to sleep for now.

END OF TW: ANGST AND MENTIONS OF SUICIDE.
———————————————————————-

I am falling...
I am falling fast...
I hear several voices that I don't recognize yell desperately at me...
I feel a severe ache in my chest, like I have been stabbed...

Cold...
Why is it so cold?
I feel wind pushing up against me with so much force as if it's trying to pick me up.
How long have I been falling for?
Where am I falling from?
Where am I falling to?

Suddenly a warm embrace surrounds me and I stop falling.
However, the yelling doesn't stop, in fact, it increases and grows more desperate.
I try to understand what the voice says but I just can't...

"...se...ay....ith...e"

What?

"...lease....tay...ith me...!"

Honey, what?!

"Please stay with me!"

What is even going on?

"Just hang on a little longer! I promise I will save you!"

Hang on? Save me?

Am I dying?

Wait- no way...DID I ACTUALLY KILL MYSELF IN MY SLEEP?!?!?

Bruh.

"DON'T YOU DARE DIE ON ME! PLEASE!"

The voice then starts sobbing. And I feel warm droplets fall on my face.

"This is all my fault...I should have protected you..."

I try to open my eyes, but all I see is blurriness
Oh-
I must be dreaming, then.
I always have these sort of dreams where I can't seem to fully open my eyes...
I hate this type of dreams.

Before I knew it, it suddenly grows quiet and the warm embrace is gone.

Instead, everything goes white and I hear a voice calling me from far away.

I recognize that this was one of the voices calling out to me earlier.

"....me..."
"Save me..."
"Please save me."

Wait I thought I was the one being saved?

"The bad guys caught me."
"You are different, I am sure you can save me."

I am what now?
Different, huh?
Well, guess I am not like the other girls...hehe.
...Sorry, go on.
Wait- Who are you again?

"I beg you. You must find me."

Ok. Ok. Fine.
I'll find you.

I promise...

With that, the voice seems to relax, and then I hear what seems like...

Snoring?!

It seems like whoever was speaking, immediately went off to sleep after I reassured them.

Mood.

🥀

-"Diavolo, are you sure this is a good idea?"

-"Well, of course, my dear Lucifer, I think this will definitely be the best way to strengthen the relationship between the three worlds. Right, Barbatos?"

-"Whatever you say, young master."

-"See Lucifer, even Barbatos agrees."

-"I don't think that sounded like an agreement, Diavolo."

Where am I...?

-"Oh look! The human is awake! Isn't this exciting?"

The human?

Who the hell even says that?!

I slowly open my eyes, and find myself sitting on a fancy chair in a place that looks like a courtroom. Several men are looking my way.

The man sitting in the seat of the chief judge starts speaking.

"Welcome to the Devildom, (Y/N)."

...

TO THE WHAT?!
