I will always be there PART 1

16🥀

"What?"
I say looking at him, his smile was gone and was replaced by a mask. A cracking, shivering mask. Like a porcelain doll in a thunderstorm trying not to smash down on the floor.
His eyes were slightly red as if he was holding back tears.
"Yes. I don't know for how long, a few weeks at least, but we can't communicate to anyone in the meantime. I just-"
He looks away for a moment biting his bottom lip, trying to find his correct words to use.
"I just needed to say goodbye"
Mittens jump onto my bed and I just stand confused.
"C-can you tell me about it?"
I ask as I lead him to the bed.
He sits down and and and try's to keep the tears down.
"It's a theorist group called...VQDC"
I look at him and he looks back at me. His walls were shattering at this point.

"Villain quirk destruction cooperation. It's a group of people that looks to capture, assault and kill people who sees as having. The *villain* side of the quirk spectrum as they say themselves"

I'm in shock, that's actually a thing?
"They got my parents that way..."
He say softly and looks at his hands.
"Seven years ago. I saw the whole thing. it never left my memory :the screams, the blood. There limbs everywhere. It All stayed with me" his voice was so cold but soft it sounded like he was in a trance.  His voice was just blank and...dead.
tears are now running down his face. He sits so confident but his expression was that of a broken man.
I get kneel down in front of him and cup his face stroking my thumbs over his tears.
He puts his own hands on mine. His eyes steer into nothing as his tears blinded him. And eventually,
he started softly sobbing. I do the only thing I can, and carefully drag him down into a warm hug.
He lets it all out, screaming, crying as he cling onto me.
I just sit there and allow him to let it go. Who knows how long he held it in for.
I did not care the slightest if he hurt me in this moment. I just want him to be over the pain and think about me later.
After a few minutes he seems to calm down.
I feel his breath slow down. I stroke his hair and hush him softly.
He looks at me as he drys his eyes with his sleeve.
"Better?"
I say as I stroke his bangs away from his eyes.
He nods and I help him up on the bed. Mittens gets out of his hiding spot and gets in his lap purring for comforting Monoma. I put my arm around him and he lays his head on my shoulder. I get a rush from that and look at him. "Sorry..." he whispers to me and I put my head on his.
"It's alright, I know the feeling way to well"
I say and he looks up at me. His eyes are red and tears are still sliding occasionally down his cheeks. He shuts his eyes and moves closer.
I don't know what to do, is he going to?

He press his forehead against mine. I feel his warm skin. This is suce a weird feeling. Different, Relaxing feeling.
I don't know what's he's doing but, I sure won't stop it. his hands holds my face and soon he just stands up.
"I better go"
He says and gets the card up again.
I grab a hold of his arm and he turns back at me.
"Umm, take this, maybe you will need it"
I say and gives him a few strands of hair. He gives me a soft forced smile and lay it into the white box, there is a click sound and then a purple card gets out.
He takes it up and smile.
"I hope I can use this" and lay it in the black box.
We both walk out on the balcony and he turns to me.
"I sure hope I will see you soon, Shinsou"
"Don't die on me now okey" I say and pull him in for a hug. "I promise"
And by that. He was gone.
