10pm
I woke up and gasped. Well that was a good nights sleep gone for today. I went downstairs to get a drink when I heard whispers and crying.

* It's all my fault...it hurts...please stop...

It was Dust. Nightmare was right by his side, comforting him before casting a spell to get Dust to fall asleep. He sighed.

* Can I help you.

I jumped in surprise, he knew I was there the whole time?!

* O-Oh no! Sorry...I was just getting a cup of water.

* Mhm, sure.

I went to grab a glass cup and poured some water. My hands shook...I could barely pick the cup up. I sighed in frustration.

* I guessed you were going to come down eventually so I made you a cup of hot chocolate.

He signalled for me to come and sit down and so I did. He handed me the hot chocolate. I stared at him.

* Ask away.

* What?

* I'll answer any questions you have, within reason.

I took a sip of the warm beverage, it was nice.

* Why did you show me to stay when you knew I was part of the opposing side?

* You needed help, and we both know Dream wouldn't give you that.

* Wh- I don't need h-

* Sure you don't. When was the last time you had a break? The last time you slept for more than five hours? The last time you didn't hurt yourself?

I froze.

* I'll ask you a question. Why.

* W-Why?

* Why did you do it Blue.

* That's none of your concern!

He held my hand to remove my glove but I pushed him off.

* Blue you can tell me.

* I...I don't need to tell you anything!

It was clear to me now that Nightmare wasn't keeling me here to be nice, he felt bad that I had gone through a lot. I was such a doormat.

I got up to leave when he grabbed me with his tentacle and forced me back in the seat.

* Dust went through one hell of a life and it took him weeks before he told me his story. It haunts him everyday but having someone there...having some to know may him feel a little bit better Blue. You can tell me, and I swear no matter what it won't go anywhere else.

He looked straight into my eyes. I had no choice.

* I was raped.

I immediately looked down, my heart began to race in panic. I didn't want to remember it all again...

* Is that what caused the cutting?

* No..

* So what did?

I couldn't answer him, I could barely breathe.

Please get the memories out of my head..
I can't take it anymore...
I won't go away...

Blue began to gasp for air as the tears rolled down his face. I had to find out what happened if I wanted to help him in any way.
