Kidnapped

Chapter 121: I Couldn't Take It Anymore

Karl POV

As I hear knocking at my office door I quickly wipe away the tears streaming down my face, pausing one of my friends YouTube videos before clearing my throat.

"Come in" I say and the door slowly opens, revealing Sapnap and Quackity.

I immediately turn around in my chair, not wanting to deal with them.

"We wanted to talk" Sapnap says as the door closes behind them.

"We've already spoken"

"I'm sorry about what I said earlier"

"No you're not"

"I am- I shouldn't have pushed you away like that, can we talk?"

"I'm not a priority" I say nonchalantly.

"I know I've fucked up okay? But please just talk to us" he says as he offers a hand out to me.

"And you aren't going to be a dick this time?" I ask as I look at his hand.

"No, I just want to fix this" after a moment I take his hand, allowing him to lead me back into our bedroom.

I let go of his hand immediately, closing the door behind us as we all sit apart on the bed. The sheets were cold.

"Talk, have a go at me for all I care, but I promise I'm not going to" Sapnap says as he raises his hands slightly.

"Fine but I don't want to look at you" I say as I turn to face the wall in front of the bed.

"That's okay, whatever makes it easier for you" he says and the room falls silent.

I was ready to breakdown all over again, but now was my chance to talk. Either way at least I would've said my piece.

I took a breather before closing my eyes. "That night really scared me, I was worried about you both and I felt guilty for not noticing sooner. We didn't have any aftercare that night and I woke up alone. You guys spoke without me there and I feel like I should've been apart of it" I take another deep breath.

"You made all these new rules and I knew none of them, I was just expected to learn them as I went along. You'd go off on your little day trips or night trips and you'd tell me that you guys were healing...and then you'd stop telling me where you were going or what you were doing. You were healing without me and that was just hurting me" my voice breaks slightly but I don't dare look at them.

"I just wanted to hang out with you guys again, and I just wanted you to tell me everything was okay but you never had time for me. So I distanced myself, I stopped coming into our room and I stopped eating with you guys and I just stayed in my office because if you guys were healing then I didn't want to be in the way" I wipe my face as tears threaten to spill but I already know that I'm about to breakdown.

"I couldn't take it anymore...I spoke to George and Dream about it and I stayed with them that night on the sofa. You guys have been making me feel so shitty and then with everything you said today I just couldn't...I didn't want to believe the things you said to me but how could I not?" I hide my face in my hands as I cry, feeling way too vulnerable for my liking.

"I-..I'm so sorry- I didn't know you felt that way, I should have known you wanted to be included. I swear to you I will never leave you out of anything again. I fucked up, I understand that now" Sapnap explains and I can tell by his voice that he was crying too.

"I fucked up too, I should've involved you and I'm sorry it took us this long to see how badly we screwed up. It won't happen again" Quackity adds, he seemed to be crying as well.

"If you're still mad that's okay, I don't mind if you want time or space-"

"Please no more space" I cut him off, finally turning to look at the two.

"Cuddles then? If you're okay with it" Sapnap asks as he outstretches his arms. As much as I was still hurting from everything that had happened I was desperate to be close to them.

I climb over to the side of him, allowing his arm to go around me as my leg rested above his with my arm across his stomach. He held me close to him as the pair of us cried.

"Quackity get us all some water would you? We still have a lot to talk about..and I need some paracetamol for my headache" Sapnap asks. "Yeah, okay" I feel him kiss the back of my head. "I'll be back in a moment" he says before leaving the room.

"Is your headache bad?" I ask as I look up at him.

"It's not too bad but my face stings" he explains.

"What? Why?" I ask as I notice one of his cheeks redder than the other.

"George slapped me" I sit up to look at him better.

"Seriously?" I ask and he nods.

"Why did he hit you?"

"Let's just say it was on your behalf" He smiles and I smile back.

"You deserved it" I say as I settle back on his chest.

"I know"

The door swings open as Quackity places 3 glasses of water and hands Sapnap some paracetamol.

Hopefully now we could move forward and fix our relationship properly.
