"Please don't leave..." (Little Nightmares/Mono x Seven/School AU)

~All Your Fault~

Everything... it was all your fault. You're so worthless, pathetic, ugly, useless.
Mono held the blade in his shaking hand.
Just do it!
B-but I promised Seven...
So what? He'll never find out if you cover it up.
I... I guess that's true...
So go on... cut.
Mono pressed the blade to his skin and winced as the stinging sensation as he dragged it down his arm.
Go on, again. One cut for each of your flaws.
Mono continued while tears filled his eyes, and regret wrapped its way around his stomach. He tried so hard to stop himself, but it felt like he couldn't.
Go on! You're doing so well!
But... Seven will hate me...
He won't notice. As long as you hide it.
Suddenly, Mono felt something tugging at his trouser leg. He turned around and saw Dio at his feet. Mono began shaking as his knees crumbled and he fell to the ground. Dio jumped to hug him and snuggled into his stomach.
"I'm... so so... so s-sorry...Seven will hate me..." Mono muttered. Dio chittered. "Of course he'll hate me... I-I promised him I'd stop doing this. I can't even keep a simple promise... I'm so useless..." Dio hit him gently. He chattered at him. (I will translate for you 🤗 "Don't say that about yourself! Seven loves you, no matter what. He can help you with this, and you know he will, since he cares so much about you.")
Mono began to cry. Dio held him in a tight hug as he let him release all of his emotions. Then suddenly, Mono grabbed his arm in pain.
"God it hurts so bad... I wish I never did that..."

TIME SKIP TO LUNCH TIME THE NEXT DAY

Seven grabbed Mono and dragged him to the bathrooms. They sat down together in the same stall they always sat in. Seven noticed Mono seemed... sadder than usual. Normally, when he and Seven were alone Mono would be quite chatty and bright, but he wasn't today.
"Are you feeling alright Mono?"
"Uhm... w-why do you ask?"
"You haven't been yourself today. You seem more quiet. Well- you're usually quiet around people but... when it's just us." Mono stayed silent. "Can you talk to me? Tell me if something is wrong." Mono sighed.
"...you'll hate me for this."
"What? I could never hate you, Mono!" They stared at each other quietly for a while. Then Mono slowly rolled up his sleeve and allowed Seven to see the new cuts he had made on his arm. He heard Seven mumble something, although he couldn't quite make it out.
"So... do you hate me yet?" Mono mumbled.
"No! No no no, I don't hate you! Just..." Seven pulled Mono into a tight hug. He held him close, not wanting to ever let go.
"Sorry..."
"Don't apologise Mono. It's... okay. It's okay."
"But-"
"I said... don't apologise. Let me hold you for a bit... that's all I want."

After a while, Seven pulled back and looked at Mono.
"You're really cute y'know?" Seven muttered.
"H-huh?"
"I said you're cute. If I have to repeat it a hundred times, I will. You're cute!" Mono's face immediately went bright red. "Now... will you let me see that adorable face of yours?" Even Seven was starting to blush now.
"O-okay..." Mono slowly pulled his bag up to reveal his blushing face. Seven pushed some of Mono's hair behind his ears. Mono tried to push back Seven's bangs but he immediately brushed them down again. "Hm? What was that about?"
"Oh n-nothing."
"Got something you don't want me to see?"
"N-no..."
"Then... let me look?"
"...fine." Seven reluctantly agreed. Mono smiled and pushed Seven's hair away from his eyes. He was amazed at what he saw. One of Seven's eyes was bright shiny blue like a sapphire, while the other was a deep grey colour like stormy clouds.
"Woah..." Mono whispered as he stared. He thought it looked beautiful.
"Yeah... my sister has this as well. One of her eyes is grey while the other is red."
"That's so cool!" Mono smiled.
"Really?"
"Of course!" Seven smiled at him. He put his arm around Mono's shoulder and pulled him close.

After a few minutes, Seven stood up.
"I think we should be headed off to class now."
"Wait." Mono stood up too. Seven turned to look at him. Mono got close to Seven's face and used his hands to brush Seven's bangs away so his eyes were completely visible. "Have your hair like that for a bit. You'll be able to see properly for once." Mono chuckled. Seven was blushing.
"Alright..." he muttered as he pushed back the temptations to cover his face again.
Without another word, Mono grabbed Seven's hand and dragged him to their next class.
