Portal 2: Love or Forever Friendship? [Completed]

"Nightmares. Scary stuff, eh?"

"Don't let go! Hang on!"

Wheatley yells from across a chamber, hiding behind a Companion Cube while a few turrets look around, confused at where he went. He peeks at them, only to be replied with bullets. With a shaky sigh, he carefully gets up in the cover of the Cube, taking a quick breath before sprinting towards a circular structure in the middle. Bullets fly across the room, almost hitting the man as he ducks and slides on the floor.

"Wheatley? Are you okay?!"

A feminine voice yells from inside the circular structure. He gets up, looking inside it and holding out his hand to Chell.

"Be worried about yourself mate! You're practically in the incinerator!"

He reaches his hand down as far as he possibly can, waving it about slightly. His glasses almost fall of his face as he does so, but he doesn't care. He could get new ones. But he couldn't get another best friend.

"Hang on!"

"I've been doing that!"

"Then hang on harder! I can't reach you..."

He says in disappointment. He shakes his head and leans down, holding tightly to the edge.

"C'mon! Grab my hand! I-I can pull you up!"

Chell looks at him with a sad face, but attempts to take his hand, knowing that this plan would fail. Their hands flail in air for a second before connecting, Wheatley straining to pull her up.

"I can't loose you!"

He yells, despite his inability to move. His other hand manages to grasp onto hers, the heat beginning to make it harder to hold each other. Tears stream down both of their faces, Chell being the only one accepting the fact that this day might be her last as she turns her head away. Behind Wheatley, one of the turrets sees him, readying a round of bullets to empty into him. He looks at it, a terrified look on his face. As he looks back, his heart plummets. Her hand slips out of his own, time seeming to slow down as he attempts to grab her...to no prevail.

"NO!"

He yells as he almost falls in himself, forced to watch his best friend get drowned in yellow flames as bullets fly towards him...
