Author's note: You might wanna get some tissues.

"Four, about last night..." Four cut off Three before he could say anything else.

"I'm a monster." Four's voice was low. Tears started rolling down his face. "I- I hurt you! I hurt everyone!" He cried out.

"Glitchy..." Three whispered.

"I- I hurt Mario! I hurt Meggy! I hurt all of my friends. I- I...I" Four stood up to look at Three, before he choked out a sob. "I even hurt myself..."

"Four..." Three tried to get closer, but Four backed away.

"You hate me... you have to hate me... after all the terrible shit I did..." Four hugged himself.

Four realized something in that moment. He thought back to the first time Three told him the story about his ex... he was acting like them. He didn't want to be like them.

"Maybe... maybe... maybe it's best with we break up." Four looked down, his face felt hot.

"What!?" Three gently grabbed Four's arms, Four didn't deserve him. "Four, it's not your fault I had a panic attack last night."

"I- I still hurt you..." Four's tears welled up again.

Three wiped away his tears. "No, you didn't. You stopped and asked me if I was ok... They wouldn't have done that." Three felt his own tears well up. "Never compare yourself to them. You are better than that."

Four laid his head in Three's chest. "I'm sorry! I'm so, so, sorry." Four sobbed out.

Three was crying was well. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left you alone, my mind was just so overwhelmed that I wasn't thinking right." Three let out a dry laugh. "God, we're both fucked."

They stayed like that, cradling each other's embrace.

On the other side of the door, Mario, Meggy, X, Fm, and Slg4 were listening to the couple.

They were really going to have to find that asshole.
